Chapter 268: Assassination on the way
"Is there anything you are worried about?" Wubi stood up and cautiously surveyed all around the woods.
Seeing that there was nothing unusual, Wubi was about to come back to report the situation to Murong Yu, when he saw him pinching the water bag under the tree without any movement, just in a daze, there were really some doubts and worries in his heart, so he couldn't help but ask out loud.
"It's nothing, even if there is anything to worry about, anyway, I'll go back soon, let's wait until I get back to Yanwu City." Murong Yu withdrew his empty eyes from his distraction, and threw the intact water bag back into Wubi's hand.
Wubi knew in his heart that Murong Yu must have made a decision, so he didn't continue to ask, and after packing up his things, he raised his arms and shouted, informing the guards who were still resting.
"Hurry up and pack up and get ready to go, if you're really tired, you'd better wait until you get back to the city and have a good rest." Wubi's order was what Murong Yu meant, and those guards couldn't help but complain a little, but they still didn't stop what they were doing.
Murong Yu got into his carriage, and just as a simple convoy was about to hit the road, he saw a group of big men with masked faces suddenly break out of the bushes not far away.
Each of these big men had a palm-wide scimitar in their hands, and their goal was very clear, so they rushed in the direction of Murong Yu's carriage.
Wubi was taken aback, obviously he didn't find anything wrong before, how this group of people appeared out of thin air.
But this is not the time to think about these issues, Wubi also learned a lot of martial arts by his side, he pulled out the sword at his waist and shouted,
"Protect the prince!" Then together with the guards next to him, they rushed into the encirclement of the group of big men and fought with them.
Murong Yu is a general on the battlefield in the end, how can he endure staying in a safe place quietly.
Then he turned out the sword and dagger hidden under the seat of the carriage. With a sword in his right hand and a dagger in his bosom, he stepped down from the carriage and fought alongside his guards.
What is the meaning of the treasure sword is not old, the most true explanation can be obtained in Murong Yu's body. The group of big men didn't know why Murong Yu had such a brave skill, and they were all frightened away by his momentum.
Originally, when they fought with Wubi and other guards, the big men thought that they were winning, but Murong Yu's sudden appearance gave them a very heavy blow.
And in addition to the group of big men who appeared in the woods to fight, there seemed to be people in the corners silently watching everything here.
Seeing that the battle situation was deviating from Murong Yu's direction, the person hiding in the bushes suddenly took out a bow and arrow, and the sharp arrow with blue tail feathers was placed on the long bowstring, and as the person let go, it actually pierced into Murong Yu's arm.
Looking at the direction in which the bow and arrow were shot, it seemed that the original intention was to target Murong Yu's heart. But fortunately, Murong Yu reacted quickly and dodged to the side in time to avoid this fatal blow.
But as soon as Murong Yu was injured, it meant that the situation of the battle changed. The morale of Murong Yu's guards was greatly affected, and under the pursuit of that group of big men, there was no way to retreat five strokes, so he had to carefully protect Murong Yu and retreat to the side.
And the other guards under Murong Yu, although they are not of much use, they have a loyal heart.
In order to cover Wubi and Murong Yu, they all desperately blocked in front of the group of big men and did not back down.
Listening to the sound of fighting in his ears gradually faded away, Wubi protected Murong Yu and ran behind a bush. Thinking that it would be safe here, Murong Yu didn't have time to take off the arrow on his arm to check the wound, who would have thought that another blue feather arrow shot out from the dark and stuck it in the tree next to Murong Yu Wubi was angry and shocked in his heart, checked Murong Yu's one, and found that there were no other wounds, so he lifted his sword and took the initiative to ask Ying to go after and kill the man.
"Looking at their appearance, they will definitely not stop so easily, and their subordinates will go over to attract the attention of those pursuers, and the prince will take this opportunity to quickly find a safe place to hide." In the face of a strong enemy, if you leave your brother behind, it is never something that a soldier does.
Murong Yu was about to object, but he found that Wubi knew himself very well and shook his head.
"Without further ado, I hope that the prince will not shirk, the slave can do his best for the prince, it is the honor of the slave, if the slave is gone and never returns, I hope the prince will take good care of his body." After saying that, Wubi rushed out of the bushes with a deadly posture and galloped away in the direction where the sharp arrow had come from.
Murong Yu sat in the bushes, took a moment to calm his breath, and then took out the gold sore medicine that he had always prepared in his arms, barely stopped the blood flowing on his left arm, and then heard the roar of the group of chasing and killing big men, and was approaching here again.
Murong Yu was shocked, and found that Wubi hadn't come back yet, he was very worried about whether he was safe and sound, and he had to take into account the situation in front of him, so he had to hold on to his body that was not as dexterous as when he was young, and ran out of a path next to the bushes.
In Yanwu City, Murong Lin had just handed over the things that needed attention today to An Jing and Feng Xiaoyue, and Feng Xiaoyue took Xiaoyun and Lin Xiao outside.
An Jing remained in the barracks, responsible for guarding and maintaining law and order in the city. After Murong Lin exchanged a few words with him, he was about to lead the troops out to welcome Murong Yu's return to the city, and when he was about to order troops in the barracks, he suddenly found that one of the armies was inexplicably missing a lot of people.
Curious, Murong Lin inquired about the sergeants in the other barracks, but no one knew where they went, and according to what these people said, it seemed that someone had borrowed a military order and mobilized people to go out.
When he was puzzled, Murong Lin suddenly had an ominous premonition in his heart, and hurriedly asked An Jing to immediately select a team of light horsemen and follow him to the top of the boundary mountain.
An Jing rode a fast horse to Murong Lin's side, and kept reassuring him,
"Don't be nervous, maybe these people want to make meritorious contributions, and they take the initiative to go outside to find a place to dig a well, and the prince will definitely be fine." That being said, An Jing was also very uncertain in his heart, after all, in Yanwu City, the only people who were qualified to deploy troops were Murong Lin and himself.
And they had all checked the information with each other, and no one had ever made such a decision, which was one of the things that made Murong Lin even more worried.
Thinking that Murong Yu had left in less than ten days, so many major events had happened one after another in the domain, which made Murong Lin can't help but doubt his ability to take on the well-being of the people of the Eleven Cities.
On the boundary mountain, in order to avoid the pursuit of that group of people, Murong Yu went all the way along the sheep intestine path in the bushes, who would have thought that the end of this road turned out to be a high slope.
There was also a huge stone standing on the edge of the small slope, and the voices of those people in his ears were still ringing from time to time, Murong Yu had no choice but to hide behind the stone temporarily, trying to hide from the group of people.
Thinking that as the lord of the domain of the Eleventh City of Smoke, he was titled King Li, and he had a lifetime of fighting horses, but he ended up in such an embarrassing end at this time, and he was afraid that it would make people laugh and be generous when he said it.
"He's there, come here!" Just as Murong Yu was in a state of cranky thinking about his own affairs, the shouts of the group of people outside pulled him back to reality all of a sudden.
Murong Yu was shocked in his heart, but he didn't notice it at his feet, so he rolled all the way down this small hill. Countless dead branches and leaves, with a smell of decay, covered his body and face.
Murong Yu only felt pain all over his body, and he didn't have the strength to reach out to rub it to relieve it, and he felt that his consciousness was slowly weakening.
This small slope is very steep, and the place where Murong Yu fell is a blind spot, and the group of chasers stood behind the boulder where he was originally hiding, and did not notice his existence, but just chattered and cursed a few words and turned away.
As a person who practices martial arts, he always maintains a high degree of vigilance, especially when Murong Yu knows that his physical condition is not good, he is even more nervous, as if he has returned to the scene of fighting with the enemy when he was young.
Suddenly, feeling that the strip of cloth on his arm that had been simply bandaged by himself seemed to be gently untied by a person, Murong Yu opened his eyes suddenly, reflexively pulled out the dagger hidden in his arms, and slashed towards the person beside him.
"Ahh The man exclaimed in surprise and fell to the ground. Murong Yu listened to what seemed to be a young girl's voice, and looked in her direction, only to find that it was indeed a beautiful girl in coarse linen clothes, sitting on the ground of fallen leaves.
The little girl seemed to be scared enough, her big watery eyes were still full of tears, Murong Yu was embarrassed to withdraw her dagger, but fortunately, it was probably because her body had not recovered at that time, and the young man's quick reaction speed did not let him accidentally hurt others.
Murong Yu put the dagger back into his arms, and inadvertently found that the arm of his left hand had been re-bandaged with a clean bandage.
He raised his eyes to look at the little girl, and asked as softly as he could,
"Dare to ask the girl, the wound on my arm, but you healed it for me?" The little girl didn't speak, and saw that Murong Yu seemed to calm down, so she reluctantly withdrew the tears in her eyes and nodded lightly.
Murong Lin rushed to the top of the boundary mountain with a group of horses without stopping, and rummaged around for a long time before finally finding the only way for Murong Yu to return to the city under the leadership of An Jing.
Murong Lin hurried over, and after seeing the scene in front of him, his eyes couldn't help but widen.
