The vast sky and wild fields meet, the sky is dark and hazy as the storm is about to come, the green grass bent over by the manic wind and sand trembles, the four hooves of the horse step steadily through it, splashing the tender grass juice, indifferent and ruthless. The man riding the horse is dressed in light jade
The colorful brocade attire is luxurious yet fierce. The bluish-white joints of the palms holding the reins are prominent, and you can tell at a glance that you have good skills.
Xiao Baishan has been walking in the army all year round and rarely visits the palace. Even Yi Chenjing was only contacted for the first time during this expedition, not to mention the expressionless and arrogant subordinates of the fifth prince. But this young man has only been seen a few times.
It left a deep impression on him - not only because of the mysterious and rare green eyes, but also the cold and numbness hidden deep in them.
"The general has been ordered to pursue the fugitives. This is the personal order of the general. If there is any conflict with Mr. Su, please stay out of the way." After being slightly surprised, Xiao Baishan quickly calmed down and shouted loudly, quietly protecting Bai Qige and Bai Haoyu behind him.
.
The oncoming Su Jinyan could hear Xiao Baishan's shouting but had no reaction. She still drove her horse slowly, casually took out an arrow from the arrow basket behind her, nocked it, bent her bow to full length, and headed straight towards the three escorts who were actually on the run.
People. Needless to say, this situation has obviously reached the point of incompatibility. Either Su Jinyan killed three people, or he was killed by Xiao Baishan and others.
"In the end, we will try our best to delay the situation. Princess, please take Mr. Bai to Lingyun City as soon as possible." Xiao Baishan said in a low voice.
Bai Qige was worried about Gao Xuan. She knew very well that Xiao Baishan was a dedicated veteran who would never give up on the important task of escorting the two siblings to Lingyun City if they were not desperate. Depending on the situation, the loyal deputy general of the distant army wanted to fight with Su Jinyan.
It's a dead end and the net is broken.
Bai Qige frowned slightly, and the question that had been lingering in her mind for a long time came again. Bai Qige really wanted to know which side Su Jinyan was on.
In the past, Su Jinyan had both kindness and resentment towards her in the palace of Yaoguo. He sometimes transformed into a protector and sometimes a ruthless assassin. As Yi Chenxuan's male favorite and confidant, was he helping her or harming her?
?If it was a gang, he almost killed her with repeated attacks without mercy. If it was a harm, why did he suddenly appear and lend a helping hand to save her from danger when Hongquehara was being chased in the school military field?
?
That man is like a mystery, just like his fascinating green eyes, which cannot be seen through or guessed.
It is useless to think more, only facts can prove everything.
Taking a deep breath, Bai Qige unexpectedly flashed in front of Xiao Baishan, standing upright with her thin body: "What did Yi Chenxuan send you to do? Kill me or Xiao Yu? Or both?"
People with deep inner strength often have excellent hearing. Everything Bai Qige said fell into Su Jinyan's ears. Her beautiful jade-like eyes flickered, and when she was less than twenty feet away from the three of them, she said lightly: "Not yet for you.
When you die."
In other words, is Bai Haoyu the target this time? After confirming the opponent's intention, Bai Qige advanced instead of retreating. She stood side by side with Xiao Baishan and defended her frightened brother. Her delicate face had a look of perseverance that was not inferior to that of a man.
"If you have the ability, come and get it yourself!"
As soon as the words fell out, just like a command, the swords came out in an instant, and the cold light intertwined. Bai Qige and Xiao Baishan struck at the same time with great tacit understanding, and their bodies were as fast as theirs. Bai Haoyu was dumbfounded.
Su Jinyan narrowed her long eyes slightly, not afraid of the two men who suddenly attacked. She turned her head slightly and closed one eye. She actually aimed at the primary target in the brief moment when the sword rushed towards her, without any regard for the experienced veterans and the general manager.
An impressive woman is about to arrive.
Those who are calm and composed in the face of danger are natural killers.
Su Jinyan could disregard her own life, but Bai Qige could not disregard her brother's life. Realizing that the other party wanted to achieve his goal at all costs, the menacing attack immediately turned to defense. The horizontal knife was raised and slashed across, instead of slashing at the slender arm holding the bow.
It was a cluster of arrows that was about to fly out - Su Jinyan moved too fast and let go of her hand in the blink of an eye. Bai Qige could only cut off the arrow. Even so, the second half of the extremely powerful arrow was still
Bai Haoyu hit Bai Haoyu at a speed that was invisible to the naked eye, and hit the young man's strong chest with a muffled sound.
"Xiaoyu!" Bai Qige stopped and looked back quickly. When she saw a little blood flowing out of the corner of Bai Haoyu's mouth and covering her heart in pain, there was a loud bang in her mind.
The Bai family has fallen to this point. She does not seek glory, wealth and respect anymore. She only seeks health and longevity for her father and mother, and for her brothers and relatives to be safe and sound. Could it be that even this small wish cannot be realized? She was the one who encouraged the young and careless Bai Haoyu back then.
She made a huge mistake, and even if she had to repay it, she should be the one to repay it. Xiaoyu didn't deserve to die!
The moment she turned around, Bai Qige forgot the commandment the instructor had told her: Never expose your back to the enemy.
Now, the one behind her holding a sword and holding a bow is Su Jinyan.
"Prince Princess, be careful!" A cold light flashed across his sight. Xiao Baishan exclaimed and swung his sword to stab Su Jinyan on the horse. Unexpectedly, Su Jinyan was already on guard. She just turned over and jumped off the horse to easily avoid the blow, methodically.
He drew the long sword from his waist and rushed towards Bai Qige, who had his back turned.
With his skills and experience, it would be easy to kill someone at such a close distance.
When thousands of troops were launched, they could not care about anything else. All that could be thought of was the young prince's earnest instructions and eager gaze in the military tent at night. Xiao Baishan gritted his teeth and actually flew forward to block between Bai Qige and Su Jinyan. Everyone was worried.
Not wanting to die and being able to live and enjoy life in peace is Xiao Baishan's biggest wish in his life. However, for some reason, when Yi Chenjing bowed solemnly and asked him to keep Bai Qige safe no matter what, he felt a long-lost emotion that he could not refuse.
He still remembered how his childhood sweetheart's wife died at the hands of the enemy.
He still remembered that the stiff bones held their love token tightly in their hands.
He still remembered that he shed tears for the last time in the pouring rain, but he could not cry out the guilt of his whole life.
The purpose of fighting in all directions is not to build meritorious service or to bring glory to one's family, but to protect one's family and country, not to let tragedies happen again, not to watch lovers die apart, not to turn a marriage into eternal sorrow.
The dragon and the phoenix in troubled times are willing to give up this life for the sake of a couple who are entangled in love and vow not to regret it.
Hearing Xiao Baishan exclaiming next to him, he noticed the murderous intent surging behind him, and saw Bai Haoyu's pale face in front of him. Bai Qige thought that her road had really come to an end. An oversight led to her death at the hands of her enemy, and she had no choice but to let go.
I never thought about the promise that accompanied me. A handful of blood spattered everywhere, but my body felt no pain, no itching, and no change.
"General Xiao..." Bai Haoyu was shocked and afraid that he had run out of words. His voice changed, hoarse and dry, and there were tears in his eyes.
At that moment, Bai Qige finally understood what happened.
The back attack failed to hit Su Jinyan, who quickly dodged. Her shoulders sank, and Xiao Baishan, who stumbled backwards, collided with him. Bai Qige held the sword in one hand and supported Xiao Baishan with the other. She glanced at her and felt her breath stagnant in her chest.
Su Jinyan's sword stabbed Xiao Baishan's upper abdomen. The depth was unclear, but the blood that gushed out quickly dyed the armor red. If he could not receive timely treatment, he would definitely die.
In the moment of life and death, the bold and mature lieutenant didn't care about his injuries. He pushed Bai Qige several feet away with a heavy push. Su Jinyan, who missed the blow, tried to catch up but was unable to do so. She was caught off guard and was hugged by Xiao Baishan.
Live, unable to break free for a while.
"Go! Go!"
The rude and violent shouting shocked the ears, and Xiao Baishan, who had always been peaceful, showed his manic side for the first time. He relied on his strong body and strength to temporarily control Su Jinyan, at the cost of heavy punches on his back and a mouthful of fishy sweetness.
In terms of tactics and tactics, charging and slashing Su Jinyan is not Xiao Baishan's opponent, but when it comes to one-on-one enemy-defeating moves, Xiao Baishan is thousands of miles away from Su Jinyan, and he is the last barrier for the Bai family siblings. If Xiao Baishan falls, they can
There is no longer anyone who can delay Su Jinyan's steps and bring a glimmer of hope. Whether it is Bai Qige or Bai Haoyu, they will be buried in the vast plain today. Bai Qige knows the stakes well, even if her heart is cut like a knife and she can't bear it, she can only turn around and leave, otherwise... Xiao Baishan
Even if he died in vain.
While Su Jinyan was unable to move, Bai Qige quickly ran to Bai Haoyu and led the horse: "Xiaoyu! Get on the horse!"
"But, General Xiao——"
"I told you to get on the horse!" A moment's delay meant that Xiao Baishan suffered an extra moment of pain. Bai Qige didn't have the patience to explain more, grabbed Bai Haoyu and dragged her onto the horse's back, clamped her feet together, and galloped out.
Listening to the rising and falling of hoofbeats, Xiao Baishan knew that the two siblings were already on the horse. A smile of relief appeared on his purple face, and then he coughed out a large mouthful of blood. He was no longer able to support himself. Su Jinyan, who was used to being expressionless, also had a hint of anger.
, raised his elbow and hit it hard. With a muffled groan, Xiao Baishan let go of his arm and collapsed to the ground. His dull eyes looked at the direction in which the Bai family siblings were leaving, and gradually became cloudy.
After opening such a long distance, we can no longer catch up?
If it were anyone else, they would definitely be upset and give up. Looking at the looming figure in the tall grass, they cursed and turned away. Unfortunately, the person who was pursuing the murderer at this time was Su Jinyan, the most mysterious and profound person in the entire Yaoguo Palace.
Unpredictable special existence, no matter Xiao Baishan or Bai Qige, no one expected that he was still persisting. He dropped his sword and drew the long bow. With a twist of his wrist, a special iron arrow shot through the air with precision and force, and the wind roared.
As if to say, if you don't drink blood, you will never fall to the ground.
Bai Qige, who was unaware of it, was still dazed while running. Su Jinyan had saved her and then wanted to kill her. He clearly said that Bai Haoyu was the target and attacked her again. Could his words really be taken as true? Even if his answers were false and his contradictory behaviors were
Why? The mystery is getting bigger and bigger, and it has already exceeded the scope of her speculation. Who can tell which ones are true and which ones are false? Everyone is a pawn in the world, how many dangers are there in the puzzle waiting for her?
I couldn't get any answers to a series of questions. When I was exhausted mentally and physically, I just thought about how great it would be if Yi Chenjing was by my side.
At least when he was around, she could have a moment of peace and peace of mind.
The distant hope was shattered by the cruel reality. The sound of arrows was approaching at the snap of a finger. Before I could look back, the galloping horse suddenly trembled and threw the two siblings on its back to the ground. They struggled for a long time before they managed to sit up.
When he opened his eyes again under the choking dust, a shadow shook his sight, followed by a delicate but indifferent face.
