After listening to Bai Han's words, Xiao An fell silent. After pondering for a long time, he sighed leisurely, "Now that the matter has come to this, we can only choose him."
"Tomorrow morning you go and deliver my message. Official Liu Xiangnan will be reinstated. He will immediately investigate the assassination of Jing Yun and find the murderer."
Xiao An is strategizing here, but Liu Rumei encounters trouble on the border thousands of miles away.
I thought that the people from the Earth Kingdom would withdraw after dark.
However, Liu Rumei and Xiao Qing waited until the middle of the night, and the lights were still brightly lit in front, and the guards were constantly changing. There seemed to be no intention of retreating.
Liu Rumei had no choice but to take Xiao Qing to change places again, but the two of them ran around for an hour and changed three or four places, with the same result. As long as they could get in and out of the Great Earth Country, no matter whether it was a big road or a small road, they were stuck. .
Seeing this scene, Liu Rumei also understood that the other party was probably coming for her group.
In addition to worrying about herself, Liu Rumei is also worried about Zheng Hai and the others.
I don't know if they have successfully passed the level before them. After thinking about it, Liu Rumei decided to take the risk. After all, if they wait another three to five days, the other party's sentry may not be able to withdraw, but the food they brought can last for two days at most.
Thinking of this, Liu Rumei said to Xiao Qing, "Xiao Qing, the matter has come to this. We have no choice but to rush over. Are you afraid?"
Xiaoqing smiled and shook her head, "Miss, I'm not afraid."
"That's good, then come with me."
Liu Rumei greeted Xiao Qing, and the two of them cautiously moved closer under the cover of the night. Soon they were less than a stone's throw away from the sentry in front.
Liu Rumei observed carefully that there were eight people at this checkpoint, four standing and four relaxing next to the fire. It seemed that there were groups of four and they were rotated regularly.
Liu Rumei pointed at the four standing people and said to Xiao Qing, "I will be in front and you behind in a moment. I will greet the four standing people. You quickly go and deal with the four sitting people. Remember that you can Just kill, don't be soft."
Xiao Qing agreed, clenched his fist and waved it in the air.
Liu Rumei slowly stepped forward and quietly took the dagger in her hand.
The four soldiers on duty here actually have resentment in their hearts. Going out to this wilderness on such a cold day, even if they light a big fire, it is not as comfortable as burning a fire in the house and drinking a little wine.
While pacing back and forth here, I couldn't help but complain a little.
"Oh, damn it, I've been here for several days and haven't even seen a single person."
"Yes, the people in Qingguang City are always thinking about it. A few days ago they said they were worried about people crossing the Xiaoqing River, and now they are worried about people returning to China."
"They don't have the ability to catch people, so they just use us as a torment."
"Okay, okay, you two just say a few words. We will go back to the city at dawn. We can rest for three days. Maybe, we will catch the person in these three days, and we won't have to suffer again. .”
Hearing the discussion of this group of people, Liu Rumei was secretly happy that Zheng Hai and others were not caught, at least not by this group of people or people they were familiar with.
Judging from the time, Zheng Hai may have returned to China. Now Liu Rumei felt relieved.
Three feet, two feet, one foot, they were already within a stone's throw of the four soldiers.
Seeing the right moment, Liu Rumei rushed out of the dark night, leaping up like a big bird and pounced towards the opponent.
The four people obviously did not expect that someone would attack them in the middle of the night. When they noticed the movement, it was already too late. Liu Rumei used a knife like lightning and stabbed the two of them with two strokes.
When the other two saw this, they quickly turned around and ran away. Can they run away? Liu Rumei stabbed them all in the back of the heart with one knife, and solved them all.
Xiaoqing over there was even more relaxed. After all, the four of them were asleep. She went up to wipe their necks one by one, which was just a matter of lightning.
After defeating the enemy's guards so easily, Liu Rumei and Xiao Qing looked at each other and smiled. The master and servant turned around and walked towards Dacang Kingdom.
Neither of them noticed that a soldier who was stabbed in the heart by Liu Longmei raised his body with difficulty, raised the serial crossbow in his hand, and pulled the trigger towards the two of them.
Liu Rumei and Xiao Qing were walking forward when they suddenly heard movement behind them. Liu Rumei raised her hand to push Xiao Qing, and then moved to the side. However, Liu Rumei obviously did not expect that the other party was using a serial crossbow, and this person was also sure of it. He caught Liu Rumei and kept chasing and beating her.
After Liu Rumei pushed Xiao Qing, she tried to dodge again, but she was a little too slow. Finally, with an ouch, she was hit by an arrow in her shoulder.
At this time, Xiao Qing over there, after confirming that he was safe, turned around and saw this scene, swung his short knife over, and hit the man's wrist again, and the attack on Liu Rumei stopped.
Xiaoqing stepped forward and kicked the man hard on the head. He heard a click and the man's neck was broken. This time he was really dead.
After being convinced that the person was dead, Xiao Qing hurriedly ran to Liu Rumei and said, "Miss, are you okay?"
Liu Rumei shook her head, "I'm fine, but I was bitten by a mosquito. Let's leave quickly."
In Liu Rumei's view, this place was only a dozen miles away from Shuozhou, and the two of them arrived quickly.
But as she walked, Liu Rumei felt something was wrong. She felt dizzy and sweating all over. Oh no, the opponent's arrow was poisonous.
It's so vicious, these people have no intention of letting themselves live.
This was because Jopson and Jonah, the two responsible persons, gave the death order and killed anyone they found immediately, leaving no one alive, so the people below came up with this strategy and used poison swords.
Seeing Liu Rumei's expression, Xiao Qing felt anxious and said, "Miss, let me carry you."
Liu Rumei waved her hand, "No, I can still hold on, let's leave quickly."
"We'll be in trouble if the enemy catches up."
After walking another mile, Xiao Qing clearly felt that Liu Rumei beside her could no longer walk, and her body fell down, relying on her own arm to hold her up. After thinking for a moment, Xiao Qing gritted her teeth and pushed Liu Rumei's back. On myself.
At this time, Xiaoqing still seemed very responsible. In the cold night, she gritted her teeth and moved to Shuozhou step by step.
In the twelfth lunar month of winter, it was too cold at night, and all the secret sentries sent by Shuozhou went back, so no one found them and helped them. Until it was getting dark, Xiaoqing finally saw the shadow of a city in the distance in the morning mist. Shuozhou, Shuozhou finally arrived.
At this time, Liu Rumei on her back suddenly said softly, "Xiaoqing, we are almost there. Put me down and go report the news quickly, otherwise you won't be able to hold on anymore."
After saying that, Liu Rumei lowered her head again. Xiao Qing secretly admired that her young lady seemed to have a sense of consciousness. She was still two miles away from Shuozhou and she suddenly woke up.
