Chapter 159: New Divine Venerable
The last bit of red light between heaven and earth gradually dissipated.
The surroundings fell into darkness in an instant.
Originally, it would be a dozen miles to get to the town, but something happened at this time.
A burst of arrow feathers pierced the dead silence in the sky, and instantly flew towards the carriage that Shen Yuzhu was sitting in.
Although the carriage Mu Xiuhan was riding in was quite strong, it couldn't withstand such a dense attack.
The tightly closed windows of the carriage were also torn open, and clusters of arrows flew in.
Brush it up!
The blade of the sword in Mu Xiuhan's hand was already out of the sheath, and the arrow that pierced in was cut off in an instant, and it fell in front of Shen Yuzhu.
The broken arrow emitted a blue glow, and at first glance, it looked like it had been quenched by someone, or it was still highly poisonous.
This was followed by several masked Assassins in black suits who rushed towards the carriage.
The blade, which was also quenched with poison, stabbed in, and it was half an inch away from Shen Yuzhu.
If the blade was to move an inch into it, it would be able to stab Shen Yuzhu's face.
Suddenly, the sword in Mu Xiuhan's hand suddenly pulled out a strange sword flower, piercing the assassins who were trying to break into the carriage outside.
The angle is tricky, and the person outside can't avoid it at all.
Screams, muffled snorts, and the strong smell of blood hit.
Mu Xiuhan only sat in the carriage, and his body didn't move much, so the people outside were frightened, and he couldn't get even half a step closer to the carriage.
He was another sword, and I don't know which unlucky guy was blocked by a sword.
The opening of the car window became bigger and bigger, and the blood on the neck of the man in black who was stabbed instantly spurted out and splashed on Shen Yuzhu's face.
Shen Yuzhu's face did not move at all, and she raised her hand to lightly wipe the blood on her cheeks.
Even Mu Xiuhan was a little amazed when he looked at his wife's performance, is this still a teenage girl?
An ordinary woman must have been able to cry in fright when she saw such a bloody scene, he didn't know what ancestor he had married?
A different kind of sword sound suddenly sounded all around, and the footsteps around became more and more dense.
Then the strong smell of gunpowder hit, and heavy arrows tied to fireballs suddenly flew on the hillsides on both sides of the official road.
"Let's go!" Mu Xiuhan frowned fiercely, grabbed Shen Yuzhu's hand, hugged her soft waist tightly with one hand, and jumped out of the broken roof.
As soon as the two of them leaped out of the carriage, the arrow feathers tied to gunpowder around them instantly blew up the carriage where Shen Yuzhu had stayed just now into a sea of fire.
The crimson firelight reflected in Mu Xiu's cold phoenix eyes, and a trace of frost was permeated in the brilliance.
Shen Yuzhu didn't feel very deeply when she sat in the carriage before, but she only knew that they were attacked by a group of thieves.
This time, he was carried out of the carriage by Mu Xiuhan, and was stunned when he saw the scene around him.
The silver-armored guards of the Mu family fought with the black-clothed assassins who kept pouring in, and there were broken corpses everywhere.
Obviously, the Mu family's guards had the upper hand, and those black-clothed people gradually became a little overwhelmed.
Bai Chuan, a henchman beside Mu Xiuhan, took out a brown bamboo tube from his arms, lit it and exploded in mid-air.
There was another hurried sound of horses' hooves stomping on the ground, and a large group of cavalry rushed over not far away.
Shen Yuzhu's heart trembled slightly, to assassinate Mu Xiuhan in such a big battle tonight, the opponent was definitely not simple.
I don't know if this wave of people is friend or foe?
When he saw the cavalry led by him rush into the battle group, he slashed at the man in black.
Shen Yuzhu suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, this is a rescuer.
Where can those men in black still be able to withstand it? They all withdrew from this hell on earth, trying to escape to another part of the hillside.
"Lord Shizi, they want to escape!" Baichuan roared in a low voice.
"You send someone to chase it!" Mu Xiuhan's voice was very cold, "Remember not to leave your mouth alive!" ”
Shen Yuzhu shuddered, when she saw this man before, she only saw his weak, evil, and love to joke with people.
Such a bloody and ruthless side really shocked her.
Soon the chaotic scene gradually subsided.
After a while, Bai Chuan took a few pieces of blood-stained jade plaques and half-knelt in front of Mu Xiuhan.
"Lord Shizi, you have a look!"
Mu Xiuhan took the jade plate handed over by Bai Chuan, looked at it fixedly, his eyes flashed slightly, and he sneered, "Heh! Sure enough, it was him! ”
"Someone! Send these people to the second young master's courtyard and make fun of his beloved concubines! ”
Shen Yuzhu suddenly raised his eyes to look at the tall man standing beside him, and the fierce fight before did not leave the slightest embarrassment and blood on his body.
He stood with his hands in the evening breeze, and the corners of his dark robe swayed in a dangerous arc with the winter wind.
But the words that came out of his mouth were even more terrifying.
What to send to the second young master's courtyard?
Could it be that the person who assassinated them halfway and wanted to make their newlyweds die in the wild was from the Mu family?
I heard that the Mu family also had a son before finding Mu Xiuhan, who was born to the stepwife of the Yong'an Hou Mansion.
This person is brilliant and talented, and he is also a good-looking talent in the capital.
The only fly in the ointment is that the body is too weak.
has been sick since childhood and may die at any time, such a person is not suitable to be the son of the Mu family, and it just so happened that Mu Xiuhan came back.
Shen Yuzhu only felt that a little coolness was oozing from her backbone, and sure enough, the princess of the Mu family was not so easy to do.
This hasn't even arrived in the capital, it's already dangerous.
"Scared?" Mu Xiuhan turned to look at Shen Yuzhu, whose face was slightly pale.
The night wind was very cold, Shen Yuzhu couldn't help but shiver, looked up at Mu Xiuhan and said with a faint smile, "It's false to say that you are not afraid, but before you arrived in the capital, someone sent a congratulatory gift, the face of the prince."
