Due to unknown reasons, Sogou suddenly failed to search this site today. Please keep in mind the domain name of this site (the full spelling of Shuhaige) to find your way home!

Liang Yehan saw Li Wanji's brows furrowed in thought and stopped talking. After a long while, he continued: "Uncle Master, if he can't catch up with us, he will inevitably leave and come back. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. We'd better hurry up." Let’s go back to the city.”

Li Wanji nodded in agreement. The two were about to leave when they suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves and looked towards the official road. They saw dust flying in the distance and hundreds of cavalry galloping towards them.

When the two saw this, they still hid behind the big stone and looked outside. After a while, all the cavalrymen came to the ring and reined in their horses. The leader is wearing a silver helmet and silver armor, a robe with a belt, and two purple-gold devil-conquering hammers hanging on the hooks of a bird-wing ring. He is majestic and has a dignified appearance.

When Liang Yehan saw it, he thought to himself: "Is there such a person in Jinling Mansion?"

I saw this person asking to the left and right: "Where is the messenger?"

The man on the left rode his horse forward, cupped his fists and said, "I have a humble duty."

"How many people are there in the rebel group that General Zhang mentioned? Where are they now?!"

"Back to your lord, General Zhang ordered me to go back to the government to warn that the remnants of the rebellious party were coming to cause trouble. I left in a hurry after receiving the order. I don't know how many members of the rebellious party there are."

The leader frowned and looked around. No one could be seen around him (those who were thrown to the ground were all running away now). While he was hesitating, someone beside him said: "Mr. Liu, since we are here, why don't we search around. If we can find any clues about the rebellious party, it will be easier to go back."

The Mr. Liu who came was none other than Liu Chaozhong, and the General Zhang just now was Zhang Huang. The two originally followed Li Zhun, Wang Jiaoshou and others to the ring to capture Wang Rong. Unexpectedly, they sent people to search everywhere but found no trace of Wang Rong. When they looked back for Chen Xiaotian, there was no trace either. Although Li Zhun and others were angry, they had no choice but to go back home first and then make plans. As soon as I arrived at the government office, I heard that there was an explosion in the arena, killing and injuring countless people. Li Zhun hurriedly ordered martial law throughout the city and sent people to investigate the cause of the accident. Upon hearing this, Zhang Huang thought there was an opportunity and took the initiative to ask Ying to go to the site for inspection. Li Zhun was originally unwilling to send him, but he couldn't stand Zhang Huang's repeated pleas, so he had to agree.

Zhang Huang received the order, summoned his cronies and rushed to Qinglong Mountain. I thought I would go around as a routine, count the number of casualties, briefly check the cause of the explosion, and then arrest a few unlucky people for their crimes. This is how I achieved my unparalleled feat. Unexpectedly, he happened to meet Liang Yehan and others. He knew that all of his cronies were useless, although having too many people might not be effective, so when he sent people back, he specifically asked Liu Chaozhong to bring the elite of the Guards with him. Come for reinforcements.

Liu Chaozhong was patrolling the streets at the time. After receiving the order, he did not dare to neglect and hurriedly picked 200 strong cavalry from the Guards camp and rushed over. Unexpectedly, when I arrived at the scene, I found that not to mention the rebels, even Zhang Huang and others were missing. Although he has an upright temperament, he has also been involved in the officialdom for many years. Seeing this situation, he couldn't help but feel suspicious and thought to himself: "Zhang Huang is a treacherous man. Could it be that he deliberately tricked me into coming here and then joined me without permission?"

Thinking of this, I was about to give the order to return when I suddenly heard someone on the left and right suggesting a search. I thought to myself: "It's okay to search. If I can find out something, I can explain it to my superiors and subordinates." So he said loudly: "Brothers , check carefully for me! Don’t miss any clues!”

The sergeants got the order, dismounted one after another, and searched everywhere. When Liang Yehan saw it, he secretly complained and thought: "If we continue searching like this, we will be found sooner or later."

As soon as my thoughts changed, I saw two sergeants walking slowly towards this side. Li Wanji saw this and whispered: "Junior sister, what should we do? Should we withdraw?"

Liang Yehan said softly: "They have horses, we can't run far."

"What should we do? Go out and fight with them?"

Liang Yehan shook his head and said: "Once we fight with them, we will really become a chaotic party."

"I can't fight, I can't run, so what should I do?"

"This..." Liang Yehan had no idea and peeked outside, only to see two sergeants getting closer and closer, only a few steps away from the big stone. When I was at my wits' end, I suddenly saw two horses tied not far behind the two sergeants. They must have been their mounts. Liang Yehan suddenly had an idea, pointed at himself, made a gesture to escape, pointed at Li Wanji, and then pointed at the two horses.

Li Wanji didn't understand for a moment, frowned and shook his head. Liang Yehan had no choice but to grab Li Wanji's right hand and wrote three characters for "horse" on his palm with a pointing pen. Looking at Li Wanji again, his face was still confused. Liang Yehan was so angry that he drew out his long sword and quickly wrote two words on the ground - horse stealing. Before he finished writing the word "horse", he heard someone yelling above him, "Who is it?! What are you doing sneaking around here?"

Liang Yehan heard this and without saying a word, he straightened up and ran towards the east. When the two sergeants saw this, they hurriedly scolded him and then chased him. Liang Yehan ran out more than ten feet and looked back. He saw that Li Wanji was nowhere to be found, but the two horses were still there. He couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart and thought to himself: "Does senior brother think that my plan is to escape separately? ?If that’s the case, I can’t escape.”

After such a hesitation, the two sergeants behind him chased after him. The man in front held a knife in both hands and put it to his head before slashing. Liang Yehan heard the evil wind behind his head, and suddenly exerted force on his feet, sprinted forward, and opened the distance again. Seeing this, the sergeant behind him raised his long sword with his right hand and threw it forward with all his strength. Liang Yehan listened to the voice and identified his position, but without turning around, he swung the long sword back in his hand, and with a clang, the long sword fell to the ground.

Liang Yehan completed these movements in one go, without stopping for a moment. Although the two sergeants had good legs and feet, they were really inferior to Liang Yehan. They were left behind after just a few steps.

Liang Yehan looked around while running, thinking to himself: "There are hills or flat areas around here. No matter how fast I run, I can't escape the pursuit of the cavalry. Now I have to find a place to hide first."

Just when he thought of this, he heard the sound of horse hooves behind him. Liang Yehan's heart sank and he thought to himself: "Did we catch up so quickly?" He didn't dare to neglect for a while, so he took a deep breath and stepped on his feet. Immediately when the man saw him, he shouted: "Junior sister, it's me! Get on the horse quickly!"

Liang Yehan was overjoyed. He looked back and saw that it was indeed Li Wanji riding a yellow horse. He slowed down and waited for Li Wanji to catch up. He flew up, held up his hands, and landed lightly on the horse.

"Sit tight!" Li Wanji used his long sword as a stick and whipped the yellow horse's buttocks and waist hard. The horse was in pain, neighed violently, and flew eastward with its hooves flying.
