Chapter 68 Ambush

Chapter 68 Ambush

Jun Ci followed the path and arrived at Jinyong City before dawn. There was a fabricated talisman in the horse's luggage. She entered Jinyong City smoothly as soon as the city gate opened. From Jinyong City along Heyin to Jiyuan, Jun Ci traveled all the way.

The resignation was neither hasty nor slow.

She calculated the time and found that it would take two days at the earliest to deliver the news from the capital to Bingzhou. The letter would be delivered to Yuan Duo before dark tomorrow. If Yuan Duo knew that Zhou Chenglue was critically ill due to Yuan Zhao, he would leave immediately.

It would be unwise to attack Yuan Duo in Bingzhou, but once out of Bingzhou, there would be more routes to the capital beyond Gaoping, and she might not be able to successfully block them.

Therefore, the ambush for Yuanduo must be outside Bingzhou and before Gaoping.

Jun Ci chose Yangtou Mountain, where Luozhou and Sizhou meet!

She arrived at Jincheng before sunset and dusk. She found a restaurant in Jincheng to rest for the night. She arrived at Gaoping at noon the next day. She walked on official roads along the way. If Ying Wuchen didn't get her a talisman, she would have to go around it.

The path leads through the wild mountains.

As a result, she would have to travel day and night, and after all, the detour would be longer.

When she left Sizhou and arrived at Yangtou Mountain, the entire mountain was shrouded in sunset.

The dangerous peaks are beautiful and towering, and the power reaches the sky. The clouds spread over ten miles and are majestic and majestic.

Jun Ci's eyes seemed to be filled with rays of light, becoming dazzling and bright: "There must be many fat sheep in this mountain."

Bandits like to hide in places where the two worlds meet. They can retreat, attack close areas, or defend. Some government officials will even give money to bandits at the intersection, allowing them to cause trouble in other places.

Precipitous places like Yangtou Mountain are particularly popular with mountain bandits, as they are easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Unless there was something urgent, she would definitely go explore the depths of the mountain forest to see how much money could be made.

Holding back his eagerness, Jun Ci stayed on the only road from Yingcheng to Gaoping and passed by Yangtou Mountain.

Yuan Duo should arrive here around midnight tomorrow (three o'clock in the morning).

She had plenty of time to wait. She originally planned to hunt some wild animals at will, have a good meal, and rest for a while to recharge her batteries. But as soon as she had eaten and drank enough, she found a big tree to lie down when she heard a sound.

As she got closer, the horse was tied to a hidden place by her. She looked down at the path, where a few tall and thin people were driving a group of people. The group of people were brightly dressed and tied up one by one with ropes. They were obviously captured by bandits.

Caught.

The bandits held different weapons, looked fierce, and drove them away with rough voices. No one was allowed to move too slowly.

There were about five or six people arrested. They didn't look like a family. There was a young man with red lips and white teeth, clear eyebrows and a dignified appearance. He was wearing a luxurious silk and satin robe. At first glance, he stood out from the crowd. He and the others stood out.

A man with an expressionless face, cold brows, and a sinister look in his eyes stood close to him. The man was always protecting him intentionally or unintentionally. He seemed to be a master and servant.

The other few were plain-looking and well-dressed.

Jun Ci sat up and looked at the group of people through the branches and leaves. Not long after, the young man with a fierce look in his eyes cast his sharp and keen eyes over and found Jun Ci's location with incomparable accuracy.

Jun Ci didn't dodge or dodge, just let him see.

Such a sharp person, with no injuries on his body, and a steady pace as he walked, he looked like a Lian Jiazi at first glance. He must have seen blood and killed people to have such a look. This is not an ordinary person, and he is probably even more vicious than a gangster.

Give more.

"It seems that it was not my idea to fight the bandits alone." Jun Ci touched his chin.

This is obviously using his body as bait to penetrate deep into the enemy camp, but it is a pity that he cannot watch a good show.

She lay down again, closed her eyes, and rested for about three hours before she stood up, stretched out, and looked at the Xuan Yue hanging on the treetops with her arms and pillows: "I wonder what Mr. Jiulang is doing at this time?

"

She thought of Ying Wuchen and how he had prepared so many useful things for her. After she destroyed Zhou's ranch, she would come back to see if there were any fish that had slipped through the gangster nest in Yangtou Mountain on her return trip. Maybe she could pick them up.

With a little money, you can buy something valuable and give it back to Lord Jiulang.

As she thought happily, her ears twitched, the smile on her face faded, and she quickly sat upright.

Holding the trunk of the tree, he turned around and jumped to the other side. He jumped down slowly and quickly. A few of them jumped to the side of the horse. They put their hands in the luggage and quickly smeared the ink on their faces. Then they tied up the black scarf.

My forehead is still smooth and clean.

Taking out two daggers, carrying a bow and arrows and a quiver on his back, Jun Ci jumped in front of two trees, took out a circle of very thin and soft wire, tied it to two trees beside the road, and chose a backlit position.

Completely hidden in the night.

Not long after she jumped up and reached a big tree, several horses galloped towards her.

The blurry figure gradually became clearer. Jun Ci had seen Yuan Duo before, and the person galloping in the middle was Yuan Duo.

He brought a total of five people, four of whom were uniformly dressed like his bodyguards, two riding in front, two riding behind, Yuan Duo was in the middle, and beside him was a tall, muscular man with a beard.

Jun Ci restrained her breath and watched the six horses galloping towards her. Jun Ci was tied extremely high with iron wires. She measured the height based on her medium stature. If she was unlucky...

The people who could obviously become guards were actually about the same height. The people riding in the front ran over, and the wire just cut their necks.

In fact, the horses were not far apart. Yuan Duo reined in the horses in time. The strong man next to him looked sharply, pulled out the iron ax on the horse's back, and struck at Jun Ci's wire.

The moment his iron ax struck down, Jun Ci's hidden arrows hit the two guards at the rear.

She flew towards her with two broken swords, and the big man also jumped up. His ax was heavy but flexible, and the strokes in his hands were powerful.

Yuan Duo raised his sword and aimed it at Jun Ci. However, the confrontation between Jun Ci and the big man was very fierce. The position change was almost in the blink of an eye. He couldn't release the arrow at all. If he accidentally hurt his henchman, he would probably be dead.

One piece.

The arrow could not be aimed at Jun Ci, so he simply drew out his sword and joined in killing the enemy.

One of them attacked, the other attacked, their moves were like wind, showing their murderous intent.

The dagger in Jun Ci's hand was facing the iron axe, but he seemed to have a pair of eyes under his feet. He could easily dodge Yuan Duo's offensive. Occasionally, he could step on the sword he thrust and use his body to spin around in the air, causing the dagger to flip over.

Stirred up and forced the big Han to retreat steadily.

Or she could use her strength to feint the two of them, and when they came to pursue her, she would dodge out of the way, and their sharp blades almost fell on her own body several times.

This forced the two of them to attack in tandem. No longer able to deal with Jun Ci on the same side, Jun Ci took advantage of the gaps on the left and right sides.

The big man came from the left with his axe, and Yuan Duo came from the right with his sword, with the ax at the top and the sword at the bottom.

Jun Ci raised his sword to block it. At the same time, he pressed his hand and used the force to jump up. He quickly kicked Yuan Duo in the chest with his two feet. With the last kick, he kicked Yuan Duo out. At the same time, he used the force to flip his body in mid-air.

Her feet kicked the strong man whose hands were pinned down by her.

The man was kicked back several steps by her. Jun Ci spun his slender legs and landed firmly on the ground. He tiptoed a little, then stood up again and stabbed the big man with his dagger.

Seeing this, Yuan Duo instantly threw the sword in his hand towards Jun Ci. Jun Ci's sword chased the big man who was retreating and had just stabilized his steps. Just when he was about to stab him, Yuan Duo's sword came towards her and she had to twist her body.

Swinging his sword, he opened Yuanduo's sword.

Then he missed the best opportunity to kill the big man.

This big man was very powerful and highly skilled in martial arts. If she insisted on killing someone, she would definitely be injured. Just when Jun Ci was weighing whether to kill someone, she heard a noise coming from the mountains.

Pushing away the iron ax that the big man swung again, she turned around and opened a very long distance. However, the scarf she was wearing was pushed away by the strong wind brought by the big man's backhand axe. Under the scarf, the person was half black.

Face.

Jun Ci raised his eyes and saw that there seemed to be fire in the deep mountains. He thought it was the work of the master and servant who went deep into the bandit's den today, and might soon alert the government.

Jun Ci glanced at Yuanduo's master and servant, and jumped down towards the mountain forest alone. By the time Yuan Duo ran to the horse and picked up his bow and arrow, Jun Ci had disappeared.

"Envoy!" The big man turned to look at Yuan Duo, whose face was ashen, "Are you going back home?"

"We must return to the capital." Yuan Duo also knew that the road ahead was dangerous, but his son had set such a big trap, so he had to go.

Jun Ci waited for them to go away before turning back again. The ink on her face had been washed away, crystal water droplets shone on her cheeks, and she tossed a token in her hand.

Every time I make a facial mask, I can't recognize myself after putting it on. I just think about the ancients who wanted to assassinate people. Why would it not be better to cover their faces with face masks and smear their faces with ink?

Is it because the ink is too expensive?
