Chapter 228: Assassination
Sighing heavily, Chi Jingyu didn't know why Bai Wushuang had this kind of sigh, but he still patted her back distressedly.
An Guiren had a miscarriage, he knew it, and he also knew the pressure that Bai Wushuang had formed during this time.
This kind of thing is in anyone's heart, and anyone who understands it can know the warmth and coldness of people, and no longer brings up this topic, asking: "Do you want to go with me this time to suppress bandits?" ”
Chi Jingyu rarely took the initiative to invite Bai Wushuang, Bai Wushuang nodded, and said without hesitation: "Okay, does the emperor let you leave tomorrow?" ”
There were a lot of things that happened in one day, lying in Chi Jingyu's arms, smelling the familiar smell was extremely reassuring, and his eyelids couldn't help fighting, and he gradually fell asleep in Chi Jingyu's arms.
Chi Jingyu looked down and saw the even breathing sound of the lovely child in his arms, knowing that she was tired, he gently put her on the bed and covered her with a quilt intimately.
When Bai Wushuang woke up the next day, the genius was bright, and he seemed to fall asleep after remembering that he came back yesterday and talked to Chi Jingyu about going to suppress bandits together.
looked at his side, Chi Jingyu was not there. got up and put on his clothes and walked into the hall, and saw that Chi Jingyu had already prepared breakfast.
"Wake up so early?" Seeing Bai Wushuang get up, Chi Jingyu pulled her over and sat on the edge of the table, and put a bowl of porridge in front of her.
Receiving Chi Jingyu's intimate service, Bai Wushuang raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Yesterday, I fell asleep so early, and you won't get up when I wake up, and you are going to go on the expedition today?" ”
"Well, the task of suppressing bandits can't be delayed, so I'm going to leave in a while." Chi Jingyu had already gotten up early, ready to take things with him on the march.
Knowing that he was about to go on the expedition, Bai Wushuang did not delay, quickly finished breakfast and went back to the house to change his suit.
After deciding to bring everything with them, the two of them left the city, and the army had already formed a formation outside the city.
The bandits all gathered in Xishan, and it had long been heard that bandits in Xishan were rampant, and they would kill and rob people when they met them.
Chi Jingyu rode on the horse, taking the lead, and Bai Wushuang followed.
The terrain of the West Mountain is complex, surrounded by woods and grass, and it is easy to ambush.
As they walked, the soldiers scanned the grass with their spears, fearing an ambush.
There was nothing abnormal halfway up the mountain, Chi Jingyu asked the adjutant general to take the soldiers to repair in situ, and he went to the front to explore the way.
Bai Wushuang couldn't rest assured, so he naturally followed.
The two climbed for a while, and found that the West Mountain did not have the black smoke miasma as they imagined, and it was calm and unspeakable.
He even began to wonder if the bandits' rumors were true.
"This green mountain and green water really make me unimaginable that this is actually a bandit's den." Bai Wushuang was stunned by the beautiful scenery in front of him, there was no so-called industrial pollution and indiscriminate deforestation in this era, so the natural scenery here was pure and pollution-free, and the fresh air was refreshing.
"yes...... Be careful, twins! Chi Jingyu and Bai Wushuang stood side by side, and when they raised their eyes, they just saw the black-clothed man coming from all directions, holding a sword, and the blade of the sword was completely facing Bai Wushuang.
Chi Jingyu held Bai Wushuang in his arms, and kicked the man in black to the ground with a kick of his right leg.
The next few black-clothed men attacked the two of them together, and the long sword moves in their hands were aimed at their vital points.
Bai Wushuang was tightly held in his arms, and when he saw a man in black, he was shocked, and grabbed Chi Jingyu's clothes with both hands.
It's not that she's scared, it's that she doesn't want to distract Chi Jingyu.
Chi Jingyu hugged people with one hand and dealt with the man in black with the other, and he was still able to do it easily at the beginning, but later he became more and more difficult, outnumbered, his arm tightly protected Bai Wushuang, and he had already added a few knife cuts.
Bai Wushuang smelled the strong smell of blood, and couldn't tell whether this was Chi Jingyu or the enemy, and he knew very well in his heart that if it dragged on like this, Chi Jingyu would definitely not be able to bear it.
The brain is running rapidly, these people must not be bandits, if they are bandits, it is impossible to wear black clothes in one more move, right?
So if not, who are these people?
And how do you know when and where they will be alone?
Could it be that there are also traitors in the army?
Before he had time to think about a series of questions, he saw that Chi Jingyu had an extra wound on his body, and he bit his lip and didn't dare to speak, for fear of distracting Chi Jingyu.
It's just that no matter how well he protects it, Bai Wushuang will inevitably be stabbed and injured in the end.
Just when Chi Jingyu was at a disadvantage, a group of men in cloth clothes rushed from the mountain, holding big knives in their hands, and attacked the man in black with great momentum.
It's still the same old truth, outnumbered, the man in black saw that the situation was not good and hurriedly retreated, Chi Jingyu was seriously injured and looked at this group of people with a vigilant face while holding Bai Wushuang, not knowing if they were friends or foes.
Seeing this, Bai Wushuang didn't feel any hostility from the other party, so he got out of Chi Jingyu's arms and barely supported his body with his body.
"Are you from the court?" The big man in green clothes and a beard who took the lead, holding a knife with a rude air, asked in his throat.
As soon as he saw Bai Wushuang and Chi Jingyu's clothes, he guessed their approximate identities.
"Yes, you are ......" Bai Wushuang had already guessed in his heart, and he didn't have the heart to complain about their bad luck.
After being assassinated, I thought I was rescued, but it turned out to be a group of bandits.
"Come on, arrest them for Lao Tzu and take them into the mountains to obey the orders of the eldest brother." With a wave of his hand, the group of junior brothers behind him stepped forward and tied Bai Wushuang and Chi Jingyu together.
Chi Jingyu wanted to resist, but Bai Wushuang hurriedly and secretly pulled his sleeve to ask him not to make a move.
The fact that the bandits did not kill them immediately means that there is still a chance to talk.
If they risk their lives now and resist stubbornly, they will only suffer the loss.
Escorted up the mountain, the bandits were so shrewd that they couldn't get the word out to the soldiers.
After being taken into the mountain, the big man in green did not delay for a moment, so he took them to a tent to meet their eldest brother Wang Anke.
"What are you doing here? Lao Tzu asked you to save people, but you tied people up for Lao Tzu, what are you doing? Wang Anke was startled when he saw the big man in green bringing the two of them to him, he had heard from the mountain patrol that two people were surrounded and attacked by the men in black.
So he sent his second brother Lu Jiong to rescue him, but he didn't expect this stinky boy to tie someone up for him.
He hurriedly bent down to personally untie Chi Jingyu and Bai Wushuang, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, my second brother is a big boss, maybe he misunderstood what I meant, and he actually tied you up, I'm really embarrassed." ”
"Who are you?" After Bai Wushuang was untied, he hurriedly went to help Chi Jingyu up.
When she saw that Wang Anke looked like a scholar, it was hard to imagine that such a person would be a bandit leader.
"In the lower king Anke, he is barely the eldest brother of the brothers on this mountain." Wang Anke did read for a few years, and later had some accidents at home and was not allowed to go up the mountain to be a bandit, but although he was the boss of the bandit's nest, he was yearning for literature, so he was a scholarly and literary, and saw Bai Wushuang's eyes full of doubts when he looked at him, and smiled: "I just heard that the little brother who patrols the mountains reported that the two of you were besieged and killed, so I sent my second brother to help, but I didn't expect ......."
Seeing that what Wang Anke said didn't look like he was lying, Bai Wushuang slowly let down his guard, no matter what, and this Wang Anke's attitude towards himself and himself was too different, the other party did save them, and this bandit brother personally untied them.
Chi Jingyu relied on Bai Wushuang to barely support him, his body had suffered too many wounds, and his body was bleeding too much, and he was about to faint.
Seeing this, Bai Wushuang hurriedly supported him, and asked urgently: "Brother Wang, can you help me find a place for Jing Yu to lie down, I have to treat his wounds now." ”
"There's a bed in the back room, girl, you can use it." Wang Anke was a little surprised that Bai Wushuang was not afraid of danger, and then said to Lu Jiong: "Look at it, don't let Lao Tzu help the girl to help this son in." ”
When Lu Jiong heard this, he didn't have time to speak, so he hurriedly went up to help Bai Wushuang help Chi Jingyu in.
Bai Wuwei Wang Anke gave a grateful look and put Chi Jingyu lying flat on the bed.
Because of the trouble, Bai Wushuang directly cut all of Chi Jingyu's shirt, revealing his strong chest, all of which were knife wounds.
Fortunately, I always carry the medical bag with me.
After skillfully cleaning the wound, Bai Wushuang took out the gold sore medicine and sprinkled it on the wound, holding gauze to carefully wrap each wound, and after a while, Chi Jingyu's upper body was basically covered with gauze.
After dealing with Chi Jingyu, he walked out and saw Wang Anke, smiled politely, and said, "Brother Wang, can I borrow a set of clothes from you for my father-in-law." ”
"Of course, you can." Without saying a word, Wang Anke asked someone to prepare a set of his clean clothes, looked at Bai Wushuang's extraordinary clothes, and asked, "Dare to ask the girl, who are you?" Why was it assassinated? ”
"Before answering your words, Brother Wang, I want to take the liberty of asking you something." Bai Wushuang hesitated for a moment, thought about it, and was not busy answering his question for the time being.
She was now suspicious of the rumors.
"Girl, you ask." Wang Anke looked at Bai Wushuang with a puzzled expression.
"Brother Wang, what I want to ask is whether the rumors outside the city gate under this mountain are true? Have you really done anything to kill, injure and loot? Bai Wushuang had a brief contact with Wang Anke today, and felt that Wang Anke didn't want to be that kind of bandit leader, and she also took a rough look at the village on the mountain, which was not as coarse as she imagined, but rather orderly.
"Who dares to spread rumors like this, Lao Tzu went down and cut him down, the eldest brother has never disdained to do this kind of thing, all the food on this mountain is purchased by the eldest brother!" Lu Jiong had just come in when he heard what Bai Wushuang said, and he stopped doing it as soon as he heard Bai Wushuang's words.
