The woman didn't do any last-hitting, and just stared at Beidi Ranger with a smile.
Against the backdrop of darkness, that incomparably beautiful smile sent chills down the Beidi Ranger's back. He wanted to shout loudly to remind his companions, but unfortunately his throat was completely cut and he couldn't make any sound.
Just when Beidi Ranger's consciousness was gradually blurring, his companions who were following him stuck a torch on the ground, quickly supported him, and shouted in panic: "Brother, what's wrong with you? Is it that old woman? She is here where?!"
Beidi Ranger could not make any sound, and could only rely on his last bit of consciousness to stare at the gap behind his companion.
The companion was startled and almost subconsciously swung his short sword towards the gap.
pity……
Still a step too slow.
Before the short gong struck the gap, Li Xiaolan had already taken the lead and struck the short gong previously captured from Qingshizi Village into the opponent's shoulder. The thin armor is better than nothing, but when faced with the short armor with astonishing ability to break armor, it is like paper, and it penetrates instantly.
As blood splattered, the cavalryman swayed, and before dying, he roared: "In the cave!"
At the same time, Li Xiaolan had jumped out of the gap and without hesitation smashed the short sword into the cavalry Tianling Gai. Before he could pull it out, he heard a rush of footsteps behind him.
The deputy lieutenant of the Rangers, who had a strong back and a strong look on his face, came in a hurry and threw the torch directly at Li Xiaolan.
While Li Xiaolan dodged sideways, Lieutenant Youqi's short swords were also coming one after another.
Li Xiaolan tried her best to block it, but unfortunately the difference in strength was too great. While blocking the fatal blow, she was "smashed" against the rock wall with both herself and the enemy. She was violently impacted and coughed incessantly.
One move determines the outcome!
Seeing that Li Xiaolan was gone, the deputy lieutenant's eyes did not relax at all. He gripped the short sword and shouted in a cold voice: "Woman, where did you learn your assassination skills? You pursued me all the way and killed seven of my brothers in a row! If It’s not that I force you into a dead end, making it difficult to use my skills. If I want to capture you, I don’t know how many people will die.”
Speaking of this, the deputy lieutenant's eyes showed endless anger and resentment, and he gritted his teeth: "Don't worry, we are only arresting the Qin Cheng family. As for you, we will cut you into minced meat to commemorate my seven brothers!"
Although the lieutenant was furious, he was even more shocked.
This seemingly weak woman in front of me is as dangerous as a poisonous scorpion!
The task that should have been easily completed not only delayed time, but also resulted in continuous losses of troops. Even the deputy lieutenant who had been on the battlefield for many years could not help but feel numb in his back when faced with such a snake and scorpion who was proficient in assassination.
Li Xiaolan took a deep breath. Although her eyes remained firm and unwavering, her heart was filled with despair.
If he let his hands and feet go, Li Xiaolan had ten thousand ways to play Deputy Lieutenant Ranger to death.
It's a pity... Along the way, he was either chased and intercepted by cavalry or forced into pits, all of which were tactics that Li Xiaolan was not good at.
Now, facing the lieutenant with amazing physical strength and superb martial arts, Li Xiaolan knew that she would never be able to defeat the lieutenant in a head-on confrontation.
Could it be that God wants to kill my mother and daughter? !
Just when Li Xiaolan was about to fight to the death, a noisy and rapid roar suddenly came from behind the dark mine.
"who!"
"No! There are pursuers!"
"Border troops?! No...no, not the frontier troops. Brothers, stop them quickly..."
Li Xiaolan and Deputy Lieutenant Youqi were stunned at the same time.
At the same time, the seven rangers located behind the mine were attacked by nine guards without warning.
Although the armor-piercing ability of the short sword is not impressive at all, the rangers who can't stand it wear light armor. One cut can still make a bloody hole.
In addition, these guards, after being trained by the devil from the Tianji Camp and trained by Jing Qianying, can move extremely fast and use extremely swift methods.
Almost as soon as they met, two rangers were stabbed to death with random knives.
The remaining five rangers threw torches in a hurry and raised their short swords to resist.
result……
The guard who was supposed to be fighting in close combat with a short sword suddenly stretched out three rifles.
The three of them stood side by side, just in time to block the narrow mine. The three rifles took advantage of their length and stabbed the five rangers to death with a single blow.
Before the deputy ranger could react, the brothers' chaotic shouts disappeared.
Immediately afterwards...
Several torches used by the rangers were thrown over, and the flames illuminated the dark pits. When the ranger deputy lieutenant was stunned, an arrow flew over and hit his right shoulder.
The ranger deputy lieutenant couldn't bear the pain, and dropped his short sword to the ground. He covered his right shoulder and was about to roar with all his strength, but in despair, he discovered that three strangely dressed soldiers in black brocade uniforms were approaching with short bows in their hands.
The distance between the two sides was only ten feet. As long as the three guards let go at the same time, the deputy ranger could be shot dead on the spot.
So what if you are highly skilled in martial arts?
I won't give you a chance for close combat at all!
Just as Lieutenant Ranger closed his eyes and waited for death, he heard a low voice coming from the direction of the cave entrance: "Catch them alive!"
The three guards drew their short bows to full length and aimed at the vital part of the ranger lieutenant, but did not release their arrows.
Li Xiaolan was greatly surprised.
Where did these strangely dressed, yet extremely fast, soldiers come from?
Border troops?
wrong! The border army is not that elite, and now it is under great pressure to defend the border and has no energy to send troops back to search for the Beidi Rangers.
Under Li Xiaolan's puzzled gaze, a young man wearing a long gown, who looked like a scholar at first sight, suddenly appeared in front of Li Xiaolan.
"Third sister?!"
Hearing the sudden "Third Sister", Li Xiaolan was stunned for a moment, and quickly looked up and down at the young man in front of her. She felt very strange at first, but after careful observation, she found that this young man was somewhat similar to the younger brother in her impression. at.
Although Li Xiaolan is in her ancestral homeland, she has already heard about her brother's various "great achievements" in Kyoto.
But now, when he and his mother were in trouble, he actually appeared in front of him...
