There are a lot of footsteps around, accompanied by the sound of branches and leaves, and the maple forest has been surrounded!

"Protect the Queen!"

Chu Jiu was horrified in his heart, knowing that it was not good, he shouted loudly, pulled out the long sword from his waist, blocked the first arrow feather, and directly penetrated the chest of the thin work, making eight or nine points of strength.

The rain of arrows was eyeless, and a succession of arrows came in a hurry, turning the man who was already powerless to resist into a hedgehog.

Chu Jiu stood in front of Yuehua and weaved the long sword into an impermeable net: "Niangniang, quickly retreat to the house!" ”

The arrow feathers are like locusts, overwhelming, and it can be seen that the other party is overwhelming, and it is difficult to resist for a while.

The guards had already heard Chu Jiu's shout, drew their swords one after another, gathered in front of Chu Jiu, and covered Yuehua and Xiangshen to temporarily avoid in front of the bamboo house.

Following Chu Jiu's command, the opponent's arrows rained down, and then there were torches in the maple forest that lit up one after another, illuminating the surroundings, and the arrows turned into rockets like rain, shooting towards the bamboo house.

The arrow, wrapped in tung oil, landed on top of the bamboo house, and immediately ignited, making a beeping sound and green smoke rising up.

These people are simply blatantly killing people and setting fires, without any fear, and directly cut off the way of life for several people, which shows that they did not intend to let them survive in the first place, and they are bound to kill people and kill people.

This place is not suitable for a long time, Yuehua pulled off the clothesline in the courtyard, and rolled out the crossbow left by Ling Xi on the table from the window, using it as self-defense, trying to keep herself calm.

"There are too many of them, we are not opponents at all, find a way to break through, right? We're going to die here. ”

Yuehua said in a deep voice.

Behind him, some parts of the bamboo house have begun to collapse, and seeing that this barrier is about to disappear, a group of people can only be slaughtered by others. If you want to survive, you can only find a way to break through. This is not too far from the city gate, and the city gate should not be closed at this time, if you are lucky, you can enter the city and be protected by the city defenders, so the other party will not dare to be so arrogant.

Chu Jiu nodded, and instructed the guards around him: "Raise soldiers for a thousand days and use soldiers for a while, everyone remembers the emperor's entrustment to us, find a way to break through into the city, and swear to protect the safety of the mother." ”

Everyone responded sonorously, and Chu Jiu turned around, took the lead, and broke through in the direction of the city gate.

The fire burned fiercely, and the maple forest was as bright as day, and the other party quickly sensed their intentions and quickly narrowed the encirclement.

Black scarves and masks, armor and steel knives, all of them are a group of dead soldiers in black.

Yuehua pulled the trigger in his hand, and the bow and crossbow were wrapped in the fierce wind, tearing a bloody hole in the opponent's overwhelming offensive.

The first sword of the first day slashed down a row of bamboo hedges, and then swept with its toes, and the bamboo with sharp pointed tips carried the sound of the wind, and roared towards the group of black-clothed masked people who flew over to the side.

Screaming.

The bow and crossbow were fired several times in a row, and the opponent suffered a loss, full of horror, and the attack was obviously sluggish.

"Let's go!"

The arrow box is already empty, and the opportunity cannot be lost, Yuehua commanded in a deep voice.

Chu Jiu said hello, and everyone protected her and Xiangshen, like a tiger in the mountains, rushing towards the opening at the fastest speed.

The bloody rain and bloody wind swept up in the maple forest in an instant, and the sound of the fire hunting and burning, destroying all things, the sonorous sound of weapons, the screams, and the shouts, gathered together to form a tragic and tragic picture.

The martial arts of these black-clothed dead soldiers are not very strong, but there are many people, and they are not afraid of death, and the black pressure is densely packed throughout the maple forest, one after another, and there are countless of them.

Chu Jiu protected them and fought and retreated, and in the dark night, the smell of blood was everywhere, and he didn't know how many people he had killed, and he didn't know when his brother had fallen silently beside him.

Fortunately, Yuehua's hard work has made her body recover as before, she is much lighter and more agile, and she can barely protect herself in the face of the other party's attack. But Xiang Shen was a little embarrassed, dodging left and right, screaming again and again. The two of them are surrounded by dangers, and they lose one and the other.

When several people rushed out of the maple forest covered in blood, they were surrounded by each other again, and at this time, only Chu Jiu, Yuehua, and Xiangshen were left, and the other brothers all died heroically.

Yuehua picked up the bow and crossbow and bluffed at the black-clothed masked man who was getting closer and closer to him, and the other party was afraid and didn't dare to approach recklessly.

"Who are you? Why exterminate? ”

Chu Jiu's eyes were cracked, his back was also injured, and when he was protecting Yuehua, he was attacked by the other party, and he was drenched in blood, and it was difficult to even lift it.

He felt scared, worried that he would not be able to protect Yuehua and complete the task given to him by Mo Guhan.

The other party didn't speak, but slowly approached them, the steel knife in his hand flashing with an eerie cold light.

Xiangshen was also afraid, her body trembled, and her teeth trembled: "Chu Jiu, as long as you have a chance, take your mother and run away quickly, don't care about me." ”

"Nonsense!" Yuehua scolded her: "Your life is also mine, I will never allow you to have an accident." ”

"Incense is useless, it can't protect the mother, the only thing you can do is to never become a burden to the mother."

Xiang Shen trembled with fear, but still said categorically: "If Niang Niang insists on taking Xiang Shen away, Xiang Shen will die here first." ”

"Xiangshen!" Yuehua had been holding back tears for a long time, and at this time she couldn't help but burst out of her eyes: "It's already me who has burdened you, how can I be embarrassed if you talk like this again?" ”

She had already made up her mind, and whispered to Chu Jiu: "Chu Jiu, your skills are good, if you have the opportunity for a while, you can escape by yourself, find a way to see the emperor, and tell him that Chang Zhiyi has committed treason." ”

"What?" Chu Jiu was startled, and when he turned his head, the other party couldn't allow them to breathe, and he had already pounced fiercely, with swords and swords, impenetrable.

Yuehua threw away the bow and crossbow in his hand, picked up the long sword on the ground, and protected the incense Shen in the middle with Chu Jiu, there were countless people in black, surrounding the three of them, where is there a way to escape?

The dense steel knives of the black-clothed dead man were all shrouded towards Yuehua's head, and it was obvious that their target was Yuehua, and the move was ruthless, and the knife was deadly.

Chu Jiu blocked Yuehua behind him, even if he gritted his teeth and fought for his life, he had no choice but to beat his two fists with four hands, where could he be the opponent of the man in black?

Several people were covered in blood, and they were already embarrassed, and Chu Jiu was stabbed in the arm again, bleeding like an infusion, and his body staggered.

Seeing that victory was in sight, the other party became more and more ruthless, and all the tricks were launched.

A majestic black-clothed man wearing a cloak walked slowly out of the maple forest, watching all this with cold eyes, and his eyes exposed outside the scarf were more cold and vicious than the long sword in his hand.

He narrowed his eyes, slowly raised the long sword in his hand, and with a little foot, the whole person rose from the ground, the cloak on his body swelled with a fierce murderous aura, and the long sword pushed away Chu Jiu's struggle to resist, and then pierced into Yuehua's empty left rib with lightning speed.

The blood splashed, and the first nine incense was cracked.

"!"

More steel knives slashed his head and covered his face, and Xiang Shen jumped forward, protecting Yuehua tightly under him.

Chu Jiu was like crazy, let out a long roar, jumped up desperately, the long sword in his hand blocked the man's attack, and his body was also cut by the blade of the opponent's dead soldier.

Seeing that life and death were at stake, at the last moment, a more fierce sword wind surged, forcing back the murderous aura in front of him.

The sound of horses' hooves was fast, and two horses galloped in the distance, and one person on horseback swept up like a shock, and two rose and fell, and then fell into the encirclement, and the cold light in his hand flickered, and he picked several lives of the other party.

Xiang Shen hugged Yuehua, who was seriously injured and almost unconscious, in his arms, raised a little face full of tears, and was surprised and delighted: "Young Master Mubai! ”

The person who came was Chu Mubai, whose complexion had changed greatly.

He and Zijin were driven out of the palace by Chang Lingyan, and returned to the maple forest in desperation.

He forced back the enemy's continuous attack, and while turning his head, he roared hoarsely: "What's wrong with Yuehua? ”

Xiangshen had already cried: "Niangniang, she was hit by a sword and shed a lot of blood!" I'm afraid, I'm afraid it's going to be gone! ”

Chu Mubai was furious, and the long sword in his hand almost destroyed the world.

The sword-wielding man in black quietly retreated into the maple forest.

Two fast horses galloped in, and one horse sat on Qiu Zijin, and the purple gold knife in his hand flew up and down, killing a bloody path and breaking into the encirclement.

At this time, Chu Mubai was shocked: "Zijin, take Yuehua and go straight into the city!" Seek the defenders of the city to respond. ”

Qiu Zijin shook his head categorically: "I'm not familiar with the city defenders, so you should go!" I'll cover! ”

Chu Jiu was already exhausted, and because of excessive blood loss, he was almost unsteady on his feet, holding his sword on the ground and gasping for breath: "General Chu, the other party is too powerful, even if the Zijin girl and her mother escape, they can't escape their black hands." You go quickly, take the mother straight into the palace, after the ninth break, otherwise everyone will die. ”

Chu Mubai only groaned slightly, and he had already analyzed the pros and cons. There are many people on the other side, and I am afraid that there are hundreds of people, even if Zijin escapes, and the other party chases after her, she will indeed be unable to escape the opponent. Everyone stays here, and in the end there is only one result.

What's more, only if he can bring Yuehua into the palace, the other party can stop.

Yuehua's injury cannot be delayed, and she must hurry into the palace to find the imperial doctor for treatment, otherwise, it will be unimaginable.

But after thinking about it for a while, Chu Mubai made a ruthless decision, looked at Chu Jiu, and nodded firmly: "Brother, good!" Take care of yourself! Be sure to live! ”

The two horses had broken through the encirclement and galloped to the ground, Chu Mubai did not hesitate, bent down to pick up Yuehua, opened the world with a majestic move, and then under the cover of Zijin, he flew up and landed on the back of the galloping horse.

The killing power of the man in black immediately followed like a maggot on the tarsal bones.

With the light of the sword and the shadow of the sword, Chu Mubai tightly stopped the unconscious Yuehua with one arm, and fought bravely to kill the enemy with a sword.

Someone commanded in a deep voice: "Release the arrows!" They must not be allowed to escape! ”

The black-clothed people on the periphery immediately set up bows and shot arrows, and for a while, the arrows were full of feathers, like locusts covering the sky, wrapped in strong winds, as fast as meteors.

Chu Mubai only cared about resisting the fierce attack of the man in black on Yuehua, how could he take care of his back?

Zijin covered Chu Mubai and Yuehua on the one hand, and then stretched out his hand towards Xiangshen.

Chu Jiuyi pushed Xiangshen: "Hurry up and go with Miss Zijin!" ”

Xiang Shen held a long sword in his hand to defend himself, and a sword slapped on Chu Mubai's horse stock, and the horse was in pain, raising his hooves and leaving the dust.

"Xiangshen!"

Chu Mubai looked back in shock, and saw that Xiang Shen's petite body was already full of arrow feathers, and she still kept waving the long sword in her hand, struggling to resist the arrows that shot at the back of his heart.

Gradually, her hand could no longer hold the heavy long sword, and the sword slipped down, falling to the ground with a "choking" sound. Her arms were still raised like that, waving from side to side, as if waving goodbye to him.

Although it was a dark night, Chu Mubai felt that he could still see the red blood gushing out from Xiangshen's body. Under the firelight, she turned her head and smiled at him with difficulty, her red lips twitching, as if she was shouting "Young Master Mubai".

The man fell down softly.

Her persistent waving hand has always been fixed in Chu Mubai's eyes.

Chu Jiu was crazy, rushed over, used his last strength, and used the long sword in his hand to split a bloody path for Zijin.

"Let's go!"

Zijin held back the tears in his eyes, shook the reins of the horse, and the horse neighed, chasing Chu Mubai's figure.
