When Li Yi and Mu Junhe dragged their wet bodies to the other side of the mirror lake, Lu Hua and the soldiers of the city guard battalion had only run half of the total distance.

However, considering that the other party was on horseback, Li Yi and Mu Junhe discussed it for a while, or observed the direction, and then plunged into the dense forest in the mountains.

Soon, Lu Hua and the others rode their horses to the place where Li Yi and Mu Junhe had landed just now.

"General, we just surveyed those two people, and they should have entered the forest in the mountains at this time." A soldier from the city guard battalion reported.

"All dismount and immediately pursue the two!" Lu Hua jumped off the horse first, and then followed the footprints left by Li Yi and Mu Junhe, and plunged into the dense forest.

Although it is late autumn and the original lush color of the mountains has begun to turn yellow, the leaves on the trees have not completely fallen off.

A large number of yellow leaves shade the entire dense forest a little mottled, and there is always a solemn atmosphere when people walk on the yellow leaves all over the ground.

At this time, Li Yi and Mu Junhe quickly took off their clothes and wrung them out as much as possible after entering the dense forest, and then the two sat on the edge of a big tree shirtless.

"Senior brother, according to the speed of the other party, we should be able to catch up with us very quickly, and now if we don't hurry up, we are likely to be surrounded by them." Mu Junhe didn't understand why Li Yi wanted to stay where he was, so he reminded.

"Senior brother, how long do you think we can sneak through the dense forest like this to reach Zhiqing Ferry?"

"Senior brother, do you mean that you want to ······?" In an instant, Mu Junhe understood what Li Yi meant.

"That's right, senior brother, let's not talk about whether we can sneak to Zhiqing Ferry safely, even if we can reach it smoothly, will we lead the people of Anzhou Prefecture City to Zhiqing Ferry?" Li Yi raised his head and looked at the sunlight shining through the gaps in the leaves, and said lightly.

"But there are at least dozens of people in the entire forest now, and it's probably not so easy for us to sneak back unnoticed!" At this time, Mu Junhe had already determined that Li Yi was planning to sneak back, and then go to snatch the horses of the Anzhou City Guard Camp.

In fact, Li Yi had this plan from the beginning, so he and Mu Junhe went into the dense forest as soon as possible, in order to lure the soldiers of the Anzhou City Guard Battalion into this dense forest.

Then they would have to dismount, and even if someone would be left to watch the horses, there would not be too many of them.

"Senior brother, don't worry, I've already thought about this." Then Li Yi couldn't help but smile slightly, and then pointed in the direction not far away.

Mu Junhe looked in the direction of his finger and found that there was a wild boar leaning against a tree foraging not far from this dense forest.

"Senior brother, what are you going to do here?" Mu Junhe already felt that his thinking was completely inferior to him at this time.

"Senior brother, you are optimistic." After speaking, Li Yi slowly touched the direction of the wild boar with Dingfeng Bo in his hand, and in a short time, he was already less than ten meters away from the wild boar.

At this time, the wild boar that was foraging for food seemed to sense the danger, and couldn't help but raise its head and look around.

However, just when he was still looking at it vigilantly, Li Yi had already rushed towards the wild boar with a brisk step. The wild boar was also startled by Li Yi's action at first, but then the wild boar did not flee directly, but spewed hot air in its mouth and crashed in Li Yi's direction.

Li Yi was not surprised when he saw this, but he dodged the attack of the wild boar with one dodge, and then fell on the wild boar's body at once.

But this wild boar was not pressed by Li Yi due to its huge size.

"Senior brother, come over and help!" Li Yi immediately shouted at Mu Junhe. Although Mu Junhe didn't understand what Li Yi was going to do, he saw that Li Yi was about to be unable to suppress the wild boar, so he immediately stepped forward to help.

Soon the boar was pressed. As soon as he pressed the boar, he immediately trapped the boar's mouth with a cloth bag.

"Take off your shoes!" Then Li Yi took off his shoes and instructed Mu Junhe.

"Senior brother, do you want to tie our shoes to the feet of this wild boar and let it attract the attention of those people in Anzhou instead of us?" For this idea of his junior brother, Mu Junhe felt very whimsical.

"That's right, senior brother, hurry up." Li Yi said as he tied his shoes to the wild boar's legs with strips of cloth.

"But the pace of the wild boar is so small, although it will leave footprints, but as long as the soldiers of the city guard battalion in Anzhou Prefecture City are not stupid, they will definitely find out that they are tired!" Mu Junhe is still skeptical.

"Senior brother, what you said does make sense, but we don't need them to be deceived all the time, as long as we can let them be confused for a while." Although Mu Junhe still hesitated, he still took off the shoes on his feet.

Li Yi then tied shoes to the boar's four hooves and untied the strips of cloth tied to its legs.

The wild boar wanted to collide with Li Yi and Mu Junhe, but Li Yi immediately stabbed the boar in the ass.

Immediately, the wild boar was in pain, but its mouth was still sealed by a strip of cloth, and it couldn't scream, so it could only hum vigorously.

Then, as soon as Li Yi let go, the wild boar immediately ran towards the depths of the dense forest. And because the boar has shoes tied to his legs, he can't adapt to it for a while, so the wild boar runs with a little limp.

Watching the wild boar run farther and farther away and leave a mark on the leaves with a deep foot and a shallow foot, Li Yi smiled at the corner of his mouth.

"Senior brother, the next thing is to see if our luck is good enough." Then Li Yi began to quickly observe the underground, and then immediately ran towards a relatively concave place.

"Senior brother, lie down first!" Li Yi quickly kicked away the yellow leaves on the ground, and then beckoned to Mu Junhe.

Seeing this, Mu Junhe could only smile bitterly and shook his head and lay on the ground, and then Li Yi quickly covered him with leaves, and then he picked up some dry yellow leaves from elsewhere and scattered them evenly.

After all this last night, Li Yi quickly observed the surrounding trees, and then selected one to climb up quickly.

After climbing the tree, he chose a thicker horizontal branch and lay quietly on it. Soon Lu Hua chased here with a group of people.

"The general's traces are a little strange here!" A soldier of the city guard battalion who looked a little lean pointed to the footprints on the ground to remind Lu Hua.

Lu Hua couldn't help but look down at the traces on the ground, but his brows became more and more wrinkled.

"Why did these two men's footprints become like this?" The footprints on the ground looked like they were moving forward step by step, and the two rows of footprints were always at this distance.

"There seems to be something wrong with this footprint." Lu Hua observed for a while, and then looked around.

"General, please take a look." Suddenly, a soldier pointed to a pile of leaves on the ground and said. His shout made Mu Junhe, who was hiding under the leaves, startled, because he was completely covered by the leaves at this time, so he couldn't see the situation outside at all.

So he was now very worried about whether he had been discovered by the soldiers. But soon his hanging heart was completely relaxed.

"It's blood, and it looks like one of these two people must have been injured by an arrow." Lu Hua picked up a leaf on the ground at this time, and when he looked closely, he found that there was fresh blood on it.

"No wonder these two people's footprints are so strange, they must be injured and have difficulty moving." Lu Hua threw away the leaves in his hand and said loudly.

"Brothers, the people we want to arrest should be in front at this time, they should be shot at this time, and they are unable to move, as long as we catch up, we will definitely be able to capture them easily." The soldiers of the city guard battalion couldn't help but be overjoyed when they heard this.

The galloping horses along the way made them already a little tired and irritable, as long as they caught these two people, they could leisurely return to the city of Anzhou Prefecture to receive the rewards of the Jiedu envoy and the city lord.

When the time comes, find a tavern and listen to the little song and drink wine. You can even carry the girls in your own house to the Yinghua Pavilion or Yicuilou to find a little girl who can pinch out the water on her skin and spend a spring night together.

As soon as they thought of this, the soldiers of the city guard battalion instantly became imposing, and they excitedly followed the footprints in the direction of the wild boar's escape.

Just waited for them to completely walk away, but Li Yi was still lying motionless on the branches. Only after waiting for another quarter of an hour, they saw a few people come out from behind some large trees not far from them.

"The general is thinking too much, so many of us are chasing those two, how can those two people hide here stupidly and do not move." One of the soldiers said with some displeasure.

"That's it, everyone else is going to hunt down those two people at this time, maybe they have already caught up at this time." Another soldier said with a slight resentment.

"That is, if they really let them catch those two guys, the Lord and the Lord of the City will definitely be rewarded." The soldier from before said.

"Okay, don't be verbose, the general's order is actually something we can question, now that the time has come, let's hurry up and chase them, maybe those two will end up in our hands." A soldier who looked like a squad leader stopped the two from complaining.

Soon, several people quickly ran in the direction of the pursuit. As soon as they left, Li Yi immediately slid down the tree like a leopard.

"Senior brother, they're all gone, we have to hurry." Hearing Li Yi's shout, Mu Junhe sat up suddenly, and then patted off the leaves on his body.

"I didn't expect this Luhua to seem to be a rough person, but his mind is quite delicate, if I hadn't seen the situation outside just now, I would definitely stand up as soon as they left." Mu Junhe really didn't expect that this Luhua would leave a hand and a few people to ambush around, but he had to be careful to avoid the traps of these people.

"The soldier is treacherous, this Lu Hua is the commander of the city guard camp in Anzhou Prefecture, he must be familiar with the art of war, he just found that the footprints are strange, and he will definitely leave a hand." Li Yi said and began to run wildly in the direction they had fled before.

Although he didn't wear shoes under his feet, because a large area of the ground was covered with yellow leaves from the trees, he didn't have many people stepping on it.

Soon, the two came to the outskirts of the dense forest, and at this time, through the gaps in the trees, Li Yi and Mu Junhe found that dozens of war horses were listening to them on the mountain road not far from them.

Most of these horses were tethered to tree trunks, leisurely eating the yellowed weeds on the ground.

The soldiers of the four city guard battalions were sitting on the ground against some large trees and leisurely watching the horses.

"There are four people in front of us, one of us, two of us, we have to deal with it quickly, they can't let them send any signals." Li Yi whispered to Mu Junhe.

"Meaningless! But junior brother, are you sure that one person on your side will deal with two? Mu Junhe has full confidence in his skills, but now he is worried about whether Li Yi can handle it alone.

"Senior brother, don't worry." As Li Yi spoke, he split the Dingfeng Bo from the middle into two sections, then held one in one hand and cautiously touched it forward.

But apparently the vigilance of these men could not be compared to that hapless boar. They didn't notice until Li Yi had already touched the back of the big tree they were on.

I think it's also because the rustling sound of these war horses covers Li Yi's footsteps. After Li Yi got closer, he immediately held two guns and knocked them on the heads.

I only heard

"Bang bang" two muffled sounds, and the two unlucky guys were knocked unconscious by Li Yi without even noticing.

At the moment when Li Yi knocked the two unconscious, the other two discovered the abnormality. They happened to see a shirtless guy with a spear on his back holding two sticks in his hands, and two of their companions were lying at his feet.

"It's you!" Just as the two were about to shout, they suddenly felt a sudden pain in the back of their heads, and they lost consciousness.

At this time, behind them, Mu Junhe was holding a long sword in his hand, and he looked light.

"Senior brother, are you too ruthless?" Seeing these two people fall directly to the ground, Li Yi, who was not far away, jumped, and he thought that Mu Junhe had killed these two people.

"Don't you see that my scabbard is still on my sword! I stunned them with my scabbard. Mu Junhe erected the long sword in his hand, and when Li Yi saw it clearly, he was completely relieved.

Although it was true that they could directly kill the four of them, he didn't want to do so, after all, the other party was only following orders to hunt him down.

"Senior brother, this person on my side is about the same size as you." Li Yi said as he pulled off the other person's clothes and shoes, and then quickly put them on his body.

Not to mention, the wind in this late autumn season is still slightly chilly, plus they fell into the mirror lake before and were soaked, and they still feel very cold when the autumn wind blows.

By the time the two of them had put on their clothes, the two on the ground were now only a pair of dirty pants.

"Senior brother, you choose two war horses." Li Yi said as he untied the reins of these war horses. Then Li Yi jumped directly on a battle horse, and at the same time tied the reins of the other battle horse behind the saddle of his war horse.

Mu Junhe immediately chose two horses. After Mu Junhe jumped on the war horse, Li Yi directly stabbed the butt of a war horse with a spear in his hand.

The horse neighed like the boar, then shook off its hooves and rushed into the distance. Frightened by this war horse, all the other war horses also began to scatter and flee.

Looking at the dozens of horses scattered in front of him, Li Yi showed danger at the corner of his mouth, and then rode his war horse towards the southeast and galloped away.
