Chapter 171 Flip
"General?" The subordinates on the left and right are waiting for him to give an order, since Zheng Wanghai has shown his face, it is definitely impossible to let the two palace maids have a chance to live, but it is definitely not the best strategy to do it in this granary at the moment.
The fourth man in black is also sure of this point and will put his attitude out.
Seeing that a fierce battle was about to begin, the people watching the wind outside the warehouse rushed in and shouted: "The torches are soaring to the sky at the foot of the mountain, and the Royal Forest Army is going to search the mountain." β
"So fast!"
I thought it would take at least half an hour to search the mountain, after all, he was already in the imperial city, and he was suspicious of letting people pretend to run away with the captured children to attract attention. But Shen Tingnian is not easy to deceive, and the emperor is even more difficult to deceive.
Now that they heard that the Imperial Forest Army had searched the mountain, everyone immediately became nervous, and Zheng Wanghai immediately made a decision, "Withdraw first and go to Beiyuan!" β
The fourth man in black turned around to look at Xu Ruoxian and Xiao Youchun, and told himself with a keen premonition: With these two people dragging them, they will finish sooner or later-
But now they don't care, they have seen what they shouldn't see.
"One person with one, see you in Beiyuan."
He ordered the second and third men to quickly put away their knives, and the three of them ran to the front of the warehouse, and the strange moment was dull, the second guy first took the shot to pick up Xiao Youchun and left, and then the third man bent down to carry the boss of the man in black, and the fourth came first but had no choice in the end.
No matter how smart Xu Ruoxian is, he is only an eleven-year-old girl, and it doesn't weigh much to hold the child, but when he threw it on his back, the fourth man in black took a heavy breath.
Heavy responsibilities are always inhabitable.
"Can't let them burn the granary!"
As soon as Xu Ruo's gossip came out, Zheng Wanghai had already arranged for the people to be broken, and he led the two people to follow the fourth man in black.
"I can't care so much......"
The fourth said this, and his footsteps also ran in the other direction.
Seeing his direction, the hidden guard hurriedly made a mark, and then rushed towards the pseudo-guards who were trying to set fire to the granary.
After a short fight, Zheng Wanghai left two of the three people who died and one fled, but the fire was also burning, and the secret guard weighed the pros and cons, and chose to catch up with the little prince first.
Fortunately, the fire did not burn into the various cellars, only some old grain piled up outside, and Shu Tai, who rushed over, led the people to start fighting the fire, and it was extinguished after a while.
###
After it was completely dark, it was pitch black in the mountains and forests, and at this time, the black-clothed people from the mountains and forests had a chance to breathe.
That's what they like the most, hiding in a tree and you're hard to find even if you're within reach of him.
Zheng Wanghai almost didn't keep up several times, and secretly scolded this bandit for deliberately trying to get rid of him.
The fourth man in black also secretly scolded in his heart that Zheng Wanghai would definitely wait for the opportunity to snatch the child, there was an end to the night, but their road seemed to never run - Xu Ruoxian could feel that the little prince was sleeping very uncomfortable, if it weren't for some calming remnants in the water that melted the caramel candy, he must have asked Shen Tingnian to sleep in his arms at this time, and the most unfortunate thing was that the emperor came up, anyway, he recognized people very much at night.
"After going down the mountain in front, you have to go to the left road, and I have arranged for someone to pick you up!" Someone has a horse, and he can only run fast, Zheng Wanghai shouted after him, but the fourth child only cared about running wildly and didn't listen to it at all.
At this time, Zheng Wanghai couldn't bear it anymore, and he couldn't lose time, so he beckoned his two subordinates to speed up directly to catch up, and drew their swords one after another.
Xu Ruoxian only vaguely saw a swept knife light, in the thick ink-like forest, frightened, the man carrying her seemed to have seen everything through her eyes, flashing left and right, avoiding the edge, and then leaped quickly, briefly pulled out a hand to throw out a row of darts.
One of the three people who pursued him made a sullen sound, obviously hit - the fourth put Xu Ruoxian down in front of a tree, and he hit two and a half, which was not impossible.
When Zheng Wanghai saw him stop, he immediately raised his hand to stop the two subordinates who were about to pounce on him, but he still didn't give up: "Give the child to us, you go and run for your life, we promise not to-"
"Lots of words!"
The position chosen by the fourth child could not even penetrate the moonlight, Zheng Wanghai only felt that his voice had not fallen, a gust of wind blew, he had not seen the other party's shadow clearly, the blade of the sword was close to the point, the body dodged according to instinct, and after jumping away with a very extreme jump, the heavy smell of blood dispersed after the two muffled sounds.
Zheng Wanghai's two subordinates fell one after the other.
It was only at this moment that he saw that this bandit, whom he had underestimated, was using not a sword at his waist, but two daggers.
The situation reversed in an instant, Zheng Wanghai raised his knife to fight, and his momentum opened and closed, after all, he was fighting on the battlefield and crawling out, and his hard kung fu foundation was thick, and the fourth child was trembling with his arms several times by his strong strength.
His dexterity gradually declined due to excessive consumption, but Zheng Wanghai became more and more courageous.
And they were anxious, Xu Ruoxian had already quietly hidden in another short and clumped shrub with Brother Zhan in his arms, fortunately, the jumpsuit that Xiao Youchun wore for him today was still covered with a lotus canopy, which would not be poked by the branches, she carefully held his chin on her neck, and the warm little breathing made her whole person more calm and calm.
If only I could survive until dawn like thisβ
After Zheng Wanghai shook the old four away again, he didn't want to delay any longer, and the blade of the knife turned and came towards the place where Xu Ruoxian was hiding, because his ears were extremely sharp, and he could hear the trajectory of Xu Ruoxian's footsteps clearly.
The fourth flew up to catch up, and finally gave up the hand-to-hand attack with a dagger in both hands, and instead drew the sword at his waist, but before they could fight a few more moves, there was a faintly jumping torch in the distance marching towards them, obviously the emperor led the Imperial Forest Army to catch up.
"The pursuers are coming, why don't you leave quickly!" Zheng Wanghai didn't expect this man to have such strong willpower, and he refused to give up after being pressed and beaten by him.
"Huh." The fourth let out a disdainful sneer.
"You-" Zheng Wanghai had no choice, no one could survive when the pursuers came up, he took the lead in collecting the knife, "Hurry up first-who is it!" β
He keenly heard some strange noises, and then the scabbard was thrown out towards the place where the sound came from, and the secret guard who was discovered just in time dodged the attack, and he didn't stop raising his sword and went up, but Zheng Wanghai reacted very quickly and raised his hand again to throw a dart out of the bushes where Xu Ruoxian was hiding, which was intercepted by him when the fourth child attacked him before.
Attack the enemy, and save it.
The 'ding' blade slammed into the dart with a screeching sound.
This delay, the fourth child picked up Xu Ruoxian on his back, and then ran into the distance regardless of it, Zheng Wanghai saw that he would be stopped by the secret guards, and he also ran away, and when he realized that this matter was going to fail.
He finally came up with a killer move, and pressed the secret stab on his sleeve towards the fleeing fourth, three short arrows faster than any of them.
The dark guard threw out his sword and couldn't catch up, so he could only chase forward desperately, "Be careful! β
It is the place where the enemy must be saved, killing two birds with one stone, Zheng Wanghai flew away in the opposite direction, thinking that the palace maid would definitely die.
Xu Ruoxian turned around when she heard this, and at that moment, she was thinking, can her body block these arrows? - If only she had grown up.
'Ding' β 'Poof'
This is the first time Xu Ruoxian has seen the blood light so really, even if the night is dark, she still sees it, because blood is splashed under her eyes.
The fourth child was hit by the impact of the arrow and his feet were soft, fortunately the place arrived, he fell down without strength, it turned out that there was no road behind here, it was a low cliff, they even dug so many secret passages, how could they not survey the escape route
Xu Ruoxian kept her eyes open during the process of her whereabouts, and she was so incredulous that her beliefs from childhood to adulthood were shaken.
Just now, when she thought she was going to die, this man turned around and blocked the arrows with a dagger in his left and right hands, and the remaining one, which could only be eaten on his stomach.
How ironic, the person who saved her and the little prince in the end was a bandit.
When he was about to fall to the bottom, the fourth child stuck the dagger into the crack of the rock with his last strength, and then the whole person dangled twice in the air before jumping to the ground.
After putting Xu Ruoxian down, the fourth child winked at her, and Xu Ruoxian closed his eyes before the tears fell.
He immediately pulled out the arrow on his abdomen with his backhand, and spit out a few mouthfuls of blood, walking the rivers and lakes and getting used to a hole that would not kill him, "Okay, you can open your eyes, real men are not afraid of pain, but they don't want women to see it-"
"I'm afraid you'll be in trouble if you fall in love with me."
Xu Ruoxian couldn't help but choked up and replied "self-inflicted".
"Then what are you crying about?"
"I'm scared-" Xu Ruoxian finished retorting, pressed back the emotion of crying, sat on the spot with weak legs, took a few deep breaths, and calmed down again, "What now?" You're going toβ"
"Resurrection? Now I can't save my life, and I don't care about any deal. The fourth child twisted his brows and tied a strip of black cloth to the hole in his abdomen, and his movements seemed to be bandaging others, and he was not afraid of pain at all.
"Then you can ......"
"I can't." The fourth child took two pills indiscriminately, and then sat down with a slight pant of breath, probably in the dead of night, and the sound of each other's breathing could be heard, "Send you back, our future road will also be dead." β
There are rules, if they fail the mission and are arrested, it will be a bad fate, and they will die, but if they take the initiative to send the mission target back, they will smash their own jobs, which is worse than death.
"Let's talk about it when we meet with the boss."
If he can see the boss again, he must scold him severely, saying that it would be too laborious not to take this job.
Compared with him, a man who is not working hard for his women and children, Pu Yangxu, who is desperate for his women and children, has no chance.
I can't say who is worse.

"Niangniang, there is news, the Royal Forest Army in ambush over there in Beiyuan has captured a bandit leader!"
When Amon came in to speak, Shen Tingnian, who had a splitting headache, forced himself to sit up, "What about the prince?" Has the prince been recovered?! β
"No, but the little maid next to the prince, the one named Youchun is safe and sound, according to her, the prince's life is not in danger......"
Xiao Youchun has found it...... Is her brother Zhan also fast?
