Chapter 170: Pulling Teeth from the Tiger's Mouth
The sunset was stained with blood, blurring a large area of beautiful red glow, but under the picturesque scenery, there was a just stop of killing.
Zhao Chen nested on the tree, listening to Xuanqing's low curse, while silently counting how many people were left in the Guan family.
ββ¦ An ostracized young lady, a door-to-door son-in-law, why are these guards of the Guan family desperately protecting? Xuanqing muttered bored, and asked in a low voice.
There were about 100 guards on the Guan family's trip, all of whom were good at one in a hundred, and the leader of the team was Guan Han's deputy general You Min.
In the battle between the two sides just now, although the Guan family guards were in a hurry at the beginning, they quickly set up a well-trained formation to meet the enemy, and even if they suffered more than half of the casualties, they did not give up guarding the carriage.
It wasn't until the "mountain bandits" saw that they couldn't take them down and took the initiative to evacuate, so that about half of them survived-
Zhao Chen watched coldly from beginning to end, and at this time he didn't mean to pay attention to Xuanqing, seeing that the Guan family's convoy hurriedly set off after packing up a little, she stepped lightly and continued to follow along the mountains and forests.
Why did Guan Han send someone to escort her wholeheartedly, Guan Qihao had already given her a clear answer before.
Life... Deadly handles-
After walking only five miles, Zhao Chen suddenly pulled Xuanqing and signaled him to shut up, while squinting his eyes and looking at the opposite side.
The mountains and forests on both sides of the official road are lush and dense, the dim sky does not penetrate at all, and in the unpredictable dead silence and darkness, the opposite side looks no different from her side...
At the same time, Meng Yong on the other side was also looking at her side, and ordered in a low voice: "Shen San, you lead people forward first." β
Shen San hesitated, quickly separated his hands and disappeared in front.
Zhao Chen retracted his eyes and turned to Xuan Qing, who was about to ask something, "How are those people of yours?" β
She still has self-knowledge to fight for power, so she borrowed someone from Xuanqing before, led by Yingchun and Han Feng, and rushed to wait about sixty miles outside Beijing in advance...
No matter what Meng Yong's purpose is, this time she will undoubtedly have to pull out her teeth-
Xuan Qing had a guess in his heart, gritted his teeth and asked, "Who is the other side?" β
"Mr. Meng..."Zhao Chen smiled, "So don't be caught again, I'm not Zhao Chen now, but I can't save you a second time." β
Xuanqing's feet couldn't help but be confused, and his face changed in an instant.
Last time in Guanghe Garden, if Zhao Chen hadn't taken the lead to take care of the matter, Meng Yong wouldn't have let him go easily, and even so, he still sent people to follow him afterwards...
He snorted: "Are you really afraid of him?" When the poor road walked the rivers and lakes, the stinky boy hadn't grown hair yet! The more he scolded, the lower his voice became, and finally he swallowed his saliva quietly and moved forward.
As the convoy moved forward, the night came, and the two sides of the official road became more and more silent, leaving only the imperceptible sound of stepping branches.
At this moment, the flames burst into flames, and the arrows roared into the sky.
The guards of the Guan family fell down in response, and the rest drew their knives one after another, and approached the carriage without hesitation.
The curtain of the car waved slightly, revealing the side face of Guan Qi Hao without the slightest expression.
"How could this surnamed Guan offend this kind of force..."Xuan Qing's lips twitched, and he couldn't even hear himself clearly, "Hey, if we don't make a move, they're going to die..."
Twenty, nineteen... Zhao Chen silently counted people, until You Min, who was blocking in front of the car, was pierced through the arm by a sword, and the sharp sword passed through the body and pressed against Guan Qihao-
The change suddenly occurred, and a group of people rushed out from behind the killer, looking at the same costumes as the Guan family guards, as if they were bright and dark.
"Guan Han really put a lot of thought into it." Zhao Chen whispered, not without pity.
She had been waiting just now, waiting for the moment when the Guan family's guards couldn't hold on, in addition to testing whether anyone was secretly there, she also wanted to test Meng Yong's position...
The journey after that was still not smooth, and the killer seemed to have a tentative idea, ambushing on the way in batches, appearing in waves to wear down the guards of the Guan family.
When the convoy was 60 miles away from Beijing, there were few guards left again, and You Min was seriously injured and could only lean on the body.
"Hand over the things, or I'll kill you right now!" You Min suddenly turned to the car, and the knife reached Guan Qi Hao.
The quality of the killers completely exceeded their previous expectations, and escorting them out of a hundred miles was simply an impossible task.
Guan Qihao was bleeding from his neck, and smiled slightly, "General, fight until no one protects you, and you can't escape this catastrophe below, then you will accept your fate below, and someone will return the things as promised, but if you kill themβ"
"At the latest, tomorrow morning, things will be scattered," he smiled, "so if the general wants to be loyal, he should be relieved to stay with him and wait for death!" β
You Min's eyes were bloodshot, and he heard his comrades fall to the ground one by one, and the knife was getting tighter and tighter, but he moved away at the end and slashed at the killer who touched behind him.
The dark night flowers bloomed, the flowers were red, and with the death of life, the carriage was moving forward again, but it was doubly lonely.
You Min, the only one who survived, supported his body with a knife in one hand and held the reins of a horse with the other-
Zhao Chen turned away to look at the other side, and said softly: "If Meng Yong shows up first, let's just watch, wait until Baili, and then give me a chance to get close to Guan Qihao." β
Xuan Qing nodded and made a few gestures behind him, and the subordinates who had already converged were ordered, and they all jumped up and quietly followed.
Less than seventy miles from Beijing, an arrow suddenly shot out from Meng Yong's side and drove into the carriage with precision.
The strong wind blew the curtain of the car, which also made Zhao Chen, who had just shown surprise, wrinkle his eyebrows, the arrow did not hit Guan Qihao, but there was something like a strip of cloth tied on it...
The curtain of the car fell in an instant, and You Min outside the car stopped slowly, and turned his knife in the direction where the arrow came from.
"It's okay, keep walking." Guan Qihao's faint voice came out.
Outside the Sanshan Gorge, the road is getting narrower, the horse-drawn carriage is on the mountain road, and there is no dense forest around, and there are rocks all over it.
Zhao Chen looked at the terrain and said lightly: "Let's keep up closely, and the rest of the embellishment..."
It was only half a moment into the mountain, and the way was blocked by a group of face-hiding killers.
Guan Qihao leaned out of the car and asked with a smile: "Do you really want to let my husband and wife live?" β
The sound of the long knife unsheathed seemed to answer him; You Min, who was already at the end of the crossbow, held a knife to meet him.
Zhao Chen's hand fell on the short blade, ready to go-
"Involving the general and others, Xu has a sin, if there is an afterlife, he should repay it!" Guan Qihao smiled and said.
In Zhao Chen's stunned gaze, he raised his whip, and the carriage suddenly rushed outward, in the direction of a deep gorge of more than ten zhang...
Zhao Chen didn't think about it, his internal force was violently raised, and he was about to stop him, but there was a sharp palm wind behind him.
Looking back suddenly, a pair of extremely familiar dark eyes came into view, and Xuanqing was also entangled by Shen San and Su Yan at this time, and Yingchun was approaching in the distance...
This person not only wanted to watch Guan Qihao die, but also stopped her people from saving her-
Zhao Chen's cold eyes did not dodge or dodge, he was slapped by Meng Yong, and with the help of his strength, he retreated sharply and went straight to the carriage that was still rushing.
Only ten zhang apart, she could even see Guan Qihao's subtle expression, he was smiling at her, his lips slightly opening and closing...
Behind her, Meng Yong attacked her again, already revealing a hidden killing intent-
