But he didn't know that He Man didn't come back because Yao Ji ordered him to go back first.
Ever since she first met Su Yeli in Qingshan Town, Yao Ji knew that he was very skilled in martial arts and wanted to win over him and let him work for her. At that time, she discovered that Su Yeli seemed to be a good drinker, so she planned step by step.
Although the carriage that would attract assassins was sold to him at a high price, he later also gave him the healing medicine Panacea, just because he didn't want the man to resent him.
Leaving his wine gourd behind was naturally a deep meaning. Yao Ji had always observed the details. Although the wine gourd looked ordinary, judging from the friction of the pot body, it must have been used for a long time, but the ribbon tied to the gourd was newly replaced.
It went up, so Yao Ji guessed that the wine gourd must be special to Su Yeli.
So he left the wine gourd in the hope that Su Yeli would find him after he rescued the man. Even if he didn't come, it wouldn't be difficult to find him with the intelligence system Yao Ji had established over the years.
This time, he deliberately used wine as bait to let him escort her back and sent He Man away in advance. Firstly, it confirmed the previous suspicion that Su Yeli loved wine. Secondly, just as Su Yeli thought,
I want to drag him into the water.
No matter it is the past life or the present, whether it is the underworld witch Situ Yao or the Daqing princess Yao Ji, she has never been a good person!
After resting for a night, the two of them rode out of the city on fast horses, stopping along the way until they found a creek and stopped for a short rest at noon.
After going to the stream to fill the water, the two of them washed their faces and left the horses to drink water and graze as they pleased. The two of them found an open space to sit down one after another, took out the dry food they brought with them and ate with the water.
Got up.
Suddenly, the grass blades on the side moved, and then there were two sounds piercing the air. When I looked again, two black shadows flew out of the grass blades and shot at the two horses by the stream.
"No!" Su Yeli yelled, swept the ground with his right toe, picked up two stones and kicked them out one after another. Then he grabbed Yao Ji beside him, held her belt with one hand and jumped out with her.
The moment the two people left, two more black shadows shot in the direction where the two people were. If Su Yeli hadn't dodged, the arrow would have hit the two people's hearts.
Looking at the iron arrow stuck on the ground, Yao Ji's face turned cold, and then she quickly disappeared. Su Yeli had been paying attention to the grass and did not notice this scene. He only noticed Yao Ji's body the moment he held her in his arms.
He stiffened for a moment, then returned to normal.
Su Yeli didn't know the details of Yao Ji, but he thought that because of her noble status, no one would dare to treat her like this, so that moment was just an accident, but he didn't notice the murderous intent and alertness flashing in Yao Ji's eyes at that moment.
He quickly led Yao Ji to where the horses were. The two stones hit the arrows just now, sending the two arrows flying away. They deviated from the target and did not hit the horses. However, even so, the two horses were injured.
Frightened, coupled with the suddenly obvious murderous aura in the air, the two horses screamed in panic and kicked their hooves continuously, trying to break free from the reins tied to the tree.
Su Yeli wanted to keep the horse safe. It was still a long way from the next city. Without the horse, their next journey would be very difficult.
But the other party had obviously seen his intention a long time ago and had no intention of letting him get his wish.
Eight iron arrows were shot at the same time, two of which were shot at the horses, the remaining four were shot at Yao Ji, and the last two were shot at Su Yeli.
Su Yeli held Yao Ji in one hand and pulled out the soft sword from his waist with the other hand. With a flick of his wrist, he poured in the real energy. The soft sword, which was originally as thin as a cicada's wings, immediately stretched for a few feet. The sword's body was blue and glowing.
Dark light.
As the body turned, the force then swung a sword. The sword energy was swept away and spread out in a fan shape. All six arrows shot were broken into two pieces. Two of the broken arrows were shot towards the horses, stopping them.
The remaining two arrows shot before were all buried in the grass.
Then the grass shook violently, and eight green shadows sprang out, and another green shadow headed towards the horses.
Su Yeli had no time to stop them because they were already surrounded by these eight people.
Looking at the person in front of him, Su Yeli's expression darkened. If it were just an ordinary person, that would be fine. After all, Yao Ji, as a princess, was a treasure, and he had agreed to escort her. If she was harmed in the slightest, Emperor Qing would definitely
Won't let him go!
Thinking of this, Su Yeli regretted his previous decision. If he had killed those people at that time, even if assassins would still come after him, they would not come so quickly...
Although the remaining road would be more difficult without the horse, Su Yeli was more afraid to let Yao Ji suffer any harm than the two horses, so he made up his mind to protect Yao Ji. But if that happened, the two horses
The horse will definitely not be able to protect it.
Sensing that Su Yeli's arm tightened around her waist, Yao Ji's eyes flashed, and finally the corner of her mouth curled up slightly, revealing a bloodthirsty smile.
Stretching out a hand to cover Su Yeli's hand holding her, and then taking advantage of his stunned moment, Yao Ji dexterously escaped from Su Yeli's arms, and then dodged away at an incredible speed.
He flew towards the two horses.
Su Yeli was stunned at first. He didn't expect that Yao Ji could actually know kung fu, and she didn't look weak at all! Thinking that he had fallen into the opponent's trick again and was plotted by Yao Ji, Su Yeli felt unhappy for a while, and then
I planned to leave.
Judging from Yao Ji's current martial arts skills, how could she be forced into a desperate situation by several assassins that day! Presumably the opponent knew that she would look for him at that time, so he deliberately put on such a show for herself!
Since the other party is so powerful, there must be no need for him to protect him all the way!
Su Yeli thought angrily, feeling unhappy at being deceived. However, he was unwilling to intervene, but those assassins did not want to let him go!
Over there, Yao Ji rescued two horses and was already fighting with four other assassins. The remaining eight people were still pestering Su Yeli.
Deftly avoiding the sword thrust from the side, the soft sword in Su Yeli's hand swiped across the right wrists of the two men in green holding the sword from below in a cunning gesture, and then sheathed the sword and stabbed the chest of the sneak attack behind him.
Su Yeli's eyes looked at Yao Ji, wanting to know what her strength was.
Gradually, Su Yeli frowned slightly. Yao Ji held a short and delicate dagger in her right hand, and her moves were simple and neat. All her moves were fatal, attacking the enemy's body vitals everywhere.
It's just that this kind of move is not like that of an ordinary person in the martial arts world, but rather like...a killer, and a very powerful killer who is good at close combat!
Gradually, the assassins saw that something was wrong, and they saw that Su Yeli had not killed her, so they tried to move to Yao Ji. After all, their target was Yao Ji, and getting rid of her was the key.
