When Xing Lie, Han Wenjing, and Lin Rui were discussing, three or two of their personal guards rushed in and said, "Major General, something terrible has happened. The people from Yishu Pass have surrounded the entire mansion."
Han Wenjing's brows were furrowed so tightly that they could kill a fly: "So fast!"
Xing Lie pulled his sword from its sheath: "Isn't the premise of replacing the dead with the dead the original owner must be completely wiped out first?"
Lin Rui was also panicking at this moment, but his mind was working quickly: "Break through, we must break through. If we don't fight, we will really become the withered bones of Yishu Pass!"
Xing Lie and Han Wenjing thought the same. Xing Lie asked Sanliang to immediately summon all the personal soldiers in the mansion, and prepare to find the place where the guards of the mansion were weak and escape first. Even though the personal soldiers of the Xing family army had just arrived, they did not lower their vigilance against unfamiliar places at all. After observing the layout of the general's mansion, they immediately found a hidden evacuation route, which would come in handy now.
Lin Rui put on the armor placed in the bedside box again. It was a bit heavy and tiring, but he was determined to save his life. As long as he had the armor, he would not die in the first place if he encountered danger, and he could return to his mansion.
I really hope that one day his Golden Finger Mansion can be upgraded to have a self-defense mechanism, which will automatically take the host into the mansion space whenever the host encounters damage that exceeds a few tens of percent of the host's energy.
They evacuated from an unlit corridor and could see figures lurking on the roof of the main house. The bright moonlight softly sprinkled on the earth and on this small courtyard. However, the moonlight on the ground of the courtyard was divided into blank sections by the densely woven rope net.
Lin Rui saw that the density of this rope net was almost as high as the family-destroying nets made by greedy fishermen. Not to mention flies, even mosquitoes couldn't fly out, let alone people escaping from it.
He couldn't help but whisper, "They really want to catch us all in one fell swoop!"
Sanliang was guarding Lin Rui. After being immersed in the military camp for such a long time, he also had some understanding of these military methods. "Master, they used this net because they were afraid that the major general would launch signal fireworks into the sky to attract reinforcements."
These people really put a lot of thought into the people in Huangmo Pass and made preparations for a rainy day.
General Chu, Yan Xiuyu's most trusted confidant, was no pushover either. Seeing the figure inside not moving for a long time, he knew there was going to be an explosion and immediately shouted, "Archers, get ready!"
Lin Rui felt arrows coming at him from all directions, accompanied by a fierce wind. One of his personal guards hiding in the shadows was shot and fell to the ground with a muffled groan. He was immediately helped up by his companions. "How are you?"
"Nothing..." Before he could finish the word "nothing", the man's body shook violently and white foam appeared at the corners of his mouth.
Everyone knew what was going on. The arrow must have been coated with a deadly poison, a very strong one that could kill him instantly. He would fall to the ground with a black face in less than three seconds.
"Fuck!" Lin Rui cursed in his heart. He wanted to send them directly into reincarnation!
When Xing Lie and Han Wenjing were retreating, they did not forget to protect Lin Rui, the fragile one, in the innermost part. Lin Rui was so moved that his eyes were filled with tears. These two people were simply half-brothers who saved his life in such a critical situation.
"ah!"
Before he finished his inner drama, he heard another guard scream. It turned out that an arrow had happened to pierce his left eye. The pain was so unbearable that the guard couldn't help but wail.
The sound was short, and the poison took effect in less than three seconds before he died. The location of the attack was too insidious, closest to the head, and it damaged the nerves in the head, so there was no way he would survive.
Chu Wu's scarred face was filled with bloodthirsty satisfaction, and he said grimly, "Found it!"
Then Lin Rui felt that more arrows were shot at the alley where they were hiding, and they were discovered by the enemy.
"Protect the Major General!"
"Protect Master Lin!"
Han Wenjing...it turned out that he was the cheapest. He danced the sword in his hand to create an afterimage and knocked the incoming arrows to the ground.
San Liang did the same when he was beside Lin Rui, protecting Lin Rui firmly behind him. The incident happened suddenly, and what San Liang took today was not the meteor hammer specially customized for him in the military camp, but a gun he found in the chaos. He brandished the gun with great vigor, and also shot the incoming arrows into pieces.
"Everyone be careful, the arrows are coated with poison!" Xing Lie reminded his guards while retreating.
The arrows were shot too densely. Even though Lin Rui had been hiding from place to place, he felt a strong impact on a part of his armor. Fortunately, he had some armor to protect him, otherwise he would have been killed.
Today, Yan Xiuyu and his men were determined to keep Xing Lie here. They shot arrows without regard for the cost, making all the guards protecting them pay with their lives.
The blood of the personal guards splashed all over the heads and faces of Xing Lie, Lin Rui and others, but they had no time to grieve at this moment. The last hope of these young lives was that the major general would escape danger as soon as possible.
Sanliang was still protecting Lin Rui in front. They had reached the blind spot of shooting. Behind them was a retreat route prepared in advance by the personal guards. It was just dug today and would be used in the evening.
Lin Rui and Sanliang used their hands and feet to kick open the wall that was blocking the way, revealing the passage inside. "Quick! Major General Han, retreat quickly!"
Xing Lie held the sword in one hand: "You and Han Wenjing go first, I will take care of the aftermath!"
Han Wenjing said, "How can this be possible! Young General, your safety is at stake."
"Stop talking about this, my kung fu is better than both yours and Lin Rui's!"
"Major General!"
"Master Han, I am the Major General, you must obey my orders!"
After a long argument, Han Wenjing still couldn't persuade the young general. When he was about to crawl into the passage, he found that Lin Rui had already jumped out a long way. He didn't know whether to hate or be angry. As a subject, he actually abandoned his master's life and fled on his own. Pah, how unbearable!
The four of them finally made it out without any danger. Behind this passage was a forest, a dark and windy forest. Haha, what a murderous night! Lin Rui could even imagine the scene of the assassination by the men in black.
Oh, that’s not right. This is the territory of Xinyang Hou of Yishuguan. In their own territory, they can kill people openly.
As long as Xing Lie's close associates die and Jing Que takes their place, who would care about the real Major General of the Xing Family Army at Huangmo Pass who died in Yishu Pass of Xinyang Hou!
As soon as they entered the woods, everyone ran as fast as they could, heading towards the camp of the 3,000 soldiers of the Xing family army. Xing Lie held the signal fireworks tightly in his arms, waiting to detonate them once they reached the effective distance.
Lin Rui saw the reflection of metal in the grass by the moonlight. Before his brain could react to what it was, his mouth shouted faster than his brain: "Watch out for the grass!"
