Between the mountains and forests a few miles away in Wannian County, Qi Bin, Wang Hu and several other East Palace guards looked at Li Chengming's figure who disappeared into the mountains and forests, and their faces were full of anxiety.

"What should I do, Brother Wang, His Royal Highness ran over alone, it's too dangerous, let's hurry up and follow!" As he spoke, Qi Bin looked at the direction in which Li Chengming disappeared and was about to rush out there.

"Stop!" Wang Hu on the side directly pressed Qi Bin and shouted in a low voice, "You rushed out so recklessly, did you want to kill His Highness?" ”

"Brother Wang, if you let me go, I'm going to save Your Highness!" Qi Bin said with an anxious face.

"Don't worry, I know that everyone is worried about His Highness's safety, but now that His Highness has gone down the mountain, with His Highness's speed, it is impossible for us to catch up with him, if we rush down the mountain so recklessly, not only will we not be able to help His Highness, but will alarm those scouts under the mountain, so we must be careful!" Wang Hu said in a deep voice.

"So what are we going to do, are we going to wait here?" A guard on the other side.

"Naturally, we can't wait here, everyone be careful, don't make too much noise, save yourself from alarming those rebels below, and make Your Highness dangerous." Wang Hu pondered for a moment, and then looked at Qi Bin on the side and said, "Qi Bin, you take His Highness's immortal beast down from the other side, the immortal beast is too big, it's not easy to follow us, when the time comes, look at our signal, if something happens, dare to come over to escort it immediately, do you understand?" ”

"Okay, Brother Wang, I'll take the immortal beast down from the other side immediately!" Qi Bin nodded.

"Okay, let's go!" Seeing that everyone understood, Wang Hu nodded directly, and then waved his hand, leading more than a dozen guards to quietly descend the mountain below.

……

Not mentioning the guards behind him, Li Chengming's figure leaped between the mountains and forests like a spirit ape, and in less than ten breaths, he had already crossed several miles to the bottom of the mountain, and then stopped on a tree next to the official road, looking at those figures only a few dozen meters away through the leaves on the tree.

These people were all dressed in leather armor, armed with horizontal swords, crossbows, etc., fully armed, and even the war horses beside them were extremely tall and strong, obviously war horses on the battlefield.

"Third brother, haven't we all found out clearly, those people in Wannian County should be the people His Highness asked us to find, why don't we go back and report back?" In the middle of the mountains and forests, I saw a young man with a somewhat thin body and a nose larger than ordinary people opening his mouth and asking a big man with a three-inch beard on his face beside him.

"Naturally, I want to go back, but when I went over just now, it felt like something wasn't quite right with these people." The middle-aged man looked in the direction of Wannian County and said in a deep voice.

"What's wrong, third brother?" The young man wondered.

"Didn't you notice it when you went to Wannian County to inquire about the news just now? There were too few soldiers on the walls. The middle-aged man who was called the third brother flashed a glint in his eyes, and then said, "When we came out, when Shangguan gave us an order, he said that there were at least thousands of people in this group of rebels, even tens of thousands, but when we went to the outside of the county to find out the news just now, the guards on the city wall were afraid that there were not even three hundred. ”

"Hey, yes, I was also so sad just now, hearing you say that, I just remembered that there are too few guards in this city, right? Is it all in the city? The young man said.

The third brother shook his head and said, "I don't see it, I have secretly observed these people for a long time, and found that their faces are a little tired, as if they haven't slept for a long time, if there are really tens of thousands of troops in the city, it is impossible to let only these hundreds of soldiers defend the city." ”

"Then third brother, do you mean that there are no tens of thousands of troops in this city, or are these people not the people ordered by His Highness to let us find, but another group of thieves?" The young man asked suspiciously.

"I don't know, now that the city gate is closed, there is no movement inside, and we can't guess the news when we look outside, so I plan to leave thirty people here to continue to inquire about the news." As he spoke, the man named Third Brother looked at the young man and said, "Sun Hong, you immediately take the rest of the people back now to report the matter here to the brigade commander, and then let him decide!" ”

"Yes, Third Brother!" The young man Sun Hong bowed solemnly, and then was about to leave.

The third brother, Sun Hong and others did not expect that the conversation between the two of them had already fallen into Li Chengming's ears.

Li Chengming, who was sitting on the treetops, listened to the conversation between the two below, and suddenly felt a little happy in his heart, fortunately Qi Bin and the others found these scouts before, and then reported them to themselves, otherwise if these scouts were allowed to find out their real strength now, I am afraid that it would be troublesome next.

Seeing that the young man named Sun Hong was gathering people to leave, Li Chengming jumped like a big bird over the official road in the middle and landed on a big tree on the scout's side.

"Who is it?!" Hearing the voice, all the scouts quickly turned around and searched, but there was no one to be seen.

When he was suspicious, he suddenly saw a scout pointing to a big tree and said, "There!" ”

The scouts followed the prestige, and saw that at some point, a thin figure was standing on top of a big tree about ten meters away from them.

Looking at the thin figure standing on the trunk of the tree, all the scouts couldn't help but be stunned, but this time, the third brother of the leader of this scout, had his pupils shrinking sharply.

The third brother is the temporary leader of this scout team, and he is also the only one in the entire scout team who knows what they are looking for this time, that is, the fifth son of the former prince Li Jiancheng, Li Chengming, the king of Runan County.

In fact, the brigade commander who led their team of scouts this time was his fellow countryman, the two have known each other for decades, and the third brother once blocked a knife for this fellow countryman, so the friendship with this fellow villager can be said to be irreversible.

And it is precisely because of this relationship that the third brother knows many things that others don't know.

According to his fellow villagers, this time His Royal Highness the King of Qin sent them out to find the king of Runan County Li Chengming is not simple, it is said that not only will the demon law, but also have a demon beast two or three zhang high and four or five zhang long under his hands, Mingdemen was attacked at night last night, it is said that only the king of Runan County and the demon beast came, and the result was that Mingdemen was broken, hundreds of people were killed and wounded, and even the son of General Wei Chi, Mingdemen Captain Chi Baolin died.

And it is said that Li Chengming, the king of Runan County, is just a child about five or six years old, just like the person in front of him.

The third brother's fellow townsman once said that if he saw the king of Runan County, he would flee quickly, as long as he fled back and brought back the news of the king of Runan County, it would be a great achievement, and he must not fall in love with the war.

But who would have thought that they cautiously left Wannian County ten miles away, but they met the king of Runan County here.

In that case......

All the thoughts in his mind didn't even have a second, the third brother looked at Li Chengming who was standing on the tree pole, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and then he directly and decisively raised the crossbow in his hand and pulled the trigger.

Shout! Shout!

Two powerful crossbows shot out from the crossbow machine in a row, and then passed through the void like lightning and shot directly in front of Li Chengming.

Burst! Burst! ~~~

Flowers burst out, and Li Chengming stood on the tree, his eyes wide, and his face was full of disbelief as he looked at the arrows stuck in his body......
