Conan's physique? The Crown Princess is involved in a murder case again

"I observed the road I was on when I was escaping just now. The mountains on both sides of this road are connected and extend all the way to the distance. The trend remains unchanged."

Chen Yuan pointed to the mountains in the distance and said, "The men in black are blocked by the cliffs. If they want to continue tracking, they will definitely take a detour to the mountains on both sides. Although they have taken a long detour, they will be much faster with the help of the ponies. This also means,"

Before Chen Yuanshi could finish her words, she felt dizzy and almost fell down. Xu Xingyin hurriedly took two steps forward to support her and said with concern.

"Aunt, you..."

"It's okay with me."

Chen Yuan shook her head and looked at Xu Xingyin with tears in her eyes, and she said.

"Akui's wish is to keep everyone alive, and I want to make it happen for him. Jiaojiao, do you believe me?"

"I believe."

Xu Xingyin answered confidently. Seeing that Chen Yuanshi was so weak, he didn't want her to work any more, so he simply took over Chen Yuanshi's words and continued.

"The mountain's trend remains unchanged, which means the end of this road is the end of the mountain. The men in black ride faster than we do, so when we go out again, they can just sit there and kill us by surprise."

Chen Yuan nodded, indicating that Xu Xingyin understood correctly. She let out a long sigh before she recovered and gave a suggestion.

"Instead of doing that, we might as well find a secluded place nearby to hide. There are countless casualties on the official road, and I believe it will soon attract the attention of the government. The Crown Princess's guard of honor is no different from others, and they dare not underestimate it. They will definitely send people to rescue us when the time comes."

Someone in the crowd questioned, "What if no one finds out, or the government doesn't dare to intervene? Wouldn't we just be waiting to die?"

Xu Xingyin naturally knew that the method proposed by Chen Yuanshi was indeed the best way, but it was not impossible for others to doubt it.

With so many of them staying here for a day or two, we can still handle it. If they stay here for longer, they will starve to death without anyone's help.

Thinking of this, Xu Xingyin pursed his lips and thought for a while before opening his eyes and saying:

"Don't worry, I have a solution."

"what?"

"Aunt, please take everyone to a safe place to hide first. Those who are injured should treat their wounds first, and those who are not injured should rest well first. If there are men in black outside, it is best to hide first and try not to have a direct conflict."

Xu Xingyin calmly explained the various matters to everyone, "This place should be close to Liang County. Liang County is very close to Yuzhou where His Royal Highness is now. After leaving the mountain, I will find a horse and rush to Yuzhou to ask His Royal Highness to dispatch troops."

"The Crown Princess can't do it alone."

Unexpectedly, it was Old Madam Chen who was the first to reject Xu Xingyin. "You don't know martial arts, so how can your speed compare to those men in black?"

"I'll go." Lu Xu stepped forward at the right time, "I know martial arts, I will protect the Crown Princess all the way."

……

Old Madam Chen was finally persuaded by Xu Xingyin and Lu Xu, nodded and let them go.

In order to save time, Lu Xu carried Xu Xingyin all the way and saved most of the time. Finally, they got out of the valley smoothly when the first light of dawn appeared in the sky.

As soon as the two men stepped out of the woods, they saw a man in black holding a scimitar rushing towards them. His sword strikes were ruthless and caught the two men off guard.

Lu Xu had been using his internal energy to carry Xu Xingyin along with him all the way, and he was exhausted and no longer a match for his opponent.

Seeing that Lu Xu was being beaten back by the man in black, Xu Xingyin thought quickly and grabbed the Xisha on the ground and threw it out, which, together with the fog in the valley, blocked the sight of the man in black.

Seeing the situation, the two men ran away. The man in black quickly broke free from the fog and chased after them, his blade heading straight for Xu Xingyin, who was one step behind.

Although Lu Xu was not very energetic at the moment, martial artists all had excellent hearing. When he heard the sound of the blade breaking through the wind, he guessed the black-clothed man's thoughts and pushed Xu Xingyin to the side. That knife...

It pierced straight into Lu Xu's lower abdomen.

Between life and death, the pain is never as strong as the desire to "go on living".

Lu Xu endured the pain in his abdomen, reached out and twisted the hairpin on the side of Xu Xingyin's bun, and took advantage of the man in black's unpreparedness to stab it directly into his eyes.

The man in black rolled on the ground in pain, holding his wound with both hands. Lu Xu didn't even bother to stab him again, he just picked up Xu Xingyin from the ground and rushed forward.

The fog in the valley was thick, and the sky was not yet fully bright. They only had to rush a short distance before the thick fog obscured their tracks.

By the time the man in black caught up with them, enduring the pain, he was already quite a distance behind.

After walking a little further, the two stopped in front of a forked road. When Xu Xingyin stopped, he found that Lu Xu's blood had stained a small area of ​​his clothes red, and even the wrist of Xu Xingyin that he had grabbed was covered in blood.

"Shhh."

Lu Xu put his hand on Xu Xingyin's lips as he was about to speak, listened for a while with a serious expression, and when he opened his eyes again, he looked at Xu Xingyin deeply and spoke slowly.

"Their advance team has arrived. If we go separately, there may be a chance of survival."

How could Xu Xingyin not understand Lu Xu's meaning?

At this moment, Lu Xu was bleeding profusely, and the man in black only needed to follow the blood trail to find Lu Xu. At this time, Lu Xu suggested that they go their separate ways.

What he meant was that he left the chance of survival to Xu Xingyin.

Before Xu Xingyin could refuse, the faint sound of horse hooves came from behind him, which became even more obvious in the foggy valley.

Without even saying goodbye, Lu Xu pushed Xu Xingyin to the right road and ran to the left.

Watching Lu Xu gradually disappear from sight, Xu Xingyin finally hardened his heart and ran forward with tears in his eyes.

Hurry up, hurry up, only by finding Jing Zhichen and bringing reinforcements can they have a chance of being rescued!

Weakness and hesitation would only hinder her progress and would be of no use at all.

Xu Xingyin ran tirelessly on the path in the forest. She didn't know how long she had been running. When her legs were almost numb, she finally ran to a relatively lively town.

After asking, we learned that this small town was Liang County, which was only half a day's ride on horseback from Yuzhou where Jing Zhichen was.

Xu Xingyin traded a golden hairpin for a pony and galloped all the way to Yuzhou. When he arrived at his destination, the lights were already on.

Yuzhou was bustling at nightfall. Although not as prosperous as the capital, it had a different kind of bustling atmosphere.

The red lanterns hanging high on the street overlapped with the bloody battle in the dense forest valley, making the lively night seem even more desolate.

"Girl, be careful."

Her body seemed to have reached the critical point of collapse. In a trance, Xu Xingyin almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, a kind lady supported her.

When she got closer, the old lady saw the blood on Xu Xingyin's body. She was immediately horrified and let go of her as if she had dealt with a hot potato.

"Wait a minute, ma'am."

Xu Xingyin barely supported himself on the pony and smiled obediently, "Auntie, do you know where the Yuzhou government office is?"
