Seeing the dust raised by the horse's hooves getting closer and closer to him, Wei Zijun refused to retreat and tried hard to find Zuo'er's location.
However, she was standing on the ground, with the horse's head blocking her face and the dust making it difficult to see clearly.
It's not that she's stupid, she's stubborn and doesn't know how to get in the carriage and run. It's okay to do that in this situation, but she just doesn't want to do that.
She has been running away for long enough and far away, but she still hasn’t avoided it? Then face it!
They were already very close, and the other party's people didn't expect that the target of a hundred thousand taels of bounty would be so calm.
She just stood there with her hands behind her back, looking at them calmly and calmly.
No, for a woman like her to be so calm in the face of such a scene, does that mean that she is not worried about danger at all and that everything in front of her is under her control?
The man on the horse who had previously been holding on to him and fought hard suddenly became panicked.
Sure enough, the bounty of 100,000 taels of gold is not so easy to get!
Unfortunately, by the time they realized this truth, it was already too late. What if they changed their mind and turned around to escape? The left and right wings were already surrounding them, so there was no chance. There was no need to look at what happened next. They were designated to be the group of people who had just come out of the forest.
The few people wearing triple armor were not more opportunistic, but they changed their minds and ran away before the battle. They should have been lost in the hands of these people.
It's amazing. They were not too far away in the forest, and they didn't hear any movement or notice anything unusual.
No wonder that although the city lord is a woman, she has been able to survive for so many years without being annexed by other countries.
The people around her are indeed not ordinary people, and they are so devoted and loyal.
This situation was already in place, and it was too late to regret it. I heard faint screams in my ears, coming from not far behind. It was the voice of the blood soul. Even though they had just formed a group, even though the screams had already left.
There was no sound, but they were sure that it was the Blood Soul.
Blood Soul is a bloodthirsty and cruel guy. He does not kill for pleasure, but likes to watch the other person bleed. The more he bleeds, the more excited he becomes, so he got the nickname Blood Soul.
Of course, there is no way of knowing whether this nickname was given by someone else or by himself.
At this time, the people who wanted to get the bounty were already confused. Some people couldn't help but look in the direction of the blood soul. They happened to vaguely see the limbs on the horse's back that seemed to be missing, and the head was cut off by Leng Wuyi's knife.
A chill spread from his feet upwards. He must not have come up with the nickname Leng Yanwang himself. He was so cold-blooded and cruel. He even chopped the blood soul into multiple pieces. How could he stay on the horse for so long without falling to the ground?
Oh my god, the Leng Yan Dynasty is coming after me.
This man was so panicked that he didn't even bother to look to the side. He was stabbed in the abdomen by a sword coming from around him. He looked at the other person in shock. There are still hostages in my arms. How dare you take action?
When he reacted and wanted to put the knife across the child's neck to threaten him, he was kicked on the other side.
He fell down from the horse and reached out to grab the child. He wanted to hold him on his back even if he wanted to die, even if it was a small one.
The person who had hurt him had already neatly grabbed Zuo'er who was about to fall off his horse with one hand, and swung his sword at the fallen man's wrist with the other hand.
If he let go, he would die. If he didn't let go, he would die if he broke his wrist. He didn't know how he died in the end. Anyway, the last thing he saw with his eyes was the boy leaving his sight with wide eyes.
At the critical moment of life and death, there were only five or six people left who were surrounded and intercepted. Killers all know that those who work in this business will die sooner or later. Are they afraid of death? Of course they are.
The reason why I want to get that huge bounty is because I want to live a good life to squander it and enjoy it.
Therefore, those who had a quick brain change would set their sights on the child who had just been rescued. If he could grab it, it might be a life-saving charm.
Compared to the distance and difficulty, it seems that the city lord is more reliable than this kid.
The person who rescued Zuo'er was also seriously injured. He protected the child in his arms and leaned forward to urge the horse forward. This forward direction was not towards the location of the city lord. He felt that he and the child were in danger. If he went over,
It may bring danger to the city lord.
Children are important, and the city lord is equally important.
He Zexu, who was concentrating on the scene in front, also saw this scene, understood the intention of the subordinate, looked at the other person staring at this subordinate, gritted his teeth, picked up Wei Zijun on the back of the horse, urged the horse, and went to assist the subordinate.
.
"Hold tight." He Zexu said to his wife behind him.
"Yes." Wei Zijun responded, hugging his waist and pressing his face against his back.
He wanted to save Zuo'er, but he couldn't worry about himself, so he could only do this, but it was good.
When the follower who was protecting the child saw his master coming, he still did not dare to be careless. He approached and wanted to throw the child in his arms to the master and stop the pursuer himself.
But the master didn't look at him, and instead killed him directly behind him.
In the master's heart, his wife is important, his children are important, and he, his subordinate, is equally important.
Following such a master is worth it even if you lose your life.
There were not many men and horses still capable of fighting, but the scene became even more chaotic.
But, soon, everything ended when Leng Wuyi's last knife hit the back of the only remaining person.
He Zexu lowered his head and looked at the hands clasping quietly around his waist. His arms and sleeves were all covered in blood: "Are you okay?" he asked in a low voice.
"Don't worry, I'm fine." The response from behind made him breathe a sigh of relief.
Zuo'er's entourage slowly came over, and the child shouted softly to Leng Wuyi, who was covered in blood and had a frightening expression: "Dad."
"Hey, dad is here, don't be afraid." Leng Wuyi took the child and realized that not only was his voice out of tune, but his hands were trembling.
"Dad?" Another child's voice came from not far away, but there was no horse coming.
Presumably because he was afraid that the children would be frightened when they saw the bloody scene on the ground, Leng Wuxin felt warm in his heart and rode over. Both children were in his arms, and his heart felt completely at ease.
He Zexu and others had already dismounted to check. His injured people were treated quickly, and the killer who was still alive immediately gave him a stabbing blow.
"Master, three of our people were injured, nine were seriously injured, and the rest were lightly injured." Someone reported to He Zexu in a low voice.
When there is fighting, there are casualties. Everyone knows it, but they still feel heavy.
"Yeah." He Zexu didn't say much.
However, Leng Wuyi looked guilty, all because of saving his two children.
"Don't think too much. If you are like this, I will not die to apologize." Wei Zijun saw Leng Wuyi acting like this and persuaded him in a low voice.
Everything started because of her.
Leng Wuxin's children were also hurt by her.
After hearing this, Leng Wuyi didn't know what to say, so he simply said nothing.
Without He Zexu's orders, those who were slightly injured but not seriously injured were busy escorting their seriously injured companions back.
At this time, the people who came to support also arrived, and it fell on them to bury the killer's body.
"Master, my subordinates just searched in the woods and found an extra horse, but they couldn't find anyone." Someone came over to report again.
"Then something has slipped through the net, search." He Zexu immediately ordered.
They escorted Leng Wuyi and the two children back together. Wei Zijun did not enter the yard and was anxious to go back to help treat the seriously injured people.
At night, Adan felt very distressed when he saw his children who were still frowning and dreaming in their sleep after a near-death experience after washing themselves on the bed.
"If at that time, the killer grabbed one of my wife and our child and asked you to choose one to take away, who would you choose?" Adan asked.
Leng Wuwu, who was still drinking, stopped his glass and said, "What do you mean by asking?"
"It doesn't mean anything, I just want to ask." A Dan's tone was light and there was no hint of anger.
"There's no need to ask. My life was given by my wife. You know this." Leng Wuyi responded.
Adan smiled bitterly: "So, even though you knew the child would die, you still wanted to save her. Then, will you avenge the child?"
"Well, I will avenge the child, and then I will commit suicide and go down to accompany the child. Are you satisfied with this answer?" Leng Wuyi's tone suddenly became angry, and he drank the strong wine in the cup fiercely, and there was a wave of wine on the table.
Let go and walk out.
This kind of thing made Leng Wuyi feel very confused, and she was very afraid of losing her child.
However, Adan just asked that, and he really didn't know how to answer it correctly.
Looking at the door that was closed behind his back, Adan laughed to himself again.
It was already midnight after Wei Zijun had treated the serious and minor injuries. He returned to the room tiredly and just sat down when He Zexu came over with a can of hot meat porridge.
"I'm not hungry and don't want to eat." Wei Zijun was not in the mood to eat.
Among those who were seriously injured, two were in bad condition and it was unclear whether they would be able to survive.
"If you can't eat, you should eat less. The final game has just begun." He Zexu advised in a gentle voice.
