Rebirth: Phoenix Palm Nine Heavens

Chapter 407 Rescue the Hostages

Xie Zhong looked at the imperial edict in King Su's hand and knelt on the ground with a trace of fantasy in his heart.

King Su unfolded the imperial edict and glanced at Xie Zhong who was kneeling on the ground. "Flattery, the emperor issued an edict: This is because Xie Zhong, the defender of Bazhou, collaborated with the enemy and treason, took bribes, committed crimes, and imprisoned good generals without permission. Such crimes are justifiable by nature." It's hard to tolerate, and I deeply owe you my kindness. After careful consideration, I decided to remove him from his official position, and escort Xie Zhong and his family back to Beijing for trial. I appreciate this. Xie Zhong, accept the order!"

Xie Zhong knelt on the ground, knowing that what he had done would definitely lead to death. He raised his eyes and glanced at Xiao Jinse not far away, with fierceness flashing in his eyes.

With a turn of his wrist, a dagger was already in Xie Zhong's hand. Xie Zhong held a dagger and attacked quickly and fiercely. Xiao Jinse dodged sideways and then quickly kicked Xie Zhong on the wrist. Xie Zhong's wrist was kicked so hard that the dagger fell to the ground.

But Xie Zhong was not reconciled and soon started fighting with Xiao Jinse. The two sides were going back and forth, punching each other hard, and it was hard to tell the winner for a while. Xiao Jinse's eyes were firm and sharp, and he guarded closely, looking for Xie Zhong's flaws.

In order to survive, Xie Zhong used his moves to become more and more fierce. Xiao Jinse narrowly avoided the attacks one after another while looking for opportunities to counterattack.

During the fierce fight, Xiao Jinse discovered that Xie Zhong's leg seemed to have a hidden injury. She took action without hesitation and kicked Xie Zhong in the leg. Xie Zhong fell to the ground in pain, then quickly got up and continued to attack Xiao Jinse.

Xiao Jinse gasped and used all his strength to launch a powerful attack and kicked Xie Zhong away.

Xie Zhong fell heavily, but he did not give up. He flew forward and knocked open the old man's door.

The old woman at home was caught by Xie Zhong and became a hostage. Her face was full of fear and helplessness.

Xiao Jinse frowned when he saw this scene, "Xie Zhong, let her go."

"Let her go? General Zijin, I really underestimated you. I didn't expect that you had already arrived in Bazhou and hid your identity. Now that I have a hostage in hand, what can you do to me? If this happens The person's death in my hands is also your fault, General Bauhinia, who asked you to press forward step by step."

"Xie Zhong, you are just adding to the crime by arresting the people of Bazhou. Don't continue to commit crimes." Xiao Jinse said angrily.

"I know that the prince and the princess love the people as their own children. Prepare a million taels of silver notes for me and arrange a carriage to take me to the Northern Desert border. I will release him when I get to the Northern Desert border. How about that?"

"Fanghua, prepare a car, but I can't get out the one million taels of silver notes now. I only have 50,000 taels in hand. I'll raise the rest for you, as long as you don't hurt the hostages."

"Okay." Xie Zhong looked at Xiao Jinse proudly. After a while, Fanghua drove a carriage to the door.

"Master, the carriage is ready."

Xie Zhong glanced at the carriage and took his entourage to get on the carriage with the old woman. The coachman drove the carriage quickly, and Xiao Jinse quickly chased her out with Qinggong.

The carriage was moving quickly, and Xiao Jinse was also worried that Xie Zhongzhen would hurt the hostages, so he just followed him at a short distance, looking for opportunities to save people.

As night fell, Xie Zhong and his men hid in the ruined temple, while Xiao Jinse quietly lurked in the darkness.

Xie Zhong was also a man on the battlefield, so he was very vigilant in this situation. His followers were always guarding the door. The old woman was tied up with ropes and thrown at Xie Zhong's feet. If there was danger, Xie Zhong would definitely Will push the old woman out to resist.

The full moon was in the sky, and several wolf howls could be heard from time to time in the distance. Xie Zhong's entourage said: "General, are we really going to the Northern Desert? If we really go to the Northern Desert, then we will become rebels."

"What? Are you afraid? Don't forget, for the evil things you have done, even ten cuts on your head will not be enough." Xie Zhong said coldly.

"It's just that we are bringing such an old woman with us. What if Princess Su really comes after her regardless of her?"

"Yes, general, Xiao Jinse's martial arts is so good, and now that King Su is here, they have stronger force."

"We have reached this point, and we can only burn the boat."

As the sound of branches being trampled was heard, Xie Zhong raised his head and looked at the door, "Xiao Jinse, you are actually chasing me."
