Chapter 82: Escape
After receiving the order, the guards dispersed like umbrellas and then closed again.
This was intended to surround them.
In addition, A Shijian was standing on the roof of Sun Rulan's car, staring at this side covetously.
Wen Yan cursed inwardly, feeling unlucky.
He turned around and grabbed Ying Zhilin's hand: "Let's go quickly."
"Wait a minute." Ying Zhilin pulled her back.
"We can't wait any longer. There are so many people on the other side, and the one on the carriage is incredibly powerful. We can't defeat them at all. Let's just run away."
If I can hurt Sun Rulan, this trip today will not be in vain.
There will be plenty of opportunities in the future to deal with him slowly.
"Since we can't beat him, let's just destroy him, otherwise we won't be able to escape unscathed." Ying Zhilin had already sat in the archery position.
He took the wooden arrow, aimed at the carriage, and shot it.
"You brat, you're looking for death!" A Shijian blocked the attack with his sword and pointed it in their direction.
Ying Zhilin did not stop and shot arrow after arrow.
For Wen Yan, the tendon that required all her strength to be pulled apart was easily pulled apart by Ying Zhilin, as if it were a piece of cake.
Upon seeing this, Wen Yan quickly handed him the arrow.
He shot arrow after arrow.
The sound of breaking through the air was endless.
Ah Shijian blocked repeatedly, as easily as tickling.
While blocking, he still had the leisure to tease and provoke: "Ha! A villain who can only hide in the dark and attack, that's all! Why is the arrow so weak? Is it because you haven't eaten enough, or are you just a woman?"
"When your arrows are exhausted, your head and body will be separated."
Ah Shijian was extremely arrogant.
The tone and attitude were like teasing a little mouse!
Even the guards who came to encircle the two of them deliberately slowed down to allow A Shijian to have a good time.
Ying Zhilin stopped at this moment.
"What's wrong?" Wen Yan asked him in a low voice.
"I remember you still have two tendons."
"Do you want to use it?" Wen Yan quickly took it out.
Ying Zhilin took down the original one, twisted three tendons together, and tied it up again.
Wen Yan took a breath.
Can he pull it?
Just as he thought of this, he saw him draw his bow and arrow.
I could see the veins on the back of his hands bulging, showing that he was struggling.
"Wait a moment." Wen Yan quickly took out a small green bottle from her bag.
Sprinkle the powder on the wooden arrow and say, "Shoot."
Ah Shijian was still shouting provocatively from the other side: "Why don't you shoot? I can't be so quick to hit the target. I have no arrows..."
call out--
Before A Shijian could finish his words, he quickly drew his sword to block.
This arrow was shot with great force.
Ah Shijian, who underestimated his enemy, was knocked back several steps and only managed to stand firm after hitting the carriage.
call out……
Another arrow shot forward.
Ah Shijian swung his sword vertically.
Swish——
The wooden arrow broke into two.
Even when cut in half, its speed did not decrease.
Puff——
Half of the wooden arrow shot into A Shijian's arm.
"Damn it!" A Shijian cursed.
Wen Yan was delighted.
Got it.
The wooden arrows kept shooting out.
A Shijian didn't take the minor injury seriously at all and continued to block with all his strength.
Suddenly, he staggered, felt a sharp pain in his heart, and his limbs gradually became numb.
He leaned his sword against the ground, his expression changing drastically: "The arrow is poisonous!"
"You despicable villain, doing things that are shameful." A Shijian was furious, and his resistance became powerless.
Another arrow pierced his leg.
"Protect the young master." A Shijian shouted. He no longer wanted to fight, but climbed onto the carriage and hit the horse's butt with an arrow.
The horse felt pain and jumped out with its hooves kicked.
Half of the guards immediately withdrew to protect Sun Rulan and A Shijian.
The rest quickly outflanked them.
Since the prepared ones couldn't be used, Ying Zhilin threw wooden arrows at them.
In the blink of an eye, two people were injured.
The wooden arrows are used up.
"Run first." Wen Yan pulled Ying Zhilin and jumped off the tree.
"I'll carry you!" Ying Zhilin said, raising his hand to pick up Wen Yan.
Wen Yan jumped and lay on his back.
The remaining four guards followed closely.
The sky gradually darkened.
It was pitch dark in the mountains and forests.
Ying Zhilin was still walking on flat ground.
However, the guards found it increasingly difficult to chase.
Before long, they were left far behind.
Soon, they completely got rid of their pursuers.
However, they were not careless.
They ran for five miles before they stopped.
Ying Zhilin put Wen Yan down. He was sweating all over and his breathing was heavy, but not disordered.
He held onto the tree, catching his breath as he said to himself, "Not a single day of climbing the mountain road to the academy was wasted. All the skills I've learned were put to use today."
Wen Yan bowed to him: "Thank you so much for what you did just now!"
Although he failed to kill Sun Rulan, he was able to seriously injure A Shijian and poison him, which is also a considerable achievement.
Ying Zhilin said proudly: "Now you know I'm not a weak scholar, right? If you have any problems in the future, don't act alone, remember to find me."
Wen Yan also joked: "Okay! Next time I kill someone, I will definitely ask you for help."
Ying Zhilin clutched his chest, pretending to be hurt: "As expected! Contracted couples can only share the hardships, not the happiness."
Wen Yan was amused by his playful look: "If there is another opportunity to make money, I will definitely take you with me!"
As soon as she finished speaking, her stomach started to growl.
Wen Yan was so embarrassed that she dug her toes tightly together.
As a result, Ying Zhilin's stomach also started to growl.
Fortunately, it was dark and no one could see the other's embarrassed expression.
"Well, you take a rest first. I'm going to go hunt a pheasant." Wen Yan stood up and was about to leave.
"No need." Ying Zhilin handed her a bundle.
Wen Yan took the bag and said, "Isn't this my bag? You took it with you when you left!"
Wen Yan opened the bundle.
There are still a lot of things inside.
The only dry food left were sesame cakes and dried meat.
The two of them did not plan to stay with others for the night as it would be too easy for their whereabouts to be discovered.
So he found a big tree and spent the night under it without even lighting a bonfire.
The two of them ate and chatted.
Perhaps it was because they had experienced life and death together, or because they had a shared secret, but the relationship between the two became much closer.
Chatting is no longer limited to trivial matters at home.
Wen Yan was full and lay down on the ground covered with hay.
She suddenly pointed to the sky and said, "Ying Zhilin, look, the clouds have dispersed and the stars are out."
Ying Zhilin looked up as well.
Sure enough, I saw the sky full of stars and the shining Milky Way.
Wen Yan patted the empty seat beside him and said, "I'll rest first. It'll be your turn in the second half of the night."
"Okay." Ying Zhilin had just responded when Wen Yan fell asleep tiredly.
Ying Zhilin took off his coat and gently covered her with it.
Then he quietly took away Wen Yan's bag.
He searched her bag carefully and finally took out two porcelain bottles.
**
Sun Rulan's carriage sped all the way.
Enter the county town before the city gate is closed.
After entering the city, they split into two groups.
A group of people, taking Sun Rulan and A Shijian, went straight to the pharmacy.
Another group of people took Sun Rulan's badge and went to the county town to report the case.
Soon, the county government dispatched all its runners to the crime scene outside the city.
