Chapter 718: Ambushed!
Everyone...had different expressions.
My heart skipped a beat. This is a very bad omen!
But you can’t say it like that, you have to say something auspicious.
The old minister of the Ministry of War said, "Your Majesty, this inkstone was used by the previous emperor. It's quite old, so it's normal for it to be broken. I'll ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to replace it for you."
"Yes, I heard the late emperor mention it before. This inkstone is about to break, but I've been using it so much that I'm reluctant to replace it. Now the new emperor is diligent and uses it every day, so it's only natural that it's cracked."
…
This is meant to advise the new emperor not to think too much.
Dabao smiled faintly, "It's okay, just change it."
The eunuch hurried forward to clean up the mess. The inkstone was broken and there was ink inside, which had all flowed out.
The maps on the desk were all over the place.
A good map of Da'an Kingdom was destroyed because of an inkstone.
The eunuch not only replaced the inkstone for the new emperor, but also replaced it with a new map.
Dabao looked at the empty new map without any notes, and the feeling of uneasiness in his heart became even stronger.
However, he didn't show it on his face.
Still, his tone was calm, his words were neither fast nor slow, and his hand was as steady as a rock while he wrote.
All the old ministers in the room breathed a sigh of relief from the bottom of their hearts.
These old guys are about to be buried, but they are not as calm as a child.
Thinking of this, the new emperor's uneasy heart calmed down again.
Da'an Country, everything will be fine.
Of course!
***
It only takes about half an hour to fly from Yuecheng to Richeng.
Jiang Lianzhu asked Liao Jiu to close his eyes and rest for a while on Chengfeng's back. She would call him when they arrived.
Chengfeng Jifeng had been flying very fast, but suddenly slowed down.
Jiang Lianzhu saw clearly that there seemed to be a gray and foggy area in front of her.
What's going on? Is it biogas?
The biogas belt is quite large, so if you want to go around it, you will have to go a long way.
Jiang Lianzhu released her consciousness to investigate the situation below.
It turned out that there was a big canyon below, and the thick methane miasma was blown up from the bottom of the canyon.
At this time, the wind was quite strong, blowing the methane and miasma all over the air.
But the problem shouldn't be big.
"Jifeng, fly a little higher and avoid the areas with the thickest methane. Hold your breath as you fly over. It should only take a few seconds to pass by. Be careful."
Jiang Lianzhu warned.
The two golden eagles understood what he meant.
He chose a place where the methane seemed relatively thin and prepared to fly over.
At this moment, two crossbow arrows shot towards him with great precision! !
Fast and accurate!! And premeditated!
Chengfeng reacted more quickly and whistled, narrowly avoiding the attack, but a large tuft of hair fell off his tail feathers.
Jifeng was flying above Chengfeng, which was a relatively safe position. Chengfeng helped it block the most threatening crossbow arrow. The remaining one was swept aside by Chengfeng's wings, but it also touched a few hairs on Jifeng's wings.
Ji Feng was frightened and screamed, and Jiang Lianzhu was almost shaken off its back.
Fortunately, she held on to Jifeng's fur tightly and kept soothing it with her mind.
On Chengfeng's side, Liao Jiu was also awakened.
"What's going on, wife?"
"We've been ambushed! The golden eagle has been poisoned."
At this time, another strong mountain wind blew, and the swamp wind and miasma were flying around. Jiang Lianzhu felt dizzy and wanted to vomit when she smelled it, not to mention the two frightened and breathless golden eagles.
"Swift wind, ride the wind, fly farther, fly away from here first..."
The two golden eagles' eyes could no longer move and their wings were powerless.
In this state, there is no way to carry anyone anymore.
Jiang Lianzhu made a prompt decision, "Liao Jiu, let's jump off the golden eagle and let Chengfeng Jifeng go first!"
They have to leave here first.
She and Liao Jiu both have a certain resistance to poisons. They can withstand the poison of marsh gas and miasma for a while, but the golden eagle cannot.
I don’t know what’s going on down there. If the golden eagle falls down, it will definitely be in great danger.
They can also act according to circumstances.
"good!"
The two of them jumped quickly, and after the weight on the backs of the two golden eagles was relieved, under the urging of their master, the two eagles finally flew out of the methane belt, and rushed into the distance with their shaky bodies.
Besides, Jiang Lianzhu and the other person were forced to jump. In mid-air, they both gathered their internal strength to steady their falling bodies so as not to fall flat on their faces.
As a result, when it was almost reaching the ground, only about ten meters away, suddenly a powerful force erupted from the woods below.
"Hahahahaha! I've been waiting for you for a long time! You've finally been taken down! Hahaha, prepare to die!!"
It’s Gu Yu’s voice!
All the explosive power of the eighth-level strong man was released at this moment.
Liao Jiu and his wife were in mid-air again, with no support at all, and no escape! !
Jiang Lianzhu didn't even have time to take anything out of the armory.
The surprise attack by the powerful eighth realm masters is no joke.
If she had known this earlier, she would have asked the golden eagle to take some time to fly around here instead of flying directly from here.
Or was she too impatient? Too careless!
I thought it was broad daylight and everything would be fine in just a few breaths.
When the golden eagle carried them flying before, they had encountered this kind of natural miasma belt before, and they dealt with it in the same way, just holding their breath and getting through it.
Unexpectedly, we were ambushed here.
First, the crossbowman shot accurately at the necessary places. If it was a golden eagle that had not eaten the mother Gu and had not advanced before, it would definitely have been hit by the arrow.
Although he was not hit by the arrow, he was frightened and his breathing became disordered, so he was poisoned by the miasma.
It has lost the ability to carry people into flight.
He was also certain that they would prioritize the golden eagle's self-preservation, and that they would jump down and wait for the two of them here.
Before falling, Gu Yu concealed his breath tightly!
Jiang Lianzhu used her consciousness to capture the crossbowman, but did not notice Gu Yu.
This happened in a flash.
At this moment, Jiang Lianzhu and Liao Jiu looked at each other, and their strong sense of tacit understanding came into play again.
I can't be killed by a punch from an eighth-level expert like this.
The situation is too passive.
It was already difficult enough to maintain the balance of the body while jumping down from such a high altitude. Now, it was impossible for him to receive this punch that was full of the strength of an eighth-level expert.
At the critical moment, Liao Jiu and Jiang Lianzhu held hands, flipped sideways in the air, and jumped into the unfathomable canyon next to them, which was filled with endless poisonous miasma.
But even so, Gu Yu's fist swept across both of them.
The two of them swung a long way across the canyon, blood spurting out, and they looked seriously injured.
Finally, it disappeared.
When Gu Yu rushed over, Liao Jiu and his wife had disappeared.
The cliff slope is as famous as it is said to be. It is unfathomable. In addition to the miasma, there are also gusts of cold wind.
Several of his men, all highly skilled in martial arts, hurried over and looked down at the cliff. "Master, it's unfathomable down there, and there's poisonous gas everywhere. They were hit by your punches and are seriously injured. They must be dead."
