Chapter 274: The Rat Who Only Dares to Hide Behind the Scenes
"His Royal Highness Prince Jin fell off a cliff!"
"It is my fault for not protecting me well. I deserve death!"
When Ge Xubai heard this, his expression suddenly changed.
"Qiang Di, you thief, how dare you kill His Royal Highness Prince Jin? Give me your life!"
He was brave to begin with, and now he was enraged. The sword in his hand was so fast that it left an afterimage. The Qiangdi soldiers had no fighting power at all under his command.
Ge Xubai was so blood-thirsty that he didn't notice that not far behind him, someone aimed at his back and shot an arrow.
He felt a sharp sound of breaking air from behind him and instinctively became alert, but in front of him there was another Qiang flute player who raised his knife and slashed at him, and for a moment he was attacked from both front and back.
"Bang!"
There was a sound of sharp blades clashing, and Ye Hanyi held Wu Nian and knocked the sharp arrow away.
Chu Yian, who was in the dark, quickly put away his bow and arrow, hid his body, and felt annoyed.
If he missed the first strike, it would be difficult for him to succeed again.
It was so close to success just now, what a pity.
What he didn't expect was that Ye Hanyi also came to Xiping.
When Ge Xubai saw Ye Hanyi, he was also surprised and subconsciously lowered his voice, "You didn't leave?"
Ye Hanyi lowered his voice a bit, "Everything went smoothly over there, so I turned back. That sharp arrow just now wasn't shot by the Qiangdi people. Someone wanted to take your life."
A fierce look flashed in Ge Xubai's eyes.
Who would attack me at a time like this?
A person flashed through Ge Xubai's mind.
Ye Hanyi reminded, "I saved you once, don't forget."
"I will never forget your life-saving grace."
The enemy attacked again, and they didn't have time to say anything more. They quickly put all their efforts into killing the enemy.
Ye Hanyi was entangled by a Qiang flute man. He thought he could deal with him easily like before, but he didn't expect that he was extremely brave. Ye Hanyi's fingers were numb from the man's punch. Before he could recover, the man launched another fierce attack, heading straight for his vital point.
Ge Xubai's broadsword blocked in front of her, blocking the fatal blow for her.
She just saved him, and now he saved her, they are even.
The opponent could not gain any advantage against Ge Xubai, but Ge Xubai could not kill him easily either. The fight between the two sides was very fierce.
Just at this moment, another black arrow shot from the darkness.
The man still refused to give up and wanted to take Ge Xubai's life.
Ge Xubai was entangled by the Qiang flute man and had no time to spare. Ye Hanyi hurriedly took action to block the hidden arrow.
But then, several hidden arrows were fired one after another, and the attack was even faster than before.
Ye Hanyi was not paying attention for a moment and got a scratch on her shoulder. The injury was not serious, so she didn't care at all.
But soon, she realized something was wrong.
She began to feel weak and achy all over, and could hardly lift the Wu Nian in her hand.
"Ge Xubai, be careful of the hidden arrows, they are poisonous!"
Ge Xubai caught a glimpse of her strange behavior and his eyes darkened.
We can't fight any longer.
He deliberately exposed a flaw to the opponent, and when the opponent thought he was about to succeed, he quickly and decisively counterattacked and killed him.
The big knife chopped down, and the head fell to the ground. The Qiang flute player's eyes opened wide, as if he didn't understand where he had lost.
At this time, Ye Hanyi could no longer lift the sword. She tried to use her internal energy, but failed.
Ge Xubai apologized, put his arm around Ye Hanyi's waist, jumped off the ground, and headed towards a certain direction in the forest.
He blew a whistle, and his men immediately understood. They stopped fighting and ran away when they saw the chance.
During this period of time, he has become very familiar with this area and knows which route is the safest.
Ye Hanyi was led by him to the west, and the pursuers behind him were relentless, but fortunately, they were protected by Ge Xubai's men, and they soon shook off the pursuers - but there was one person who was still like a fly and could not be shaken off.
Another sharp arrow came from behind. Ge Xubai held Ye Hanyi in one hand and grabbed the air with the other hand, catching the arrow with his bare hands.
His eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, fixed precisely on a certain place, and he threw the arrow in his hand without hesitation.
There was a strange movement and a muffled groan coming from the shadows.
Ge Xubai sneered, "You are just a rat who dares to hide behind the scenes and do evil things."
Because Qiang Di was facing a powerful enemy and Ye Hanyi's condition was unclear, Ge Xubai did not bother with her any further and took her away quickly.
Chu Yian leaned against a big tree, gritted his teeth and pulled out the sharp arrow from his shoulder, then took out a bottle of medicine from his arms and swallowed it quickly.
The arrow is poisonous. If he doesn't take the antidote in time, he will be at the mercy of others.
He didn't expect that he could be injured by Ge Xubai even when hiding in the dark.
If it weren't for the powerful enemy at hand, Ge Xubai would not have wanted to fight, for he was afraid that he would have died at the hands of the enemy.
With the pursuers coming from behind, Chu Yian didn't dare to stay any longer and could only escape with his injured arm.
At first, Ye Hanyi just felt sore and weak all over, but later, her mind began to become a little unclear.
She instinctively hugged Ge Xubai, treating him as her only life-saving piece of wood.
Feeling the arms around his waist, Ge Xubai's body froze slightly for a moment, but soon returned to normal.
The most urgent thing is to leave this place first and then treat her injuries.
Zhang Lie and his group fled from Duanyun Mountain in a panic, with half of their men killed.
Gu Qishan summoned him immediately and asked for details.
Zhang Lie's face was filled with shame. "I was incompetent and failed to save His Highness Prince Jin. He unfortunately fell off a cliff."
When Gu Qishan heard this, his heart trembled violently, and his burly figure almost fell.
Gu Zhaolin quickly stepped forward to support him, "Godfather, don't get excited. Perhaps there's something else going on."
He then turned to Zhang Lie and asked, "Commander Zhang, did you see Prince Jin fall off the cliff with your own eyes?"
Zhang Lie shook his head. "I was fighting with the Qiangdi people at the time and didn't see it myself, but Lord Chu saw it with his own eyes."
Gu Zhaolin immediately said, "Call him over."
Chu Yian was summoned to the general's camp and was carried there.
His arm was pierced by Ge Xubai's arrow, which was poisonous. Even if he took the antidote, the effect would not be so fast. When the Qiang Di pursuers caught up with him, he was defeated and injured by the enemy, with several knife wounds on his body.
If the reinforcements had not arrived in time, he would have died there.
When Gu Zhaolin saw his miserable appearance, a hint of contempt flashed in his eyes.
He was the most seriously injured and was truly a waste.
Gu Qishan asked about the situation at that time, and Chu Yian said in a sad tone, "His Royal Highness Prince Jin was seriously injured and was carried down the mountain by his guards. We also tried our best to protect him, but the Qiang Di thieves were so fierce that His Royal Highness Prince Jin's guards panicked and fled to the edge of a cliff. The Qiang Di thieves shot arrows from the dark, and in order to avoid the attack, His Royal Highness Prince Jin accidentally fell off the cliff..."
Gu Qishan's breathing became heavier. "Did you see clearly? Is it really His Royal Highness Prince Jin?"
Chu Yian didn't see clearly. It was dark and almost dawn, and Xiao Yanci was lying on the guard's back, so he had no chance to see his face.
But that figure was very similar to Xiao Yanci, it couldn't be someone else.
If it were someone else, the guards would not have fought so hard to protect him. Even Ge Xubai tried his best to attract fire.
Therefore, Chu Yian said with a firm tone, "I have seen clearly that it is His Royal Highness Prince Jin."
