General's Gown

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Yan Changqing was in a daze, and suddenly heard a terrified scream, like lightning that suddenly tore through the night sky, resounding through the Jiaolu River:

"Not good! There are water bandits!"

Opening his eyes suddenly, Yan Changqing rushed out of the cabin with a few steps at a time, his heart beating violently.

On the black sky like splashed ink in front of him, there is a strange and dazzling golden star, which is rushing down the Luhe River at an extremely fast speed, and the golden flame is getting bigger and bigger, getting closer and getting closer. near-

It's a rocket!

Whoosh whoosh!

Hundreds of arrows bundled with kerosene rushed towards us through the cold milky fog, and the last few cargo ships were instantly set ablaze.There was a scream, and several people couldn't dodge in time, and fell into the river with a plop.

Under the light of the fire, the deep and clear water of the Jiaolu River instantly glowed a tragic scarlet.

A cold light flashed across Yan Changqing's eyes, and he raised his sword and walked out.After walking a few steps, the guard Ah Jing suddenly ran over with blood all over his face and knelt down on the ground: "General! There are many, many water bandit boats chasing after you! Just... right behind!"

Yan Changqing shouted in a deep voice: "How many of our boats were burned?"

"Eight...eight!"

Yan Changqing looked back and saw that the last few boats were almost covered by raging fire, which was likely to spread due to the night wind.The screams and howls on the boat continued, and many people were burnt all over, turning into golden-red burning men, struggling to jump into the river.

Obviously, such a large fire cannot be saved.

Yan Changqing tightly gripped the hilt of the sword, his fingers trembled slightly, and he said through gritted teeth, "Abandon these eight ships and all the guards, board the remaining twelve ships immediately, and advance at full speed!"

"Then... then they..." Ah Jing tremblingly pointed at the black spot at the end of the Jiaolu River.The cargo ship has a very deep draft and a very slow speed. Can it escape?

Before he finished speaking, there was a sudden scream of pain behind him.Helian Rongchuan was hit by an arrow in the back and fell to the ground.

Yan Changqing couldn't help but groan in his heart, filled with regret.

How could I forget this man!

Picking him up, he told Ah Jing, "Hurry up and take His Highness to the fast boat, so that he can take care of him!"

But Helian Rongchuan grabbed Yan Changqing's hand with blood on the corner of his mouth: "Why don't you go?"

Yan Changqing didn't even look at him, but looked at the end of the Jiaolu River from a distance, and said, "I'll be there soon."

"No", Helian Rongchuan fixed Yan Changqing's eyes, already seeing through his thoughts:

"You want to deal with those water bandits alone, don't you?"

Yan Changqing pushed Ah Jing up and shouted angrily, "Hurry up and leave!"

However, Helian Rongchuan looked at Yan Changqing motionlessly as if roots had taken root under his feet.

Ah Jing was trembling and sandwiched between the two of them, either leaving or staying, she knelt on the ground with a plop, and said, "General, hurry up and withdraw with us! This... so many arrows, so many people, it's almost death." !"

"Listen, even your little guard understands the truth, don't you understand?"

Helian Rongchuan said in a deep voice: "In the whole world, there are not many water bandits who don't give us Dongyun people face. They are all like wolves, tigers and leopards, eating people without spit out bones. If you insist on sending them to death, I will I must stop you!"

Helian Rong Chuan spat out a mouthful of blood, and continued: "If you don't want to leave, I won't leave either. I was shot through my heart by thousands of arrows and shot to death here!"

"You..." Yan Changqing was silent, and a different emotion surged up in his heart.Looking at the black spot getting closer and closer from the end of the Jiaolu River, he sighed and said:

"Okay, I'll go with you."

The night wind whistling in his ears, Yan Changqing put Helian Rongchuan's arms on his shoulders, and lightly touched the roof of the unburned cabin with his toes. boat.

The target of the water bandits is the slow cargo ship.The boat was the safest place to be at the moment.

Helian Rongchuan felt a little relieved, and was about to say something, but the smile froze on his face suddenly.

When were his hands clasped together unconsciously?

The iron chain buckle is shining with silver light, and the other end is locked on the ship's side.Obviously, for a while, he can't solve it by himself.

"sorry."

Yan Changqing apologized very lightly.Facing Helian Rongchuan's surprised and disappointed face, Yan Changqing couldn't say anything except "I'm sorry".There are too many things to bear on his shoulders.

He Lian Rongchuan raised his head, almost instantly, he seemed to see a ripple in Yan Changqing's eyes like black mercury, but then, Yan Changqing lowered his eyes, turned his head and left without looking back.

Helian Rongchuan shook his head slowly, with a tragic and ironic wry smile on the corner of his mouth.

General Yan, indeed General Yan.

A gust of wind blew up, Yan Changqing didn't look back, his clothes fluttered, and he disappeared like an eagle into the fiery night.

"boom!"

Suddenly, a silver flame burst out in the dark night, and a huge, bright firework bloomed in the night sky.

On the cargo ship, everyone looked up to the sky. In the bright silver flames, dozens of commoner guards suddenly tore off their coats, revealing their hard, black armor, shining coldly in the night sky!

Xuanjia Army!

Ah Jing stood on the deck, dumbfounded.It never occurred to him that the brother who usually jokes with him is actually the famous Xuanjia Army?

Helian Rongchuan slowly leaned his back against the ship's side, his brown eyes reflected brilliant flames.He narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.

These thirty Xuanjia troops were the elite Xuanjia troops that Yan Changqing secretly transferred back from the old frontier after the Battle of Baiya Mountain.

With an order, the Xuanjia Army quickly gathered around Yan Changqing.He gave a few orders in a low voice, and the Xuanjia Army quickly dispersed and disappeared into the night.

He was surrounded by flames behind him.Even the large reeds on both sides of the river bank were set ablaze, and the river was ablaze, with screams and blood rushing to the sky, like hell.Yan Changqing bit the cold-glazed dagger horizontally in his mouth, turned over and jumped into the black Jiaolu River water without hesitation.

On the other side of the Jiaolu River, thirty narrow black wooden boats were moving rapidly.On the front assault boat, the eight water bandits were all dressed in black and kept urging loudly: "Keep shooting arrows, hurry up! Hurry up!"

Before the words were finished, the long boat, which was running smoothly, suddenly shook slightly suspiciously.

A masked man took a step forward, staring closely at the black river below the boat.

The night was too dark to see anything.

Nothing unusual?

The masked man breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to retreat, when suddenly, the longboat shook violently again!

The blazing fire instantly illuminated the originally dark and gloomy river.The masked man's eyes widened in horror.

Why is there such a bright silver light in the river water!

But he had no chance to think about anything else.Yan Changqing jumped up from the bottom of the boat, a flash of silver light penetrated the throat of the man in black!

On several other black wooden boats, the elite of the Xuanjia Army also jumped up and fought fiercely.In an instant, blood flew and screams continued.

However, these water bandits were also well-trained. They panicked for a moment, then quickly calmed down. Thirty fast boats turned around and surrounded Yan Changqing and others, trying to kill them.

A white bolt of lightning pierced the sky.

Rumble! ! !Bean-sized raindrops fell with the thunder.

Yan Changqing was panting violently. His shoulders, arms, and abdomen were all slightly or severely stabbed. Into a blood-colored splash.

One after another, the Xuanjia soldiers fell, but he still gritted his teeth and fought hard, like a fierce beast that knows no pain and is fighting to the death!

He is surrounded.Surrounding him were sharp swords, but none of the masked men dared to go forward alone.

In this sudden fierce battle, they and the men in black were also seriously injured.Obviously they have nearly 240 people, but the other party's number is less than a fraction of theirs.But it was these 30 people who killed nearly half of them in one fell swoop!

How could they be in such a mess?

It seems that everyone on the other side has undergone long-term and severe training, and when they make a move, they have an unstoppable killing intent, and they are not afraid of death at all!

Especially the young man who was surrounded by them, his shots were extremely sharp, fast and accurate.Several of their companions often had their chest pierced by the sharp blade in the man's hand before they could see his movements clearly.

Although the Xuanjia army brought by Yan Changqing fell one by one, the men in black were already afraid and did not dare to go forward to die without authorization.They just surrounded Yan Changqing in groups, and wanted to wait for the moment when he was exhausted and let go, before encircling and suppressing him!

Yan Changqing gritted his teeth and supported his body.He looked back, and only a small dot could be seen on the cargo ship full of temperate.This group of water bandits was disrupted by them and nearly half of them were wiped out. Even if they catch up with the cargo ship, they may not be able to succeed.

Thinking of this, Yan Changqing pulled a tragic smile from the corner of his mouth.

The heavily surrounded man in black moved a little, and split into two sides from back to front to make way. One of them was wearing a black robe, most of his face was covered by a wide hood, only half of his raised pointed eyes were exposed. jaw.The man in black approached step by step, and carefully looked at Yan Changqing who was surrounded by many people but still held his head high and refused to give in with great interest.

Although he had suffered so many injuries, the man in front of him still looked like an angry and proud beautiful black panther.

The black robe couldn't help but let out a sigh from the bottom of his heart.

No wonder……

Gently raising his chin, the masked man beside him took a step forward and shouted: "The leader ordered that if you are willing to surrender, your life will be spared!"

Yan Changqing lowered his head and smiled slightly, his lips moved slightly.

The black robe said: "What did you say?"

Black hair drooped down to cover Yan Changqing's eyes, making it difficult to see his expression clearly.He knelt down on the ground and gently waved to the man in black.

The masked man beside him quickly reminded: "My lord, there is danger!"

The man in black hesitated.

Yan Changqing raised his head and saw blood on the corner of his mouth, his eyes were full of contempt, his pale lips moved again, but he still couldn't hear what he said.

It's strange, why is it that this man is obviously surrounded and has no way to retreat, but it seems that they are the ones who are at a disadvantage?

Hmph, after being hacked so many times, I can't even stand upright, so what danger can I have?How dare you provoke him!

Deeply stung by the sarcasm and contempt in his eyes, the man in black snorted coldly, took a step forward and grabbed Yan Changqing's collar regardless of the obstruction.

Yan Changqing raised his head, the rain slid across his cheeks, he should be in a panic, but seeing this man's pale face with a sword on his back without fear, the man in black felt his heart move.

No wonder……

The thought just now flashed through the mind of the man in black robe.

It turned out to be more than just pretty.This man is still stubborn.Both brave and stubborn.

What could make him succumb?

Just as he was in a daze, he saw a faint smile suddenly blooming on Yan Changqing's lips.

A trace of panic suddenly flashed in the black robed man's heart.He suddenly realized, was he too close to this dangerous man?

Fearing that something might change, he hurriedly took a step back, but it was already too late——

I saw Yan Changqing suddenly turned over and stood up, the palm of his hand flashed silver, as fast as lightning, and the wind was blowing in his ears, and he went straight to the mouth of the man in black!The masked man beside him hurriedly stopped him, but Yan Changqing was faster and fiercer than them.

Help!

The man in black let out a shrill scream, his face paled in shock, he staggered back, and fell to the ground unexpectedly.

The hood slipped off, revealing a waterfall of blue hair and a pale face——

woman? !

Yan Changqing's eyes widened in disbelief.

How could the water bandit leader be a woman!

wrong!something wrong!

It was too late and then too soon, taking advantage of Yan Changqing's moment of stagnation, the pretty girl took the opportunity to roll and crawl back an inch, as if she saw something behind Yan Changqing, her eyes lit up, and she shouted:

"Brother Rong Chuan, save me!"

This sound was like a thunderbolt from the clear sky.

Yan Changqing's heart trembled, and suddenly he heard the sound of piercing the sky coming from behind, but he had no time to dodge, his right shoulder hurt, and a slender short arrow pierced into his flesh and blood.The arrow didn't penetrate deeply, but almost instantly, his right shoulder became numb.

Arrowheads are poisonous.

Yan Changqing turned around very slowly, looking at the direction of the poisonous arrow without blinking.

What was reflected in his eyes was a familiar figure.

Helian Rongchuan slowly lowered his bow, as if he had said something to him, but Yan Changqing's eyes went dark and he couldn't hear anything.
