Chen Jiajun and Li Zian both screamed inwardly after seeing the crossbow arrows.
This group of people is definitely not as simple as bandits. They must have known Li Zian's identity and came here specifically to deal with him.
The Chen family's men risked their lives and approached the carriage, and said to Li Zian anxiously: "Master Shizi, although the Chen family's carriage can protect against feather arrows, it is still difficult to defend against such a large crossbow.
"And if the opponent has a trebuchet or something, the carriage has a large target and will become a target, which is even more dangerous."
Li Zian knew these truths, and his mind was running rapidly at this time, trying to find the best solution.
But in this situation where the enemy is in the dark and we are in the clear, no matter what we do, it seems dangerous.
It wouldn't matter if it was just him. The most important thing was that Shen Tianshu was still in the car.
She doesn't know how to box or kick, has no strength to bind a chicken, and has no ability to resist at all.
Not to mention if he was caught... Li Zian didn't dare to imagine what would happen.
Li Zian couldn't figure it out, so he turned around and asked Chen Jiajun's people: "Then what do you think I should do now?"
Chen Jiajun's man said: "Master Shizi, the position chosen by the other party, with them at the top and us at the bottom, is indeed a disadvantage.
But there is a cliff on the other side. If the prince can lead Lady Tong down, we will fight to the death to block all enemies for you two.
"If they want to chase you, they have to step over our bodies."
When Li Zian and Shen Tianshu heard this, they knew that more than a dozen people from Chen Jiajun were ready to sacrifice themselves here.
Li Zi'an had mixed feelings, and Shen Tianshu lowered his head with red eyes.
But at this critical juncture, they were no longer allowed to hesitate.
Li Zian forcefully patted the shoulder of the person in front of him and choked with sobs: "I, Li Zian, will always remember your kindness.
"If I can escape by chance this time, I will definitely come back to bury you, let you rest in peace, and set up a memorial tablet for you in the temple."
"Your Majesty, please take Lady Tong away quickly, otherwise it will be too late!" Chen Jiajun's men urged as they watched more and more enemies pouring out of the mountain.
Li Zian stopped being emotional, packed some necessities with him, picked up Shen Tianshu and got out of the car.
Under the cover of the carriage and the escort of Chen Jiajun, Li Zian came to the edge of the cliff, tied the rope handed over by Chen Jiajun and prepared to take Shen Tianshu down.
The cliff here is very high, and there are many plants and trees blocking the cliff, making it impossible to see the bottom at a glance.
Unexpectedly, Shen Tianshu said, "Is there any rope? Let's go down separately. It's too dangerous for you to hold me."
"You..." Li Zian wanted to say if you can do it.
Shen Tianshu interrupted him and said, "When I met the Dowager Empress, I had just climbed down from the cliff."
The Chen Jiajun people looked at Li Zian, waiting for him to express his position.
Li Zian also knew that it was more dangerous for two people to commit suicide together. Seeing Shen Tianshu's firm attitude, he could only choose to believe her.
He gritted his teeth and nodded: "Give me the rope!"
Li Zian personally helped Shen Tianshu tie the rope, and only felt relieved after making sure it was tied very firmly.
"You climb down first, and then I'll go down."
Li Zian stretched out his hand to straighten Shen Tianshu's messy hair on her forehead, and couldn't help but kiss her forehead.
Normally, Li Zian should go down first so that he can watch Shen Tianshu from below, which can serve as a reminder and help.
But with a cliff ahead and gangsters behind him, he could only choose to stand between Shen Tianshu and the pursuers to ensure her safety to the greatest extent.
Shen Tianshu pulled the rope around his waist, took a deep breath and started to climb down.
Seeing her descending a certain distance, her technique and movements seemed to be experienced and not just showing off, Li Zian relaxed a little and started to climb down.
After seeing the two people go down, Chen Jiajun left only one person here to watch in case someone came to destroy the rope, and the others devoted themselves to fighting the gangsters.
Shen Tianshu didn't know how long he had been climbing. His hands and feet were a little sore, but he still couldn't see the bottom at all.
She took a few hard breaths and felt that the cliff was like a bottomless pit.
Fortunately, as soon as he looked up, he could see Li Zian coming down not far from him, which gave Shen Tianshu a lot of strength.
She didn't want to be a drag on Li Zian. No matter how deep the cliff was, she would work hard to climb to the end.
At the beginning, Shen Tianshu could still hear the sounds of fighting on the cliff, but then the sounds became quieter and quieter.
I don’t know if it’s because they are too far away or if Chen Jiajun above is already...
Shen Tianshu didn't dare to think about it carefully, so he could only try his best to climb down.
After climbing for a while, she felt that she could vaguely see the ground below. She was excitedly preparing to raise her head to tell Li Zian the good news. Who knew that her foot suddenly missed her step, and she quickly fell down and fell heavily on a ledge. on the rock.
Shen Tianshu was thrown so hard that his vision went black for a while, and the hand that was holding the rope tightly was bruised and bloody.
"Are you okay?" Li Zian was startled by her and shouted while speeding up to come and help.
Unexpectedly, a loud cracking sound suddenly came from above the head.
Shen Tianshu looked up and saw a huge crossbow arrow flying down from the top of the cliff.
"Get away!" Shen Tianshu was so frightened that he was scared to death and yelled at the top of his lungs.
But her hands and feet were already weak and she no longer had the strength to evade.
Li Zian looked down and realized that if he dodged, the crossbow arrow would definitely hit Shen Tianshu.
So he reached out and grabbed the tree trunk next to him, turned slightly sideways, and wanted to kick the crossbow arrow away when it flew in front of him.
But just as he stabilized his body and prepared to receive the flying crossbow arrows, someone above suddenly cut off his rope.
Li Zian's body suddenly shook violently.
The small trees on the cliff could only be used to lend strength and could not support his full weight.
In the blink of an eye, Li Zian turned into a face-down position with his back facing the crossbow.
He looked at Shen Tianshu, who was looking up at him, almost going crazy with anxiety, and gave her a smile.
"Get away quickly, I know you can avoid it, you..." Shen Tianshu shouted with tears streaming down his face.
But the crossbow arrows arrived in the blink of an eye.
Shen Tianshu wanted to close his eyes and couldn't bear to look.
But he couldn't bear to close his eyes, fearing that this would be the last time he saw Li Zian.
Shen Tianshu vaguely saw a dark shadow flash past, and then blood was sprayed all over his head and face.
"Li Zian!" Shen Tianshu was so covered in blood that he couldn't open his eyes, and tears kept pouring out.
Tears washed away the blood that spurted into his eyes, and Shen Tianshu vaguely saw that Li Zian's body had been penetrated by a huge crossbow arrow.
"No!" Shen Tianshu was like crazy. He didn't know where he got the strength from, and suddenly started to climb up the rock wall.
"Please, hold on, I, I will definitely be able to cure you..."
