107. Galloping north of Xinjiang
At this time, the Yue army had rushed to the princess's sedan chair, and most of the Tang troops were struggling to resist and fleeing in all directions, leaving only a small number of dead soldiers to guard.
There are still hundreds of loyal soldiers around the Heavenly Demon, but they are far away from the princess, and the disparity between the strength of the enemy and us is too great, so they are really unable to help Ouyang Qing.
Seeing that the Yue clan army was attacking with all their might, surrounding the princess sedan chair, and attacking and killing. In a moment, countless soldiers and corpses were on the spot, and the palace maids and eunuchs next to the princess's sedan chair were also arrested one by one. Some people saw that the general trend had gone, and ran in all directions, and for a while people turned over on their backs, and there was chaos.
The sergeant of the Yue clan galloped on his horse and galloped towards the princess's sedan chair.
The general at the head had a cruel smile on his face, but he had bad intentions in his heart.
Ouyang Qing saw that the princess was about to be held hostage and defiled by thieves, and his heart was even more terrified, but he couldn't see the palace maid from a distance, and he was shocked: "What about Xiaoyue, will she hide in the princess's sedan chair?"
At this moment, the situation is tense, as long as you slow down for a while, everything will stop, and in a panic, Ouyang Qingxin said: "It's unbelievable, only to take a risk and go there to have a look."
Ouyang Qing showed his light skills, climbed up the rock like a big bird, followed the mountain rocks, and instantly arrived at the hundred-foot high cliff. He hurriedly untied his pouch, took out the rope, and tied it firmly around his waist. and tied the other end to the tree. Ready, Ouyang Qing let out a loud shout, and actually jumped down from the top of a hundred-foot-high mountain, like a flying general, and pounced on the Yue clan's brave army.
Halfway through, the rope was already exhausted, and suddenly there was a sharp pain in his waist, which stopped the downward trend. Ouyang Qing was so painful that the Venus in front of him burst out, and he knew that it was because his strength had not fully recovered, and he couldn't make a full copy.
He looked down and saw that his body was still about forty feet above the ground, but he was still far from the princess. While he was worried, the Yue's army shouted again and again, still rushing towards the princess's sedan chair one after another.
Ouyang Qing sighed secretly: "If I can have ten percent of the internal strength and directly rush in from the chaotic army, how can I be so embarrassed?" But as soon as he gritted his teeth, he said in his heart: "No, what if Xiaoyue is still hiding in the sedan chair and waiting for me to rescue?"
The Yue Clan Army heard a shout above their heads, and everyone felt strange in their hearts, raised their heads sharply, and suddenly saw Ouyang Qing descending from the sky, falling towards everyone. The soldiers had never heard of such strange things, and they were all stupid for a moment, and they did not know how to resist the obstacles.
Ouyang Qing saw that the Yue Clan's troops were already at his feet, and immediately said "hey", bent his knees, relaxed his ankles, and gently touched the head of a general. The hundreds of catties of force that fell poured down, and the general's skull was cracked on the spot, his brain was splashed, and he died a miserable death.
Ouyang Qing took advantage of the situation to turn, and at this time, the force of his body falling was already much lighter, and he kicked another soldier in the stomach. The man screamed, and his stomach burst and he died. Ouyang Qing took advantage of his strength, and with this foot, he stood firmly beside the sedan chair for dozens of steps.
Ouyang Qing gasped for a while, looked up at the top of the mountain, and said in his heart: "If Lao Tzu's martial arts are all here, it will not be easy to go up and down from here." Fortunately, I brought a rope today, otherwise I really wouldn't have been able to save people. It's just that I don't know how to retreat later?" Just as he was thinking, a Yue clan general shouted: "Rush up and kill him" Countless people suddenly surrounded him.
Seeing that the other party did not dare to release the arrow, for fear of shooting the princess to death, Ouyang Qing felt a little relieved, snatched a spear, danced so much that the water could not be splashed, suppressed the opponent's momentum for a while, and slowly advanced towards the princess's sedan chair.
A few feet before the sedan chair, Ouyang Qing shouted loudly: "Xiaoyue, are you inside?"
At this moment, a Yue clan general rushed in on horseback. When he saw that everyone couldn't help the general, he personally raised his sword to fight. He roared wildly, raised his knife and slashed at Ouyang Qing's back. Ouyang Qing shouted: "Good time" with a little feet, jumped up high, dodged the big knife that was chopping, and then kicked the man in the chest, kicking him off the horse.
Ouyang Qing sat on the horse and rushed straight to the princess's sedan chair. At this time, all the guards had died alone, leaving only a lonely palanquin in the chaotic army. Ouyang Qing clamped his legs, bent sideways, and opened the sedan curtain.
Suddenly, a dagger stabbed in the face. Ouyang Qing snatched it with his hand, and his heart sank: "Could it be that this is the trap of the Yue Clan?" and he was about to raise his palm and wave it. Listening to the woman's coquettish voice, Ouyang Qing didn't hold his palm, and raised his eyes to look, it was Xiaoyue.
Ouyang Qing hurriedly let go of Xiao Yue's wrist and said in a low voice: "The gangsters outside are besieging, we have to think of a breakthrough" But he saw Xiao Yue with a pair of clear phoenix eyes, looking at himself, his eyes were full of trust.
Ouyang Qing raised his head and was about to gallop on his horse, but saw that the sedan chair was crowded with soldiers, densely packed with people.
Many soldiers raised their bows against the sedan chairs.
Ouyang Qing panicked: "The army has already been surrounded, how can this be good?" At present, thousands of troops are around, as long as one is not careful, the flesh and bones will be muddy. He is usually resourceful, but there is nothing he can do at this time.
Suddenly, I heard Xiaoyue say: "They think I am a princess and want to hold us hostage, so they won't kill us." Brother Ouyang, you leave me behind and go by yourself. ”
Ouyang Qing smiled slightly: "With me here, who can take you away?"
Xiao Yue stared at Ouyang Qing's eyes, stared silently for a long time, and exclaimed: "You are not Mr. Gong Qi, you are really Brother Ouyang"
Ouyang Qing nodded, took Xiao Yue in his arms, and said in a low voice: "Xiao Yue, don't be afraid"
Ouyang Qing pondered: "These people are deeply afraid of hurting the princess when they do it, so they must have a lot of scruples and throw a mouse. We may have a chance to break through. Holding Satsuki in his hands, he suddenly jumped off his horse and rushed into the enemy's ranks.
Xiao Yue shouted: "Brother Ouyang, you don't care about me, you go by yourself" Ouyang Qing was willing to leave her, hugged Xiao Yue tightly with his left hand, kicked his legs in a row, and the spear in his right hand suddenly came out.
If you escape on horseback, it will naturally be easier to fight your way out of the encirclement, but if the other party sees that he has escaped and shoots arrows, he will definitely die.
At present, it is a safer way to kill the enemy on foot, but as long as there is the slightest negligence, it will kill you on the spot, and the end will be dangerous.
Xiao Yue couldn't see the situation, but she also knew that Ouyang Qing was risking death to save her, thinking that if she hadn't come to Xijiang willfully, there would never be today's situation, she couldn't help but regret and hate, and shouted: "Brother Ouyang, don't worry about me, go fast alone."
At that moment, something hot splashed on her face. She hurriedly stretched out her head to look, but saw that Ouyang Qing's back was dripping with blood, and he had been stabbed with a spear, and the blood was flowing from behind.
Xiao Yue was taken aback, her heart was full of pity, and she said, "You bleed" Ouyang Qing didn't answer, sweat and blood kept dripping.
Xiao Yue looked up and saw Ouyang Qing's eyes blazing into the distance. Xiao Yue followed his gaze, but saw a dozen or so tall monks, with hideous expressions on their faces, waving scimitars in both hands, walking towards the two of them.
It turned out that the other party's generals knew that if they shot Ouyang Qing with arrows, they would inevitably kill the princess together, but if they didn't release arrows, they couldn't leave Ouyang Qing, so they sent strong martial arts players to intercept and kill.
Ouyang Qingxin said: "These monks seem to have mediocre martial arts, but I haven't fully recovered yet, so be careful." He looked up from afar, and saw that the mountains were full of Yue's army, and the 8,000 soldiers and horses who were guarding the marriage did not know where they had gone. At present, the only way to break out of the encirclement is to save Satsuki.
The dozen or so monks walked forward, raised their knives sharply, and slashed at Ouyang Qing.
The hands of this group of monks are all scimitars, which are the blades used by the samurai of the Great Food Country, the blade is curved to the extreme, like an arc, the distance between attack and defense when the knife is out is very short, and the sword light is waving, it can be said that the breath between the opponent can be heard, and the moves are naturally extremely vicious.
Ouyang Qing saw that the monk's knife was fierce and vicious, and as soon as he made a move, he slashed straight to his top door, and hurriedly raised his spear to block it. With a snort, the blade flashed, and Deng cut off Ouyang Qing's sleeve.
Seeing that another few knives were coming, Ouyang Qing hurriedly retreated. The monks have surrounded him, and at this moment he is holding Xiao Yue with his left hand, leaving only his right hand to resist the enemy, and his skills are greatly reduced, and the situation is quite bad.
Seeing that Ouyang Qing was under siege, Xiao Yue almost cried, and said in a low voice: "You go quickly, with your martial arts, one person will definitely be able to kill him." They think I'm a princess and won't embarrass me."
Ouyang Qing shook his head and said, "As long as I am alive, I will not abandon you." I'm going to get you back."
Suddenly, a monk roared and rushed with a knife. Although Ouyang Qing's internal strength was damaged, his martial arts knowledge was still there, and he stretched out his foot and kicked it, hitting the monk in the cheek, and with a backhand blow, the spear hit out, and it was hitting the head of another monk. The two monks fell to the ground, both with broken neck bones, and they were already killed.
At this time, I saw a monk waving a knife and rushing, three knives on the top and three knives on the bottom, the knife was wide open and closed, and the technique was extremely fierce. But Ouyang Qing saw at a glance that this person's knife momentum was too big, and every time he swung the knife over his shoulder, a huge gap was exposed in his chest, and he immediately smiled slightly, with his luck on his shoulder, taking advantage of the gap between the monk's knife, he shouted "hey", the spear blocked the others, and his feet exerted his strength to hit the monk. The monk couldn't dodge, and was hit by him, the scimitar was raised in the air, but the ribs in his chest were broken by Ouyang Qingshen's shoulder, and he vomited blood and died.
Xiao Yue saw the tragic situation of the monk rolling his eyes and vomiting blood to death in an instant, and couldn't help but scream.
Ouyang Qing was in a hurry to escape for his life at this time, and he didn't have time to pay attention to whether Xiao Yue was afraid or not. He rushed out, only to see people chasing him everywhere, and for a moment he didn't know where to flee.
In the midst of his troubles, several monks were already running, wanting to kill him while he was hesitating.
Ouyang Qing waved the spear in his hand, and he really had the power of ten thousand people, leaving no chance to take advantage of.
At this moment, an old monk walked slowly, pushed through the crowd, and pointed to Ouyang Qing's heart. This finger was full of strength, and instantly grabbed a foot away from Ouyang Qing's body. The surrounding knives and guns blocked Ouyang Qing's way, and the spears could not be saved.
Ouyang Qing lacked one hand to defend against the enemy, and for a while there was nothing to do, he panicked in his heart, his right hand shook off the spear, retracted as quickly as lightning, grabbed the fingers of the old monk, flipped his wrist, and made a crisp sound of "pop", breaking the opponent's phalanges.
That old monk seems to be the leader of all the famous monks, and his martial arts are quite successful, and he has already calculated that Ouyang Qing has no way to retreat. Unexpectedly, the other party threw down the spear, and the shot was so swift that one accidentally broke the finger bone.
Ouyang Qing escaped the difficulty, breathed a long sigh of relief, his movements slowed down slightly, and the monks raised their knives again, and slashed down at his back. Xiao Yue lay in Ouyang Qing's arms, seeing that the situation was critical, and exclaimed: "Be careful" Ouyang Qing was startled, at this time, there was no weapon to resist, so he had to jump forward hard, twist his waist and turn over, his back almost touched the ground, and then he dodged the swords that came from behind.
At this moment, Ouyang Qing suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest, as if he had been stabbed by someone. He rolled over, but he could barely stand on his feet, his eyes were black, and his legs were a little weak.
Ouyang Qing knew that although most of the sword wounds on his chest were already good, he twisted his body like this just now, and there were too many movements, the scab shell fell off, and the wound was broken again. Looking down, I saw blood oozing out, and the front of my chest was all blood-red, and Xiaoyue was also stained with a lot of blood.
Several monks saw him stumbling slightly, saw that it was cheap, and attacked again. Ouyang Qing snatched the blade from the corpse's hand, turned to face the monks, and rolled down with a "hey". I only heard the sound of screams incessantly, and the feet of several monks had been cut off by him, and they all fell to the ground. Satsuki was held in his arms, and although her head and face were protected by her sleeves, she still saw the cruel scene in front of her from the gap, screamed, and hurriedly closed her eyes.
Ouyang Qing's chest was bleeding nonstop, and his physical strength was also lost with the blood, and he was short of breath. He heard the sound of killing coming from behind, and he didn't know how many soldiers and horses were coming, and said in his heart: "If I don't think of a plan, I'm afraid that I will die here today." ”
Looking around, I saw several carts parked next to the princess's sedan chair, and remembered that I knew that they were full of gold, silver and jewelry, which were supposed to be given to Northern Xinjiang. But at this time, the eunuch and the palace maid had fled without a trace, and several carts were left unattended and parked aside.
Ouyang Qing had an idea, immediately picked up Xiaoyue, and rushed towards those cars. The monks hurriedly chased after him, but saw Ouyang Qing kick the cart over, raise his knife to cut through the wooden box, and suddenly the golden light flashed on the ground, the jewelry was dazzling, and thousands of taels of gold rolled to the ground along with various rare treasures.
Countless jade antiques are still tumbling out of the box. The monks were not soldiers in the army, and they intercepted them all for money, and when they saw countless treasures, they were overjoyed, and no matter whether Ouyang Qing escaped or not, they went underground to arrest them.
Ouyang Qing shouted luckily: "The king has an order, everyone has a share in the jewelry, you don't want to rob it alone" He deliberately provoked the rebels, shouted with words, and the voice spread far away. The rebel soldiers did not know who was speaking, but when they heard that there was gold, silver and jewels to be divided, they rushed forward, and when they saw that there was really countless gold and silver scattered underground, they were all overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward to snatch it.
Ouyang Qing saw that everyone was red-eyed, and took advantage of the situation to shout: "There are not many golden treasures, don't rob them, leave a little for the people behind" When the sergeant behind heard this, he was even more scrambling, you snatched me up, and naturally no one came to chase and kill Lu Yun.
Ouyang Qing took advantage of the chaos to escape, and saw from a distance that everyone was fighting endlessly, but there were also many troops with strict military discipline and were reining in the chaos.
Ouyang Qing knew that this plan could not be delayed for too long, so with a thought, he picked up the spear from the ground and threw it with a "whoosh", and the spear flew towards the general who was riding on the horse.
The general was shouting and cursing to himself, when suddenly the spear flew, and one could not dodge, and he dismounted. Some of them took the opportunity to rush into the crowd and loot the jewels, while others were furious, thinking that other soldiers had murdered their commanders, so they took out their swords and slaughtered the soldiers who were picking up the jewels.
The sergeants were already suspicious of each other, and their eyes were red at each other's treasures, and when they saw someone showing their blades, they were even more furious, and they raised their swords to kill each other. Suddenly the two sides fought, and the army was in disarray.
Ouyang Qing took advantage of the chaos, hurriedly hugged Xiao Yue, and rushed out of the crowd. When he saw some lone soldiers on horseback, he immediately rushed with his sword raised, and he was about to take the horse and flee.
The little soldier shouted, "It's the princess," and before he could finish speaking, he was hacked to death. Ouyang Qing picked up Xiaoyue, turned over on his horse, and fled towards the inside of the volcano, secretly glad in his heart: "Fortunately, I killed it first just now, otherwise this army and horses would never be able to mess up." ”
rushed out of a hundred feet, and suddenly heard the sound of killing behind him. Ouyang Qing looked back and saw that there was a large group of people in the black ground, running towards him.
It seems that the Yue's army is strictly disciplined, and although it is disrupted, it will be reorganized in a moment. Ouyang Qing looked from afar, only to see that a large number of other people blocked the road ahead, and it turned out to be a flanking attack. Looking to the left again, there were also soldiers and horses rushing towards me.
Seeing that the enemy army was surrounded by three sides, it was shaped like a horse's hoove, and surrounded his horse in the core. Ouyang Qing panicked in his heart: "Oh no, where should I go at this moment?" Seeing that there was a gap in the direction of his right, he hurriedly didn't have time to think about it, so he had to gallop and run towards no one.
Not far away, there was only a mess of rocks, and the horses could no longer walk. The pursuers had already abandoned their horses and chased after them on foot. Ouyang Qing had no choice but to dismount, hugged Xiaoyue in his arms, and ran desperately.
Although his strength was exhausted, his chest wound was rebroken, and the pain was incomparable, but only one percent of his light work was left, and it was beyond the reach of ordinary sergeants. The road became narrower and narrower, and finally it became a lonely road.
Ouyang Qing knew that there must be a mountain ahead, but he had nothing to do, so he could only go down.
After walking for a few more miles, there was no road ahead, Ouyang Qing looked over and suddenly saw a bare mountain peak.
Seeing that the rock wall was towering into the clouds, hundreds of feet high, Xiao Yue couldn't help but choke, and sighed coquettishly: "There is no way to retreat, there are chasing soldiers behind, but what should I do?" Ouyang Qing looked back, and saw that the chasing soldiers kept chasing, and he couldn't wait any longer at this moment, so he immediately said: "Life and death are fate." Let's climb up."
Xiao Yue looked at the towering rock wall, and she was powerless to restrain the chicken, and she didn't know how to climb it. Just as she was thinking, someone suddenly grabbed her shoulders and took her into her arms, and she couldn't help but be startled and quickly took a step back.
Ouyang Qing said: "I'm going up, come over quickly." Xiao Yue was stunned, not knowing what he wanted to do, and suddenly saw Ouyang Qing untie the belt of his waist, open his arms and say, "Come on." I'll tie you in my arms, otherwise how can I go up?"
Xiao Yue's face flushed, knowing that he was going to hug him, and snorted, "You...... It's on purpose, right?"
Ouyang Qing saw that the enemy army was already chasing after him, and he really couldn't do it, so he delayed. He reached over, gently pulled Satsuki in front of him, followed her down, hugged her, and tied the two tightly together with his belt. Although Xiao Yue had already secretly agreed, countless outsiders looked around, and the two were so close to each other, and they still blushed for a while.
Ouyang Qing firmly tied Xiao Yue in front of him and stood up. His whole body has protected Xiao Yue's petite body, and when he climbed the peak for a while, he was hit by an arrow, which could only hurt his flesh and skin at most, but he could never hurt Xiao Yue in the slightest.
Ouyang Qing said in a low voice: "This may be more tiring, you endure for a while, and when you get to a safe place, I will untie my clothes, and you can rest well." ”
Xiao Yue shook her head and said, "They will shoot you with arrows." If you carry me outside, they will not dare to shoot arrows. ”
Ouyang Qing smiled slightly, did not answer, but hugged Xiao Yue tightly.
Xiao Yue leaned on Ouyang Qing's arms, her cheek was pressed against his chest, she only felt that Ouyang Qing's body was indescribably warm, although she was in danger at the moment, her face was still red with shame, and her body somehow had no strength, it was soft, and she could only lean against Ouyang Qing's chest.
Ouyang Qing saw that the enemy army was already approaching, if the opponent had not been able to climb out of the range of the bow and arrow when he reached the bottom of the mountain, it would be a dead end. At this time, he was at a life-and-death juncture, and he had no time to take care of Xiaoyue's daughter's thoughts. He shouted loudly, threw himself on the rock, and crawled like a fly with his hands and feet, and in an instant he climbed up more than ten feet.
When the Yue clan army saw him fleeing, they shouted one after another: "Release the arrows and release the arrows" Countless bows and arrows flew in, some shot on the rock wall in the distance, and some landed beside Ouyang Qing, which can be said to be dangerous.
Ouyang Qingxin said: "As long as you climb ten zhang more, they will shoot me and I have to work harder" He has strong internal strength, and he is not tired of ordinary Mercedes ten miles, but at this moment his qi and blood are weak, and he climbs the rock, and it is easy to crack the stone and open the monument as easily as a finger, but he is bruised and bruised, and the more he climbs, the more painful it is.
Just as he was working hard, an arrow came from the ground, and Ouyang Qing couldn't help but snort. Xiao Yue exclaimed, "What's wrong? You were hit by an arrow?"
Ouyang Qing shook his head and said, "I'm fine" He gritted his teeth and struggled to climb up, but beads of sweat flowed from his forehead, dripping on Xiao Yue's face, and the blood on his chest was even more oozing.
Xiao Yue was soaked in Ouyang Qing's blood, and couldn't help but exhale softly. Ouyang Qing was afraid that she would also be hit by an arrow, so he hurriedly looked down, and it happened that the princess also looked at him, and her eyes met in an instant.
At this moment, the two looked at each other, and their breathing could be heard. Xiao Yue saw Ouyang Qing's eyes blazing, looking at herself, she was ashamed, and hurriedly lowered her head. Ouyang Qing's chest was painful, what kind of love between men and women had long been thrown out of the clouds, and seeing that Xiaoyue was intact, he didn't ask any more questions, and climbed up by himself.
Xiao Yue saw that Ouyang Qing was concentrating on rock climbing, so she raised her head again. She stared at Ouyang Qing's face and said in her heart: "Brother Ouyang is so desperate to save me, marry him, and you will definitely be happy in this life and this life." Seeing that Ouyang Qing was sweating like rain, and there was blood left on his chest, he was very distressed, so he wanted to take out a handkerchief and wipe it for him.
Ouyang Qing used all his strength and crawled for a while. The arrows were still raining down, but they were exhausted when they approached, and they landed diagonally to the side. Even if some arrows hit Ouyang Qing, they fell softly and did not enter the flesh. It seems that the two have climbed high, and everything is safe. After climbing for a while, he suddenly saw a small platform above, and the two of them should rest for a while. Ouyang Qing struggled, climbed with a roll, and then untied his body and let Xiaoyue down.
Ouyang Qing was out of breath, knelt on one knee, barely straightened up, and said, "This little way, if there is no injury, I will come up in a few steps, why be so embarrassed?"
Xiao Yue smiled, her heart was sweet, and she was about to answer his words, when she suddenly saw two arrows stuck in Ouyang Qing's back, she couldn't help but scream, and said, "You...... How did you get injured like this" It turned out that Ouyang Qing was exhausted when he was climbing, and he was unable to move, so he was hit by two arrows.
Xiao Yue saw that the arrow was very deep into the flesh, only half of the shaft of the arrow was exposed, if it was not pulled out, the wound would definitely become inflamed, and then it would fester, and she was afraid of her life.
Ouyang Qing adjusted his breath and said slowly: "I'm as healthy as an ox, and a few bows and arrows won't die, don't worry." ”
At that moment, he reached behind his back, broke the shaft of the arrow, and threw it on the ground, but the extremely sharp arrow was still clamped into the flesh.
Xiao Yue was shocked in her heart, and hurriedly said: "If this can't be done, turn around quickly, let me see" said and was about to walk.
Ouyang Qing knew that she was going to treat her injuries, so she hurriedly took a step back and said, "No, no, it's not appropriate to make your hands full of blood." I am weak now, it is the cause of the ruptured chest trauma, and it will be enough to rest for a few days, and the arrow in the back, the skin trauma is just that. After a few days, I will recover my strength, and then I will pull it out by myself. ”
Satsuki is benevolent by nature and has been planning for others since she was a child. Seeing that Ouyang Qing was injured for herself, if she wanted to turn a blind eye, I am afraid it would be very difficult. But if he really wants to treat his injury, he has never done it before, but he is afraid that he will hurt Ouyang Qing.
She thought a few times in a row, and for a moment she didn't know what to do.
Ouyang Qing saw that she was worried for a while, worried for a while, and immediately said: "Xiaoyue rest for a while, and we will climb to the top of the cliff later, you have to save some physical strength first." ”
Xiao Yue said "um" and finally sat down, with a very hesitant look on her face.
Although Ouyang Qing cared about Xiaoyue, at this moment of life and death, he had no time to save it. He stood beside the platform and looked down, only to see that there were clouds and mist below, and the face of the Yue Clan Sergeant was no longer clear. It seems that his climb has reached a height of 100 zhang, this cliff is very steep, ordinary soldiers cannot climb it, and it should be safe for a while. Thinking of this, Ouyang Qing felt a little relieved, so he also sat down on the ground and closed his eyes to recuperate.
