General

Through this barren frontier town, it is soon another long and desolate mountain road.Dead leaves covered the potholed road, and the wheels creaked as they rolled over the gravel.

Food was distributed to the victims, but there was no place nearby to supply them. They walked day and night in the wilderness for two consecutive days, but there was still no trace of human beings as far as they could see.

Sitting cross-legged by the bonfire, Lan Jing sighed silently as she looked at the pheasant roasted so sizzling by Li Xuan.These roasted birds and roasted rabbits have been eaten with relish from the beginning until now, and he has already started to feel sick when he sees them.

Looking up and looking not far away, Ning Yu and Ling Feng were sitting around another bonfire silently roasting hares, while Qiu Yang propped his hands on the side of his face, staring at the rabbit meat with a look of salivation, he became more and more excited. He shook his head speechlessly.

Can they really not get tired of eating this kind of food for three days in a row?

"Take it."

The deep voice suddenly rang softly in the ear, Lan Jing immediately came back to her senses, and turned her head to look at Li Xuan.

I saw that Li Xuan had already unloaded a chicken leg, covered it with clean oil paper, and delivered it to him without rejection.

"I... I don't want to eat..." Lan Jing looked at him cautiously, muttering pitifully, although every time he would give himself the most delicious part without hesitation, but this eating is For three whole days, he really couldn't bear it anymore.

"Persist for another day..." Li Xuan looked a little serious on his face, but his tone did not mean to blame him.It is not easy for Lan Jing to be so pampered since she was a child, but it is not easy to persist these days, but in the deep mountains of this cold winter month, let alone wild vegetables and fruits, there is not even a single weed!

Li Xuan looked up at the warm sun just after noon, and continued to whisper soothingly: "In two days, we should be able to reach the main city of Chang'an County, and when we arrive in the city, I will take you to eat well. "

"Yeah." Lan Jing obediently took the chicken leg and held it in front of her face, but she frowned and tried to persuade her stomach, knowing that Li Xuan's eyes were on her, but she was still reluctant and couldn't deliver it. mouth to go.

While he was desperately struggling with his thoughts, Ling Feng suddenly jumped up from the ground with an unfinished bone in his mouth, snorted vaguely at Ning Yu, and Ning Yu unsheathed his long sword , pulling Qiu Yang straight towards him!

"...?" Lan Jing opened her eyes wide and looked at Ning Yu inquiringly, only to see him guarding her side with a sword, and lowered her voice to remind, "There is murderous intent."

who?

Looking at Ning Yu's expression, she seemed to be facing a formidable enemy, but looking at Ling Feng's still unwillingness to throw away that bone, she always felt that it was not that serious? ?

Is it Li Shouhong's pursuer?

Or the bandits from Shuilongzhai?

Thinking about it carefully, I seem to have offended a lot of people recently!

A slight sound gradually surrounded them, and among the dead branches and dry grass in the distance, it seemed that a large black figure was approaching them quickly.

Li Xuan also held his long sword horizontally in front of him, and together with Ning Yu, he protected Lan Jing and Qiu Yang in the middle, his deep eyes quietly stared at the black-clothed killer who was getting closer, and his eyes became a little colder.

A strange whistle suddenly sounded not far away, and the killers who were approaching slowly pulled out their weapons at the same time, and rushed over almost crazily.

The sound of fighting suddenly broke out, and patches of blood mist continued to bloom in the cold barren mountain, dyeing the endless withered yellow space with a dazzling scarlet.

The cool wind was piercing, but everything in front of him was even more chilling.These killers are not only numerous in number, but their skills are even more impressive. Any one of them can bring down a team of guards.Everyone was surrounded by the crowd, and as the enemies continued to press on, the circle surrounded by Ling Feng and the other three became smaller and smaller. From time to time, daggers and hidden weapons sneaked in, which made Lan Jing feel frightened.

Qiu Yang held a short dagger to protect Lan Jing by his side. Although he was not good at martial arts, his eyes had a firmness that he had never seen before, as if he was ready to use his body to resist him at any time.

The black-clothed killers were killed and injured a lot, but there were still many alive. They surrounded Lan Jing and the others three layers inside and three layers outside, and rushed forward one after another, almost desperately rushing forward one after another.

"Who the hell are they!?" Li Xuan gradually approached Ling Feng a little bit, panting slightly and asked with his head sideways.

Li Xuan was not familiar with the moves of these people, but they were obviously from the same school, and they were extremely fierce.Whether it is the soldiers of the Li family or the bandits in the cottage, they are all recruited with money and money, and it is impossible for such a situation to happen.

"Probably... the blood pavilion killer..." Ling Feng desperately repelled a black-clothed assassin wielding a sword, glanced at Li Xuan from the corner of his eye, and continued, "Pay attention to the dead ones. It will turn slightly purple, it should be after taking a hundred-day throat seal!"

"..." Li Xuan raised his hand to fend off a sneak attacking assassin, frowning and looking at the mountains of corpses around him.But for those who died a little longer, an abnormal black and purple color appeared on the lips.

Blood Pavilion Killer...

He had long heard that the Xuanming Blood Pavilion was extremely cruel, and even the killers he had cultivated since childhood would use deadly poisons to control them in order to ensure absolute loyalty.It's not that he hasn't heard of the poison of hundred-day throat sealing, but now it's the first time he's seen it. According to rumors, it happens once every hundred days. If he doesn't get the antidote, he will be unable to breathe and suffocate to death.

Li Xuan furrowed his brows fiercely, looking at the assassin with a somewhat familiar appearance, but gradually fell into the memory amidst the battles and battles.

During the winter hunting, those killers who attacked him on the hunting ground, although the only person whose face was uncovered by him did not show any changes in their lips due to the short time, but now that I think about it, I am afraid that they were specially sent by the Blood Pavilion to assassinate him !

The Xuanming people have sunken eye sockets and high cheekbones. Due to being nomadic all year round, their skin is rougher and darker.These characteristics that have long been commonplace made him doubt for a moment when he saw that person's appearance, but at that time, the target of everyone's suspicion was on the regent, and no one thought about Xuanming Kingdom... …

One after another, the black-clothed killers fell down, but the physical strength of the three people gradually began to be overdrawn in this seemingly endless consumption.The most obvious consequence of the sluggish movement was that they couldn't dodge in time, and streaks of blood gradually appeared on their bodies.

Lan Jing quietly looked at everything in front of her, but her fingers were inadvertently firmly embedded in her palm.He doesn't know martial arts, so he can only rely on the protection of others, but it is precisely because Li Xuan and the others need to be distracted to block hidden weapons and flowing swords for him, that they become more and more stretched.

Fatigue is gradually showing, but the enemy is still rushing forward.Li Xuan wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at the many killers around him, and glanced at Lan Jing worriedly.

According to the current situation, should he try his best to fight a bloody way and let Ling Feng lead Lan Jing to go first?If it is consumed head-on like this, what are the chances of winning? !

Just when he was hesitating alone, there was a sudden sound of horseshoes in the distance. There were a lot of people, and they came straight here.

Oops!

Originally, the blood pavilion killer had already put them in deep danger, but now, no matter whether it was Li's mansion or Shuilongzhai who came, it would be like adding insult to injury to them.

Ling Feng also looked at Li Xuan in astonishment, his brows were furrowed tightly, and his fingertips turned blue and white in anxiety.

The house leak happens to be raining overnight, although he is confident that he can escape alone with Lanjing, but he knows that Lanjing will definitely not agree to leave Li Xuan here, and then leave by himself.

"Ling Feng!"

Li Xuan reprimanded him lightly, and glanced at the place surrounded by the least number of people behind him. Although some words could not be said directly, the meaning was very obvious.

"Don't worry." Ling Feng pursed his lips, raised his hand, and another head fell to the ground. As long as he wanted to leave, no one would be able to keep him.

But the premise is, don't be in the water...

The sound of horseshoes was getting closer, and the hearts of several people also rose to their throats.The killer in front of him also seemed to have no idea who was coming, and his expression was even more chaotic.

Accompanied by a billow of dust and smoke, the team in uniforms of officers and soldiers gradually appeared at the other end of the line of sight.

The Li family is chasing soldiers! !

Longxiao country reinforcements! !

The people who were struggling just now stopped at the same time, but both sides made unanimous predictions that they were enemies or not friends...

The horseshoes were flying, and this group of officers and soldiers of unknown origin soon came to the front.The man who looked like a general in the middle looked haughty and raised his hand lightly, and the large number of people surrounded the blood pavilion killer, Lan Jing and others in the middle.

The originally clear situation suddenly became extremely chaotic.

Seeing that he was surrounded by people, the Killer of the Blood Pavilion immediately turned back.But Li Xuan and Ling Feng looked at each other silently, thinking that if the officers and soldiers of the Li family were willing to kill foreign enemies first, they would not mind reaping the benefits...

That young general rode a war horse and fought with his opponent. He was extremely strong and brave. When it comes to kung fu, he might not be inferior to himself!Li Xuan frowned slightly, looked at the man with some puzzlement, but suddenly felt very sorry.

If his skills were used on the battlefield, he would definitely be a fierce general, but now he is willing to condescend to Li Shouhong's command and become a domestic servant who can't stand on the stage! ?

Lan Jing quietly stuck to Li Xuan's side, holding his blood-stained forearm and looking forward.Although the black-clothed killer is more powerful, after the battle with Li Xuan and others, everyone's physical strength has been seriously depleted.On the other hand, there were no less than a thousand officers and soldiers, and they were severely suppressed with an absolute numerical advantage.

Fight in blood until the slaughter is exhausted...

The sound of fighting gradually stopped, but Li Xuan raised his long sword vigilantly again, ready to face the next fierce battle at any time.

The young general looked around and walked slowly towards Lan Jing, stepping on the blood on the ground.Ling Feng took a few steps back, and cautiously stood in front of his master.

The man seemed to see the hostility in everyone's eyes, but he was not in a hurry to defend himself. Instead, he curled his lips slightly and put the sword back into the scabbard.

Simple actions, but the attitude is extremely clear.

Li Xuan watched his every move quietly, and the fingers that were tightly gripping the hilt of the sword also relaxed a little bit.

"Prince Jing, Princess Jing."

The general continued to move forward a few steps, and suddenly clasped his fists in both hands, bowed his eyes to the two of them and saluted, "It is indeed the dereliction of duty of the latter to put the two of them in danger on the territory of the latter, please forgive me, my lord." .”
