"Sister Yuan, aren't Yiguli staying?" Anyu still wanted to take him away and torture him to see if he could get out some more valuable information.
"No need." Sheng Yuan glanced at him, "We are not internal guards, how can we ask for information?"
Anyu scratched his hair: "...Then what should we do now? Ouch! This Yang Pangui is obviously the grandson of the Protector of the Country, so why did he become a royal descendant of Qian Qi?"
"Whoever he is, what we have to consider now is to send the news back." Lu Sheng stared at Yanzhi.
This is their only partner who can deliver messages quickly.
"Iguli said that Yang Pangui is likely to attack the city tonight?"
Sheng Yuan looked around and wondered: "Although the suburbs of Beijing are large, can they store nearly ten thousand people?"
"To say that we have nearly 10,000 elite soldiers and generals, this may not be true, but to say the number of people... it's really not difficult." Lu Sheng said this, unable to stand, wishing he could grow wings and fly back to Kyoto immediately , "Sister Yuan, how can we go back? We can't just watch like this!"
Sheng Yuan touched her chin and nodded: "We definitely can't just watch like this, let me think about it!"
She was thinking hard here, but Chengdong had completed his task and came quickly to return to his life.
The three children, who were originally ambitious, gave up their previous thoughts and sighed after seeing the four wounded soldiers.
"Should we go to Zhuangzi in our academy to hide for a while?" Anyu felt that a sense of security was a little far away from him. "There is food and drink there, and there are many young men and women who can help resist."
"Who are you resisting? What are you resisting with?" Lu Sheng was the first to object, "You let the farmers on Zhuangzi hold a rake against the heavily armed elite soldiers?"
"It's not like there will definitely be a confrontation!" Anyu felt that as long as he was careful and didn't let the other party discover their traces, Zhuangzi would still be safe.
"Please, can you use your brain?" Lu Sheng pointed in the direction of the ambush and asked him, "Guess how they caught up with us! If we hadn't met Wen Wuniang, we would have stayed in the reed bushes for a while. We can meet Yang Pangui’s people ahead!”
"They guessed that we were going to Zhuangzi? Yes, we came out of there before! How could they not find out if they wanted to ask? It is said that the people who sent livestock to Zhuangzi are the same as them." Anyu's eyes widened, a little bit Worried, "Then where should we go?"
Saying this, without waiting for Lu Sheng to reply, he clapped his palms and said with bright eyes: "Sister Yuan, otherwise we won't go anywhere, we will just wait here! Let's repeat the same trick for them. Kill everyone who catches up!"
"Good idea!" Sheng Yuan heard this and immediately gave him a thumbs up.
Then she slumped her shoulders and shook her head: "What a pity, it can't be done!"
An Yu, who just looked at Lu Sheng with a proud smile, said: "..."
It's not difficult. Wasn't it easy to beat the Arong spy just now?
Sheng Yuan looked at him speechlessly and spread his hands: "The medicinal properties of the tripping rope have just evaporated, and now it is just a bundle of ordinary tools, and it seems that it can only trip one or two bunches. Without the tripping rope, What are you doing to stop the other party?
Also, we no longer have tools to attack the enemy from a distance. We only have used feather arrows to recharge, but these arrows are not as sharp as before, and their lethality is much less.
You don’t know how many men and weapons the enemy has, how dare you think of killing them in one go? "
She tore it apart and crushed it into pieces to reason with him. When Anyu heard this, he was speechless. The elation and pride brought by the small victory just now disappeared.
Lu Sheng nodded in agreement and said, "Sister Yuan is right. Our previous small victory was just a surprise. It is too difficult to repeat."
"So... what should we do now?" Anyu felt that the problem was back again. Where should they go now?
"How about we retreat south now?" Lu Sheng felt that it would be no problem in the mountain. The mountain was too small and it was impossible to hide for a long time.
After he finished speaking, he looked at Shengyuan.
"Iguli just said that Yang Pangui will send someone here!"
Sheng Yuan replied and looked at Chengdong and the other four: "If we go out hastily now, we might easily run into them.
What's more, there are often woodcutters coming and going in the mountains. If the woodcutter is also one of Yang Pangui's people, our traces will be easily exposed. "
"Young lady, you don't have to think about me. As long as you say a word, we will go through fire and water, no matter what!" Cheng Dong felt that he could hold on until he could send the three of them to safety.
The other three thought so too.
But An Yu rubbed his head after hearing this: "If I don't consider you, I have to consider Yang Pangui!"
He told the truth, and the touching atmosphere was immediately gone.
Lu Sheng and Sheng Yuan looked at each other and saw helplessness in each other's eyes.
"Do you want to hide here temporarily?" Lu Sheng understood.
"Here?!" Anyu said without waiting for Shengyuan to speak, stroking his hands, "Isn't this just using the darkness under the lamp to buy us time to deal with it? They definitely didn't expect us to stay where we were!"
Seeing that neither of them objected, Shengyuan asked Chengdong and four others to drive Yiguli's horse back.
"We'll wait until evening before heading south." Sheng Yuan found a bush that was good at hiding and planned to rest there.
Of course, before hiding, the traces of their journey must be erased.
"It can be made with just one vine!" Anyu took a piece of tripping rope, shook it and threw it to a branch near the grass. After making sure that the rope was strong, he flew over leisurely like an ape in the mountains. .
"..." Lu Sheng admired this friend's energy so much that he was feeling a little tired now.
When the three of them sat down in the bushes and were about to write down Yang Pangui's identity and plan, there was a sound of horse hooves coming from far away. Suddenly, the three of them couldn't help but lie down in the bushes and watch with bated breath.
…
"Boss! Look!"
Yang Pangui's followers listened to his men's calls and urged their horses to go over.
"Is this Iguli?!"
"Boss, if you look at his clothes, they should be right... They were killed with one knife. It looks like they were practicing martial arts!"
"Is this professional?" Yang Pangui's personal entourage looked around and urged the people he brought to survey the surroundings carefully.
"Boss! These people are dressed like Chu people!"
Yang Pangui's personal entourage walked forward and took a closer look: "People from the Duke of Sheng's Mansion and the Marquis of Baoxiang's Mansion? Are they killing each other? No way!"
"Boss! Traces were found from the direction up the mountain!"
This time, Yang Pangui's personal entourage did not go over immediately. Instead, he waved his hand and arranged for people to search the area: "We must not let go of any trace!"
Then he called the subordinate over: "Did they go down the mountain?"
"The boss is wise! Hehe!"
Yang Pangui's entourage sneered and raised his hand to knock his subordinates: "How wise is this! But I guessed that they might do the opposite!"
"Then shall we pursue him?"
When Yang Pangui heard this, he squinted his eyes and looked into the distance, and laughed out loud.
