Chapter 106
"Alas, I lost again!" Yan Yunxi waved her horsewhip angrily, she was only a little later than Ye Li to the foot of the mountain, she had never lost before, but she had lost twice in a row when she met Ye Li, and she had not beaten him in archery and horseback riding.
"Your Highness is already very powerful." A trace of amazement flashed in Ye Lixing's eyes, he knew his level very well, if it came to riding and archery, there were very few men who could beat him, not to mention that in his opinion, although Yan Yunxi was a princess, she was actually just a little girl.
Yan Yunxi just wanted to say something, but his brows furrowed, and at the same time, Ye Li's expression was solemn, and he held the saber at his waist.
Out of nowhere, dozens of black shadows appeared and were speeding towards them, these black-clothed men were masked, surrounded from a distance, copied from the three breads, as long as there was no one on the side of the mountain. Ye Li pulled out his sword and waited for him, "Your Highness, I'm afraid they're coming for us, you can hide behind me later." "Even though they were on horseback, they would run into the men in black no matter which direction they ran.
Yan Yunxi didn't speak, but pulled out a soft sword from her waist, as a prince, it is not that she has not encountered assassination, but she doesn't know who wants to kill herself this time?
The man in black soon arrived in front of him, and without saying much, he drew his sword and killed.
Ye Li's sword danced vigorously, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw Yan Yunxi's soft sword like a dragon swimming out of the water, forcing the man in black not to dare to approach.
Ye Li breathed a sigh of relief, there were many people in black, there were about thirty people, and there were only two of them, he thought that he would definitely not be able to fight, but he could support it for a while, if King Yu found that something was wrong, he would send someone to rescue, but he was worried that he would not be able to take care of Yan Yunxi in the melee, at this time, seeing that she was very skilled, she didn't need to protect herself at all, and suddenly her spirit was lifted, and the sword in her hand became even more powerful.
The black-clothed man at the head made a gesture, and countless sword lights slashed towards the two horses, both of whom were using swords, which were not as long as they were
Guns can't protect the horses at all, and if the horses fall, it will be bad if the two of them suddenly fall. Ye Li shouted, "Abandon the horse!" Jumped up from the horse, swung a few swords in the air, and landed towards the few people, but saw the red clothes staggering, Yan Yunxi fell behind him, and the two were back to back.
Ye Li said in a low voice: "Go up the mountain!" "He saw clearly just now, the road up the mountain is very narrow, not conducive to the enemy siege, although I don't know what the situation is at the top of the mountain, but it's better than staying here, these people are not weak, at first glance they are well-trained killers, surrounded by these people, there are many bad luck.
The two of them were back to back, and while fighting with the man in black, they moved towards the mountain, but fortunately, the mountain road was narrow, although there were many people in black, they couldn't show it, and the two of them had no danger all the way. But it was impossible for them to stay on the mountain road without moving, the man in black pressed forward step by step, and the two fought all the way back and slowly reached the top of the mountain.
"Oops!" Ye Li sighed secretly, there was no way down the mountain on the other side of the mountain, but a cliff.
Without the restrictions of the narrow mountain road, twenty or thirty black-clothed people gathered over, and Ye Li and Yan Yunxi were forced closer and closer to the cliff.
Ye Li forced back a few people in black who were approaching, and just as he wanted to tell Yan Yunxi to be careful about her feet, out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of her embarrassingly avoiding a sword, but her feet slipped and her body tilted towards the cliff. The man in black beside her seized the opportunity, and several cold lights stabbed at her at the same time, and the soft sword in her hand was also knocked away.
"Your Highness!" Ye Li shouted, didn't care about herself, and rushed over to help her block, but Yan Yunxi had already fallen off the cliff, her hand grabbed the stone on the edge of the cliff, but the stone was loose, and the stone slipped and her whole person fell.
"No!" Ye Li's eyes were about to split, his body jumped, and he grabbed her hand.
The two fell off the cliff together.
There was the sound of the wind in their ears, and between the electric light and flint, Ye Li and Yan Yunxi glanced at each other, their eyes were intertwined, obviously it was just an instant, but the two of them felt that it was as long as the vicissitudes of life.
"You fool." Yan Yunxi muttered.
The wind was too loud, Ye Li didn't hear what she was talking about, and looked at her lips as if she was scolding herself for being a fool. He didn't know what was wrong with him, and when he saw her fall, he only felt that his heart was broken, and he jumped off without thinking about it.
Ye Li held Yan Yunxi's wrist with his left hand, and the sword in his right hand stabbed towards the mountain wall, the sword slashed across the mountain wall, and the speed of the two of them slowed down.
Ye Li looked at a gap in the mountain wall, stabbed his sword into it, and the two finally stopped.
Yan Yunxi looked at the bottomless abyss under her feet, she smiled bitterly, "Ye Li, let it go, that sword can't hold the two of us." She didn't want to die here, but as long as he let go of himself, he might be able to hold on a little longer, maybe until someone came to her rescue.
"Shut up!" Ye Li glared at her, and his left hand gripped her wrist tighter, "My bootsβ"
Before he finished speaking, the sword broke with a "click", and the two fell down rapidly.
Yan Yunxi glanced at him apologetically, no matter who those black-clothed people were aiming for, at least now he was dragging him down.
Ye Li was not in a hurry, his left hand held her wrist and did not let go, his right leg curled up, his right hand took out a dagger from his boots, he didn't look at it, he waved his hand and stabbed at the mountain wall, the dagger was like cutting tofu, it easily pierced into the mountain wall, and the falling figures of the two stopped again.
"Broken gut!" Yan Yunxi shouted in surprise, this is the gut-breaking sword she gave him, it is a national treasure of Daluo, sharpening iron like clay, and cutting into stone is even more effortless.
Ye Li looked at his feet, he could vaguely see the bottom of the valley, he pulled out a short dagger, the two of them fell for a while, and inserted the broken intestine into the mountain wall to stabilize the figure of the rapid fall. So repeatedly, it is slowly approaching the bottom.
Ye Li took a closer look, this valley is an isolated uninhabited valley, and there is a thick layer of leaves piled up at the bottom of the valley, it should not hurt if it falls at this speed, he carefully pulled out the Broken Intestine Sword, and quickly inserted it back, this time the two of them fell for a while, and they were only one person high from the ground. This distance was no longer enough for him to insert the gut-breaking sword again, Ye Li admonished: "Be careful, we are going to land." β
This time he pulled out his dagger and did not insert it back into the mountain wall, and the two of them landed on the thick, soft leaves.
When their feet stepped on the ground, their legs weakened and they both sat on the ground. This way was chased up the mountain by the man in black, and fell from the cliff, which can be described as thrilling and dangerous, and it is only now that it is temporarily safe, this cliff is so high, the man in black must not come down directly from here.
After resting for a moment, Ye Li stood up, "Let's go, we have to get out of here as soon as possible." "It wouldn't be good if those men in black managed to get around.
Yan Yunxi shook his head, "This ground is thick and soft, like my own bed, I don't want to get up." β
Ye Li's starry eyes looked around, "This valley is isolated from the world, no one has been here for many years, I don't know how many wild beasts live, snakes, insects, rats and ants are countless, maybe there is something hidden under the leaves of the tree you are sitting onββ"
"Ahh Before he finished speaking, he saw Yan Yunxi jumping up as if he had been bitten, his two hands were desperately patting on him, and he asked in a panic, "Is there a snake, is there a snake on me?" Help me take a look! β
Ye Li was a little dumbfounded, he had never seen her so panicked, she was also calm and calm when her life was hanging by a thread just now, what did he say about snakes, insects, rats and ants to scare her, but he didn't expect her to be so afraid of snakes.
"No, no, you don't have anything on you." Seeing that she was panicked, Ye Li hurriedly comforted her, looked around her, and found that her arm was injured, and the red clothes had turned black and red.
"You're hurt! I'm going to have to get you some medicine now. Anxiety flashed in Ye Lixing's eyes, he didn't know how injured she was, it might take a long time to get out of the valley smoothly, and he didn't know if she could hold on.
"You're injured too." Yan Yunxi pointed to Ye Li's leg.
Ye Li noticed that his leg was also injured, "It's okay, I have the medicine here, you ......" Just as he wanted to say that she should take the medicine by herself, a drop of water fell on the tip of his upright nose.
"It's raining." Yan Yunxi looked at the sky, but in the blink of an eye, the clouds gathered up, and the rain had begun to fall.
"The weather in the valley is already changeable, so we have to find a place to shelter from the rain quickly." Ye Li looked around, and the trees in this valley were all low and could not shelter from the rain.
You can't go farther and farther away from Kyoto, Ye Li roughly judged the direction, and the two looked at each other as they walked.
"There!" Yan Yunxi's slender fingers were raised, Ye Li looked in the direction she pointed, it was a cave, and walked over quickly to take a look, the cave was very clean, there were no traces of beasts having lived, and it was obviously not a beast cave.
Ye Li breathed a sigh of relief, but saw Yan Yunxi standing vigilantly at the entrance of the cave and refused to come in, "You, you see if there are any snakes, look carefully!" β
β¦β¦ Faced with the fact that the imperial princess who was not afraid of assassination was so afraid of snakes, Ye Li was suddenly a little funny, but he still checked it carefully, "No, don't worry." β
Yan Yunxi was willing to come in, Ye Li took out the medicine and handed it to her, "Hurry up and apply some medicine to your arm." He tore a piece of cloth from the hem of his midcoat, "I need to bandage it too." β
Yan Yunxi rolled up his sleeves, Ye Li glanced at an arm like snow, and hurriedly turned around. An inch-long wound on the upper arm, a little deep, and the flesh on both sides turned up, Yan Yunxi applied the wound medicine and sighed, "Shizi, I can't bandage it with one hand." β
Ye Li turned around stiffly, her eyes were erratic, but the corner of her eyes could always notice the snow-white lotus arm, which matched the red clothes on her body, which was extremely gorgeous.
Yan Yunxi watched Ye Li come over hand and foot, couldn't help but laugh out loud, and handed him the strip of cloth torn off his middle shirt, "Shizi, thank you for your hard work." β
"No, it's not hard." The tips of Ye Li's ears turned red, and he tried his best not to look at her arm, his eyes fell on the wound, he almost jumped up, and suddenly all his beautiful thoughts were gone, "This, do you hurt?" β
"It still hurts a little, but I can bear it." Yan Yunxi said indifferently.
Ye Li didn't dare to rub it, bandaged her wounds with his hands and feet, and finally tied a beautiful bow for her, he often dressed Ye Qian when he was a child, like the belt of the cloak had to be tied into a bow, and her beautiful sister could be happy.
Yan Yunxi's bright eyes stared at the bow for a moment, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, his hand raised, and threw the bottle of wound medicine to Ye Li, "Bandage your leg as well." β
Ye Li walked to the side, turned his back, sat on the ground, rolled up his trouser legs, quickly applied the medicine, tore another strip from his middle coat, and bandaged it.
The rain gradually stopped, but the sky was already dark, Ye Li looked outside at the entrance of the cave, a little hesitant, they were not familiar with the terrain of this valley, although it was a full moon night, the moon was big and round, but there were only two of them, and it was too dangerous to rush at night. But if he spends the night here, a lonely man and a widow, he doesn't care, and he won't do anything indecent, but he is worried that Yan Yunxi's reputation will not be good, although she is the imperial daughter of the female Luo Kingdom, after all, she is only a seventeen-year-old girl.
"We-" Ye Li turned around and was about to ask Yan Yunxi's opinion, but saw her body curled up in a ball, shaking like chaff, Ye Li was startled, and rushed over to support her, her little face was pale, and her eyes were a little scattered, "You, what's wrong with you!" β
