Zhao Xueqing and the other three heard the shouting coming from behind them, stopped quickly, and then looked back.
The guards were seen holding sharp blades and had surrounded them.
"We are ordered to capture the wanted criminal Zhao Baihe, please don't mess around!" Zhao Xueqing said calmly.
The leading guard snorted coldly and said, "Don't talk nonsense in front of us. We have received news that someone reported that you, Zhao Baihe, colluded with people from the Fu family and intended to rebel. We were ordered to arrest you, so be obedient." Come with us, or don't blame us for being rude."
"We did not collude with the Fu family!"
Zhao Xueqing quickly defended.
This time, neither Zhao Baihe nor Fu Tianpeng raised any objections.
Because they all know that if they deny it now, they may cause more trouble.
"snort!"
The leading guard snorted coldly and said: "Since you are not colluding with the Fu family, then just let me capture you!" "
After the words fell, more than a dozen guards spread out and surrounded Zhao Baihe, Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing.
When Zhao Xueqing saw this, her expression suddenly changed. She pulled out the Chanjuan Sword, stepped on the steps of Four Elephants and Two Rites, and glared at the guards present with angry eyes.
When the leader of the guards saw Zhao Xueqing drawing a sword towards him, his eyes widened with evil eyes, and he pointed forward and said: "Come here, these three thieves have not changed their thieves' nature, and they dare to fight against Master Wang like a groundworm, shake a tree, give them to me Capture and kill them one by one.”
The leader of the guards gave an order, and all the guards rushed forward with sharp weapons and besieged the three people.
The three of them kept running towards the top of the mountain while avoiding the siege of the guards.
"Want to run? Stop them!"
The leader of the guards roared, then waved his sword and rushed over first, followed closely by the remaining guards.
There was a ping-ping-pong-pang-pong collision of weapons.
The three of them tried their best to escape from the valley, and then quickly ran towards the dense forest in the distance, preparing to escape from there, but were intercepted by more than a dozen guards.
Seeing a dozen sharp blades pointed at the three of them, Zhao Xueqing's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.
All this seems too coincidental.
"Who sent you here?" Zhao Xueqing asked, suppressing the panic in her heart.
"We are ordered to capture the wanted criminal Zhao Baihe!" the guard leader replied with a sneer, "Do you really think you can escape? Let me tell you, you will never escape! Just surrender and be captured!"
"impossible!"
Zhao Xueqing categorically refused, "You are all fake. How could I be deceived by you? You must have been instructed by some people to do this!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" The leader of the guards was furious, "If you continue to talk nonsense like this, don't blame us for being rude to you!"
"Hmph! Zhao Xueqing glanced at the leader of the guards with contempt and said mockingly: "You guys dare to touch me? It’s simply a fool’s dream! "
After saying that, she suddenly drew out the Chanjuan sword and stabbed the leader of the guards.
"court death!"
The leader of the guards shouted angrily, slapped the Chanjuan sword with one palm, and then used the other hand to slap Fu Tianpeng next to him.
Fu Tianpeng had already taken precautions and immediately slapped the back of his hand.
"ah!"
The leader of the guards screamed, and his arms instantly lost feeling.
Taking this opportunity, Fu Tianpeng and Zhao Xueqing hurriedly ran deep into the dense forest and disappeared from the sight of the guards in the blink of an eye.
"Chase me!"
The leader of the guards roared angrily.
...
At this moment, Zhao Xueqing and Fu Tianpeng had already arrived in the dense forest and hid in a patch of grass.
Zhao Xueqing wiped the sweat from her forehead and let out a long breath.
Fu Tianpeng also looked like he was surviving the disaster. He patted his chest and said rejoicing, "It's such a close call! If I had been a step late, I might have been captured alive by these thugs."
"Yeah, I really didn't expect that Uncle Fu would actually retain such a hand." Zhao Xueqing sighed.
"Haha, you didn't expect it, either." Fu Tianpeng smiled softly, "These people are much more cunning than you think. I just deliberately let them find out and let them relax their vigilance, and then I took you into the dense forest."
"So that's it." Zhao Xueqing nodded in sudden realization.
"We'd better go back quickly."
Zhao Xueqing suggested.
"good."
Fu Tianpeng agreed and walked out of the dense forest with Zhao Xueqing.
The two of them had just walked a few steps when a guard suddenly appeared in front of Zhao Xueqing and the other two.
When Zhao Xueqing saw this man, her expression suddenly changed.
This person is none other than the leader of the guards who had spoken to Zhao Xueqing before!
"Little girl, you didn't expect that, did you?" the leader of the guards said with a teasing smile, "Let's see where you run this time!"
"We have no enmity or grudge against you
Why do you have to kill us? "Zhao Xueqing stared at the leader of the guards coldly and asked.
The leader of the guards smiled and said: "I am also very surprised as to why I want to kill you, but since the master ordered me to kill you, then you two must die!"
Hearing this, both Zhao Xueqing and Fu Tianpeng fell into silence.
Seeing the silence of Zhao Xueqing and Fu Tianpeng, the leader of the guards sneered and said, "Don't even think about escaping. It's impossible for you to escape in this dense forest today!"
After speaking, the leader of the guards flicked the sharp blade in his hand, and a cold light flashed through.
"ah!"
Just when the sharp blade was about to fall on Zhao Xueqing's neck, a sword light suddenly shot out from the grass nearby and split the leader of the guards in half!
"Pfft!"
Blood shot out and sprinkled on the surrounding vegetation.
Seeing the sudden appearance of the person, Zhao Xueqing and Fu Tianpeng were both stunned.
Who is this person?
Why would he suddenly appear to save them?
When did he come in?
Zhao Xueqing was filled with doubts.
Fu Tianpeng also looked confused, but when he saw the young man who suddenly appeared in front of him, he couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Who are you?"
The young man glanced at Zhao Xueqing and did not answer.
Then, the young man turned his attention to the corpse.
Zhao Xueqing also noticed this scene, and she couldn't help but asked curiously: "Who are you? Why do you want to save us?"
The young man looked at Zhao Xueqing and was silent for a long time. Finally, he slowly uttered a sentence and said, "You don't deserve to know who I am."
Hearing this, Zhao Xueqing immediately frowned and said, "What do you mean? Could it be that you were also ordered to come here to kill us? But you and Fu Tianpeng are strangers, why did you want to kill us?"
Zhao Xueqing's voice was full of doubt, as if she didn't believe that the young man in front of her would have anything to do with them.
"hehe!"
The young man smiled and said, "You guessed it right, I was ordered to kill you, but you and my master are the targets I want to kill."
"Your master?" Zhao Xueqing was stunned and asked, "Who is your master?"
The young man was silent for a moment and said: "It's better for you not to know. However, I advise you that you'd better pray that your luck will always be this good. Otherwise, I guarantee that your life will be worse than death."
After saying that, the young man's figure slowly faded until he disappeared.
"Why......"
Zhao Xueqing sighed and murmured: "Who is this person?"
Fu Tianpeng was also puzzled.
"Forget it, no matter whether he is an enemy or a friend, we cannot leak what happened today!"
Zhao Xueqing warned.
"Yes, I know."
Fu Tianpeng nodded.
Next, the two of them continued walking towards the city gate.
However, just as the two of them passed through the dense forest and arrived near the city gate, suddenly, a group of men in black came from all directions and surrounded the two of them.
Seeing so many men in black appearing, the expressions of Zhao Xueqing and Fu Tianpeng changed slightly.
"Haha, you really can't escape."
The leader of the guards smiled jokingly, "However, since you are quite smart, I can let you go. In this case, you two, come back to the capital with me to recover."
"Return to life?" Zhao Xueqing frowned slightly.
"Yes, you two have violated the law, so you must offend, otherwise, you will suffer." The leader of the guards said with a sinister smile.
After listening to his words, Zhao Xueqing and Fu Tianpeng were silent.
They know very well that these people are definitely coming for them!
They are not ordinary people in the world, but the secret guards of the royal family!
But why are they targeting them?
Could it be...
A flash of inspiration flashed in Zhao Xueqing's mind.
There was a vague premonition in her heart.
But soon, she put away the speculation in her mind. After all, this was unlikely.
They are just ordinary people, how could anyone want to kill them?
"Haha, little girl, I see you are quite innocent, so I won't beat around the bush. You have indeed violated the law. Moreover, it is also involved in a shocking secret. This matter is of great importance. As long as I catch you In the palace, someone will tell you when the time comes." The leader of the guards smiled.
"A shocking secret?" Zhao Xueqing and Fu Tianpeng looked at each other.
Are their guesses correct?
The purpose of these men in black is to kill them?
"Little girl, let me choose a path for you now. Come with us or die. It's your choice!" the leader of the guards said with a sneer.
"snort!"
Fu Tianpeng snorted coldly and said, "Do you think I will be afraid?"
"Really? Then I want to see if you have the courage." The leader of the guards smiled sinisterly.
After saying that, the leader of the guards flipped his wrist and took out a short sword. Fu Tianpeng quickly dodged, but was stabbed in the arm by the leader of the guards.
"Brother Tianpeng!"
Zhao Xueqing exclaimed when she saw this scene.
"It's okay, don't worry."
Fu Tianpeng shook his head and comforted Zhao Xueqing.
Zhao Xueqing looked slightly anxious. She gritted her teeth, turned around and attacked the leader of the guards, trying to stop him.
"Little girl, you are seeking death!"
The leader of the guards shouted angrily and stabbed Zhao Xueqing again with the dagger in his hand.
"boom!"
Zhao Xueqing couldn't dodge and punched the opponent in the chest.
"Well......"
The leader of the guards covered his chest, a look of pain flashed across his face.
However, he was a royal guard after all, and he soon recovered.
"Damn it, this little girl dared to sneak up on me!"
The leader of the guards roared in anger.
When Zhao Xueqing saw this, she was secretly happy and quickly took advantage of the victory to pursue her.
"boom!"
Another punch hit the opponent's chest.
