Chapter 120 of the Western Wilderness Scroll

Ye Dushan was lying on the bed, his eyes were always staring at the wooden plank on the bed, and he couldn't fall asleep. He turned over with his right hand on the bed, but he pulled the wound left by the torture during the day, and the pain made him sweat profusely, and when he touched it, in the dark, he found that the clothes on his body were soaked, and he didn't know whether it was sweat or blood oozing from the wound.

He was born in the palace since he was a child, and grew up in fine clothes and food, although he had practiced martial arts, but every time he suffered a slight bruise and bruise, he would be surrounded by his subordinates, and he was so nervous that he could not do it, and he could not say that he had never suffered any flesh and skin, so he was not very proficient in martial arts. But this time, he was tortured by Ye Tian's people for days, and he was ready to die, but out of nowhere, a wave of anger came out, and he actually held on, and even he himself was a little surprised.

There was a sudden noise outside the window, and in the silence, Ye Dushan, who couldn't sleep, could easily catch this sound. He jerked over and sat up, holding his breath, paying attention to the direction the sound was coming from.

It seems that someone has gently poked the wooden stick used to latch the window. There was only one door in the house for entry and exit, and the rest of the side doors and windows were sealed by Ye Tian, leaving only this door and a few gaps for ventilation.

Ye Dushan listened attentively to the movement outside the window, the person outside the door seemed to want to cut the window bolt with a blade, and made a lot of movement, Ye Dushan remembered that there were three or four people guarding the door day and night, and soon there was a noisy sound outside the door, it seemed that the guards at the door were chasing in the direction of the person who broke the window.

The sound of blades cutting abruptly stopped, followed by the sound of fighting, followed by several screams, blood spraying onto the window paper. Ignoring the sharp pain in the wound, Ye Dushan reluctantly stood up, walked to the side of the bed, and inquired about the movement outside the window.

Before he could see clearly, there were two more screams, and then he heard footsteps moving from the window to the door. A person kicked in the door, looked around in the dark, his sharp eyes were like a glimmer in the night, and he quickly found the location of Ye Dushan. He took two steps, grabbed Ye Dushan's wrist and ran out of the door.

"Who are you......" Ye Dushan's injuries had not healed, and he was dragged to run for a while, already a little out of breath.

The man didn't seem to have time to answer, so he only replied casually: "Your Majesty, don't worry!"

Along the road, he met a few groups of people who rushed to come, the man held a steel knife in his hand, the knife fell in his hand, the blood flowers bloomed, and he rampaged with Ye Dushan, in the shadow of the sword and sword, he was dragged left and right by the mysterious man, and many wounds on his body were cracked, and he grinned in pain. However, Ye Dushan seemed to be lucky, and not a single sword fell on him.

The mysterious man fought his way out of the encirclement, kept some distance from the people chasing behind him, and then pulled Ye Dushan into a secluded alley. He made a silent gesture at Ye Dushan, leaning his whole body against the wall, quietly looking sideways.

I don't know how long it took, a series of footsteps outside came and went, never far away, but always kept a safe distance from Ye Dushan, as if he had lost his direction, searching for Ye Dushan like a headless fly in the streets and alleys.

The mysterious man finally turned around and bowed to Ye Dushan on his knees: "My subordinates are late to save the car, Your Majesty is atoning for your sins." ”

Ye Dushan was still inexplicable, staring at the mysterious person, frowning, "Who are you?"

"Your Majesty has always been trapped in the hands of traitors, and Commander Mu is worried all day long, so he specially sent his subordinates to rescue him. Ye Tian's thief set up a banquet in the main hall tonight, and his subordinates took the opportunity to rush over and take His Majesty to kill him!"

Ye Dushan grinned and said, "You alone can take me out?"

"May I die for Your Majesty. The mystery man nodded heavily.

"There is no point in dying like that. Ye Dushan shook his head again and again, "You are good, where did Mu Changsheng find you?"

"Weichen is a personal soldier brought by Commander Mu when he broke through the city, and Commander Mu ordered his subordinates to tell His Majesty. Entrusted by His Majesty, Commander Mu has never slackened and has always been running for the great cause. ”

Ye Dushan asked with interest: "You say, what does the 'great cause' in his mouth mean?"

The mysterious man lowered his head, and Ye Dushan couldn't see his expression: "My subordinates don't know, so I don't dare to say anything." ”

Ye Dushan was noncommittal, and then asked, "When did you come to Zhongzhou?"

The man replied: "My subordinates encountered some trouble when entering the customs, so I only arrived last night, and I happened to meet Ye Tian who held a banquet in the main hall today, which made His Majesty suffer, and his subordinates should die." ”

Ye Dushan smiled, revealing his white teeth: "What are you going to do next?"

"Ye Tian's people can't find them for a while, but it's still very difficult to get out of trouble, so his subordinates go out first to lure away their people, and Your Majesty can take advantage of the chaos to escape. ”

"Oh. Ye Dushan said with a smile: "You were not majestic before, but you got rid of the pursuers after two turns, and this group of people seemed to be blind, and they turned around at least three or four times outside, but they couldn't find us, do you think it's strange?"

"The subordinates have specially investigated, this piece was originally the residence of the people in the palace, but it has been abandoned for some days, the simple houses are densely arranged, and there are many sundries piled up, which is not easy to walk through, and the road taken by His Majesty is specially selected by his subordinates. The mysterious man replied calmly.

"That's the problem. ”

The mysterious man looked up in surprise, only to see the light flashing in Ye Dushan's eyes.

"You said that you only came to Zhongzhou last night, and you can find out about Ye Tian's banquet, and you can also explore the layout and roads of this place clearly. This place has been abandoned for many years, and Ye Tian has been here for more than a month, and Ye Tian can't detect the hiding place you think of?"

"Do you think Ye Tian is a fool, or do you think I am a fool?" Ye Dushan looked into the eyes of the mysterious man and suddenly smiled.

"Subordinate......" The man looked a little embarrassed, and wanted to open his mouth to defend himself, but was interrupted by Ye Dushan: "I ask you, there were originally seven or eight people guarding outside my gate, why did you come to the rescue today, and just happened to run into nearly half of them? Isn't this intentional?"

The man hurriedly replied, "No...... In the past, there were four guards, exactly the same as today......" As he spoke, he suddenly realized that he had lost his words and hurriedly stopped and lowered his head.

"Actually, I don't know how many people are outside the door, they never enter the door, and they are athletic enough to hide their breath. Ye Dushan said with a smile: "And the few people guarding today have heavy steps, including the people who pursued later, are obviously just ordinary people. ”

The man's expression became even more nervous, and Ye Dushan continued: "Ye Tian should know that I have practiced martial arts, and I don't dare to act and fake, so I made this decision, let these wastes be responsible for tonight's duty, and create opportunities for you, anyway, these people are useless, and if they are killed, they will be killed, which is really in line with the ruthless nature of my uncle." It's just that although I am far inferior to Senior Brother Mu, if I want to fool me just by relying on these goods, I will be underestimated. ”

The mysterious man kept his head down, and his body seemed to tremble slightly. Ye Dushan patted the dust on his body, yawned lazily, and said with a smile: "Since you have said it, you might as well say it directly, Ye Tian sent you here just for the Son of Heaven Seal, right? I don't have the seal of the Son of Heaven, I have this life, you can take it casually, just do it here!"

The man looked up tremblingly, his eyes full of panic. Ye Dushan looked at him like this, couldn't help but sneer, and wanted to say some mocking words, suddenly, Ye Dushan saw from the reflection in his eyes that a black figure was quickly approaching. Before he could turn around, suddenly the cold light flashed, and the mysterious man had already covered his neck, blood flowed from between his fingers, his face was full of panic, and life quickly passed from his eyes. Before Ye Dushan could react, he had already fallen to the ground, and his blood gradually gathered into a pool of blood.

Ye Dushan was startled, struggled to stand up, and found that in the dark and narrow alleyway, in addition to himself and the corpse that was still spurting blood on the ground, another person had already appeared, and only a vague outline could be seen in the darkness. Ye Dushan's pupils contracted suddenly.

......

Xiao Mu stood on the city wall with a worried face, in fact, as far as his eyes could see, there was only the vast plain of Yunzhou, but he always felt that he could see rolling smoke and dust and galloping cavalry in the distance.

Feng Jianbei had a sword hanging from his waist, leaned against the city wall, and asked lightly: "Is the prince worried about the eastbound desert wolf camp?"

Xiao Mu nodded and said: "I have heard that the Desert Wolf Camp is fierce, and this time I have crossed thousands of miles to the east, and it must be false to say that this king is not worried." Isn't General Feng worried?"

"But according to the direction of the Desert Wolf Battalion's march, there is no intention of passing through Yunzhou. But they made it clear that they were heading for Qingzhou, maybe they wanted to help the prince take care of Fang Hui in Dongliu City. Feng Jianbei always drooped his head and didn't look at Xiao Mu.

Xiao Mu frowned: "This king has had contact with Suo Pingzhang of Shajiang City, and for some reason, I always feel that Shajiang City is playing a mysterious and dangerous role, but it does not show traces. Maybe after Qingzhou, the minions of the Desert Wolf Battalion will reach out to us. He turned his head to look at Feng Jianbei and said, "General Feng doesn't seem to be too worried?"

"We're in the city, no matter how powerful the Steppenwolf is, can we still climb the wall?"

Xiao Mu had long been dissatisfied with Feng Jianbei's attitude, and he couldn't help sneering: "Then when the Desert Wolf Battalion breaks through the city gate, this king and tens of thousands of soldiers will still need to rely on General Feng's sword." ”

Feng Jianbei smiled indifferently, and didn't care about the sarcasm in Xiao Mu's words: "Before worrying about whether the Desert Wolf Camp will attack the city, Lord Xiao should have other things to worry about, right?"

Xiao Mu frowned and was silent.

"The Desert Wolf Battalion has never gone on an expedition, and the Desert Wolf is extremely difficult to control, even if it is the Desert Wolf Battalion, it is inevitable that there will be mistakes. It is said that hundreds of steppenwolves have broken away from the formation and fled into the mountains and wilderness along the way. If the Moyuan wolf is left to breed here, as the lord of a domain, how serious is this matter, there is no need to say more, right?"
