Chapter 534 At a critical moment, escape through a secret passage

"Let's go!"

Pulling Ming Ruo to run wildly in the backyard, Xi Qingyan frowned, and according to the route in his memory, he quickly found the Queen Mother and the Medicine King.

"Quick, go to the front yard to meet the Emperor Taishang, try to reduce the target, and accumulate strength." She couldn't confirm whether these people were the same group of bandits as the previous ones, but it seemed that they were all well-trained and well-organized, and they came prepared at a glance.

Only a few people knew about her leaving the palace, and unless there was a traitor in the secret guard, no one would be secretly ambushed.

As for the Emperor Taishang and the Queen Mother, almost no one knows the news of their entry into Beijing, so these people are most likely related to the previous mountain bandits.

"Be careful."

A scorching temperature immediately crossed his ears, and Xi Qingyan only felt a hot pain on the side of his face, and when he looked back, a strand of hair was burned and fell to the ground.

She pulled Mingruo to her side with her backhand, looked at the frightened girl, and patted the back of her hand soothingly.

"Master, meet in the front yard, retreat."

The situation was critical, and they couldn't afford to waste time here, Xi Qingyan took a deep breath, held the Queen Mother with one hand, and pulled Ming Ruo with the other, and under the protection of everyone, he fought and retreated.

"Bang."

"Whoosh."

The sound of explosions, arrows, and the sound of blade handover, Xi Qingyan looked calm, with a calm indifference on her body, she protected the Queen Mother on the one hand, and pulled Ming Ruo with the other, but also to prevent the Medicine King from falling behind, for a while, she hated not having the ability to be a clone.

"Be careful." The silver needle pinched on the fingertips suddenly shot out, Xi Qingyan turned sideways and blocked in front of Ming Ruo with half a step, and then pulled the girl to the corner of the wall to dodge, but after a few breaths, a group of arrows and crossbows with flames immediately appeared at the feet of the two.

Damn, how could there be so many people.

Although Yun Fei left most of the manpower to her before leaving, they were originally passive defense, coupled with the fact that the moon was dark and the wind was high, these people came prepared and took the lead in using fire attacks, so they fell into disadvantage with some of them without noticing it for a while.

If this continues, sooner or later their side will lose.

With a hint of anxiety in his heart, Xi Qingyan thought about it, and immediately took out a few dark medicine bottles from his sleeve, which contained poison that sealed his throat with blood.

"Sprinkle these on the ground as you retreat, and if they are not afraid of death, they will chase them." If it weren't for the fear that things would change, Xi Qingyan would have chosen to make a quick decision.

Since these people are friends and foes, she doesn't have to endure anything.

"Yes, my subordinates will do it." The people who followed the woman to protect were the most loyal secret guards around Su Lixiao, and they obeyed Xi Qingyan's words, and immediately separated a few people from the team and quietly carried out the woman's plan.

"Let's go." Seeing that more and more people are entering the mansion, they still need to join the Emperor as soon as possible, and now integrate their forces to fight against it.

Looking at the out of breath Queen Mother, Xi Qingyan's eyes flashed a trace of worry, but the latter seemed to know what she was thinking, and slapped the back of her hand with difficulty.

"Don't worry, I'm fine." At the critical moment, the chain can't be dropped, their family is finally reunited, no matter what, she has to watch her dream of leaving the sky to complete her life.

"The old man is fine, the old man exercises all year round, and this quality is not necessarily stronger or weaker than your young age." As if trying to break the heavy atmosphere, the Medicine King smiled and compared his fists.

It was his gag action that pressed the big stone in everyone's hearts and suddenly lightened a lot.

"Chase, stop them, and never let them run." Their attackers were a group of men in black, all armed with long knives, who looked like they were not weak, and their faces were covered with veils, making it impossible to see who they were.

However, judging from the martial arts moves they accidentally revealed, these people are from the same military as the previous mountain bandits, but I don't know if it is related to the country.

"Keep walking, don't stop." Settled down, Xi Qingyan pulled everyone to open the way of escape again, this time, maybe it was the medicinal powder she distributed that played a role, although the pursuers were clinging to them tightly, but the number was higher than before,

Quite a little less.

In this way, the pressure on their bodies is drastically reduced, and protecting their safety can also take time to deal with a few small bugs.

In this way, everyone fought all the way and retreated, and finally came to the Changsong Courtyard where the Emperor Taishang was located.

"Ah, are you alright?" The elegant layout of the Changsong Temple was also attacked, and the rockery trees inside were all riddled with arrows, and even half of the houses were burned down.

Seeing that Xi Qingyan and the others appeared safely, the Emperor Taishang finally breathed a sigh of relief, not that he didn't want to send people forward, but that these people desperately stopped them, so he thought of the extremely hungry mad dog, once the prey is locked, if there is no gain, he will never let go.

"We're fine, it's just that the guards who protect us have lost a lot, and we don't know what happened to them." At the critical juncture, the Queen Mother had no intention of arguing with the Emperor Taishang, so although she didn't want to pay attention to him very much, she still whispered.

"Juan, you ......"

Who knows, this is the first time since the emperor saw the queen mother, the latter spoke to him calmly, in the past, he was either cynical or completely ignored, and it was the first time that he was treated like this.

If the situation does not allow it, the Emperor Taishang will definitely hug himself and cry.

Whether he can be regarded as keeping the clouds open and seeing the moon, the Queen Mother has cold and hard ice in her heart, and one day, she will be melted by him.

"Okay, okay, you're okay, come with me." This small courtyard has been prepared for a long time, not only is the location hidden, but the facilities in it are also very complete, which includes emergency escape routes.

Commonly known as the secret passage!

"Take out all the gunpowder, and wait for an order to let these people die without a place to bury."

There was a trace of coldness between his eyebrows and eyes, and the Emperor Taishang's eyes were cold, and he shot an arrow with a bow, and immediately shot down the man in black who was trying to climb over the wall.

"Let's go."

The people they have cultivated will never give up their partners in a crisis again, if they are able to move and live, they must have all gathered here at this moment, and as for those who are in distress, they can only wait for the matter to come to an end and send people back to find the body.

His legs subconsciously followed behind the Emperor Taishang, Xi Qingyan never expected that Su Lixiao would be so thoughtful, and even the secret passage was ready.

She thought that this place was just a hidden place outside the city, but she didn't expect that this place was actually one of the back roads that Su Lixiao had prepared for herself.

This man has always taken one step at a time to see a hundred steps, when he let the Queen Mother and others live in, did he think of today's events.

But how did these men in black find here?

Could it be that she inadvertently led the way?

With a faint suspicion in the depths of his eyes, Xi Qingyan unconsciously pinched his sleeve and put it on the tip of his nose to sniff, and after not finding any strange taste, he temporarily suppressed the matter in his heart.

"Bang."

Pushing open the door of the study, the Emperor Taishang came to the Duobao Pavilion without squinting, he turned one of the antique vases, only to hear a "click" sound, the originally tightly knit wall, suddenly cracked a large hole in the middle.

A dark passage was revealed.

"Leave here first, and when we retreat, light the gunpowder and blow it up." Although he didn't know who those people were, he would definitely try his best to find out after this incident.

He abdicated, not died, and if he wanted him to die, how could he do it without paying a little price.

opened his mouth and let Xi Qingyan and the others enter the secret passage first, looking at the scorching battle situation outside, the Emperor Taishang said something in the ear of the secret guard, and then he also entered the secret passage as if he was burning his buttocks.

After the masters left, the desperate guards outside immediately narrowed the battle circle, and then were completely besieged in the Changsong Courtyard.

"Listen, those inside, as long as you don't make a fearless act of resistance, our boss will promise to spare your life, or you will be beheaded by the same sword as those guards."

"My master said that if you want us to come out, you can show your sincerity first and let those injured guards in."

What kind of strange request is this? To these remnants

What is foot shrimp used for?

The messenger relayed this to the boss of the man in black, who scratched his head in confusion and suddenly slapped the messenger on the head.

"Let you be clever and drop the chain at this time, and tell them that as long as they are obedient, whatever they ask, we will do it."

So, is this person to pay or not to pay?

"Look at what I do, don't forget that the master wants the queen mother who is unscathed, if they are damaged, how many lives will your boy have enough to pay."

Aggrieved, this battle was fought aggrieved, obviously they have a lot of manpower, but they can't make a move because of the order, and I don't know why the master will never forget the queen of the country.

Obviously, she is married to ***, and even gave birth to three children.

It's puzzling.

In a daze, I don't know why, the messenger touched the back of the beaten head, didn't dare to play any tricks, and immediately tied up the previously captured person and took him to the outside of Changsong Courtyard.

"Listen, the people inside, we have fulfilled your request, immediately ask your master to come out and claim it, otherwise don't blame us for being ruthless."

This joy is just a turtle in an urn, and no matter how much they struggle, it will fall into their hands, and now it will make them uneasy for a while.

"You let people in first, my master said, you have to inspect the goods first, if you dare to play tricks, we will fight to the end of the net, and we will not hesitate!"

It's really as the Emperor Taishang said, it's just a group of fools with scruples.

His excuses are so clumsy that they can even be easily punctured, but these people are like blind people, and they ignore the weirdness in them, so that people don't know what to say.

The forehead slowly slid down three black lines, and seeing that the people outside sent people in as agreed, the man quickly made a few gestures, and everyone immediately retreated towards the secret passage.

Just as the Secret Passage was about to close, a torch flew out of the room.

Immediately afterwards, gunpowder placed in the corner of the wall was ignited......
