Chapter 317 Escape
As a martial artist, after the carriage traveled for a distance, he also noticed something was wrong around him.
It was quiet, absolutely quiet. Not even a bird was chirping.
He stopped and looked around with sharp eyes.
A gust of wind blew by, and some changes seemed to have taken place around.
Hu Zi suddenly took two steps back, and a dart flashing green light just passed by his cheek.
In an instant, four or five men in black appeared in front of him. "Are you Gu Yuchuan?"
Hu Zi's eyes narrowed. The number of people is wrong!
The lady clearly said there were more than ten people, but now there are only five people stopping him. Where are the others?
He made a beautiful sword flower, picked up the dirt on the ground and threw it at the opponent. He then ran quickly in the direction they were going.
The others must be chasing the young lady's carriage. He must arrive in time to stop them!
"Chase!"
The five men in black shook off the dirt and, seeing that Hu Zi had disappeared, they hurriedly chased after him.
Gu Yuchuan drove the carriage as fast as he could towards the county town. Gu Jiayue sat in the carriage, feeling like she was about to be shaken apart. The food she had eaten had already reached her throat when she left the county town. But she gritted her teeth and endured it silently.
This is a critical moment, and not causing trouble for anyone is the greatest help.
"Whoa!" Gu Yuchuan suddenly pulled the carriage to a stop. Gu Jiayue was caught off guard and almost rushed out of the carriage, but luckily Gu Yuchuan caught her.
"Hide in the carriage. If you get a chance, find a way to escape."
Before Gu Jiayue could ask, Gu Yuchuan said this and jumped off the carriage.
Gu Jiayue looked closely and found that there were five men in black with their faces covered standing in front of the carriage.
"I'm Gu Yuchuan, the person you're looking for. Let the irrelevant people go!"
The men in black exchanged glances before charging forward with their knives drawn. "Kill them all, leave no one alive!"
Gu Yuchuan had also experienced countless assassinations in his previous life. Although he had guards around him, there were always some situations where the guards were not effective. So he also learned some family kung fu.
After his rebirth, he practiced secretly every day, but the time was short, and it only served to strengthen his body. It wasn't very powerful, just a little more agile.
But no matter how skillful you are, you can't compare to a professional killer.
The two sides had only been in contact for a few breaths, but many bloody holes had already appeared on Gu Yuchuan's body.
Gu Yuchuan was already injured and lying on the ground, unable to stand up. Five men in black rushed towards him quickly, holding long swords and knives.
He looked at these people with wide eyes. Even if he was going to die here today, he would remember these people who had harmed him.
"ah!"
Suddenly, a burst of white powder scattered in the air, some of which fell into the eyes of the man in black. The man in black, caught off guard, covered his eyes and screamed.
But the one who suffered the most was Gu Yuchuan. He didn't know where the powder came from, and the wounds on his body caused him to grimace in pain. He almost fainted.
These powders are naturally the salt that Gu Jiayue exchanged from the system mall.
It all happened so fast that she didn't have time to study what was in the mall, so she quickly bought a bag of coarse salt and scattered it out.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Gu Jiayue jumped off the carriage and held Gu Yuchuan in her arms.
She wanted to pick up Gu Yuchuan.
But the difference in their body sizes was too great. Gu Yuchuan was tall and strong, so how could a little girl like her possibly do it?
This delay allowed the men in black to come to their senses.
This time no one stayed behind and the action was taken even faster.
"Be careful!" Gu Yuchuan raised his hand and wanted to hug Gu Jiayue in his arms, but he couldn't do it because his body was covered with wounds.
Ding~
At the critical moment, a sword flashing with cold light was placed across Gu Jiayue's head, stopping the five men in black.
"Nightblade?"
Gu Yuchuan recognized the expressionless man.
It was the man who saved them in the Miao village during the Chinese New Year.
Ye Ren glanced at Gu Yuchuan out of the corner of his eye, and the disgust in his eyes was almost overflowing.
This tall and strong man could barely protect his own sister! What a loser!
In the blink of an eye, there was only coldness in his eyes as he looked at the five men in black.
If you dare to hurt Mr. Gu, you will die here.
Ye Ren was indeed one of the best secret guards around Jiang Luli. The five men in black were beaten back in just a few moves by him, and some even began to suffer serious injuries.
Just then, Hu Zi arrived, followed by five other men in black.
The scene became even more chaotic for a moment.
They were fighting, and Gu Jiayue secretly grabbed Gu Yuchuan's collar and dragged him into the woods behind the carriage.
Gu Yuchuan, who was about to faint due to serious injuries, was strangled by the collar. His eyes were wide open and his tongue was hanging out.
"Jia...Jia Yue..." Let go, I'm dying!
Gu Jiayue, who was working hard, didn't hear it.
It was the system that first noticed something was wrong with Gu Yuchuan. [Host, let go! Your second brother is about to die!]
Gu Jiayue was so frightened that she loosened her collar and went forward to check. "Second brother, what's wrong with you?"
Gu Yuchuan, who was free, breathed heavily.
Looking at the red marks on Gu Yuchuan's neck, Gu Jiayue felt very guilty.
Because I was too nervous, my IQ plummeted.
The system was still making sarcastic remarks. [Host, this trick is quite good. It can not only deal with the Child of Luck, but also avoid suspicion. It's brilliant, really brilliant!]
…
Enough!
She really wants to save people!
Gu Yuchuan finally caught his breath. "Help me up."
"Oh oh oh."
This time, with Gu Yuchuan's cooperation, although Gu Jiayue had to exert a lot of effort, she still managed to help the man up.
He struggled to lie on the carriage. "Push me!"
"Okay." Gu Jiayue pushed Gu Yuchuan's butt with both hands, using all her strength to push him up.
Both of them were breathing heavily.
“Come up!”
Gu Jiayue was very obedient and climbed up using both her hands and feet.
Seeing that Gu Jiayue had come up, Gu Yuchuan held the reins tightly. "Go!"
The horse broke into a run and disappeared in a few breaths.
The men in black wanted to chase after them, but were stopped by Ye Ren and Hu Zi, and could not move an inch.
The person on duty at the city gate today happened to be Chen Ah Da. He had delivered letters to Zheng Qing and Gu Jiayue in Taohua Village several times, so he knew the Gu family.
Seeing Gu Yuchuan rushing towards him with a carriage covered in blood, he was so scared that he rushed over. "Oh, what happened to you, young master?"
Gu Yuchuan could no longer speak. He was hanging on by one breath. Now that he saw an acquaintance, he fainted as soon as the breath was gone.
Fortunately, Gu Jiayue caught it.
She hugged Gu Yuchuan and said to Chen Ah Da anxiously, "Hurry, there are evil people hurting people on the official road, and my guards are still fighting with them. Go and save them!"
This is a big deal, and Chen Ahda was also panicked for a moment.
"I'll take you to the infirmary first and then arrange for someone to go."
Gu Jiayue was also very anxious. "Don't worry about us, go save my guards first!"
On the way, Gu Jiayue had already bought some hemostatic pills from the system for Gu Yuchuan to take, so he was not in any trouble now.
The ones in critical situation are Ye Ren and Hu Zi.
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away!" Chen Ah Da pointed at a yamen runner. "Go tell the master that something serious has happened and ask him to send reinforcements. All of you, follow me!"
