Chapter 139: Escape from Death

Jing Ao got up and rushed into the hut, and when he saw Xiang Ye lying on the straw open his eyes, he shouted happily: "Xiang Ye, you are awake!" ”

Xiang Ye turned his head sideways, smiled at Jing Ao, and said weakly: "And I can't die."

"There are a few tents down the hill." Seeing that Xiang Ye woke up, Jing Ao breathed a sigh of relief, squatted beside him and said, "I suspect that it is those people from Wu Yue Sword Tomb, what should we do?" ”

Xiang Ye looked at the roof of the thatched hut with his eyes, and said after a while: "Let's go down the mountain, face them down the mountain, set a fire when we leave, go to the mountainside to find a place to hide, don't fight them." ”

After saying this, Xiang Ye coughed violently, and Han Xian hurriedly stepped forward to hold his back and whispered, "General, you are seriously injured, you should talk less." ”

Xiang Ye closed his eyes, nodded forcefully, and lay back on the straw.

"Mr. Han, now the people of the Sword Shrine are under the mountain, if they come up the mountain, it is estimated that it will be difficult to resist with my own strength, if I leave you behind, I am afraid that I will be poisoned by them, it is better for you to go down the mountain with us, with you, in the future, General Xiang will fight, if someone is injured around him, there is also a doctor with a good hand by his side." After Xiang Ye lay down, Jing Ao looked at Han Xian, who was squatting on the side, and tried to persuade him to go down the mountain with him.

Han Xian pondered for a while, and finally nodded and said helplessly: "Okay, it's just that if I go out with the army, what will happen to my two little children?" ”

"Da Chu has 100,000 soldiers, how many people can be missing to take care of the children?" Jing Ao smiled at Han Xian and said, "Originally, I didn't want to return with General Xiang, but from the moment he sacrificed my life to save him, I made up my mind to fight the world with him all my life, because I owe him a life!" ”

Han Xian shook his head, smiled bitterly and said, "Why don't I be, it's just, it's just that, if you don't repay your kindness, it's in vain for the world, why don't you take advantage of the darkness, let's burn the house and go on the road quickly!" ”

The two of them did what they said, Jing Ao asked Han Xian to lead Chi Ji and Xiang Ye and his two little children down the mountain first, while he himself stayed on the mountain, and waited until the figures of several people completely disappeared into the darkness before he felt the fire break from his arms.

The fire folded a few clicks, and Jing Ao twisted a handful of lighted dead grass in his hand and threw it towards the roof of the grass house.

After the burning grass fell on the roof of the grass house, the dead grass on the roof was quickly set on fire, and the fire soon "whirred" with the wind.

At the foot of the mountain, a sword mound swordsman saw a fire lit up on the mountainside, and hurriedly ran towards the tent in the middle.

The swordsman broke into the tent, and Xin Ling was sitting in the tent with his eyes closed.

"Xin Ling, it's not good!" After entering the tent, the swordsman shouted to Xin Ling: "There is a fire on the mountainside, I am afraid that Xiang Ye set fire to the house and wanted to escape." ”

"What?" As soon as he heard that there was a fire on the mountainside, Xin Ling hurriedly stood up, glared at the swordsman and asked, "Can you see clearly, is it the grass house on the mountainside that lights up the fire?" ”

"It should be good from the location!" The swordsman nodded and said with a panicked look, "What should we do?" Do you want to go up the mountain and have a look? ”

Xin Ling stepped over the low table in front of him and ran towards the outside of the tent, shouting to the swordsman as he ran: "Go and inform Xin Hao, let him come over quickly, there are two people left here to guard the tent and horses, and the others will follow me up the mountain!" ”

Not to mention that Xin Ling and the others climbed towards the mountainside, it was only said that Han Xian led Chiji, who was hunched Xiang Ye and his little children, on the hillside and walked down the mountain.

He didn't dare to walk up the mountain road, so he had to choose some dirt slopes that had no road but were slightly gentler and walked slowly down the mountain.

Chiji is really different from ordinary horses, it seems to know that its master is in danger, and it doesn't even snort along the way.

After setting the fire, Jing Ao also hurriedly ran down the mountain, but instead of running towards the front of the mountain, he bypassed the hut, deliberately stepped on the ground a few times, and ran towards the back of the mountain behind the house.

After running three or four hundred steps, he roughly measured the direction, and then turned his head and rushed towards the direction where Han Xian and the others were descending the mountain.

After running wildly for half a pillar of incense, Jing Ao saw a fiery red figure in the forest from a distance, except for Xiang Ye's red horse, no horse had such a bright coat color, and he hurriedly rushed towards the fiery red figure.

Han Xian led the horse, looked left and right and walked down the mountain, and when he saw a person suddenly rushing out from the side, his legs were so frightened that he almost fell to the ground.

Or his two children are more calm, maybe these two children are newborn calves who are not afraid of tigers, when they saw the figure rushing over, they did not panic like Han Xian, but looked at the black shadow with their eyes wide open.

"Daddy, that's Uncle Jing!" When Jing Ao rushed to a distance of more than ten steps away from them, the little boy pointed at him and whispered to Han Xian.

Han Xian sighed, and when Jing Ao arrived in front of him, he leaned in with Jing Ao and asked in a low voice, "It's almost at the foot of the mountain, what should we do?" ”

Jing Ao looked at the tent under the mountain through the woods, and said: "Grab a horse, I think most of them should go up the mountain, and it won't be a good hand to stay at the bottom of the mountain, I'll kill them, take them and grab a horse, let's hurry to the direction of Pengcheng!" ”

Han Xian nodded, he is not an expert in killing, if he wants to save people, he can be regarded as the best doctor, but if it is murder, although he has a lot of theoretical knowledge, he will never have the courage and determination to do it.

Jing Ao jumped down the hill with his waist, although his speed was fast, his steps were very light, and he only made a thin "rustle" sound when he stepped on the dead leaves. After he jumped out, Han Xian led the horse and walked unhurriedly behind.

In a tent at the foot of the mountain, two sword shrine swordsmen were sitting facing each other, with a wine bag in front of them, and the two swordsmen were boasting loudly about what great things they had done since leaving the sword shrine, while taking a sip of the wine in the wine bag.

Jing Ao heard the sound of talking from the tent from a distance, he tiptoed towards the tent where someone was talking, and when he reached the edge of the tent, he saw two shadowy figures.

The door of the tent was open in the direction facing the hillside, and when he was only four or five paces away from the tent, he suddenly sprang up and rushed towards the tent, and as soon as he lifted the curtain, he picked up his sword and slashed at the neck of the sword mound swordsman who was facing away from him.

The two swordsmen who were talking didn't expect someone to suddenly jump in, and the swordsman facing the curtain saw Jing Ao rushing in, his eyes widened, and before he could react to what was happening, his companion sitting opposite him was slashed by Jing Ao, who had just rushed in.

The swordsman sitting at the door was just about to shout loudly, when Jing Ao's long sword flipped over and stabbed forward.

The sword stabbed extremely hard and accurately, and it pierced into the swordsman's mouth, and the long sword pierced through the swordsman's mouth and came out of the back of his head, and the swordsman just made a few "ho-ho" sounds in his throat, and his body fell to the ground.

Jing Ao put his long sword on the two swordsmen who fell to the ground, wiped it, turned and walked out of the tent, and beckoned to the forest.

Han Xian, who was hiding in the woods, saw Jing Ao waving at him, and hurriedly led the horse out.

Jing Ao untied a horse tied to a tree stump and said to Han Xian: "You take two children to ride this one, and I take General Xiang to ride his one, that horse is too strong, I'm afraid you can't surrender." ”

Han Xian answered, carried the two children to the back of the horse led by Jing Ao, took the reins, turned over and jumped up.

Jing Ao picked up Xiang Ye, who was lying on Chiji's body, off the horse, helped him up and let him sit around the horse's neck, pressed his hands on the horse's back, jumped up, and jumped onto the horse's back.

After getting on the horse, Jing Ao pulled Xiang Ye's body again, let him lean on his arms, shook the reins, and after making a "drive", Chi Ji spread his four hooves and jumped forward.

After Chi Ji jumped out, Han Xian also hurriedly rode his horse to follow behind, and rushed in the direction of Pengcheng together.

On the mountainside, Xin Ling looked at the still burning hut, frowned, and said to the swordsmen behind him: "Quick, go down the mountain, they have already escaped!" ”

"Will they escape from the back mountains?" Xin Hao stood behind Xin Ling and asked in a low voice.

Xin Ling shook his head and said very confidently: "No, if I were Xiang Ye, I would definitely choose the front that looks the most dangerous, he probably also expected that we would chase after the mountain, you look at the footprints behind the house, if they didn't deliberately leave those footprints, I'm afraid I wouldn't suspect that they went down the mountain from the front, leaving those footprints, just to hide the true direction." Hehe, Xiang Ye, Xiang Ye, you are really too smart, you are actually playing such a cautious eye in front of me! ”

Speaking of this, Xin Ling did not delay at all, and hurriedly led the sword mound swordsmen to turn around and rush down the mountain, the mountain was quiet, if Xiang Ye and the others had already arrived at the bottom of the mountain, with the two people they left, they should be fully capable of blocking it.

Xin Ling did his best, but he didn't calculate that Jing Ao was a fast sword, and killing the two sword mound swordsmen who stayed behind didn't leave the other party the slightest chance to react.

When a group of people hurried down the mountain, they were stunned to find that there was one less horse tied to the stump, and in the tent where the two people stayed behind, there was a faint smell of blood.

The scene in front of him stunned Xin Ling, under the dim oil lamp, two sword mound swordsmen were lying on the ground, their white clothes had been stained red with blood.

A swordsman's neck was cut off and half pulled, his head and neck were only implicated by a slip of skin, the bone tissue of the neck at the wound and the incisions of the trachea and esophagus were clearly visible, and the blood was already a little dark, apparently dead for a while.

The other swordsman had his mouth wide open, and there was a large bloody hole in the back of his head, and Xin Ling, who was good at making swords, could see at a glance that this swordsman had been pierced through the mouth by a sword and died.
