"No matter who the assassin is, the master can't stay here any longer, the whereabouts have been exposed..."

"Let's go as soon as the city gate opens tomorrow. I'm going to change the route. Make a detour and don't go straight to Chang'an."

"The local county lieutenant wants us to stay and assist in handling the case."

"Don't pay attention to him...he can't keep us!"

In the long night, the small discussions never stopped. At the third watch, Zhao Ji couldn't help falling asleep, and fell asleep holding Wei Chuyan's arm. Chuyan put her on the bed, and continued to study the route with everyone, and decided to walk tomorrow direction.

When he left the city gate the next day, he was really stopped.

"My lord has an order. You are not allowed to leave the city before the murder case comes to light!"

The soldiers guarding the gate were ordered, and they would not let them go no matter what.Zhao Ji showed Wan Zhaohua's token, and these people flinched a bit, but they still refused to let them go.

"It's the badge of the governor of Zhuri County."

"So what, the god of the family is in charge of the affairs of the family, we are Jingzhou and not Jiaozhou, what are we afraid of him?"

Whispering, pulling left and right, the soldiers still wouldn't let go.

Zhao Ji frowned, and wanted to force her way in. The first banquet held her back: "Don't force your way, the officials here are overbearing. If we break out of the city, the county lieutenant will probably issue a letter to hunt us down. At that time, we must not only beware of assassins , but also to avoid officials and soldiers, how can you have so much energy?"

"It's outrageous! Is it justified to keep us in such a state that we should not be allowed out of the city?"

"He is afraid that we will publicize the fact that the ruler does not speak, and he wants to wait for the case to be solved before letting us go. Your Highness, the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked. The atmosphere of this place has long been ruined by Sun Yan. They only know how to bully us." Up and down."

After explaining a few words, seeing that Zhao Ji was about to get angry, Chu Yan hurriedly comforted him: "Don't worry, Chu Yan has a solution. Since it's a matter of etiquette, use etiquette to cure it!" Then, she whispered in Zhao Ji's ear After a few words, after a sudden realization appeared on Zhao Ji's face, he walked over and pulled the city gate official in charge aside, and first secretly stuffed three gold ingots in the past: "My lord, we have official duties, it is really There can be no delay."

Weighing the weight of the gold in his hand, the little official was quite surprised. Lancheng is a small place, and the salary of a small gatekeeper like him is meager, but guarding the city gate is a lucrative job, and he is not a poor man. People, but not to mention such a heavy gold, even silver, he has never seen it before!

"Greedy." On the side, Zhou Lu looked at the city gate official from afar and snorted coldly.

Zhao Ji also saw it, his face was livid, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"But this... oh, we are also in a difficult situation, the lord has issued an order..."

Zhou Lu said again: "Greed is insatiable."

Here, Wei Chuyan smiled and stuffed three ingots of gold over: "I know that you are also very embarrassed, but Daqi's laws do not have the ability to detain people who have not violated the law at will and prevent them from leaving the city. You Look, it's not easy for you to do things for your lord, and for me to do things for my county magistrate, so why not make it easier?"

She bites the word "Junshou" very hard, but for the little official, the most important thing is the few ingots of gold.

The little official stuffed his hand into the sleeve of his robe, thought for a moment, and waved his hand: "Let's go, let's go!"

"Boss, this..."

"What is this, did you hear me when I said let it go?"

The little official got the gold, and his heart was full of joy, thinking that anyway, he would never make so much money in his life, even if he lost his official position, he would still make a lot of money!

Out of the city gate, in the carriage, Zhao Ji said angrily: "They are so corrupt and perverted the law, is it just a display for me to follow the law?"

"Wealth touches people's hearts..."

After walking for four or five days, the weather was calm.When the big rock hanging in people's hearts became slightly lighter, the second wave of assassins arrived like a storm.

This wave of assassins has bows and crossbows.Crossbow. Arrow startled the horse. In the carriage, what Zhao Ji and Wei Chuyan felt first was a violent jolt, and there were horses neighing all around. Several horses surrounded and blocked the front of the carriage. Wei Chuyan lifted the curtain After taking a look, she judged that the horse pulling the cart had been hit by an arrow and went mad, so she immediately grabbed Zhao Ji and jumped off the carriage.

Rolling Zhao Jihu in her arms, her arm was dislocated. Before she could stand up, she stretched out a hand, and she pushed Zhao Ji over. Several guards drove their horses forward, surrounded Gao Muen's horse, and while waving their knives to block the constant arrows from the back, they drove their horses and galloped forward.

Zhao Ji was hooped by him, and he yelled "Wei Chuyan", looking back, saw Hua Xiaochao's horse stopped in front of Chuyan, pulled him up, and held back his tears, turned around and hugged the horse's head , try not to disturb Gao Muen, let him run forward in silence.

Sitting on the horse, one arm of Wei Chuyan was hanging limply, Hua Xiaochao understood it after just one glance, put the rein on Wei Chuyan's other hand, both hands were free to set her bones, and then There was a burst of severe pain, the dislocated arm was connected, Hua Xiaochao was in his arms to protect him, and he drove the horse forward.

They had encountered an ambush, and the best way to defeat the enemy was to drive their horses in a hurry and break away from the encirclement.The wind whistled in my ears, and my eyes moved up and down with the violent body bumps. At this speed, I should not be able to see the surroundings clearly, but Wei Chuyan could see clearly. Horses were running, arrows were chasing, knives were flying, Reflecting the sun, brilliant and gorgeous.A few arrows passed by her ears, she reached out to catch them one by one, and threw them back, wondering if any of them hit the assassin behind the scenes.

This was the first time she had used force after the division, and it was also the first time she felt the difference in a body that had not been poisoned. Several times, when she looked at those arrows, she felt that those arrows were very slow, while she could be very fast.

From receiving the arrow to throwing it back, everything happened in the flash of lightning. Hua Xiaochao could barely see what she was doing. The people running ahead were all focused on Zhao Ji and completely missed Wei Chuyan. the shot.In a blink of an eye, after running two miles, the cold arrows behind them faded away, but the pressure was still there, because their front was blocked.

Dozens of people in black, riding horses and holding long knives, were waiting quietly in front of them, looking at them with cold expressions.

Reining in the horse's head, the red horse raised its front hooves high in the air, then landed heavily on the ground, pushed away some pieces of soil, let out a few long neighs, and stopped its figure.Gao Muen stared at them in silence for a moment, thinking of the pursuers who were coming behind, he slapped his horse's butt hard, and led the crowd to rush over again.

Zhao Ji was in his arms, leaning over to hug the horse's head, gritting his teeth, listening to the sound of swords and soldiers clashing in his ears, unable to think about anything.

After a burst of impact, the men and horses on both sides fought in one place, the charge was blocked, Wei Chuyan finally caught up, she had already grabbed a knife, knocked down the two of them, and was on par with Gao Muen's horse.

In the face of a crisis, she could no longer hide her strength, and as she let go completely, the pheromone burst out domineeringly, instantly suppressing the pheromones of everyone else in the field, like a lion rushing into a herd of sheep, such a disparity difference.

At that moment, many people felt heart palpitations.

But the lion is a cub, but the flock is full of mature sheep. The cub who can't hunt is very jerky, but the horns are so sharp that they can pierce her belly.Wei Chuyan had never learned martial arts. Although his strength and speed were above everyone else, he had no skills. He was accidentally approached by assassins several times, and finally escaped narrowly by virtue of his sense of other people's pheromones.

At this time, many people had been cut off from their horses. Gao Muen killed several people, covered in blood, was stabbed in the arm, and could no longer hold the reins. Zhao Ji gritted his teeth, took the reins and drove the horse forward.

Hua Xiaochao's horse followed her like a steel knife. They broke through the siege, and the people behind them were still fighting. They didn't care about the many, and ran forward by themselves, but someone was still chasing them. In desperation, Gao Muen pulled Wei Chuyan onto the horse's back, and got onto Hua Xiaochao's horse himself: "Miss Wei, the master will be handed over to you, and I will cut off the heir for you!"

He also smelled Wei Chuyan's pheromone and saw Wei Chuyan make a move. He felt a little shocked, knowing that he had been deceived by this seemingly powerless "inferior" Lord Qianyang, but the situation was urgent. He didn't have time to think about it, it was enough to know that Wei Chuyan should be able to protect his master!

Immediately changed to another person, Hua Xiaochao also understood that this was the best way, if it dragged on, the four of them would be dragged here, said "Master be careful", then reined in the horse's head and ran towards the way they came go.

Ding ding, dong dong, the sound of shouting and killing one after another was left behind, the horses carried them forward, the hair of the first banquet was blown in the wind, the clothes were blowing, and there was a sound of hunting, Zhao Ji was in her arms. In the middle of the night, with his legs between the horse's belly, he tried to keep himself as stable as possible, so as to reduce the burden on Wei Chuyan's hands.

Gradually, the sound of hacking and killing disappeared. I don't know how far I ran, but I only know that the scorching sun in the afternoon has turned into the warm sun in the evening.In a hidden mountain forest, the two of them stopped. Once the horse slackened, it knelt down on the ground, twitching its four hooves, and gradually stopped moving.

"It's dead."

Zhao Ji squatted aside and touched the horse's neck, where no arteries were beating anymore.

"...is exhausting."

Wei Chuyan sat under a big tree, looking at the horse corpse, feeling a little sad.

"Gao Muen and the others... can they survive?" Sitting next to Wei Chuyan, Zhao Ji asked with a trembling voice.

"Master...the situation at that time was too chaotic." Wei Chuyan sighed deeply: "If I let me see, Gao Muen and the others will not die. Although there are many assassins, they are not as powerful as the guards. Mu En let us go first because he was afraid that we would not be able to take care of you in the melee, now that they have nothing to worry about, they should be able to kill the assassin if they work hard."

"But I think the assassins are also very powerful, and there are many of them..."

"So someone will definitely die, on our side, on their side... a lot of people will die. I, I don't know how many people will survive, but someone will definitely survive, Gao Muen, Xiao Chao and Zhou Lu, they all have the ability to break through and will not be held back by assassins."

"But... your servants probably won't survive. Those who can survive must be the guards."

"Then shall we wait for them here?"

Zhao Ji wiped away the tears with all his strength, and asked anxiously.

Wei Chuyan looked at the big trees that were damaged by drought in the mountains and forests, and a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes.

"No, we won't wait for them anymore, because I don't know whether we can wait for guards or assassins. Master, we have to go the rest of the way by ourselves."
