Chapter 524: Tokens

Although they had been mentally prepared, no one could have imagined that the pursuers would come so quickly.

On the way to the no-man's land, if Qin Yining and Lu Heng hadn't calculated the right time to dodge, they would have almost come into contact with the 1,000 cavalry.

The pursuing team could only run behind the Minobu group, and each time there was no other way to vent their anger except to kick over the remains of the campfire in the camp.

"General, these rebels of the Minobu are not quite right! The direction of their escape is obviously the area of no man's land! ”

The general who led the team waved his hand solemnly, stopped the words of his subordinates, and his mind was already in chaos.

Obviously, the Minobu was forced by them to have no choice, and planned to take the baggage to the vast desert in the no-man's land to die. Even if you die, you don't plan to hand over the grain and grass!

This group of slaves is happy, but what about those who are ordered to track down?

Could it be that when the time comes, he can say to the Khan with a shy face: "I'm ashamed that we couldn't catch up with a group of old and weak soldiers with heavy baggage on horseback, and we didn't dare to chase them into no man's land!" ”

If they say this, they will all want to live!

"Chase! Speed up! Must dare to catch up with this group of people before they enter no man's land! ”

Seeing that the general was panicked, everyone who had always been calm under his head also became anxious, and hurriedly urged the soldiers who were gnawing dry food on cold water to quickly get on their horses and pursue.

When it comes to the major events of life and death, who dares to slack off?

But they chased all the way from the camp to the direction that was about to enter the desert, and they did not catch up with half a figure.

The horse's hooves stepped on the sand under their feet, watching the wind blow, and in the blink of an eye, a sand dune that was still quite large turned into a flat sandy field, and it was impossible to trace the footprints!

Look at the vast desert in front of you. Everyone cowardly tightened the reins and did not dare to take another half step.

The general who led the team was like ashes, and he swung his fist out of thin air, as if he would be able to dissipate the grievances in his heart in this way.

"General, what shall we do?" The lieutenant general looked at the desert in the uninhabited area under the bad weather and the rapidly changing landscape, and swallowed his saliva in fear.

If they say that they will continue the pursuit, I believe that few of these brothers will have the courage to rush in.

Everyone knows the terrible nature of this great desert in the no-man's land, the weather is bad, the landscape is always changing, the flat land can become a sand dune in a quarter of an hour, maybe a night's sleep can bury the sand alive, and there is no way forward here, because no one knows how far away the other side of the no-man's land is, what is there.

If you enter here, you will step into hell with half of your body.

No one has the guts to challenge it.

"Minobe's bunch of lunatics!" The general spat fiercely, gritted his teeth and said: "Deploy here and take care of all the vicinity of the no-man's land, I don't believe that this group of people in the Mino Department is not afraid of death!" They are the same number as us, and maybe it won't be long before someone escapes, and if you don't get one, you can catch up with their infighting! When the time comes, let's catch them alive and go back, and one will be enough for us to have an explanation. ”

"The general is wise!" Everyone saluted, and their hearts secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as they don't rush in and arrest people, anything!

The pursuers formed a group outside the no-man's land and opened a garrison position, waiting to open a big net to catch a big catch.

But how could these people understand the stubbornness and unity of the Mino tribesmen?

Qin Yining led the team to walk on a busy desert at this time, the wind swept the sand into the gaps of the turban, and sometimes the wind was so strong that she almost blew her down, but she still persevered, holding a horse dragging rice grain and water bladders in her hand, walking in front of the team.

Lu Heng also led the horse to follow her closely, and wanted to reach out to help her slender body when she was almost unable to take a step when the wind was blowing several times, but the hanging hand never fell on her, but wanted to be a guardian, so he opened his arms to protect her.

Looking at the two people at the front of the line, Uncle Arhan, Brother Chaganbala, and Brother Halbara all felt a little sour in their hearts.

They can all see that Lu Heng loves Qin Yining, but they can also see that Qin Yining's heart is tied to her husband, and she simply regards Lu Heng as a trusted partner.

Now that they are embarking on this journey together, every step they take, it seems that they are closer to death, and it seems that it is superfluous to care about who likes whom and who accepts whom.

If they can leave this no-man's land alive, it is because God has mercy on them.

Although they were also afraid, when facing a great desert that could not be walked anywhere, there was always a trace of coolness in their hearts, but they had no one to blame, because if they stayed in Dadu, maybe they would have been tortured to death by the Tatar court.

The nightmare of being enslaved, oppressed, and slaughtered has finally awakened, and they are able to control their own life and death, even in such a tragic way, as long as they have partners around them to persevere, they are satisfied.

Just when Qin Yining and his party entered the no-man's land, and the chasing soldiers were stationed outside the desert to form a big net waiting for them to run out of it, in the palace of the Great Zhou capital, Li Qitian stared at Li Guanwen in front of him with a sinking face, and said, "What did you say?" Say it again to me. “

Li Guanwen was frightened and knelt down, kowtowed again and again: "The Holy Lord is angry, slave maid, slave maid did hear that Prince Zhongshun took the personal soldiers of the palace out of the city. ”

As soon as the words fell, he saw Li Qitian grab the tea bowl and slam it on the marble floor, only to hear a crisp sound, and the broken porcelain pieces splashed on Li Guanwen's face, scraping out several blood marks, and he didn't dare to blink.

"The Holy One is angry!"

Li Qitian stood up angrily, slapped his big palm and angrily pounded the folds stacked on the table, "Xiao Zhixi, what a Xi Zhixi!" How dare you ignore me to such an extent! Resisting the decree and disrespecting it once is a big crime of killing the head, he really didn't want his life, he even dared to make a moth to the truth! He should have run away with the government soldiers, did he want to rebel? Come on, surround the palace of Zhongshun for me! I'm going to ask myself how those two old things in the Yao family and that slut taught their son! ”

The saint is angry, who dares to say half a word when Miani?

Li Guanwen was in a hurry, so he took people to actively prepare for the saint's departure from the palace.

At this time, fifty miles outside the city gate, Ji Zeyu was wearing a red fox fur like a flame, sitting on the silver-white horse that Xiao Xiao gave him, and his white and slender hand was holding a pitch-black horsewhip, standing sideways in the middle of the path.

Xiao Xiaole stopped the dark horse and smiled in surprise: "Ah Lan? Why are you here? ”

Ji Zeyu shook the reins, rode his horse closer, and although the spirit tiger guards behind him were silent, everyone tensed up.

Ji Zeyu's long eyebrows frowned slightly, and with a majestic sweep of his eyes, he looked at the elite tiger guards behind him uncomfortably, and their edges converged a lot.

"You're going to find the Qin Clan? Can't help it? ”

Xiao Jian's eyebrows also frowned, and he nodded: "In the past few days, I have been very flustered, and I always feel that if I don't go again, Sister Yi'er will have an accident." ”

Ji Zeyu frowned tightly and looked at the more angular and handsome face after the emaciation, pursed his lips and said, "You care about her so much?" ”

"Ah Lan, she is as important as life in my heart."

"But didn't you say it before, why don't you have a wife? Even if the Qin family is tens of millions of good, can her life alone compete with the lives of everyone around you? When you leave, aren't you afraid that the people in your family will be involved? I believe that even if something happens to the Qin family, she hopes that you can live well, take care of your family, and take care of her parents, instead of going out of Beijing without permission under such impulse. You must know that what you are doing now is touching the scales of the saints! ”

Ji Zeyu is an indifferent person, and he talks very little, but as long as he encounters something wrong, he will change his past habits.

Movingly, he leaped off the horse, and his sable cape was raised, revealing his slender legs hidden under the cloak and wrapped in black trousers.

He threw the whip to Huzi behind him and walked towards Ji Zeyu.

Ji Zeyu also jumped off the horse, and walked in front of the with his eyebrows.

His frown was much more wrinkled, and there was an extra line on his forehead, and the fire fox fur lined his jade-like complexion a little whiter.

Xiao Xiao sighed and patted him on the shoulder, and said in a low voice: "While the Holy Lord still trusts you now, you have to think of a way out as soon as possible." Don't wait until something really happens to catch you off guard. ”

Ji Zeyu glared: "If you don't act rashly, the saint will also trust you." Now I'm talking about you, why are you talking about me in reverse? ”

Xiao Xiao smiled and said: "You are still the same as when you were a child, you will say it when you are happy, but you have to be hard-mouthed." ”

Ji Zeyu glared at him again, but he didn't say anything to refute it, just asked, "Are you determined to go?" ”

"Yes. I have to go, or I'll regret it for the rest of my life. ”

"You are obviously not a high-spirited person, where is the calmness under so many years of experience? You say you don't want to regret it for the rest of your life, but there are always a lot of helplessness in life that make you have to make a choice, where is there anyone who really never regrets it? ”

"Ah Lan, I know your kindness. I have sent my grandparents and my mother to the Qin family, and my father-in-law knows about my departure, and he should help me take care of the affairs of the family. ”

Ji Zeyu saw that he had made up his mind, and there was no room for manoeuvre, so he had to sigh and say, "If you want to go, go ahead." Don't worry, I'll take care of it for you, too. ”

Xiao Xiao nodded movingly, and then said, "You have to be careful." Take my words to heart and make a way out early. ”

Ji Zeyu smiled faintly, "Don't worry, I'm different from you, you have a lot of concerns, and I don't have any family, I'm not afraid of anything." ”

"How can you really rest assured? No one could have imagined that our three brothers would come to this point now. Ah Lan, take care, I'll try my best to come back as soon as possible. ”

Seeing Xiao Xiao's solemn expression, Ji Zeyu also nodded, and handed the whip in his hand to Xiao Xiao, "You take this, the Long Xiang Army guarding the border is my old department, and nearly 100 of my cronies have infiltrated that team, and they all recognize my token." If you need it, take this whip and go to their leader, Tao Jun, who is now a lieutenant in the army, in his thirties, with a scar on his forehead, and an old smoking gun, which you can recognize at a glance. ”
