Xilai is an inland town close to the Acropolis in the east and northwest, where the mountains and mountains are endless, and the narrow mountain streams that must be passed into the city are unknown. If a person with a heart sets up an ambush in the mountains, it will be difficult for the enemy to escape, and it will be extremely difficult to conquer.

A group of people passed by quickly, unconsciously slowing down their horses, and observing the surroundings vigilantly. After walking for several miles, Hua Mian was about to move forward, and saw that some human heads suddenly appeared on the two mountains not far ahead, and Hua Mian, who took the lead, reined in the reins of the horse, Wushan neighed, and after the person stood up, he stopped steadily. Seeing this, the group behind him immediately reined in and looked ahead.

Hua Mian made a visual inspection, and they were about three hundred paces away from the ambush, and beyond the range of the best bows and arrows of the time, and then said with internal force: "Who is the man on the hill ahead?" ”

As the words fell, a purple-clothed masked man stood up and raised his voice: "We are the purple-clothed guards, who were ordered by the emperor to arrest the eldest prince and Princess Ning Wan, who eloped in disregard of the national law. You'd better be restrained, or you're welcome. ”

Hua Mian and Ji Yunye looked at each other. Unexpectedly, the emperor really sent someone to arrest them, and also sent a purple guard. Could it be that he thought they really eloped, afraid that they would resist arrest?

Ji Yunye laughed at himself and said to Hua Mian: "Since someone came to pick us up, we might as well go back with them." With the protection of the purple guards, we don't have to worry about being calculated by others on the road. I just want to wronged you, and I may have to be tied back. ”

Hua Mian frowned slightly, always felt that something was wrong, and after a little thought, he said to the leader of the man: "Since you have been ordered by the emperor, we naturally dare not disobey, and please show the talisman." ”

The man said sharply: "I am waiting for the emperor's dictation, why do I need to be frugal? ”

Hua Mian's eyes lit up: "Since there is no rune, how can we believe that you are the emperor's people?" ”

The man snorted coldly and said to his subordinates: "Those who resist arrest, shoot and kill, and release arrows!" ”

Everyone was shocked, and when they saw the sharp arrows coming through the air like rain, they swung their swords to block, and it was difficult to get out for a while. The secret guard behind him drove forward and protected the five people of Hua Mian.

The rain of arrows shrouded them like an impenetrable net. Seeing the arrows of the two secret guards fall from their horses, Li Mo and Liang Yinchu glanced at each other, jumped and landed on the mountain walls on both sides, and with the help of the mountain rocks, like an eagle falcon spreading its wings to resist the wind, his body swept up, and he ran behind the enemy in an instant.

The rain of arrows suddenly stopped, and the sound of gold and iron handover came. Hua Mian looked up and saw that Li Mo and Liang Yinchu were each occupying a hill and fighting with the enemy.

Hua Mian, Ji Yunye and Ling Yue flew towards the mountain in unison. The remaining six Secret Guards followed.

There are a total of ten purple-clothed people on the cliffs on both sides, although their martial arts are not weak, they are obviously not opponents compared to Hua Mian and his party.

Seeing that he was invincible, he led the humanitarian: "Quickly retreat and wait for reinforcements." After saying that, he took the lead in escaping, and after a while, the rest of the people disappeared in front of him in a blink of an eye.

The secret guard wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Hua Mian: "Beware of their deception." For now, let's get out of here first. ”

After a few people descended the mountain, they quickly got on their horses, and without saying a word all the way, galloped towards the city.

It wasn't until they entered the city that they slowed down and seriously thought about what was happening outside the city.

Obviously, those people were definitely not sent by the emperor. They pretended to be the Purple Guards just to take their lives more easily. Their determination to get rid of them as soon as possible is evident in the fact that they use long-range and more powerful crossbow arrows instead of ordinary bows and arrows. Now that the assassination has failed, I wonder what their next move will be? I don't know if what the leader of the purple man said before fleeing is "waiting for reinforcements" or not?

However, before they could speculate on the truth or falsehood, as soon as they left the city of Xilai, they met fifty more purple-clothed masked men riding in the wilderness. When they saw their group, the leader made a gesture, and they immediately reined in and blocked the way tightly.

Hua Mian's eyes dimmed, it seemed that the person was not bluffing, they really went to move the rescue soldiers. These fifty people look really difficult to deal with, especially the person who is the leader, with a high-spirited posture, blazing eyes, and a strong and unfathomable body of true energy, at first glance, he is a master among the masters.

She whispered to Ji Yunye beside her: "You drag them first, and I will control them with a flute voice in the back." So saying, she turned her horse's head and walked backwards.

The purple-clothed leader raised his voice and said, "I am waiting for the emperor's order to arrest the eloped prince and Princess Ning Wan, and I hope you will cooperate." ”

Ji Yunye glanced at the people behind him, they immediately understood, quickly sealed their listening points, and then urged them to step forward and enter the formation.

When the purple-clothed leader saw that they were resisting arrest, anger suddenly surged in his eyes, and he said sharply: "Except for the eldest prince and Princess Ning Wan, the rest of the people will be killed." ”

The only Hua Mianwen who didn't have a blocked sense of hearing was stunned, but at this moment, the two sides were already fighting together, and she couldn't think about it much. She quickly placed the jade flute on her lips and sent out the music with internal force.

The purple-clothed guards shrouded in the shadow of the sword and sword only felt the strange sound of the flute in their ears, as if it was a requiem from hell, which taught them to tremble and show fear on their faces.

Seeing that his subordinates fell from their horses one after another, holding their heads and rolling, and after a while, there was no movement, the purple-clothed leader was shocked, and his long sword swept away, and the power was magnificent, forcing Ji Yunye and the others to retreat a few zhang away. Raise your eyes and look into the distance and blow immediately. Xiao's woman, he shouted angrily: "Princess Ning Wan disregarded the law of the country, disrespected the decree, and wantonly slaughtered the emperor's personal guards, which is a heinous and serious crime. If you are arrested, I may be able to intercede with the emperor to prevent you from dying, otherwise, for what you have committed, even if I put you to justice on the spot, the emperor will not blame you. Moreover, none of you are my opponents, and even if I am alone, I can take you all down. ”

What this person said was not false, just now his powerful move "Sweeping a Thousand Troops" has already shown them his strength. If Ling Yue's skill was not lost, he might be able to fight, but now his skill has only recovered by one percent, and with a few of them, it is just a small thing, and he is definitely not an opponent.

Hua Mian frowned and looked at the man, very puzzled in her heart, forty-nine of the fifty purple-clothed people had fallen off the horse, and he was the only one who was safe and sound, what was the reason?

Ji Yunye and the others had already unlocked the listening acupoint, and their expressions were solemn when they heard the words. Although they didn't know where this person was, they could feel a deterrent power from his momentum, and they all knew that this person should not be underestimated.

Hua Mian put the jade flute into his waist and said coldly: "Since you are not controlled by my Xiao Yin, you must be very human, I believe in your ability." This is the end of the matter, let the horses come. As he spoke, he rode forward to meet him.

The purple-clothed leader's eyes lit up, like a sharp knife out of its sheath, sweeping past the people in front of him, and when Hua Mian was about to get closer, he flew up and jumped onto Hua Mian's horse with the strength of Li Mo's horse body, and shot like electricity to light her acupoint.

This series of actions was like flowing water, but in the blink of an eye, when everyone reacted, the purple-clothed leader had already galloped wildly with Hua Mian riding his horse.

He turned his head and glanced at Ji Yunye and the others who were chasing after him, and said to Hua Mian: "I had no intention of hurting you, but today it seems that only by kidnapping you can I bring you to the emperor smoothly." ”

Hua Mian was shocked: "Aren't you the killers who came to take our lives?" ”

The purple-clothed leader said coldly: "I have already said that we are only here to arrest you on the orders of the emperor. ”

"Do you have a rune, then?" When Hua Mian asked this, she almost had the answer in her heart.

The purple-clothed leader took out the bronze talisman from his bosom and shook it in front of her eyes, "Can you see it clearly?" ”

It turned out that this person was the invincible Purple Guard Commander Fang Quan with the title of "Killing God".

Seeing Fu Jie, Hua Mian was shocked, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, linking the two interceptions together, only to know that they had fallen into the traitor's divisive scheme, so he said: "Stop, I'm going to save those purple-clothed guards." ”

Fang Quan was stunned for a moment, and Hua Mian hurriedly said: "They are not dead, they are only temporarily unconscious, and only my Xiaoyin can wake them up." ”

rushed back all the way, and the strings in Hua Mian's heart kept crumbling tightly. If she guessed correctly, there must have been someone's eyeliner near Fang Cai's battlefield. If he found out that those purple-clothed guards were not really dead, it would be easy to kill them with a sword. At that time, they will have a hard time arguing and they will indeed become heinous sinners.

Finally ran back to the wilderness, and saw the purple-clothed guard lying down in the distance, Hua Mianfei dismounted and galloped over. When she saw what was happening in front of her, she let out a long breath. Fortunately, no one has tampered with it.

Ji Yunye and the others then chased after her, and they all asked her suspiciously what happened.

Hua Mian said in a deep voice: "The first batch of purple-clothed people are indeed not the emperor's purple-clothed guards, but these people are indeed undoubted. ”

Everyone including Ji Yunye gasped. They looked at the only man in purple standing in disbelief, their eyes shining with a complicated light. They were all smart people, and it only took them a moment to connect the causes before and after.

The killer's purpose should be two. First, kill them; Second, if the assassination fails, they will be tempted to kill each other with the purple guards, and when the big mistake is made, even the emperor will not be able to protect them.

is a serial plan to kill people with a knife, Ji Yunye's eyes filled with grief and indignation: "Now that we have killed our father's purple guard, we have fallen for that person's scheme, I am afraid it will be difficult to clear the charge." ”

Hua Mian looked at Ji Yunye with a compassionate gaze, yes, fortunately, she is not as ruthless as those killers, otherwise I am afraid it will really be difficult to end. She reached out her hands and stroked his cheeks, a bright smile slowly blooming on her face.

Ji Yunye was stunned for a moment, and said inexplicably: "Why is Mian'er so happy?" ”

Hua Mian said: "Brother Ye is such a smart person who thinks they are dead, and thinks that the eyeliner thinks the same, so he carelessly missed the opportunity to kill people and blame the trouble, and it is estimated that the news of our destruction of the Purple Guards has been transmitted back to the palace, and I don't know what the court is going to become." ”

Hearing this, Ji Yunye was stunned and turned his head to look at the purple-clothed guard who was lying on the ground. He stepped forward to probe their snorts one by one, although the breath was weak, but there was still breathing, and his heart was suddenly overjoyed, he got up and hugged Hua Mian, and said incoherently: "I thought it was ...... Fortunately...... Thank you, Myanmar! ”

Hua Mian naturally understood why he was grateful to him, it was because she was kind and did not hurt their lives.

The sound of the flute rises again, this time it is no longer a requiem that disturbs people's minds and urges people's lives, but a soft and peaceful reinvigorating tune that awakens the soul. The wisps are fine and dense, like the revival of all things under the moisture of spring rain and regain vitality. When a fresh life blooms in front of them again, everyone's eyes are full of joy.

On the way back, Hua Mian beat the horse and Fang Quan side by side, because there was a question she hadn't figured out, that is, why he could not be controlled by her own Xiao Yin. When she asked this question, a sparkling smile appeared in Fang Quan's always condensed eyes, and he whispered, "I will only tell you one person about this matter, you have to keep it a secret for me." ”

Hua Mian was even more curious, so he swore and promised: "That's natural, I will definitely keep it secret for you, just tell me." ”

Fang Quan cleared his throat, his eyes flashed slightly, and said, "I have always known nothing about music, and I can't understand or sing. ”

Hua Mian opened her mouth wide in shock, and after understanding what he meant, she blurted out: "It turns out that you have a song loss disorder!" ”

As soon as this voice came out, everyone looked at them.

Hua Mian hurriedly covered her mouth and said, "I...... I didn't mean to, I was too surprised to keep my mouth shut, you have a lot of ...... Eh, why is your face red? Hey, what are you running, wait for me......"
