It was night, and in the middle of the night, Jicheng, which had finally returned to peace, broke out in commotion again.
The soldiers patrolling the city received an "accidental" and "uncertain" tip and went to inspect a remote house. Unexpectedly, they discovered a wanted criminal who had been searched for many days without success - Snow Girl.
Needless to say what happened next. Yuki-onna, who had decent martial arts skills, was naturally not something that dozens of patrols could deal with. She easily broke through the siege and escaped, but she failed to kill everyone.
Several of the soldiers who were discovered escaped by luck and reported to their superiors as quickly as possible.
Then, late at night in this cold winter, the city defense army and the imperial army were alerted one after another, and each sent out their own men to pursue her. Unfortunately, due to the speed limit of message transmission, they were unable to stop the snow girl in time before she could escape from the city.
Climbed the city wall and escaped.
There is nothing that can be done about it. Even the city wall of the capital can only be built a few feet long. It is not short if it is said to be short. It is unrealistic for ordinary Jianghu people to climb over flat ground with just one step, but with the help of some tools
, you can come and go as you please.
It's winter now, and the temperature at night is enough to freeze. The soldiers on guard are almost freezing to death. It's impossible to cover all aspects and hold all positions.
Of course, the pursuers could only follow the footprints left by Xue Nu's "hurried" escape. In this kind of pursuit, the Yan soldiers had the advantage, because they were on horseback, and their speed was much faster than that of Xue Nu. They galloped all the way up.
It won't take long to catch up with them.
In the darkness, there are two people watching everything happen, one is Gu Xun and the other is Jing Ke.
The Six-Fingered Black Man didn't come. He needed to show his face in the open to appease King Yan Xi. But from the outside world, Jing Ke had already gone to the organ city of the Mo family headquarters. He was not in Jidu, so he was suitable to be responsible for secretly looking after Xue Nu.<
/p>
After the snow girl jumped off the cliff and was rescued by the machine Suzaku, he would go directly to the machine city along with this flight.
Gu Xun just came to join in the fun, and he had nothing to do anyway, but Yan Lingji, who loves to join in the fun, rarely came. The reason is naturally that she has had enough fun these days.
In the past few days, she has been stirring up trouble outside almost every day, causing Jicheng to panic. Many people were attracted by her beauty, and then... nothing happened.
Anyone who is really capable of rectifying the mischievous Yan Lingji knows her identity, and because of the existence of Gu Xun, they can only turn a blind eye to it, including Yan Wang Xi, who is suffering anyway.
They are all just minions, no really important people.
"Those miscellaneous soldiers who were acting just now, are they your people? Won't they leave any traces when they look back?" Gu Xun stood on the flying vehicle, the Suzaku, and looked down at everything that happened on the ground, looking for Jing Ke casually.
Chat.
The weather tonight is not good. Dark clouds have completely covered the moon. Even a few stars can't be seen. Without the help of lamps and other light sources, it can almost be said that you can't see. That is to say, Gu Xun and Jing Ke can only see if they are strong.
Qing Qing Everything that happened, like the Mohist disciple driving the Suzaku machine next to him, he could hardly see anything, and his attention was entirely focused on stabilizing the Suzaku machine.
"No." Although Gu Xun didn't look at him, Jing Ke still shook his head, "Those are ordinary soldiers and will not involve the Mo family."
"In this scene, Juzi made careful arrangements. The soldiers who discovered the person had nothing to do with the Mo family, the informant who gave the information was not from the Mo family, and the source from which the informant obtained this information had nothing to do with the Mo family. Even if King Yan was ruthless
No matter how hard you get to the bottom of it, it will be difficult to trace the Mohist family."
Jing Ke said very clearly that it is difficult to find King Yan, but it is not impossible to find it. In other words, it is only a matter of time, but it is enough to do this step. As long as we avoid this storm, everyone will understand in the future.
Not announced anymore.
"Well..." Gu Xun also heard the meaning, nodded slightly, and continued, "It seems that the Snow Girl is quite lucky. Although she has been overtaken, they are ordinary soldiers and cannot cause much harm to her.
Threat."
Jing Ke heard the words and agreed, "Yes, but the timing is good. The reaction speed of the masters enshrined in King Yan's palace is far inferior to that of these soldiers. If they also catch up, Miss Snow Girl will be in danger."
After saying that, Jing Ke couldn't help but shudder, and quickly picked up the wine bottle and took a deep drink.
On this cold day, it was still night. Flying in the sky, the feeling was almost the same as the cold icy rain hitting your face randomly. Even with Jing Ke's strength, it was a bit overwhelming. The man in charge of driving
My brother was even wrapped in three layers of cotton clothes, and he was like a ball. Even so, he was almost stunned by the cold. After all, his two hands had to be completely exposed to operate the control lever.
Gu Xun glanced sideways at these two unlucky children, thinking that even a rough man couldn't be treated like a fool. It was a rare kindness to a man. The blazing Feihong Zhenqi spread out from his body, covering these two people.
A small piece of heaven and earth.
In an instant, Jing Ke and the driver stopped shivering. The biting cold immediately subsided and was replaced by warm heating.
Although they didn't say it, both of them understood that it was Gu Xun who did it. Jing Ke immediately said to Gu Xun with some envy:
"Mr. Gu, your hands are so comfortable."
He specializes in swordsmanship, his internal strength is mediocre, and the Mohist method of mind is peaceful and has no flashy uses. He is not suitable for resisting the heat in the summer and the cold in the winter. To sum it up, he can be summed up in two words - bitter! Gu Xun waved his hand and didn't answer the question. You can't say who gave you internal skills?
In theory, this kind of thing does not require any specific attributes of Qi. As long as you have sufficient internal strength, you can forcefully open a Qi shield, which can isolate heat and cold to a considerable extent. Of course, if it is Qi with the corresponding attribute,
That would be much simpler, like Yan Lingji.
It's a pity that most of the martial arts people in the world of Qin Dynasty had poor internal skills and exquisite moves. So far, Gu Xun has found that except for the Yin Yang family's internal skills, there are no exceptions.
"How far is it from the predetermined cliff?" Gu Xun continued to ask, not mentioning the matter of pressing Zhenqi.
Jing Ke looked down, carefully identified the direction, and immediately replied, "We will be there soon, just through this forest."
In the blink of an eye, all the people from the sky and the world passed through the woods. The few people on the Suzaku, seeing that the snow girl was still safe and sound, could slow down and stay behind. The driver immediately accelerated and flapped his wings, flying through the air.
All the people below arrived at the cliff not far away first. Taking advantage of the night, they silently circled down and lurked under the cliff.
The snow girl was too lazy to act, so she resisted for a while, and then immediately pretended that there was no way forward, no way out, and life was hopeless, and jumped off the cliff.
The soldier who was chasing her took a short look at the edge of the cliff and found that he could only see darkness. Then he quickly changed direction and took a detour to the bottom of the cliff.
