Chapter 17: Killing the Cliff Valley
"Are you your father's man?" The third prince was really very cultivated, and after Wang Ziyu showed impatience, he did not get angry, but asked directly. That's what he cares about.
"It's not." Wang Ziyu replied truthfully.
"Then you save your father...... emperor" The third prince seemed to have some scruples, and asked half the question.
"By chance, the road is uneven, and it is just a matter of drawing a knife to help." Wang Ziyu replied lightly. That's where it all comes from.
"Do you know that you saved your father's life and have offended many people?" This is to the point. The third prince really dared to say it. It seems that these three princes want to compete with the crown prince, but they are really not ordinary people. Dare to talk to a stranger about such in-depth words. Where did Wang Ziyu know that His Royal Highness was tempting. If it is not an enemy, then there is hope to be an ally. If it is an enemy, then he will not hesitate to kill it by all means.
"Yes."
"You know?" The third prince looked at Wang Ziyu in surprise. The original intention of the third prince is that do you know who you have offended? But for the sake of safety, he still didn't get it through.
"Haha, I feel it. Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, you don't have to be tempted. I'm not a prince, I'm just a ranger, and it was unexpected for me to passively get involved in this power struggle. If I had known in advance that person was His Majesty the Emperor that he might save people, I would have thought about it. Wang Ziyu felt that chatting like this was too cumbersome. Now that we have reached the territory of the three princes, we have invited you into the urn, and cowering may not be able to relieve the doubts of the three princes, so it is better to be happy.
"Childe is really refreshing. If you knew it was His Majesty the Emperor, you wouldn't be going to rescue? Did you know that this is also a capital offense? Even if the Assassins succeeded, they would kill you. After all, the less people know about this kind of unsightly thing, the better. ”
"yes. So even if you think about it, you will be saved. ”
"Why?"
"To live, of course. His Majesty the Emperor will be able to reduce the chaos of wars and chaos in this Daluo Empire, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and I, as a ranger, can rest assured that I can travel everywhere, instead of fighting endlessly. Wang Ziyu said sincerely. He was still counting on borrowing the hands of His Majesty the Emperor to turn this Daluo Empire into the Lily Empire, how could he not save it? What's more, the cat he raised is His Majesty's soul.
"Are you interested in joining?" The third prince suddenly jumped and said.
"Join? The third prince laughed. I'm a ranger, I don't have any fame, and it's not easy to get into the office. And once I enter the officialdom, I will deceive myself, and all kinds of power disputes will follow, and I am afraid that I will not be able to deal with it. Or be a ranger and worry-free. ”
"But do you have a way out now?" The third prince looked at Wang Ziyu with interest.
"What? Is the Third Highness trying to force me to join the ranks? Wang Ziyu replied lightly, ready to kill in his heart. This royal person is too domineering. Treat everyone as a pawn, and sooner or later I will use your royal people as pawns and step on them.
"That's not what it means. I mean, you saved your father, and this dispute is already involved, and if you are alone, I am afraid that it will be easy to be wiped out. From the moment you save your father, power conflicts are inevitable. The most important thing to protect yourself and those around you is to strengthen yourself. Therefore, in the future, it will be difficult for Childe to be a ranger. Unless......" The words of the Third Highness can be regarded as a heart-wrenching nest.
"Unless what?" Prince Yu raised his eyebrows and looked at the three princes.
"Leave the Great Luo Empire." The third prince said lightly, and then smiled at Prince Yu.
"Then if I don't leave the Daluo Empire, the Third Highness will sponsor me to join the ranks? How big is the official to start? Wang Ziyu suddenly became interested. It's not bad if you're an official and have fun. When you have done enough to be an official, you will be the princess again, haha, all kinds of experiences, it's still very cool. The only flaw is that it is easy to expose his daughter's body. Once the daughter is exposed, there will be more trouble. With so many wolves under the roots of this imperial city, I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to escape from their clutches. Unless it is protected in the name of His Majesty, it is relatively safe to enter the palace as a concubine. As long as His Majesty is here, no one dares to touch the concubines of the harem.
"Childe is a martial artist, I can recommend Childe to hold a position in the forbidden army." The third prince smiled slightly.
"Forbidden Army?" Prince Yu was stunned, isn't that His Majesty the Emperor's pro-army? If you can be in the forbidden army, then you can see Your Majesty often. If there is an opportunity, it can also be logically developed into an imperial concubine. That's all it takes, this life. Moreover, controlling the forbidden army first can be regarded as a basis for lily turning the Daluo Empire into a lily in the future.
"Exactly. I believe that you have saved the life of His Majesty the Emperor, as long as someone recommends it, you can enter it naturally. Although you can't be in command of the Forbidden Army at first, there are many opportunities to gradually become the commander of the Forbidden Army. Although these words were in the right hands, the third prince said it, and Wang Ziyu still took a breath of cool air. These three princes want to use his hand to control the forbidden army? What is this trying to do? Fight against the Prince? Or usurped the throne with the forbidden army? It's horrible. The forbidden army of 20,000 people is equivalent to a garrison division in the imperial city, which is too powerful. Moreover, the members of the forbidden army are all elites selected from all over the country of Daluo, and they basically have some martial arts, although there is still a very big distance from martial arts heroes like Wang Ziyu, but in the battlefield, the combat power is leveraged.
"Well, if that's the case, it's better to be respectful than to obey." Wang Ziyu pretended to hesitate for a moment, and then responded. Since it is in line with the common goal of both sides, and the forbidden army will gradually be in his own hands in the future, even if the Third Highness has any crooked thoughts, it will depend on his prince Yu's face.
"Come on, prepare a meal, feed the horses."
After lunch, His Royal Highness took three men in black and rushed to Daluo City with Wang Ziyu. According to the meaning of the three princes, without further ado. If the time is delayed too much and the prince gets too many opportunities to assassinate Wang Ziyu, I am afraid that Wang Ziyu will be worried about his life. After all, every time the assassination is chosen, the martial arts will continue to increase, and he will not be at ease until he sees Wang Ziyu's head. For the crown prince and the minister of state, Guo Deshuang, this prince Yu is a huge variable and must die. This time, Wang Ziyu's move has greatly disrupted their plans. For the crown prince, this is tantamount to greatly increasing the risk of usurpation, and it is not good to be ruined and ruined, and the corpses are scattered in the wilderness.
The fast horse galloped all the way, thirty miles out of Luonan City, and will enter the mountain road. The trail winds through the mountains, passing through a valley in between. The road in the valley is not too wide, only more than three zhang wide, and there are cliffs on both sides. This section of the road is about a mile long. Before entering the valley, Wang Ziyu held the horse in place. The third prince ran far in front and found that Wang Ziyu did not follow, so he turned around and asked the reason.
"Third Highness, the terrain of this place is dangerous, and it is a good place for ambushes. The front boundary is the Shuofang boundary, can there be horse bandits in this area? Wang Ziyu immediately thought of the important scenes of ambushing the enemy in various war movies, all of which were such deep mountains and valleys. Moreover, many important examples of warfare in military books are also ambushes set up at key passes. If the enemy sends one or two people to assassinate them, this prince Yu should not worry too much, at least the number is small and he can deal with it. And this canyon, the highest cliff, is as high as more than ten zhang. Judging from the range of his leaf dart attack, at this height, if someone attacks him with a strong crossbow bow or falling rock, it will be difficult for him to form an effective counterattack. Even if you are galloping through on a fast horse, if there are many people ambushed on the top of the mountain, the chances of survival are very low.
When he arrived at this valley mouth, Wang Ziyu's eyelids kept jumping. Is this a warning from heaven that he is in danger?
"Horse bandits? Childe wouldn't be worried that someone would ambush us here, would he? Sima Ci looked at Wang Ziyu and then at the valley.
"Exactly. Everything meets the conditions for an ambush here. Just imagine, if I were an enemy, I would definitely lay a heavy army here and try to win a single blow. Wang Ziyu replied.
"Can you see it from the top of the mountain?" The third prince asked a man in black. The man in black looked at it carefully and shook his head.
"Okay, then let's get off the horse. Leave one here to watch the horses, and the others divide into two teams, masked on the top of the hill, to see who is so bold as to ambush us. In the event of resistance, it is not a matter of killing. The third prince ordered. When Wang Ziyu heard this, these three highnesses really didn't cover it, and he was sober-minded at the critical moment, and he could think of this method in an instant. It's a lot better than stupidly rushing down this road. And with their kung fu, it should be much easier to clean up those ambushed guys at close range.
There was no doubt that Little Lotus had to stay in care of the horses. It is said that it is to watch horses, but it is not very useful. The horses were tied to the woods, and Wang Ziyu hid the little lotus behind a large rock next to him. Only then did he take a man in black and search for the top of the mountain from the left. I have to say that the third highness's subordinates are very strong, and this black man walked quickly in the forest, and he didn't even fall behind Wang Ziyu by half a step. Although Wang Ziyu did not go all out, he was also surprised. Sima Ci took two black-clothed men and touched the top of the mountain on the right.
When Wang Ziyu and the man in black approached the top of the cliff, they found a team of men and horses in front of them, all holding crossbows in their hands, masked, dressed in black, facing the bottom of the cliff, as if waiting for their prey. Wang Ziyu immediately stopped and hidden. The man in black followed him, hiding. Wang Ziyu listened carefully to the voices of those people, and counted the number of people, and there were twenty people. I rely on the strong crossbow of twenty people, plus if these people are also arranged on the other side, and rashly cross the valley, then it will be dead.
When Wang Ziyu heard the sound of a partridge on the opposite mountain, more than a dozen leaf darts shot at those people at the same time. Immediately, Wang Ziyu and the man in black quickly rose up and slaughtered the twenty people. It's so sudden. The sudden sound of a partridge just now, those people with crossbows were startled, and they were exchanging glances, trying to ask about the situation on the mountain, but suddenly a dozen leaf darts suddenly attacked from the back of their heads, and in an instant, seven or eight people fell to the ground and twitched there. The strong crossbow that was originally pulled apart let go at this moment, and suddenly the crossbow flew randomly, and two crossbow arrows hit their own people, and two more fell to the ground. And at this moment, Wang Ziyu and the man in black were killed.
A branch in Wang Ziyu's hand pointed over these people like a fairy scattering flowers, killing several people in an instant, only three of them were not injured, they had already turned around and aimed their crossbow arrows at Wang Ziyu and the man in black. Saying that it was too late, Wang Ziyu threw out several leaf darts again, and at the same time pounced forward, using the branch as a sword, and struck upward, instantly poking a samurai who was not hit by the dart throat, and the samurai was killed instantly. The moment the two samurai fell to the ground, a powerful crossbow was fired. A strong crossbow whizzed past Wang Ziyu's clothes, hitting the trunk with a thud, and making a buzzing sound. The other crossbow shoots directly into the air, piercing into the jungle and into the ground at the far end.
Wang Ziyu turned over, and at the moment when the two warriors were about to reload the crossbow arrows again, he stabbed out two swords and eliminated the two guys in an instant. These two guys' eyes widened when they died, and they couldn't believe that the master had calculated so well, how could he be the one who died? Until they died, they didn't understand what kind of sacredness was that attacked them.
As soon as the man in black came up, he aimed at those who had fallen to the ground after being hit by a leaf dart and were still trying to shoot. It's fast, wipe them all out. The team of twenty people died in less than half a minute.
Seeing that the battle was over, Wang Ziyu carefully examined the surroundings, looked at these black-clothed masked people, pulled their masks down, and groped around on their bodies for a long time, but did not find any proof of power. Just as he was wondering who had laid down the horses, there was a slight sound of feet stomping on leaves not far away. Wang Ziyu instinctively moved his gaze in that direction, and a green shadow flashed. Although it was a flash, this green shadow was somewhat familiar.
