Chapter 43: Turning the Tide of Safety

The powder blew down with the wind and fell head-on on the faces of those who were chasing and killing.

Ji Yanning said: "These powders have a fast attack, but they can only make their bodies itchy and slow down their movements, and if someone comes behind them, there will be no way." ”

Rong Che hummed in a low voice, and then hugged Ji Yanning and left quickly.

Jin Wuwei and the others couldn't help but be a little annoyed as they watched the people who went to chase Rong Che gradually stop.

When he stepped forward, he noticed that these people were strange, and everyone was scratching their bodies vigorously, looking like they had been poisoned by some kind of medicinal powder.

He gritted his teeth and led the people to continue to chase forward!

King Xuan took a woman who didn't know martial arts, and she was not very familiar with the terrain in this mountain, so she naturally couldn't run far.

Over the years, King Xuan has been closely related to the third prince, and it is a threat to the second prince, if it can be removed, it would be better.

"Boss, someone is chasing after you. The man behind him stepped forward and spoke.

"Don't care, they can't make it to the climate, killing King Xuan is the first thing. ”

Rong Che ran all the way with Ji Yanning, his arm was injured again, his breathing gradually became a little heavy, and his steps didn't seem to be so fast.

Ji Yanning was just about to say that he had put himself down, but Rong Che had already stopped.

She was stunned and puzzled: "What's wrong?"

Rong Che said: "There is a cliff ahead. ”

Ji Yanning got off his back and took two steps forward, and sure enough, she saw that there was no way ahead, and she felt a cool breeze coming from not far away, blowing in her face and reaching the bottom of her heart.

Jin Wuwei's people are very familiar with the terrain here, and naturally know that there is a cliff in front of them, and they are trying to take advantage of the victory to pursue, but the government soldiers and Ji family guards behind them have already rushed forward and are fighting with the people behind.

When the people in front rushed to the edge of the cliff, they only saw Ji Yanning standing alone on the edge of the cliff at a loss.

Without seeing King Xuan, Jin Wuwei stepped forward and said, "Why are you alone?"

"I ......" Ji Yanning shook his head, as if he was frightened, but his eyes couldn't help but look at the mountains and forests on the right, "I don't know." ”

They followed Ji Yanning's gaze, and suddenly saw the bushes on the right side swaying, and then another black shadow flashed by.

"He's over there!" Jin Wuwei's men rushed to the right.

At this moment, a figure suddenly jumped up from the edge of the cliff behind Ji Yanning, wrapped his arms around her waist, and quickly ran away in the direction of the left.

By the time the Jin Wuwei guards reacted, Rong Che had already run some distance with Ji Yanning.

"Chase!"

Breaking through the thirty or so people who were chasing them in front, Rong Che was about to take Ji Yanning back, when he happened to meet other people who were mixed up with the officers and soldiers of the county government.

"Miss!" Ji Jiu looked at Ji Yanning who came not far away with sharp eyes, and exclaimed in surprise.

At this moment, the sword light flashed in front of him, and he subconsciously dodged sideways, then kicked in the chest of the person who attacked him, made up for it again, and then ran quickly in the direction of Ji Yanning.

"Miss, are you okay?Why is there blood on your clothes?" Ji Jiu hurriedly asked, "Are you injured?"

Ji Yanning said: "I'm fine, it's not my blood, hurry up and let everyone evacuate." ”

It's just that as soon as her words fell, the people chasing them had already rushed forward and surrounded them.

The officers and soldiers and the guards of the Ji family were injured a lot, and they were divided into a part to escort the girls back, and now if these people fight hard, they probably won't be their opponents.

"I don't embarrass you, just hand him over and the rest of you can leave, I will do what I say. The head of Jin Wuwei pointed his sword at Rong Che and said.

The officers and soldiers of the government and the guards of the Ji family all turned their eyes on Rong Che.

Ji Yanning opened his mouth and said, "No." ”

After escaping with her for a night, he was probably already tired, and the wound on his arm was bleeding all the time, how could he run out under the hands of these people.

If he had abandoned himself earlier, he would not have fallen into such an embarrassing situation.

The leader of Jin Wuwei looked at Ji Yanning: "If you don't hand him over, I don't mind letting you die with him." ”

Ji Yanning wanted to say something, but suddenly felt a pain in his neck, and fainted.

Rong Che knocked her unconscious, asked Ji Jiu to hold Ji Yanning, and said, "Take her away." ”

As they spoke, Jin Wuwei's men drew their swords and stabbed Rong Che directly.

Rong Che ducked to the side, and then scuffled with them.

Ji Jiu was only responsible for protecting Ji Yanning, he picked up Ji Yanning and walked in the opposite direction under the protection of the guards.

Rong Che quickly lost the upper hand, was besieged by dozens of people and kicked to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

"Lord, go die!"

The leader of Jin Wuwei raised his sword and stabbed it towards Rong Che's chest.

With a bang, the sword in his hand was knocked to the ground!

The flying eagle stepped forward to help Rong Che, jumped up, stepped lightly on the trunk of the tree next to him, and immediately took Rong Che out of their encirclement.

Where are Jin Wuwei's people willing to let King Xuan go like this, and they turned around and were about to chase after him, when they suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves not far away, and it seemed that there were still a lot of people.

In a few moments, about a thousand soldiers surrounded them on the top of the hill.

"Bold rebels, dare to kidnap girls, murder His Royal Highness King Xuan, don't be quick to be arrested!"

Situ Feng, the governor of Hejiang, surrounded them with men and horses.

The sky has gradually brightened, and the sky is white, but the mountain behind the Taoist temple is full of shouts and killings.

When Ji Yanning woke up, it was already past noon, and the sunlight was shining down from the window, shining a square light on the ground.

She lifted the quilt and got up, only to feel that her neck was a little sore, she subconsciously reached out to rub it, and suddenly remembered what happened last night.

"Someone!" she shouted.

Ying'er walked in from the outside and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Miss, are you awake?"

"Why am I here?" asked Ji Yanning.

Ying'er said: "The eldest lady was brought back by Brother Ji, and the young lady was still in a coma at that time. ”

"Let Ji Jiu come over. Ji Yanning said.

Soon Ji Jiu came over, his arm was wrapped in gauze, it was a wound left last night.

Ji Yanning learned about the final development of the matter from Ji Jiu's mouth, and after she fell into a coma, the governor of Hejiang came with soldiers and horses to encircle and suppress those people, but Jin Wuwei's people resisted desperately, leaving no one alive.

The official who claimed to be investigating the case was also rescued.

Ji Yanning said: "You are not lightly injured, let's stay for two more days and then hurry." ”

Ziyu entered the house with food from the outside, and when she heard Ji Yanning's words, she said, "Miss, we are afraid that we will stay for more than two days, and today the inn is full of people, all of whom are here to see Miss." ”

Ji Yanning was puzzled: "Why did you see me?"

Ji Jiu said with a smile: "This time I cleaned up the bandits and rescued so many girls, thanks to the eldest lady, now the hearts of the people around the eldest lady are like living bodhisattvas, and they naturally want to come over to thank and repay the kindness." ”

"Let them go back, those girls are frightened, and the family still has to comfort them. Ji Yanning said, "Thank you for not needing." ”

Ying'er and Ziyu set up the meal together, turned to Ji Yanning and smiled: "Miss has always been kind, even if she helps others, she doesn't like to take credit. ”

Ji Yanning said with a straight face: "It's just to repay the kindness of those villagers for helping." They took us in to hide from the rain, but they didn't take the money, so I helped them find their daughter.

Ying'er: "......"

Ziyu, who was on the side, couldn't help but smile when she saw Ying'er's expression that she didn't know what to say, she said: "No matter what, Miss doesn't like too noisy places, they stay in the inn like this and want to see Miss, I'm afraid it will disturb Miss's tranquility." ”

Ji Jiu said: "Then I'll let them go back first." ”

He bowed to Ji Yanning as he spoke, and then walked downstairs.

Ji Yanning had lunch, and Huang Xianling came to the door in person and brought a lot of gifts.

Standing beside Huang Xianling, there are still flowers.

Hua Duyan stepped forward and solemnly gave Ji Yanning a big gift: "Thank you Miss Ji for saving me." ”

Ji Yanning helped her up: "It's just easy." ”

"This is Miss Hua, the daughter of our prefect, in order to investigate this case, the prefect was killed by those bandits and ruined her family, and now only Miss Hua is left, which can be regarded as leaving a trace of blood for Lord Hua. Huang Xianling said regretfully.

It turned out to be the daughter of the prefect's family, no wonder when she was in the secret room, those women listened to her so much, it seems that the prefect of Hua has a lot of fame.

Ji Yanning said: "It's a pity that those scum are dead, there is no evidence, and you can't find out who is behind the scenes." ”

Hua Duyan said: "Even if you know, they are in a high position and power, and they are not at all something that those of us who have no power and no power can shake it." ”

Those who can mobilize Jin Wuwei are nothing more than the emperor's relatives and important ministers, how can they resist each other!

Ji Yanning said: "There is a special investigation of this case, maybe there will be hope." ”

"They caught the girls who had not left the pavilion, just to use the virgin blood of a hundred women to refine them into pills and give them to the five princes. Hua Duyan said, "The five princes are from Su Guifei, even if they are Qincha, I am afraid it will be difficult to take them!"

Huang Xianling glanced at her and motioned to her not to say so much, so as to save trouble from her mouth.

Ji Yanning listened to her words, and the look of surprise on his face could not be hidden, using the blood of a hundred women's virgins to refine the elixir?

How could anyone have thought of such a terrifying method!

No wonder they hide in Taoist temples......

Ji Yanning was shocked for a moment, but quickly recovered his expression and looked at Hua Yanyan: "How do you know?"

Hua Duanyan had a good impression of Ji Yanning, so naturally he didn't hide it from her: "If I didn't know this, how could my Hua family suffer from this catastrophe, my father originally investigated this case, and then those Jin Wuwei felt that his father was difficult, so they wanted to win him over, but when his father refused, they had murderous intent and slaughtered my whole family!"

Ji Yanning groaned for a while, and then asked, "Do you know who came up with this alchemy idea?"

"Wen Xi Bo Su Jiwen, I heard that he is Su Guifei's cousin. Hua Duyan said, "I heard that he likes alchemy and seeking Taoism, but I didn't expect to be able to do such a thing!"

Su Ningxue, Su Jiwen......

Sure enough, the road is narrow.

A trace of murderous intent flashed in Ji Yanning's eyes.
