Chapter 40: The Heroes and Heroes (1)

Not only did Zhou Yu notice the trick, but Sun Ce also did the same, but he refused to tell Da Qiao the truth, and just made up some reasons every day to bluff her into not going out. Da Qiao has not been out of the door, but now he stays at home every day, concentrating on raising two children.

Cao Cao and Yuan Shao were fighting fiercely in the north, Sun Ce secretly practiced the troops, and pre-executed the mantis to catch the cicada and the yellow finch in the future, that day, he was training in the military camp in the north of the city, from the east to the west of the sunset, did not stop for a moment, and suddenly heard his subordinates report: "The lord, the second son of the house reported urgently, saying that Miss Sun went out to Buzhuang early this morning, and has not returned home, the old lady was anxious, sent someone to find, and heard that the young lady was taken away by a few Taoist people!" ”

The shouting and killing in the school field was the same, but Sun Ce's heart was in his throat for a while, and he didn't expect that the other party's target would be Sun Shangxiang, his only sister.

Sun Ce didn't have time to explain the military affairs, so he put on a red silk cloak, summoned Dawan Ma, and rushed out with the person who came to report.

Somehow, it was already the early spring apricot moon, but the goose feather snow flakes floated and sprinkled with joy, but a thin layer of incense was spread on the ground.

At the north city gate, Jiang Qin and Zhou Taizheng were ordered to track Sun Shangxiang's traces. Sun Ce came at a gallop and walked side by side with the two of them. Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai bowed, and Sun Ce waved his hand and said, "The false ceremony is exempt, what is going on?" ”

"After we got the news, we took people to look for them outside the city, and according to the confessions of the villagers who witnessed them, we saw the figure of the young lady near the rice shop, cloth village, and Chenghuang Temple, and the last time I saw them go out of the north gate......

Sun Ce quickly located in his mind, and was surprised to find that the connection lines of these locations were composed of a "swastika", at this moment, Sun Ce only felt that the blood all over his body was rushing to his brain, he galloped desperately, galloping all the way along the official road, he wore a purple and gold jade crown to the sky, wearing a golden dragon scale yuan armor, wearing a crimson silk cloak, holding a twelve-edged silver spear without spikes, and a pair of double knives crossed behind his back - the Seven Star Knife and the Ancient Ingot Knife.

The snow is the same, the snow is deeper, although it is a snow field, the speed of Da Wan Ma has not decreased at all, and it seems that he senses that this day is extraordinary, and he needs to cheer up his spirit, but in a moment, Jiang Erren is far behind.

Although Jiang Qin and Zhou Tai's horses are not BMWs, they are already the best among ordinary war horses. If none of them can catch up, the person who holds Sun Shangxiang hostage will ride a good horse that travels thousands of miles a day. And if you talk about whose horse is the best in the world, it must be Lu Bu's mount, the Red Rabbit Horse, but Lu Bu has already been ambushed in Baimen Tower, is it possible, this matter is related to Cao Cao?

No matter who the other party is, the only thing to do now is to catch up, take Shang Xiang back, and then correct the thief who kidnapped Shang Xiang. After chasing, a string of horseshoe prints appeared on the snow, and Sun Ce hurriedly whipped and chased along the imprint.

As the sky got darker, Sun Ce chased all the way north and had reached the territory of Dantu. This place is close to the Yangtze River, there is a ferry by the river, and after crossing the river, it is the boundary of Guangling under the rule of Cao Cao. Sun Ce became more and more suspicious that Cao Cao was a ghost, and the worry in his heart became a little heavier.

Suddenly, there was a faint sound of horses' hooves in front of him, and Sun Ce suddenly felt relieved, and accelerated the frequency of hitting the horse. Further on is the bend in the road, followed by a long zigzag downhill road, and the ferry crossing below the hill is also dimly visible. Sun Ce turned around here, looked down the mountain from his horse, and sure enough, he saw two people in Taoist costumes fleeing with Shang Xiang on their feet.

500 steps, 300 steps, 200 steps...... Sun Ce gradually narrowed the distance with an instantaneous acceleration. But the thieves in front also seemed to sense the pursuers behind, and their speed suddenly became faster.

Sun Ce understood that since the opposite side had brought all the red rabbit horses, he must have been fully prepared, and at this time, the bamboo raft that the ferry received was afraid that it was already leaning on the shore, and he was ready to take Sun Shangxiang across the river as soon as he supported it. He held his breath and touched the head of Da Wanma under his crotch: "I have put life and death aside, and I have to work hard for you next, my father will be buried not far away, and he can't say anything to let him see Shang Xiang in danger, only this time he is desperate to catch up with me, okay?" ”

As if he understood Sun Ce's words, Da Wanma gasped and snorted, insisted on maintaining the fastest sprint speed, and chased after the clothed man in front. Seeing that the other party was already within fifty steps, Sun Ce looked directly at the person on the horse, but saw that Shang Xiang was tied in front of him with a belt, his head drooping and shaking with the bumps on the horse, life and death were unknown.

A nameless fire surged into his heart, Sun Ce picked up his spear and shouted at the man: "Where can the thief escape!" ”

In front of the ferry, in terms of distance, no matter how fast this person is, he will be caught up by himself when he gets off the horse, and it stands to reason that he is already at the end of the road. But this person still stubbornly galloped on the horse, ignoring Sun Ce at all. When Sun Ce was wondering, he saw that the man had really stopped the horse by the river, but there was no bamboo raft or boat waiting for him on the riverside. At the same time, more than twenty Assassins dressed in robes suddenly appeared among the reeds by the river, all fully armed, and aimed their bows and arrows at him.

Sun Ce immediately understood that this was not to kidnap Shang Xiang across Jiangbei as a hostage at all, but a trap specially set up to assassinate him.

The man turned the horse's head, threw away the hat, pulled out the short knife at his waist, and crossed the neck of Shang Xiang, who was still unconscious, it was none other than Changmu Xiu, and the jujube-colored high-headed horse beside him, with a rabbit-shaped head, ears like a fox, a neck like a bird, and a ridge like a keel, was the red rabbit horse.

Seeing this, Sun Ce didn't dare to move, and immediately stopped his horse, and the two groups of people confronted each other like this.

"I didn't expect that in order to kill me, the prime minister even lent you Lu Bu's red rabbit horse. If you want my grandson to die, write a letter directly, why bother so much, why implicate my little sister? ”

Changmu Xiu snorted coldly and said, "There is no red rabbit horse here today, and there is no matter of the prime minister. Only the son of Xu Gong and his disciples will take revenge here. As he spoke, he ordered someone to push Xu Gong's youngest son out, but when he saw that he was only about sixteen or seventeen, with a bow and arrow in his hand, he trembled with fear.

"You, shoot arrows at him." Nagagi Shu ordered.

The arrow drips with a purple liquid, presumably coated with the poison of a strange bird. Xu Gong's youngest son trembled and stretched out his bow, wanting to aim at Sun Ce to shoot an arrow, but when an arrow was shot, it was a foot away. Seeing this, Sun Ce laughed and said to Changmu Xiu: "After knowing that you are the son of Zhang Liang, I will understand why you want to put me to death. Ten years ago, my father's death was probably also the work of your Yellow Turban remnants? ”

Changmu Xiu snorted coldly and said, "So what? The hatred of killing the father is not shared, and everyone is like this. Didn't you kill Yu Ji because of this? ”

Sun Ce retorted, "You are wrong. I killed Yu Ji for the sake of the people of the world. Do you demons who endanger the world, rob people and property, and commit adultery with people's daughters? ”

Changmu Xiu stared at Sun Ce, and said with disdain: "I didn't rob people and property, raped people's daughters, I just came for revenge." ”

"Well, since it's for revenge, it has nothing to do with Shang Xiang. Let my sister go, I'm here, whether you want to kill your head or shoot arrows, it's up to you. ”

Changmu Xiu said coldly: "Don't think you can fool me, the spear is in hand, how do I know if you will cooperate?" ”

Sun Ce immediately threw away the silver spear. Changmu Xiu said again: "There are also those on the body." So Sun Ce threw away the Seven Star Knife and the Ancient Ingot Knife on his back, one of which was captured by Sun Jian when he attacked Dong Zhuo, and the other was the ancestral treasure knife of the Sun family. Sun Ce raised his hands and said to Changmu Xiu, "Can you let my sister go now?" ”

Changmu Xiu sneered, and then let go of Sun Shangxiang. Sun Shangxiang was still unconscious, and was pushed violently, and immediately fell to the ground like soft noodles.

"Shang Xiang!" Sun Ce hurriedly stepped forward to check, but he didn't expect Changmu Xiu to suddenly flick his wide sleeves, and a dart soaked in the poison of a strange bird flew like lightning like Sun Ce. Sun Ce dodged, but the poisonous dart still flew over his cheeks, marking a long blood mark.

"My lord! Lord! Not far away, the shouts of Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin were heard, and Changmu Xiu heard this, and immediately beckoned to his comrades, and a bamboo row sailed out of the hidden reeds, carrying Changmu Xiu, the Red Rabbit Horse, and the assassins across the river together. Sun Ce had no intention of chasing again, endured the severe pain and shook Sun Shangxiang in his arms, and kept calling. But before he could call a few sounds, Sun Ce's hands were soft and he fell beside Sun Shangxiang.

I don't know how long it took, but the power of the anesthetic under Changmu's cultivation gradually faded. Xu heard Sun Ce's call in his sleep, and the first thing Sun Shangxiang said when he woke up was the word "brother". But when she came to her senses, she saw that she was in the snow in the wilderness, and on her side, Sun Ce fell in a pool of blood, already unconscious.
