Chapter 111: Collision
A touch of morning light shone on the girl's body.
The night dawned, as if she had brought the morning light into the ancient city.
"That's ......"
In the distance, Dongfang Yi, the national teacher of Eastern Wu who came from the other direction of the city tower, looked at the city tower in a daze.
"Who's that?"
At his side stood the young king. Zhao Duanren was on top of the tall building, and saw her brilliance, and the man's eyes must have opened his mouth to ask.
They arrived a split second before the woman rushed through the gates.
There would actually be someone rushing all the way into Ruyang City, looking at the group under the city tower and the retreating killers and wolves, Zhao Duren's brown eyes narrowed slightly.
Who are these people?
The tall man leaned on the city wall with his hands, looking at the girl who rushed to the front and the young man who was riding a horse behind her, and his eyes were stunned for a moment.
"Silver cicada?" He spoke softly.
"Your Majesty?" Hearing this long-lost word, Dongfang Yi Huo Ran looked sideways, and looked at the king beside him in amazement, but saw Zhao Duren stretching out his hand to support his forehead, and said lightly to himself, "How is it possible?" ”
Looking at the picture of a group of teenagers charging forward with a young girl, the middle-aged man was in a trance for a moment. The memories of his youth seemed to be awakened in an instant, and he seemed to grasp something, but his reason as a king kept telling him that it was impossible.
What you can't go back to just can't go back.
The silver cicada is gone.
"Your Majesty, the last general deserves death!"
At this time, the city gate guards rushed to the ground and slammed their heads on the city bricks.
"You're probably not guilty," Zhao Duren glanced lightly at the jade pendant hanging on the helmet of the person on the ground, and looked at the national teacher beside him, "You see it clearly, right?" ”
"Well," Dongfang Yi bent down and took off the jade pendant from the guard's head, "There is indeed the king of Tanglin County among the people under the city, don't close the city gate, let them in." ”
"But those men in black can't let them in." The old man said lightly, "Put one in, and you will come to see you." ”
The guard who knelt on it trembled and hurriedly looked down at the city, but the next moment his eyes lit up, and he saw that the black-clothed people and wolves who were originally chasing behind the group of young girls were retreating.
"Oh? It seems that there is still a sense of proportion," Zhao Duren narrowed his eyes and looked at the gate below the city tower in the morning light.
The girl reined in after passing through the city gate, quietly watching the man in black outside the city, clenching the sword in her hand.
The girl broke through the darkness and opened the gates, ending the pursuit.
Although it is not known who she is, this war.
It was she who won.
"There are actually people who can win against those people," Zhao Duren looked condescendingly at the black-clothed man retreating outside the city, his eyes sharp, "It's the first time I've seen it." ”
Once the wolves on the grassland saw their prey, they would bite them to death, and if they were targeted, they would only be devoured, and it was the first time he had seen someone who could make those people retreat.
Who is this woman?
At this time, as if sensing something, Zhao Duren raised his head and looked at a man in Tsing Yi standing on a hill outside the city in the morning light.
Li Ji retracted his gaze, the green clothes on his body had been damaged in many places, and the last trace of blood flowed from his sleeve, but he stood quietly on the top of the hill, staring at the young man riding on the snow wolf in front of him.
"It's over," he said, sheathing his sword, looking at the person across from him and speaking lightly, "You can't catch her." ”
The young man's blue eyes flickered, and there was a middle-aged man covered in black armor standing beside him, his face was a little ugly when he heard this, and he whispered to the young man next to him and asked, "Master, are we still chasing?" ”
Helian Yan raised his head and looked at the city gate in the distance, and the picture of the girl jumping in on a horse was still vivid.
The path by the stream in the clouds appeared in front of him, and he closed his eyes.
"It's too much loss to chase it any longer." The young man spoke lightly and glanced at Li Ji in front of him, "It seems that our battle has to be suspended today. ”
But it's far from the end.
Helian Yan glanced at the Beihan Pavilion convoy in the other direction, and an unfathomable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"You don't have to rejoice too soon, her real challenge is after she enters the city."
Li Ji turned around, didn't look at him and didn't answer, only the hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist tightened slightly.
"Let's go!" There was a faint sound from the young man behind him, and Li Ji turned around and found that the person behind him had disappeared without a trace.
The killers and wolves on the official road also receded like a tide.
Li Ji clenched the hilt of his sword, looked at the city gate in the distance, and took off his mask.
Dingding looked at the back of the girl entering the city in the morning light, and the corner of the man's mouth showed a smile like nothing.
The next moment, he looked at the bronze mask in his hand to wipe off the blood stains and was about to put it back on, but at this moment, as if sensing something, Li Ji raised his head suddenly.
Looking at the bright light in the distance from another city gate in the direction where Ying Baoyue and the others entered the city, his pupils suddenly shrank.
……
……
Watching those black-clothed people and wolves leave, Chen Zi, Chu Ji, Jiashu and the others breathed a deep sigh of relief.
Looking at the city gate in front of him, which was no longer closed, Chen Zichu stopped beating the horse, hugged the horse's neck and almost collapsed, "This is finally over, right?" ”
Ji Jiashu also calmed his breath, looked tired but showed a smile, and nodded.
There were so many unexpected things that happened to this extremely difficult journey, and finally reached a safe end.
He had never been so frightened and apprehensive in his life.
But when it's over, it's emotional.
This arduous journey will probably become an asset for the rest of his life.
Being in it feels extremely long, but it really leaps forward, but there is a sense of fulfillment and accomplishment that I have never felt before.
Originally, they did what seemed impossible, and the girl also fulfilled her promise.
"Sister!"
"Your Highness the Princess!"
Not far away, from the city gate, came the voices of Ji Qingyuan, Ji Ange and Gui Li, who were familiar to him, it seemed that they had arrived in advance, and they had been guarding near the city gate.
In the morning light, the young man smiled like a flower.
They really, one by one, arrived in Ruyang.
Ji Jiashu smiled and beat his horse towards the city gate, also wanting to join in this happy reunion, but at this moment, a strange cultivator's aura suddenly came from behind him.
"There was such a big commotion, and even the widow was delayed to greet the Northern Wei National Teacher," Zhao Duren on the city tower walked in the direction of the city gate where he was originally located, and asked as he walked, "Have you found out who this group of people is below?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, it was the former Qin princess who entered the capital just now." Dongfang Yi beside him spoke, and the old man's expression was a little complicated.
"Former Qin...... Princess? Zhao Duren was stunned for a moment, and the next moment his eyes were slightly deep, "It turned out to be her." ”
Without waiting for him to say anything more, a Dongwu official in front of him suddenly rushed over from the front.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Northern Wei Dynasty National Teacher ......"
"What's wrong?" Zhao Duren frowned, "Although the widow has been delayed for a while, Hebo won't just not enter the city like this, right?" ”
"Back to Your Majesty, there is news from the Northern Wei National Division, saying that their convoy is going to be rerouted to another gate, and they are going to take the West City Gate."
The West Gate was the same one they had just come from.
"What is the temporary lane change to do? Are you playing with us Dongwu people? ”
There was a trace of anger in Zhao Duren's eyes, but he only heard the official in front of him tremble and said, "The national teacher of the Northern Wei Dynasty doesn't seem to be willing either, but it seems that the daughter of the national teacher is bent on going her own way and has already gone to open the way!" ”
Zhao Duren was stunned for a moment, and the sound of the guards panicking came from the West City Gate not far behind him.
"Miss Xu, what are you going to do?"
The group of people from the National Teacher's Mansion who were reuniting in the West City Gate were enjoying themselves, Ying Huyue put down the return and separation hanging on his body, Ji Ange was about to pounce, but he saw that the girl in front of him suddenly shrank her pupils, and reached out and pushed her into Ji Qingyuan's arms.
"Sister!?"
Ji Ange's sword flashed in front of him.
Ying Baoyue turned around, and a thin sword was slashing from her neck!
