old friends return

The rain gradually lightened and fell pattering all night.

In the early morning of the second day, Gao Xuan and Lin Anyou tidied up briefly before leaving and returning.

Although the result of this trip was not satisfactory, at least it was rewarding. At least a small fish was caught here.As for the purpose of the Seventh Prince, Wei Chixiang, he was also confused.

The battle will not be fought for a while, the most urgent thing is to use Li Ye to force Yan Qi out.

After saying goodbye to Han Shuwen and Cheng Muxing, they set off on their way back.On the way back, it was even faster than when I came.Several people rode fast horses, but they had already reached the vicinity of Kule City in two days.

Night is coming.

Gao Xuan signaled everyone to slow down and find a sheltered place to rest for the night.

Lin Anyou's horse took a few steps and sauntered up to Gao Xuan's horse.

Suddenly, I heard the sound of breaking wind, which was very clear in the silent night and the empty desert.

Gao Xuan got up on the horse, lightly kicked the horse's head with his toes, and signaled the horse to dodge aside, while he himself turned around and flew towards Lin Anyou.

Although Lin Anyou's skill was not as good as Gao Xuan's, but seeing Gao Xuan's sudden move at this time, he rolled down from the horse with a short body and landed on the sand.

A group of dark guards saw an arrow that glowed blue under the moonlight and was clearly poisoned, and seemed to fly close to their ears and shoot towards Gao Xuan.

And the arrow just now was avoided by Gao Xuan and Lin Anyou's quick reaction.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of arrows in the air became more and more clear.Qiao Bei and Qiao Nan drew their swords out of their sheaths one after another to block the arrows.Gao Xuan pulled Lin Anyou to stand behind him, his eyes met the green eyes not far away in the darkness.

Another four arrows were shot from different directions.Gao Xuan and Lin Anyou changed their figures, Lin Anyou's fan was abruptly wiped by the arrow, and a hole in it made Lin Anyou feel bad.

"The enemy is in the dark, but we are in the light. What do they mean by using us as a target?" Lin Anyou pushed the handle of his fan, blocking the arrows that passed by.

"There are eight people on the other side, as many as us." Gao Xuan listened to the wind from different directions in his ear, and slowly drew out his ancient knife.

quarter of an hour.

They blocked a full hundred and eight arrows.But the opponent's distance from them was unclear, and it would only be more dangerous to attack rashly.Just when Gao Xuan was worried about whether he should go to check on the opponent first, he heard a whistle from Yaoyao over there.

This was followed by a clear, orderly retreat.

Gao Xuan signaled everyone to get on their horses, and stayed there to watch for a while.

He was still a little worried and confused, why, did he just come to test them... But who are these people?Isn't this the look he noticed when they were changing gunpowder outside Kule City that day?

When he was distracted, he suddenly felt an arrow with a strong killing intent and a strong inner force, which was completely incomparable to the previous ones.

When the breaking wind of "Sa—" was heard, it was too late to react and dodge.When Gao Xuan turned around, what he saw was an arrow that hit his face directly.

However, in an instant, Lin Anyou flew towards him and rolled him off the horse. The arrow was deflected by his fan, and it rubbed against Lin Anyou's shoulder and was nailed to the ground not far away. On a dead tree.

Gao Xuan heard Lin Anyou, who was pressing on him, let out an extremely painful "uh--" in a low voice.

The shirt on the shoulder was cut open by the arrow, and black and red blood slowly oozes out.

Several hidden guards at the side were a little overwhelmed by this sudden change.

Gao Xuan quickly helped Lin Anyou up, tore off his clothes to check his wounds.

Lin Anyou's complexion was a little pale, but his lips were a little brighter than usual, and he joked recklessly: "Idiot, you see it's fortunate that you took me with you on this trip to the west, and I said that with my lightness kung fu, I can definitely help you... hiss--"

The wound was not deep, but the poison had penetrated into the skin.

"Shut up!" Gao Xuan's tone was several times higher than usual, Lin Anyou raised his head to look at him, and saw a Gao Xuan who was sweating profusely, with red eyes, tearing eyes, no longer the usual calm, self-restraint, maturity, Panicked like a dog that has lost its owner.

"Idiot..." Lin Anyou murmured softly, "I know what you want to do, if you can save your life, don't hesitate."

Gao Xuan's tears fell heavily on Lin Anyou's face.

The six hidden guards turned their heads away and didn't know what to say.

"Qiao Bei, help Mr. Lin." Qiao Bei walked over to straighten Lin Anyou's body, and Gao Xuan slammed his palm on his right shoulder, forcibly breaking Lin Anyou's tendons.

Lin Anyou spat out a big mouthful of blood and passed out.

Gao Xuan took off his shirt, and saw that the flesh that was just scratched had festered a large piece under the spread of the poison, bloody and bloody.

Gao Xuan put away his ancient knife, took out a dagger from his waist, stabbed at that spot without hesitation, and pulled out a piece of rotten flesh.

Warm blood sprayed on his own face.

Qiao Nan hurriedly took the veil and came over to wipe it clean for him. If the blood was still poisonous, the situation would be even worse.

Gao Xuan slashed three times, until the bone was visible in that place.

He tore a piece of cloth from his inner garment and carefully bandaged his wound.

"How long will it be before Shengjing?" Gao Xuan gradually calmed down, and asked Qiao Bei in a hoarse voice.

"It will take three days at the earliest."

"That's fine...then go back and report the recent events to the master first. Anyou's current health is not suitable for traveling. You will arrive in a few days after me and him." Gao Xuan helped Lin Anyou get up, flew on the horse, and guarded Lin Anyou carefully. in front of myself.

"But..." Qiao Nan was a little worried, "If those people come to attack again..."

"No more," Gao Xuan glanced at Lin Anyou's wound, his eyes turned cold, "They thought they had already succeeded."

"Remember, what should be said and what should not be said." Gao Xuan threw Li Ye's jade pendant that he found earlier to Qiao Bei.

Qiao Zuo handed the arrow he had just pulled out from the dead tree to Gao Xuan.

At the tail of the arrow is a strangely shaped two-headed bird.

"Go find out who is using this sign."

"Yes!" Several hidden guards looked back worriedly, and finally rode away first.

Gao Xuan put his arms around Lin Anyou's waist with one hand, and yelled softly as he tied the rope with the other hand, and his horse slowed down and moved forward.

Lin Anyou's own horse followed behind.The horse snorted lightly, followed up and rubbed against Lin Anyou's thigh, with doubts in its big eyes.

Gao Xuan patted its head, and looked at Lin Anyou's hanging right arm with heavy unshakable sadness in his eyes, which he might never be able to lift again.

I leave my back to you, but you even want to protect my front...

Anyou, how can I, Gao Xuan, He De...
