Zhao Rang held Yuan Kexin in his arms and ran all the way, not daring to stop at all.
After seeing Liangquan, who was still drinking behind the counter of the casino, he squinted his eyes and said softly:
"My lord, please go ahead and come back next time to make a fortune!"
Zhao Rang didn't have time to say anything to him. He didn't have time to take a breath until the back window was rolled out again and he stood on the long street.
Holding someone in your arms is indeed a heavy burden.
I looked around, but I didn't see a place where I could rest temporarily.
He could only put Yuan Kexin down slowly and let her head rest on his shoulder for the time being, waiting for her to wake up.
A gust of evening wind blew from the far corner of the street, and Zhao Rang quickly covered Yuan Kexin's cheek with his sleeves, trying to block the blowing sand for her.
As soon as her body moved, Yuan Kexin let out a sweet moan and slowly opened her eyes.
Zhao Rang didn't know that Yuan Kexin had woken up, but he still held his sleeves firmly in front of her until Yuan Kexin said:
"I can't breathe!"
Zhao Rang said in surprise:
"you're awake!"
It seemed that the princess did not lie to him, and Yuan Kexin was indeed drugged. After the medicine takes effect, you will wake up on your own.
"Where...where?"
"What's wrong with me?"
Although Yuan Kexin woke up, her head hurt badly.
People who are drugged basically do this. After waking up, you must drink a lot of water to gradually recover.
Yuan Kexin didn't remember anything at the moment, her body was still very limp, and she didn't even have the strength to stand up, so she could only continue to lean on Zhao Rang.
This made her very embarrassed, so she could only lower her head and not look at Zhao Rang to avoid further embarrassment.
Compared with Yuan Kexin's thoughts on girls, Zhao Rang is actually not much better.
Despite his cheerful and lively talk on weekdays, Yuan Kexin is Yuan Mingkong's sister after all, and she is different from those girls in the flower streets and willow alleys.
After his mind was empty for a while, Zhao Rang remembered that Yuan Kexin knew nothing about what happened before, and he spoke to her.
This dispersed the slightly awkward ambiguity between the two.
After all, Yuan Kexin also has some cultivation skills.
After Zhao Rang finished speaking, she luckily adjusted her breath and finally had the strength to stand up slowly.
"never mind?"
Zhao Rang asked.
Yuan Kexin smiled sadly, shook his head and said:
"fine."
"Now...what do we do?"
Looking at Yuan Kexin's fragile appearance, Zhao Rang couldn't help but feel moved, but he forgot to answer.
"I'm going to ask you again, why are you staring at others..."
"Ahem..."
Zhao Rang cleared his throat, gathered his thoughts, and said:
"We have to find your brother!"
Yuan Kexin nodded.
They had to tell Yuan Keming what was discussed between Zhao Rang and Princess Amani of Lan Mo Kingdom as soon as possible, especially the relationship between her and the fourth prince Anzuo, and the current situation in Lan Mo Kingdom.
"I know where he is!"
Yuan Kexin is also a member of the Investigation Division, so he naturally knows the distribution of the Shadow Guards of the Investigation Division in King Lanmo's city.
On the way, Yuan Kexin asked:
"Since we haven't reached an agreement with the princess, do we still have to be wary of them?"
Yuan Kexin shuddered.
Firstly, it was because the drug on her body was not completely healed, and secondly, he felt that there was another enemy in this royal city.
Princess Amani's father is also the head of the kingdom. The energy she possesses and the people she can mobilize must be something even Anzuo can only come close to in this royal city.
"Not yet."
Zhao Rang said simply.
The two seemed to be unable to reach an agreement, but in fact they had a tacit understanding.
Princess Amani actually has no hope for the five hundred thousand feather arrows, as long as they don't fall into Anzuo's hands.
Of course, if the opportunity allowed, she would also want to get half a million feather arrows for nothing. The secret of this would depend on how Zhao Rang and the others grasped it. As long as she doesn't reveal too many flaws and give Amani an opportunity to take advantage of, she won't make any too decisive moves.
"But Xifeng Lie still obeys her orders..."
Yuan Kexin said worriedly.
When she was in the Western Region Business Alliance, she had seen Xifeng Lie's methods, especially the skinned skins of Jin Sanliang and Xuan Lingzi, which made her shudder.
Mentioning Xifeng Lie, Zhao Rang suddenly frowned.
He didn't think deeply about what Her Royal Highness the Princess said before, but in fact there were many unreasonable things in it.
"Xifeng is her younger brother, which means he is also the royal family of Lan Mo Kingdom. The siblings belong to the same tribe, and Anzuo also has a common enemy. Is it reasonable?"
Zhao Rang said:
"Don't forget, those five hundred thousand arrows, we thought from the beginning that Xifeng Lie wanted to take advantage of others! If Xifeng Lie completely obeyed the orders of the royal family of Lan Mo Kingdom, which is the tribe where Princess Amani belongs, now these Shouldn’t the arrow have fallen into their hands?”
Yuan Kexin nodded in understanding. This was indeed a place that didn't make sense.
The reason why Zhao Rang didn't expose Amani when he faced her was because he was worried that she would take advantage of Yuan Kexin in her anger, so she pretended to be a snake with him.
"Then you are worried about me, that's why..."
Yuan Kexin was halfway through speaking, but she closed her mouth in embarrassment.
Zhao Rang was not aware of Yuan Kexin's shyness at all, and then analyzed:
"Furthermore, Lanmo Kingdom is the last among the four kingdoms. How can it cover the sky with one hand in the west wind? Are the other three kingdoms just doing nothing?"
Since Dawei was divided and ruled, the four countries in the Western Regions have been coveting the northern territory of Dawei. But they also know that before fighting against external forces, one must first settle within. If the Western Regions want to go eastward and invade the northern territory of Dawei, they must complete the relative unification of the internal lines. Otherwise, it is just a ball of loose sand. It is estimated that our own people will start fighting before they reach Yangguan, and it will be a grand joke for the whole world!
Among the thirty-six countries, the upper four countries are the most promising to achieve unification. However, since the strength of the four countries is not much different, if one country takes action, the other three countries will not stand idly by.
Now the pressure from Dawei no longer exists. The four countries should be mortal enemies of each other.
According to Zhao Rang and Yuan Mingkong's initial understanding of Xi Feng Lie, Xi Feng Lie obeyed the orders of the leaders of the Four Kingdoms, which meant that Xi Feng Lie's actions must be in line with the common interests of the four countries.
Such a thing is almost impossible to do.
Even among friends, they can't agree on what to eat for lunch, let alone Kamishikoku, who has their own ulterior motives.
The sharp sword of Xifeng Lie only needs to pierce the common enemy of the four upper countries - Dawei. There is nothing worth thinking about.
"You mean, Xifeng Lie is not that simple?"
Zhao Rang sighed and said:
"The water in the west wind may be deeper than the four countries combined. There are many things we don't know."
"What we saw was what he wanted us to see. Just like the big shots who killed Jin Sanliang and Xuan Lingzi, didn't they not even have any clues?"
As a member of the Yuan family, although Yuan Kexin is a girl, she is not stupid.
She reacted immediately and said:
"Is it necessary to turn the whole thing upside down? In fact, the four countries..."
"Shh!"
Zhao Rang made a silent gesture.
Right now it's all speculation.
And even if it was true, there was nothing they could do.
It would be difficult for Zhao Rang and the three of them to find a stable place to stay in this royal city alone. The inn clerk is the best example.
Who would have thought that he was the captain of the bodyguard of Her Royal Highness the Princess?
While talking, Yuan Kexin led Zhao Rang around the corner, but Zhao Rang immediately slowed down.
He thought this street was unusual.
Yuan Ke was pleased to see Zhao Rang like this, and also knew that Zhao Rang must have noticed something was wrong, and immediately looked around.
At this moment, several carriages with huge roofs suddenly rushed out of the alleys on both sides of the street, completely sealing the two of them in the middle.
As soon as Zhao Rang drew out his sword, the roof of the carriage suddenly lifted up, and dozens of people jumped out, all dressed in black and masked. Each of them held a tendon bow in his hand, with a quiver slung across his back.
In one breath, the bow and arrow were already on the string!
Zhao Rang grabbed Yuan Kexin's arm, lifted it up, and pushed it toward the path the two of them had just come out of.
Then he picked up the long knife in his hand, faced the random arrows, and rushed towards the carriage on one side at an extremely fast speed.
Although arrows were shot from both sides, there was still a split second before the arrows were released.
Zhao Rang wanted to kill half of the men before the arrows from behind hit him.
Otherwise, no matter how fast his sword is, he will definitely not be able to withstand it...
The arrows turned into dots of cold stars in the sky.
After colliding with Zhao Rang's blade, sparks arose!
Zhao Rang roared angrily, his eyes were bloodshot, and the knife in his hand was spinning wildly.
If you are any slower, you will be shot into a hedgehog.
Suddenly, a very different sound piercing the sky sounded behind him.
"not good……"
He didn't expect that there was such a master among this group of archers!
After dealing with the arrows fired in front of him, Zhao Rang rushed over desperately while the opponent was reloading his arrows.
Behind him, a meteor seemed to streak through the air!
A jet-black arrow, with its tail feathers made of fine iron, set off an unparalleled wave of air that shattered all the ordinary arrows around it.
A bow that can shoot such an arrow is certainly not an ordinary bow.
Someone who can pull such a bow cannot be an ordinary person!
Of course Zhao Rang knew this, so he rushed to the carriage at the fastest speed in his life and stabbed an archer in the heart.
With a twist of his wrist, he lifted his body up with the blade of the blade, turned it over to his back, and threw it with all his strength at this unusual arrow.
"puff!"
The arrow shot a big hole through the archer's body, but its power was still undiminished!
Fortunately, after being blocked by a human shield, the speed of the arrow was still slow enough for Zhao Rang to dodge.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Zhao Rang immediately pounced to the side.
When he fell to the ground, he did not forget to swing his sword again and cut off the ankles of the three archers.
The three people screamed and fell next to Zhao Rang, who happened to be blocked again.
Taking this opportunity, Zhao Rang rolled on the spot and got out from under the carriage, then jumped deep into the courtyard of a house on the street.
