Jixiang took Zaohua, Erya, Li Shiwei and others to the Swan Valley outside the city. The so-called ditch is actually a valley. Because the whole valley looks like a swan nesting eggs, it is called Swan Valley.

In autumn, the leaves of Swan Valley are yellow, the water is green, and fruits of various colors are ripe, red and yellow, hanging on the branches. The scenery is really beautiful, and Erya exclaims "Aaah" from time to time.

"The place recommended by Guard Li is indeed good. It has few people and beautiful scenery. It is a good place to visit." Ji Xiang turned around and said to Guard Li as he walked.

Guard Li: "But there have been rumors here that a large beast will appear. Does the princess want to go in?"

Ji Xiang: "Why don't you go? Haven't you seen that the further you go, the more beautiful the scenery becomes. To see the scenery, you have to go to places less visited by people. Only then can you see the most primitive beauty that no one has trampled on."

Zaohua on the side listened to the conversation between the two, but felt a little worried, "Sister, do we still want to go in?"

Ji Xiang nodded: "It's hard to see such a beautiful place, and I don't want to go back."

"That's not possible! You can't stay here for the night!" Zaohua looked at the endless mountains on both sides. "There are mountains as far as the eye can see. Don't go in and get lost and unable to get out. Besides, Guard Li just said..."

Erya, who had been walking in front, didn't hear what Guard Li said just now. When she heard that Zaohua didn't want to go inside, she ran back: "Sister-in-law, don't worry. With the lady here, we will definitely not get lost." She said. As he said that, he saw something falling from the tree on the hillside next to him, and ran towards the hillside.

Zaohua: "Erya, be careful, don't do anything rash."

Erya ran to a tall chestnut tree and said, "Hey, come and see, what kind of fruit is this? It's fallen all over the ground."

Guard Li glanced at the tree above Erya's head: "It must be a chestnut. This wild chestnut tree is really big."

Erya was happy, "There are so many chestnuts, miss, sister-in-law, are the chestnuts edible? If so, I will pick them up!"

Jixiang nodded: "It's delicious, it's delicious."

Erya was happy and happily bent down to pick up the chestnuts that fell on the ground, "You all come up and pick them up, there are so many!"

Jujube flowers are auspicious.

Ji Xiang: "Go ahead if you want. You can pick them up and bake them in the winter. Guard Li, you can also take someone to pick them up. If you pick up enough, I will go back and make chestnut roast chicken for you!"

The guards behind Guard Li were ready to move.

Guard Li: "It's enough for Erya and Sister-in-law Zaohua to pick it up. Our mission is to protect the princess."

"I'm fine. I'm just here to look at the scenery. Nothing will happen." Jixiang said to the guards behind Guard Li, "Anyone who wants to take a walk can take a walk. It doesn't have to be the same as Guard Li. They don't dare to take a step." leave me."

The guards looked at each other and then dispersed, running up the hillside to pick up chestnuts.

Ji Xiang smiled and saw that Guard Li was still guarding her with a serious face, so he said nothing and walked towards a pool not far away.

Guard Li followed closely.

There are many water pools in Tianegou Valley, and there will be one at a certain distance. The water in the pool is so clear that there is no impurity in it, and it is sweet after being held in your mouth for a long time.

"This spring water will definitely be good for making chestnut roast chicken. It's a pity that I didn't bring a few cans when I came out, otherwise I could have brought a few cans of water back." Jixiang said, looking at his figure on the water.

Now she really wanted to get all the water into the space, but in front of Li Weiwei and others, she was afraid that with a wave of her hand, a pool of water would get into the space and everyone would find out her secret, so she had to hold back and try to find a few Bring some jars back.

Guard Li:...

Seeing that Guard Li didn't respond, Jixiang shouted to Erya and others who were picking chestnuts on the hillside: "Who has an empty pot in your hand? Let's fill it with water from the pool and go back."

Erya: "Okay, miss, I'm carrying one on my back. I'll go down and fill you with water later!"

Ji Xiang: "Don't worry, you can pick chestnuts first."

As soon as she finished speaking, a cold arrow flew towards her.

With quick eyesight and quick hands, Guard Li immediately protected Ji Xiang behind him, drew his sword and knocked away the flying arrows: "Princess, be careful!"

Seeing the situation, several guards on the hillside rushed over and stood guard around Ji Xiang.

After a hail of arrows, a dozen men in black rushed down from the opposite hillside and rushed towards Ji Xiang.

Li Weiwei and others tried their best to protect Ji Xiang.

Ji Xiang was surrounded in the middle and had no chance to make a move. "Guard Li, get out of the way!"

Guard Li was stunned and moved to the side unconsciously.

Ji Xiang took the opportunity to strike out with both palms, and immediately two men in black fell to the ground. Upon seeing this, the other men in black immediately adjusted their offensive and rushed towards Jixiang together.

Jixiang slapped him a few more times, and several men in black fell to the ground one after another.

Guard Li and his fellow guards took the opportunity to kill several lone men in black.

Erya was dragged by Zaohua and hid behind a stone. Seeing Jixiang's moves, which were all in vain, she was so envious that she said, "Young lady is so good at martial arts. I will learn martial arts from you in the future and protect you!"

Zaohua signaled: "Don't make any noise to cause trouble for her!"

Erya quickly covered her mouth herself.

Here, after Ji Xiang, Li Weiwei and others jointly attacked, the men in black were unable to defeat them. Seeing that the situation was not good, the leader of the men in black shouted to retreat. In a moment, the remaining men in black disappeared into the woods. No trace was left, leaving only four men in black who were seriously injured on the ground.

Ji Xiang and Guard Li immediately went up to check, only to find that everyone had swallowed poison and lost their breath.

Dead soldier? !

"Do you know these people, Guard Li?" Ji Xiang asked after checking all the corpses of the men in black, "Do you know who has a dead soldier in his house?"

Guard Li shook his head, "Normally there are a lot of guards in the capital, but there are probably not many people who can afford to care for scholars, but..."

"Come and see!" Jixiang called to Guard Li, "See if they all have this pattern on their arms." She had already discovered that one of the men in black had a butterfly tattoo on his right arm.

Guard Li and others checked one by one and found that all the men in black had the same pattern on their right arms.

At this time, Zaohua and Erya ran over, "Sister, how are you, are you not injured?" Zaohua looked at Jixiang's body worriedly.

Erya: "Miss, you are so powerful. Can I learn kung fu from you in the future?"

Jixiang touched Erya's head and said, "Stay here while I go up there with Guard Li to take a look."

"We are with you!" Erya and Zaohua said in unison.

Everyone went up the mountain in the direction where the man in black left. Unexpectedly, the way up the mountain was blocked by a huge rock halfway up the mountain.

"I'll go up and have a look!" Li Weiwei said and was about to tiptoe up on the spot, but was held down by Ji Xiang.
