Qi Tao was a military general and had been on many battlefields of life and death. His many years of military service gave him excellent reflexes. When the dagger with a cold light stabbed straight at him, he leaned back subconsciously without even thinking.
Can barely avoid Bai Qi singer's sharp knife.
Bai Qige was not discouraged when her surprise attack failed to hit. With a turn of her wrist, the dagger changed from holding it to holding it upside down, and still stabbed Qi Tao very quickly. Qi Tao people had difficulty moving on horses, and there was no place where they could escape.
It was only the size of a palm, and even though he heard the sound of the dagger piercing the air, he had nowhere to hide. With a pop, the dagger sank deeply into his thigh.
The screams failed to win the help of the ten desperadoes nearby. They had no respect for such a traitor. Instead of helping, they would rather watch the excitement. Anyway, the people who benefited them only said that they had killed Yi Chenjing, the leader of the army, and him.
It was enough to have the prince and concubine disguised as a man, and he did not say that he wanted to protect Qi Tao, who was contacted and arranged through him. With the above thoughts in mind, the desperadoes who came to kill people either smiled or showed no expression on their faces. In short, no one planned to step forward to stop him.
Bai Qige.
It's not that they care about her and want to let Bai Qige go, but they are too confident and believe that Bai Qige has no way to retreat and cannot escape even if we are outnumbered.
The dagger full of blood was pressed against Qi Tao's neck again. The rebel lieutenant, who endured the pain and turned pale, glared at the stern woman in front of him, but his eyes could not hide the fear. The fear of death was higher than anything else. Seeing those people, there seemed to be no obstruction.
Bai Qige felt relieved. She grabbed Qi Tao by his collar and pulled him down and forced him on the horse. His tone was as cold as iron: "Is Yi Chenjing injured? Where is he?"
Qi Tao had already lost a lot of blood, and was accidentally injured again. At this moment, he didn't even have the strength to resist a woman, let alone Bai Qige, who was so powerful. He swallowed hard, and Qi Tao stared at it tremblingly.
With a dagger around his neck, his voice was obviously trembling: "I, I don't know, I just said it casually, but someone really went after him and General Zheng. I don't know what will happen next..."
There are no lies in a matter of life and death, and people like Qi Tao who are greedy for life and afraid of death will not lie with their lives.
Bai Qige glanced at the people behind her from the corner of her eye, and saw that they were all unprepared. She pushed Qi Tao in front of the people, and she quickly got on the horse, tightened her legs on the horse's belly, and neighed, one man and one horse.
In full view of everyone, he ran more than ten feet away in an instant.
When the desperadoes were about to kill her, they dismounted one after another. They had no time to react in a hurry. Bai Qige seized this opportunity and came up with the idea of riding the horse to escape. Whether he had chosen the tall and thin man before or suddenly attacked Qi Tao, it was all a matter of course.
It was to deceive others and cover up his true intention of seizing the horse.
The plan was not in vain. Neither Qi Tao nor the desperadoes expected that Bai Qige would do such a thing. When he came to his senses, cursed and thought of chasing, where was Bai Qige's figure in front of him?
"We can't let her run away. None of us will be fine if that adult pursues him." The leading man spat fiercely, with regret on his face, "If I had known this, it would be better to kill her with a knife! Fortunately, the dirt road is after the rain.
It's soft and can be traced by following the hoof prints. The horse the woman is riding has been running for a long time, and it probably won't last much longer. Get on the horse, and whoever catches her first will get an extra piece of money!"
The desperadoes were not afraid of life or death. All they wanted was money and a way out. The ten men mounted their horses and galloped after them without hesitation. Only Qi Tao was left holding his bleeding thighs and wailing and moaning, praying to the heavens and the earth.
.
Escape from the siege is not the end of the crisis. Bai Qige knows that her equestrian skills are definitely not as good as those who ride on horseback all year round. It won't take long for them to be overtaken. Now she only hopes to enter Lingyun City before they catch up.
, there were troops stationed there, and they did not dare to act rashly.
In fact, you can hide wherever you want. Bai Qige is so anxious to enter Lingyun City because she has another plan - to clarify the situation, move reinforcements, and find Yi Chenjing no matter what the blue sky is.
He cannot die while she is still alive.
However, Bai Qige underestimated the speed of those people. Less than half an hour into her galloping, there was the approaching chaotic sound of hooves and strange shouts from behind. Those people seemed to regard her as a prey that could not escape.
, while controlling the speed and chasing, while admiring her exhaustion and embarrassment.
Looking up, Lingyun City already had a vague outline in her sight, and the high wall and gate were faintly visible. However, could she still hold on to the city? Will the people behind her allow her to escape?
Gritting her teeth and clamping the horse's belly tightly, Bai Qige clearly felt that the horse's speed was getting slower and slower, and her heart became more and more anxious. If she continued like this, she would be overtaken in a short time, and no one would be careless enough to leave her any chance.
The only thing that could be given to her in her next life was a flash of sword, a pool of blood, a corpse, and a regret.
Compared with the murderous Far Frontier, the imperial palace of Dayao Imperial Capital is much more peaceful. Everyone is eagerly waiting for news of success from the front line, but the Palace of Far Far Away is shrouded in a cloud of darkness.
"How many days has he been gone?" The room is still filled with fragrance, and the man is still dressed in fine clothes. Even the sinister eyes have not changed at all, but there seems to be something missing around him, and it looks very inconsistent at first glance.
.
"Six, seven days, or longer." Mrs. Qi knelt on the ground, with faint blood spilling from the veil on her face. She was so weak that she couldn't even speak clearly. "The army left a few days after the expedition. He has His Highness's
Token, I thought it was His Highness asking him to go out for business again, so I didn’t pay attention..."
The teacup in his hand fell to the ground without mercy, causing fragments to fly across Mrs. Qi's cheek, leaving several shallow wounds shining with blood. Yi Chenxuan was angry and puzzled, and raised his foot to kick Mrs. Qi hard.
On his shoulders, the extremely thin body slumped to the ground, but he didn't feel any pity for it.
"Jinyan, Su Jinyan... If you dare to ruin my good deeds, I will let you die without a burial place!" He looked at the door with a ferocious expression. The courtyard was empty without the beautiful man hanging his head. It was unclear whether it was deserted or boring.
.
It was an important chess piece that he had finally bound to his side by using despicable means. If even Su Jinyan ran to help Yi Chenjing, then what capital did he have to compete with Yi Chenjing for the throne and the world? He looked down at the medicine bottle in his hand,
Yi Chenxuan narrowed his eyes, his long and narrow eyes were filled with cold light, and there was a cold smile at the corner of his mouth that was bone-chilling.
"How could I forget that even if Jin Yan had the intention to help Yi Chen Jing, I'm afraid he wouldn't survive until that day?" The slender fingers pinched Mrs. Qi's sharp lower jaw, forcing her to raise her head and look into her cold eyes, without any love.
A loving kiss fell on her pale lips. Yi Chenxuan liked to look into her eyes at such a close distance, because he could see fear and surrender, but not disgust, which made him feel that maybe he was still a human being.
"Well..." When she left, Mrs. Qi snorted, and two drops of blood rolled down her lips, which were bitten by him.
Seeing with satisfaction that he had left another wound to others, Yi Chenxuan finally no longer felt angry: "The medicine on Jinyan's body is only enough to last for half a month. If he can't come back within half a month, his life will be worse than death. Qiqi, you know
Well, Jinyan hates me so much that he just doesn’t dare to kill me. If one day he can leave me, he will definitely use the most terrible way to retaliate against me. You are all the same, pretending to be docile and docile.
, In fact, you hate me so much in your heart, don’t you? I like this feeling, I like the feeling that everyone in the world is suffering and I am the only one who is happy! Wait until I sit on the throne..."
Mrs. Qi didn't hear what would happen next. The wild and almost crazy laughter drowned everything, and also her slight fear. Facing the laughter, Mrs. Qi slowly stood up and reached out to hug the big boy who was bent over with laughter.
Prince Yao Wu is as gentle as water.
"Even if everyone in the world betrays you, I am still here."
There are always people who will spend their whole life for a promise, no matter whether the other person is right or wrong, success or failure, life or death, just like Bai Qige's insistence, just for the man she promised to plan the world for.
The horse's body is covered with dense scars. Bai Qige never knew that hemp rope can also be used as a weapon. It does not hurt people, only the horse, but allows people to experience what it means to be frightened and what it means to hang on by a thread. Hope is beautiful, but reality is
But it was cruel. When she was still far away from Lingyun City, the desperadoes had already come up from both sides and surrounded her.
The thin-edged cloud-tipped knife was sharp, and the cold light blocked Bai Qige's path. The leader of the outlaws had a gloomy face, and was still angry that his bold temperament had just been betrayed by others: "I will give you a chance to die comfortably.
It doesn't matter if you don't know what to do and insist on seeing what hell is, anyway, our brothers are not good people, so it doesn't hurt to let you see it."
With a glance, the others gradually narrowed the encirclement in an orderly manner. The weapons in each person's hands were replaced by iron hooks about three feet long. The end was not a solid iron rod but an empty slot with a barb. Bai Qige did not study much on cold weapons.
, but she understands this bizarre design. Once the slot is inserted into the body, it will become a conduit to allow blood to flow out continuously, causing people to bleed to death, which is extremely painful.
Tightening the reins to stop the nearly dead horse, and gently stroking the horse's head twice, Bai Qige took a deep breath and tightened her grip on the dagger.
"Still want to fight to the death?" someone sneered.
"Aren't you dead now?" Bai Qige asked back, her clear eyes showing awe-inspiring perseverance, "But as long as I have the breath, I will never give up."
Such a tenacious and almost paranoid spirit surprised everyone again. The leading man was full of confusion, and he really couldn't understand what the meaningless struggle of the woman in front of him was for. If he had the chance, he really wanted to ask this woman many questions, but unfortunately, then
It's just a hypothetical, but it can't come true.
Ten iron hooks collided with each other and jingled, and the circle shrank to a distance of one foot in front of you. Someone whispered "Have a good journey", as if someone gave a silent order, and the iron hooks were raised and dropped.
The pain that penetrated her flesh did not come, and the low cry of pain did not come from her own mouth. Bai Qige could only see a long whip moving like a dragon, forcing the ten people around him to retreat ten steps away in an instant, and when it was forced to break open,
After a gap, a figure that I don't know whether to call familiar or unfamiliar came into view.
