Miss Bingbing and her two companions struggled forward in the dense forest.
Suddenly, Lao Wu slipped and broke a dead branch.
"Shh——" The fourth brother immediately signaled for silence.
The three of them held their breath and concentrated, only to hear the barking of dogs in the distance.
"Oh no, they even brought hunting dogs!" Lao Wu's face turned pale.
Miss Bingbing made a quick decision: "Go to the river! The river water can cover up the smell!"
The three of them quickly slid down the steep slope and jumped into the river.
Fortunately, it is summer and the river water is just a little cool.
The barking of hounds was getting closer, and the light of torches could be seen through the gaps in the woods.
The three men completely immersed their bodies in the water, leaving only their nostrils exposed for breathing.
"Strange, the smell stops here." The rebels' mutterings were heard from the shore.
"Keep searching! They can't get far!"
The footsteps gradually faded away. The three of them waited for about a quarter of an hour and climbed ashore only after confirming that it was safe.
"Miss, are you okay?"
The fourth brother looked at the soaked girl Bingbing with concern. Her figure was exquisite and curvy under the moonlight. He quickly turned his head to the side.
"No...it's okay..." She forced herself to stand up. "We have to keep going. Once we pass the Tiger Killing Pass to the north, we'll be in Lord Zhao's territory. We'll be safe then."
Just as the three were about to leave, a crossbow arrow suddenly flew through the air and hit the fifth brother in the shoulder!
"Ah!" Lao Wu cried out in pain and staggered to the ground.
"Someone is coming!" The fourth brother immediately drew his sword and protected Miss Bingbing behind him.
More than ten men in black wearing conical hats walked out of the bushes, and the leader was Master Feng.
"Miss Fan, I've long heard of your name." Master Feng said with a sinister smile, "I never thought that the daughter of the Minister of War would become the assassin of Zhao Muyun in Shuozhou. No one would believe this!"
Miss Bingbing's face turned pale: "Who are you?"
"Xuetangzhai, the one who took your life. My own brother died at the hands of your accomplices!"
Master Feng's face was ferocious, and he looked at Miss Bingbing as if she were a dead person.
"What Zhai or Tang? I've never heard of them! So that withered old man in Shuyuxuan is your brother!"
Seeing that there was no way to retreat, Miss Bingbing simply shouted mockingly.
She had a dagger in her hand. She couldn't escape and was ready to end her life at any time. She would never fall into their hands and be humiliated.
He could hear the sting in Miss Bingbing's words, and Master Feng waved his hand: "Kill!"
The fourth brother roared and swung his sword to meet the enemy.
He must be very skilled in martial arts to be able to serve as Fan Nan's guard together with Fan Tong.
Back then, at the Lotus Leaf Peak of the Black Camel Mountain, three or five of them blocked the crazy attack of the Tartars.
But Xuetangzhai is a killer organization, and the team is led by the owner himself, so the people they bring with them are definitely not ordinary people.
The long sword in the fourth brother's hand shone coldly in the moonlight as he fought with two assassins from Xuetangzhai.
His swordsmanship was sharp, and he was eager to protect the young lady, so he fought hard and stabbed the two killers.
Seeing that two of his men couldn't handle a guard, Master Feng's eyes turned cold, and he didn't know how he did it.
A figure flashed by and he passed by the fourth brother.
The fourth brother stayed there motionless, then fell down limply.
"Fourth Brother!" Miss Bingbing cried out in grief, raised the dagger and pointed it at her chest, preparing to commit suicide.
The injured Lao Wu suddenly jumped up and hugged Feng Zhaizhu's legs: "Miss, run!"
Miss Bingbing hesitated for a moment, and then she heard Lao Wu's scream - Master Feng stabbed him in the back with a knife.
Tears blurred her vision and Miss Bingbing turned and ran.
From behind, Master Feng's sneer came: "Chase! He must be alive!"
She stumbled and ran through the dense forest, unaware of the branches whipping her face.
After passing through the woods, we came to a clearing.
Master Feng and his men formed a semicircle and surrounded Miss Bingbing in the open space.
"Don't come over here, or I'll kill myself!"
Just now, the fourth and fifth brothers used their lives to exchange for Bingbing's little hope of survival, but now she is desperate!
"Little girl, you're still young, so if you have something to say, just talk to it nicely and don't be so pessimistic..."
Master Feng gestured to his men and slowly walked over.
As long as he was ten steps away, he was absolutely sure that he could subdue Miss Bingbing before she committed suicide and stop her from committing suicide.
"Stop!" Bingbing shouted.
"Okay, okay, we won't come over!"
Master Feng raised his hand to signal his men not to act rashly.
While he was speaking, he took a few steps forward.
It was on his way from Xiazhou to Dejing that he received information from the studio and learned that this Bingbing girl was actually Fan Nan's daughter.
Moreover, she also became Zhao Muyun's killer.
Master Feng didn't want Miss Bingbing to die so easily.
The living Miss Bingbing is more valuable.
"Miss Fan, why are you doing this? Minister Fan only has you as his daughter. If you die, wouldn't it be like sending someone young to their grave?"
Master Feng saw that Miss Bingbing did not move, so he spoke to attract her attention. Unconsciously, he took another step forward.
Bingbing was touched by Master Feng's words. Her eyes were fixed on the subject and she did not notice that Master Feng was very close to her.
By the time she realized it, Master Feng had already moved within ten steps.
He was not afraid that Bingbing would commit suicide.
"I advise you to put down the knife and come back with us. I guarantee you'll survive." Master Feng's voice suddenly became stiff. "Otherwise, don't blame me for taking action!"
"Don't even think about it. I'll kill you now!" Bingbing made up her mind and pointed the dagger at her chest.
