Ye Chutang was startled and blinked gently. There seemed to be a faint light flowing in his clear and black eyes.
Immediately, she responded softly.
"Excuse me, Prince."
Shen Yanchuan protected the person behind him and swung his sword at the same time.
He moved extremely quickly, leaving only the afterimage of the sword and the sound of ping-pong. Several darts were knocked to the ground.
However, Wulan Mountain is lush and green with dense forests, making it most suitable for Tibetans.
They are at a disadvantage because they are in the open while the other party is in the dark.
Suddenly! A cold light flashed!
Ye Chutang turned his eyes slightly and saw a long black arrow coming at him quickly!
It was glowing a faint blue, and was obviously highly poisonous!
Ye Chutang narrowed his eyes slightly - today's scene was indeed aimed at Chen Yanchuan.
Xiao Chengxuan seemed to have noticed it as well, and looked over here anxiously. He tried several times to break through the siege and come over to provide support.
However, the situation was critical, and he was only protected by one guard, so he could only watch.
Yun Cheng came, but his martial arts skills were not as good as Lian Zhou's, so he had a hard time dealing with the situation.
clang!
Shen Yanchuan cut the arrow into two pieces with a sword, and it fell to the ground.
Xiao Chengxuan turned his head and shouted at the guards: "What are you still standing there for! Send a signal! Call for support!"
The guard hurriedly took out a bamboo tube, grabbed the cotton thread at the end and pulled it hard.
Whoosh—bang!
A firework exploded above the woods.
Ye Chutang only took a glance and then looked away.
Those people hiding in secret also noticed this sudden signal. They knew that Xiao Chengxuan and others had begun to summon people. Time was running out, so they instantly intensified their offensive!
While Chen Yanchuan was dealing with arrows and darts coming from all directions, he was protecting Ye Chutang as they headed down the mountain.
This place is halfway up the mountain, and except for the pavilion, it is all lush tall trees.
Only by leaving here as soon as possible can we have a chance of escaping safely.
laugh--!
A dart barely brushed past Shen Yanchuan's face.
Xiao Chengxuan looked over here and saw that Chen Yanchuan's eyebrows were slightly frowned and his movements were temporarily slowed down.
Shen Yanchuan had been injured some time ago and had managed to survive. He had been recuperating after returning to Beijing, but it seemed that his body had not fully recovered yet.
He was badly injured and physically exhausted, and his reaction speed was significantly slower than before.
Xiao Chengxuan's eyes flickered, and he shouted loudly: "Prince! Hold on! Our people will be here soon!"
This sentence was simply a death warrant, and sharp arrows came pouring in!
Ye Chutang frowned slightly and asked in a low voice: "Prince, how are you?"
Shen Yanchuan shook his head and cut off another arrow feather at his feet.
He protected Ye Chutang and retreated.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew from the side!
Chen Yanchuan turned his wrist and was about to raise his sword!
However, for some reason, he frowned and raised his hand to cover his chest - that was the place where he was injured before.
In just a split second, the dart flew straight towards Shen Yanchuan's chest!
A dark light flashed across Chen Yanchuan's eyes, and he slightly misstepped and was about to turn away.
The dart was about to hit his chest.
Sudden!
A pulling force came from the cuffs, and the next moment, a slender and graceful figure stood in front of him.
Chen Yanchuan's eyes suddenly focused!
Almost at the same time, veins appeared on his wrist and he swung his sword down!
However, the time was too short and it was too late. Half of the dart still pierced Ye Chutang's left shoulder!
Chen Yanchuan's expression changed suddenly!
"Chu Tang!"
Perhaps the impact was too strong, Ye Chutang lost his balance and staggered down.
Shen Yanchuan immediately stepped forward, put his arm around her waist, and pulled her into his arms.
However, at this moment, he suddenly felt his feet were empty.
not good!
Chen Yanchuan's heart skipped a beat - there was only bushes here, and there was an extremely steep slope below!
Without any hesitation, he hugged Ye Chutang tightly in his arms.
A huge feeling of weightlessness came over them, and the two figures fell down and disappeared!
Yun Cheng exclaimed in shock: "Master!"
When Xiao Chengxuan heard this, he subconsciously turned his head and looked over, and then he found that Chen Yanchuan was gone!
Missing with him was Ye Chutang!
Xiao Chengxuan was completely stunned.
In just a blink of an eye, how, how...
He walked quickly forward to Yun Cheng's side and looked down with him.
Nothing could be seen except the luxuriant branches and foliage which were obviously pressed down.
——Those two people clearly fell from here!
The guard who followed closely beside him couldn't help but ask: "Your Highness, what should we do next?"
Xiao Chengxuan's eyebrows jumped and he looked back.
Ever since Shen Yanchuan fell, those people hiding in the dark seemed to have disappeared.
A rustling sound could be faintly heard coming from the forest.
"try to find!"
Xiao Chengxuan clenched his fists.
"No matter what, we must find the son of Marquis Dingbei! Also, close the mountain immediately! Not a single assassin will be allowed to escape today!"
…
"What did you say!?"
Princess Qinyang stood up suddenly, with a look of shock on her face.
"My brother was assassinated!?"
The young monk who came to report the news clasped his hands together, also with a worried look on his face: "Don't worry, Princess, those assassins did not succeed, but, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Miss Ye Er fell off the cliff. Now His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi is sending more people to search, you——"
Princess Qinyang couldn't believe her ears.
"Who are you talking about?"
The little monk was also a little confused: "I heard from His Highness the Crown Prince's entourage that it seems to be this title..."
Princess Qinyang slapped her forehead heavily.
"I should have called her to join me!"
She originally planned to bring Ye Chutang along, but when she heard Ye Chutang asking about Chen Yanchuan, she thought there was a chance, so she deliberately didn't mention it again. Today she came by herself, thinking that if the two of them were destined to meet, they might really meet.
Unexpectedly, we did meet, but such an accident happened again!
Princess Qinyang was extremely anxious and rushed out immediately.
"Where did they fall from? I will go and find them myself!"
The young monk didn't dare to stop her and could only follow her and persuade her earnestly.
"Princess, the mountain is steep and very dangerous. I'm afraid you can't do it by yourself. Now the people of His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi and the people of the Crown Prince have arrived and have dispersed to search. I believe they will find it in no time. You, you should -"
Princess Qinyang wouldn't listen at all and kept walking.
However, as soon as she reached the door, she realized something was wrong and looked up.
Not long ago, the sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly, but now it was covered with dark clouds and the sky was gloomy.
A breeze blew through the forest, carrying with it a damp, sultry smell of dust and moisture.
The little monk earnestly advised: "Princess, it's going to rain heavily!"
It would be even more dangerous if it rained in the mountains!
Princess Qinyang's expression became more determined.
"Go get an umbrella!"
The more this is the case, the more she can't just wait here!
She must find the person as soon as possible!
…
Crash——!
The mountain wind was blowing hard, the sky was dark and cloudy, and heavy rain was pouring down!
