Chapter 38: The Line Between Life and Death

Previous Chapter

Gu Beiyang's physique is very special, and he belongs to the kind that is particularly easy to cause trouble.

Assassinated by this one today, framed by that one tomorrow, if he doesn't provoke others, others will provoke him to death. Some people hate Gu Beiyang's talent, some people hate Gu Beiyang's talent, and even more jealous of Gu Beiyang's appearance. This has to be said, appearance is natural, and it is not his fault.

Today is the autumn hunt, and among the 360 days in the year of Dongchen, 330 days are festivals, which is also a big day. There are too many powerful people in Kyoto, and everyone doesn't want to lose their face, except for Nozoki, everyone lives very restrained, for fear of accidentally leaving a criticism on people.

Xiyue doesn't care about this, anyway, the criticism of Xiyue has spread to the point that no one wants to care.

The autumn hunt is to let these powerful people spread joy in the name of righteousness, can it not be a big day.

Dongchen Wang dragon pattern riding costume, a longbow in hand, shoots the first arrow representing the beginning of the autumn hunt, explodes in the air for 100 days of fireworks, and randomly opens the gate to release the prey. Hunting is not divided into men and women, as long as they are good at riding and archery, they can participate, so to speak, except for Xiyue, all the ladies choose to stay in the station.

Xiyue could have stayed in the station, she stayed for half a cup of tea, and she really couldn't understand what everyone said, which family's rouge is good, which family's rouge is made of what pollen, which lady's family is about to get married again, and which family's son-in-law is going to get famous again......

In the face of these, Xiyue chose to ride a horse and whip, riding in the dust, and ran without a shadow.

There was a shout from the hunt, Xiyue turned the horse's head and went to observe, it turned out that Xiao Pepper shot an arrow at a deer, and the arrow hit the deer in the eye.

Xiyue felt that it was nothing, but when she saw that everyone was clapping and applauding, it was not good to be an uninteresting person, and she clapped her hands and applauded, and she also clapped her hands, and everyone else was fine, as soon as she clapped her hands, she met Xiao Pepper's eyes before the good words were called.

Xiao Pepper politely called the county lord, and Xiyue was covered with goosebumps, and had to reply with a reply, Princess Miao Miao is good, the two of you come and go, and you are fighting in your mouth.

"I've heard for a long time that the county lord doesn't like red makeup and loves arms, and the embroidery skills were tied that day, and the county lord and I were not happy, I don't know if I can appreciate my face today?"

Xiyue wanted to reply more, but she didn't appreciate it. But the onlookers wanted Xiyue to appreciate her face, and took the bow and arrows, and she glanced at the person who handed the bow, "You have a lot to do, walk carefully at night, this county will mainly beat you with a stick."

Xiyue and Little Pepper were one person and one horse, side by side, and the cheers around them continued, and some people shouted for Xiyue to come on.

Xiyue thought, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you.

The disappointment came too quickly, Xiyue thought too seriously about how to beat the man who handed the bow, and she didn't hear the bell, and when Pepper ran to the point where she could only see the horsetail, she hadn't come back to her senses.

A princess stepped forward boldly and patted the longbow that was afraid of Xiyue: "County Lord, the game has begun." ”

Only then did Xiyue come back to her senses, and she couldn't even see Pepper's ponytail.

In this case, ordinary people will definitely chase with a whip, is Xiyue an ordinary person? Obviously not, so Xiyue dismounted in full view of everyone, handed back the bow and arrows to the man who was there, and squeezed through the crowd and walked away in full view.

Leaving the crowd, a long whistle sounded, and a black horse ran to Xiyue's side from the forest, rubbing his head against it, "Eat so much?" What should I do if I can't run for a while? ”

The black horse seemed to understand, the hooves kept swaying on the ground, Xiyue got on the horse, clean and scattered, patted the head of the black horse, and the black horse ran up, like a wind and thunder, the red horse and the black horse, the dust went away, the horse whipped up, so unhappy.

The little pepper over there is full of shots, but she doesn't hide it, and when the prey shoots to the attendant and can't take it, she realizes that something is wrong, no matter how bad Xiyue's riding skills are, she won't have kept up by now, not to mention that she can't be a person with bad riding skills.

Little Pepper returned the same way, and when he came back, he was a group of prey, and when he returned to the starting point, only the man who handed the bow and arrow remained in place, smiling flatteringly.

"Your county lord hasn't come back yet?"

"The county lord said, Princess Miao Miao rode and shot. Exquisite, the county lord is stupid, so he doesn't want to be bored, and he doesn't want to be openly humiliated, so he goes back first. ”

The bow in Pepper's hand shattered in response, and she hunted with all her might in front of her, just wanting to win against Xiyue, but Xiyue didn't plan to deal with her at all, and didn't even give her a chance to make a move. If it were you, would you be angry?

Xiyue despised Little Pepper again and again, and her noble dignity was trampled on again and again, which is probably because you didn't intend to pass through the hall, but it caused a flash flood.

Xiyue was lying on the lawn, holding a dog's tail grass in her mouth, her arms resting behind her head, her legs crossed, and the black horse drinking water in the stream. If it weren't for Shi Moer's three-handled hidden arrows, the years would indeed be quiet.

Xiyue rolled on the ground three times in a row, and it was this seemingly random three rolls, which happened to dodge the three sleeve arrows thrown by Shi Mo'er impartially, "Mo'er, today's beautiful day, why do you need to do such a beautiful thing?" ”

"But the scenery is more beautiful, I'll send you to see it." Shi Moer's body is much more exquisite, the killers are all mass-produced, everyone has learned the same, the suitable ones are like tigers, and the unsuitable ones are dead.

Shi Mo'er belongs to the middle between suitable and unsuitable, like a tiger with wings and the possibility of death without a whole body, so Xiyue forcibly changed Shi Mo'er's body method intentionally or unintentionally when she fought with Shi Moer.

Over time, Shi Mo'er became more powerful, and Xiyue felt that she was purely looking for trouble, teaching others to become stronger and then killing herself.

"Yo, what's going on? I advise you to save some effort, just to see that the princess of Beiluo's face is more ugly than the fly that has just eaten fly feces. ”

Xiyue punched Shi Mo'er's sleeve arrow, gasped and said, "Can't you just say that her face is more ugly than eating?" ”

"No, this son is a civilized person, and he can't say such vulgar words."

"When there is thunder in the sky, you are the first to split."

"That's a good feeling."

Xiyue squatted by the stream, picked up the water with both hands and rubbed it on her face, after washing off the sweat and dust, her face was much whiter, and her wet hair was attached to her forehead, less heroic and more delicate.

Sang Zi was depressed, and before the words in Xiyue's mouth could be spoken, there was an explosion from the station.

Xiyue's expression changed, this is clearly the sound of cannons, autumn hunting has to be light, cannons are extremely powerful, the range is extremely wide, everyone is lightly armed, this one with cannons is either stuck in the brain, or he doesn't want to live, or he is an assassin. Although it is common knowledge in all countries that hunting will be assassinated, but with cannons, Xiyue still experienced it.

The sound of cannons came from the station, and the people over there, except for King Dongchen, were mostly ladies who could not even escape for their lives.

"Thunderbolt!" Hearing Nozoki's voice, the dark horse ran in front of him like thunder and lightning, "This time you really have to run well." ”

Xiyue ran in the direction of the station, the Praetorian Guards suffered heavy casualties, most of the chest injuries were blown, it seemed that the cannonballs were blocked by their bodies, dozens of shields and long swords surrounded the tent, yellow and black teams, yellow was the Praetorian Guard guarding King Dongchen, and black was naturally an assassin, because the cannon came unexpectedly, although King Dongchen dodged, he was also smoked black.

When he saw King Dongchen and Zhenguo Hou facing the enemy back to back, Xiyue knew that this group of assassins was going to be unlucky. actually chose to assassinate when Zhen Guohou and all the masters of Dongchen were there, and I didn't know what I was thinking.

The sound of the cannon started again, and a belt of artillery shells attacked the king of Dongchen, Xiyue jumped in front of him, and the wind in his palm was actually soft and soft, changing the trajectory of the cannonball, and with all his palm, the cannonball flew to no man's land and exploded.

"Xiyue is late to save the car, I hope my uncle will not blame." Xiyue couldn't help but laugh when she saw King Dongchen's black stains.

"I know it's too late, get out of the way, and stop your uncle and me from showing off my skills." King Dongchen thought, how could he not lose face in front of his niece, and pushed Xiyue behind him.

Regardless of whether King Dongchen is polite or polite, after all, fighting is a very tiring thing, as soon as King Dongchen pushed, Xiyue really stood behind, and shouted sweetly: "Daddy".

Zhen Guohou smiled with relief, and then Xiyue left.

King Dongchen said: "A girl with no conscience. ”

Xiyue is not leaving, but looking for cannons, those assassins don't matter, what matters is the cannons hidden in the shadows, these cannons cannons can't be prevented, the explosion area is large, and they are specially aimed at people's feet, which is very dangerous.

Xiyue covered her breath, this was learned from Shi Mo'er, and people make progress with each other. Xiyue has never done a loss-making business, since she has taught Shi Mo'er to change her body, she naturally has to ask for some benefits from her, such as Shi Mo'er's hiding, which is really flawless, Xiyue's eyes have been red for a long time.

The moment Nozoki entered the jungle, it was as if she had disappeared.

There are no insects and birds in the dense forest, animals can perceive danger more than people, and the most important thing to hunt in autumn is animals, but there is no living creature in this dense forest at this time, which is enough to prove that Xiyue has come to the right place, and the cannon is easy to use but is bulky and difficult to move.

Nozoki's dog nose smelled the smell of gunpowder in the air, and before he could start to follow the smell, the cannon revealed its location by itself. The cannon sounded, Xiyue Phantom Wandered, and in a blink of an eye, he was in front of him, and as soon as he used his hand, the two of them softened in front of the cannon and fainted.

People say that there are only three doors in all directions? Xiyue accurately found the location, cleared the hidden danger, and sent a signal, and the king of Dongchen over there saw that he could really show his skills now.

Xiyue felt that it was wrong, as if she was being led by the nose, and some important information was forgotten by herself.

The cannon fuse in front of her was rekindled, and Xiyue didn't rush to stop it, the cannon exploded by itself, and pieces of iron flew in all directions, and a piece of it grazed her face. The explosion was too loud, and although she dodged the debris, she couldn't avoid the explosion, and the explosion made Xiyue's ears ring.

At this moment, Xiyue remembered what she had missed, Gu Beiyang!

As soon as everyone heard the explosion at the station, anyone who was alive would definitely go to escort them, but after fighting for so long, they didn't see Gu Beiyang. It's not that he wants to protect King Dongchen's car, but he definitely knows that Xiyue will go, as long as Xiyue is there, Gu Beiyang will definitely go, but no, this proves that Gu Beiyang is entangled.

Nozoki patted her head and blew a long whistle, and thunder and lightning soon came.

Xiyue didn't know the exact place of Gu Beiyang, so she ran around and delayed time, so it was better to go back to the station to find the hound, the hounds were specially trained to find people who were accidentally lost in the hunt.

Nozomi found the hound and took out a hairpin from her arms, and the hound sniffed it and ran forward like crazy, and she immediately caught up.

There was a cliff in front of him, and there were broken Ling Yu arrows everywhere, Gu Beiyang was forced to the edge of the cliff with a sword, and he couldn't see any expression from too far away, and Xiao Pepper stood in front with a cold expression.

Xiyue's horse didn't stop, and ran towards Gu Beiyang, Xiao Pepper made a move to stop it, and the hairpin in his hand seemed to be able to cut through the sky, directly piercing Xiao Pepper's arm, and the hairpin trembled in Xiao Pepper's arm.

One move to defeat the enemy, instinctively killed Pepper, but Xiyue didn't.

Ling Yu's arrow was fired again, and Gu Beiyang was forced to retreat a few steps again.

Xiyue dismounted, broke through the encirclement and arrived in front of Gu Beiyang, Gu Beiyang turned sideways, Xiyue's hand just touched Gu Beiyang and noticed that something was wrong, this was not Gu Beiyang, he was a person who was about the same size as Gu Beiyang.

As soon as Xiyue reached the edge of the cliff, the man walked to Xiao Chili, "I was waiting for me here, Princess Linglong is scheming." ”

Xiao Pepper also learned to speak less, and with a wave of his hand, there was another wave of arrow rain, and a green shadow flashed in front of Xiyue, and the arrow rain was blocked.

Gu Beiyang stood in front of Xiyue, Xiyue's heart warmed, this is her Ah Yang, as long as the two of them are together, nothing big is a big deal.

"Fight doesn't wait for me?"

Xiyue didn't know that Gu Beiyang would also speak like this, so she sneered.

The sound of cannons sounded behind Xiao Pepper, and the cannonballs fell one foot away from Gu Beiyang and Xiyue, which seemed to have no effect, but in fact it was all functional. If the shell hits the two people, it is really useless, at this time the place where the two people are is just on the edge of the cliff, there are shells in front, and there is a cliff in the back, and there is no way out after the shells are broken, it is really a line between life and death.

"I now know where the fourth gate is."

The cannonball landed and exploded, and Xiyue pushed Gu Beiyang to stand in front of him, transporting internal force to block the air wave.

And how is manpower against artillery? After a while, Xiyue was thrown off the cliff by the air wave, Gu Beiyang didn't think about it, and then stretched out his hand to grab Xiyue, but the arrow feather came again, Gu Beiyang failed to catch Xiyue's hand, and the two fell off the cliff one after the other.

Little Pepper raised her lips and smiled: "Goodbye, Gu Beiyang, no, my eighteenth imperial brother." ”

No one responded on the cliff, and Pepper's laughter resounded through the cliff, sending chills down the back of the seepage.
