The scorching sun was scorching, and a group of people wearing red official uniforms were marching slowly on the official road.

There were about 20 people in the group, and there were two carriages pulling behind them.

"Stop, all stop and rest in the woods."

Walking into a wood, Xu Xiang gasped and ordered.

He jumped off his horse, hid in the shade of a large tree, picked up a water bladder, and drank it in a big gulp to quench his thirst.

In the past few days, the farther south we went, the hotter the weather became, the horses were too tired to walk, and the team stopped and stopped, and the speed was slow.

Xu Xiang originally wanted to change horses in the post houses along the way, but he didn't expect that the southern mansion of Yan Kingdom was so short of horses that he couldn't buy one with money.

It is also possible that the people in the post house saw that they were from Yongguo, so they did not sell them to him.

"What a bad luck! When Benhou returned to Yedu, he must ask the Holy Lord to send iron cavalry to attack Yan Kingdom. He spat and said hatefully.

This time he went to Yan Guo, there was nothing that made him feel comfortable, the emperor of Yan was extremely difficult, the accompanying officials were his political enemies, there was no maid by his side, and even the Yan Guo palace maid who he saw was protected, so he couldn't start.

He couldn't wait to return to Yongguo immediately and find someone in his house to vent.

Suddenly, his face changed, and his ears were pressed against the trunk of a tree behind him.

"No, someone!" He felt the slight vibration of the trunk of the tree, immediately collected the water bladder, and jerked back to see where the team had come from.

"Master Hou, what's wrong?" A Yongguo guard beside him asked suspiciously.

The next moment, Xu Xiang grabbed his big hand, held his body tightly, and dragged him in front of him!

"Whoosh-"

Countless sharp arrows came at him, and the guards didn't even have time to scream, they were already pierced into a sieve!

"There are enemies, quickly, quickly protect your lords, protect Lord Hou!"

The guards shouted as they raised their shields.

Although the number of guards of the Yongguo mission is small, all of them are good at the border army, and they are full of condensation, and along the way, there are basically no bandits and thieves who dare to take the initiative to provoke, which also makes them relax their vigilance.

"Oh no, I forgot that this is close to Jincheng, and Zhao Di is very chaotic." Xu Xiang muttered with a gloomy face.

After a rain of arrows, the Yongguo people were injured a lot, and the masked Zhang Xiaonian fell from the sky, and his voice was cold: "Use your own subordinates as shields, you Yongguo people are really vicious." ”

Xu Xiang's face froze, put down the bloodied guard in his hand, and stared at him: "Ben Hou felt that something was wrong all the way, and sure enough, someone ...... Follow all the way, dare to rob Benhou's team, I really don't know whether to live or die! ”

Zhang Xiaonian raised his hand, and behind him, dozens of ...... who were wearing raging clothes poured out

"Bandits?" A Yongjun said, "You Zhao Di bandits are so bold and dare to provoke our Dayong!" ”

Xu Xiang stared at Zhang Xiaonian's face wearing a mask, he felt that this person was somewhat familiar, and the voice seemed to have been heard somewhere.

Could it be the Yongguo people? Xu Xiang looked at the three civil officials of Yongguo who were hiding on the side of the carriage and were holding their heads trembling at the moment, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes.

"Leave this person," Zhang Xiaonian raised his hand, pointed at Xu Xiang, paused, thinking that they were pretending to be bandits after all, and added, "and property, otherwise, don't blame us for killing." ”

"You're dreaming—"

The soldiers of the Yongjun army still wanted to say a cruel word, but Zhang Xiaonian had already pulled out the short knife on his waist and turned into a black shadow and rushed over.

Although the two sides were equal in numbers and strength, in addition to Xu Xiang in the Yongguo envoys, there were also three civil officials who could not do martial arts, and the Yongjun guards wanted to protect them, and they were soon defeated and retreated.

"Zheng!"

The short knife slashed through a silver light, Xu Xiang raised the big knife to resist, and the weapons collided, making a clanging sound.

Zhang Xiaonian moved his slightly numb tiger mouth, sneered, took out another short knife, and rushed forward again.

Seeing him use his double blades, Xu Xiang's eyes suddenly widened, and finally remembered the true identity of the person in front of him, and shouted: "No, you are not bandits, you are-"

Zhang Xiaonian interrupted him: "You are wrong. ”

Xu Xiang roared, repelled Zhang Xiaonian with a knife, flicked his wide sleeves, and a few runes floated out: "If you want to kill Lao Tzu, you are still tender!" ”

Zhang Xiaonian saw the yellow rune paper that pounced on him, and remembered that he had wanted to use it to stun the pillow snow, and immediately held his breath.

And Xu Xiang took the opportunity to turn over and shouted: "Brothers, you support it, Ben Hou will go to Jinzhou City to find Zhao people for support!" ”

Since the Yan people are here to exterminate their mouths, why should he continue to fight with them. The three civil officials who were sent this time, he had long been displeasing to his eyes, so he just took this opportunity to get rid of them!

When the guards of Yongguo, who were fighting bloodily, heard this, they almost wanted to vomit blood, and they also wanted to run, but their horses were tired for a day, and only Dingyuanhou's horse was good and could still ride away.

Zhang Xiaonian brushed off the rune paper, squinted one eye, aimed at Xu Xiao who was sitting on horseback, exerted force on his wrist, and a cold light swept by.

Xu Xiang snorted, and the flying knife hit him in the back, but he didn't stop at all, and escaped from the forest like a puff of smoke.

The two armies fought without slashing, and the people of Yan dared to do such an act, it was really crazy!

Zhang Xiaonian looked at Xu Xiang's back and didn't let people chase him.

It wasn't until Xu Xiang completely disappeared that he retracted his gaze, looked at the scene of the scuffle in front of him, and said loudly: "The people of our village, as long as they have money, they will not hurt their lives, so that a few adults are frightened, we will leave immediately after taking the money." ”

The only person he wants to kill is Xu Xiang, and now that Xu Xiang has run away, it will not be possible to fight to the death for these people.

"Take, quick, quickly take out all our silver and give it to these heroes!" The three civil officials hugged each other, and the slightly bolder one commanded submissively.

Seeing the civil official's words, the guards stopped, and after handing over the silver, they supported each other and rushed in the direction of Jincheng.

I don't know how long later, a civil official of Yongguo poked his head out of the carriage and saw the city wall in the distance: "In front is Jincheng, Zhao Guo is our Dayong subordinate, and it will be safe when you arrive." ”

Another person complained: "The Marquis of Qingyuan is really cowardly and afraid, he dares to abandon us and run away, and when the official returns to Yedu, he must be with the saint to visit him!" ”

"Yes, he threw us to the bandits, and this is not over-"

Before they could finish speaking, countless sharp arrows shot out from behind them.

This time, the arrows were several times denser than the previous group of "bandits", and immediately, a team of black cavalry appeared from both sides of the road, and with knives in their hands, they hacked a Yongguo guard to death!

One after another screams rang out, and a moment later, the Yongguo envoys had all fallen in a pool of blood.

"Your Highness commanded, leave no mouth alive, check it." The black knight at the head said, his voice slightly distorted.

A strand of red hair leaked from under his black turban.

At this time, Xu Xiang was desperately slapping the horse's belly, he couldn't help but touch his back, pulled out the flying knife that Zhang Xiaonian stabbed into, and stabbed the horse with his backhand.

The horses neighed and ran faster.

As the sun sets, the surroundings become cooler.

Xu Xiang didn't see a single pursuer, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He dismounted, his face was pale, but the corners of his mouth were smug and sneering: "Do you think Ben Hou will go to Jinzhou City, hehe, Ben Hou just went back." ”

When he fled, he deliberately shouted that he was going to Zhaodi to move rescue soldiers, just to confuse Zhang Xiaonian, and when they cleaned up the others and then chased him, he had already made a detour back to Yongguo.

Xu Xiang couldn't help but be impressed by his plan, he saw a village standing at the end of the road, and led the horse to walk slowly.

"I will be here for one night, and tomorrow I will take a detour to return to Yong...... Today's shame, Princess Yongning, Yan Guo, you wait for Benhou! This revenge will be avenged! ”

"Don't wait, now, you can report."

A quiet voice sounded, Xu Xiao was horrified, and saw that Yu Bing was already holding a soft sword, and he was unstoppably stabbing at him.

"It's you!" He recognized this blue-eyed woman as the martial maid of the princess of Yan Kingdom.

Xu Xiang hurriedly turned around, but was blocked by a man holding a long sword and a resolute and cold face.

On the side of the road, a group of cavalrymen dressed in tatters but armed with long knives of ordnance suddenly appeared.

The leader is a young man with thick eyebrows and a somewhat familiar look.

He slashed at Xu Xiang with a knife, and his tone was surprised and admired:

"Little Brother Chu, how did you calculate that he would take this path!?"

Chu Yi and Zhuxue stood far away, heard Geng Chuan's words, and replied: "That's it, and then it's calculated." ”

"Little brother is so smart!"

Pillow Snow: "......"

Chu Yi looked at them and said softly: "What's it, it's even more desperate to make him think that he can live, and then catch him." ”

Three drinks of ice can capture Xu Xiang alive, this is what Xiao Yan told her.

And now, Xu Xiang is injured, drinking ice, April and Geng Chuan are just three people, and there are so many Yulin troops!

It didn't take long for Xu Xiang to be unable to resist the siege of the three, and he was stabbed in the shoulder by drinking ice, vomiting blood and falling to the ground.

"Chu Yi!?"

Xu Xiang raised his head and looked at Chu Yi's figure, his face pale.

He never thought that the princess of Yanguo, who was far away in Shangjing, would actually appear here.

"Ahh

Geng Chuan started without mercy, slashing his hamstrings with a knife, forcing him to scream and kneel on the ground.

After a while, Xu Xiang, who had lost his ability to resist, was tied up in front of Chu Yi.

"You...... You can't kill Ben Hou," Xu Xiang's eyes were bloodshot, and he roared intermittently, "You can't, I'm the Marquis of Qingyuan of Yongguo, and the two armies won't kill me!" ”

The more he spoke, the more excited he became, his eyes widened, as if he was crazy: "You don't dare to kill me, Chu Yi, you don't dare!" It's a state affair, you little princess, you don't-"

Chu Yi took the short sword that April wiped clean, and stabbed it into Xu Xiang's heart.

"What the Marquis of Qingyuan just said, the palace didn't hear it clearly." She said.
