Chapter 197: Sneak Attack (Extra 9)
"Drive! Drive! β
After Lu Yan's guidance, Rong Ling was already able to control the wind chasing alone.
Although her horseback riding skills are not proficient enough, it is already very powerful for Rong Ling, who is learning for the first time.
Lu Yan stood in place, watching Rong Ling run over on the wind, and a relieved smile gradually appeared on his face.
Because, even if one day, he leaves this world and returns to his original identity as Lu Ruotian, he can entrust Chasing the Wind to Rong Ling with peace of mind.
That way, at least neither she nor it will feel alone.
"Phewβ"
After running a few laps on the wind, Rong Ling was really tired.
She raised her legs and was about to dismount, but Lu Yan hurriedly stepped forward to protect her when she saw this.
"The stirrups are solid, you can't hesitate to get off the horse, come!"
Lu Yan stretched out his hand to protect Rong Ling, who got up from the horse, and told her the essentials of dismounting.
Rong Ling has always been smart, and when he heard Lu Yan's words, he stepped down from the tall horse in three strokes.
Lu Yan saw that Rong Ling landed safely, so he finally put his mind at ease.
"I didn't expect this horse to be so tiring. But chasing the wind is really well-behaved, it's really hard to imagine what it looks like on the battlefield. β
Rong Ling said as he touched the mane of Chasing Wind.
has always been very xenophobic chasing the wind, but at this time, he didn't avoid Rong Ling's hand touching it, and even had some enjoyment on his expression, it seems that he and Rong Ling are very close to each other.
Lu Yan was very surprised to see this, but he thought about it, and it was also a good thing.
After all, after he left, he could rest assured that he would hand over Chasing Wind to Rong Ling.
It can be regarded as finding a favorite owner for it.
"It's not for everyone, it's only for people who like it. It seems that it really likes you. β
Lu Yan took the reins of chasing the wind and replied to Rong Ling.
"I like it too, and if it's convenient for the general, can you allow me to come and see it often?"
"The military camp is a military place, if the girl likes it, I will bring the chasing wind into the palace for the girl when I have time."
"Really? Can you enter the palace after chasing the wind? As soon as he heard that chasing the wind could enter the palace, Rong Ling's heart was extremely happy.
"It's just a horse, Your Majesty shouldn't stop it."
"It's amazing! That way, I can see it often. β
Rong Ling turned his head to look at Chasing Feng who was grazing with his head bowed to the side, his eyes were full of like.
And what about Lu Yan, who was standing on the side and watching her?
It's just that Rong Ling didn't see it.
"It's not too early, I'll ask Ling Fu to send the girl back to the palace."
Although Lu Yan was reluctant, there were palace rules, and Rong Ling was a girl's house, so he couldn't stay outside the palace for too long.
Even if Rong Ling didn't want to leave, it was almost time for the emperor's dinner.
Anyway, she had to hurry back to the imperial dining room.
Otherwise, once the masters can't see people because of problems with the dishes, then I'm afraid that other people will be affected.
So, Rong Ling sighed lightly, let go of the hand that was touching the wind, and replied to Lu Yan: "Okay, then when will you return to the palace?" β
"It's going to be a few days, and when I'm done with the barracks, I'll go back."
"Okay, then in that case, I'll take my leave first."
Rong Ling knew that Lu Yan didn't like etiquette, so this time she just nodded slightly to Lu Yan.
Lu Yan responded with a smile, and then walked out of the camp with her.
It wasn't until I watched her gradually walk away that I turned around and went back to the account.
However, he did not notice that a man was squatting in the woods outside the camp.
When the man saw Rong Ling walking away, he followed closely behind.
"Miss Rong, the camp is so far away from the city, it's very hard for you to come here, right?"
On the way back to the city, Ling Fu was embarrassed and Rong Ling had nothing to say.
Seeing the person he wanted to see, Rong Ling was in a happy mood.
Even with such an embarrassing topic, she still answered: "Compared with your perennial battles, I just walked a little more, which is not hard. β
"Harm, this city is already very good, when we were at the border before, it was bitter. You're like our general, often skipping meals for days. β
"Does he always skip eating?"
"Yes, it's not a book of war or a map, in short, I rarely think of eating. The last bowl of noodles you made was the most delicious I saw him eat. Not to mention, Miss Rong's craftsmanship is good. β
Here, Ling Fu was talking about things related to Lu Yan as he walked.
Although he doesn't know whether he intended it or not, Rong Ling, as a listener, has a heart.
She remembered Lu Yan's habit of not liking to eat, and remembered that he liked to eat the bamboo shoots and noodles she made.
At this time, Rong Ling was already secretly planning to wait for Lu Yan to return to the palace and make him some appetizers.
However, just as the two of them were walking back to the city together, suddenly, several masked men with knives sprang out from behind them.
Those people couldn't help but say, and rushed directly towards Rong Ling with knives.
Seeing this, Ling Fu also hurriedly pulled out the saber on his waist and fought with a few people.
Hearing the sound of ping-pong sword hilts colliding, Ling Fu was entangled with several masked men.
Ling Fu has been fighting all year round, and this kind of scene has long been commonplace for him.
But for Rong Ling, who experienced this kind of thing for the first time, although he was protected by Ling Fu as much as he could, he was still afraid and retreated frequently.
The swordsmanship she learned from Lu Yan could only be regarded as a superficial one, and at this time, it was simply a fist embroidered leg.
Therefore, she can only rely on her own dodge to dodge the masked man's attack.
Although Ling Fu tried his best to resist, he was also invincible with two fists and four hands, and he was soon exhausted.
Seeing this, Rong Ling was looking around for tools that could help.
But at this time, a masked man who was kicked behind Rong Ling by Ling Fu was already seriously injured.
But before he could do it, he suddenly got up.
I only heard him shout: "Take your life!" β
Immediately, he quickly picked up the knife on the ground and stabbed at Rong Ling.
"Ahh
Just as Rong Ling quickly retreated, trying to dodge the knife, a familiar figure fell from the sky, holding a long sword and swinging, and the masked man's knife flew out into the sky in an instant.
"Are you alright?"
Before Rong Ling could react, Lu Yan had already protected her in his arms.
At this moment, Rong Ling looked at Lu Yan's handsome face, couldn't hold back the fear in his heart anymore, and hugged him tightly.
"It's okay, with me, no one can hurt you."
Lu Yan patted Rong Ling's back and comforted her in shock.
But just when he was distracted, suddenly, the masked man slashed directly with a knife.
This knife directly injured Lu Yan's shoulder, and he staggered forward a few steps in pain.
Then, with a sword in his hand, the man was killed instantly.
"Lingfu! Protect Miss Rong! β
"Yes, General!"
Lu Yan didn't have time to care about his injury, and after handing over Rong Ling to Ling Fu, he flew into the air, and with three efforts, he solved several masked men on the ground.
Seeing that the sky was getting darker, this sudden killer made Lu Yan have an ominous premonition.
For the safety of Rong Ling, Lu Yan decided to wait until dawn tomorrow to send Rong Ling back to the palace.
"Ling Fu, you go back to the palace and report a message to the emperor, just say that Miss Rong met an assassin by chance, and I rescued her and brought her back to the camp."
"Yes, General."
When Ling Fu received the order, he immediately marched quickly to the city.
But at this moment, Rong Ling's gaze at Lu Yan was full of distress...
