Li Yan's subordinates also knew that they were about to escape, and gradually eased up, waiting for the opportunity to shoot arrows up frequently to shoot back.

Arrows whizzed against the cliff wall. Chen Shao ordered people to avoid arrows carefully while continuing to chase the road.

Pei Xiaoyuan's eyebrows furrowed slightly. He stopped on a slightly larger stone platform recessed by the cliff face, leaned out, and surveyed the terrain again.

Arrows from below shot at the nearby cliff face, and the rocks on the cliff face loosened, and stones of different sizes fell from the top of his head.

"Beware, colt!" Chen Shao shouted.

Pei Xiaoyuan avoided this falling stone. Soon, there was a dull and chaotic echo of stones falling to the bottom of the cliff.

His gaze moved slightly, as if inspired, and he suddenly looked up at the opposite cliff.

There, there was a large oval-shaped weathered boulder weighing a thousand pounds and requiring five or six men to enclose it, with only one bottom attached to the cliff wall, surrounded by criss-crossing roots and dead vines, and the rest of the body was suspended in the air.

If you can make this boulder fall......

"Take the rope!" Pei Xiaoyuan said.

Chen Shao followed his gaze, landed on the boulder, leaned over and looked down, suddenly understood, and hurriedly gave the order.

They were well prepared before they set off, and the ropes were a must-have for climbing.

Soon, several pieces of hemp rope as thick as a child's arm were prepared. Pei Xiaoyuan tied a horse knot at one end of the rope, and after seeing it, he threw it to the opposite side.

The rope hovered in the air, unfolding section by section, the front end flew above the boulder, and the lasso knot landed accurately on the boulder, and when the rope loop slid to the middle of the boulder, Pei Xiaoyuan pulled the rope suddenly, and the rope tightened, and the lock was locked, and the stone was firmly lassoed.

Chen Shao ordered people to continue shooting arrows downward, trying to slow down the speed of Li Yan and his party approaching the pass, and at the same time summoned more than a dozen strong people to pull the boulder together.

The location of this boulder is just above the pass. If you make it fall, you can block the pass and intercept the person.

The boulder began to shake slightly as it was pulled by the force from the opposite side, and many small epiphytic stones and mud and sand fell nearby.

Everyone continued to exert their strength, and the boulder shook more and more violently, and the rope was even more stretched straight, making a slight creaking sound.

However, no matter how hard you exert yourself, it is always a little bit worse.

In addition to the sand and gravel adhesion at the bottom of the stone and the cliff wall, the roots and dead vines wrapped around the stone face are also extremely thick. They stretched out from the crevices of the cliffs, like countless tough and powerful arms, tightly holding the boulder in place.

On Pei Xiaoyuan's side, due to the limited space of the stone platform, it is no longer able to accommodate more people.

"Hold the rope, I'll go!" He said immediately.

Chen Shao suddenly understood, looked down at the bottom of the cliff, and hurriedly stopped: "Don't be a horse!" I'm over! ”

"I'll go!" Pei Xiaoyuan had already taken off the waist knife from one of the guards beside him and carried it.

"Don't risk your horses, let me go!" Chen Shao tried his best to stop it.

"Time is running out, so there's no need to fight. I'm younger than you, I'm better to go. ”

After Pei Xiaoyuan finished speaking, he squatted down, grabbed the rope with both hands, and tried it, and then, I saw that he was like an ape, and with a slippery, the person hung on the rope in the air.

He climbed the rope above his head with both hands, alternating his arms, and carried himself with him, and quickly crossed towards the opposite side.

Chen Shao was nervous and ordered someone to hold on to this end of the rope tightly. At this time, the people below also noticed that there was something strange on the top of his head, and soon, the random arrows were fired at him again.

"Protect the colt!"

Chen Shao yelled. The crossbowmen counterattacked violently, and with the advantage of the heights, they finally suppressed this wave of attacks.

At this time, Pei Xiaoyuan was almost on the opposite side.

Below, Li Meng ordered someone to speed up and escort Li Yan to the pass quickly, and he chose the best position, drew his bow and aimed, and fired three arrows in a row at Pei Xiaoyuan.

Pei Xiaoyuan was in mid-air, swinging his body, avoiding the first two arrows shot one after another, and kicked away the third arrow, and then, continuing to move forward quickly, grabbed an old vine that was climbing on the surface of the boulder with his palm, and the person climbed the cliff.

His back pressed against the cliff wall, moving behind the boulder, and then, with a swift draw, he began to slash at the thickest roots and dead vines that were wrapped around the boulder.

The whole process is without a pause.

The vine was cut off by him. Chen Shao ordered people to exert their strength again.

Finally, this time, with a muffled sound of the stone clicking and displacement, the boulder was completely separated from the cliff.

"Let go!"

In Chen Shao's shouting, all the guards released the ropes. At the same time, Pei Xiaoyuan quickly untied the rope from the boulder.

Like a small mountain peak from the sky, the boulder rolled down from the cliff wall with a terrifying force that changed people's color.

Suddenly, the narrow valley crashed like hell. The boulder carried more stones, large and small, that it had smashed down on the way.

Li Yan was almost at the pass at this time. The horses were waiting for him in front of him. He was shocked by the sudden but loud sound like the top of Mount Tai coming from his head, and for a moment, he looked up in amazement, and forgot to react.

"Your Highness beware!"

It was Wei Yinniang's frightened call beside him that woke him up.

"Protect Your Highness!"

At this time, Li Meng pounced and pushed Li Yan back to dodge.

With a loud bang, accompanied by the terrible sound of people and the chaotic neighing of horses, the boulder fell on the heads of several people who had no time to escape, and then slammed heavily into the valley bottom.

As if the earth was shaking, accompanied by a cloud of smoke and dust that flew high enough to be high, those nearby who were lucky enough not to be hit were also shocked and fell to the ground.

When the dust and fog gradually dissipated, I saw that the exit in front of me had been blocked by boulders and countless broken miscellaneous trees, and more stones were still rolling down from the rock wall on one side, piling higher and higher. One of his lower bodies was crushed under the boulder, his eyes, ears and nose kept gushing blood, his open mouth slowly slid outwards and spit out pieces of flesh and blood that looked like intestines, but the others were not yet dead, one hand was still slightly grasping the ground, looking at his companion, silently signaling for help.

However, his companions around him had long since taken care of themselves. Seven or eight of them were hit by smaller rocks that rolled down one after another. The light ones have broken their heads and blood, and the heavy ones have broken their muscles and bones.

Li Meng was hit in the arm by a tumbling stone and was forced to let Li Yan go. When he recovered, he jumped up from the ground and looked for Li Yan everywhere, regardless of his injured arm.

"Your Highness! Your Highness! Where are you! ”

With a suppressed moan of pain, he saw that one of Li Yan's legs was pressed by a stone of at least a few dozen catties, and his leg was already dripping with blood. Li Meng changed greatly, immediately rushed up, pushed away the stones, and immediately summoned several nearby cronies who were safe and sound, and sent Li Yan on horseback: "Your Highness follow me!" There is also a way out from the edge of the field! ”

The road is a detour, relatively long, and passes through a swamp.

However, even if the danger lurks, it's worth the risk, and in any case, it's better than being trapped here and fighting the trapped beasts.

"Take her!" Li Yan's face turned pale, but he still gritted his teeth and ordered.

Wei Yinniang had just escaped, and at the moment she was holding herself with both hands, hugging on the inside of the valley floor to avoid the large and small gravel that was still sliding above her head.

She has stayed in Chang'an, but she no longer has contact with the woman she once called "Ah Mei" and later officially became the princess of the Holy Dynasty. Even when she got married and sent someone to bring the wedding cake, she didn't accept it behind closed doors.

Her sister Bingxue is smart, she should have realized her wishes, and since then, she has never bothered her again.

This made Wei Yinniang extremely grateful.

She can catch up with the "sister" named Suyu, as if nothing had happened, one of them was the sister of the Wei family back then, and the other was still the little lord of the palace. However, she couldn't pretend that nothing had happened. It's as if she can't erase the home in her memory, and the expectation of the pleasure of revenge can't be as hard as her former lover.

She has lost her place and does not know where she has returned. This may be her greatest sorrow.

Aside from the little building she knew, she didn't know where else she could go.

She thought that her life like a backwater would continue like this, until not long ago, Li Yan, who had disappeared, sent someone to contact her again, and then, just a few days ago, I don't know what kind of relationship he used, quietly took her out of Chang'an.

Li Yan said that his great event was about to be accomplished, and he wanted to leave Chang'an for the time being, so he took her with him to make up for his past debt to her.

He wanted her to see his ascent with her own eyes and share the glory with him.

When she heard Li Yan tell her about this, her heart was calm and undisturbed.

Or because of what happened to her as a girl, she no longer believes that there will be any brightness in her life, let alone these so-called "glory". To live is simply not to die. She also didn't believe the glamorous and glorious future he described. Even though he swore and repeatedly emphasized to her that he already possessed great power.

However, despite this, she didn't poke him in the end. She listened calmly and smilingly as he spoke to herself. It's just because, when he said this to her, she saw a sparkle in his eyes that had not been there for a long time.

She could not bear to refuse, and she ruined his pleasure, and plunged him into the same hopeless agony as before.

Once, the suppressed pain he hid behind the calm surface, no one in the world knows better than her, and can empathize with it better.

So in the end, with a bit of confusion, she was brought out by the sweetheart of her girlhood and came here.

According to him, he will meet someone here, and when the meeting is over, he will take her out of Chang'an and go to a new place. It was the place where all that they were to come.

She never imagined that this would be the case.

Li Meng looked back at Wei Yinniang and hesitated.

"Go! Do you dare to obey my orders? Li Yan tore off a corner of his clothes indiscriminately, pricked his injured leg, and shouted loudly.

Li Meng was stunned, gritted his teeth, but still obeyed the order, turned around and ran, picked Wei Yinniang on his back, avoided the stone rain above his head, and quickly sent her to Li Yan's side.

Li Yan pulled her onto the horse, took her with her horse, and turned away along the rugged ground under the cliff.

His mount is a healthy horse, carrying him and Wei Yinniang, and it has little impact. Although the road was difficult to walk, fortunately, he finally shook off the pursuers behind him and entered a quiet valley.

"Your Highness, watch the road! This way! ”

Li Yan followed Li Meng's guidance in front of him and avoided a swamp full of weeds. Just as he had been able to catch his breath and hasten his horse past a banyan tree, he suddenly sank slightly under him, looked down, and found that one of his mount's hind legs had sunk into the ground.

It's a very ordinary-looking wasteland covered with gravel.

Just when he realized that something was wrong and wanted to drive the horse to flee quickly, it was too late, and the ground, which was only a few feet away from the trunk of the banyan tree, swelled slightly, and the horse's hooves sank.

His mount began to struggle, trying to get to his feet, but the more it did, the faster it sank.

In a few breaths, the horse's hind legs sank into the knees.

Wei Yinniang, who was sitting in front of him, couldn't keep her balance, and with a scream, the person fell off the horse, and her feet and knees disappeared.

Li Meng and several entourages who followed were shocked, and quickly came to the banyan tree, and a few people tried to step and slowly leaned in.

"Your Highness, don't move!"

Li Meng took off his coat, took one head, and threw the other head towards Li Yan.

"Grab it! Before you get into it, we'll pull you out! ”

Li Yan was still sitting on horseback at this time. He sank into the mud with only his feet. He caught the clothes thrown at him with one hand, clutched them tightly, and then reached out to Wei Yinniang, who had fallen off the horse, with the other hand, wanting to take her out as well.

"It's too late! They're coming! Two people are too heavy to pull up! ”

Li Yan had already grabbed Wei Yinniang's hand, tried it, and found that it was really impossible to bring her out like this. With the exertion, not only was it useless, but he made himself sink a little more with the horses under him.

"Please consider yourself and the great cause!" Li Meng yelled.

Li Yan's eyes turned red. He turned his head and looked at Wei Yinniang.

"Your Highness, don't worry about me."

Wei Yinniang's body below the thigh thigh was already in a quagmire. She looked at Li Yan looking into her eyes, and when she said this, her tone was calm, and there was even a faint smile on her lips.

"Go yourself."
