The accident happened so quickly that Xu Zhen could hardly react except to get off his horse and escape.
He could barely tell that this group of gangsters might be coming for Meng Qingxi.
But he couldn't understand why the other party first shot an arrow into the tree trunk and then shot Meng Qingxi's shoulder.
Also, since you wanted to kill Meng Qingxi, why did you shoot him directly in the shoulder instead of his vitals? Now, why bother to fight and show up?
Although I can’t understand it, the situation must be bad!
Since there was no carriage with a carriage, Qinyin was also riding on another horse. Xu Zhen quickly pulled her off the horse and hid behind the horse together.
Qinyin was naturally frightened and hugged Xu Zhen tightly, not daring to say a word.
Soon enough, in the blink of an eye, the first gangster had already rushed forward.
This man's steps are light and his sword is sharp. Just one move after another shows that his martial arts skills are extraordinary.
Although there were many people around Meng Qingxi, they were obviously just soldiers and generals. At this moment, they were all dumbfounded in place, watching helplessly as the first gangster stabbed Meng Qingxi with his sword.
Uh-huh!
Unexpectedly, as soon as the gangster thrust out his sword, a spurt of blood suddenly burst out from his arm!
Oh ah……
The gangster was in pain and the black sword in his hand fell to the ground.
And almost instantly, a group of black shadows jumped out from the woods on the left, and landed among the men in black in the blink of an eye.
Wow!
Xu Zhen looked through the gap in the saddle, and his heart was suddenly overjoyed, and his worries were immediately put down.
But the black shadow was a female Taoist nun wearing a Xuanjiao royal robe. The female Taoist nun was elegant, cold and proud, holding a black Emei thorn in her left hand. She was none other than the Bingshan Jade Sister - Li Chan'er!
As soon as Li Chaner landed, she pulled out the Emei thorn that stabbed the gangster's arm, and then fought with several other gangsters!
Stable!
Xu Zhen suddenly thought that it was probably the letter he wrote to Li Chan'er before setting off that played a role.
The content of the letter was very simple. Xu Zhen invited Li Chaner to go with him to Yaochang Village to investigate the mass poisoning case.
Of course, the reason why I wrote this invitation letter was just to find an opportunity to get close to Miss Li.
Because Li Sixiong was seriously ill, Xu Zhen expected that Li Chan'er had not left Yanping, and if they wanted to hide in peace, the secret room would undoubtedly be a good place to go.
Therefore, when Xu Zhen discovered that the door to the secret room had been closed, he expected that Li Chan'er would be able to see the letter he left for her.
Of course, seeing the letter is one thing, but whether they come or not is another matter.
But now it seems that Li Chan'er obviously couldn't let go of this case, so she still followed, but she happened to encounter the sudden attack in front of her.
Ouch...
Oops!
Xu Zhen suddenly thought that Li Chan'er wouldn't have been secretly watching him solve the case the whole time, right?
Then... about giving tutoring lessons to Qin Yin... she...
puff……
Xu Zhen was distracted when he saw another crossbow arrow hit Meng Qingxi's chest. The pain was so painful that he spurted out a mouthful of blood!
Oh well...
Only then did Xu Zhen come back to his senses and realized that the gangsters in front of him were not as easy to deal with as he had imagined.
He peeked and saw two more gangsters rushing out of the woods on the left, totaling six in total.
Xu Zhen finally understood that no wonder the crossbow arrow hit the tree trunk at the beginning. It turned out that Li Chan'er had already discovered that these gangsters were planning something evil and took action in time.
At this moment, six of them, including the masked gangster with an injured arm, surrounded Li Chan'er, and the fight was extremely fierce.
Xu Zhen had seen Li Chan'er take action. Even if he was as strong as Shen Yu, he had not gone through ten rounds under her hands.
So according to common sense, these six people should be captured by Li Chaner within one minute, right?
Thinking of this, Xu Zhen looked at her wrist habitually, thinking she was wearing a watch!
When he raised his head again, he realized that his estimate was actually quite accurate.
Because when he looked over again, as Li Chan'er's two Emei thorns moved freely and disappeared, all six gangsters had been stabbed and fell!
So...so handsome!
Li Chan'er's movements are free and elegant, sharp and agile, especially the ponytail swinging back and forth, the slender figure, and the delicate facial features...
However, the next scene broke the harmony in Xu Zhen's eyes.
Because after the six gangsters saw that they were injured and no longer capable of fighting, they actually swallowed Xiuzhong pills, then spurted blood from their mouths, and died suddenly on the spot!
"oh oh……"
At the same time, Xu Zhen heard Meng Qingxi's wailing, but saw his chest heaving violently, as if he was about to die.
No way?
Are crossbow arrows poisonous?
Xu Zhen could no longer sit still and rushed to Meng Qingxi to ask.
But when he looked closer, he discovered that Meng Qingxi had been hit by four or five crossbow arrows, and one was missing from his heart. He was obviously hopeless!
"Woo... Wu..." Meng Qingxi still raised her arms and opened and closed her mouth, as if she had something to say.
Xu Zhen quickly moved closer to his mouth and heard Meng Qingxi say a name with difficulty: "Qing...Qinghui...Meng Qinghui...he...oh..."
ah?
Xu Zhen was confused for a moment. Isn't Meng Qinghui the richest man in Yaochang Village who drank poisonous wine?
Why did Meng Qingxi mention his name?
"You..." When Xu Zhen looked over again, he found that Meng Qingxi had expired and his right hand was still resting on his heart.
this……
how so?
Ever since Xu Zhen traveled through time, he has never encountered such an uncontrollable accident.
There was no warning in advance, it came suddenly and violently.
Meng Qingxi's identity is obviously not simple, right?
At this moment, everyone else was stunned, hiding behind trees and shivering.
Although Li Chan'er has solved all the gangsters, they feel that Li Chan'er seems to be more terrifying than the gangsters.
"What did he tell you?"
At this time, after confirming that all six masked gangsters were dead, Li Chaner turned around and pointed at Meng Qingxi's body and asked Xu Zhen.
It's over.
This sentence alone was enough to confirm Xu Zhen's guess that Li Chan'er had been quietly paying attention to him since the first day he entered Yaochang Village to investigate the case.
For a moment, Xu Zhen seemed to be naked, and Li Chaner could see clearly.
"Hey," Li Chan'er's face darkened, "I want to ask you something!"
"Miss, I..." Xu Zhen looked at Meng Qingxi's body, then at the bodies of the six masked gangsters, then he felt heartbroken and said to Li Chan'er very solemnly, "I want to announce something now. !You don’t have to agree to it, but you’d better think about it carefully.”
"What?" Li Chan'er shook off the blood on her Emei thorns and asked, "What do you mean? What's the matter?"
"I want..." Xu Zhen said resolutely, "I want to pursue you!!! Be my girlfriend... oh... be my fiancée?"
Uh-huh...
In an instant, the entire forest fell silent.
Everyone hiding behind the tree was stunned, and the maid Qin Yin also covered her mouth in surprise.
"You..." Li Chan'er was also confused and immediately raised her right Emei thorn to point at Xu Zhen, "Are you looking for death?"
"Being close to each other is not as good as forgetting each other in the world," Xu Zhen said extremely seriously, "But I can't forget you! I don't want to forget you in the world. I have the right to pursue you..."
Before the word "profit" came out of his mouth, the blood-stained Emei thorn was already stuck in Xu Zhen's throat...
