Chapter 172 Assassination
Sure enough, as Prince Ping had just finished speaking, a group of masked men in black came running out of the woods in the distance, each holding a long sword.
Qin Yuzhuo eagerly grabbed Su Qianqian and said, "Hide in the car quickly. Driver, take Master Su and go quickly!"
The coachman was so frightened that his legs went limp and he crawled onto the carriage. Qin Yuzhuo pushed Su Qianqian in as well.
Su Qianqian leaned on the car door and directed Prince Ping: "Daliang envoy, go and fight them quickly, these people are definitely coming for you."
Prince Ping crossed his arms and said, "Let's see who they are targeting. It won't be too late to take action then."
Qin Yuzhuo also got on the carriage at this time, but just stood at the door, and told the coachman to go faster with a serious face. She no longer had the cute and naive look she had when she was telling interesting stories in the carriage.
The Qin family was truly born to fight.
Even though the driver tried his best to drive the horse, the horse seemed to be unwell and was unwilling to move forward.
"Hey, Brother Ma, where did your madness just now go? Run!" Su Qianqian was so anxious that she looked at the situation outside the car window while scolding Ma.
The horse remained unmoved.
[Tongzi, we are going to say goodbye here forever today. That group of people came over here and ignored Prince Ping. 】
Su Qianqian said a fact with sadness in her heart.
Indeed, the group of men in black only chased after the carriage without even looking at Prince Ping and his subordinates.
[My dear, don't be afraid. You have solved those difficulties in the past. Today is just one of them...]
The sound of the system still seems very far away.
"Don't be afraid, Third Sister-in-law. I'll get off the car to stop them. I'll try to stop them for a while. You can get in the car and leave first. Third Brother and the others will definitely catch up after you when they hear the news."
Those two girls must be chasing after him, and if they can't catch up, they will return home to report.
No matter how afraid of death Su Qianqian was, she couldn't abandon a little girl and run away by herself. The key point was that she might not be able to escape because the horse was not strong enough.
"Driver, go back quickly to that Daliang man!"
The coachman did not dare to disobey at this time. He pulled the reins to turn the carriage around and rushed towards Prince Ping again.
The men in black were almost approaching, and were a little confused when they saw the carriage turn and stop, but they continued to chase after them after a moment.
Su Qianqian pulled Qin Yuzhuo in, not caring whether she would be exposed or not. She took out the simple bulletproof vests she had prepared from the space and put one on each of them.
Qin Yuzhuo's face turned red when she put it on: Why are you wearing small clothes outside?
There was no time to explain. At this time, the man in black came to the carriage and the carriage returned to the side of Prince Ping: Fortunately, the horse ran slowly.
"Hurry up and meet the enemy. Kill one of these bandits and you'll get a reward of 1,000 taels of silver. Capture them alive and you'll get a reward of 3,000 taels of silver!"
Su Qianqian shouted at Prince Ping and his subordinates.
Man in Black: Are we so expensive? How much to surrender?
Prince Ping looked at Su Qianqian, who was wearing a strange piece of clothing that looked a bit like soft armor, and was shouting by the car door. Suddenly, he felt a joy he had never felt before.
"Okay, this is what you said, you can't go back on your word."
Prince Ping smiled, drew out his sword, and went to meet the man in black.
Naturally, his subordinates were unwilling to fall behind. They wanted to protect the prince and also wanted to earn the reward: one thousand taels for killing one person, that's fifteen people, if they could capture three or four more... he couldn't calculate it.
Su Qianqian was not idle either. Prince Ping bought time to fight the enemy. She took out the needles soaked in anesthetic from the space and handed a few to Qin Yuzhuo.
"This is soaked in paralyzing herbs. You must hit it with one strike. Since there are relatively few of them, if they can't resist, stab them when they get close to the carriage."
Su Qianqian taught Qin Yuzhuo how to use it. Her own hand was seriously injured, and she was afraid that she could not handle it alone, so she asked the coachman to hide as well to avoid losing his life in vain.
At this time, a fierce battle was going on outside the carriage. The people of Daliang were indeed a fighting nation. Prince Ping was extremely brave, and his subordinates were also very fierce. They had already killed five men in black.
However, these people had no intention of retreating, and their target was the people in the carriage. They tried again and again to bypass Prince Ping and pounce on the carriage.
"Cut him, yes... hey, over there, over there... well done!"
Su Qianqian no longer cared about being afraid. She leaned against the car window, waving her two injured hands, and commanded Prince Ping and his subordinates to stop the men in black.
Qin Yuzhuo relaxed inexplicably. Looking at Su Qianqian's little head shaking here and there, busy and happy, she actually wanted to laugh.
Prince Ping had just stabbed a man in black in the back. He was about to swing his knife at Su Qianqian, but when he looked up, he saw Su Qianqian's starry eyes narrowed at him and she raised her thumb and made a gesture.
Prince Ping felt like something hit his heart. The praise in Su Qianqian's eyes made him even more proud than the praise given to him by the Emperor of Daliang.
Unconsciously, the corners of Prince Ping's lips curled up.
"Hey, back there, back there, what are you standing there for? Go get to work!"
Su Qianqian was so anxious that she shouted to Prince Ping that if he died, he would not be able to survive until Qin Hanzhang rescued him with his soft armor, because Qin Hanzhang had gone to the palace and the news would not reach him so quickly.
Prince Ping smiled brightly, stabbed backwards with his backhand, and fought with the man in black again.
Su Qianqian didn't think much of it, after all, she didn't have the patriotism of the people of Da Qi. But Qin Yuzhuo felt mixed emotions and actually cheered for the people of Daliang who killed their own people.
Although there were only six or seven men in black left, they were getting closer and closer to the carriage. Moreover, these few who remained were obviously very skilled in martial arts. Prince Ping and his subordinates gradually found it difficult to deal with them, and one of his subordinates even suffered a shoulder injury.
[My lady, let Peak come out to block them!] 】The system’s voice also sounded a little nervous.
[No, the peak is too small, it’s useless, and you’ll get hurt! 】Su Qianqian answered subconsciously.
"Woo woo..." Peak has appeared in the carriage.
"Why did you come out? Go back quickly!" Su Qianqian saw Dianfeng scolding it, and his eyes were staring outside, ready to prick it with a needle at any time.
Peak: You asked me to come out...
At this time, a man in black broke through the defense line of Prince Ping's subordinates and stabbed Su Qianqian at the car window with a long knife!
Qin Yuzhuo leaned out of the car door and stabbed the black-clothed man's arm with the needle in his hand. At this time, Dian Feng also jumped out of the car and bit the black-clothed man's ankle.
Prince Ping who came to the rescue: Am I redundant...
Su Qianqian looked at the long knife stabbing towards her and was so scared that she quickly stepped back and sat down on the floor of the carriage. Just as the knife was inserted into the carriage, Qin Yuzhuo's needle pierced the arm of the man in black.
Dian Feng also bit the black-clothed man’s ankle, but quickly let go and ran away, “About…”, and vomited.
The man in black only felt a pain in his ankle and heard the sound of wind in his ears. He turned around to block Prince Ping's sword, but after just one move, his arm became numb and he felt dizzy.
Although Prince Ping was surprised by the reaction of the man in black, he thought of this rare opportunity and chopped the man in black on the neck with his palm. The man in black fell to the ground and fainted completely.
"Swish..." One of them whistled, and the men in black suddenly pounced on the unconscious person regardless of their lives!
