Chapter 57 Attack on the way
"The godfather's clever calculation, Kou Zhun quickly went to Mu Guiying's camp again. Moreover, half a quarter of an hour later, Mu Guiying disguised and left the barracks..."
In the camp of Prime Minister Gao Yangguan, Wang Qiang sat behind several cases and looked at a book in his hand. But there was a person standing under the hall, bowing and telling Mu Guiying the movement in the camp. When the man's voice fell, Wang Qiang moved slightly and turned a page of the book in his hand. At the same time, he said softly, "Do as planned and let the two of them meet. After knowing the location of the 'Qiankun Cave', do it again.
"Father, Mu Guiying is the apprentice of Our Lady of Lishan. Do you need to send more people?" As he spoke, the man straightened up and showed the appearance of a middle-aged man. If it hadn't been for the fierceness in his eyes, this person's appearance would have been heroic. This person's surname is Di, his name is Yuyao, and he is the adopted son of Wang Qiang. At the same time, he is also Wang Qiang's most effective assistant and bodyguard.
Wang Qiang heard that Di Yuyao was so careful and smiled: "No need. Although Mu Guiying is a famous teacher, she is too young and a woman. If those people can't even deal with two little women, it's useless to keep them.
"Father, son, but I heard that Mu Gui even Yang Liulang has been shot down." Di Yuyao and Wang Qiang were on their way to the border gate, but they collected a lot of news from Mu Guiying. Wang Qiang smiled contemptuously: "Yuyao, you also said that it was just 'heard'. You have also met Mu Guiying. Do you think she can defeat Yang Liulang?
Di Yuyao paused, recalled Mu Guiying, and then shook his head: "Father, my son doesn't think it's true."
"Then let's go and do something." Wang Qiang turned over another page of the book, and his eyes were full of pride.
In fact, after Wang Qiang came out of Mu Guiying's camp, he ordered Di Yuyao to monitor secretly. Wang Qiang didn't believe that Kou Zhun couldn't hear the true meaning of the words he said in Mu Guiying's tent before: he would intercept Jiang Cuiping. Sure enough, as soon as Kou Zhun left, he returned to Mu Guiying's tent and asked Mu Guiying to save Jiang Cuiping, so that he could smoothly bring the herbs back to the border to treat the three soldiers who had been poisoned. Kou Zhun and Mu Guiying, who quickly chased Jiang Cuiping, didn't know at all. Wang Qiang was calculating them.
Mu Guiying was worried, so she rushed to the road. However, Jiang Cuiping didn't know why she was lost several times before returning to the route to Qiankun Cave. The time between the two came out of the border was more than an hour. Unexpectedly, for various reasons, it gradually got closer.
The sun is west, and Mu Guiying drives his horse on the mountain path. Soon, she found a fast horse running in the distance. Mu Guiying was overjoyed and immediately accelerated his speed and rushed to the man. As the distance narrowed, Mu Guiying couldn't help shouting: "Cuiping--"
Jiang Cuiping suddenly heard the sound behind and couldn't help looking back. Seeing that the person behind her was Mu Guiying, Jiang Cuiping immediately took the reins and stopped. Her heart was puzzled as to why Mu Guiying came after him. However, Jiang Cuiping suddenly felt uncomfortable. Normally, Mu Guiying suddenly made a sound in the mountains, which was also very loud. Why didn't the birds fly out of the woods, but it was silent?
At the same time, Mu Guiying also felt something wrong. Suddenly, she looked deep into the forest on the left side and immediately jumped up from the horse and rushed to Jiang Cuiping. Just as the two fell to the ground and rolled into the grass on the roadside, the trees flew out of rows of sharp arrows and inserted them on the mounts of Mu Guiying and Jiang Cuiping.
With the hissing of the horses, Jiang Cuiping immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and Mu Guiying was not much better. If it hadn't been for the spirit of the dragon tree hidden in the jade pendant worn by Mu Guiying, it would have suddenly issued a warning. Mu Guiying and Jiang Cuiping should become hedgehogs like that horse at this moment.
People in the woods didn't seem to think that Mu Guiying and Jiang Cuiping would avoid these sharp arrows. First, they calmed down for a while before drinking and rushing out. Jiang Cuiping was immediately furious when she thought that she had just died. Without waiting for Mu Guiying to speak, he immediately pulled out the double knives behind his back and immediately greeted him.
By the way, although Jiang Cuiping can't compare with Mu Guiying and has a good master, her master Ma Yungu is not a general person. Ma Yungu, like Zheng Daoping and Ren Dao'an, is a foreign master in the 'legend' in the Song Dynasty. Therefore, as Ma Xiangu's most proud disciple, Jiang Cuiping's ability is not comparable to that of ordinary people.
When Mu Guiying got up, Jiang Cuiping had already made friends with several people in black. However, the key goal of these people in black seems to be Mu Guiying. There were more than 30 people in total, only five or six of them surrounded Jiang Cuiping, and the rest rushed to Mu Guiying.
As soon as she saw this posture, Mu Guiying didn't know what was going on, so she traveled through time for nothing. While secretly scolding Wang Qiang's treachery, she pulled out the sword from her waist. At the same time, she secretly held a flying knife in Mu Guiying's other hand in case of emergency.
With this relationship, this group of people in black found the experience of Mu Guiying and Jiang Cuiping, two female generations. First, Mu Guiying fights with a group of people in black and does not fall behind. Jiang Cuiping was not inferior. She quickly solved the five or six people around her and rushed over to fight side by side with Mu Guiying.
After all, Mu Guiying and Jiang Cuiping are women, not as good as men in physical strength. The two also knew this, so they cooperated with each other and wanted to solve the people in front of them as soon as possible. And these people in black also raised fear in their hearts, thinking about whether to retreat or not. However, at this time, there was a horse's call in the distance. Mu Guiying swept away and secretly cried bitterly. It turned out that those people were also dressed in black and covered with black cloth. At a glance, I knew that they were in the same group with the people in front of them.
In fact, they are really a gang. However, they were divided into two groups, one followed Jiang Cuiping and the other followed Mu Guiying. The group of people who followed Mu Guiying caught up with her because they were afraid that Mu Guiying would find out. However, when they saw half of their men falling down and howling on the grass, they couldn't help shouting and driving over.
Jiang Cuiping is worthy of having been with Mu Guiying for so long. A look handed over by Mu Guiying waved two knives in the direction of their mounts. Mu Guiying saw the opportunity and turned over to take out her bow and arrow on her mount. When he got up again, a sharp arrow was already on the bow and shot out quickly.
Among the people in black who were coming, the front three people were hit by arrows on their mounts, and they immediately turned over, blocking the journey of the people behind them for a moment. Jiang Cuiping also took advantage of this time to break through a gap in the encirclement and rushed into the depths of the woods with Mu Guiying.
When the man in black saw that his companions were about to arrive, he was ready to rush into the woods to hunt down Mu Guiying and Jiang Cuiping. Thinking of it, as soon as they ran to the woods, they saw several sharp arrows flying out of it. Suddenly, several people had no time to dodge the arrow on the spot and stopped the man in black from chasing into the woods.
"Okay, don't chase it." Among the people in black, a man with a relatively locustous figure looked at the sky and immediately said, "Light the torch, a group of five people, each group ten steps apart, search carefully."
"Yes." The people in black took orders and immediately took action.
After Mu Guiying shot a few arrows deep in the woods, he took Jiang Cuiping to the west. Although Mu Guiying has never been to the 'Qiankun Cave', she has heard Li Tianwei boast about what her place in seclusion is like countless times. Therefore, Mu Guiying pretended to think about the route Li Tianwei said and went west.
However, the man in black is also chasing tightly, and Mu Guiying and Jiang Cuiping can't get rid of it. Thinking of going on like this, both of them may not be able to escape Wang Qiang's calculations. Mu Guiying grabbed Jiang Cuiping: "Cuiping, you go to Qiankun Cave to find Taoist priest Li first, and I will delay them..."
"Sister Ying, how can that..." Jiang Cuiping listened to Mu Guiying's words and immediately stopped agreeing. But Mu Guiying squeezed Jiang Cuiping's wrist and said with a serious face, "Listen to me. If we continue like this, no one can live before we reach the 'Qiankun Cave'. Moreover, you don't see that their main target is me. In addition, there are many Richi medicine in 'Qiankun Cave', and they can't know the location. So, I'm here to hold them down. Go to the 'Qiankun Cave' and ask someone to save me.
"Well, take care, sister Ying." Jiang Cuiping also noticed that she and Mu Guiying seemed to have been tricked, knowing that this was not the time to be righteous. Taking a deep look at Mu Guiying, Jiang Cuiping ran west with her own knives.
Mu Guiying saw Jiang Cuiping run away, so she pulled out her sword on a big tree and cut down several branches. The sound came not far from the wooden sticks that had just been 'repaired' the same length and the same thickness. Mu Guiying put away the wooden stick and turned around with an arrow. With a scream, Mu Guiying ran to the northwest.
"They went northwest. Hurry up--" With an order, all the people in black chased Mu Guiying.
Soon, under the light of the torch, the group of people in black chased to an open space. Seeing that there were many wooden sticks in the open space, the leading man in black immediately slowed down and hesitated. At this moment, the man in black who tried to pass through the wooden stick suddenly shouted, "I can't see anything. There is fog everywhere."
"Stop everything." The leading man in black immediately stopped the men in black who had not yet entered the wooden sticks and looked doubtfully at the people in black who were turning around the wooden sticks and becoming more and more flustered. At the same time, he shouted, "What are you doing? Get out quickly."
But those people in black didn't seem to hear it and still turned around. As he turned around, he shouted for help. The fear in the voice made those in black who did not enter the wooden stick retreat little by little. Then, some of the people in black in the wooden sticks collided with each other. But they didn't seem to recognize each other and began to tear each other up.
"It's your own, don't fight." The people in black outside the wooden sticks saw that the wooden sticks were strange. Some people want to save their companions, so they want to come forward and cut off those sticks. Unfortunately, as soon as I got to the wooden stick, I could no longer get out.
The man in black frowned and accidentally kicked the stone when he took a step forward to see the wooden sticks. Looking at the stones under his feet, the leading man in black hurriedly said, "Knock down those wooden sticks with stones."
After saying that, he took the lead in picking up the stone and throwing it at the stick. When other people in black saw this, they also picked up stones. It didn't take long for those wooden sticks to fall down, break, and no longer have their original shape. The man in black inside also stopped attacking each other, as if he recognized each other as his companion.
Mu Guiying, who was hiding in the woods, did not expect that his small formation with a wooden stick would be broken so quickly. In desperation, she had to sigh that it would not be so easy to break if she set up a big stone; while enduring hunger and continuing to 'run away'. Perhaps it was Mu Guiying's 'fog array' that aroused the fierce anger of the man in black. When the man in black chased Mu Guiying again, he did his best and did not stop to rest for a moment. Mu Guiying's physical strength is getting weaker and weaker, and her body is getting more and more tired.
However, these are not the most distressing things for Mu Guiying. What makes her want to swear most is that there is no way ahead. Through the bright light in the sky, Mu Guiying found that in front of him was a sea of beautiful clouds. Further ahead, you will jump straight off the cliff.
The sound behind her was getting closer and closer, and Mu Guiying's heart was also raised. If Jiang Cuiping doesn't come again, then Mu Guiying will die...
