Chapter Eighty-Nine: Interception and Robbery

"Nope." Xiang Ye shook his head and said to Meng Su: "Things are going well, let's get out of here quickly, after dawn, I'm afraid the Qin army will chase after us." ”

"How do you get there without a horse?" Meng Su looked behind Xiang Ye, only to see Shi Lei and Li Xinpeng vigilantly guarding against the back, while Bai Fu stood there in a daze with a miserable face.

Xiang Ye waved his hand indifferently at Meng Su and said, "I just fought a war, there will inevitably be a war horse that has lost its owner nearby, let's look for it while walking." ”

This time it was hard to stay with the three horses left by Meng Su and the others, on Chi Ji's back sat Xiang Ye, Meng Su, Xiang Qing, Shi Lei and Li Xinpeng rode the same horse, and Wu Xiu was very generous and rode the same horse with Bai Fu.

Xiang Ye's guess is obviously very reasonable, there has just been a fierce battle, and there must be a dead knight's war horse, but they were lucky enough to carry it for dozens of miles, and they didn't see a single scattered horse.

Several people were hurrying on the road, and suddenly Shi Lei and Li Xinpeng, who were walking in the front, crooked, and the war horse under their crotch neighed and fell down heavily.

Xiang Ye and Wu Xiu hurriedly pulled the reins of their horses to stop, and as soon as they stopped, twenty or thirty black-clothed men with short swords burst out of the grass on both sides of the road.

Shi Lei and Li Xinpeng, who fell off their horses, were just about to get up, when several black-clothed people stood beside them silently, followed by several short swords on their necks.

"Who are you?" Xiang Ye held the reins of the horse in one hand and pressed the hilt of the long sword with the other, glaring at the group of black-clothed people who suddenly appeared and asked.

A man in black who seemed to be the leader stood up, he stretched out a finger to Xiang Ye and shook it back and forth, then turned his head and pointed at Li Xinpeng and said, "We are looking for him, and he has nothing to do with the others, so if you don't want to die, leave quickly!" ”

Xiang Ye originally thought that these people were looking for Meng Su, but when the man in black said that it was not Meng Su but Li Xinpeng, he was stunned for a moment, first looked at Li Xinpeng, and then arched his hand to the man in black and said, "This brother, I don't know where my brother offended you?" He is still young, and some things may be done in a biased way, so he will apologize to you in the next generation. ”

"Apologies?" The corner of the black-clothed man's mouth tugged, and he smiled a little mockingly and said: "Some things can't be solved by making a gift, he offended someone who shouldn't be offended, and it's not a gift to end the matter!" ”

Xiang Ye frowned, glared at Li Xinpeng, who had been controlled by several black-clothed people, and shouted, "Xinpeng, who have you offended?" ”

Li Xinpeng, who had a few short swords around his neck, was also confused, he looked at Xiang Ye with a bitter face and said, "I don't know either!" ”

"My brother said he didn't know where he offended everyone." After Li Xinpeng spoke, Xiang Ye turned his face to the man in black and shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm afraid you recognize the wrong person, right?" ”

"Whether he admits his mistake or not, that person wants him to die, we will never let him live until tomorrow!" Seeing that Xiang Ye was always entangled and unwilling to leave, the man in black waved his hand violently and shouted to the man in black who put the sword on Li Xinpeng's neck: "Do it!" ”

The black-clothed men were ordered, and one of them was about to cut Li Xinpeng's throat with a sword blade as soon as his arm was drawn.

"It's not that easy!" With a loud roar, a crossbow arrow whistled towards the man in black, and a "poof" sound poured from the forehead of the man in black and pierced out from the back of his head.

The arm of the man in black had just moved, and before he could cut Li Xinpeng's skin, his head was pierced by a crossbow arrow, and he fell to the ground.

Shooting a crossbow arrow, Bai Fu quickly grabbed another arrow on the crossbow and shouted to the black-clothed people around him: "Who dares to touch him, there is such a person!" ”

Dozens of black-clothed people were stunned by Bai Fu, and they were frozen there like sculptures.

Xiang Ye seized the opportunity, jumped off the horse and jumped towards Shi Lei and Li Xinpeng, who were under control.

The black-clothed man who controlled the two of them had not yet woken up from the shock brought to them by Bai Fu, only felt a silver light in front of them, and then a sharp pain in his chest, consciousness quickly peeled away from their bodies, and several wisps of grievances rose into the air.

"You ...... How dare you kill? Xiang Ye killed several men in black with just one sword, and the leader of the men in black was shocked and angry, raised his hand and pointed his sword at Xiang Ye and roared angrily.

"Murder?" Xiang Ye tilted his head, looked at the leader of the men in black with some playfulness, and said in a light tone: "If you didn't want to kill my brother, how would I kill your people?" I just want you to know that each of these people who are with me are my brothers and sisters, and anyone who wants to touch them must ask me if I agree to the sword in my hand. ”

"You ......" At the moment when Xiang Ye killed several black-clothed people with a sword, the leader of the black-clothed people understood that with these people, it was impossible to kill Li Xinpeng under Xiang Ye's nose, he could only stare at Xiang Ye angrily, and wanted to say something threatening, but he didn't know what to say.

"What am I?" Xiang Ye frowned, and said to the leader of the men in black: "My patience is very limited, if you don't want to die, get out of here as soon as possible!" ”

The leader of the men in black glared at Xiang Ye angrily, but he didn't dare to argue with Xiang Ye, and finally had to helplessly say to the remaining men in black: "Let's go!" ”

As soon as the group of black-clothed people turned around and ran more than ten steps, Xiang Ye suddenly shouted at their backs, "Wait a minute! ”

His shout was not loud, but a large group of people in black were still stopped by his shout.

"You...... What do you want to do? The leader of the men in black turned around and looked at Xiang Ye tremblingly and asked.

"Do you have horses?" Xiang Ye scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and asked with a smile at the leader of the men in black.

From the man in black, Xiang Ye and the others got a few healthy horses. But when Xiang Ye was riding on horseback alone, he felt a little lost.

When Xiang Qing and Meng Su rode the same horse with him, he was nephrite jade and the fragrance was close to the flesh, although he sat a little squeezed, but the two women sandwiched him in the middle, and there were warm and delicate bodies in front and back close to him, and he still felt very useful.

"Xin Peng, who have you offended?" snatching a few healthy horses from the black-clothed man, Xiang Ye led everyone to chase after the main force of the Chu army, because it was dark and difficult to walk, it was impossible for them to run too fast.

On the way, Xiang Ye thought about it, and felt that the gang of black-clothed people were coming, and he asked Li Xinpeng with some doubts.

"How do I know!" Li Xinpeng is also depressed, since he joined the Chu army, except for a few fights with Tong Ze, he has never offended anyone, and those Tong Ze who have fought with him will not have the ability to chase down here.

Seeing that Li Xinpeng was also confused, Xiang Ye shook his head with a wry smile and didn't speak again.

Everyone marched for nearly half an hour, Xiang Ye saw a small village in the wilderness from a distance, he raised his hand, stopped the people who were marching, and said: "I'm afraid it's hopeless to catch up with the army today, there is a village in front, why don't we stay here for the time being, and it's not too late to go tomorrow at dawn." ”

Shi Lei replied with a haha: "What the general said is that I am also sleepy, and if I continue to chase after it, I am afraid that I will not catch up with the army, but I will fall asleep on horseback first." ”

Xiang Ye looked at everyone again, and seeing that everyone did not object, he lifted the reins of the horse and said, "Since everyone is not opposed, we will go to the village tonight!" ”

When the group arrived at the entrance of the village, they quickly smelled an ominous smell. The village is too quiet, and the silence is unusual.

If it is a populated village, there must be one or two families who will raise family dogs, and as long as outsiders enter the village, the family dogs will definitely bark wildly. But this village is so quiet, so quiet that people feel a little suffocated.

Xiang Ye raised his hand and stopped the people who were advancing.

"Shi Lei, you go to the village to take a look." After everyone stopped, Xiang Ye waved his hand at Shi Lei and said, "This village is too weird, it's a little abnormal, you go and see if there are people in the village." ”

Shi Lei nodded, and rode into the village.

The horses moved forward slowly, and the hooves of the horses made a "tuk-tuk" sound on the ground. The sound of horses' hooves echoed through the silent village, and occasionally there was the sound of a horse snorting or two, adding a bit of eerie to the silent village.

Shi Lei's back gradually disappeared from the field of vision of Xiang Ye and the others, but the sound of horses' hooves in the darkness told everyone that he was still moving forward.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves stopped, followed by a long, high-pitched howl in the darkness. This long howl was not made by a human, but by some kind of beast.

With this long roar, the sound of beasts biting came from the darkness. Xiang Ye's body trembled suddenly, and he shouted loudly: "It's not good, Shi Lei is in danger!" ”

Before he could finish speaking, he had already galloped out. Meng Su and the others also followed closely with their legs and slammed the horse's belly, and rode their horses towards the darkness.

A group of wolf-like creatures surrounded Shi Lei in the middle. Shi Lei clenched the spear in his hand and stared nervously at the group of beasts that suddenly appeared in front of him.

He finally understood why he didn't even feel the breath of a living person after entering the village. It must have been the beasts that attacked the village and killed them all.

One of the largest beasts of the largest body crawled low, slowly approaching Shi Lei. When it moved four or five steps away from Shi Lei, its body suddenly jumped up, opened its mouthful and threw itself at Shi Lei's chest.

Shi Lei didn't dodge either, and at the same time as the beast jumped, the spear in his hand stabbed forward fiercely. With the sound of metal clattering against hard objects, the spear stabbed straight into the beast's mouth.

The original cruelty of this spear, coupled with the momentum of the beast's forward rush, pierced the barrel of the gun through its mouth, and actually pierced out of its anus.

The corpse of the beast hung on the spear, and Shi Lei shook it violently and threw the corpse out. Before he could withdraw his spear, several more fishy winds blew beside him, and three or four beasts seized the opportunity to attack him at the same time.
