Li Runjin suddenly got goose bumps all over his body.
He immediately realized the danger and instinctively curled up.
However, he was still a step too late, and the arrow targeted him like a poisonous snake.
puff!
There was a dull sound as the arrow pierced the flesh, and Li Runjin's shoulder seemed to be pushed hard by someone, and he staggered and fell to the ground.
There was an arrow stuck in his shoulder, deep into the flesh.
"Who, who is it, come out here!" Li Runjin struggled to his feet from the ground in pain, roaring.
The men around him looked around frantically, trying to find the direction from which the arrow came.
However!
whoosh whoosh whoosh!
One arrow after another, and several more arrows were shot immediately.
Several rebels near Li Runjin fell down immediately.
Most of these rebels were ordinary people and had never seen such a scene.
Dozens of people stayed where they were, motionless, not daring to make a sound, for fear that if they moved, they would be hit by arrows and die.
At this moment, Bai Ruolan was naturally shocked when someone suddenly came to her rescue.
She didn't know who had done it.
But the fact that he was able to take action when she was in such a critical situation was definitely not a spur-of-the-moment act of bravery, but was well prepared.
Bai Ruolan's heart trembled. She felt that the person who came was most likely someone she knew.
"Surround me, don't let them shoot me!" Li Runjin, who was curled up on the ground, yelled at his men.
The men under his command could only cower in fear, huddle together and stand in front of Li Runjin.
call out!
Another arrow, and a rebel fell to the ground!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Then two more arrows were shot, and the two rebels fell down.
Among the rebels, panic was spreading rapidly like a virus.
They had no idea where the cold arrows came from, as they were hidden in the dark.
Everyone looked at the hillsides on both sides in panic, which was the general direction from which the arrows came.
But after arrows were shot one after another and more than a dozen rebels fell, their mentality collapsed.
They don’t know whether the next arrow will hit their heads!
Rather than choosing an uncertain death, it is better to take a chance and escape.
"Brother Li, let's retreat quickly! The enemy won't come out from the shadows. If they continue like this, we'll be scared to death!"
Several of his men looked up the hillside in fear and hurriedly reported to Li Runjin that they wanted to retreat.
Li Runjin was shot in the shoulder and one of his arms could no longer be lifted.
Now that so many of his men have died one after another, but he hasn't seen any shadow of his opponent, he has already been thinking about how to escape.
Otherwise, the arrow that seemed to have eyes would target him, and it would not be as simple as being shot in the shoulder, but would cost him his life.
"Go! Go quickly!" Li Runjin shouted impatiently.
He is under the greatest pressure now.
The other party should be coming for him.
After all, the first arrow was shot at him. If he hadn't been strong and alert, that arrow would have taken his life.
Hearing Li Runjin's roar, the men around him immediately scattered like birds and beasts.
"You bunch of bastards, what about me? How could you leave me behind?" Li Runjin was angry.
It turned out that after he gave the order to retreat, the remaining seventy or eighty men all ran away on their own, leaving Li Runjin alone to eat dirt.
But once people disperse, it becomes difficult to recall them.
The injured Li Runjin could only cover his wound and prepare to escape.
call out!
Another arrow shot and hit Li Runjin's knee.
Li Runjin's body tilted and he fell to the ground again.
This arrow had already shattered his knee.
He howled in pain, cursing as he struggled on the ground.
Bai Ruolan watched this scene clearly from the side.
Although the person who rescued her never showed up from beginning to end, he intimidated the rebels with the pressure brought by his precise archery skills.
Now, except for the rebel leader who was injured and wailing in pain, all the other rebels had fled.
"Please show yourself, benefactor, and accept my greeting!" Bai Ruolan shouted loudly towards the hillside.
There was no response from the hillside, only three figures running towards her.
Bai Ruolan's heart was pounding. Among the three figures, one of them seemed very familiar.
"Miss, it's Mr. Zhao!"
Chunxiang had sharp eyes and quickly recognized that the leader was Zhao Muyun.
"Young Master Zhao? Zhao Muyun!" Bai Ruolan froze in place.
I heard he's in Yinzhou, isn't he? How did he know I was here?
As Zhao Muyun and the other two approached, Bai Ruolan saw Li Si beside Zhao Muyun and understood everything in an instant.
She stood there awkwardly, not daring to look at Zhao Muyun.
"Zhu Zi, keep an eye on this man for me. Interrogate him and get as much information as possible about the rebels."
After Zhao Muyun gave Wang Tiezhu some instructions, he strode towards Bai Ruolan.
Bai Ruolan lowered her head, and her heart trembled when she heard Zhao Muyun's footsteps approaching.
The man's breath hit her face, and Zhao Muyun was already in front of her.
"Miss Bai, are you okay? How could you, a woman, put yourself in danger? Don't you know that rebels frequently appear here?"
"If I hadn't gotten there in time, you would have been abducted by the rebels!"
Looking at Bai Ruolan, who was wearing men's clothes and lowering her head to pinch the corner of her clothes, Zhao Muyun felt pity for her. He could not say any words of concern, but was full of blame.
But amidst the blame, there was also a lot of concern.
Bai Ruolan didn't find it offensive at all when Zhao Muyun scolded her like that. Instead, she felt a sweet sensation in her heart.
