In just a blink of an eye, Nan Muze and Yichen disappeared from Liu Shengsheng's sight at the same time.
Liu Shengsheng was equally excited, and immediately used Qing Kung Fu to jump to the tree on the side of the road, and chased after him at a very fast speed.
But later, she realized that her Qinggong could not catch up with them, and because she had not had a good rest, her physical strength could not support her speed.
In the end, she fell far behind.
By the time he caught up with the two of them, it was obviously too late.
It's not a very big road.
Both sides of the road were spattered with blood. Two horses lay dying on the roadside. Next to the horses, there were four corpses.
They are all subordinates sent by Prince Cang's Mansion...
Ahead is a three-way intersection, and two corpses are also lying at the intersection.
Liu Shengsheng panted and jumped to the ground. She saw Nan Muze standing there with an expressionless face, his hands pinched into his flesh.
Yichen also frowned, and his expression was indescribably ugly.
Just listen to what he said: "The people sent by King Cang divided into dozens of groups and chased along the road out of the capital. Originally, they wanted to try their luck to see if they could catch the kidnapper of Xiao Jiu'er. Now it seems , it was this small team that chased down the person who kidnapped Xiao Jiu'er, but unfortunately they had too few people and the other party was too powerful, so they couldn't stop the person at all..."
He walked slowly to the side of the road and murmured to himself, "Fengqing Country is so big. After leaving the capital, there are dozens or hundreds of roads to various borders, and there are countless villages and counties that we passed through... "
"So even if thousands of people are sent out, a small group of people will need to be separated every time they pass a fork in the road. We don't know which way the other party will go. Even if a small group of people can catch up with those people, they will be subdued. Without them, we would have guessed this scenario a long time ago."
"But even so, I watched helplessly as I failed, and the person who kidnapped Xiao Jiu'er was clearly very close at hand. He happened to be not far from us, and we actually missed him. It's really damning!"
Having said this, Yichen punched the tree trunk next to him hard.
The leaves fell to the ground one after another, and Liu Shengsheng stood under the big tree, gaping at the scene in front of her.
"Are we the only ones who came here?"
Yichen shook his head, "After hearing the news, all our men nearby rushed in this direction, but there was another three-way intersection ahead, and we didn't know which direction the group of people would flee, so Cang The king divided the people who were coming into three groups and continued to catch up."
Saying that, Yichen breathed out again, "The important thing is that all the people we caught up with them this time were silenced, so we don't know who the other party is. At present, we can only confirm that Xiao Jiu'er was kidnapped. , and the person who kidnapped him happened to be passing by this road. If you guessed correctly, that person was going to Yundu with Xiao Jiu'er!"
Nan Muze said gloomily: "At least now we can be sure that our choice was right."
Liu Shengsheng's fighting spirit was also aroused, "Yes, although we failed to rescue Xiao Jiu'er this time, we can at least confirm that he was kidnapped, and that person was very close to us just now!"
As she said that, she approached the fork in the road step by step, and said firmly: "I don't know which of these three roads to choose, but I know that no matter which one we choose, we have to work hard next. Maybe this can still Chase her back before they transport Xiao Jiu'er out of Fengqing."
Yichen finally cheered up, "Girl, which way do you think we should go?"
Liu Shengsheng was silent for a moment, "I might choose the middle one, because that road looks much easier, but just because of this, I think that person might choose the two next to it..."
Nan Muze said calmly: "No matter which one you choose, you will eventually head towards the east. His destination is Yundu, and our destination is the same. Whether we can catch up or not, we just need to try our best. After all, Jiu Jiu'er is still in their hands, even if they catch up, they may have to consider Jiu'er's safety."
Liu Shengsheng nodded, "You are right, so actually we are the most
What needs to be done is to find out who kidnapped Xiao Jiu'er. Only in this way can there be a chance for negotiation. "
"Then let's just choose any path, shall we?"
Yichen said seriously, and then said: "No, I packed a large carriage of things. Where is the carriage?"
Liu Shengsheng and Nan Muze looked at each other and said, "It doesn't matter what's in the carriage. Just buy whatever you need along the way. Let's try to catch up first."
Yichen reluctantly glanced back, "Then I'll leave a signal and ask the brothers who come later to take that load of things back, otherwise it will be too wasteful."
While talking, Liu Shengsheng had already found a random road and quickly left there with Nan Muze.
It was noon and the sun was shining brightly.
The three set out again, but after chasing along a road for a long time, there was still no movement.
Finally, they passed a village and bought three horses. The three of them rode the horses and accelerated all the way until it was dark, and then they finally gave up.
It was a small town that was not very big. In fact, she had passed there before, but this was the first time Liu Shengsheng settled in that town.
It was an ordinary inn. None of the three of them had much appetite, so they ate a little and went back upstairs to rest.
If they weren't physically exhausted to the extreme, they might have been able to chase him a long way through the night.
But they were so exhausted that they slept until the next morning.
It was dawn at that time, so the three of them ate a little and continued on their way.
At the same time, a carriage was moving forward at an extremely fast speed on an unknown road.
Children's laughter would come from inside the carriage from time to time, but the people outside the carriage kept their faces straight.
"Master, why don't you knock this child unconscious? Moreover, as soon as he goes to sleep, we have to find a place to rest. This will also affect our journey too much. If we had been traveling day and night, we would have been long ago..."
"Did I let you speak?"
A cold voice came from inside the carriage.
After hearing this, Xiao Gong finally closed his mouth silently.
In the car, Jing Chun held a child helplessly, letting the child pull his hair and clothes, teasing him from time to time, and his expression could not tell how tired he was.
There were two big dark circles under his eyes, but even with a stinky face, the little kid was not scared to tears by him. Instead, he would hold his hand from time to time and let him play with him.
The atmosphere inside the carriage was quite cheerful, but outside the carriage it was gloomy.
On both sides of the carriage, several secret guards were rushing quickly, occasionally complaining softly.
"I have to be fed by others when I eat, and I have to be coaxed when I sleep. Every time I cry, I have to cry for a long time. I really feel that that little kid is not our hostage, but the ancestor we have spent all the hard work to bring back..."
Another secret guard responded in a low voice, "Now the entire Feng Qing Kingdom is chasing us. Logically speaking, we should be on the road day and night. In this way, we will have thrown them far away." No need to rush in and out like this? It’s too dangerous..."
Their voices were very small, but they still reached Jing Chun's ears.
"You know the danger, but you still don't speed up? If you keep nagging, you'll be caught again."
As his voice slowly fell, the speed of the carriage became faster, and everyone's expressions became more solemn...
