Chapter 215 False Surprise
I don't know when the clear starry sky was blocked by clouds, and the empty earth suddenly became much darker. The five people sitting around the three carriages couldn't help looking up, and their faces were a little solemn. One of them took a look with several others and got up to wake up the other five people who were leaning against each other to rest. On the other side, Huo Bao, who was turning around the carriage for a few times, also felt a little inappropriate and vigilantly swept the higher mountain bags around him.
At this moment, a broken sound came gently. Huo Bao immediately climbed to the ground and shouted, "Three people stay to protect the little lady, and the others will deal with the archers..."
While Huo Bao's voice fell, the seven people had dispersed separately. Soon, with a few screams, the sharp arrows were no longer shooting. This instantaneous thing still shocked Lv Xianger in the carriage. Because the flying arrow hit one of the horses carrying objects. The hissing of the horse made the other horses restless.
At the same time, Huo Bao also woke up Lu Xianger and the three people in the carriage. After telling the three people a few words, Huo Bao stepped forward to block a warrior who rushed over. Yes, these people are all dressed as warriors, with extremely ordinary appearances, but with a fierce look on their faces.
Huo Bao didn't expect that there would be a surprise attack. He was very surprised, but his men did not leave any affection. But the other party has a large number of people and is not weak. It really takes some time to get rid of them all. But the sudden sound of horses' hoofs in the distance made Huo Bao's heart sink.
"Quick battle, it seems that someone is coming this way again. In any case, don't let the little lady get hurt. Huo Bao thought of Huo Qingsong's instructions and made up his mind that he could no longer let Lv Xianger be abtured or injured like that in Jiangling Mansion this time. Otherwise, he will only die and atone for his sins.
Huo Bao thought of that experience, and Lu Xianger was the same as him. Lv Xianger didn't know the purpose of these people who suddenly appeared, but she was scared. That time, the other party didn't do anything to her in order to get the soju craft. But this time, Lv Xianger was not sure. In case she was abduction, she could not imagine what would happen.
Especially when she heard Huo Bao say that someone was coming again, Lv Xianger immediately held the sword on her neck in her hand. When Lv Wei and Lv Yun saw Lv Xianger's movements, they also remembered the dagger Huo Bao gave them to cut meat, and quickly took it out and held it in their hands.
"Be careful, there are still archers who haven't solved it..." I don't know whose voice suddenly sounded, which startled Lv Xianger and the three people in the carriage. The three looked at each other and wanted to hide in the corner of the carriage. But just then, a sharp arrow flew in through the window of the carriage.
When the sharp arrow flew over, there was a feeling in his heart that something seemed to fly into the carriage. The feeling at this moment was very wonderful, but Lvwei was not in a hurry to think about it and suddenly rushed to Lv Xianger. In the blink of an eye, with the 'Ouch' sound of the three people colliding with each other, the sharp arrow flew into the carriage with a cold light and nailed it to the wooden frame of the carriage. Looking at the arrow feathers that were still trembling, Lv Xianger's faces turned white. If it hadn't been for the green, the sharp arrow would have penetrated her chest.
"Oh, Sister Lvwei, you're hurt." The green cloud under the lowest felt a little hot on his face. As the ** flowed near the green cloud's nose, she smelled blood. Looking up, the green cloud found that the green arm was bleeding.
Huo Bao outside the carriage was suddenly anxious when he heard the exclamation in the carriage. He rushed to the side of the car but did not dare to open the curtain. He said urgently, "Little lady, you are injured. It's all Huo Bao's incompetence..."
"Huo Bao, it's not me, it's Lvwei. Just concentrate on the enemy and don't let the other party take advantage of it. Huo Bao was relieved when he heard that Lu Xianger was fine. But when he heard that it was Lvwei, Huo Bao became anxious again and wanted to ask how Lvwei was injured. But thinking of hearing the scream next to him, he closed his mouth, turned around, and rushed over again.
Just as Lv Xianger and Lv Yun bandaged the wound cut by the sharp arrow, the sound of horses' hoofs in the distance was getting closer and closer. Huo Bao didn't know whether the person who came was an enemy or a friend, and his forehead gradually sweated, but he was thinking about whether to run away with Lv Xianger.
When Huo Bao thought of this, he turned around and returned to the carriage. But when he was about to whisper his plan, a sharp arrow flew in the distance and shot the other party to death on the spot. At the same time, a heroic voice also sounded: "Take down the thief quickly and protect the little lady..."
Hearing this, Huo Bao immediately turned his head and looked away. Seeing the middle-aged man sitting on the horse and coming towards him, Huo Bao immediately said happily, "Uncle Mo, why are you here?"
"Let's solve these people first." The middle-aged man looked at Huo Bao and then at the ten people. Although these ten people were carefully selected by Huo Qingsong, there are more than 20 people on the other side. It's not bad that none of them died in battle. If it comes a little later, I'm afraid they will all die here.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man's eyes immediately flashed with a cold light and said coldly, "The people in the general's mansion retreat and rest, and leave the rest to us. Children, if you can keep it alive, you can leave it alive. If you can't leave it alive, you can't get out of here.
After saying that, the middle-aged man turned to the carriage and whispered, "Li Mo is late, please forgive me."
Lv Xianger was very familiar with this heroic voice, as if signaling the green cloud to open the curtain. Seeing the appearance of the middle-aged man, Lv Xianger immediately remembered the middle-aged man who followed Li Xingzhou when she met Li Xingzhou for the first time and went to the warm pot shop.
Recalling that Li Xingzhou wrote in his letter that he would send someone to protect himself, Lv Xianger immediately said happily, "It's outside, old prince..."
"Go back to the little lady, it's the old prince. He was afraid that the little lady would meet Xiaoxiao on the way, so he ordered me to take people to protect the little lady in secret. Li Mo smiled at Lv Xianger, indicating that he knew Lv Xianger's identity. Lv Xianger looked at the charitable eyes in Li Mo's eyes and realized that he was the old man of the Li family. She nodded and let Lv Yun put down the curtain.
When Li Mo saw that Lv Xianger encountered such a thing, although her face was a little pale, she was in good spirits. I couldn't help sighing in my heart that it was worthy of the blood of the Li family, and I could calm down when I met anything. Thinking of the little sister who had followed him, Li Mo's eyes were a little moist. The person in this carriage is her only bloodline.
Thinking of this, Li Mo's face suddenly became cold. After turning around, he looked at the fallen 'samurai' one by one. A cold light flashed in Li Mo's eyes and hummed, "These people are not simple. They have been following you since they come out of the capital, but they only started to fight when they left Huaifeng Mansion. They are calm enough. If I hadn't been afraid that they would find out, I wouldn't have been a step late to get here.
"What?" Huo Bao was slightly stunned, and then looked at the 'samurai'. He didn't expect that he would be targeted when he left Beijing. And they didn't do it until they left Huaifeng Mansion. Obviously, they had planned it for a long time. After leaving Huaifeng Mansion, there will be few people. Even if something happens, it will not be known. It seems that someone doesn't want Lv Xianger to reach Dengzhou alive.
With more than 20 people brought by Li Mo, the other party's 'samurai' soon couldn't support it. However, these people seemed to be trained. They didn't say a word from beginning to end. Even if they were injured and died, they just screamed. And when he found that he seemed unable to escape, he fell to the ground with a knife, and no one was willing to kneel down and surrender.
Seeing this scene, Li Mo did not have any joy in saving people's success, and his expression became more and more solemn. When he checked the dead bodies but did not find any clues, Li Mo frowned more tightly. Looking at the bright sky, Li Mo restrained his emotions and said to Huo Bao, "The blood here is too heavy. Change to another place to do a little repair before starting."
"Okay, listen to Uncle Mo." Huo Bao knew the experience of the people in front of him from Huo Qingsong. After Li Mo appeared, Huo Bao listened to his arrangement without any objection.
Lv Xianger in the carriage has already smelled the smell of blood outside, and her stomach has begun to roll around. She can't wait to leave here immediately. At this time, when she heard Li Mo's arrangement, she naturally did not have any objection. However, she also knew that the ten people escorted along the way were more or less injured, so she asked Huo Bao to put the price of the last two horses into one. The rest of a carriage came out to recuperate the ten people.
I didn't expect that the ten people would firmly disagree. If Lv Xianger persisted, they would be ashamed to suicide. Huo Bao also understood their hearts and did not force them. But when he thought of Huo Qingsong's reperation, Huo Bao felt more guilty. If it hadn't been for the thoughtfulness of the loyal and brave king, Lv Xianger would have been so bad.
Li Mo saw Huo Bao's thoughts and comforted him, "You didn't even think of your general. How can you think of it?" At that time, your general will know and just blame yourself. How can he blame you? Moreover, the little lady was just frightened. It's a big deal. I'll make up for it in the future."
With Li Mo's comfort, Huo Bao thought of 'complenishing his achievements'. From the beginning of the journey again, Huo Bao tried his best and was as cautious as marching and fighting. He really wants the other party to take action again and let him find out who the other party is. Unfortunately, I don't know whether it was the previous failure or whether the other party felt that Li Mo was by his side and never appeared again.
Lv Xianger vaguely felt who sent someone to get rid of her. Lv Xianger doesn't have many enemies. There are only a few of them. However, without evidence, Lv Xianger could only think about it in her heart. Thinking that she was always remembered by the other party, Lv Xianger didn't know whether she was crying for her bad luck or laughing at her honor to be hated.
Lv Xianger, who has something in mind, is not in the mood to enjoy the scenery outside during the next journey. When Li Mo saw Lv Xianger's thoughtful appearance during the rest, the surprise in his eyes flashed from time to time. After chatting with Lv Xianger, Li Mo was gratified when he looked at Lv Xianger again.
Finally, after eight days of slow driving, Lv Xianger and her party finally saw a more decent state city - Dengzhou after Huaifeng Mansion.
