Chapter 196: Meeting on a Narrow Road
Shangguan Li was stunned for a moment, and then he smelled a faint smell from the wrist in front of him that couldn't be covered by a little blood, as if it was covered with a layer of light fresh snow.
Xuanyuan Ye himself didn't seem to expect to meet her in this place, and stayed longer than her. Those dark eyes were like the abyss of the deep sea, looking at her without blinking.
"Lord Wang."
Shangguan Li frowned, instinctively feeling that something was wrong with his current state. The feeling of danger crept up her spine and almost blew her up.
"Whoa—"
The sound of breaking the sky sounded, Xuanyuan Ye moved, one of his hands was held by Shangguan Li with two arms, so he had to raise his head and gently block it with his left hand, breaking the cold arrow that flew from nowhere.
He blinked, and a familiar smile appeared under his eyes again.
"I haven't seen you for a long time, you just used this method when you first met?"
He shook his hand that was being held, and he wasn't so annoyed.
Shangguan Li took a deep look at him, let go of his hand, and said coldly.
"I only saw it yesterday."
From her to Nameless Village, and back here, it was only a matter of one day.
"These people are here to kill you?"
She looked down the hill, and at the moment she could still see the trees shaking, presumably somewhere there was still fighting. Just by the tragic scene on the top of the mountain, she could roughly imagine how spectacular the situation was.
Xuanyuan Ye raised his hand, wanting to touch Shangguan Li's head, but because his hands were now full of blood, he smiled lightly when he heard this.
"Half, and some are against the county lord."
"Oh."
Shangguan Li nodded nonchalantly.
"Then I have to thank you for helping me get in such a big trouble, right?"
There was a lot of disbelief in his tone.
Even if Feng Sichen hated her to the core, he would not arrange a whole mountain of people to kill her like this.
Before Xuanyuan Ye said that her destination was also here, she vaguely guessed that he was the target of these people. After such a long time of arrangement, it is just to kill her, the third lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion who has just shown her edge in the capital.
Feng Sichen didn't believe it himself.
The two stood at the top of the hill for a while, neither of them spoke. The movement under the mountain gradually stopped, and the night gradually became thicker, which was not simply the darkness of the night, but a sign of the coming storm.
The premonition of danger in Shangguan Li's heart has not disappeared.
She always felt that the scene in front of her was strange, but she was sure that she had never seen the mountain.
Xuanyuan Ye suddenly stepped forward and stopped in front of the torch, his voice a little solemn.
"County Lord, do you think that in the legend of the Green Fox Gang, the scene when Arowa was finally destroyed is somewhat similar to now?"
Shangguan Li was startled, and finally understood where that strange sense of familiarity came from.
In that legend, the blood flowed so much that the priests knelt down in the Temple of Heaven, the wind howled, and the mountains rained, and all living beings died in the rain.
It's just like that, except that it hasn't rained yet, it's exactly the same!
Shangguan Li looked at a kneeling corpse in the center of the altar and asked.
"He's ......"
"It has nothing to do with me, he suddenly barged in when I was with Lihuo."
Xuanyuan Ye's tone was relaxed, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.
"Lihuo killed him by mistake. But now it seems that it should have been deliberate. ”
She didn't care who the Lihuo was for the time being, and quickened her speech.
"Whatever happens here, we'd better get out of here quickly."
Before she could finish her sentence, Xuanyuan Ye had already taken out an arrow-like thing from her sleeve, and with a slight pull, Bai Hong cut through the night sky, dispelling the gloom for a moment.
Shaoguang, who was cleaning up the remnants of Lan You's sins on the mountainside, raised his head, and his clear eyes showed a trace of doubt.
"Retreat?"
"What are you doing?"
A soft female voice called out to him, the voice of the man was a woman, a man in a dress and a face in that body, but a sturdy man.
Shake Light took a step back in disgust.
"Voice, get it back."
The man was stunned for a moment, and was directly laughed at angrily.
"Don't say you don't understand what that means, get out!"
This time he used a male voice.
"The prince is still ......"
"You want to see Yuheng again, right?"
The man then continued.
"The prince's martial arts are not comparable to us, he has been on the battlefield for many years, and he has only been back for half a year, have you forgotten to prohibit it?"
These words shook the death hole in the middle, and he didn't say any more, leaned down, and retreated down the mountain with the man.
At the top of the mountain, Xuanyuan Ye put away the arrow feathers and turned around.
"We have to go too......"
He paused, because he found Shangguan Li squatting on the edge of the cliff, as if he was looking at something.
"I've found a problem."
Xuanyuan Ye was almost shocked by this woman's fearless spirit, at this time, she could still sell Guanzi, not to mention anything else, at least first-class mentality.
Shangguan Li also knew that time was pressing, and said quickly.
"The blood hasn't clotted yet."
Xuanyuan Ye just wanted to say what was this, but suddenly stopped when he caught a glimpse of the blood line that was still flowing slowly under his feet.
"This is the top of the mountain."
She said leisurely.
Although whether the blood clots or not is not greatly affected by temperature, it is unlikely that it can still flow around alive and kick out of the human body for so long.
And if you look closely, you will see that the blood is all left in the totem around the stone slab, as if some pattern is being outlined.
It's hard to say exactly what will happen then, but it's really not wise to stay any longer.
Shangguan Li's heartbeat increased slightly, of course it wasn't that she had any thoughts about this blood, it was a kind of inability to face danger.
To put it simply, it is to actively strengthen the secretion of adrenaline to achieve the purpose of further improving physical fitness.
Xuanyuan Ye only glanced at the situation on the ground, his face changed, and he immediately took Shangguan Li's hand and ran down the mountain.
"Let's go first."
But there was a faint premonition in his heart that it was not so good, if the situation in front of him was really Lan You's purpose, would they let him leave so easily?
The answer, of course, is: no.
Just as they were about to step out of the circular stone platform, dozens of black-clothed people suddenly appeared on the edge of the cliff. They seemed to have learned a special method of holding their breath, and on the top of this mountain full of bloody qi, Shangguan Li and Xuanyuan Ye did not find out for the first time.
As soon as the man in black appeared, he pounced on the two of them without saying a word.
They used a deadly fighting style, and the fundamental purpose was just to drag down Xuanyuan Ye and Shangguan Li's actions, and they used themselves as stones to stop their steps.
Shangguan Li parried several black-clothed people who didn't want to hit her silver needle, and complained in her heart, Xuanyuan Ye didn't dig someone's ancestral grave, right?
