Chapter 39: Fighting Back in the Snow
Qiu Tiankui did not realize that his end was coming, he showed off his strength and took a group of court officers and soldiers out of the city to the halfway point, the cold wind was biting, and many soldiers were shivering because they were not wearing leather jackets or heavy armor for warmth.
A few gusts of north wind howled, Qiu Tiankui and others were braved by the wind and snow when they were walking on the mountain road, and it was difficult to move an inch, and the local officers and soldiers behind him and Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) were ready to make a move on Qiu Tiankui in the mountain road to the imperial court.
"Is Miss Ji ready to kill such a traitor, now is the mountain road that can be covered with snow bunkers to escape."
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) breathed a sigh of relief, she knew that the enemy in front of her had killed Ji Xiuming, who was the most appropriate to protect her, in order to avenge Ji Xiuming, Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) temporarily came up with a countermeasure.
Just as Qiu Tiankui was preparing to wait with the court officers and soldiers to wait for the wind and snow to stop, and rest in place, the court officers and soldiers took out their own rations to Qiu Tiankui to satisfy their hunger.
Qiu Tiankui looked at the surrounding ice and snow, covered with snow, took the ration cake given by the officers and soldiers of the court and ate it, although it was tasteless, it was a fragrant food, and he swallowed the dates in a few bites.
Watching the officers and soldiers of the court sitting in place eating flatbread with relish, Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) may have eaten for a long time, although he looked greedy, but escaping and revenge are not decisions to be made in his mind.
"I'm going to have to make a personal arbitrary decision now." , Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) carefully looked at this group of Jifu soldiers who hid their identities intact, in order to avenge Ji Xiuming, she watched the enemy eat and thought: "I don't know if you have laxatives or something like that?" ”
"What is a laxative? Miss Ji, we don't understand. ”
I almost forgot that I was now in ancient times, where were there laxatives in ancient times, Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) thought that there were no laxatives, so it was not impossible to poison the rations in the hands of these thieves.
"Laxatives are not out of the way." , Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) looked at these retainers again, and she asked in a low voice: "Do you have any poison in your hands that can stun your opponent, or twitch your limbs and foam at the mouth?" ”
"Hey, Miss Ji, in addition to knives and spears, we don't have any medicine in Langzhong, who is studying medicine, and we are not a wizard who practices sacrifices."
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) only then thought that the general battle and killing the enemy are all dancing knives and guns, who is playing a little trick of poisoning with you, but now the advantage is not proportional, if you fight directly, these retainers are not the opponents of Qiu Tiankui and other court officers and soldiers at all.
At this moment, Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting), who was sitting in the prisoner car, lowered his head and was pondering what good way to kill Qiu Tiankui, when suddenly snowflakes fell from the sky, and snowflakes flew to cover the mountain road again.
The mountain road is icy, the road surface is more slippery, and it is more difficult for people to climb the mountain to explore the road, and Qiu Tiankui, who is riding a horse, has to walk the mountain road with the officers and soldiers of the imperial court.
Many people are cautious, and the soldiers who lead the horses for Qiu Tiankui are even more careful, after all, this livestock is an important tool for carrying people that must travel in ancient times, and if the long snowy road of the horse is lost, the walking time of each person to return to the imperial court thousands of miles away will be greatly reduced.
Don't think about anything like a quick whip, Qiu Tiankui asked everyone to press their feet, and at the same time pay attention to the snow sliding on the surrounding mountains, resulting in a disaster avalanche caused by the mountain road being covered with snow.
"The snow road is not easy to walk, so everyone must be careful."
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) took advantage of the fact that it was difficult to find someone on the snowy mountain road, she deliberately covered her stomach and pretended to cry out for pain to get Qiu Tiankui's attention, and the retainers of Jifu also used weapons to beat the prisoner car to attract the attention of the court officers and soldiers.
"Oops, my stomach suddenly feels uncomfortable, it doesn't matter if a girl's family pulls it in her pants and smokes herself, if you meet today's holy driving decree to let the little girl enter the palace, the smell is disrespectful to the king."
"Oops, you stink, the brother in front of me has been farting in front of us halfway, this smell is unbearable, you all come and smell it."
Seeing this, the officers and soldiers of the imperial court were very resistant, and the prisoners who followed Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) were all Jifu retainers, Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) looked at these people, and the Jifu retainers all understood and pinched their noses.
"It's so stinky, isn't it that the girl's family wants to pull her pants pocket, and she can't be ashamed to death if she is known."
The officers and soldiers of the imperial court who came to inquire about the situation saw that Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) was a woman, after all, people in ancient times were very conservative in their thinking, Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) grasped the backward ideas of ancient times and could not compare with the current avant-garde ideas, she deliberately pointed at these men and shouted.
"A woman's chastity is very important, you hooligans don't peep, otherwise I can kill myself in the snow with a dagger, after all, your Lord Qiu has worked hard to make me admit that it is the princess of the previous dynasty, okay, I don't recognize it."
"Now my stomach is uncomfortable, but I can't pull it in my trouser pocket at will, there are many people in the city, and it is very tricky to use the latrine, so it is better to let the little woman walk in the snow first."
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) showed a painful expression, she became exaggerated, her limbs twisted and she didn't forget to cover her stomach with her hands, in order to make these court officers and soldiers who came over believe that she was real, she deliberately asked the ventriloquist to imitate the sound of a fart.
The officers and soldiers of the imperial court who did not know the truth thought that Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) was really eating a bad stomach, and at this time, many retainers of Jifu began to cooperate with Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting)'s acting skills.
"People have three urgencies, not to mention that the living are suffocated to death by their own, isn't it a ridiculous thing to let the world know?"
Qiu Tiankui and the others had just finished eating rations before they were on the road, and they heard that there was a quarrel behind them and wanted to find out.
"What are you talking about?"
"Report to Master Qiu, this little woman doesn't know what's uncomfortable, as if she's holding her stomach and saying that she wants to go for convenience."
"A few of you go and guard her." , Qiu Tiankui doesn't have many rules for gender distinction, but he knows that this kind of criminal brought back to the palace for reward, regardless of gender, must be guarded, and said to several officers and soldiers: "Don't let her escape at a convenient time." ”
"Oops, my stomach has eaten something uncomfortable, the cold wind blows all over my body along the way, and my thin clothes must be frozen and cold and make my stomach hurt, oops."
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) held her stomach, her blushing face was holding back, as if it was a flower about to bloom, her calves kept twisting with her hips, as if there was a hot current rushing down the intestines to the exit, watching Cheng Yuxi discharge exhaust was a look of enjoyment.
"He's in his own skirt today, and you must keep an eye on this little woman, I think that when she is captured by my men, she may create an opportunity to escape."
"Huh, for me, a weak girl who has been caught by you, you and have to be guarded by you big men, obviously disrespecting my chastity."
Seeing this, Qiu Tiankui thought that the air on a snowy day could dissipate the smell, but when Qiu Tiankui came over to the prisoner cart to observe, the retainers of Jifu on the side deliberately stretched out their feet and poured Qiu Tiankui next to the prisoner cart.
"Ouch, Master Qiu, are you okay, be careful."
"Damn, phew, I'm fine."
Just as Qiu Tiankui got up, Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) deliberately asked the retainer who was holding Qiu Tiankui to take out the smelly things, and when he didn't pay attention to the dirt of his clothes, he quickly grabbed a handful of the wind into his nostrils.
"Ahem, what smells so bad." Qiu Tiankui felt a very unpleasant smell in his nostrils, he quickly dispersed the smell with his hands, his spicy eyes were tearful and asked everyone: "The smell just now is not only choking the nose, but also some spicy eyes." ”
It turned out that what the retainers of Jifu were holding in their hands was not a stinky fart weapon, but a chili noodle eaten by a man, as long as it cooperated with the air flow and waved towards Qiu Tiankui's eyes, this could not be instantaneous.
"What the hell is it, Spicy Eyes?"
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) saw that Qiu Tiankui's eyes were spicy by the chili noodles, so she immediately asked her retainers to walk in front of Qiu Tiankui, took the sheep to find the key, and opened the door of the prisoner car while the court officers and soldiers were helping to rub Qiu Tiankui's eyes.
"Oh, what the hell is this?"
"Master Qiu, don't panic, your subordinates will help you blow it, it may be that the wind was strong just now, and there should be sand and dust entering your eyes."
Originally, the pain of chili noodles was already unbearable when they entered his eyes, and he was blown by his subordinates with his mouth, and his numb eyes turned red in an instant, and he kicked them away directly.
"Get out, Lao Tzu's eyes are all blown blind by you."
"Master Qiu, I didn't mean to, and I don't know what you put in your eyes."
In order not to make the court officers and soldiers in front of him wait for a long time, a group of Jifu retainers instantly took out the big knives in their hands in the dark, and at this moment, Qiu Tiankui felt that the surrounding atmosphere was suddenly quiet.
He thought that he had been tricked by the killer's intuition, and Qiu Tiankui ignored the soreness inside his eyes, and saw that Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) inside the prisoner car had disappeared, and he stomped his feet on the spot angrily.
"Damn, this cunning guy, she must have an accomplice running away, she shouldn't run too far, I'll catch her."
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) and the retainers of Jifu fled to the dense forest on the snow road, because these places were all white, basically as long as the color of the clothes matched, the court officers and soldiers who were chasing after them would not find out.
"A few of you go over there to search, a few of you go over there to search."
"Yes."
The snow covered the mountains and forests, the howling north wind made people sneeze unconsciously, and because Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting)'s clothes were too thin, he was put on his shoulders with a coat by his own retainers to keep warm.
"Miss Ji, this ice and snow can't freeze your body."
"Thank you for your concern."
In the face of the search and arrest of the officers and soldiers of the imperial court, Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) used the already wide road surface of the snowy mountain road to use the naturally growing dense pine forest to deal with the officers and soldiers of the imperial court.
"It's so big, and there are a lot of trees to cover for, if only you could sneak up on these guys."
"Miss Ji, please rest assured, we have been hunting wild game in the mountains with Jihou since the beginning, and our understanding of the terrain can be better than that of these court officers and soldiers, and we will inevitably be caught off guard by this group of people."
"Then it is entirely up to you to avenge Jihou, how can we destroy several times the enemy?"
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) is not very familiar with this mountain road, and how to destroy several times as many enemies is completely dependent on the retainers who have followed Ji Xiuming through a hundred battles.
But looking at the black pressure in the snow is full of court officers and soldiers, the large number of oppression also makes Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) look at the number of his own soldiers is not dominant, and the enemy still has a bow and crossbow.
Facing the disadvantage of weapons, she was a little panicked in her heart, if she fought head-on inside the snow road, she might die here, if she didn't fight back and avoid being besieged by the court officers and soldiers, she would be short of water and food, not to mention that it was still a bad winter, it was not easy to find food and heat in the snow.
"Huh, the snow is full of snowflakes, this pine forest has been specially blocked by the officers and soldiers of the imperial court, and there are archers waiting for us to show their heads, and the left and right are full of people from the imperial court."
Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) was in a heavy mood instantly, and she looked at the group of retainers accompanying her, but there were only dozens or hundreds, and such a gap could only distract the enemy's attention and distract their action first.
"Miss Ji don't panic, although we have few people, but these court officers and soldiers will be dizzy when they enter this dense forest, as long as we make a slight move, hide a little under the cover of the mountain or tree trunk, and prepare to give the opposite side a heart-piercing arrow, we must secretly hit these people to either die or be injured."
"Act now," Cheng Yuxi (Ru Ting) looked at Qiu Tiankui and the court officers and soldiers with hatred, she motioned to her retainers to ambush and said to them: "Let these people feel our anger from the bottom of our hearts in a while." ”
"Yes, Miss Ji."
