Chapter 186 Pursuit
After tidying up their luggage, the caravan set off again. After half a day's travel, they arrived at the market named Changping on the map. The distance from here to HD is only a day away. The caravan may be slower, but It won't be much slower.

After arriving at the market, everyone found an inn. A caravan paid for it, so Gao Xing and Xiang Shaolong naturally enjoyed it. Meanwhile, Tao Fang left the caravan for a while under the pretense of having something to do. Some strangers came to the inn and took one of the caravan's goods.

Gao Xing and Xiang Shaolong didn't notice these things, the two of them were happily wandering around the market, and Xiang Shaolong had already arrived in Xianyang with his arms in his arms for a while, and lived a stable life when Qin Shihuang ascended the throne before he could go back Thinking about it, who cares what calculations you have.

When Gao Xing and Xiang Shaolong returned to the inn, Tao Fang and the others had changed from their rushing manner to a calm state, and they could greet Gao Xing and them to eat and drink, but the good times were not good. Long, before the day was over, in the evening, I heard someone shouting in the market.

"The horse thief is coming, run away!"

Then the sound of a large number of people came.

Gao Xing and Xiang Shaolong lived on the second floor of the inn. When they opened the curtains, they saw that there were some thugs riding horses on the street. They killed anyone they could, but they didn't snatch anything. They were very disciplined. The clothes are a bit like tattered bandits, but if you look closely, you will find that they are not comparable to those bandits composed of a bunch of rotten people who are unorganized and undisciplined.

"Is the law and order so bad in ancient times?" Xiang Shaolong's forehead was sweating, because there were at least a thousand people here this time, and he didn't feel that he could escape easily at all.

Gao Xing said: "This place is so close to Zhao's capital, I don't think these people should be horse thieves, but more like soldiers."

Hearing this, Xiang Shaolong sized up those horse thieves, then seemed to have discovered something, and suddenly said: "Hey, when you put it that way, I think it's a bit different from the robbers I saw yesterday, but they pretended to be Why do horse thieves come to the market? Do they have to rob their own citizens to collect taxes? Then this government is too LOW."

As Xiang Shaolong was talking, he saw that the horse thieves seemed to have found their target and headed straight towards the inn where Gao Xing and the others were. After a while, those people all rushed in, and Tao Fang and others were also arrested. Soon Someone soon ran to the house where Gao Xing and Xiang Shaolong were, but when they opened the door, Gao Xing and Xiang Shaolong were gone.

On the roof of a building, Gao Xing was helping Xiang Shaolong to look into the market, where the caravan was tied up by those horse thieves, and a man who looked like the leader of the horse thieves was asking Tao Fang something.

"Is this light work? It's really powerful." Xiang Shaolong patted his chest with a frightened look.

"It's very costly. After you practice your internal skills for a while, you can fly more than ten meters." Gao Xing responded casually. At this time, those horse thieves seemed to be enraged by Tao Fang, and they beat and kicked him a few times. , but in the end he did not kill him, but took Tao Fang and others away from here.

Gao Xing discussed with Xiang Shaolong, and decided to save people, and he couldn't be left alone, so he followed these horse thieves all the way, waiting for the opportunity.

In the middle of the night, Gao Xing left Xiang Shaolong outside the camp to meet him, while he quietly ran to the place where Tao Fang was imprisoned. Behind the tent, Gao Xing saw Tao Fang who had been randomly thrown on the ground at a glance. At this time, Tao Fang's eyes were closed, his clothes were torn, and his body was covered with scars. It was obvious that he had been tortured.

Gao Xing reached out and probed Tao Fang's breath, and found that he was just asleep, to prevent him from waking up, yelling at Gao Xing to apply pressure points directly, making him completely faint, and then performed lightness kung fu to take him away from the camp.

In the forest outside the camp, after Gao Xing relieved Tao Fang's acupoints, he injected a ray of internal energy to wake him up. Tao Fang opened his eyes and trembled for a moment. When he regained his composure, he found Gao Xing and Xiang Shaolong in front of him. , quickly said: "Thank you two young heroes for saving me."

Xiang Shaolong asked, "Why did those people arrest you?"

Tao Fang immediately reacted when he heard Xiang Shaolong's words, as if he had thought of something, he hurriedly said: "You two young heroes, can I ask you one thing."

Xiang Shaolong looked at Gao Xing, Gao Xing nodded, and Xiang Shaolong said to Tao Fang, "Tell me what's going on."

Tao Fang said: "To tell you the truth, I was originally the steward of Wujiabao in Zhao State, and I was ordered to privately escort the treasure back to Zhao State and return it to the monarch, but for some reason, my identity has been exposed now, even though I handed over the treasure to the eldest lady in advance. She was sent back to Zhao country, but this matter is very important, I am afraid that someone is plotting against us in Wujiabao, the eldest lady has no knowledge of this, there may be an accident, I hope the two of you can start from here and rush to HD, catch up The eldest lady personally returned the treasure to me, the Lord of Wujiabao."

"When did she leave?" Xiang Shaolong asked.

"The young lady set out at the end of the day today," Tao Fang responded.

"Then it's been six or seven hours already? How can you chase after this?" Xiang Shaolong's expression turned ugly.

Although Tao Fang didn't understand what exactly six or seven hours meant, he still explained: "No, Missy should rest on the way, there is a hotel there, it's only two hours away from here, as long as the two of you are enough Hurry up, you should be able to arrive before dawn, and when it’s done, everyone in Wujiabao will be very grateful, and there will be a big gift for you.”

Hurry up, Xiang Shaolong shouted to Gao Xing: "Hey, he described it so abstractly, can you really tell who is that young lady?"

"I've seen her before." Gao Xing said concisely. He had indeed met the young lady accidentally.

After the two of them rode for a long time, they saw the hotel that Tao Fang had mentioned, but what Gao Xing and the others thought was different, the place had been destroyed and there were dozens of corpses lying in it. Among the corpses were those dressed as businessmen who had been with Gao Xing and the others before.

Gao Xing looked around, but he didn't find the figure of the eldest lady. It seemed that she didn't suffer any disaster. From the traces of the scene, Xiang Shaolong speculated that the incident happened within ten minutes at most, and there should be enough time to catch up.

At this time, on the official road, a handsome man holding a sword was riding on a horse with a woman. The woman was Wu Yanfang, the eldest lady of Wujiabao. She said to the man with a spring face, "Brother Lian, Thank you for saving me, otherwise I would be in danger."

The man called Brother Lian's eyes flickered, and he replied: "Escorting He's Bi is a very important matter. I only found out about it after receiving a secret report. By the way, where is He's Bi?"

Wu Yanfang took out a piece of crystal-clear jade from her bosom, and there was even a slight fluorescent light on it, showing off: "They must not have imagined that I have always carried He's Bi with me, and I was still rummaging in the carriage. Can’t find it.”

"Then you are really smart." The man with the sword fixed his eyes on He Shibi perfunctorily.

"Of course, such an important thing, of course you have to carry it with you."

Wu Yanfang had a slightly smug expression on her face, but she didn't see that the sword beside her was slightly unsheathed.

"Whoever wants to achieve big things, don't stick to small details, Yanfang, I like you very much, but you block my way." The man with the sword murmured, and the long sword was already placed on Wu Yanfang's neck.

Wu Yanfang was immersed in the joy of being rescued and praised by the person he liked. His IQ was completely off the line. When he saw this, he said coquettishly: "Brother Lian, your sword hit me."

She didn't even think about it, how could a top swordsman not be able to hold the sword in his hand.

"Really? I'll take it a little further." The man holding the sword said, and the sword was completely unsheathed with a clatter.

Wu Yanfang finally realized what was wrong, and looked at the long sword on her neck in disbelief, "Brother Lianlian."

"I'm sorry, there are some things that should not be known."

The sword-wielding man's heart turned hard, and the moment he was about to slit Master Xin's throat, an iron sword pierced through the air and flew towards him at such a high speed that he couldn't help being startled, so he quickly withdrew the sword to block it.

"Bangdang."

The two swords collided, and the man holding the sword was knocked off the horse directly, and the flying long sword was broken from it. At this time, the sound of galloping horses came slowly.

"Brother Gao, are you so strong? You can hit it directly from such a distance, it's really stronger than a pistol, what's the name of this move?" Xiang Shaolong said brokenly.

"Hundred Steps Flying Sword!" Gao Xing replied.

"The name is perfunctory at first glance. Didn't you just come up with it? Alas, it's a pity that I have to find another sword again. Their alloy technology is really not good enough."

While talking, the two approached the horse where Wu Yanfang was. Wu Yanfang was still in a daze at this moment, the plot changed so fast that her brain couldn't turn it around at all.

"Who are you?"

And the hands of the man holding the sword were shaking a little at this time. He never thought that there would be such a day. The power attached to the sword made him feel a little scared and afraid. In a normal duel, he might not be able to take any sword from this man. When did such a powerful swordsman appear in this Zhao country, but no matter what, it is absolutely irrational to fight head-to-head.

"Us? Who else could it be? Passers-by." Xiang Shaolong responded casually, then looked at Wu Yanfang and said, "Hey, have you recovered? By the way, that person named Tao Fang can't speak. It’s really not very reliable, we’ve been here for at least five hours, and the horses are almost exhausted.”

Wu Yanfang came to her senses, she had met Xiang Shaolong and Gao Xing before, and when she heard Tao Fang's name, she hurriedly asked, "Boss Tao sent you here? Boss Tao, is he okay?"

"At least it's much better than you, hey, you're like this, you're out of your mind, it looks like you've been cheated of your feelings, dirty." Xiang Shaolong said with interest.
