Chapter 24: The Battle of Tieliang Pass

Xiao Ruoshui drove the carriage and slowly walked to the middle of the people who were circled, and waited slowly, but there was still no expression on his face. The people next to him were already complaining, and kept telling all kinds of reasons to prove their innocence and how important time was to them.

The officers and soldiers next to them did not have a trace of expression, they were used to seeing this kind of scene, they saw it every day, and since Master Gu came, there were more of them every day, so they were unmoved.

Zhao Cheng followed among the people who were not circled, walked forward slowly, he led the horse to the front of a shop, asked the man to feed the horse some food, drink some water, and asked for a breakfast by the way, eating slowly, looking at Xiao Ruoshui and them. He carefully observed the surrounding situation, the person sitting under the big tree in front of the barracks should be the white wolf Gu Rushan, they will be taken there at a point, the restaurant he chose is just about twenty steps opposite the white wolf, and can rescue them as soon as possible, he looked at the city wall, where the flashing haunts should be the archers, he probably estimated that there are about thirty of them, it will take a stick of incense to solve them, this time can shoot about eight hundred arrows, according to the general shooting accuracy, probably around the big tree and the carriage should be about five hundred, the most dangerous should be the archers on the city wall closest to the barracks, a dozen archers in the northwest corner are the deadliest, so it is they who will be dealt with first. He estimated the time and distance of going up the city wall, and slowly held the iron umbrella under his arm. He drank soy milk one by one, ate steamed buns and side dishes, and looked at the white wolf casually. The white wolf didn't notice him, just stared at Xiao Ruoshui and they watched slowly.

The people dispersed quickly, and the officers and soldiers came to the white wolf with the encircled people. Xiao Ruoshui drove the carriage to the back of the line, he was not afraid, but he was afraid that he would hurt the innocent with his hands, so he slowly waited for the white wolf's interrogation after the worst. He looked at the white wolf and asked one by one, he moved forward step by step, and suddenly heard the princess's panting and heartbeat in his ears, he knew that the princess was already nervous at the moment, although she had been soaked and washed with the potion, but the princess was still nervous.

Xiao Ruoshui stopped the carriage, got into the carriage, took the princess's hand, looked at the princess, and said with a firm gaze: "It's okay, I'll go to Shanyang after a while, I'll find Ye Tianshi to cure your illness, you don't have to worry, I will definitely take you home safely." ”

He stretched out his hand and brushed the hair on the princess's forehead, looked into the princess's eyes, and said, "Believe me, you will definitely come home, I promise." After saying that, he put down the princess's hand and looked at the princess. The princess's heart slowly calmed down, she looked at Xiao Ruoshui, and suddenly had a sense of security, a sense of dependence, she smiled, I didn't know what to say, so she kept looking at Xiao Ruoshui.

"Dangdangdang" someone knocked on the carriage, "Come out, Master Gu has something to ask you" The officers and soldiers shouted.

Xiao Ruoshui nodded at the princess, and the princess also nodded, the princess was not nervous at all at this moment, she sat in the carriage and waited quietly for Xiao Ruoshui's return, just like a wife waiting for her husband's return. Xiao Ruoshui turned around and got out of the carriage, led the horse and walked towards Gu Rushan, he walked normally, as if he was going to the market.

Gu Rushan squinted at the young man who was walking towards him, he couldn't see that he looked like that kind of outlaw, but he was always a little uneasy about this young man, how he didn't know how to worry, someone who was circled in front of him had already been taken to the cell, and now he would rather kill three thousand by mistake than miss a single person.

Xiao Ruoshui respectfully handed over the identity degree, and then looked at Gu Rushan with his hands behind his back.

"Ye Juren, where are you going?" Gu Rushan said as he looked at Du Mu.

"My wife was seriously ill and went to Shanyang to ask Dr. Ye Tianshi for treatment. Xiao Ruoshui replied slowly.

"The road is not close, why don't you take the waterway and take the dry road, isn't the waterway faster and more stable?" Gu Rushan stared at Xiao Ruoshui and asked.

"Sizhou is very picturesque, so we wanted to take a break and soothe my wife's mood, which will be very good for her condition. Xiao Ruoshui looked at Gu Rushan with a smile and said.

"That's right, most of the diseases are born from the heart, and when you are in a good mood, you will naturally get better. Gu Rushan said with a smile.

"Then my lord, can we go?" Xiao Ruoshui asked.

"Okay, let's go, have a nice trip. Gu Rushan returned the post and said with a smile.

"Thank you, my lord, that little student will retire. Xiao Ruoshui took the post, made a gesture, and slowly drove the carriage towards the city gate.

Gu Rushan beckoned a subordinate over and whispered a few words. The man hurried up to the tower.

Gu Rushan also slowly walked up to the city tower.

Xiao Ruoshui sat in front of the carriage and drove the carriage towards the east gate. He was very careful with every step of the carriage, and as he saw the east gate getting closer and closer, he didn't mean to rush over, but drove the carriage slowly as usual.

Suddenly, the city gate slowly closed, he understood that Gu Rushan had discovered them, but in order not to fight with him, so as not to hurt himself, he deliberately let them go, and here he could use the ambush soldiers he ambushed.

Xiao Ruoshui turned around and turned into the car, took out an iron umbrella to cover the princess, he opened the bottom of the carriage, an iron box appeared inside, he carried the princess into the iron box, pulled the bottom plate, at this time the arrows rained down on the carriage, hitting the carriage with a straight sound, the carriage was wrapped by Zhao Cheng with an iron plate, so the too soft arrows could not penetrate the carriage. But Xiao Ruoshui didn't dare to go out, first, the princess was unprotected, but he couldn't stop so many arrows.

The arrows stopped, and only one voice was heard saying, "Surrender yourself and cut your hamstrings, or you will die." Gu Rushan's voice was really hard to hear, Xiao Ruoshui wanted to say.

"Xiao Jiu, can we escape?" said the princess as she pulled open the bottom panel and trembled.

"It's okay, I'm here for you, I'll be able to escape, trust me. He looked at the princess and smiled.

"If you don't come out, I'm going to release a rocket, haluha," Gu Rushan said with a smile. Reached out and patted her hand. Pull up the bottom plate.

Xiao Ruoshui got out of the carriage, he couldn't help but come out, he had to block the rocket, otherwise both of them would be burned to death. He held an umbrella in his hand, looked at Gu Rushan, and said with a smile: "This is my consideration, let me think about it, okay?"

Gu Rushan was very patient, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll wait for you to think it through." After saying that, he sat down on the city wall and drank tea.

He was very proud, looking at Xiao Ruoshui like a monkey, like a cat playing tricks on his prey.

Xiao Ruoshui: "I don't understand, how did Master Gu see that I know martial arts, and conclude that I was the one who robbed the princess?"

Gu Rushan smiled proudly, "You walk unhurriedly, your eyes are not flustered, you don't see people in a hurry, you look like a trained character, and the woman in the carriage is breathing and wheezing very chaotic, full of breath, which means that she is not sick, but nervous, when you get off the car, I glanced at the woman in the car, I saw that her shoulders were straight and her back was straight, the corners of her eyebrows were not messy, she must be a virgin, not a married woman, so I concluded that it must be a princess, and you are the one who kidnapped the princess." ”

Xiao Ruoshui clapped his hands and said, "My lord is really good eyesight, and he is not one of the four major guards under King Yan, but can you calculate that you can still catch me now?"

Gu Rushan's face changed greatly, "Shoot this kid to death, look at his hard mouth." With a wave of his hand, the arrow shot at the carriage again, this time it was a rocket, and rushed directly to the carriage, Xiao Ruoshui had a little feet, like a butterfly, the oil umbrella in his hand was opened, and when he turned his hand, the arrows flew outward one after another, and none of the arrows fell on the carriage.

Gu Rushan stood up and said loudly: "Bring the arrows."

He shot an arrow with a bow, and the arrow went straight to the princess's hiding place, Xiao Ruoshui was taken aback, flew up and blocked it, but Gu Rushan's second arrow had already shot towards his heart like a poisonous snake, he hurriedly moved, the oil umbrella danced wildly, blocking the surrounding arrows, but Gu Rushan's arrow power was too large, and it shot through the umbrella and shot directly at Xiao Ruoshui, Xiao Ruoshui turned around, and the arrow shot directly to his left arm. Immediately, blood flowed down his arm.

Xiao Ruoshui stretched out his hand and pulled out the arrow, and shouted loudly: "Despicable villain, you have the ability to shoot your Ninth Master again." ”

Gu Rushan waved his hand, and the arrow rain fell again, but he didn't find that there were a lot fewer arrows, Xiao Ruoshui could already block all the arrows very easily, he was annoyed and angry, and stretched out his hand and shouted: "Give me the arrows."

I only heard a "yes". An arrow was already in his throat.

As soon as he turned around, his men were already in a pulp, and everyone who was standing, and behind him, a man who looked like a profiteer, stood behind him, looked at him with a smile, and said, "Either you die, or he dies, you choose one." ”

Gu Rushan waved his hand, and all the archers stopped. However, most of them have been knocked to the ground by Zhao Cheng, and there are few left.

"Open the door, and let us go, or you'll die." The profiteer still looked at him with a smile and said, but his hands were not idle, and he had already pointed seven or eight big holes on him.

"You know the acupoint technique of Tianlai Villa, don't mess with your true anger, otherwise you won't know how you died. I'm kind enough to remind you, don't think about how to escape. The merchant put his arm around him and pointed the arrow directly at his neck and carotid artery.

His body was soft, and he couldn't use his strength, so he slowly walked down the stairs and asked someone to open the city gate, Xiao Ruoshui sat in the carriage, Zhao Cheng rode a horse, Gu Rushan was put on the horse's back, Zhao Cheng smiled and said: "Don't follow, otherwise Lord Gu will be very uncomfortable." After saying that, Ha Lu laughed.

They swaggered out of the city gates. Until he arrived in the woods more than twenty miles away from the city, Zhao Cheng dropped Gu Rushan on a big tree, patted his face and said, "Let's go, don't think about chasing him, otherwise you will regret it." We don't like to kill people the most. Gu Rushan was stuffed with a cloth ball in his mouth, and he couldn't speak, hanging from a tree and dangling like a swing. The princess laughed. But as soon as she saw Xiao Ruoshui's blood-soaked clothes, she didn't get angry, and rushed up to punch and kick, and Gu Rushan, who was beaten with a tree branch at the end, had a blue nose and swollen face, and several teeth fell out before she stopped. After the last time, under the persuasion of Xiao Ruoshui, he lost his anger and got into the carriage and left.
