"Yuan Gongzi!" I screamed in fright, and he gritted his teeth, cold sweat came out on his forehead, but he didn't say a word, just hugged me hard and protected me.

And when the man with the scimitar saw him, he was stunned for a moment, as if he remembered something, and when his gaze fell on me, a hideous expression suddenly appeared on his face, and he sneered: "It's this woman." As soon as he finished speaking, he roared and slashed at me with his scimitar.

This person - is he trying to kill me?!

Why, kill me?!

At this moment, I was stunned, but Yuan Gongzi did not hesitate at all, holding me and dodging the man's blow, at this time there were more and more people who climbed the city tower from the cloud ladder, and the soldiers on the city tower were killed, no one could take care of us anymore, Yuan Gongzi could only hold me in the blade to dodge left and right, several times the sharp blade almost cut my body, but he was forced to carry it!

However, he was wounded, and it was very exhausting to dodge me like this, and in a few moments I could feel the violent heaving and heaving of his chest, and his heavy gasp, and the burqa on his shoulders was already stained with blood!

"Yuan Gongzi, let me go!"

After all, it's not him who this person wants to kill, and if he continues like this, I'm afraid that Yuan Gongzi will be affected!

After listening to my words, he just gritted his teeth and held my hand harder, even if I tried to break free, there was no way at all.

After dodging the man's knife again, Yuan Gongzi stood at the top of the stairs of the city tower with me in his arms, and there were steps below.

There is no way back!

The man looked at us, a grim smile like a beast hunting appeared on his face, and Yuan Gongzi stared at him breathlessly, watching him approach step by step.

At this time, Yuan Gongzi's servant suddenly rushed over, and when he saw that person was about to attack us, he immediately shouted in shock: "Childe?!" ”

The man with the scimitar was also startled and turned to look at him.

At this moment, Yuan Gongzi suddenly turned around with me in his arms, flashed in front of the servant, pulled out the sword at his waist with his other hand, and waved it backhand!

The cold glow of the long sword drew a rainbow in the air, with a penetrating chill, like lightning in an instant, and it sank into the man's throat!

I was speechless and looked at the man with wide eyes.

The scimitar in that man's hand had reached my shoulder, and he was only half a minute away from being cut off, but there was no way to hurt me anymore, his eyes bulged out like dead fish, and he stared straight at Yuan Gongzi, his face was full of shock, as if he couldn't believe that he would be killed.

Yuan Gongzi's face was still indifferent, but his gaze was unwavering.

There was a gurgling sound in the man's throat, but he seemed to be holding his breath and couldn't speak, until Yuan Gongzi pulled out the long sword suddenly, and suddenly a stream of blood shot out, and he hurriedly reached out to stop me behind him, and the blood splashed all over him.

The man finally spit out in one breath and said to him, "You-you-you-you ......!" ”

Yuan Gongzi looked at him and said calmly: "It's okay to hurt her." ”

“……！”

Hearing their conversation, my heart seemed to suddenly open a hole, like the dark clouds in the sky being penetrated by the sun, something was about to come out, desperately churning in my mind!

He...... He......

Why did he protect me like that?

I looked up at him, and his handsome face was stained with a few drops of blood in the wind, but I didn't feel filthy at all, but there was a hint of indescribable cruelty in that amazing handsomeness.

On his body, the snow-white robe was also stained with blood, as if patches of red plums had fallen in the snow, so poignant.

I was held in his arms, unable to say a word, and after a long time, he slowly turned his head to look at me: "You're not hurt, are you?" ”

"......" I shook my head.

"It's okay." As he spoke, he gently let go of me, and reached out to wipe my cheeks, only to feel a burst of damp heat on his skin, and there should be blood splashed on my face, he wiped the blood off my face, and said, "Don't worry, as long as I'm here, I won't let anyone hurt you." ”

My heart was beating so hard, I don't know if it was because of the line of life and death just now, or because of facing him like this, I gritted my teeth and finally said, "You, who are you?" ”

"......" his finger rested on my face.

"Why are you protecting me like this?"

“……”

"Have we known each other for a long time? What is the relationship between you and me? ”

At this moment, many images of our acquaintance flashed in my mind, and I suddenly felt that those were not coincidences, and every word he said to me seemed to have another meaning.

The fingers that stopped on my cheeks trembled slightly, and even his long eyelashes trembled slightly, and under the crow's winged eyelashes, there was an uncertain light in the eyes that were clear and clear in both directions.

I don't know how long it took, but he finally spoke, but his voice was a little strangely hoarse: "Now, it's not the time to talk about this." ”

“……！”

I suddenly came back to my senses, indeed, now is not the time to talk about this, there are more and more enemies who have climbed the tower, and those soldiers have completely launched a white-knuckle battle, flesh and blood are flying between the swords and swords, countless people have fallen, and blood has flowed all over the ground, like a river of blood!

If it goes on like this, it won't work!

The people I brought with me have also participated in the battle for a long time, but now it is only a stalemate, in case they can't resist, and the city gate is opened by Katsukyo's people inside, the consequences are unimaginable!

Thinking of this, I hurriedly turned around and ran downstairs in the city, and Yuan Gongzi hurriedly caught up with me: "What are you going to do?" ”

"I'm going to inform my husband that someone must be sent!"

When I heard the words "my husband," his hand stiffened and did not grasp me, and I continued to run down, but there were no horses under the castle tower, so I went up and dismantled the carriage and untied one of the horses.

Yuan Gongzi chased after him again: "You-"

"I'm going to the North Gate!"

After I finished speaking, I was about to turn over and get on the horse, but at this moment, a strong gust of wind suddenly came, with a smell of rust in the wind, and I almost didn't react when I heard Yuan Gongzi shouting: "Be careful!" ”

As soon as the words fell, I was slammed to the ground by him, and over his shoulder, I saw the dense raindrops in the sky flickering and falling towards us, and everywhere I went, the walls cracked through the doors, and countless holes were pierced into the city walls!

The rain - not the rain, but the crossbows!

And there was a crossbow that shot right where I was standing, and a small earth vortex was shot out of the ground!

I was stunned at this moment, Yuan Gongzi hugged me tightly, looked back at the mess, his face became solemn, and said: "This is the most commonly used iron crossbow in the grassland siege city, fired with a machine car, the range is several times longer than that of an ordinary bow and crossbow, and sometimes it can even shoot through the shield!" ”

He slowly raised his head and looked at the northern sky: "They, they are going to attack the city!" ”

The battle in the north is not optimistic, but---I look back, and I don't know how many more people have fallen on the towers here, and no matter what, they must not be allowed to succeed!

I gritted my teeth and said, "I must go over and sue them!" ”

After speaking, I struggled to stand up, looking at the rain of iron crossbow arrows in the distance, my heart was also a little frightened, my palms were full of sweat, and I could only hold on to the reins hard to make myself not so afraid.

Just as I was about to turn over and get on the horse, Yuan Gongzi walked up to my side and grabbed my hand: "You really want to go!" ”

"Hmm!"

If they do come in...... The people in the city, the soldiers who defended the city, and Yuan Yichu, Yuan Gongzi, and me...... Perhaps, there is also a departure in Texas, all the people, it's over!

He looked at me, was silent for a moment, and said, "Okay." ”

Good? Good what?

Before I could react, the reins in his hand had fallen into his hand, and as soon as he rolled over, he jumped on his horse, and leaned over and stretched out a hand towards me.

"I'm with you!"

It doesn't feel good to sit on horseback and gallop, as if you're going to tear your bones apart, but it's still much better when someone behind you is holding you hard and has a broad chest to lean on.

This is how I was held tightly by Yuan Gongzi and galloped all the way.

Although I have known him for a long time, the time to really get along with him is actually less than a day, I only know that he is proficient in music and rhythm, well-read, but I didn't expect him to have such good riding skills.

The horse under his crotch almost became a part of his body, and he walked freely through the rain of arrows from the iron crossbow, and when he saw another rain of arrows coming, he took the reins and let the horse run under the earthen wall on the side, and when several arrows came at him, he was always able to deftly dodge without being hurt at all.

Before we knew it, we were getting closer and closer to the North Gate.

The dark clouds in the sky are getting thicker and thicker, there is a kind of mountain rain that is about to come and the wind is full of depression, and a loud rumbling sound can be heard in front of me, and I also know that it must be the sound of the enemy attacking the city and slamming the door!

It seems that the fierceness of the battle there is no less than that of the West City Gate!

I looked at the tall tower in front of me, standing in the gloomy sky, pointed there and said, "There it is!" ”

"Hmm."

Yuan Gongzi's voice behind me seemed very deep, as if there was a moment of hesitation and distraction, I felt a little strange, and subconsciously looked back at him, only to see his handsome eyebrows slightly frowned, and a trace of ripples in his eyes like a quiet lake.

What's wrong?

I felt that something seemed wrong with him, and just as I was about to ask, he suddenly raised his head and looked ahead, his face stunned: "Be careful! ”

I saw another rain of iron crossbow arrows flying towards us in front of us, the iron crossbow was extremely fast, and it was close in front of us in an instant, but before the arrow arrived, it had already stirred up a gust of wind, and slammed into us, shocking our clothes and long hair to fly!
