Chapter 445: Separate Heads
Li Qingyi was worried about the injury of the county lord of Yuanheng, "I don't know how long my mother can last."
Qin Zeng said: "The other party's target must be you and me, Changning Chang Yan took a few guards to escort the county lord of Yuanheng to the direction of the capital, and he should not be hindered."
If everyone walks together, it is likely to encounter an ambush together, and the injury of the county lord of Yuanheng will be delayed, and everyone will take care of the life of the county lord of Yuanheng, and they will also be restrained. simply let people take the county lord of Yuanheng to go first, and the other party will definitely not disperse his forces to deal with an inconsequential county lord of Yuanheng in order to kill Qin Zeng and Li Qingyi with one blow.
Li Qingyi nodded: "Okay, you take your mother first!"
Changning Chang Yan glanced at Li Qingyi, and immediately divided into two ways with their soldiers, beating horses and galloping in the direction of the capital!
Li Qingyi looked at Qin Zeng and said, "The Great Pudu Temple and the road away from the capital are full of wilderness and lush forests, there must be an ambush ahead, how can we get out?"
There is an ambush in front and a chasing army in the back, and if there are two more waves of offensive like that, they are afraid that they will be finished.
Qin Zeng immediately decided, "Everyone should go separately to avoid head-on conflicts, if you can find out the enemy's arrangement, it is best to break them one by one, if not, you can ensure your own safety."
Scattered, the other side cannot deal with everyone at the same time, it is impossible to annihilate them all.
If the other party concentrates manpower to pursue Qin Zeng and Li Qingyi, the others can turn from light to darkness, turn passive into active, and wait for an opportunity to respond.
Chang Ze carried out the decision made by Qin Zeng without hesitation, and with a wave of his hand, all the Dongchang guards immediately scattered, and disappeared into the surrounding mountains and forests in a moment.
Nagasawa said, "My lord, my subordinates will follow you, right?"
Qin Zeng shook his head, "Save your life first, and then find a way to come back to support."
Chang Ze didn't drag the mud and water, he arched his hand towards Qin Zeng, and separated from them and went in the other direction.
The last rays of the setting sun also faded into the distant mountains, and the sky darkened, and the mountains and forests were darker than the rest of the world.
Li Qingyi followed Qin Zeng and ran forward, although she picked a horse at random, but the horses in Dongchang were all good horses, not much inferior to Qin Zeng's horses. It's just that it's inconvenient to run horses in the mountains and forests, and they can't play to their strengths.
However, hiding in the mountains and forests, the effect of arrows will also be weakened.
Most of the rain of arrows like Fang Cai's will be blocked by trees.
With a chance to breathe, Li Qingyi couldn't help but wonder who was going to kill them.
Someone pretended to be a spirit rune and handed over the brocade box containing the hidden weapon to the county lord of Yuanheng.
If she and the county lord of Yuanheng shared a carriage back according to the time they came, then their mother and daughter would definitely be cold now.
Therefore, the person targeted by the secret weapon is her, not Qin Zeng.
But after the hidden weapon was launched, Qin Zeng jumped out of the carriage with her, and someone with a bow and crossbow attacked them indiscriminately, and Qin Zeng was also within the range of killing.
Li Qingyi hissed.
If the person who placed the hidden weapon was going to kill Qin Zeng from the beginning, then the hidden weapon should find a way to send it to Qin Zeng, kill Qin Zeng first, and she would naturally not be able to escape.
So, sneak attacks with hidden weapons, and ambushes to kill people, isn't it a wave of people?
Those who carried the repeater knew that someone was going to kill her with a secret weapon, so they counted the tricks to pick up the leaks?
Just thinking about it, a ball of fire suddenly shot out behind him, and it swept past Li Qingyi's ears and headed towards Qin Zeng in front of him.
Li Qingyi subconsciously exclaimed, "Be careful!"
Her voice was still on the tip of her tongue, Qin Zeng had already reacted, turning his body to the side of the horse, and the arrow with the fire grazed a person and a horse, and nailed it to a tree next to it!
The pine trees are covered with pine resin, and the fire burns at the sight of the fire, and the rising light of the fire illuminates the dim woods.
"Let's go!"
The two of them did not pause at all, urging the horses to speed past the burning tree, only to hear someone behind them shouting: "Two of you in front, be sure to kill!"
Sou!
Whoosh!
There are constantly cold arrows
Shooting towards Li Qingyi and Qin Zeng hurriedly, but it was far from the momentum of the previous rain of crossbow arrows, and in the dimly lit forest, it was even more difficult to aim, almost equal to blind shooting.
The two of them quickly got out of the woods, but there was a cliff in front of them, and they had no choice but to turn around and turn to the hillside in front.
The bushes underfooted the two horses slowed down, and without trees for cover, the pursuers behind them were getting closer and closer.
Qin Zeng pointed to a forest overgrown with trees in front of him and motioned for Li Qingyi to run there.
Li Qingyi was about to nod, when he suddenly heard a neighing of the horse under him, stumbled under his feet, and the whole horse fell forward.
Its hind legs were pierced by arrows and it fell to the ground.
Li Qingyi's inertia caused him to pounce on the strength of the horse's fall, and when he saw that he was about to fall into the thorn bushes all over the ground, he felt that his waist was light, and his body was hugged in mid-air, and she was forcibly scooped up from the thorns.
She looked back at the horses that fell in the thorns and screamed, her heart jumped to her throat, and she subconsciously looked up to look at Qin Zeng who was protecting her in her arms, but she saw that his eyes were still focused and resolute in the pursuit of the enemy under the dim sky, always staring ahead, with the determination to escape safely.
The panic in Li Qingyi's heart slowly subsided, and his gaze gradually calmed down.
Qin Zeng's horse was named Lei Shou, extremely fierce, knowing that his master was in danger, he used all his strength more and more, and led the two of them to attack at high speed, gradually escaping from the range of the pursuers.
The shouts of killing faded away, and the night grew darker, enveloping the entire woods, and casting shadows of longing.
Lei Shou finally lost his strength and gradually slowed down.
There was silence all around.
Li Qingyi felt that the strength surrounding him behind him was gradually lost, and the strength leaning on her became heavier and heavier, and he felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly called him softly: "My lord?"
Qin Zeng didn't answer, just pillowed his head on her shoulder, and the sound of heavy breathing sprayed on her neck.
Li Qingyi chuckled in his heart, "My lord, are you injured? Hit by an arrow?"
The people behind him still didn't make a single movement.
She twisted hard to support his body, and looked up at his face, but her hands felt wet and warm.
Blood.
Definitely blood.
Only then did Qin Zeng reluctantly speak, "Qingqing, the next road depends on you."
Li Qingyi helped his fallen body, looking at the dark mountains and forests in front of him, a little dazed at what to do.
She didn't know what place this was, she didn't know which direction it was safe to go, and she didn't dare to make a voice to contact the people in Dongchang.
There is no way forward, there are pursuers behind, and his only reliance has fallen.
She held back the fear and panic in her heart, and forced herself to calm down, "Good ......"
