"Where did you get your bow?"

Leng Zhiruo asked.

She didn't remember bringing a weapon.

Su Xiaoxiao pointed at the black bear who was playing with his head and said calmly, "Oh, I hid it in the woods ahead of time, and it just brought it to me!"

Hei Xia Zi looked confused.

Leng Zhiruo opened her mouth: "You..."

"Well, I knew in advance that there was a plan in the woods, and I also knew it!"

Su Xiaoxiao finished speaking in one breath and asked, "How did you run into this group of people?"

Leng Zhiruo said, "I just came out of the study and saw two people sneaking around on the street, so I followed them quietly. Later, I saw them catching a little beggar on the street, so I went over to stop them, but they caught me as well."

Su Xiaoxiao said: "You deliberately went deep into the wolf's den, didn't you? I don't know whether to say you are lucky or unlucky."

Leng Zhiruo looked at Su Xiaoxiao in confusion.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the four unconscious assassins on the ground: "They are not ordinary robbers, they are forces from Qianshan Island in the East China Sea."

Leng Zhiruo shook her head: "I have never heard of this island."

Su Xiaoxiao said, "I just heard not long ago that there are many powerful underworld organizations on the island. The island owner is ambitious and wants to control the royal families of various countries. According to the information we have so far, their forces have infiltrated Southern Xinjiang, Great Zhou, and Western Jin."

Leng Zhiruo thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty had a stroke a few days ago... Could it be related to them?"

Su Xiaoxiao coughed: "Of course."

Leng Zhiruo asked, "Were you and the two princesses deliberately captured by them as bait?"

Su Xiaoxiao remained calm: "Yes, otherwise, how could they catch me with just a few of them?"

Leng Zhiruo looked at her, then looked at the big tree trunk that had trapped her just now: "Oh."

Su Xiaoxiao quickly changed the subject: "Are you guys okay?"

Leng Zhiruo said: "Thanks to the detoxification pills you gave us, we got out of the miasma forest safely. The two princesses and several children were temporarily placed in a cave."

As early as in the carriage, Su Xiaoxiao gave several people some yellow pills to take, and asked them to carry a few pills with them in case of emergency.

Leng Zhiruo asked again: "Who shot the arrow just now?"

Su Xiaoxiao said, "It's Wei Ting and the others."

The moment Su Xiaoxiao, Princess Hui'an and Princess Jingning were caught and put on the carriage, the Five Tigers rode their golden eagle mounts to the peach forest to inform them of the news.

Based on the information provided by the secret guard, Wei Ting guessed that it was Xiahou Yan who did it.

When Xiahou Yan's men were shouting at the peach forest, Su Xiaoxiao saw the five tigers perched on the branches, and realized that Wei Ting had already brought people to guard the place.

Even though she always bickers with Wei Ting, she can give him unconditional trust at critical moments.

That's why we rushed into the peach forest.

She knew that Wei Ting would be able to cover her.

"What are your plans next?" Leng Zhiruo asked Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, "Let Wei Ting and the others take care of that group of people. We will go meet up with the two princesses."

Leng Zhiruo also understood how powerful that group of people were. She might not be able to help much if she went back, so it would be better for her to stay at home and protect the princess and the children.

Leng Zhiruo looked at the miasma forest in front of her: "Can you go in? You can't take medicine randomly, right?"

"no problem!"

Su Xiaoxiao took out a gas mask and put it on like a magic trick.

Leng Zhiruo: "...I forgot you had this."

"You go in first, I'll come later."

"good."

Su Xiaoxiao readily followed the advice and entered the miasma forest.

Leng Zhiruo came to the valley, checked Wuyou's body, confirmed that she was dead, and then went to kill the other four unconscious assassins.

She did these things without any emotion in her heart.

She stared blankly at her bloody hands.

"Maybe the Leng family is born to be so cold-blooded."

Her father was cold-blooded towards her, and her uncles, aunts, and even grandfather were all cold-blooded to the core.

"Um!"

A happy little cry interrupted Leng Zhiruo's thoughts.

She turned her head and looked.

Then I saw a fat black little kid running towards this side with the sound of Duang-Duang-Duang.

The kid didn't brake in time and bumped into her legs.

Then the little guy was stunned.

The black bear took a deep breath, sighed, walked over with helpless steps, grabbed his rebellious son and dragged him forward.

The little cub refused and used his two paws to scratch the black bear.

The black bear got annoyed by being nudged, so he let go and slapped the little cub on the head.

The kid fought back, but was slapped several more times.

The little cub held his head in grievance.

Leng Zhiruo came over and picked up the little cub.

The little cub immediately raised its paws to protest to its mother.

Hei Xiazi ignored this rebellious son and followed Leng Zhiruo into the miasma forest. - On the other side, after several rounds of arrow rain, the scene returned to peace.

The hostage disappeared, and the people who went to capture the hostage have not come out yet.

It looks like it's a bad situation.

Xiahou Yan was a little angry.

Although he didn't care about the life and death of the hostages, his plan was ruined so easily.

This feeling is not good.

"Didn't you say there was no army?" Xiahou Yan asked Qingyan.

Qing Yan said hurriedly: "I followed here last night and found no trace of the army."

There was no army in the initial plan, but after learning that Xiahou Yan had taken hostages, Wei Ting immediately asked the Five Tigers to find Su Cheng and dispatched a team of archers.

But rescuing the hostages is only the first step.

The next step was to force Xiahou Yan into the peach forest.

Xiahou Yan is not stupid.

The other party wanted him to go in, but he refused to go in.

After a long stalemate, Xiahou Yan gradually lost his patience: "Come out if you have the guts. If not, I'll leave."

He didn't believe that the other party would spend so much effort just to watch him leave.

Wei Ting said calmly: "I'm afraid you can't leave."

Xiahou Yan frowned.

Suddenly, Elder Feng's voice came from the carriage behind him: "There are cavalry!"

Su Cheng led the Qin family's 3,000 cavalry and came here majestically! Not all of the Qin family's troops went north, so there had to be a wave of them left in the capital, otherwise how could they intimidate Emperor Jingxuan? No matter how powerful the masters were, they were no match for the army. Everyone knew this.

But Xiahou Yan was not panicked.

The guy just spoke and exposed his position.

Catch the leader first.

Just catch him!

Xiahou Yan looked at the carriage behind him and pleaded, "Master Feng!"

The curtain of the carriage suddenly exploded, and a gray figure suddenly flashed out, with an unstoppable murderous aura, and suddenly rushed towards Wei Ting! In the peach forest, Wei Ting, Wei Qing, and Gui Bu all felt a tremor from their souls.

Is this the master from the City Lord’s Mansion?

What a terrible enemy!

Gui Bu's face changed drastically: "Xiao Qi, get out of the way!"
