"Master, please run up the mountain, we will carry this first!"
An Yi drew the long sword from his waist and fought with the guards while loudly reminding Lei Tingjun.
Lei Tingjun took advantage of the gap created by An Yi's long sword, stepped on the horse, used his lightness skills to quickly fly away from the encirclement of the Guards, and ran quickly towards the mountain.
"Chase him. We can't let the Fifth Prince leave here alive!" Cheng Junnian shouted with a cold face.
Originally he was just guessing, but when he saw the Fifth Prince going up the mountain without looking back, he felt that this guess was completely confirmed.
So, we must not fail this time!
In this way, Cheng Junnian led the Royal Guards to chase Lei Tingjun, and An Yi and the others followed closely behind, trying to protect Lei Tingjun.
The group of people chasing each other soon arrived at the place where Xu Jinhuan had set up a trap.
"Why is it foggy here?"
"Master Cheng, have we encountered the legendary ghost wall?"
"Sir, we just walked through this place!"
Lei Tingjun looked at the thick fog around him with a gloomy face. Listening to the footsteps getting closer, he couldn't help but tighten his grip on the hilt of the sword.
Sure enough, as the sound got closer, the guards led by Cheng Junnian appeared.
The two sides were clearly divided and on the verge of a fight. The atmosphere was so tense that it seemed as if a melee could break out at any time.
"Master Cheng, there is a thick fog now. No one can get out. Why don't we find a way out together and fight to the death after we leave here? What do you think?"
After thinking for a moment, Lei Tingjun took the lead in proposing cooperation.
But Cheng Junnian didn't buy it at all.
"Fifth Prince, you have made a very clever calculation. Although we are currently facing a heavy fog, we have the advantage in numbers.
As long as we get rid of you, we will have enough time to slowly find a way out later!"
After Cheng Junnian finished speaking, he swung his sword and slashed at Lei Tingjun who was not far away.
The battle is about to break out.
An Yi quickly blocked Cheng Junnian's knife and fought back.
An Yi looked at the fog that could not distinguish between humans and animals two feet away and shouted loudly: "Master, you go first, I will stop them, saving your life is the most important thing!"
Lei Tingjun looked at An Yi deeply, then ran into the white fog without looking back.
As the fog grew thicker, it became impossible to see who the other person was within one meter, which made it extremely difficult for Cheng Junnian and his team to catch up.
Therefore, the two groups endured several hours in the white fog, but neither could kill the other.
"Hello, master, we have been here before." An Yi carried Lei Tingjun, who was injured on his back, and struggled to identify the directions around him.
Lei Tingjun looked at Bai Wu with a pale face. Is he really going to die here?
No, he hasn’t rescued Youyou yet, he can’t die!
Perhaps Lei Tingjun's strong will "touched" the heavens, and a roar suddenly came from the top of the mountain.
Then the earth shook violently.
The people trapped in the formation thought it was an earthquake, and they all squatted on the ground, not daring to move.
"Oh my God, I haven't married yet, please stop shaking!"
"The Imperial Observatory didn't report to the emperor that there would be an earthquake in the near future. If I had known, I would have given my private money to my wife."
"Oh, I hope the Buddha will bless us. If we can stop soon, I will donate more money to the temple's donation box!"
But the shaking of the earth did not stop because of everyone's prayers, it even shook more frequently.
“Wow…”
“Shua…”
The people squatting on the ground looked at the white fog in the distance in confusion.
"What's that sound?"
"It sounded like water to me."
"No, I think it was the sound of something moving. Could it be a wild animal?"
Just as everyone was talking, the sound came from far away and became louder and louder.
"Master Cheng, I think something is not right..."
A guard wanted to discuss something with Cheng Junnian, but when Cheng Junnian saw the fog gradually dissipating around him, he no longer cared about that.
He had only one goal in his mind, and that was to capture the fifth prince Lei Tingjun!
Cheng Junnian ignored the changes in the surrounding environment and searched around vigorously. He actually found the hiding place of Lei Tingjun and An Yi.
"Fifth Prince, give me your life!"
Just as Cheng Junnian drew out his long sword and swung it towards Lei Tingjun, the strange sound also reached the vicinity of the trap.
"What's this?"
"Help."
"This mountain, did it slide down?"
Most of the guards were swept away by the sand and rocks. After a long time, the surging sand and rocks just stopped, and those people were no longer alive.
The remaining people who managed to survive were also buried under the rubble. If no one rescued them, they would die.
The only anomalies present were the three people who fainted not far from the trapped formation.
They are Lei Tingjun, An Yi, and Cheng Junnian who is closest to them...
Xu Jinhuan walked out of the room after sensing the unusual movement. When the mountain in the distance stopped sliding, she asked Xie Datou to comfort the exiled people, and she went to the trap alone.
So, when she arrived, what she saw were three people entangled together with torn clothes.
If they were not in the disaster-stricken area at that time, people might have mistakenly thought that these three people had done something disgraceful here.
Xu Jinhuan looked up at the sky and shrugged his shoulders in a rather rogue manner, as if telling heaven what was going on.
Hey, look, I didn't make you faint, you can't take revenge on me, lululu~
Then, she walked to Lei Tingjun with a bright smile, took out a sledgehammer as tall as a person from the space, raised the sledgehammer, and hammered Lei Tingjun's calf hard.
"Bang!"
After one blow of the hammer, Lei Tingjun's calf was instantly stained red with blood.
Xu Jinhuan did not stop and continued to swing the hammer in his hand.
"Bang, bang, bang."
After several blows of hammering, Lei Tingjun's calf was already covered in blood, and the white broken bones had broken through the flesh and exposed.
[Host, how did you do it? The hero is so badly injured now, but the heavens didn't punish him?! ]
System Xiao Wang asked excitedly.
Xu Jinhuan smiled mysteriously and explained in his heart: "The last time I was punished by the Heavenly Dao, I discovered that although the Heavenly Dao is supreme, it also has its limitations.
From what I have observed, it can only punish the hero or heroine when they are injured and faint, or when their lives are threatened. At other times, it can only be a bystander. "
System Xiao Wang exclaimed with admiration.
[So that's how it is! Host, under your careful planning, the Way of Heaven has become a tool to help you complete your mission. It's really amazing! ]
Xu Jinhuan silently accepted the system's compliments, and then shifted his attention back to the three people on the ground.
"Looking at this man's clothes, he doesn't look like Lei Tingjun's secret guard. Moreover, Lei Tingjun has knife wounds of varying degrees..."
Xu Jinhuan muttered to herself as she analyzed the relationship between the three people present, and soon she made a new move.
