Chapter 437: Difficult Escape
Shenghe City, underground blood pool.
"Zuo Protector, I found the Yan Kingdom Secret Guard, and they are fleeing out. ”
The hoarse voice of the left protector sounded, "Dark Wuwei, they are the elite of the Yan Kingdom, they all have good cultivation, their qi and blood are great supplements to the young master, go and catch them, and they want to live......"
"Yes. ”
The voice of the Left Protector fell, and there was such a response from behind him, and before the Left Protector could speak, the disciples of the Shadow Sect had quietly retreated.
The blood pool regained its calm again, and under the black robe, the eyes of the left protector flashed with a glint of light, as if excited and crazy.
Outside the city.
"Captain, put me down, you go quickly, leave me alone, delay the enemy as much as possible, and buy time for the adults. ”
A seriously injured member of the Dark Warrior Guard said that his internal organs were all hit hard, Zhenyuan escaped, and he couldn't live long, at this time, taking him with him was tantamount to carrying a burden, dragging him down as a captain.
At that time, although his eyes were dim, he was still full of determination, he never regretted joining the Dark Guard, and he never regretted following Liu Yi.
This time, they encountered an enemy that was too strong, dozens of infant monks, this was not something they could handle, and they were trapped in Shenghe City.
Of course, if they keep hiding, the enemies may not be able to spot them.
However, they can't be so silent, as a secret guard, they must provide accurate information to the empire, the information they have passed out before, only a few words, is not accurate, if the imperial court despises the enemy because of this, or the saint and the two princes come alone, they are afraid of the bad luck, they must pass on the real situation.
When Liu Yi made such a decision, none of the surviving dark guards objected, and everyone consciously cooperated with Liu Yi, because Lord Liu Yi was the most likely person among them to break out of the formation.
"Shut up. The man called the captain sneered and asked him to abandon his comrades and run away alone, he couldn't do it, although their secret guards walked in the dark all year round, they also had a unique comradeship.
For so many years, if it weren't for each of their members of the Dark Martial Arts Guard supporting each other and helping each other, it would not be possible to achieve today's achievements.
"Captain, take me, and I'll soon catch up. A weak voice came from the captain's ear, "Besides, I won't survive, cough cough ......"
As he was talking, he coughed a few times suddenly, and the red blood shot out of the corner of his mouth, he barely calmed down, not letting himself fluctuate too much, and the coughing stopped, only to hear him continue: "Captain, you can't go far with me, let me go, only in this way can you buy enough time for Lord Liu Yi, if you ...... If the captain survives, don't let it ...... Blame yourself for it. ”
"Don't say it, I can do it, I can take you away. The captain spoke firmly, asking him to abandon his comrades, which was impossible.
Of course, he wanted to buy as much time as possible for Lord Liu Yi, but he also knew that whether he brought his comrade-in-arms with him or not, it was impossible to escape too far.
Although it is very frustrating to say this, but the truth is that his cultivation is far less powerful than that of the enemy, and his speed is not as fast as the enemy.
The reason why he was able to escape to this point was only because of the opportunity and time that his comrades-in-arms had exchanged their lives for.
If he is first, it may be his turn.
Putting down his seriously injured teammates, he might be a little faster, but how could he be faster than the Infant Monk, he couldn't run far at all, and in this flat realm, he didn't even have a place to hide.
Since he couldn't escape, and it couldn't be delayed for long, why should he give up his comrades.
"There they are, chasing ......"
Not long after the captain's voice fell, such shouts came from behind them.
The pursuers, caught up.
The injured member of the Dark Guard stopped talking, he didn't want to distract his captain anymore.
The only thing that made them feel fortunate was that this time they found their enemy, and it was not the Infant Friar.
The captain's face was solemn, his eyes were shining, and he was thinking about how to throw it to the enemy as he fled.
The terrain here is flat, but three miles ahead, there are dwellings, but the captain is hesitating in his heart, the enemy is ferocious, and the pursuing soldiers will lead to dwellings, it is inevitable that these enemies will not slaughter ordinary people in a frenzy, after all, the matter of Shenghe City is in front of him.
"If you can't go there, then you can only go in the direction of the river on the right......" After some consideration, he finally decided to flee to the river, maybe he could use the river to avoid the enemy, and even if he couldn't, he must not let the enemy catch him and become a prisoner.
The Dark Guard, only the dead soldiers, no living captives, like this, the captain used his body, jumped for life, and quickly approached the river.
......
Wanjia Town, Lotus Pond.
"He couldn't escape far, so he scattered for me to search. ”
"Head, what's so special about this Liu Yi, why did the boss have to kill him?"
Hearing this, the leader glared at his subordinates fiercely and scolded angrily: "Is this what you should ask, ah? ”
"You all keep my eyes open, don't let him run away, and once you find out about Liu Yi's whereabouts, send a signal immediately. ”
"Yes. ”
When his subordinates heard his words, they immediately scattered around, but they were still very curious in their hearts, that Liu Yi was just a martial artist in the Spirit Pill Realm, but the big man above wanted to kill this person by name, could it be that Liu Yi was hiding some secret?
Of course, even if there are really any secrets, they can't dig them up, what they said is very right, if they find out Liu Yi's secrets, they don't know whether they are alive or dead, and some secrets are not something they can know with this identity, all they have to do is to try their best to complete the tasks assigned by the above.
These people scattered around looking for Liu Yi's traces, but they didn't know that when they were asking questions, under the water of the Lotus Pond, there was also a person who pricked up his ears to listen, and this person was Liu Yi with a changed body shape.
However, to Liu Yi's disappointment, he didn't hear the answer he wanted to hear.
Even if he was underwater, Liu Yi could only restrain the breath all over his body, for fear that the enemy would sense his breath.
"Why don't you leave ......?"
Liu Yi was anxious in his heart, he had been trapped underwater for two quarters of an hour, but the person in charge of the search still did not leave, not only that, but also explored the underwater of the lotus pond with his mind from time to time, if it weren't for Liu Yi's cultivation of a special method of concealing the aura, I am afraid that it would have been discovered long ago.
However, this is not a long-term solution after all, even if he can withstand not breathing for a long time, but time waits for no one, he must rush out as soon as possible to report the news, so as to avoid the Holy Lord from making rash decisions or risking his life.
These enemies are too terrible to deal with alone.
"It can't go on like this. Liu Yi secretly said in his heart, the thoughts in his mind turned sharply, but in a hurry, he didn't have any ideas, but not long after, a spiritual light flashed in his mind: This lotus pond is surging, isn't it an undercurrent?
With this thought, he let go of his senses, and the undercurrent poured in to see if it was really what he thought.
"Really?"
Liu Yi's heart swelled with a trace of excitement, there was an undercurrent, he might be able to use the underwater undercurrent to get rid of these enemies.
Thinking like this, he took advantage of the enemy's attention to no longer fall under the pond, and slowly moved his body to the outlet of the undercurrent.
After about half a cup of tea, Liu Yi finally came to the exit of the undercurrent pouring into the lotus pond, and his eyes swelled with excitement again, because the entrance was very large, and adults were completely able to pass.
"Let's go!"
He instantly plunged into the undercurrent.
"There's someone underwater!"
The movement below also alarmed the people on the shore, and the leader who pursued Liu Yi exclaimed, and then shouted to his subordinates: "Why don't you go down and search ...... quickly."
Thump!
At the moment when his voice fell, several watery voices sounded.
After a while, someone came out of the water and shouted at the leader: "Head, there is an undercurrent entrance under the water, which allows people to pass." ”
"Chase!" the leader blurted out, "you immediately follow the undercurrent, don't let him run away." ”
The man re-dived again, while the leader left with the men on the shore.
"This place is close to the big river, and the undercurrent must lead to the big river, so follow me. ”
With that, he left in a hurry while the rest of the people were left.
Besides, Liu Yi, who got into the undercurrent channel, was a little depressed in his heart, and when he entered the undercurrent channel, he was a little anxious, but he still made a move.
He didn't have a little luck in his heart, because the enemy was too strong, he knew that with the enemy's keenness, he would definitely notice the movement underwater, and this undercurrent channel would soon be discovered.
His speed was very fast, but he was still faintly uneasy in his heart, if he was a pursuer, he would definitely pursue from both land and water, on the one hand, he would send people to pursue from the undercurrent channel, and on the other hand, he would rush from the land to the undercurrent exit.
The big river, the undercurrent of the Lotus Pond, must have poured in from the big river, because in this vicinity, only the big river has such conditions.
Of course, knowing that there is a large river on the other side of the undercurrent does not necessarily mean that the exact location of the outlet is the only advantage.
Liu Yi had to be quick to rush out of the undercurrent channel and into the river before the enemy found the exit at the other end.
Although the waters of the great river are fierce and hide unknown dangers, it is better than being trapped in one place.
Liu Yi quickly shuttled through the undercurrent channel, but the speed of the people chasing him was not at all, Liu Yi could clearly feel that the strong aura coming from behind was constantly approaching him, Liu Yi's face was gloomy, the speed of the pursuers under the water was so fast, the people who rushed from the land to the big river were comfortable, but he couldn't come up with a better way to do this, he could only encourage the true yuan of the whole body, and constantly speed up.
Between the chasing, time kept passing, and Liu Yi didn't know how long it was, but at this time, he obviously felt that the underwater resistance had become greater, and he was not surprised, because it meant that he was about to rush out of the undercurrent channel.
Sure enough, in a few minutes, he entered the river from the undercurrent channel, and as soon as he entered the river, he did not hesitate to swim directly upstream.
The upper reaches of the big river are the direction where Tianshui City is located.
The reason why the big river is called the big river is because it starts from the west of the Yan country in the west and connects the Tian Mountains, all the way to the east, flows through the countries, and finally flows into the vast East China Sea, which is a river that runs through the entire Yaotai region, and the name of the big river has been passed down since ancient times.
When Liu Yi rushed out of the road, the people chasing behind him also rushed out, they rushed out of the water for the first time, and after not feeling Liu Yi's breath, one person said: "He must have left from underwater, I think he must be going upstream of the big river, No. 3, you stay and wait for the leader, and the others will chase after me." ”
They didn't go underwater, there were a lot of undercurrents underwater, even with their cultivation, they didn't dare to stay under the river for too long, after all, they were not madmen like Liu Yi who didn't want to die. What's more, to pursue from land, it will be faster.
......
"Your Highness, we are less than a hundred miles away from Shenghe City, but the brothers below are tired, should we take a rest. A general of the Anbei Army personally came to Yan Qingxin and Huang Wenxuan to ask for instructions.
Although the Anbei army is an elite, it is already tired after several tosses, and it has rushed nearly 300 miles one after another, even if it is an iron man, it will also feel tired.
"Your Highness, don't take a break. Huang Wenxuan opened his mouth and said, he was not tired, but he had another thought, the soldiers of the Anbei Army were tired, if they didn't take a break and go to Shenghe City, what kind of accident would they really take, how to deal with emergencies with a tired army.
"Good. Yan Qingxuan thought about it, agreed with Huang Wenxuan's suggestion, and said to the guards beside him: "Order, the whole army will rest in place and rest for a while." ”
"Honorable Order. ”
The guards immediately ordered the whole army, and the 150,000-strong army stopped.
"Alas......"
Looking at the tired soldiers, Yan Qingxin sighed, his eyes were full of distress, commander, how could anyone not feel sorry for his own soldiers, but this time there was an accident in Shenghe City, time was pressing, and he could only work hard for the soldiers below.
Fortunately, the fighters below all understood and had no complaints.
"Your Highness, there is still a distance of a hundred miles, but I feel that the enemy is already close at hand. Huang Wenxuan said to Yan Qingxin, "I always feel that someone is staring at us, waiting for us to rush to Shenghe City. ”
Yan Qingxin nodded, he also felt like this, he had led the troops for many years, and he would have a faint sense of danger, and he believed in his intuition.
But, even if it is dangerous, he must go, the people of Shenghe City are waiting for him, and the Shengshang and Yandu officials are also waiting for his news, he can't be afraid.
Huang Wenxuan retreated from all the soldiers around him, and said to Yan Qingxin in a deep voice: "The old minister is still the same sentence, if there is another change in Shenghe City, please don't hesitate and lead the troops away immediately." ”
Hearing this, Yan Qingxin was silent, he raised his eyes to look at the dark night sky, and was silent for a long time, about an hour later, near dawn, Yan Qingxin said: "It's time to go!"
"Order, the whole army is leaving!"
The herald immediately shouted with his command: "Go!"
