Chapter 884: Pursuing Alone
Wu Xian fell to the ground to protect Xu Shuang, looking at the cold murderous aura in the assassin's eyes, both of them looked terrified. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The assassin is in the middle of now, and life and death are in the present......
"Roar-" The cold knife fell for a moment, and suddenly a dragon roared and struck in the air--The fourth type of thunder dragon of the "Nine Transformations of the Divine Dragon" broke through the wind, and the dragon sword qi turned into a sharp blade, and the golden light flashed under the night, piercing the assassin's chest.
The Tsing Yi assassin couldn't react, and the moment he dropped the knife, he screamed, and was killed by the "Dragon Sword" on the spot, and Xu Shuang and Wu Xian escaped......
"Hey, are you all right?" In the direction of the camp, sure enough, Xiao Tian and others chased after him, and it was Xiao Tian who used the "killing sword" to subdue the assassin just now, and only then did he save the lives of the two.
Wu Xian looked back, smiled and beckoned: "Senior Sister Li, Brother Xiao, we are here-"
Xu Shuang learned that it was Xiao Tian who saved him, and he couldn't help but feel conflicted in his heart......
Xiao Tian, Su Jia, Tang Zhan, Zheng Yuhua and others rushed to the scene almost at the same time - Xiao Tian and the others were chasing the fugitive assassins, while Zheng Yuhua took Taotao to find Xu Shuang and Wu Xian, who had not yet returned to the camp at night. Knowing the thrilling scene just now, Xu Shuang and Wu Xian almost lost their lives, and everyone was still terrified......
"Xiaoshuang, Wu Xian, it's okay if you're okay, it's really dangerous just now......" Su Jia almost cried out in fright when she learned about the situation of the two, and kept holding Xu Shuang's hand and comforted her tightly.
"Senior Sister Yiyao, I'm fine......" Xu Shuang was also trembling on the side, trying to calm down his emotions while not worrying Su Jia and the others.
"It was Brother Xiao who saved us just now-" Wu Xian stood up and said gratefully to Xiao Tian, "Thank you, Brother Xiao, if it wasn't for you just now, Xiaoshuang and I might really ......"
Xiao Tian smiled slightly, and said calmly: "It's okay, you are all friends of Jia'er, I won't let you be in danger...... But the next time you want to leave the camp, you have to let me know, if it weren't for the night attack tonight, we don't know where you two went, so I'm worried......"
"Hmm......" Wu Xian nodded in agreement, feeling that Xiao Tian was like his brother, and his tone was friendly and heartwarming.
Xu Shuang listened to it on the side, and his heart was also entangled-he hated Xiao Tian, but he saved himself and Wu Xian without hesitation...... And as a general of the army, he should save himself because he and others are messengers who help, and he must not let himself and others be in danger, but Xiao Tian didn't say that, he desperately saved himself and Wu Xian because he regarded himself and Wu Xian as friends...... Unconsciously, Xu Shuang's opinion of Xiao Tian's personality has changed slightly......
But even so, Xu Shuang still rejected him a little from the bottom of his heart, so that when Xiao Tian took the initiative to comfort himself on the side, he just spoke coldly. Xiao Tian also saw it, but his expression did not change, he knew Xu Shuang's "opinion" of himself, and he felt that he still needed time to prove it, until one day Xu Shuang really accepted himself......
"General Xiao, Zheng is grateful for saving his fellow disciples this time-" Zheng Yuhua saw Xiao Tian's crisis and said with a salute, "Because of Zheng's negligence, letting the junior brothers and sisters of the entourage leave the camp alone, almost causing a catastrophe......"
Xiao Tian was open-minded, and greeted him with a smile: "It's okay, I just came to the barracks, there are always freshness and discomfort, just pay attention next time......"
Everyone said that Tang Zhan also arrived in a hurry with his men and horses, and Lu Jing and Murong Ying saw that the crisis in the camp was temporarily resolved, and they also chased after them......
"These guys, with extraordinary skills, escaped quite quickly......" In addition to the two assassins who were solved in the camp, Tang Zhan led the soldiers guarding the camp, but he also failed to subdue the enemy, and seeing the assassins fleeing, Tang Zhan was very unwilling in his heart.
"They took away the 'Tongguan Border Defense Map', and took advantage of my negligence to ......" Xiao Tian remembered the scene just now, and said faintly in his heart.
"What did you say, the map was stolen?" Tang Zhan listened and said nervously, "This is not good, that map is the key thing for our army to attack, if it is lost, the strategic plan will be confused and there is no way to start——"
"Moreover, the purpose of these people attacking our camp at night was to rush to the 'Tongguan Border Defense Map' from the very beginning......," Lu Jing looked cautious and said faintly uneasy, "This is obviously a carefully arranged and well-planned plan! The martial arts are strange, and the officers and men of our army are invincible, and the origin must be not small -- I think the forces behind them must not be simple, and the battle of Tongguan will be a vicious battle......
Looking at the direction in which the assassins fled, Xiao Tian seemed to have made up his mind...... Xiao Tian pulled out a war horse in front of the middle army, and seemed to make a move.
"Ah Tian, what are you going to do?" Su Jia looked at Xiao Tian's actions and asked nervously.
Xiao Tian tied the reins of his horse, and said with a firm look in his eyes: "The 'Tongguan Border Defense Map' is very important to our army's strategy, and we must take it back if we say anything! The enemy has not gone far from the camp, and it is too late to catch up now——"
"That's right, I'll immediately dispatch troops and horses to pursue-" Tang Zhan couldn't swallow this breath either, and said impassionedly.
"No, the army stays in the camp, I'll chase it alone!" Xiao Tian rode on his war horse, made up his mind, and cut the railway.
"What?" Tang Zhan heard this, and asked in exclamation, "Are you crazy?" The enemy is all athletic, not to mention that the sneak attack plan is meticulous, and he must be prepared for our army's pursuit.
"Even so, I'm going to go!-" Xiao Tian's attitude was very resolute, and he said righteously, "It is precisely because it is a trap that the main force cannot act rashly -- tonight's night attack is so big that it cannot be ruled out as a bait to attract our army, Brother Tang Zhan, as the main general, at this time, you should sit in the camp and stabilize the army's morale, so as to prevent future accidents! As for pursuing the enemy, I will be alone-"
"That's right, but ......" Tang Zhan was still not at ease, cast a calm gaze, and said solemnly, "Those guys have strange martial arts, and their skills are not under ordinary masters, and it is already difficult to deal with one of them, Brother Xiao, you go alone, in case you encounter an ambush by many enemies, it will be a danger of trapping the army...... I can trust you, but you have to be careful anyway!"
"Hmm...... Xiao Tian nodded calmly, and then pursued in the direction of the mountains and forests......
Tang Zhan finally agreed, Xiao Tian rode his horse to chase alone, and he took a large army to prepare to return to the camp. However......
In the crowd, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and at some point, in the opposite direction of the troops' return to the camp, a figure rode out - it was Su Jia, who couldn't watch Xiao Tian go into danger alone, and while the troops were going back and forth, Su Jia also rode a war horse to chase after him.
"Miss Su!-" Tang Zhan saw the strange situation, but it was too late to shout loudly.
"Senior Sister Yiyao-" Xu Shuang was even more relieved, and reflexively chased after him on foot.
"Hey, Xiaoshuang!" Wu Xian was afraid that Xu Shuang's impulse would be in danger again, so he chased after him desperately, and Lu Tao followed closely.
"The situation is already chaotic tonight, why are they still so impulsive?" Tang Zhan looked anxious in his eyes, his original plan was all disrupted, in order to prevent no more casualties, he wanted to send someone to recover it, and he couldn't let them take risks again.
"Leave it to me-" At the critical moment, Zheng Yuhua stood aside and stepped forward and said, "General Xiao and the junior sister, just let me chase them, General Tang, you stay in the camp to reorganize the troops and stabilize the morale of the army!"
"Brother Zheng......" Although he is not familiar with it, but in terms of seniority, Tang Zhan also regards Zheng Yuhua as his eldest brother, seeing Zheng Yuhua stand up without hesitation, Tang Zhan felt inexplicably in his heart, nodded and trusted: "Okay, please-"
"Don't worry, I will definitely bring them back safely!" Zheng Yuhua said resolutely and firmly as if he had sworn an oath before the army......
"Driving...... Riding the ...... in the middle of the night, Su Jia rode a war horse and chased in the direction of Xiao Tian, and behind him, Xu Shuang and Wu Xian also chased after them on foot. Chasing the enemy alone, the trap is unpredictable, Su Jia is naturally worried about Xiao Tian's safety, and the people of the Wind Chasing Sect are not worried about Su Jia's lone move......
"Ah Tian, you must not have anything to ......" Su Jia said secretly in her heart while speeding up her ride, "No matter what, I will never let you risk it alone......"
However, the dust was raised on the wasteland, and Xiao Tian was far away alone, long gone. In addition, under the night, the shadows were hazy, and Su Jia was chasing after him, and he couldn't see the road ahead clearly......
"Dada...... "However, on ......the other side, Xiao Tian drove the horse alone and had already rushed to the foot of the mountain.
"Huh-" Xiao Tianlerma stopped at the bottom of the slope, and under the night fog, a dark figure could be vaguely seen on the slope.
Xiao Tian raised his head and looked fixedly, this person was the assassin who attacked the military camp tonight. I saw the Tsing Yi assassin standing on the slope, looking at Xiao Tian, under the nocturnal mask, revealing a contemptuous look, as if he was mocking Xiao Tian.
The corners of Xiao Tian's mouth twitched, he jumped off the horse, looked at the assassin at the top of the slope with calm eyes, and said in his heart: "Hmph, are you tempting me......?"
The Tsing Yi assassin gestured slightly to Xiao Tian's eyes, then turned around and ran into the dark forest.
Xiao Tian straightened the iron sword behind his back, raised his wrists with both hands, and seemed to be ready to face all emergencies. Xiao Tian looked up, then used his light skills to jump up the hill and run towards the jungle where the assassin had disappeared......
The dense roads in the forest, the thorny bushes, and the "crackling" sound of dead branches and fallen leaves under their feet. Xiao Tian ran for a long time in the deep road of the dark forest, but he never ran to the end, it seems that this road is deep and long, and there are many dangers, I don't know what awaits him at the other end of the road.
But Xiao Tian knew in his heart that tonight the enemy attacked the military camp at night, stole the "Tongguan Border Defense Map", and even deliberately lured himself into the jungle after chasing him here--it was obvious that this was a trap, and it was a well-arranged plan for the target...... Judging from the fact that he was chasing after him alone and the enemy was still deliberately waiting in the mountain pass, it seemed that the target of the other party's mastermind was his own ......
"When the night raid saw me coming, they retreated and chased me to the mountain pass, but lured me into the jungle...... Someone is deliberately targeting me, who is it......" Xiao Tian was uncertain in his heart, and secretly doubted......
After running for about a moment, a bright light suddenly appeared in front of him, which seemed to be the end of the jungle tunnel. Xiao Tian's eyes must be determined, he is ready to face all dangers, quickens his pace, and rushes to the exit......
The moment he jumped out of the jungle, Xiao Tian looked at it, and his eyes suddenly opened up - this is a clearing surrounded by forests on all sides, by the moonlight under the gap of dark clouds, the mountains and forests go down at night, only this area is clear and bright; in front of Xiao Tian, there is a high platform arched by a natural rock wall, and the "silver light" spreads out, and it is unobstructed, as if there is the beauty of fairyland...... It's a pity that Xiao Tian came here tonight, unable to enjoy this beautiful artistic conception, and the night wind falling in the forest added a bit of chilling killing opportunity......
Xiao Tian calmed down, jumped on both feet, and jumped straight onto the high platform. Looking at it from the front, he saw that the Tsing Yi assassin who had just seduced him was standing opposite him, holding the "Tongguan Border Defense Map" that he had taken from his camp tonight.
"You brought me here...... Xiao Tian asked calmly in a cold tone, "Who are you, why did you sneak attack my camp tonight and steal the 'Tongguan Border Defense Map', what is the purpose?"
The Tsing Yi assassin did not answer, his eyes full of contempt for Xiao Tian.
"You guys, none of them can speak, can they......" Looking at the assassins tonight, their martial arts were strange and cruel, and their hands were stained with countless blood, but they were silent, Xiao Tian couldn't help but secretly say angrily.
"Finally we met, Canglong Hero...... Suddenly, a cold voice came from the assassin's head - it was on the tree, an old man in his sixties was sitting on the treetop, looking at Xiao Tian with a contemptuous smile, and under the dark moon, he showed a strange expression, which made people feel chilled.
This person is none other than the Spiritual Shadow Sect Leader, Sima Hanyi. And beside him, there was also a handsome man in his twenties, who was Tong Chen, one of the "Three Great Masters of the Western Regions", "Cold Spear".
"Sect Master, tonight's night attack was successful, and the map was successfully obtained!" The Tsing Yi assassin finally said the first sentence, stretched out his hand, and threw the "Tongguan Border Defense Map" in his hand at Sima Hanyi on the treetops.
Sima Hanyi took the map, opened it slightly, and said coldly: "Oops, this is the 'Tongguan Border Defense Map' that the imperial court tried so hard to find a year ago, but I didn't expect it to fall into the hands of Canglong Daxia......"
"It seems that you and the Mengyuan Imperial Court are really in the same group......" Xiao Tian looked at Sima Hanyi's sneering face and asked solemnly, "Who is Your Excellency? Since you are called 'Sect Master', your identity must be extraordinary......
"Ha, I was rude in front of the Canglong Hero, I haven't introduced myself yet, I'm really sorry......" Sima Hanyi seemed to be deliberately "fooling" Xiao Tian, and said jokingly, "The old man's name is Sima Hanyi, and he is the leader of the Western Regions Sect 'Spirit Shadow Sect'......"
"Spirit Shadow Sect ......" Xiao Tian had never heard of this sect, but after seeing the skills of the disciples who were assassins tonight, Xiao Tian knew that it was not unusual.
"Of course, you and other people from the Central Plains, don't hear about the martial arts sect of the Western Regions, you should understand, after all, there are not many well-known celebrities like 'Canglong Hero' in the world......" Sima Hanyi was still deliberately mocking Xiao Tian, and didn't seem to take Xiao Tian in his eyes at all.
"I can see with my own eyes one of the three old-timers in the legend, the descendant of the real 'Canglong Hero', tonight is also worth the trip......" Tong Chen couldn't hold back on the side, did not change his arrogant character, and said bluntly in front of Xiao Tian, "But if you can see the skills of the 'Canglong Hero', I think this time is even more worth ......"
Xiao Tian heard the meaning of provocation, and although he came alone in danger, he still said fearlessly: "Listening to your tone, it seems that you want to fight with me-hmph, you will regret it......"
Sima Hanyi saw it and smiled coldly...... (To be continued.) )
