Chapter 153: Pursuit
The accident came too quickly, and Xu Zhen could hardly react except for turning over and getting off the horse to dodge.
He could barely see that this gang of gangsters might be coming for Meng Qingxi.
But he couldn't understand why the other party had to shoot an arrow at the trunk of the tree first, and then hit Meng Qingxi in the shoulder.
Also, since you want to kill Meng Qingxi, why don't you shoot directly to the shoulder and not shoot the vital point? Now, why do you have to come out and show up?
I don't understand it, but it's not going to be good!
Since there was no carriage with a carriage, Qin Yin was also riding on another horse, so Xu Zhen quickly pulled her off the horse and hid behind the horse together.
Qin Yin was naturally frightened, and he was tightly tied to Xu Zhen's arms and didn't dare to make a sound.
It was too late, and in the blink of an eye, the first gangster had already rushed closer.
This person's feet are light, his sword is sharp, and his martial arts are extraordinary with just one move.
Although there were many people next to Meng Qingxi, these were obviously shrimp soldiers and crab generals, and they were all stupidly frozen in place at the moment, watching the first gangster swing his sword and stab at Meng Qingxi.
Swish!
Who knows, as soon as the gangster's long sword was stabbed, a stream of blood burst out on his arm!
Oh ah......
The gangster suffered from pain, and the black long sword in his hand fell to the ground.
Almost instantly, a black shadow burst out of the woods on the left, and landed in the middle of the black-clothed men in the blink of an eye.
Wow!
Xu Zhen looked through the gap in the saddle, and his heart was suddenly overjoyed, and his hanging heart was immediately put down.
But seeing that the black shadow is a female Taoist girl wearing a Xuanjiao royal wind robe, the female Taoist aunt is elegant, cold and proud, holding a black Emei thorn in her left hand, it is the iceberg jade sister - Li Chan'er!
As soon as Li Chan'er landed, she pulled out the Emei thorn that stabbed the gangster's arm, and then fought with several other gangsters!
Steady!
Xu Zhen suddenly thought that the letter he wrote to Li Chan'er before setting off played a role.
The content of the letter was very simple, that is, Xu Zhen invited Li Chan'er to go with him to Yaochang Village to solve the collective poisoning case.
Of course, the reason why I wrote this invitation letter is nothing more than to find an opportunity to get close to Miss Li.
Because Li Sixiong was seriously ill, Xu Zhen expected that Li Chan'er had not yet left Yanping, and if they wanted to hide cleanly, that secret room was undoubtedly a good place to go.
Therefore, when Xu Zhen found that the door of the secret room had been closed, it was expected that Li Chan'er would be able to see the letter she left her.
Of course, it's one thing to see the letter, but it's another thing whether people come or not.
But now it seems that Li Chan'er obviously couldn't let go of this case, and she still followed, but she happened to encounter the sudden attack in front of her.
Oops......
Worst!
Xu Zhen suddenly thought again, Li Chan'er wouldn't be secretly observing herself to solve the case the whole time, right?
That...... Tutoring for piano by myself...... She......
Burst......
Xu Zhen was distracted, but when he saw Meng Qingxi's chest, another crossbow arrow was hit, and the pain made him spurt out a mouthful of blood!
Uh-huh......
Xu Zhen came back to his senses and realized that these gangsters in front of him were not as easy to deal with as he imagined.
peeked, but saw two more gangsters rushing out of the woods on the left, all of them adding up to six.
Xu Zhen finally understood, no wonder the original crossbow arrow hit the trunk of the tree, it turned out that Li Chan'er had already discovered that these gangsters were plotting against each other and acted in time.
At this moment, including the masked gangster with an injured arm, the six of them surrounded Li Chan'er and fought extremely fiercely.
Xu Zhenke has seen Li Chan'er make a move, even if she is as strong as Shen Yu, she has not gone through ten rounds under her.
So according to common sense, these six people should be able to be taken down by Li Chan'er within a minute, right?
Thinking of this, Xu Zhen habitually looked at his wrist, thinking that he was wearing a watch on his hand!
When he raised his head again, he realized that his estimate was actually quite accurate.
Because when I looked at the past again, with Li Chan'er's two Emei thorns doing whatever they wanted, they were out of nowhere, and the six gangsters had all been stabbed and fell!
Too...... It's so handsome!
Li Chan'er's movements are chic and elegant, sharp and smart, especially the ponytail flicking around, the slender figure, and the delicate facial features......
However, the next scene broke the harmony in Xu Zhen's eyes.
Because after seeing that they were injured and no longer had combat power, the six gangsters actually swallowed the sleeve pills one after another, and then spurted blood from their mouths and died violently on the spot!
"Oh...... Oh......"
At the same time, Xu Zhen heard Meng Qingxi's wail, but saw that his chest was rising and falling violently, as if he was about to die.
No way?
Could it be that crossbow arrows are poisonous?
Xu Zhen couldn't stay any longer, so he hurriedly rushed to Meng Qingxi and wanted to ask.
But when I looked closer, I found that Meng Qingxi had been hit by four or five crossbow arrows, and one of them was directly out of his heart, obviously he was not saved!
"Uh......h Woo......" Meng Qingxi was still raising his arms, his mouth was open and closed, as if he had something to say.
Xu Zhen hurried close to his mouth, only to hear Meng Qingxi say a name with difficulty: "Qing...... Qinghui ...... Meng Qinghui...... He...... Oh......"
Yes?
Xu Zhen was instantly confused, wasn't Meng Qinghui the richest man in Yaochang Village who drank poisoned wine?
Why did Meng Qingxi mention his name?
"You ......" When Xu Zhen looked over again, he found that Meng Qingxi had lost his breath, and his right hand was still on his heart.
This......
How so?
Since Xu Zhen crossed, he had never encountered such an uncontrollable accident.
Without warning, it came violently and suddenly.
This Meng Qingxi's identity is obviously not simple?
At this moment, everyone else was stunned, shivering behind the tree.
Although Li Chan'er has solved all the gangsters, it gives them the feeling that Li Chan'er seems to be more terrifying than the gangsters.
"What did he tell you?"
At this time, after confirming that the six masked gangsters were all dead, Li Chan'er turned around and pointed to Meng Qingxi's body and asked Xu Zhen.
Finished.
This sentence alone is enough to confirm Xu Zhen's guess that since the first day she entered Yaochang Village to investigate the case, Li Chan'er has been quietly paying attention to herself.
For a moment, Xu Zhen seemed to be undressed, and Li Chan'er could see through it.
"Hey," Li Chan'er's face sank, "I asked you!" β
"Miss, I'm ......" Xu Zhen looked at Meng Qingxi's corpse, and then at the corpses of the six masked gangsters, and then turned his heart sideways and said to Li Chan'er very solemnly, "I want to announce one thing now!" You can say yes or no, but you'd better think about it. β
"What?" Li Chan'er shook off the blood on her eyebrows, and asked, "What do you mean?" What's up? β
"I want to ......," Xu Zhen said resolutely, "I want to pursue you!! Be My Girlfriend...... Oh...... Be my fiancΓ©e, right? β
Swish......
For a moment, the trees were all silent.
The people hiding behind the tree were stupid, and the maid Qinyin was also surprised and covered her mouth.
"...... you" Li Chan'er also didn't know why, so she immediately raised her right hand and stabbed at Xu Zhen, "Are you looking for death?" β
"If you don't forget each other in the rivers and lakes," Xu Zhen said very seriously, "But I can't forget you!" I don't want to forget about you in the rivers and lakes, I have the right to chase you......"
Before the word "li" at the back was spoken, the bloodstained Emei thorn had already been placed on Xu Zhen's throat......
