Xiang Lian'er entered the house, and soon there was an exclamation from Xiang Lian'er. Yi Xiaodao quickly ran to the door, leaned on the door, and asked, "Xian Lian'er, what's wrong with you? What happened?" ?”
"Oh...it's okay, I bumped into a stool and hit my foot..." Xiang Lian'er's voice came from inside, "Don't come in, we are changing clothes!"
Yi Xiaodao breathed a sigh of relief, "Oh...it's okay." When he thought about the fact that he had just asked loudly, he was afraid of waking up the girl's father, so he whispered quietly, "Be careful..."
In the room, two girls spoke in lowered voices.
"What did you say? Are you alone at home? And that old man's voice you just heard?" Xiang Lian'er asked, looking around the room.
"Well, I'm the only one. My father and mother went to the city to sell things, but they haven't come back yet. I just heard someone outside. I thought my father and mother were back. The voice just now was imitated by me. My dad, are you okay? Have you lied to you?" The girl said and moved the lamp out of the room.
"It's more than a resemblance? I thought there really was an uncle in the room! How did you do it? Let me imitate another one?" Xiang Lian'er looked at the girl expectantly.
"Yue'er, what time has it been and you're still not sleeping!" The girl put down the lamp and whispered. A strong man's voice came out of the girl's mouth, and the light reflected it, which was indescribably weird.
But Xiang Lian'er laughed so hard, "Hahahaha, sister is so awesome. She scared that guy to death just now. Your name is Yue'er? By the way, my name is Xiang Lian'er, and the guy outside is called Yi Xiaodao."
"Well, my name is He Yue'er. It seems that none of you are bad people. Let me call him in. There are a lot of mosquitoes outside in this summer. By the way, what are you doing here in the mountains at night?" He Yue'er said and was about to open the door.
Xiang Lian'er grabbed him and said, "No, that guy is very tough." "When He Yue'er asked the reason for coming here, Xiang Lian'er fell silent.
At this time, Yi Xiaodao's voice came in from outside, "Xianlian'er, Xianglian'er, come out quickly, there are two people coming this way, and there is the sound of weapons, come out quickly."
Xiang Lian'er and He Yue'er looked at each other, walked to the door and opened it. When they saw Yi Xiaodao peeking into the crack of the door, they got angry and kicked over, "What tricks are you playing again, man?" Where is he? "
Yi Xiaodao was kicked so hard that he turned over. As if to verify Yi Xiaodao's words, a middle-aged man stumbled out of the house, supporting a young man.
The middle-aged man was wearing a night-walking suit. There seemed to be soft armor inside the clothes. The night-walking suit was covered on the outside. You could vaguely see what looked like a snake head on the chest of the inner armor. The cuffs and trouser legs were tightly tied with thin ropes. His movements were crisp. There was a short knife stuck at his waist. With a mask on his face, he was supporting the young man, frowning, very worried about the young man's health.
The young man was dressed in white, and his clothes were flying with every step he took. It was obvious that the material of the clothes was very good. There is a rabbit head embroidered on the chest of the white clothes, which becomes vivid with every movement of the boy.
It's just that this young man's condition is not optimistic. He suffered several injuries on his back. It's unclear whether he was injured by a sword or a gun. His whole back was bloody. He was vomiting blood from time to time. The blood stains on his sleeves were probably caused by wiping the corners of his mouth. .
The middle-aged man came to the house and saw a boy and two girls standing at the door. He felt a little less vigilant. "Kids, are there any adults at home? We want to stay overnight. Please inform the elders at home." Just say it for convenience."
Yi Xiaodao saw the middle-aged man's inner armor and short sword early in the morning. He was tense at first and checked the escape route first. However, seeing that he spoke so politely, he relaxed a little.
Yi Xiaodao asked aloud: "Who are you? We don't dare to let people live here casually, and looking at the blood on your body, you must be hunted down by enemies, or are you important criminals captured by the government? We don't dare to leave people here casually. Take it in.”
The middle-aged man replied, "This little friend has been staring at my short sword and soft armor just now. He knows that I have an unusual identity. He deliberately asked us if we were going to commit a crime. He also wanted to find out our details, right?"
The middle-aged man helped the young man sit down on a big rock outside the house, turned around and took out a sign from his arms: "There is nothing to hide in this situation. We are the Twelve Heavenly Guards under the emperor, and I am Si Chai Wei, this is Mao Ji Wei. We are here to investigate the actual situation of the flood in Wancheng."
The young man coughed violently again on the stone and spit out a large mouthful of blood. The man frowned and continued: "We were originally waiting ten miles east of Wancheng, and the Ziyin Guards of the Twelve Heavenly Guards went to investigate, but Ziyinwei was already seriously injured when he came back. He only told the Maoji Guards the information and died in the line of duty. He didn't want the pursuers to follow. The Maoji Guards were in the light and I was in the dark. Thanks to this, we fought several times, one after another. Yami was able to escape. But Brother Uojiwei..."
The young man raised his sleeves and wiped the corners of his mouth: "The Twelve Heavenly Guards each perform their duties, and there is no need to think too much about the assassination guard. It is because of my poor skills and lack of diligence that I got this reward. It's just that it is difficult to regain my life. The assassination guard Brother, you don’t have to worry about me, go to Wucheng quickly to find the Tianwei brothers who are assisting you, and convey the emperor’s order quickly.”
The middle-aged man sighed: "Brothers, there is no need to say anything. The Twelve Heavenly Guards each perform their duties. When we came out, our commander told us the mission, to protect the two brothers Ziyinwei and Maojiwei. I just didn't expect there to be so many of them. , you all have great skills, but I couldn’t protect you... I’m really ashamed.”
The middle-aged man rushed to Yi Xiaodao and said, "I wonder if I can stay here tonight. If it's really inconvenient, it's okay. If I have some herbs at home..."
Before he finished speaking, something flew out of the dark night and hit the boy. He took the boy dozens of steps and nailed him to the ground. It turned out to be a spear!
"You two are so fast, it's hard for us to chase you, hahahahaha." There was a burst of laughter coming with the spear.
I saw the deputy general beside Kong Bao on the wall of Wancheng City, leading dozens of people on horseback to rush out of the darkness. After a while, He Yue'er's house was surrounded by water.
The man quickly rushed to the young man's side to check the situation. The young man raised his head with difficulty, spit out a mouthful of blood, and said slowly: "Please..." After that, he slowly lowered his head and made no sound.
The man put the young man down: "It is important for brothers to trust each other, but I have violated the emperor's order and failed to protect the two brothers... My friends, I just informed the emperor of the order, and they also know that I can't leave. You go quickly, I'll stop them! You must rush to Wucheng. There is a wooden board behind the notice board at the gate of Dongcheng. It won't take a quarter of an hour to pull out the wooden board, and someone will pick you up."
The man took out the short knife from his waist and said, "Just say, 'Li Taishi's gatekeeper Kong Bao chases the refugees, is good at killing the heavenly guards, and intends to rebel!'"
Upon hearing this, Yi Xiaodao quickly pulled Xiang Lian'er and He Yue'er, nodded to the man and said, "If we escape, we will definitely tell you!" After saying this, he picked up the two of them and left.
Upon hearing this, the deputy general grabbed a spear from the soldier's hand and threw it at the three of them!
"Ding"
The man jumped away and blocked the head of the gun with the short knife in his hand. He was driven back a few steps by the momentum of the spear and kicked the spear away.
When Yi Xiaodao heard the sound behind him, he didn't look back and pulled the two of them forward desperately.
The deputy general drew out the sword from his waist and jumped off his horse. "You guys, chase after me! I'll kill this snake!"
A group of soldiers passed by the man on horseback. The lieutenant thought that the man would stop the soldiers and prepare to hit them in the back. Unexpectedly, the man did not move at all and allowed the soldiers to chase Yi Xiaodao and others.
When the deputy general saw this, he couldn't help but be stunned. Seeing the deputy general stunned, the man turned around and ran towards He Yue'er's house.
This made the deputy general even more confused. It took him a long time to realize: "It turns out that you deliberately told those children such big information in order to lure the tiger away from the mountain. Now there are only two of us here. If I don't pay attention, You really ended up with Baoqi here, what a poisonous snake! You don’t care about the life and death of those children? "
After entering the house, the man turned around and closed the door, shouting inside: "It's none of my business. Those children were killed by your soldiers and have nothing to do with me!"
The deputy general snorted coldly: "If you didn't leak the matter, how could we go after those children?"
"If you didn't hunt me down, how could I tell those children what happened!"
The deputy general laughed angrily: "If you heavenly guards don't come to spy! How could we hunt you down!"
"You don't do any evil, we came to spy on you when we were full!"
"..."
After hearing this, the deputy general stopped answering and sat on a stone bench in the courtyard, with his long sword stuck on the ground, and waited with the already assassinated guard. Si Ciwei is good at assassination. If he goes in hastily, he might be in trouble.
Seeing the situation of the lieutenant, Si Ciwei knew that he could not give up. He also looked around the house. When he walked into the inner room, he saw that the window of the inner room faced the mountain behind the window, and he became aware of his plan.
On the other hand, Yi Xiaodao pulled the two of them and ran not far when they heard the sound of horse hooves behind them. He knew something was wrong and saw a big bluestone in front of him. He pulled the two of them and ran to the big bluestone. The three of them were panting. Xiaodao took a few breaths, calmed down, and then stared at the way he came, waiting for the cavalry to arrive.
Soon, the cavalry arrived. They saw Yi Xiaodao and the others standing at the big bluestone waiting for everyone on their side. They were worried that they were being deceived and did not dare to step forward.
After some discussion, two people were left to watch the horses. The other seven dismounted, raised swords and guns, and slowly surrounded Yi Xiaodao and the others.
"Although I don't know what tricks you people are playing, I can really see you beating Zhao Wu and Zhao Liu to death on the top of the city. This time, don't even think about running away again." The leader of the soldiers said this and said to Several people behind them signaled, and the six soldiers behind them spread out to the left and right, surrounding Yi Xiaodao and the three of them tightly.
Seven against three! ! !
The deputy general sat in the courtyard for a long time. Hearing no movement in the house, he felt a little confused. He stood up suddenly and ran around the wooden house to the back of the house. He saw the windows at the back of the house wide open and a series of footprints going up the back hill. He immediately raised his sword and swept towards the back hill.
After a while, the front door of He Yue'er's house slowly opened, and the guard who had been assassinated slowly walked out of the house. He glanced at the back mountain, thought for a while, and went down the mountain in the direction where everyone came from.
After the seven people here surrounded the three, they slowly came closer step by step. Yi Xiaodao and the others were forced to the stone, with no way to retreat. Several times Xiang Lian'er couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to step forward to fight, but Yi Xiaodao held her tightly. And everything that happened to He Yue'er from the beginning to now was too sudden, and she didn't know where to go. Her whole body was led by Yi Xiaodao like a reed, following her wherever she went, not knowing what to do.
Yi Xiaodao stared at the soldiers who were slowly approaching on both sides. If it weren't for the two girls beside him, he would have had several chances to escape. Even just now, he would not have stopped here. Now he is riding a tiger.
Seeing several soldiers marching step by step, the first two bent down and held guns, ready to step forward and stab them!
"Big...brother, what is that..."
A soldier's voice was trembling, and he pulled the young leader and pointed toward the woods behind Yi Xiaodao and the others. One sentence made the two soldiers stop and look at the sound.
The little leader also looked through the moonlight and saw a dark figure standing there quietly on a big tree not far behind Yi Xiaodao. The shadow held a sword in its hand. It was impossible to tell the male and female, but Stand quietly.
Yi Xiaodao and the other three also followed the soldier's direction and looked back. As soon as He Yue'er turned her head, she was so frightened that she couldn't help but yelled "Ah". Xiang Lian'er stepped in front of He Yue'er, pulled Yi Xiaodao and blocked it in front of her.
Yi Xiaodao "actively" blocked in front of the two girls, and was a little frightened when he saw the black shadow. If Xiang Lian'er hadn't grabbed him tightly behind him, Yi Xiaodao might have been too weak to stand. It was a dark night, and everyone was frightened when they saw a black shadow standing behind them that was darker than the night.
"Who is this? The government is handling the case. If nothing happens, get out of here!" the little leader shouted towards the black shadow.
The black shadow did not respond to him, as if it had not heard him, and stood quietly from beginning to end.
"We are all officers and soldiers in the capital, and we have been ordered to arrest the rebels."
The little leader turned to signal to the soldier beside him. Without saying a word, the soldier raised his spear and threw it at the black shadow!
"call out"
The spear was nailed to the big tree behind the black shadow, and the gun body kept swinging from side to side due to the stamina.
The black shadow still stood motionless.
Weared it! ! !
