Chapter 21: Pegasus Passes Through Liangzhou
In less than a quarter of an hour after the four of them left, Ming Chongyan and his group of onmyoji rushed to the birch forest. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"It's a step too late, and I told those two boys to run away!" Ming Chongyan glanced coldly at the corpse-strewn birch forest, and said through gritted teeth, a handsome face, distorted a little hideous.
"I can't imagine that even Tie Chenggang is folded here, and I don't know where those Persian barbarians came from, we really looked away!" The middle-aged man known as the second master said with a gloomy look at Tie Chenggang on the ground.
"Second Master, Young Master, Tie Dutong's corpse is still warm, they shouldn't have run far yet!" An old man in a purple robe flew off his horse and reached out to explore Tie Chenggang's corpse, turned to the middle-aged man with a long beard and said to Ming Chongyan.
"That's the best, these two boys must be killed today, otherwise let them escape into the pass, and there will be trouble in the future!" The middle-aged man with a long white beard snorted, and a trace of murderous intent flashed on his face.
"In addition to the official road to Liangzhou, the roads on the left and right sides lead to the two border cities of Luoyan and Pingsha respectively, we just turned back from the official road, those two boys, should not dare to take this road. Ming Chongyan said.
The middle-aged man stroked his long beard, pondered for a while, and said: "Yan'er, our soldiers are divided into two ways, separate heads to intercept and kill, son, you and the three elders go all the way, and the others follow me!"
After saying that, his legs clamped the horse's back, and the sweaty horse under his crotch, like flying, galloped out towards the right road leading to Pingsha City, and the remaining three young military attachés in green robes saw this and followed closely behind Pegasus.
Ming Chongyan raised the whip in his hand, and also chased after him with the three purple-robed old men in the direction of Pingsha City on the left...
.........
In the early morning, the fog shrouded the official road leading to Liangzhou, which was white, making people's vision blurred.
Gotta ~ gotta get ~
With the sound of hurried horses' hooves, three tall and handsome sweaty horses emerged from the white mist, and the red sweat flowing down from the horse's body like blood was particularly dazzling in the mist.
"Yuwen, this sweaty BMW, really lives up to its reputation, both endurance and speed are very amazing, and after running five or six hundred miles in one night, he didn't show any fatigue. A burly young man with a long knife in a sharkskin scabbard on his shoulder stretched out his hand and patted the horse under his crotch, and said to the handsome young man at the head:
"Of course, this sweaty BMW is a good horse, and it can travel thousands of miles in a day and 800 or 500 miles at night, but it is just a piece of cake for them. His left hand gently stroked the neck of the sweaty BMW, and a chuckle flew up on Yuwen Chenyi's face.
Xiao Wenfeng smiled and said: "With these sweaty BMWs, those despicable villains, even if they want to, they can't catch up, it is estimated that they would never have dreamed that we would still take the official road to Liangzhou City." ”
"You're so smart that you would have thought of taking a circle down the road and then turning back down the road. Wu Lan was also convinced, and smiled at Yu Wenchen, although her Tang dialect was half-baked, her voice was crisp and pleasant.
Yuwen Chenyi shook his head and said: "This is not a clever strategy, they will soon find out, we must move forward at full speed non-stop, only when we enter Liangzhou and enter the customs, can we be regarded as truly out of danger." ”
"You're right, let's go quickly, we can't beat those few people in purple robes!" Yue Lingxi sat on the saddle behind Wu Lan and said softly, her beautiful face looming under the black cloak.
Although Yuwen Chenyi has been with Yue Lingxi for a very short time, she also knows that this girl is clever and calm, and when she says this at the moment, she must also be extremely jealous of those few onmyoji in purple robes.
Nodding and smiling at the moment, the four of them rode three times, and galloped again, along the Hexi Corridor, through Suzhou, under Ganzhou, and straight to Liangzhou.
At this time, it was less than a hundred miles away from Liangzhou City, and the traveler caravan on the road was bustling more, and the four of them rode forward, and galloped forward for more than half an hour, and Liangzhou City finally appeared in front of them.
As the northwest town of the Tang Empire, Liangzhou City is the only big city outside the fortress into the Guan, the city wall is tall and majestic, the momentum is magnificent, the streets and alleys of the city are criss-crossed, the traffic is busy, merchants and foreign businessmen from all over the country are gathered here, so the prosperity is abnormal.
As soon as the four of them approached the city gate, they saw that there were soldiers guarding the city who were checking the merchants entering the city, and there were three or four middle-aged men wearing official robes standing in the middle.
"Sure enough, it's Onmyoji again!"
Yuwen Chenyi snorted coldly in his heart, strangled the horse's head, and frowned.
Although Xiao Wenfeng was not as careful as Yuwen Chenyi, when he saw him holding the horse's head, he also knew that there was a situation, so he approached his side and asked in a low voice, "Yuwen, what's the situation?"
Wu Lan also rode up with Yue Lingxi, Yuwen Chenyi told the three of them about the situation, and the three of them were shocked, it seems that Ming Chongyan and his group had already taken measures to prevent them from escaping to Liangzhou City, and sent people to guard the city gate to intercept them.
Xiao Wenfeng's face sank and said: "Blocking and chasing, this group of despicable villains, it's really calculating, it seems that if they don't kill us, they will never give up!"
Wu Lan had learned the power of the Onmyoji in last night's battle, and when she heard that there was an Onmyoji guarding the city gate, she said quite worriedly: "What should I do now, except for the Moon Spirit Priest, the three of us can't beat these magicians in your country!"
Yuwen Chenyi heard her call the onmyoji a magician, and couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart, but then he was diluted by the roadblocks in front of him, and at this time, he only heard the sound of camel bells behind him, the carriages and horses were sparkling, and a huge caravan full of goods came over.
Looking at this caravan, Yuwen Chenyi had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly had a plan in his heart, lowered his voice, and said to the three of them: "We follow the caravan, act at the opportunity, and if we are discovered, we will rush into the city!"
Yue Lingxi's beautiful eyes wandered, and she glanced up at the caravan composed of hundreds of camels and horses and dozens of carriages, smiled and said, "Good idea, you guys are in front, I'll cut it off!"
Yuwen Chenyi faced her head-on, and his heart suddenly jumped non-stop, although he had seen her peerless beauty when he fought with Tie Chenggang and his gang in the forest last night, but it was at night, and she was in danger.
Like now, I can see it very clearly beside me, but I see that she has a delicate face, condensed jade skin, white and tender, and a pair of watery eyes, looking at herself.
Especially when she spoke, she blew like an orchid, and a burst of fragrance was sent over, and her heart suddenly shook, he was more than sixteen years old, and his love had been opened, seeing such a beautiful and moving girl, how could he not be ape-like.
Yuwen Chenyi's face turned red, and he hurriedly turned his head away, and secretly said in his heart: The female color is really amazing!
Where did Yue Lingxi want to get the thoughts in his heart, seeing that his originally fair and beautiful face suddenly turned red, and thought that he was not feeling well, he stretched out a pair of soft and smooth jade hands, held his hands, and said, "Where are you uncomfortable, I will use a spell to treat you." ”
Her heart is as pure as water, she is not delicate and pretentious, and after the battle with the two of them last night to get rid of Tie Chenggang and Cheng Feng, she has already regarded the two as her comrades-in-arms on her side, and she does not shy away from suspicion.
In this way, Yuwen Chenyi's face turned even redder, and he was embarrassed, and he quickly broke free of his hands, pointed towards the caravan, and said, "They are going to enter the city, let's follow quickly!"
The soldiers defending the city and several onmyoji were checking the caravan, when they suddenly heard the sound of a galloping horse in front of them, and three sweaty and bloody horses flew over with four hooves, slashing through the caravan between the camels and horses, and there was a burst of dust.
Several onmyoji reacted quickly, and immediately saw the four people on the horse, and they all chased after them with light body techniques, but the foot strength of the sweaty BMW was too fast to catch up at all.
The leader shouted, "Leave it for me!"
A spell shot out of his sleeve like lightning, and he flew straight at the last sweaty horse, which was riding two people in black cloaks, so the speed was relatively slow.
The talisman paper in his hand flew out very fast, and in a flash of lightning, it had already flown to the horse's hind feet, which was his immobilization spell, as long as it was stained with the horse's legs, you would be handsome and good, and you would not want to move your steps for half a minute.
Unexpectedly, the person behind him seemed to have eyes behind him, suddenly turned his head, raised his hand, and a cold light swirled out, and as soon as the rune paper came into contact with it, it was immediately shattered.
After the cold light shredded the rune paper, it didn't stop at all, and as the man on horseback waved, it flew back upside down like a laser movie, and after the man withdrew the cold light, the sweat and blood BMW had already carried the two of them away.
Several onmyoji flew in chase, where could they run past the foot strength of the sweaty BMW, and in just a few breaths, the centaurs had long disappeared, so they had to go back in a huff.
The longitudinal horse enters the city, the four people dare not stay, and the horse continues to move forward, the city of Liangzhou is very large, the roads in the city extend in all directions, there are four city gates in the southeast and northwest, in addition to the west gate, the other three city gates lead to different big cities in the pass respectively.
The two rode on horses and talked as they walked, and Xiao Wenfeng asked Yuwen Chenyi, "Yuwen, where should we go?"
Yuwen Chenyi thoughtfully glanced at Yue Lingxi and Wu Lan behind him, and said in his heart, "Take the east gate, this road leads to Longcheng Taiyuan, and the road from Longcheng to Chang'an, Kyoto is a spacious official road, which is very convenient. ”
Xiao Wenfeng nodded, and the two led Yue Lingxi and Wu Lan out of Liangzhou City non-stop.
