Chapter 99: Encounter a sneak attack
Xi Yan sat in a carriage and met a large group of Taoyuan Village people who were hurrying to the town with hoes on their shoulders.
"What are you?" Xi Yan jumped out of the carriage under the surprised eyes of everyone.
"Miss Xi? We were about to look for you," Wang Gui stood at the front, "Didn't you say that we found Xu Ze!" We tried to get the people back. ”
"Yes, Miss Xi, you show us the way, otherwise we won't find it."
Xi Yan's mood became a little complicated, she really didn't expect these people in Taoyuan Village to make such a move.
"You don't have to go, someone will deal with this matter, let's go back to Taoyuan Village first and wait, Xu Ze will come back."
She sent the county government's carriage away before she said to the people of Taoyuan Village.
"Huh? Miss Xi, is this true? If we don't go, I'm afraid no one will care about Xu Ze. ”
Wang Gui put the hoe in his hand on the ground and asked very curiously.
"Naturally, it's true, I'm going to the county government to report to the official! The county magistrate will look into the matter. ”
Xi Yan saw that a group of people didn't believe in themselves, and her tone couldn't help but be a little serious, "Besides, even if you go, you can't save people at all, Changxing Street is not Taoyuan Village." ”
At the same time, Qiao Xuan and Xi He were there.
The carriage was disturbed for a while, and a group of black-clothed people surrounded them, Uncle Zhang jumped off the horse and pulled out the knife at his waist, "Who sent you?" ”
The man in black looked at Qiao Xuan, who lifted the curtain of the car to reveal half of his body, "Qingxu Dao Chief, but you killed him?" ”
Qiao Xuan was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted, it turned out to be the accomplice of the Taoist priest who was pushed into the river by himself.
"Looking for revenge on me?"
"It's good to know!" The man in black shook the big knife in his hand, exchanged a look with his accomplices, and after exchanging a look, a group of people split into two, one of them went towards Uncle Zhang, and some of them rushed towards Qiao Xuan and Xi He.
Qiao Xuan pushed Xi He beside him behind him and took out a silver whip from his waist.
"Bell!" With a bang, a cold light flashed, and an arrow was shot at the edge of the carriage, and Qiao Xuan's eyes suddenly turned cold.
It was not only the people in black in front of them who came, but also people hiding in the shadows.
Uncle Zhang practiced martial arts, and his observation was keen, so he naturally sensed that something was wrong, his expression was tense, the knife in his hand was tightened, and he moved to the carriage while fighting with the man in black.
"Be careful!"
Suddenly, an arrow came towards Xi He with a cold wind, Uncle Zhang shouted, Qiao Xuan's pupils shrank, and the next moment he pounced on Xi He's body without hesitation.
"Xiao Xuan!"
Xi He hissed and shouted, and Qiao Xuan took an arrow for him, "Xiao Xuan, how are you?" ”
Qiao Xuan gritted his teeth and shook his head with the hot pain coming from his back, "I'm fine!" ”
Although Uncle Zhang's martial arts are very high, he can't stand the large number of people on the other side, and he is entangled and can't get to Qiao Xuan and Xi He's side.
"Are you stupid? Why do you want to block it for me? Xi He's eyes were full of guilt, his eyes were red, and his body moved to Qiao Xuan's side to prevent Qiao Xuan from being injured again.
Qiao Xuan laughed with difficulty, unable to speak, and his consciousness gradually blurred.
Xi He called her name one after another, but unexpectedly, he was stabbed in the shoulder, and blood splattered.
A figure took advantage of the chaos to fly out of the dense forest and landed lightly on the roof of the carriage.
When Uncle Zhang turned to look at the carriage after the battle, he found that Qiao Xuan was gone, and Xi He was unconscious in the carriage.
"Wake up!"
Xi He was shaken awake, opened his eyes and said, "Help-Xiaoxuan." ”
————
Qiao Xuan's eyes opened for a while, and he was in a dark place, like a fish on the board, his hands and feet were tied up and placed on a table.
"Awake?"
A low, unpleasant voice rang out, and candlelight lit up in the darkness, and the surroundings gradually became clear.
Qiao Xuan looked around and found that he had been taken to a place similar to a basement, where stone walls, stone tables, and stone beds were very simple spaces.
The man in the black robe only showed a pair of gloomy eyes, looking at her gloomily.
"Who is Your Excellency? What did you bring me here for? ”
The arrow on Qiao Xuan's shoulder was pulled out, but the wound was not treated, the pain gradually hit, and she spoke, her voice was hoarse.
"Do you know occultism?"
The man in black asked.
Qiao Xuan was silent, he was able to bring himself here because he had already targeted him in advance, but now he asked knowingly.
"Can you help me resurrect someone?"
The man in black didn't wait for Qiao Xuan's answer and continued to ask himself.
"Can't!"
Qiao Xuan replied without thinking about it, coming back from the dead, this is an evil art, and the resurrection is just an evil thing in the skin of the resurrected person.
"You-" The man in black choked, got up from the stone bench, and walked towards Qiao Xuan step by step, a pair of cold hands grabbed Qiao Xuan's neck.
"Aren't you afraid I'll kill you?"
His slender eyes were strange and indifferent in the orange candlelight, and the murderous intent was pervasive.
"Ahem~" Qiao Xuan couldn't breathe, and his head began to be confused again.
Isn't she going to confess here today? She thought to herself silently.
Just as she rolled her eyes and was about to faint, the man in black spread his hand, "I'll give you half a month to think about it!" ”
Qiao Xuan closed his eyes and panted hard, his face pale.
"Think about it, do you want to die or live?"
The man in black took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve, and a black pill was thrown into Qiao Xuan's mouth.
"I think you'll figure it out!"
Qiao Xuan wanted to struggle, but he had no strength in his body.
"Bang!" With a bang, a stone door appeared, and the man in black strode away.
Qiao Xuan closed his eyes tiredly, and there was a sharp pain in his stomach, damn it! He was fed poison.
