In the northern suburbs of the capital, a melee ensued, causing sand and rocks to fly everywhere, and Feng Yuheng was almost about to curse.
"Damn it! What on earth did these people eat to grow up?" She angrily shouted after knocking down an enemy with her saber, "How come they are so strong?"
It's no wonder Feng Yuheng complained. Duanmu Qing's team had a large number of people, but the most important thing was that these people had very strong fighting capabilities, and their physical fitness and sword skills had reached the most perfect combination, so that she would have to fight for at least dozens of rounds to knock one of them down.
The saber in her hand was the same one that had broken Zong Sui Tie Jing at the palace banquet on the first day of the new year. With such a weapon in hand, she was able to slow down the enemy's powerful momentum. But it was only slowing down the enemy. The enemy had more people and they had fewer people. Xuan Tianhua and Ban Zou could easily fight ten people alone. She had a steel weapon and could shoot a few anesthetic shots from time to time, so she could also stand alone. But Wang Chuan, who was good at Qinggong, was at a disadvantage. Huang Quan's kung fu was not as good as Xuan Tianhua and Ban Zou. The two of them gradually became exhausted. In the end, Huang Quan was even knocked to the ground by the opponent's knife.
Xuan Tianhua pulled her at the right time and brought her to his side, thus saving Huang Quan's life.
Feng Yuheng knew that this was not a solution. She fought while retreating back to Xuan Tianhua, and then she heard Xuan Tianhua say, "Hengheng, find a way to escape and find a place to hide!"
She was anxious - "Only cowards hide!"
Xuan Tianhua gritted his teeth in anger: "Find a place to hide, Ming'er will definitely send someone to pick you up."
Feng Yuheng also gritted her teeth, "Then let's wait for reinforcements together. I don't believe that a mere Duanmu Qing can keep all of us here?" As she spoke, she moved closer to Huang Quan, snatched the weapon from her hand, threw it away without thinking, and then stuffed her own saber into her hand: "Use this!"
Huang Quan wanted to refuse, but the current situation did not allow her to think too much. Enemies came one after another and she was overwhelmed.
With the steel knife in hand, she no longer had to dodge the swords and knives. She could directly hit the opponent's weapons head-on, cutting through iron like mud. Not only did she split an enemy's long sword in half, she also used the momentum to chop straight at the opponent's forehead. Before the man could recover from the shock of the broken weapon, his vision was obscured by a fog and he was silent.
Feng Yuheng had no weapons, but she summoned a lot of anesthetic needles from the space, as well as a needle gun, and simply stood there and raised her hands to shoot. She could see that these enemies were simply too fierce and strong, and each of them was as strong as an ox. If she continued to fight in a conventional way with her small body, she would be exhausted to death. Fortunately, the four people around her were protecting her, and the enemy could not get close to her, giving her enough range to ensure.
She stood there and raised her hands continuously, and people kept falling down around her. Xuan Tianhua, who was worried at first when he saw her give the weapon to Huang Quan, was relieved now. He let out a long breath and came to her side and said, "These people were brought by Duanmu Qing from the Northern Territory, but he definitely didn't bring so many when he came. Most of them were hidden in the northern suburbs of the capital early in the morning. People in the Northern Territory have been eating raw meat since childhood, and mostly beef. Their bodies are much stronger and more powerful than those in the Central Plains. So we feel very tired when we fight against them, and this is the most fundamental reason why Dashun has been slow to send troops to Qianzhou."
Feng Yuheng had anticipated this, especially after today's fight, she felt that if she wanted to move Qian Zhou, she had to wait until the new steel weapon was made. She thought to herself that after this matter was resolved, she had to return to the camp as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, her subordinate became a little anxious. She even took out four tranquilizer guns, holding two in each hand and shooting at the same time. Xuan Tianhua saw her impatience and quickly advised her: "Keep calm, don't panic."
She nodded, but said, "I just pray that Xuan Tianming will send someone to support us, and he must not come. Duanmu Qing planned to ambush us, I don't believe that there will be peace in the capital. Right now, defending the capital and the palace is the top priority. Only by defending them can our battle be meaningful!"
Several more enemies were knocked down by her tranquilizer gun, and gradually, the other side became a little timid. After all, they were not afraid of real swords and guns. They had more people and could tire Feng Yuheng to death. But no one expected that Feng Yuheng actually had such a powerful hidden weapon in his hand, which could not be seen or avoided, and would kill people immediately if touched.
In fact, they didn't know that it was anesthesia, and they thought the people were dead, so they madly stepped on the bodies of their companions and charged forward again. This resulted in more than half of the anesthetized people being trampled to death by their own people.
Duanmu Qing was not stupid. He saw that this would not work, so he simply shouted, "Retreat!"
When all the people from the Northern Territory heard the order, they immediately gave up their attacks and retreated in unison without any hesitation.
Then, Duanmu Qing shouted again: "Archers, get ready!"
Suddenly, in the jungle surrounding the battlefield, so many archers appeared out of nowhere, stood up, put arrows on bows, pulled the strings with their hands, and aimed the arrows at the five of them.
Wang Chuan stood right next to Ban Zou, her face turned pale, and she subconsciously stood in front of Feng Yuheng to block her. But when she stood in front, she found that there were archers behind her, on both sides. She couldn't block them from all directions, so she pulled Huang Quan and Ban Zou together to block them, but there was still one corner missing.
Xuan Tianhua glanced at the stubborn girl standing in the middle, and without saying anything, he automatically filled the empty seat. The four of them surrounded Feng Yuheng, and Ban Zou said, "Even if we are shot like hedgehogs, we will die first."
It would be a lie to say that she was not moved, but Feng Yuheng had never been a sentimental person. With the enemy at the doorstep, she had no intention of giving inspirational speeches. The fearlessness in the face of danger that she had developed in the army allowed her to calmly hold her head high.
She was not afraid at all. At most, she would let the four people hold hands, and she would hold one of them, and they would hide in the space together. Although they might appear in front of the enemy when they came out, it didn't matter. They didn't have to come out. There was food, drink and bed in the space. They could eat and use as much as they wanted. She could just fight with this group of people from the North to see who could outlast them.
Feng Yuheng had always believed in Xuan Tianming. No matter how chaotic the city was, he had his own way to solve it. The few of them outside the city had only one goal, which was to save their lives.
She turned around and looked straight at Duanmu Qing. Hiding in the space was her last choice. Except for Xuan Tianming and Yao Xian, she would not reveal the secret of that space to anyone unless she had no choice.
At this time, Xuan Tianhua's low voice sounded in her ears, with only one sentence: "To capture a thief, first capture the king." That's what he said, but he couldn't move, because if he moved, it would affect those archers and hurt Feng Yuheng. But Xuan Tianhua remembered a strange thing. When Feng Yuheng visited the Prince Xiang's mansion at night, he followed her. This girl suddenly disappeared behind him and then suddenly appeared again. Although he didn't mention that incident to anyone, it was always a mystery to him. So, he asked Feng Yuheng with a glimmer of hope: "Can you do it?"
Feng Yuheng narrowed his eyes, raised his lips and revealed a devilish smile that was very similar to Xuan Tianming's, and said softly: "Okay."
As soon as the words came out, the person suddenly disappeared without any signs or process, as if she had never been there in the first place. However, Xuan Tianhua could still faintly sense her remaining breath, and then he looked in the direction of Duanmu Qing.
It was dark outside the city, and no one was lighting torches. The four of them had surrounded Feng Yuheng tightly, and Feng Yuheng's disappearance was silent, and the enemy didn't notice it at all.
Ban Zou Huangquan Wangchuan's scalps were tingling when they saw this, but fortunately, they had followed Feng Yuheng for a long time, so they were more or less used to the strange things she did. Although they were curious at the moment, they could not overcome the worry in their hearts.
Several people followed Xuan Tianhua to look in Duanmu Qing's direction. During this moment of distraction, it seemed that a figure in plain clothes suddenly appeared in the straight line leading to Duanmu Qing, but disappeared in an instant, just like a ghost.
Because of the Feng family's funeral, Feng Yuheng had been wearing a white dress. The pure white material looked very abrupt on such a night. The sudden appearance just now was seen by many people, and some even exclaimed uncertainly - "What is that?"
But when people looked more carefully, they could not see any shadow at all.
Those who saw it felt a little frightened, but those who didn’t see it didn’t know what they were shouting about. For a moment, the enemy was in chaos.
But this chaos was quickly suppressed by Duanmu Qing. He shouted loudly, "Silence!" and all the noises stopped again.
A general-looking man beside him said to him, "Deputy Governor, there seemed to be a white shadow flashing in front of us just now. It was a human figure."
Duanmu Qing frowned and looked over, but he couldn't see any clues at all. He didn't notice the white shadow just now. He was looking at his archers, calculating whether there were any blind spots. Because he had heard that the Ji'an County Master was not only good at martial arts, but also had exquisite archery skills. People with exquisite archery skills can easily see the flaws in the enemy's arrow formation, and can also use the slight flaws to successfully escape. What's more, the opponent now is not only Feng Yuheng, but also the seventh prince Xuan Tianhua who also makes him afraid. Including the secret guard, they are not easy to deal with.
Because of this distraction, he didn't notice the white shadow. But since so many people said they saw it, he couldn't help but take it to heart, so he changed his gesture again, and the archers lowered their bows a little more, and it seemed that they were about to shoot.
At this moment, there was a sudden light in front of his eyes. The originally dark night suddenly turned completely white, and that white covered his eyes, suddenly and without any sign.
He subconsciously wanted to reach out to grab it, but before he raised his hand, he felt a chill at the base of his neck, and a pair of cold small hands pinched him like iron pliers.
Duanmu Qing was completely stunned. Almost as a conditioned reflex, with extreme fear and confusion, he squeezed out a word from his throat - "Ghost!"
