Chapter 366: Pursuing the King
Everything happened so fast. The sneak attackers still had an absolute advantage just now, and in the blink of an eye, one of them had been killed by Luo Ming. The Empress Dowager hasn't figured out what's going on at all.
With the force of that impact, Luo Ming slowly saw the scene in front of him clearly. Most of his consciousness was still in an anomalous state of confusion, and his movements were uncoordinated. He even forgot that his left hand was still holding the sword that had been twisted into a twisted sword.
Everything seemed to be done by instinct, and the other sneak attacker closest to him had already stabbed the long sword in his hand into Lin Yi's abdomen at this time. Seeing that Luo Ming was awake, she didn't have time to complete her movements, and continued to go deep into that sword, so she hurriedly turned around to deal with Luo Ming.
Her reaction was indeed incredibly fast. After releasing the hilt of the sword with his right hand, with just a beautiful sideways turn, he knocked out a Blue Soul low-level skill "Fire Dance Meteor".
This is one of the shortest preparation times of all Blue Soul skills. Huge fireballs flew with a crackling flame.
But Luo Ming seemed to know her thoughts for a long time, and before her fireball could fly out of his palm, he had already turned over and jumped into the air.
One skill hits fast, and the other's dodge is even more amazing. In the eyes of the Empress Dowager Yuan and other onlookers, the two of them seemed to have been rehearsed many times in advance, and they cooperated wonderfully.
The big fireball flew over where Luo Ming had just stood and smashed into a big tree. The tree burst into flames, and the flowers and leaves of the tree curled and flew in all directions.
Qin Tianzhu, who was still unsteady when he landed, stumbled and almost fell. He lunged forward, lightning from behind a tree to the assailant's flank. It's too late for the sneak attacker to send another skill out. So he brazenly raised his leg and kicked at Luo Ming.
This was like a charcoal in the snow, which made Luo Ming happy. What he expects most is for people to go toe-to-toe with him on physical output. Seeing the other party kick him, he stretched out his left foot and stepped on it. I heard the sound of a broken leg accompanied by the screams of the man, who had fallen to the ground.
Luo Ming turned around and threw out his left-handed sword and struck at the third sneak attacker, and at the same time, the whole person fell backwards, letting go of the skill that the sneak attacker was sending at him.
Although the sword had been twisted into a twisted shape, Luo Ming used a clever "Charged Finger" technique when he sent it out. The twist sword spun in the air and flew towards the target. The hilt of the sword slammed into the man's head with a precise "thump", and the man flew backwards without even snorting.
At this time, Xiao Yu, Lin Yi and the surviving soldiers were all awake one after another, and although their spirits were very poor, they were finally able to move. Xiao Yu is in the best condition, and immediately checks the surrounding situation. Lin Yi was injured by the sword in the abdomen, and he screamed, and he drew his sword to cut the Empress Dowager Yuan and the women who followed her, but was stopped by Luo Ming.
Luo Ming stood up from the ground a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "The Queen Mother is the foundation of the country, and you can't kill it in vain!" Several personal soldiers took care of the Queen Mother and the others. Lin Yi was injured and in pain, so he threw away his sword and scolded Luo Ming, what did this younger brother do, why didn't he save him. Luo Ming had no choice but to smile and apologize and say that next time he would do his best to save her first. Lin Xiaoshuang said hatefully: "Is there another time?" Regardless of the pain on his body, he was still bleeding, and wanted to raise his sword to cut the Empress Dowager Yuan, but was finally persuaded by Luo Ming to come back.
Xiao Yu had already checked it and came back, saying that the first sneak attacker who was shot away by Luo Ming had been killed, the second sneak attacker with a broken leg bone had been firmly controlled by his own soldiers, and the third had a broken skull and could not be saved.
The Empress Dowager Yuan saw a thousand calculations, but when the great work was about to be completed, she was instantly turned over by the other party, and couldn't help but sigh at the sky: "It's really heaven that can't help me!" Luo Ming laughed and said: "Queen Mother, it's not that God won't help you, it's really God has already explained: this king can't be killed!"
Luo Ming was about to interrogate the women. Lin Yi, who was bandaging his wounds, glanced at it and saw that the palace maid on the ground who was sneaking up on the ground was peeking at the Queen Mother and the others, and glancing at a rockery near them. She immediately pushed away the soldiers who were bandaging her, and limped to see the rockery. Everyone gathered around to look, and sure enough, they found a tunnel entrance behind the mountain.
Luo Ming's face immediately changed slightly, and he ordered Xiao Yu to go out immediately to inform Jiang Tengjiao to assemble the team, and send a team of fifty soldiers to come in and search the tunnel.
Sure enough, the soldiers killed and captured a group of people in the tunnels. They were responsible for picking up the Queen Mother and them after the Queen Mother's plan was successful. At this time, suddenly a soldier came to report, and the north outside the city was dusty, and it seemed that a large group of men and horses were coming.
The soldiers who came later were more specific, it was Zuo Sima Linmo of the Eastern Holy Kingdom who led an army of 50,000, and kept saying that he was sworn to block the enemy's northward advance.
"Why am I going north? Isn't there a mountain in the north, and then the sea?" said Luo Mingqi.
Jiang Tengjiao said, "He means to cover King Pei Xianghai's escape, right?" Luo Ming smiled, and smiled happily. Jiang Tengjiao asked him why he was laughing, and he said, "This is called wanting to cover up." He's trying to draw our attention to the north. We came from the west, and to the south and east they were the sea. Xiao Yu, you hurry up and see if they are going east or south, if they are allowed to get on the boat, it will be difficult to catch. ”
Lin Yi was injured and rested, and Jiang Tengjiao temporarily assumed the command of the two armies. Ordered to select 200 fast horses, and the members of the Flying Tigers formed a fast pursuit force, each equipped with 30 crossbow arrows, and waited for the results of Xiao Yu's reconnaissance.
After a while, Xiao Yu returned. It is said that a large group of men and horses moved to the northeast of the port of Green Wave, which was mixed with the king's flag and carriages. Luo Ming was extremely surprised when he heard this, and said in his heart, how can there be such an escape? I can't forget to put on a score when I run away? I let people chase after him with a banner? Although the king's carriage is luxurious and stable, it moves slowly, why don't you change to other carriages? Could it be a suspicious tactic used to confuse me?
He asked Xiao Yu repeatedly, and Xiao Yu said with certainty: I have looked very carefully, and there are no large-scale moving people in this land. Luo Mingzhu thought for a while, and said in his heart that he should care about him. The rapid pursuit force was ordered to set off immediately and pursue Pei Xianghai. He also ordered Jiang Tengjiao to leave 5,000 troops to guard Hanhai City after defeating Lin Mo's army as soon as possible, and led the rest of the troops to also rush to participate in the pursuit of Pei Xianghai.
After everyone split up, Luo Ming asked Xiao Yu: "Can they catch up?" Xiao Yu shook her head gloomily, saying that she was afraid that it would be too late. Luo Ming said: Come, take me to see. Maybe the two of us can intercept them.
