Volume 1 A Dream in the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 23 Escape from Adversity
How could those officers and soldiers have ever seen such a miserable situation?
As soon as those officers and soldiers touched the black mist emitted by Zhao Yu, they screamed to death, and the skin on their bodies became charred, like a dry corpse with pitch black.
So they were all afraid to step forward, and some even retreated.
"Whoever dares to retreat will be killed." A loud shout rang out, accompanied by the sound of horses' hooves.
An eight-foot-tall middle-aged man in military uniform rode a red horse with a longbow in his hand, and quickly rushed over with a team of officers and soldiers.
With his shouts, those officers and soldiers quickly surrounded Zhao Yu.
"Don't let that kid run away." As soon as the middle-aged man waved his hand, a group of officers and soldiers behind him chased after Zhuo Xueqi.
"Don't think about it." Zhao Yu said, and the black mist spewed out with silver needles, attacking the officers and soldiers who surrounded her. took advantage of the gap to fly and intercept the team of officers and soldiers, the black mist was shrouded and murderous.
"Poison Rakshasa, aren't you going to be caught?" The middle-aged man shouted.
Zhao Yu's body was like a ghost, and he solved a few more people, raising his eyebrows and sneering: "Dreaming." โ
The middle-aged man was furious and said, "Kill her." โ
The officers and soldiers surrounded her in an instant, and the spears in their hands pierced straight into all parts of her body.
Although Zhao Yu's martial arts skills are low, his light skills are good, and he is not afraid of the scene in front of him at all, his body is like a light butterfly, staggering and shuttling between them, and the screams are continuous.
But after a long time, when her internal strength was not sustained, there were flaws in her body style, which also caused her to be injured under the siege of so many people.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man's eyes flashed coldly, and he pulled his bow and arrow, and shot at the back of Zhao Yu's head.
The sound of breaking the sky behind his ears was like a thunderbolt, Zhao Yu wanted to avoid being forced to avoid it, and he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and sighed secretly: "Is it that I am going to die here today?" โ
At this moment, an arrow shot out diagonally from the side, just in time to shoot down the middle-aged man's fierce arrow.
The middle-aged man changed color and shouted angrily: "What person? โ
However, as soon as he finished speaking, an arrow shot straight at his mount. He was shocked and wanted to avoid it, but it was too late. The arrow hit the horse's belly, and the horse neighed and fell to the ground.
Before his mother completely collapsed, the middle-aged man shouted, slapped the saddle, rose into the air, pulled his bow and shot an arrow into the open space on the right, standing in the wind, a masked man in a moon-white brocade robe.
However, his arrow was a step slower, and the masked man's arrow had already hit him in the arm.
He snorted, barely holding the longbow.
"Protect the general." I don't know who shouted, and some officers and soldiers turned to protect the middle-aged man and attacked the masked man.
The middle-aged man shouted, "Don't let go of the poisonous rakshasa." Then he shouted at the masked man and asked, "Who is your Excellency?" โ
The officers and soldiers retreated and stood by the middle-aged man's side.
The masked man did not reply, but fired three arrows at his face, chest, and abdomen, and at the same time he flew towards him.
The middle-aged man was shocked, and hurriedly took a diagonal step, hugging Yuan Shouyi, and the internal force flowed out, thinking that he could dissolve the momentum of the arrow, but unexpectedly, the three arrows pierced through the gangqi, an arrow hit his shoulder, an arrow hit his armpit, and an arrow hit his thigh.
Although he avoided the vital point, the pain hit, Rao was as hard as him, and he couldn't help screaming in pain and knelt on one knee.
And the masked man solved the officers and soldiers who pounced on him, and he was in front of him, a long sword resting on his neck, and his voice was cold: "Tell your people to withdraw." โ
The middle-aged man glared at him angrily, eager to crush him to ashes. But considering the situation in front of him, he gritted his teeth and ordered: "Withdraw." โ
With his order, the officers and soldiers quickly retreated.
"Miss Zhao, you go quickly." Masked humanity.
Zhao Yu covered the wound on his arm, looked at the white-clothed masked man, and thought that he had been feeling that someone was following him for the past few days, probably this person.
So, she took a deep look at him and said, "Thank you for your help." After saying that, he flew away.
Zhao Yu was concerned about Zhuo Xueqian and quickly chased towards the woods.
"Xueqi, where are you?" Zhao Yu shouted.
"Sister, I'm here." Zhuo Xueqian ran out of a bush and ran towards Zhao Yu, "Sister, you are injured. โ
Seeing the multiple wounds and blood on Zhao Yu's body, Zhuo Xue's eyes turned red and said in a trembling voice.
Zhao Yu saw that his eyes were red, and he hurriedly said, "Sister is fine, it will be fine in a while." โ
Zhuo Xue held back her tears and said, "Sister, I'll help you deal with your wounds." โ
"The wound is not in a hurry, let's get out of here first." Zhao Yu was afraid that the officers and soldiers were catching up, so he couldn't help but say that he took Zhuo Xueqian and fled deeper into the woods.
It wasn't until they were sure that the officers and soldiers would never chase after them again that the two stopped out of breath.
"Snow ยทยทยทยทยทยท" She suddenly stopped, and her face turned pale. The pain in her abdomen hit again, and her throat itched, and she covered her mouth and coughed, and she coughed up black blood.
I didn't expect that the continuous use of the "Yin and Yin Poison Gong" during this period of time would cause such damage to the body, could it not be used again in the future?
Thinking of this, Zhao Yu panicked in his heart. In the future, she will have to rely on the Yin and Yin Poison Skills to save her life and take revenge, if the Yin and Yin Poison Skills can't be used, then her life and death will only be between the lines.
So she would never allow such a thing to happen, and it seemed that she was going to find a way to solve it.
"Sister, I'll treat your wounds." Zhuo Xueqian had been adjusting her breath at the beginning, and she didn't notice anything unusual about Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu came back to his senses, tried his best to hide his discomfort, and tilted his head slightly and said, "No need, these little injuries can be dealt with by myself." โ
"But sister, the wound on your back ยทยทยทยทยทยท"
"I said I could." Zhao Yu's tone suddenly became sharp, and her sword-like gaze looked at him coldly, because of the pain, her forehead was already covered with dense beads of sweat.
Zhuo Xueqian was suppressed by her fierce momentum, and didn't know how to react for a while, just looked at her blankly.
"You rest here, I'll take care of the wounds." Zhao Yu knew that her tone just now was a little bad, and because of the pain, she really didn't have the patience to entangle this issue with him.
Zhuo Xueqian may have realized that she had annoyed her, so she couldn't help lowering her head, her expression was dark and uncertain, and she said in a low voice: "Okay." โ
Zhao Yu then walked in the direction of the sound of water, passed through a forest, and finally saw a stream. She took a pill first, ready to suppress the poison in her body first.
But she couldn't succeed in meditating for a long time, and the pain in her abdomen became more intense, and she wanted to give up.
At this time, several internal forces slowly entered her body from the acupuncture points on her back, wandered through the seven meridians and eight veins, and then headed towards the dantian.
Her heart sank, and she hurriedly concentrated on helping her internal force to help her heal.
After the time of a stick of incense, the pain disappeared, and Zhao Yu slowly opened his eyes.
"Miss Zhao, are you still unwell?" A clear male voice sounded from behind, and the voice was very respectful.
Zhao Yu got up and turned his head. I saw a young man in moon-white brocade, with clear eyebrows and handsome eyes, standing quietly.
"Bai Lang?" Zhao Yu asked with some uncertainty.
There are six halls in the Jingjie Palace, and Zhao Yu, the core character in these six halls, has seen them, but he can't remember them clearly. Moreover, the people of the six halls are distinguished by the color of their clothes, including black, white, red, yellow, blue, and purple.
Since he was dressed in white, he was naturally the one who was stationed under the White Smoke Hall in Xianzhou. The hall master of Baiyan Hall is a woman, and this person's martial arts are not weak, so if he has a good bow and arrow, he is naturally the deputy hall master Bai Lang.
"My subordinates have seen Miss Zhao." Bai Lang saluted respectfully.
For his respect, Zhao Yu couldn't help frowning, and said lightly: "Bai Lang, you don't need to be so respectful, just call me Zhao Yu." โ
"Subordinates don't dare to exceed the rules."
Zhao Yu couldn't help sighing: "That's it, I'm fine, you can go." She hasn't forgotten the one-month free body that Baili peerless promised her, and with such a person by her side, how can she do things?
"The subordinates came to protect Miss Zhao on the orders of the Hou Ye, and the subordinates did not dare to leave without the orders of the Hou Ye." He said respectfully, his voice full of firmness, "What's more, Miss Zhao's injuries are not healed yet, and her subordinates dare not leave." โ
Zhao Yu saw that he was right-headed, sonorous and powerful, knowing that persuasion was useless, and said angrily at the moment: "You are really the same as Qiu, it seems that your Hou Ye's methods of training people are really clever." โ
Bai Lang stood silently, silent.
"In that case, you can help me with the medicine." Zhao Yu simply threw the medicine bottle to him.
"Subordinates obey." Bai Lang took the medicine bottle and walked over to carefully clean her wounds.
"Miss Zhao, do you know the origin of that child?" Bai Lang asked suddenly.
Zhao Yu's heart froze, and he said indifferently: "I don't know." She also wanted to find out where he came from.
"He is the son of the prefect of Xianzhou."
"Oh, that's where he came from, what's so special?" Zhao Yu asked puzzled.
"Because the prefect of Xianzhou offended King Rong, those who assassinated were most likely people from the Blameless Palace, not to mention the people from the official mansion, Miss Zhao and this child walked together, and they would be killed."
Zhao Yu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood: "It turns out that it can alarm the officers and soldiers, but it is because of King Rong." โ
"Miss Zhao, for your safety, this child can't stay around." Bai Lang finished taking medicine for Zhao Yu and bowed down to persuade.
Zhao Yu was silent. She promised the old man to take care of this young man, if she didn't care about him at this moment, wouldn't she have broken her original promise? It is not her work to be faithful without words.
"I'm in charge of his business."
"If Miss Zhao can't bear to do it, her subordinates can solve it on her behalf."
"You dare." Zhao Yu suddenly said sharply, staring at him with sharp eyes, his voice was as cold as snow, "Bai Lang, don't touch that child, otherwise you will bear the consequences." โ
Bai Lang saw her resoluteness, sighed in his heart, and only lowered his eyes after a while and said, "My subordinates obey orders." โ
Zhao Yu nodded with satisfaction and said, "If something happens, I have my own way to explain it to Master Hou, and Master Hou won't blame you." โ
"My subordinates understand."
"Sister, are you alright?" Xu couldn't wait, Zhuo Xueqian came closer and called.
"Alright." Zhao Yu responded to him loudly, and said to Bai Lang in a low voice, "Bai Lang, you go first." โ
"The subordinates retired."
As soon as he left, Zhao Yu tidied up his clothes and walked over quickly. Luckily, she was dressed in black, so she didn't make the blood on her body look terrible.
As soon as the anxious young man saw her, he hurriedly rushed over and hugged her, and said aggrievedly: "I thought my sister didn't want Xueqi." โ
Zhao Yu was stunned, remembering what he had just said to Bai Lang, he felt guilty in his heart, stroked his hair, and said softly: "Why doesn't my sister want you, you see, isn't my sister here?" โ
Zhuo Xueqian let go of her at this time, but she was still a little angry: "My sister was so fierce just now, and she left alone, of course I will be worried." When I'm worried, I like to think more, sister, can you not do this next time. โ
Zhao Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard his words, and said helplessly: "You kid knows that you want to think about things at such a young age, what if you get older." โ
"I'm going to think about it more." Zhuo Xue said angrily.
"Okay, just think about it." Zhao Yu was afraid that the more he teased him, the more he would be fried, so he simply followed him.
Zhuo Xueqian's face really improved a lot, but when she saw the wound on Zhao Yu's body, she couldn't help but change her face again, her eyes were red, her face was full of shame, and she said, "My sister was injured for me, I'm really useless, I'm so sad." Tears were about to fall as he spoke.
Zhao Yu was startled, thinking that he would not cry again.
Sure enough, the golden beans in his eyes fluttered and fell.
Zhao Yu sighed helplessly, and hurriedly diverted his attention: "Xue Yan, I heard that the sunset on Cangwu Mountain is very beautiful, let's go quickly, otherwise we will miss it." โ
"But it's only noon." Zhuo Xueqian was successfully diverted.
"Oh, we still have to rush over, maybe the time is just right." Zhao Yu walked in front and urged.
"Oh, okay." Zhuo Xueqian wiped some tears and hurriedly followed.
finally flickered over, and Zhao Yu's heart was relieved. At the same time, I can't help but feel who he has with his crying temperament.
