Chapter Ninety-Six: Trapped in Prison

Located 50 miles outside of Kyoto Castle, Minamiyama Forest is more like a forest than a small group of mountains lined with cliffs. The nest of the bandits is between these cliffs.

The terrain here is high and low, and the cliffs are like natural barriers. is in response to Li Taibai's sentence: The Sword Pavilion is majestic and Cui Wei, one husband is the pass, and ten thousand people are not open.

"Miss. Ye Zhong glanced around and called out with some unease.

"No wonder the imperial court can't do anything about this group of bandits. She looked up thoughtfully at the base camp of this group of bandits, and saw that the smooth cliff was engraved with the three words of Shufeng Village, they were really arrogant!

"Ye Zhong, let's withdraw, don't alarm them. She frowned for a moment, then turned the horse's head and ordered, five hundred horses of silk are important, but the situation here is obviously more serious than she expected, not to mention that she won the bet, even if Leng Tianche leads the troops over, the whole army may be destroyed.

So it was wise to retreat, and she wasn't so stupid as to think that the bandits had seen her and would give her back the silk.

"Yes. Ye Zhong replied with a non-relenting expression, and then made a gesture towards the person behind him.

However, it was too late, and the bandits had already been ambushed in the surrounding woods, and when they saw that they were about to retreat, they rushed out from all directions and surrounded them in the middle.

Yu Xuanji was shocked, it was too bad, it seemed that she had made a mistake.

"Miss, what should I do?" Ye Zhong glanced at the fierce and vicious bandits around him, and couldn't help but panic a little.

And the thirty thugs who came together were already frightened and confused.

"Steady. She was very bottomless in her heart, and her face that pretended to be calm lost a little blood, and her palms were pinched into a cold sweat.

"You are the third lady of the Jade Mansion, Yu Xuanji?" At this moment, a rough and hoarse voice came, like a handful of sand stuck in the throat, which made people feel uncomfortably tight.

A group of thieves with knives and sticks consciously got out of the way, only to see a man with loose hair, less than seven feet in shape, and a round general's belly walking, this man is extremely ugly, and there is a black scar on his face, which is terrifying, his eyes are full of fierce light, and his cheeks are full of scum, which is very disgusting.

Presumably this is the leader of this group of bandits.

"It's not. She shook her head and said, "Miss Ben is the second lady of the Jade Mansion, and the current Yan King's side concubine Yu Wanrou. ”

She said in the usual tone of Yu Wanrou.

Unexpectedly, in exchange for the laughter of the bandit leader.

"Third Miss, you have to think of a more reliable excuse to deceive people! Who in Kyoto doesn't know that the second miss of the Jade Mansion only married King Yan yesterday!"

The bandit leader seemed to be laughing at her.

"Who said that you can't come out if you get married?" Yu Xuanji sneered: "Today, Miss Ben went to the Induction Temple to make a vow, how could I have thought that a slave who doesn't know the way will lead the wrong way." ”

After that, she saw that the bandit leader had a wavering look of suspicion. For this reason, she couldn't help but exhale secretly in her heart, so she faintly guessed who was behind the scenes this time.

The robbery of the silk this time is not a coincidence at all, but has been planned for a long time. It's a pity that she only figured it out now, this time she really made a big mistake, and she actually fell for their plan.

"Master, what can I do?"

The leader of the bandits glanced at Yu Xuanji suspiciously, his eyes rolled faintly, as if he was thinking about something, and laughed for a while: "Whatever you are Second Miss, let's take it back first." ”

"Miss!" Ye Zhong was instantly shocked.

She was silent, her deep eyes seemed to be brewing something, and she could only find a way to break out of the encirclement for now, otherwise they would take it back, and it would really be over. It's just that these bandits are like fleas, and there are so many of them, how easy is it to break out of the encirclement?

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew, rolling up layers of fallen leaves on the ground, and Yu Xuanji subconsciously tightened the reins and blocked her eyes with her hands to prevent the wind and sand from entering her eyes.

Through the gap between her fingers, she squinted, and saw only a dark shadow coming towards her, was it the master?

"Master. She almost blurted out, starry eyes twisting, but it wasn't him.

"What did you say?" Leng Tianche stared directly at her, and he saw her black and white eyes turn from bright stars to dull.

"It's nothing!" she snorted, then pulled her lips and smiled: "Cousin Tianche, you still haven't disappointed my cousin!"

She elbowed him to his chest.

"I'm afraid I'm still disappointing you. He said unbelievably.

"Huh?" She was puzzled, didn't he come?

"I asked the emperor to lead the troops to suppress the bandits, but it was rejected. He said without being salty.

So what he meant by that?

"You're coming alone?" She lowered her voice, her expression slightly distorted.

"Hmm. He glanced at the bandits around him, his face solemn.

This...... Isn't this one more to send them to death? After looking at Ye Zhong and the thugs who saw Leng Tianche, she felt that she had seen the backbone of the main heart, and she really couldn't bear to tell them this cruel truth.

"Stinky boy, Lao Tzu advises you to be a hero. The bandit leader shouted.

"Do you know who he is?" said Yu Xuanji with a smile, and her jaw lifted at the right time.

"Lao Tzu doesn't care who he is, even if the king of heaven Lao Tzu enters this southern mountain forest, he has to come and go. The bandit leader smiled darkly, raised his hand and made a gesture.

Looking at the bandits who were approaching step by step, Yu Xuanji squinted his eyes and said: "He is the general of the Zhenguo Dynasty in the current dynasty, as long as he gives an order, he will catch a turtle in the urn." ”

Hearing this, the bandits suddenly stopped and looked at the bandit leader uncertainly.

Just as they were thinking about it and taking advantage of their unpreparedness, Leng Tianche suddenly flung the reins, and the horse under his crotch neighed, and then galloped up in a rage.

Seeing this, the surrounding bandits were like ants in chaos, and they dodged one after another.

"Keep up. She turned her head and called.

Ye Zhong was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly beat his horse to follow. But since they entered this southern mountain forest, how could they be so easy to escape? Not to mention that they had prepared in advance.

Before the horse left the Nanshan forest, it fell into the trap they arranged, although Leng Tianche reacted in time to hold her and jumped off the horse, but the two were still slightly injured.

She glanced around, the situation was critical, and she and Ye Zhong were all scattered.

"It's okay!" Leng Tianche asked with concern, and pulled her up from the ground.

"Nothing. She patted the leaves stuck to her body and shook her head.

"Run, keep running!"

It was the voice of the bandit leader, and the bandits, who were familiar with the terrain at that time, easily followed them.

"Cousin Tianche, if you can't cope with it for a while, you will get out first. She looked vigilantly at the approaching bandits, and said calmly.

"No, I can't. He decisively rejected her words, how could he leave her and go first?

"Only if you get out first, can you bring troops to save me!" she said anxiously. In this situation, although she has learned a little from her master, it is okay to deal with two or three, but there are at least forty bandits here, and seeing that the pace of these bandits is steady, it must be a practicing family, so it is basically impossible to get out of two at the same time.

"Good. He looked at her and gritted his teeth.

She smiled at him, as if relieved, her cousin was very tenacious, and without the emperor's decree, he really didn't bring troops, which really made her cry and laugh.

She calculated that he would come, but she did not expect him to come alone.

At this moment, Leng Tianche couldn't help but regret that he should have brought troops here, even if the emperor punished him, but now everything he said was false.

The fierce battle is about to break out, Leng Tianche is the general of Zhenguo, and he has been guarding the border for ten years, so he is naturally not a vegetarian, and Yu Xuanji can barely cope with it by relying on the little fur he learned and his own cleverness.

At first, they had the upper hand, but gradually the physical strength of the two of them could not support it, and the bandits who rushed in were more and more.

"Cousin Tianche, let's go!" Yu Xuanji looked at the batch after batch of thieves who were attacking in turn, and couldn't help frowning, dragging it on, and he couldn't leave for a while.

"I'll resist, you go first. ”

"Don't even think about leaving today. The bandit leader shouted angrily when he saw that he had lost so many brothers.

"Ahh

Blood slid down the tip of the knife, her brows and headaches were tangled together, cold threads appeared on her forehead, her eyes were suddenly fierce, and killing intent surged. Enduring the great pain, she turned around, and the sword in her hand pierced the man's heart accurately, and her strength was so great that even the hilt of the knife did not enter the man's body.

Her movements were instantaneous, almost for a split second.

"Cousin!" Leng Tianche turned his head and called.

I saw her face pale in pain and kneeling on the ground.

Leng Tianche was still fighting with the bandits, but when he was distracted, his right arm was slashed, and his eyes suddenly turned hideous, and his physical strength increased suddenly.

There is a trend of becoming more and more courageous.

"Let's go!" she cried out, almost using all her strength, and now she was like a frosted eggplant with no strength, and the bandits took the opportunity to control her.

"General Leng, I advise you to hurry up and arrest her, otherwise Lao Tzu will kill her. The bandit leader put his knife on Yu Xuanji's white neck, and with a slight movement, the neck was cut.

Leng Tianche was forced to throw away the sword blade in his hand helplessly, and a pair of eyes looked at Yu Xuanji who was like a gossamer.

Yu Xuanji only felt a lot of pain in her back, it hurt to the heart, her chest was like a big stone pressed and she couldn't breathe, her eyes were even heavier like a drowning kite, she saw Leng Tianche kicked to the ground, she wanted to speak, but her eyes were disobediently glued together.
