The name of the pavilion is "Basho Pavilion" because there is a plantain tree in front of the pavilion that is not very luxuriant and vigorous. Although the name is simple, if you taste it carefully, it also has some unconventional charm.

People immediately fell in love with this unpretentious place.

After playing for a while, Li Yuhan, who had been running crazy for a long time, said excitedly: "I heard the sound of water, it should be at the foot of the mountain." I'm going to draw water! ”

Li Chengyu hurriedly collected almost all the water bladders, threw them to his younger brother, and said, "It's rare that you are so diligent, it is better to fill all the water bladders together!" ”

Li Yuhan looked at the one, two, three, four, and five water bladders in his arms, stuck out his tongue, and went down the mountain with a smoke.

Duanmu Lingfeng looked at Fang Miao's envious eyes as she chased Li Yuhan, and knew that she was also like going to play, but the girl's family was not good to say directly, so he leaned over to Miaoci's side and said, "I just pulled the reins, my palms were sweaty, I want to wash it, do you want to go with me?" ”

Miao Cut's eyes were like two ripe black grapes, black and shiny, reflecting the light, she nodded, took Duanmu's hand, and ran down the mountain.

Ji Ying watched the three of them disappear into the depths of the woods, and took a deep breath again—it was the smell of freedom, the smell of happiness.

Li Chengyu saw from a distance that the trees planted about 100 paces away seemed to have brightly colored flowers, but they were far away and couldn't see what kind of flowers they were. Li Chengyu was curious and planned to go over to see what was going on.

But as he jumped off the wooden railing, his movements stiffened for a moment. He glanced at the dead branch he had stepped on, and saw that the broken branch was fresh, and he could conclude that it was caused by the blade.

Cold sweat immediately oozed from his forehead, and he hurried to look at the foot of the mountain, but unfortunately he couldn't see anyone's shadow.

Li Chengyu remained silent, slowly withdrew his feet, and then returned to the pavilion and stepped in front of Ji Ying in two steps.

Ji Ying didn't understand why the eldest brother, who was excited like a child just now, looked so serious and nervous now.

Li Chengyu took Ji Ying's hand and whispered, "There is someone behind me." We're afraid we're in an ambush. ”

Ji Ying was startled and wanted to see the situation behind Li Chengyu, but was held down by Li Chengyu with his eyes. Ji Ying's back was cold, and she asked, "Then what should we do now?" Second brother, will they be in danger? ”

"I'm afraid these people are coming at you, otherwise they should have done it just now. You listen to me, don't be afraid, we can drag on for a moment. Go lead the horse! ”

Ji Ying suddenly felt a crispy sensation rising from her back, and this feeling was transmitted all the way to the top of her head, squeezing her scalp tightly. In the assassinations and battles he encountered before, Jiang Yichen was around him, but now that Jiang Yichen was not around, Ji Ying felt like she had been thrown into the boundless sea, and all she saw was suffocation and despair.

They hadn't taken two steps before they heard the sound of soldiers at the foot of the mountain—Li Yuhan and the others had already handed over their soldiers—they couldn't drag it on!

In an instant, more than a dozen masked people sprang out of the bushes, and they didn't speak, they went directly to Ji Ying to slash and kill, with undying persistence in their eyes.

Li Chengyu held Ji Ying in his left hand, and fought with the killer with a sword in his right hand, and fought and retreated.

Ji Ying, under the wing of Lee Seung-woo, quickly retreated to the horse, but just as she was about to get on the horse, the horse was killed by a killer and fell to the ground with a bang.

More than a dozen killers have completely surrounded the two brothers and sisters.

Li Chengyu's right wrist was already shaking from the shock, and sweat soaked the clothes on his back, but his left hand was still tightly holding Ji Ying.

Ji Ying couldn't guess the identity of the other party, so she deliberately delayed time, poked her head out from behind Li Chengyu, and asked loudly: "Guys, I'm going down so far, I don't know where I offended you, please explain!" ”

No one answered.

Ji Ying asked again: "I don't know who your leader is." It's death below, and I want to die to understand! ”

The killers didn't answer, and a man came out of the bushes. The man was dressed in a black hooded cape, and the hat covered his face, so that he could not see his face clearly.

The killers made way for the man in black.

"Ji Ying, don't come to harm?" The man in black said mockingly.

Ji Ying and Li Chengyu glanced at each other and asked the man in black: "Your Excellency is ......?"

The man in black lifted the hat on his head, raised his head, and looked at Ji Ying playfully and cruelly.

This kind of look, Ji Ying has only seen on one person's face, that is Zhou Yan, the former king of Chu who escaped in chaos after being placed under house arrest, the Zhou Yan who was narrowly defeated by Ji Ying and regarded human life as a mustard!

Today's Zhou Yan is much thinner than Ji Ying's impression, but the evil spirit revealed from the inside out is not something that time can be consumed.

Ji Ying felt that her head had swelled.

Zhou Yan looked at Ji Ying carefully and said, "My subordinates told me yesterday that the young talent Ji Ying who is the best in the world may be a woman. I didn't believe it at first, how could I lose at the hands of a woman? Looking at the appearance of Lord Ji now, it turns out that this is indeed the case. Imagine, adult, if tomorrow, the people of this Great Zhou Dynasty know about the adult's crime of bullying the king, and know that the new emperor has always intended to cover up, and it is even possible that the new emperor has some great thoughts about the adult, you say, what will happen? ”

Zhou Yan looked up to the sky and laughed, laughing so hard that Ji Ying broke out in a cold sweat. Ji Ying stabilized her mind and said, "I'm afraid Your Excellency has recognized the wrong person, right?" I'm just a common man passing through here, not an 'adult'. ”

"I know you won't admit it easily. It doesn't matter, wait until I invite your 'lady' over and ask, and everything will fall into place. ”

Ji Ying knows that Miao Cut will always stand by her side, but she must not let Miao Cut suffer unjustified disasters. Since the matter has come to this point, there is no need for her to hide it, so as not to bring more harm to her relatives and friends, she stepped forward and took two steps forward and said: "Since Your Excellency's goal is me, you don't have to embarrass others, what do you want, just say it." ”

Zhou Yan smiled with his hand: "Lord Ji is really a smart person who knows current affairs. But I don't want your head now, wouldn't it be better if I could use this to make Zhou Yu unhappy? ”

Li Chengyu stood in front of Ji Ying again and whispered to Ji Ying: "Don't be arrested, I will definitely escort you away!" ”

"Big Brother ......"

"Even if it's not for yourself, you have to think about your majesty!" Li Chengyu urged.

Li Chengyu will desperately protect Ji Ying's safety, which Ji Ying is convinced of, but, not to mention whether Li Chengyu can block these killers and let her escape successfully, even if it is really done, the secret has been exposed, and Zhou Yan's existence is the biggest threat to Zhou Yu. There is an ending on the left and right, so why bother to steal peace?

Ji Ying said: "Brother, it's the same whether I go or not." There's no need to resist. ”

Lee Seung-woo thought to himself, how could it be the same? At least you're still alive. But before he could speak, Zhou Yan said: "It seems that Master Ji has figured it out, so come with me." ”

Two men in black walked up. Ji Ying thought, I don't know if their knives are sharp enough, I hope I can catch up with them.

Ji Ying has already seen the blade.
