Chapter Twenty-Five: The Hunt
When he woke up, the sun was already hanging high in the sky, Su Xiaoxiao raised his head and rubbed his eyes against the sun, and then he found the people around him.
There was a trace of embarrassment on Amu's face, and he rubbed his arm unnaturally, he must have been pressed and sore. Su Xiaoxiao smiled embarrassedly, "Amu, I'm sorry, is it numb?" ”
"Hey, hurry up and get in the car, my eldest lady, in the future, you still sit in the car honestly, you know how to bully honest people." Lao Qi sat in the carriage and canceled.
Su Xiaoxiao glared at him and pouted, "Hmph, you talk a lot, if you do this again, be careful that I don't give you money when I get there." ”
"Huh?" Lao Qi smiled evilly, "If you don't give me money, I will sell you to the Qinglou, anyway, with your appearance, it is worth some silver, maybe I will make it." Lao Qi said, and the emperor's head chirped crookedly and hummed a little tune.
Su Xiaoxiao was thinking about how to respond, and handed over a hand, Su Xiaoxiao looked online in the direction of her hand, and was meeting Amu's smiling face, "Get up, it's important to hurry." ”
Su Xiaoxiao took that hand and stood up from the ground with strength. He patted himself and sat back in the carriage.
The three of them arrived at a lake at noon, and Su Xiaoxiao deliberately washed his face in the lake, facing the sunshine and the feeling of waves in the water. Su Xiaoxiao put his hand into the lake, scooped up a handful of water with his hand, looked at Lao Qi, who was squatting beside him and washing his hands, and shouted with a wicked smile.
"Seventh?"
When Lao Qi heard this, he turned his head to look, Su Xiaoxiao laughed and raised the water in his hand on Lao Qi's body, and did not forget to put his hand back into the water, ready to be on guard at any time.
However, Lao Qi didn't fight back, but looked at Su Xiaoxiao blankly, and under the sun, there was a happy smile on the girl's charming face.
I have to admit that Su Xiaoxiao is charming, with a face as beautiful as a fairy, and an innocent and lovely heart. Lao Qi felt that his heart seemed to be soft and hairy, and he felt a little unacceptable.
Seeing that he didn't respond, Su Xiaoxiao took her hand out of the water unhappily, "Hey? Aren't you angry? ”
Lao Qi shook his head, "Let's go, get in the car, let's hurry." ”
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the direction of Lao Qi suspiciously, rubbed his head suspiciously, didn't he get angry? Why is it so quiet all of a sudden?
Lao Qi and Su Xiaoxiao sat in the carriage, Amu was driving the carriage outside, and the three of them had just set off, when suddenly the sound of the horses' hooves of the brigade came from behind them.
Originally, Lao Qi, Amu and Su Xiaoxiao didn't think much about it, but the voice was getting closer and closer, closer and closer. Amu, who was driving the carriage, tightened the reins and slowly pulled over the carriage.
Lao Qi sat in the car and pressed the scimitar on his waist, he had walked this road many times, and there had never been so many people passing by, and Lao Qi vaguely felt a little ominous feeling in his heart.
Su Xiaoxiao also looked back and became nervous, it couldn't be Ling Anfeng who wanted to arrest her back, right? Wouldn't it be so many people to catch her?
The three of them were nervous and focused.
The team of horses drew closer and closer, and at last moment the group of men and horses came up round them, and the horses of the three of them were frightened, neighed in a low voice, and went around the bend in place, not daring to advance.
"Who's coming?" As soon as Amu's words fell, he heard the impatient command of the comer, "Kill them all." ”
Fortunately, the three of them had already taken precautions, Amu stretched out his hand to pull Su Xiaoxiao, protected her by his side, and reminded in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, if we can escape, we must believe in our horses." ”
When Amu heard that command, he shook off his whip and jerked it on the horse's buttocks, and the horse rushed out in fright. Su Xiaoxiao only felt the carriage shake, and his body shook and fell into Lao Qi's arms, just struggling to sit down, the carriage shook violently.
"Sit inside and don't come out." Lao Qi got out of the carriage with a scimitar in his hand and stood with Amu.
The carriage was still jolting ahead of the curve, and the pursuers behind it were also following closely. Amu jumped onto the back of the horse behind the carriage and yelled at Su Xiaoxiao, "Give me the arrow." ”
Su Xiaoxiao remembered that when he passed through the last town, Amu had to buy this bow and arrow, saying that he would shoot a few wild animals to eat if he had the chance, but he didn't expect it to come in handy now.
She hurriedly handed the bow and arrow to Amu, and she didn't know who these people were behind her, and she didn't know which of them had made enemies, anyway, none of the three people complained, after all, what the people said was that the group made up for the killing, and that was the enemy that Sang personally confessed.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the enemy who had thrown off a distance, and then recalled the scene when he bought a horse. Lao Qi was careful when choosing horses, and it took more than half an hour in the stable to select three batches of horses, and now it seems that there is a reason.
When you go out, you really have a lot to pay attention to.
Su Xiaoxiao admired the two people around her, and she was also glad to have such two people.
Amu's swordsmanship is very accurate, and the enemies in the front row have fallen one after another, but fortunately, the people behind him didn't bring bows and arrows, and probably didn't expect these people to have such great ability, right?
Su Xiaoxiao also wondered, it turned out that Lao Qi and Amu were so good, if they were taken out alone, they would also die if one person could deal with several people.
The car was very bumpy, and Su Xiaoxiao was shaking in the carriage and was about to vomit.
The carriage ran for more than two hours before it slowly slowed down.
Amu rode the horse behind him and followed the carriage, lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at Su Xiaoxiao, and made sure that she was okay, so he lowered the curtain.
Su Xiaoxiao listened to the speeches of the two men outside.
"We're going to ride a horse instead, and it's not good, and although I don't know whose grudge it is, it's certain that the man who came wants all three of us to die. So, I don't care who brought the enemy, let's go quickly, change the route, disguise ourselves, and we can still get there. "Lao Qi is so serious now, and Su Xiaoxiao is really a little uncomfortable.
She heard the discussion between the two people outside and lifted the curtain, "Then let's change course." ”
The three of them reached a consensus, Su Xiaoxiao sat back in the carriage, and Amu hurried to the next town as soon as possible, so that it would be convenient for a few people to modify and buy some clothes.
When a few people arrived in the town, the sky was already a little dark, the town was shrouded in the afterglow of the setting sun, people kept coming and going, and the day was over, walking on the street in twos and threes, giving people a sense of peace and tranquility.
Su Xiaoxiao looked outside through the window, for the first time in so many days, she enjoyed the scenery so comfortably. People are harmonious, kind, and beautiful. There is love to get along, such a country is considered a great virtue of the ruler, right?
Will Ling Anfeng become the ruler of this country in the future? Or, Ling Anyue? Or is it Ling Anxue?
Ling Anfeng's future is also unknown. Does he have all kinds of pressure in his heart? Could it be that you are also tired on weekdays?
"Xiaoxiao, you sit in the car and wait, we will come back to you after we go to buy something." Amu stopped the carriage, tied the reins of the carriage to a squatting stone pillar, patted the body of the horse, and turned his head to Su Xiaoxiao.
"Well, okay, you guys go and get back quickly." Su Xiaoxiao got out of the carriage, and the person sat where Amu was sitting just now, "Wait outside, feel safer." She explained.
Otherwise, inside, you will feel that you don't know anything, and if there are any bad people outside, Su Xiaoxiao won't know about it, then you won't even have a chance to escape.
Lao Qi smiled thoughtfully, "This thing has made you grow a lot." ”
Su Xiaoxiao didn't say anything, she had grown. You have to live your own life, don't you have to learn a little bit of these things! There is still a long way to go in the future, and if you die like this, how wronged you are.
Su Xiaoxiao sat in the carriage and looked around, this location should have been specially chosen by Amu, it was in the most prosperous area on the street, and it was more convenient for a few people to escape in such a place, even if there were bad people.
On the street, there are all kinds of snacks, there are children holding their mother's hands, standing in front of rock sugar gourds and stretching out their little hands to ask for them, there are elderly people standing on the side of the street eating roasted sweet potatoes, and there are couples standing next to masks and smirking...... In all kinds of scenes, Su Xiaoxiao is just a spectator.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the group of people thoughtfully, and suddenly became suspicious, all of them were killed? Who could have given such an order, the pursuers just now didn't see who it was, could it be Ling Anfeng? It's impossible, so if someone comes at Su Xiaoxiao, who will it be?
You don't have to think twice to get the answer. If the main target of these people is themselves, then the person who patted them must be Murong Tianxiang. Su Xiaoxiao has no enemies in the palace, he has only been in the mortal world for a few years, and he has been to only a few places, and he has seen so many people, and he has offended only one.
Murong Tianxiang!
However, she shouldn't be so bold again, right?
Su Xiaoxiao wasn't sure about her conjecture, but think about it, if Murong Tianxiang wanted to use this trip to Tianshan to get rid of Su Xiaoxiao, he really couldn't hire such a team.
However, she may not really have such a ability as a woman.
So, who offended this group of people? Old Seven? It doesn't look like it, how could he offend such a large number of people? If he had any enemies, he wouldn't dare to openly stand on the street and sell maps.
Then it's Amu, Su Xiaoxiao nodded lightly. Amu's quiet appearance in purple appeared in his mind again, maybe it was really him. Amu has always been particularly mysterious.
