Chapter 76: Military Deception
The man came riding a black horse, with a strong build and a full beard. I think he was the Kutu that the two villains mentioned before.
Yuan Ziyu and his horse hid quietly in the shadows of the woods. Only when the man had walked far away did they hurriedly come out of the shadows and head down the mountain.
Yuan Ziyu still felt the stabbing pain in his head, and forced himself to stay awake and let the horse run down the mountain.
But not long after, Yuan Ziyu heard the faint sound of horse hooves behind her. She knew that it must be Nakutu who had discovered something was wrong and was chasing after her!
"Hurry up, go faster!" Yuan Ziyu gave the horse some spring water, then squeezed the horse's belly with his calves and said softly.
The horse received the command and ran faster. Yuan Ziyu only felt the whistling of wind in her ears, but the bumps on the horse's back made her headache seem more severe. However, Yuan Ziyu did not dare to stop. In her current state, she was no match for Nakutu.
The horse galloped all the way and soon reached the foot of the mountain, but the sound of horse hooves behind it was getting closer.
"Stop!" A loud shout came from behind.
Yuan Ziyu did not respond, but just urged the horse to run faster.
"I told you to stop!" From the sound of his voice, it seemed as if the distance between them was a little farther, and the man seemed a little exasperated.
Yuan Ziyu gritted his teeth and lowered his body, hoping to keep a distance from that Kutu!
Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking air from behind, and the horse let out a long neigh. Then Yuan Ziyu felt the horse's body shorten and tilt to the right.
Yuan Ziyu was caught off guard and fell to the ground with the horse. He rolled several times before he stabilized his body.
When he looked in the direction of the horse, Yuan Ziyu realized that it was a short arrow that was stuck in the horse's right hind leg. The horse was lying on its side on the ground, screaming in pain.
The horse was injured and could not run away. Yuan Ziyu had to endure the headache and stood up, holding a dagger in one hand and a whip in the other, squinting his eyes and watching Kutu who was getting closer and closer.
"They actually got out!" Kutu rode up close, reined in his horse, and looked down at Yuan Ziyu: "I just want to ask you, what have you done with Qianhu and Ah Liudun?"
"Why should I tell you!" Yuan Ziyu took a few steps back, putting some distance between himself and Kutu.
"Woman!" Kutu's eyes, as big as an ox, widened. "I'm not as sympathetic to women as Ah Liudun. I advise you to speak honestly. Otherwise, the hostages used in the exchange won't need to be complete. Do you understand?"
"You are so brave!" Yuan Ziyou was nervous, but he was still as confident as ever: "In my Dali Dynasty, you are threatening the people of my Dali Dynasty."
"Hmph!" Kutu lifted one leg and jumped off his horse. "So what? If you're smart, just come back with me and tell me the whereabouts of Qianhu and A Liudun. Otherwise, I'll make you regret coming to this world."
"You're dreaming!" Yuan Ziyu snorted coldly.
"Oh!" Kutu narrowed his eyes. "Since you don't want to accept my toast, then I won't be polite. I've always heard that Miss Yuan Er is a heroine. Today I want to fight with you and see what kind of heroines your Dali Dynasty is like."
After saying this, Kutu let out a bloodthirsty smile and said, "I heard that women in your Dali Dynasty attach great importance to reputation. If your reputation is ruined today, will you regret not listening to me?"
"Shameless!" Yuan Ziyu gritted his teeth and tightly grasped the dagger and whip in his hands.
Now she has no way out and can only take a gamble!
Nakutu didn't seem to be in a hurry to deal with Yuan Ziyu. He drove his horse aside, leisurely put the bow and arrow in his hand on his back, and drew a long sword from his waist.
"Woman!" Kutu sneered, "Today I want you to know that women can only be men's accessories!"
After saying that, Kutu ran towards Yuan Ziyu with a long sword in his hand!
Yuan Ziyu endured the headache, waving the whip in his hand, picking up stones from the ground and throwing them at Kutu.
Kutu brandished his long sword with impenetrable force: "Woman, if this is all you have, you'd better surrender as soon as possible."
"That depends on whether you have the ability to do so!" Yuan Ziyu snorted coldly, and while retreating, he waved the whip and kept throwing stones at Kutu.
Gradually, almost all the big rocks around Yuan Ziyu were thrown away by Yuan Ziyu, and all he threw over were small stones.
Seeing this, Kutu laughed out loud and stopped what he was doing. To him, those pebbles were like tickles.
"Woman, you've thrown all the stones!" Kutu snorted and laughed, "If you have the guts, keep throwing. I'll see where you can find those stones."
As he spoke, he walked towards Yuan Ziyu.
Yuan Ziyu seemed to be furious. He rolled up a handful of sand with a whip and threw it towards Kutu!
Kutu didn't take it seriously at all. He just laughed and waved his hands in front of him casually: "It seems that the heroine of the Dali Dynasty is also quite good at acting like a spoiled child!"
"Hmph!" Yuan Ziyu didn't answer, but just threw a few handfuls of sand at Kutu.
Kutu didn't get angry. He just waved his hand casually, grinning, and slowly walked towards Yuan Ziyu. "Woman, this is all you can do. It seems that the so-called heroines of the Dali Dynasty are just empty names. Besides throwing stones and sand, what else can you do? I advise you to surrender obediently. I will..."
Suddenly, Kutu was stunned for a moment, and then his body shook.
He suddenly stabbed the ground with his long sword, trying to steady himself, and gritted his teeth and said, "You damn girl, what are you talking about!"
Seeing Kutu's expression, Yuan Ziyou knew the drug had taken effect, so he cautiously kept his distance from Kutu and sneered, "Guess!"
"You damn girl, how dare you trick me!" Kutu felt his eyes begin to blur and he felt dizzy. Yuan Ziyu's figure suddenly changed from one to two, and then to four...
"Hmph, as the saying goes, all is fair in war. How could a reckless man like you understand this?" Yuan Ziyu said coldly, "You look down on women. Today, I'll let you experience the consequences of looking down on women."
"You..." Kutu tried hard to stay awake: "You damn girl, what on earth did you tell me?"
"Ha!" Yuan Ziyu sneered, "You'll have to ask your good companions about this. To be honest, I don't even know what this medicine is!"
"You...you..." Kutu could no longer hold on, his eyes went dark, and the last thing he saw was Yuan Ziyu standing there, looking at him with contempt!
With a thud, Kutu fell to the ground and passed out. The last thought in his head was: Women are really too cunning.
