The morning sun is rising, the sky and the earth are bright, and the whole night has completely changed color in a few breaths.

In the open field near the top of the mountain, there is still a strong smell of burnt paste that has not completely dissipated.

In front of them, with their backs to the direction of the rising sun, there were ten horsemen, clad in firm and stubborn clothes, and their eyes were cold, and they were all the most cold-blooded executioners in the Qilian army.

Gu Xuan clenched the long sword in his hand, even if the sun was dazzling, he still tried to open his eyes wide, he was prostrate, his legs were slightly bent, and his upper body leaned forward, like a cheetah ready to attack at any time.

The other party has a horse in his hand, and he doesn't, so if he runs directly, he will definitely not be able to run away, even if he will do any light work, it is useless, the Western Continent has its own rules, in the case of ten thousand laws forbidden, the so-called light power, is just a little jump high, jump farther, it is impossible to do the legendary run against the wind, one thousand miles, so in this case, he must not be able to run the war horse.

Moreover, the opponents were holding large bows of great both, and it could be seen from the posture of their bows and strings that they must be very good at riding and archery.

Gu Xuan didn't say a word of nonsense, he knew that there was no point in delaying time now, people were not fools, and they would never waste a trace of time with him.

The ten horsemen only stopped on the opposite side for a moment, as if they were arranging formations, exchanging tactics, and after a few breaths, they directly grabbed their longbows and began to shoot rapidly in this direction.

They were seriously thinking about whether to rely on the war horse to charge directly, but when they thought of the intelligence, the opponent's martial arts were extremely high, and if it was hand-to-hand combat, maybe he could really break through a way out of desperation.

Prudence is their creed, and it is their criterion to live by attacking the enemy with their own strengths and attacking the enemy's shortcomings, so they choose to be separated from a safe distance, relying on their mobility to be far stronger than the opponent's, and begin to shoot on the fly.

The ten of them did not stand together stupidly, but directly dispersed, formed a big circle, and firmly surrounded Gu Xuan on the cliff, no matter which direction he chose to break through, the other party only needed to ride his horse and retreat, and the others could move as he moved, just like when he was on the border of Haizhou, thousands of fierce guards slaughtered dragons on land, no matter whether you were a dragon in the sea or a tiger on land, you will be worn out of temper.

The ten arrow feathers in front of him, which were obviously nearly twice as thick as ordinary arrows, made a sharp sound of breaking through the air and flew quickly, Gu Xuan could see it clearly, his feet were wrong, and his whole body was like a boneless spirit snake, writhing in the air, and most of these ten feather arrows were directly dodged by him.

Ten arrows, shot from ten different directions, their arm strength is a little different from each other, the time when the arrows arrive is naturally different, but this gap is only in an instant, to make an accurate response and judgment so quickly, ordinary people understand this truth, it is impossible to do, that is, Gu Xuan's five senses are far more acute than ordinary people, so that when there is no room for it, he can find the flaws of the other party itself, and then rely on superb martial arts to escape.

His body stood still instantly, like a straight javelin, Gu Xuan turned the long sword in his hand horizontally, blocking an arrow that shot directly at the door in front of him.

"Bell!"

The sound was as crisp as a bell.

Gu Xuan hurriedly tilted his head back slightly, and only then did he dodge the tip of the sword that bounced back due to the huge force from the outside world.

Just when the opponent is changing arrows, it is time for him to attack!

Gu Xuan was willing to let go of this only opportunity, and hurriedly rushed forward with his long sword.

However, these ten elite cavalrymen were all riding upside down on the horse, seeing Gu Xuan rushing over, gently pinching the horse's belly, the horse who knew the master's mind directly kicked the horse's hooves, and jumped forward like an arrow.

Gu Xuan couldn't help but feel a trace of helplessness in his heart, if the other party was facing him from the beginning, maybe he could break the game because of the other party's series of small mistakes in judgment and decision-making, because it takes time for the horse to turn around after all, and when he sprints with all his strength at close range, the other party will never easily get rid of him, as long as he breaks into the middle of the opponent's team, people from other directions will not dare to use the longbow easily, and then it will naturally be much safer.

After that, relying on their own skills, killing people and robbing horses, maybe they can escape from this mortal killing situation, once they break into the complex dense forest, they dare to chase in again, and they also have the strength to fight.

Thinking of this, with the strength of his feet, Gu Xuan continued to brazenly chase after the two fleeing cavalrymen in front of him.

However, behind him, the other cavalrymen did not need to communicate with each other at all, and directly began to shoot at his back with their bows and arrows.

In the blink of an eye, a full eight feather arrows were fired, and the strong wind was howling, and Gu Xuan didn't need to look back to know what was going on behind him.

Seeing that he might be able to catch up in a few breaths, Gu Xuan still reluctantly gave up this rare opportunity.

In this moment of lightning, he even thought about whether to resist the eight arrows, and then this momentum jumped directly to the horse in front of him, killing the other party in an instant and snatching the horse, and then he could retreat directly back and forth.

But this extremely risky plan was finally abandoned by him, for no other reason, because he was not sure that he would still have the strength to make the following actions after taking these eight arrows, and he didn't know how many ambushes the other party had arranged in other places, he was only one person, and he didn't dare to be easily injured at all.

At the moment, he could only forcibly twist his body, and the whole person slammed into the right, and at the same time dodged the eight powerful feather arrows dangerously, but after all, the speed was still slow for a moment, and the left arm was rubbed out of several bloody wounds by the sharp arrows, although the wounds were not deep, but they were also a few small injuries.

The others were just trying to relieve their companions, and these eight arrows only pursued speed, but they lost some accuracy, and they thought that they could consume a little bit of it.

Hunting is the most taboo, one is careless, the other party seizes the opportunity, the position of the prey and the hunter will be instantly changed, to slowly grind away all the strength of the other party's resistance, one by one to remove all the opponent's defenses, and finally go up to take off the head, is the safest way.

After all, this place is located in the border mountain range, too remote, even if there are those idiots who set fire to the mountain, the border army of the Liang Kingdom will not come over to check the situation so quickly, they still have plenty of time to spend here.

Even the two cavalrymen in front of them who seemed to be fleeing were just deliberately selling flaws, if Gu Xuan really insisted on going up to grab the horse, the other party would instantly speed up and get rid of him, and then he would have suffered eight arrows in vain, but he didn't catch anything.

Gu Xuan bent over, gasping softly, in the flash of light, he had already exchanged hands twice, but the situation did not change in the slightest, and the ten people on the other side still presented a perfect semicircle to trap themselves firmly, and they were already injured.

He felt as if he had fallen into a poor beast in a trap carefully prepared by the hunters, and the more he struggled, the more he was hurt, and a feeling called despair came to him for the first time.

This time, it may really be impossible to escape.

I didn't expect that I was full of ambition, and I had just left the capital, and I was going to die in the mountains on this border so aggrievedly, and it seemed that the ideals that changed the world and the vision for the future could not be realized.

At this moment, he only thought of the gentle and kind mother, I don't know what my mother is doing now, whether she will also think of herself, I don't know how sad she will be after the news of her tragic death is transmitted back, and how will her mother live when she is alone?

Thinking of this, Gu Xuan, who was already desperate, finally lifted his spirits a little, and began to carefully observe the opponent's formation again, in a vain attempt to find a flaw.

And at this moment, his spirit suddenly went into a trance, not the kind of vertigo that was too tired, but a sore pain that paralyzed his nerves.

Oops, I'm still inexperienced and poisoned!

Gu Xuan looked down at the wound on his left arm, and sure enough, black water had already begun to glow, and the next wave of dizziness couldn't stop coming.

Four of the ten horsemen quickly dismounted, drew their short-bladed daggers at their feet, and then rushed towards this direction.

"Ahh

Gu Xuan shook his head fiercely, let out the unwilling roar of the twilight lion before it fell, and then raised his sword to meet it.

These four people have obviously cooperated many times, and the combined attack skills between each other can be called perfect, one person attacks the throat and heart, the two stab at the joints of the meridians of the limbs, and the last person waits for the opportunity to sneak attack, specializing in the next three ways, even if you can't kill you, you will be disgusted, and once the next three roads suffer, people will instantly lose their combat effectiveness, just like a wild dog digging out the anus.

Gu Xuan didn't notice it for a while, he was poisoned, and his reaction suddenly slowed down by half a beat, as soon as he fought, his body was instantly hung with colors, and the arms on both sides were stabbed by the other party, and the blood suddenly shot out, and the toxins coated on the short blade began to pour into his body along the wound, trying to wear away his last strength and will to resist step by step.

"Die!"

Gu Xuan roared violently, and punched the other party in the face with all his strength, and the latter couldn't dodge and flew out directly.

It's just that if this punch had been rested in his heyday, that person would have been shocked to death even if he was wearing a helmet, but now he just shook his head and got up again.

After the punch was thrown, Gu Xuan only felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and he couldn't even lift the hand holding the sword, and he couldn't even feel the pain at the wound, his brain was groggy, and his whole person was shaky.

Fighting with the last bit of strength in his body, the long sword in Gu Xuan's hand was infused with strength, a cold light flashed, and the four elite soldiers of the Qilian Army who had besieged him let out a miserable scream in unison, covered their wounds, and quickly retreated.

After all, it was a sword given by the emperor, and it was extremely sharp, even if it only used a little bit of strength to urge, it still easily cut through the light armor on the four people.

In the rivers and lakes of the south, a hundred birds and a phoenix with a great name seem to be unable to save his life.

Seeing that his companions couldn't take him, and even got injured, the six people who had been waiting on the opposite side finally couldn't help it, and Qi Qi let go of the hand holding the string and shot the arrow in his hand.

Gu Xuan struggled to twist his body as if it had been filled with lead, trying to dodge these swift arrows, but he could only retreat weakly.

On the edge of the cliff, arrows poured into his body with a huge impact, causing him to keep retreating, and finally, Gu Xuan, who finally couldn't help but let out the last scream, covered his left eye, and the whole person fell from the cliff weakly.
