All plans and preparations are in vain in the face of absolute power.

After that blow, the remaining people began to scatter and flee, resisting the shaman? Qi Hong didn't dare to think about it, that was not the power of a mortal.

The frightened guards also did not dare to confront the cavalry head-on. They ran away one by one. The main target was not them, so the Jin people would not waste too much time to kill them all.

Those with horses naturally run faster, but they are also easily targeted by cavalry.

Zhou Bai and Lao Bashi were also followed by more than a dozen cavalrymen, because they were the first to escape and had an obvious target.

But he never bent his bow to shoot back, and he didn't even allow the old-fashioned counterattack.

Zhou Bai knew that the ultimate goal of these Jin people must be Hu Yanhe, and they were just passing by.

But the shaman might have noticed that his previous arrows were flawless. If he stood out again, they might have to get rid of him first.

Even if Zhou Bai survives, Laobashi is definitely dead, and he still risks losing his body.

That's right, Zhou Bai has one more thing to keep in mind when facing the disaster this time, that is, the Book of Luck can travel through time again.

But he can still only go through the soul. He will never make this choice unless it is absolutely necessary.

If the soul travels to another world and the physical body left in the main world is destroyed, then he will be a lonely ghost in the future.

However, there are very few people who succeed in the path of ghosts and immortals, and they have no hope of reaching the pinnacle of the path in their lifetime.

Riding the horse all the way, Zhou Bai's own riding skills needless to say. Born in the north, coupled with the tempering of life and death in his previous life, he can handle it with ease.

As for his old tricks, he was a little surprised. He followed closely to protect him, and from time to time he could move around on the horse to avoid stray arrows, showing his superb riding skills.

"Master, these barbarians are too arrogant."

"Run further, run further." Zhou Bai responded loudly, and the continuous rain fell into his mouth, and the cold and wet chill made him calmer.

He couldn't help but take another look at Lao Shi's original life. There was nothing outstanding about it, not even a hint of red.

On its upright natal body, there is only a deep and rich white color. This natal body is better than the average ordinary person, but it is not the qualification for an admiral.

When you are in your forties, it is too difficult to change your destiny by fighting on the battlefield.

Zhou Bai put aside the unrealistic thoughts in his mind, but with such riding skills, he could be taught by a cavalryman instead of staying by his side as a groom.

"What's your name, Laobashi? Do you have any ideas for the future?"

The old man running wildly was suddenly stunned. Why did Master Bai suddenly want to understand him? But he also understood that what should come will always come.

"Young Master, if you want to be more formal, just call me Lao Huang. As for my name, it has long been buried with my family in the ground..."

On this critical and stormy night of escaping for his life, Laobashi finally told Zhou Bai his origins.

It turns out that his surname is Huang, from Cangbei County, a frontier soldier, and his home is at the foot of Cangshan Mountain.

Originally, Lao Huang was guarding the frontier and his family was safe at the back. But unexpectedly, during an invasion by the Kingdom of Jin, the whole family was destroyed.

The Jin man was the direct murderer, but he was also a murderer because he neglected to defend himself due to alcoholism and failed to perform local inspections to evacuate the people.

In order to take revenge, Lao Huang rode alone into the grassland, carried the heads of three golden soldiers as a memorial to his family, and then got the patrol inspector drunk, stripped naked, and hung him on the city wall to freeze to death.

There was no need for Zhou Bai to ask what happened next. He was wanted by Cangbei County, so he could only hide his name and sell himself as a slave to the powerful.

Moreover, he was brave enough to sell himself to the nearest Pingcang County.

"Old Huang, are you afraid that I will drag you to claim credit?"

"Master Bai is not such a person. Besides, it's still unclear whether we can survive today. Just let me pull some barbarians to support me."

"Wait a moment..." Zhou Bai appraised the distance and time and tried to dissuade him.

But when they ran for dozens of miles without any effort, the cavalry following them still didn't get rid of them, which made Zhou Bai depressed.

The target is obviously not them, right?

Zhou Bai's heart skipped a beat, he suppressed his headache, and used his Qi-gazing technique to look back and look around.

As expected, the disaster would not end so easily. The direction Hu Yanhe chose to escape was actually very different from the direction he chose to escape, except that one was due west and the other was southwest.

Moreover, Hu Yanhe moved closer to them, as if he wanted to divert trouble to the east.

Zhou Bai was not the only smart person. None of them chose the south and could not place their hopes of escape on "reinforcements" without combat effectiveness.

If not deterred, these cavalrymen would be unscrupulous.

Hu Yanhe was followed by at least fifty riders, and Zhou Bai saw that the black-robed shaman was also among them.

"Old Huang, face north. Let's go to Cangshan Mountain. We can't let Hu Yanhe use us as a target." Zhou Bai said angrily.

But at the same time, he felt a little relieved. At least Chen Zhongbang's side should be fine.

Not far to the north is Cangshan Mountain. This is undoubtedly a very bold choice, because it means that they gave up the method of moving quickly, and in the end they could only use the deep forests of Cangshan Mountain to escape.

At the right time, another bolt of lightning struck, and the bright light illuminated everyone in the wasteland clearly.

Hu Yanhe only had the last two cavalry around him at this time, but they were all outstanding players, and their individual quality was at its peak.

One of them noticed the movement of the "friendly troops" and quickly reminded: "Prince, they seem to want to escape into Cangshan Mountain!"

Hu Yanhe looked ugly and said with some confusion: "These two people don't know the secrets of the extraordinary. Although the mountains and forests can avoid the pursuit of cavalry, how can they block the perception of the black-robed shaman."

"But Prince, if we don't go to Cangshan Mountain, judging from this situation, we will be overtaken sooner or later."

"Well, I have no choice. The worst I can do is enter Cangshan Mountain. I will use my last trump card." Hu Yanhe looked at the cavalry behind him and gritted his teeth.

He hated that the army of ten thousand households under his direct leadership was not around, otherwise this mere black-robed shaman would not be so arrogant and dare to attack. The military strength of an army of ten thousand people would be able to suppress him.

Hu Yanhe thought of his eldest brother again, who actually calculated that he would secretly go to Daxu Shenjing for help. It was related to the throne. Who could say for sure whether he was planning or being plotted.

An hour later, Cangshan Mountain was very close, and it was so dark that it was impossible to see its inner shape.

"Old Huang, don't go up the mountain. Walk directly along the foot of the mountain. I will lure them away. Remember not to fight."

"Master Bai, this..."

Lao Huang was very reluctant, but he knew that hesitation was the most taboo at this moment, so he compromised. Staying by himself would only be a drag, and it would be better to go separately.

The pursuers who were following behind were stunned, and they separated out a few cavalry to chase Lao Huang. The other half did not follow Zhou Bai up the mountain, but stayed at the mountain pass to outflank Hu Yanhe.

In fact, Zhou Bai understood that if Lao Huang went up the mountain and he ran along the mountain, as long as he sacrificed Lao Huang in the end, his probability of survival would be very high.

But he still chose to go up the mountain by himself. Lao Huang, who had just had a heart-to-heart with him, could not be so cold-blooded.

He also has a backup plan. This Cangshan Mountain is also familiar to Zhou Bai. In his previous life, Cangshan Mountain hid many desperate people, including him.

After another long while, Wu Tu led his team to arrive. After Hu Yan joined two of his guards, he finally rushed into the forest.

"Master Shaman, I still need to ask you to take action. It's ridiculous for these people to think that they can hide from the shaman in the mountains." Wutu snorted coldly and saluted the black-robed shaman again.

The black-robed shaman jumped down from the horse's back, and his withered palm was like an eagle's talon inserted into the horse's belly. The horse seemed not to notice the pain, and allowed the hand to stir in the internal organs.

In just a moment, a complete horse turned into a mummy at a speed visible to the naked eye, with no flesh and blood.

The shaman, who was a little irritable because of the long pursuit, suddenly felt much more comfortable.

He looked into the dark depths of Cangshan Mountain where no trace of life could be seen, and smiled ferociously. Want to run? !
