The target of the assassination is the fox

I have never experienced such a thrilling run, even the time I was at the Maple Leaf Temple with the princess was not as dangerous and frightening as it is now.These people are fighting for their lives, like crazy, obviously want to kill us.

Either escape tonight, or die here.

I gritted my teeth, rode my horse and stood next to the owner's car, sweeping down a few of them with my sword from time to time.The sound of the wind filled the ears, and the mixed ice and snow were like blades, scraping across the face finely and painfully.

After running for a long time, no one finally caught up.We were a little relieved, but then the biting cold wind swept past the nose with bloody smell, and it became more and more intense.My heart became alert, and I drove my horse forward, when I heard the sound of fighting.Looking intently, he could barely tell that Chu Ling and the others who went ahead had already fought against the enemy at Taniguchi.

There was an ambush before and there was chasing after. It seemed that this fight was inevitable.

"Protect the owner, follow up quickly!" I immediately took people to support Chu Ling and the others.

Different from the gang of killers before, these gray-clothed men were all mounted on horses and armed with guns. They acted swiftly and ruthlessly, followed orders and prohibitions, and were methodical.Although the secret guards of the palace and Yinshan's servants were all excellent in martial arts, they were formed temporarily and lacked some tacit understanding.Those people charged with their horses, and they quickly scattered us in short combat.In desperation, we had to fight on our own, and at the same time, we looked for opportunities to break through with the carriage.

There were killing sounds in the narrow valley.I swung my sword and cut the throat of one person, panting and wiping off the blood stains on my face, I looked around and saw that there were many corpses of people in gray clothes piled up around me, but there were so many of them, locusts kept coming, I'm afraid we couldn't hold on how long.

Who sent so many dead men to hunt us down?There must be a lot of power behind this... I suddenly had a thought in my mind, but I didn't have time to think about it right now. I rushed to Chu Ling's place and cut down a sneak attacking assassin behind her.

"Are you injured?" I was shocked to see the blood on her shoulder.

"It's okay." She shook her head, but couldn't help taking a few breaths, her face was a little pale.Seeing that another group of assassins are about to surround us, she said in a deep voice: "Wait a minute, we break out from the left, then you will take the owner to leave first from the low slope, and meet at the Liujiazhuang Waiyi Pavilion tomorrow." ” Paused, and said: “If you don’t see us, just leave, and the owner must be sent to the palace safely.”

"But you..."

"Do not bother me."

I pursed the corners of my lips, knowing that time was running out, so I didn't make any excuses, "Okay. Be careful." After speaking, I stepped on the saddle and flew up, passing the fighting crowd and jumping in front of the owner's car.

"Master, are you alright?"

"Don't worry." The owner's calm voice came from inside: "What are you going to do?"

"I can only rush out." The coachman had just been in trouble, so I sat down with the rope, and quickly drove the carriage to follow the bloody road that Chu Ling and the others fought desperately in front, rushed past those people and climbed up the left hillside .

After crossing the slope, we came out of this valley. However, there was an empty snow field in front of us, and there was no shelter at all. The snow and ice condensed in many places, and the wheels often slipped, making it very difficult to drive.Fortunately, there were several hidden guards and Yinshan slaves guarding behind, so there was no major obstacle.

At this time, some killers had already noticed this side, and they all chased after them on horseback, fighting with the hidden guards behind.

Suddenly, I felt a change in the bottom of the car, and my heart trembled. I immediately turned over, jumped up and hung lightly on the side of the carriage, grabbed the window sill with one hand and threw two dark darts down with the other hand, and passed through the whirling space between the wheels. spokes.There was only a scream of "ah" from the bottom of the car, and then a heavy object fell into the snow, and was left far behind by the galloping carriage.

But after I got rid of the assassin, before I could turn around and control the horse, the wheels got stuck in a snow nest, making it difficult to move forward.In the distance, five or six assassins had already escaped and chased after them. They drew their bows and arrows, and a sound of piercing the air quickly came towards us.

I quickly stepped on the side of the car and flew behind the car, turned my wrist and swung the sword to sweep away the flying arrows, "The owner, come out quickly, get on the horse and go!"

"Okay!" The owner came out shortly after hearing the words, and I helped him onto the horse, "You go first, I'll be the last."

"Wait a minute!" He suddenly grabbed my arm and put a small bottle and a flat pill into my palm.He lowered his voice and said: "Don't fight hard, hold this pill in your mouth later, and then spill the powder in the bottle."

"It's poison. Medicine?" I put it away.

"It doesn't count, but it's enough to deal with them." The owner of the villa raised his brows, and the light in his eyes was terrifying.Even in the face of the danger of killing himself, he was still calm and calm, without the slightest fear.

At this moment, I suddenly saw Yin Xiang, the extraordinary figure who pointed out the country in the legends of the past, and my heart suddenly felt a little surging.Seeing that the six people were approaching, he swung his sword and cut off the rope on the shaft of the chariot: "Master, please ride your horse to the outer post pavilion of Liujiazhuang! I will catch up later!"

After speaking, he threw a few darts from his sleeves to hit the horses that were rushing towards him, and then he swung his sword sharply, picking up the snow on the ground and blocking the arrows that were coming towards the owner.With a backhand, he slapped the horse's ass with the back of his sword: "Go!"

"Hua girl, you have to be careful! Drive!" The owner rode his horse and ran away.Seeing this, the four assassins who were knocked down in the back left their wounded horses and chased them lightly. Only one of them continued to ride forward.

Do not let this man pass!Immediately, I started my lightness kung fu, ran up to stop him with all my strength, swiped my sword across, a long gash split open in the horse's neck, and fell into the snow screaming with the blood sprayed out, replaying The falling snowflakes are like stormy waves.The man on the horse was also thrown out violently, and he rolled in the snow for a long distance before he stopped, got up with fierce eyes, grabbed his two knives, and slashed at me aggressively.

I jumped back a few times to avoid it.The other four people also gathered around at this time, Sen Ran showed their weapons.

Of the five men, one wields a pair of knives, one wields a sword, and the rest hold iron hooks.The martial arts do not belong to the same family, but they are all masters.

The previous fight has consumed a lot of my energy, and now I want to have a better chance of winning, I must fight quickly!I dodged forward, and with the first few strikes, I broke up their encirclement. During the fight, I picked up the iron hook in the hand of one of them.The man fell down with a muffled grunt.

I didn't pause and immediately turned around, taking advantage of lightness kung fu to roam the formation, the sword wind was fast and dense, and the moves were aimed at the vital parts without dragging the water.The remaining four probably saw that I was desperate and rushed to chase the owner without any intention of fighting, so they left two to entangle me and then escaped and ran away.

The two assassins with iron hooks cooperated tacitly. Although their moves were not vicious, they could always block people's way.They just want to drag me down and wear them down slowly, and then kill me when I lose my strength.But thanks to their unhurried style of play, I took advantage of the gap and quickly put the pills in my mouth, then waved my sleeves and sprinkled the powder in front of the two of them. Once the cold wind cleared, they couldn't move for an instant.

Swinging the sword away, there was a muffled sound, and the two of them clutched their necks and fell short, their mouths twitching and bleeding gushing out, and their wide-open eyeballs were full of resentment.

There are two more... I took a breath and turned my head to look, the hand holding the sword was already trembling a little.Lightly touch the snow and rush forward, chasing in the direction where the owner left with the fastest speed.

The strong wind whizzed by my ears, and the force of the snowflakes hitting my face also increased.I followed the horseshoe tracks into the woods.Looking at the rapidly retreating bushes to the side, it seemed as if he had returned to the time when Merlin went to battle in a trance.It's just that the mood is completely different.

I feel like I'm in a trance right now.Crazy and bloodthirsty.

The figure holding the sword in front was pulled closer by me a little bit.He turned his head and saw me chasing me wildly, his expression changed suddenly, and immediately after being startled, he threw two darts at me.I sideways dodged, slashed my sword to cut away a mass of congealed ice and snow, flipped my wrist up, and hit the back of his head with a huff.He hurriedly dodged but stumbled, staggered forward and fell to the ground, but I had already caught up, and landed on the back of his neck with a heavy foot, twisted it hard, and then leaped up with the force, knocking the click The cracking sound and screams were left behind.

There is only one left.I stared at the black shadow not far away that had almost caught up with the owner.At this time, he also noticed me, and after struggling to speed up a few steps, he threw the knife in his hand forward and swept it towards the horse the owner was riding.

With a click, the horse screamed and fell down, and the owner also fell down.The assassin flew up, raised the knife and was about to fall on him, I quickly swung the sword out with my hand, slashing his back right in the middle.He knelt down on the ground with a cry of pain, but he still didn't give up. He got up frantically and raised his knife to slash at the owner again. Fortunately, he was blocked by a figure rushing up in time, and then he was killed with a sword.

I picked up the sword and ran to the owner's side to help him up, staring defensively at the masked man who helped.I don't know if this person is an enemy or a friend, but he feels somewhat familiar.

"Go! There is a carriage ahead, you will be safe when you leave this forest." The masked man wiped the blood on his sword, and said solemnly: "I will stop those people."

"Who are you?" I tried to hold my breath so that he wouldn't see my fatigue.

"Stop asking. Go quickly." He didn't seem to have any malicious intentions, so he raised his sword and walked to the other side of the valley.I looked at the back hesitantly.Although this person deliberately suppressed his voice, how could I not hear it?And, I recognize those eyes.This masked man... is clearly Shanzhong!

But why did Shanzhong appear here?Does it have anything to do with the third prince? !I was full of surprises, and the more I thought about it, the more complicated it became.He quickly took the owner away, and after walking a few steps, he found the carriage.

Drove all night.When the cock crowed and the dawn broke the next day, they rushed to the post pavilion and finally breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Chu Ling and the others waiting there.It seemed that they had arrived a long time ago, cleaned up, bandaged their wounds, and put on clean clothes.Just a little attention, I found that Yinshan's gang of slaves had lost more than half, and there were only three hidden guards left.

Chu Ling's face was serious, he didn't say anything, and I didn't ask any more questions. He just ate something, washed his face, and left again.Finally, before dark, we arrived at Que Jing, the capital of Dai Viet.

After all, it is the imperial capital, and Quejing is far more prosperous and lively than Shuntian City.In addition, it is the New Year's Eve, which is even more festive.And the red lanterns hanging all over the street also began to light up at this moment.Lights from far and near set off the thin snow on the tiles in front of the courtyards along the street, inviting the night out when the curtain falls at dusk, and the warmth is a bit illusory and blurred.

A group of us came to the gate of the imperial city and looked up at the red palace walls and the majestic towers. We didn't know whether we should breathe a sigh of relief or raise our hearts even more.Inside is the place where the emperors and royal families live, where solemnity and luxury coexist.Now the princess is trapped inside.

And what awaits us is still unknown what kind of storm it is.

"I didn't want to step here again." The owner of the villa opened the curtain, looked up at the eaves corners of the city tower that were raised like wings, and sighed.

I helped him get off the carriage, and I asked the doubts that had been accumulated in my heart: "Yin Xiang, the murder of the Jin Palace this time, is it related to the third prince?"

"King Ding?" He didn't care that I changed my address.He smiled, but said: "That child is very much like the King of Shanyang back then." Then he straightened his clothes and walked towards the scarlet palace gate, leaving only an unclear sentence: "Mountain and rain desire It’s all over the building.”

What do you mean, is something serious going to happen in the palace?I frowned, and was about to follow, but was stopped by Chu Ling: "The princess told me that you cannot enter the palace."

"What?" I was stunned: "Why don't you let me together? I want to see her."

"No." Chu Ling shook his head, "Will that be dangerous?"

"Dangerous?" Then I should go, okay?When I saw that the owner had already taken out the token, I was even more anxious.But Chu Ling firmly stopped him: "Don't make things difficult for me."

"When I came here, I didn't see that you said that I was not allowed to enter the palace!"

"Master Hua, you have already violated the order by insisting on escorting the owner with us. If anything goes wrong, I can't explain to the owner, so I have to die to apologize!"

"you!"

"Lord Hua, you have to trust the princess." She held my hand, and her tone slowed down, but her expression remained cold: "Take Yinshan's brothers to stay outside the palace and wait for news, and take a good rest to recuperate. There will be something." Then he handed over a piece of jade ring, "If you have anything to do, go to the shopkeeper Li at the Bulan Gold Shop on Nanhuai Street, and she will take care of you."

"...Okay." After a stalemate for a while, I still couldn't hold her back, so I could only accept the jade ring and stay there, watching their backs disappear into the palace gate blankly.

The vermilion door slowly closed and the key was dropped.My heart sank more and more.

The author has something to say:

A certain flower: ╮(╯▽╰)╭Hehe, you want me to stay outside the palace obediently and wait for news?no way! ("▔*▔)/I want to climb the wall!!
