In Zhaoxingfang, the scorching heat in the air has weakened a lot, and the patter of rain is getting heavier and heavier. When it falls on the body, the sweat and rain mix together, which is a very sticky and cold experience.
When Bai Jiahe ran to the corner, her temples stuck to her cheeks, and she exhaled a breath of hot breath. At this moment, a knife flashed at the corner, and it hit her right in the air. She narrowed her eyes slightly and groaned, Seeing that he was about to raise his energy to deal with it even if his meridians were damaged, a sword light suddenly flew from the diagonal stab.
"Clang!"
When the sword energy and the light of the sword collided, the rain curtain was also blown away. The sword energy was like a silver wave, instantly shattering the light of the sword that was swung towards Bai Jiahe's neck, and then only a "pop" sound was heard from the person holding the sword, He was already vomiting blood and flying into the darkness of the hanging corner.
Bai Jiahe's eyes were bright, and he was about to charge forward with his sword, but the rescuer held his shoulder.
"Senior sister?" she shouted with confusion on her face.
Ning Chu glanced at the fire coming this way and said softly: "Our mission has been completed. Let's meet the master and the others as soon as possible."
Zhang Zhiyuan retreated as there was no trace of the two women behind him. He led the two women to retreat according to the planned route, and said in a solemn voice: "The ones chasing after them should be elite guards. It seems that they don't know about it."
Ning Chu nodded, glanced at the city wall in the distance in the rain, and said: "Compared with the planned time, it has been delayed for at least a quarter of an hour. Master and the others may be worried."
Zhang Zhiyuan listened to the footsteps rushing behind him. He was a little relieved that the ability of the Guards had not deteriorated too much. He said directly: "Go straight ahead through this street, then turn left to the city wall. That place happens to be on the city wall." Out of range of the arrow stack.”
After Zhang Zhiyuan finished speaking, he turned around and rushed into the darkness behind him.
Bai Jiahe looked at Ning Chu and saw that she was still looking calm and composed, so he did not say anything worried. The two women took a deep breath. After reaching the end of the long street, they turned left and faced the city. Bai Jiahe Subconsciously he breathed a sigh of relief, but in his ears he heard Ning Chu's startled shout: "Be careful!"
A small dart was caught in the rain curtain and shot straight to Bai Jiahe's chest. Ning Chu turned around and tried to save him. It was too late. Between life and death, Bai Jiahe raised his slender eyebrows to both sides. He held a sword in front of him with his right hand and made a sword with his left hand. Wipe your fingers horizontally along the blade towards the tip.
"boom."
A crisp sound of hitting sounded, and the sword in Bai Jiahe's hand was bent to the limit. It was about to be broken by the dart. Bai Jiahe gave a light drink, while stepping back to release his force, the two fingers that were used as sword fingers continued to strike. The sword body, finally, after a low buzz, the dart flew into the dark alley with the spreading ripples.
"Wow--"
Ning Chu had already retreated to Bai Jiahe's side, holding sword flowers in his hand, smashing all the rain curtains that could hide hidden weapons into pieces.
"Senior sister!" Bai Jiahe's face paled a lot, and he said solemnly, "I'm afraid he has a second-grade cultivation level."
Ning Chu narrowed his eyes and scanned the surroundings vigilantly. She had just rushed ahead to clear the way. If it hadn't been for the movement caused by the darts under the rain curtain, it would have been difficult to immediately discover that the person hiding in the dark was a master of hidden weapons. Good hands.
However, the two women stood back to back for a long time, but the other party did not launch an attack. Ning Chu glanced at the three-foot-high city wall not far away, and said softly: "The people in the dark are delaying time, and their target is probably not us. .”
"This..." Bai Jiahe couldn't hide the shock in his eyes, "Who are they?"
"No matter what, you go ahead. No matter what happens, don't worry about it. After rushing out, go directly to the master and the others."
Bai Jiahe opened his mouth, knowing that it was either you or me who came here. His chest rose and fell slowly. After taking a big breath of Qi, he tiptoed, and his whole body shot towards the wall like a string.
The top of the wall looked like a cliff under the night rain. In just a breath, Bai Jiahe had already crossed a distance of five or six feet on the ground and was about to stand on the top of the wall in the next moment.
Ning Chu was speeding along the ground unhurriedly, keeping an eye on Bai Jiahe. At this moment, a soft whistle sounded again in the darkness somewhere behind him.
"Well done!"
Ning Chu secretly shouted, and when he took three steps forward and flew into the air, he was already facing behind him.
"Bang bang bang!"
The sword light suddenly rose and fell, and before the rain curtain was cut by the surging energy, three very short clicks sounded on the ground.
Ning Churen stopped in mid-air, using his wrist to counteract the force on the sword slightly, and his eyes followed the dart that was hit back.
What made her regretful was that although the three darts flew back to wherever they came from, they failed to force out any figure.
This is a cautious opponent...I am afraid that when throwing out the dart, he immediately changed his position, otherwise it would take less than one breath to force him out.
Ning Chu's face became more cautious, and he looked around any suspicious shadowed corners. Feeling Bai Jiahe's aura still standing on the wall, he couldn't help but frown, and was about to speak, but the next moment his face changed drastically and he rushed towards Bai Jiahe.
Ning Chu's intuition was not wrong. When Bai Jiahe stood on the wall and was about to start caring about her, she rushed directly towards Bai Jiahe.
The two women's eyes reflected their respective figures, and the expression on Bai Jiahe's face changed from worry to bewilderment.
The next moment, under the other corner, with a bang, countless silver steel needles flew up to the top of the wall. At this moment, it was like the world was turned upside down, and a gust of wind and rain suddenly rose from the ground.
"Tuk-tuk-tuk."
The flying needles shot into the compacted wall, and the sound they erupted was like a rain shower slamming on the eaves, but this was only a small part of the flying needles. More flying needles shot at Bai Jiahe on the wall. The next moment He wanted to shoot her into powder.
Ning Chu's eyes narrowed to a slit, and his whole person looked extremely cold. He looked at Bai Jiahe's back and saw needles flying like rain in the sky, while Bai Jiahe watched her dragging her sword like a god.
At this moment, any reminder seemed redundant and would only slow down her speed. Before Ning Chu arrived, the sword in his hand had already drawn out a curtain of swords.
When she landed next to Bai Jiahe, the flying needles in the sky had also arrived. The sword curtains flying up the wall with her collided with the flying needles, as if someone was grabbing a handful of them. Small pebbles were thrown into the calm lake water, making a popping sound.
The stalemate lasted for four or five breaths, with flying needles forming a circle around the wall around the two women. When the last flying needle shot over, Ning Chu reluctantly raised his hand to block it, and with a clang, her His right hand hung down weakly, and after the long sword was knocked away, it also fell to the ground under the wall.
"Hmm." Ning Chu's shoulders shook, and bits of blood seeped out. Through the white clothes on his body, they looked like red plums covering the white snow.
The flying needles were like a torrential rain, numerous and fast. In order to protect Bai Jiahe, who was not prepared enough, Ning Chu inevitably suffered.
She pulled Bai Jiahe back from the wall and hid in the darkness in the corner. This time she couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
Bai Jiahe was full of self-blame and quickly gave her Qi, but Ning Chu refused.
She moved her fingers like the wind and forced out the few silver needles that were still in her body. She didn't have time to check the severity of her injuries. She said in a deep voice: "It's not your fault. I didn't expect them to ambush someone outside the wall." .”
Bai Jiahe forced himself to calm down his chaotic emotions, but he still couldn't help but said urgently: "This is the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle. I saw it when I was with the master. It must be poisonous."
She took out the antidote pill that she always kept in her waist and fed it to Ning Chu. After Ning Chu's energy improved slightly, he grabbed her arm and said, "Go back! You are their target, let's go back."
Bai Jiahe helped the two girls away from Da'anfang. In the darkness behind them, Hengyu looked at Zheng Shi angrily and said, "Don't forget, they are also from Hidden Valley."
Zheng Shi put away the hidden weapon in his hand with an indifferent expression and ignored Hengyu's anger.
Murong Xiu Ming on the side looked away from the hidden weapon with some jealousy, holding a hidden weapon in his hand and said with a smile: "That girl Ning Chu is indeed the woman I like. Anyway, we have achieved part of our goal. Let's see now. Let’s see if Mu Qing and the others will come back, then…”
He looked at Heng Yu.
The rejection on Heng Yu's face was no longer concealed, and Murong Xiu Ming said sarcastically: "If there is a chance, let's go explore that Duobao Pawn Shop together."
In Da'anfang, the firelight dimmed much.
When Xiong San heard the report from his subordinates, many of his red-eyed Guards brothers chased him. He felt anxious, but kept a calm face and said: "There are military honors everywhere tonight. You guys go call them." Come back and collect the bodies of these rebels together."
Xiong Sanzheng was talking when he suddenly noticed an old man in purple clothes and white hair suddenly appeared beside him. He staggered all over, suppressing the idea of striking him with a knife, and roared angrily: "Where did you come from? This is a battlefield, don't you know? ?”
The old man glanced at the blood-stained look on his armor and nodded with some appreciation. The next moment, when Xiong San couldn't bear his temper and rushed towards the old man, there was not even a shadow in the open space beside him.
Xiong San stared for a long time, then turned around and ordered the soldiers behind him: "Hurry up, let's clean up the battlefield and go to the city gate. His grandma is a bit evil tonight."
In a shop not far away, Zhang Zhiyuan withdrew his hand with a solemn face, looked at Ning Chu who had passed out in Bai Jiahe's arms, and blamed himself: "Tonight, the jade dragons are mixed together, it is difficult to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, her true energy is confused, It was indeed poisoned.”
Bai Jiahe said anxiously: "Uncle Valley Master must have a way, but if it doesn't work, there is also Senior Brother Mu Qing."
Zhang Zhiyuan nodded, knowing that Mu Qing and the others must be very worried after such a long delay.
"The Guards seem to be shrinking. Since there are enemies ambushing Zhaoxingfang, let's leave directly from the south gate."
Zhang Zhiyuan asked Bai Jiahe to carry Ning Chu on his back, while he protected the two women. Just when they were about to walk out of the back door of the shop, he left and blocked the two women. He said with a serious face: "Go back, if you can't leave for the time being, go find me." Find a place to hide."
At the end of the alley facing the back door, Cao Jin, who was wearing a purple robe and full of white hair, looked away from Bai Jiahe and chuckled: "I didn't expect to see that little girl here. How lucky you are. It’s much thicker, and it seems to have something to do with that person.”
Bai Jiahe's eyes narrowed suddenly, and he found a face similar to that of the person blocking the way in his memory. He subconsciously took half a step back, lowered his head and said urgently: "Uncle Zhang, he is from the palace."
Zhang Zhiyuan's face was calm, his right hand rested on the hilt of the sword and he remained motionless. He did not find a trace of aura fluctuations on Cao Jin's body, but both Wang Yeqing and Suzaku had already explained how difficult this person was.
The night rain was poured into the alley by the cold wind, and separated automatically when it fell towards Cao Jin. However, the wind could not stop it, so Cao Jin's empty left sleeve was extremely eye-catching at this time.
At this moment, Zhang Zhiyuan only wanted to remain unchanged in response to all changes, but Cao Jin felt as if the wind had hurt his wound. He looked at Bai Jiahe with greedy and bloody eyes and said: "You can actually generate a dragon energy in your body. This world is really wonderful."
As soon as he finished speaking, he disappeared from the spot. Zhang Zhiyuan's expression changed drastically and he immediately turned around. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Cao Jing's right hand clawing towards Bai Jiahe's heart.
