Chapter VII

"I told you, don't come, I'll kill him with a knife if I come over again."

The killer is also angry. It had already been said that they would just kill someone. Later, they said they would take the man alive and bring him back. There was really no way, so they came up with this decision. Otherwise, this man would have died by his own sword long ago. Why so many twists and turns. There's no way now, it's better to kill someone than nothing.

He glanced at the people around him twice, and his eyes signaled to them, the knife in his hand had already cut Shen Yuan's neck

At this moment, Ye Mo touched the dart on his waist. Shoot straight through. Pierced the man's eyes.

The man was in pain, and his hand was out of strength. Ye Miao rushed over with a brisk stride. Pulled Shen Yuan behind him.

"Look for death!"

The killer pulled the dart down in pain and raised his knife to fight Ye Ning.

Ye Miao didn't expect that the person in front of her still had some kung fu and injured one eye, and he could catch her in a few tricks.

However, this person is fighting with Ye Yuan on the surface, but he actually intends to be Shen Yuan behind Ye Yuan.

Seeing through his intentions, Ye Wei deliberately left him an opening.

Just as the man was slashing at Shen Yuan with his knife, Ye Yuan stabbed him in the chest with a sword from behind. Blood spilled on Shen Yuan's face.

With shock in his eyes, the man fell straight down with a glare.

Shen Yuan touched the blood on his face, and his consciousness seemed to have returned to the Buddha hall ten years ago.

"Are you alright?" Ye Yuan held Shen Yuan's wrist.

Shen Yuan looked at Ye Ning in front of him, and there was a lot of blood on his face. Some are someone else's, some are herself.

He grabbed his sleeve and wiped Ye Yuan's face, the blood hanging from his eyelashes trembled up and down with the movement of his eyes.

Ye Yuan sensed that something was wrong with Shen Yuan, she held his wrist in her hand, and held the sword in her right hand.

The rest have already been surrendered by their own soldiers.

"Say, 'Who sent you?' Ye Miao pointed his sword at one of them.

The man didn't make a sound.

As soon as the tip of Ye Yuan's sword was raised, the man fell to the ground with a thud, blood gushing out of his neck.

"Is there anyone you'd like to talk to?" Ye Miao glanced at the group of people.

"No one? Kill them all. After speaking, he pulled Shen Yuan and planned to leave.

Immediately after that, several more people fell to the ground.

"Master Jun, Master Jun, I said." One of them kowtowed tremblingly and said, "Don't, don't kill me, I'll say it all." โ€

"Who sent you?"

"I, we are the swordsmen who take money to do things on the rivers and lakes. Someone gave us a portrait of a man and asked us to take the life of this son. โ€

Ye Miao threw the sword down, and the blood-stained sword was stuck on the ground, and the blood flowed down the blade of the sword.

"I said, I said, at first we received the news that we were going to kill people directly, take the heads of the people, and then ...... And he added silver, and let us bring them back. โ€

"What did you do to him?" Ye Yuan looked at Shen Yuan, he just looked at Ye Yuan in a daze, his eyes were empty.

"I'm afraid that he will make a noise, and he will take a little dumb medicine."

The man knelt on the ground and kowtowed vigorously.

"Master Jun, Master Jun, that's all I know, that's all." The man knelt on the ground and trembled, "Everything else is in charge of our eldest brother, and he has just been killed by you." โ€

Ye Miao looked at him like this and knew that he shouldn't be lying.

"And how did you pretend to be from our army?"

The man tore off a piece of skin from his face, and presented it with both hands, "Master Jun, this is our eldest brother's unique skill-disguise technique, which can transform into someone else's appearance, but only for two hours." โ€

"What about the original people?" The older soldier in the crowd asked sadly.

"I, we'll take advantage of the changing of the guard to cut them off and disguise them as if they were already killed." The more the man spoke, the quieter he became, and he knew he wouldn't survive.

"You-" The older soldier stepped forward with his sword in his hand, but was stopped.

"Take it back and see if you can pry anything out." Ye Miao pulled out the sword on the ground, "Leave him a whole corpse." โ€

The man was lifted up by two soldiers and dragged to leave.

"Forehead ......"

The man looked down and saw that his chest had been pierced by an arrow, and finally ...... Big brother, I'm sorry for you, I .......

Ye Miao turned around, this person had been killed by that cold arrow. Shen Yuan suddenly stood in front of Ye Yuan and firmly protected her, which surprised her.

"There is also an ambush, pay attention to concealment." Ye Yuan pulled Shen Yuan to hide behind a tree. She looked at Shen Yuan, not like she had regained her senses, she was just a subconscious act.

At this time, several arrows came from the shadows, piercing the air and making a chilling sound, Ye Mo heard the sound of gasping in his ears, some of his soldiers were hit by arrows, some people were behind, and there were not many people with him, I don't know the strength of the other party and the enemy is dark and I am clear, it is not easy to advance.

Everything returned to calm, and the people hiding in the shadows carefully groped out with knives in their hands, searching for Ye Miao and their figures.

"Here!" Someone shouted.

Ye Yuan pulled Shen Yuan in one hand, and held a sword in the other hand to deal with the enemy.

With Shen Yuan, plus she had just finished a battle, she was a little lacking in skills.

These people and the people just now are obviously not a wave, the envoy just now is the move of the rivers and lakes, and now these are well-trained, very difficult, and Ye Yuan They are not dominant in terms of numbers now.

She took off Shen Yuan's coat and draped it over a soldier, signaling them to move closer in the direction of the large army, and she took Shen Yuan in the opposite direction.

It's dark right now, and it's not very real, so you should be able to confuse it.

Sure enough, the group of people followed the direction of the large army, but they still sent a small team of people to chase Ye Yuan and Shen Yuan.

Very vigilant, Ye Wei slandered.

She dragged Shen Yuan through the forest, seeing that there was no way to go on like this. Then she saw a hut, which was supposed to be a resting place for hunters to hunt.

"Shen Yuan, you stay here and wait for me. Did you hear that? โ€

Seeing that Shen Yuan didn't react, Ye Yuan looked around and found straw to cover him. Shen Yuan tugged at the corner of her clothes, Ye Yuan patted his hand to show appeasement, and walked out with a sword.

Less than fifty meters, he met the man in black who had caught up.

"Say, who sent you to assassinate the prince, but it is also a capital crime."

The men did not reply, but rushed forward with their knives.

Ye Miao was entangled with them, and suddenly he was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, and someone was hiding in the dark with an arrow crossbow.

"Your grandmother likes to release dark arrows so much, right?" Ye Mo took out a dart from his waist and turned around and shot it, and someone fell to the ground in the distance.

Ye Miao pulled out the sword on his shoulder with his backhand and threw it at the person nearby, the man raised the knife to block, and Ye Miao took this opportunity to understand him with a sword.

"Your aunt, grandma, when I cut off other people's heads on the battlefield, you were still drinking milk in your mother's arms!", Ye Rong moved his wrist and rushed out with his sword.

After a hard battle, accompanied by the sound of the last person falling to the ground, the battle finally ended, and Ye Miao was half-kneeling on the ground panting.

There was no poison on the arrow, and Ye Miao was not worried. This group of people is all unusual, and it seems that someone has made up their minds to take Shen Yuan's life.

Ye Miao guessed in his heart that it should be related to Jingzhong, but it is difficult to say who it is.

She returned to the hut and pulled out the thatch, Shen Yuan was still motionless in the same posture as before she left.

"Shen Yuan, Shen Yuan" Ye Yuan shook him, but he didn't react, "Can you hear me?" โ€

She couldn't stay here for a long time, she pulled Shen Yuan up and was about to leave, but she accidentally pulled the wound of the arrow during her action, "hiss-".

Hearing Ye Yuan's voice, Shen Yuan seemed to suddenly come back to his senses, he looked at Ye Yuan, his hand touched Ye Yuan's face, and he desperately said something in his mouth, but he forgot that he drank the dumb medicine, and now he can't speak.

Tears fell from his eyes one by one, he desperately dragged Ye Yuan's hand, crying and trying to make a sound, his body slowly slid against the pillar, but his eyes never left Ye Yuan.

With Shen Yuan's movements, Ye Yuan had to bend down to accommodate him, she looked at Shen Yuan's eyes, and Shen Yuan was also looking at hers, these eyes were full of horror and sadness.

Ye Yuan squatted down and stroked away the tears on Shen Yuan's face with her hand, and the tears and blood stains slowly faded away and bloomed on her hands.

Shen Yuan, what have you experienced?

"You son of a murderer, I will kill you to avenge my mother."

"No, I'm not, I'm not ......"

ยท

"Your Highness, all the ladies believe in Buddhism, you can copy the Buddhist scriptures for them! After copying them, you will be able to ascend to Elysium, and you will not be considered a sinner. โ€

"Really? It's true...... Is it? โ€

ยท

"Your Highness...... Live, go to the Buddha hall to copy the scriptures, live...... Go down. Go ......."

ยท

"Your eyes are so similar to your mother's! The Buddhist scriptures are almost finished, I remember that you said that you would go to find your mother after copying? Well, you know what to do, it's your atonement for yourself, go ahead......"

ยท

"Shen Yuan, I'm going to die, it's all because of you, because you ......"

"Leaf Root, Leaf Leaf Root......"

ยท

"Shen Yuan, Shen Yuan, Shen Yuan."

Shen Yuan opened his eyes suddenly, Ye Yuan's face came into view, and he took a sharp breath.

He had a long, long dream.

"Are you okay?"

Shen Yuan wanted to speak, but found that he couldn't make a sound.

"You haven't finished your dumb medicine yet, and you can't speak for the time being."

Shen Yuan nodded, he looked at Ye Yuan's and then at her shoulder. He remembered that Ye Yuan's shoulder was injured. At that time, Ye Miao appeared in front of him covered in blood, as if he had brought him back to that night.

Ye Wei patted his shoulder and said, "This is a minor injury, it's not in the way, and it will be better soon." You're going to drink the medicine and get some rest. โ€

Shen Yuan drank the medicine brought in by Sanshun and lay on the bed, looking at the figure of Ye Yuan leaving, but he didn't dare to close his eyes.

ยท

"The brothers who died in battle are buried well, and the pensions are arranged."

Wang Hu nodded.

"How's that group of killers?" Ye Mo asked.

"I've seen it all, and there is no one alive with poison in my mouth." Wang Hu.

"Have you searched everything?"

"Searched, they were vigilant, and nothing was left."

Ye Miao moved his injured shoulder and said, "What about the swordsman?" โ€

"I searched it too, but it was of no value, and the others may have to be investigated to find out."

"Hmm" Ye Miao nodded, "Tell everyone to pack up and prepare to leave, the prince's condition is unstable, this place is not very far from Ancheng, let's rush over as soon as possible and bring the corpses of these people with us." โ€

Anseong is the last city to reach the border city, with Yeonling in its back. The prison army sent by Jingzhong has been living here, and someone assassinated the prince, and this matter has to be reported back to Beijing.
