The night was so dark that it seemed like ink could not be melted away.
There was no lantern lit in front of the car. Lin Yunyan looked out through the curtain and could only see the outline of the ginseng on the side.
Further to the edge, there are tree shadows superimposed on the ink.
The carriage is leaning against the inside of the mountain road, and the cliffs on the outside are difficult to distinguish with the naked eye.
Lin Yunyan thought that they were like this, and so were the carriages coming down from above.
For safe driving, you must also lean on the inside.
Lin Yunyan whispered to Shen Chen: "Besides the carriage, is there any other movement?"
Shenchen had a good ear and could distinguish clearly. He listened carefully again and said, "It's just a carriage, nothing else."
Lin Yunyan responded "Okay" and said: "Stop it."
Shen Chen asked: "Is it really Li Du?"
Lin Yunyan's long eyelashes trembled.
It's almost the fourth watch, and I guess it's almost the third hour of the clock. How can ordinary people drive a carriage down the mountain at this time?
Furthermore, if Li Du, as Su Yi said, has been suffering from a cough that has not healed in recent days, he must be traveling in a carriage.
"Eight or nine are inseparable from ten." Lin Yunyan said.
She came here to bet on luck. If she didn't block Li Du, it can only be said that she was unlucky.
Shen Chen responded and quickly walked a hundred steps uphill along the mountain path.
Judging from the sound, the carriage was not moving very fast. It must have been afraid of the darkness and did not dare to run completely.
But it was a downhill road after all. If we didn't intercept it in advance, it would be bad if it collided with the princess's carriage.
After a while, the sound of horses' hooves and rolling wheels became clearer and clearer, but there was no light at all in his sight. Shen Chen's heart dropped by more than half.
If unrelated pedestrians are on their way, they will definitely light a lantern.
Shenchen's night vision was good, and he could see the outline of the carriage as soon as it appeared in his field of vision.
The driver didn't seem to notice that there was a person standing here, and he still carefully mounted the horse and moved forward. When he saw the figure, he subconsciously tightened the reins.
He didn't dare to turn for fear of falling down the mountain, and he didn't dare to hit anyone, so he just screamed.
The horse was reined in and raised its two front hooves, almost unable to stop.
However, Shen Chen relied on his outstanding skills and turned around to the side of the carriage. Several long branches in his hands were inserted into the wheels. The wheels were stuck and could not rotate smoothly, and the carriage came to a swaying stop.
The movement came out of the blue, and even though he was prepared, he jumped forward and fell off the frame, falling to the side of the road.
Not to mention the people in the carriage who had no idea.
The person sitting on the outermost side fell out of the carriage, yelled and rolled down the mountain road several times. Fortunately, he didn't roll directly off the cliff.
Uncle Niu was standing on the mountain road. When he saw someone rolling down, he stopped him with a pole.
After stopping him, he moved closer to take a look.
It was only possible to see roughly in the darkness, but this man was so bruised and swollen that he really couldn't see clearly.
A swish sound.
The fire broke out.
Lin Yunyan held it up and illuminated the man's face.
Although she was embarrassed, she also recognized the identity of this person: "Eunuch Ye."
Eunuch Ye screamed twice in pain at first, but his eyes were so wet that he couldn't make any sound at all.
His forehead was broken, blood flowed down and stained his eyes, and everything he saw was hazy and red.
He instinctively looked at the only lit fire folder, and through this light, he saw the person holding the fire folder.
Princess Ning'an!
Even if he was stunned, he would never mistake the face of Princess Ning'an!
But, why is the princess here?
Eunuch Ye opened his mouth and wanted to shout to remind his master, but he couldn't make a sound despite his efforts.
On the contrary, it was Uncle Niu who was holding his collar. After Lin Yunyan confirmed his identity, he lifted Eunuch Ye up to a sitting position without saying a word and slashed the back of his neck with a knife.
Eunuch Ye immediately lost consciousness.
Niu Bo had never practiced martial arts, and his only ability was the chopping knife, and he could not do anything else.
He signaled Lin Yunyan to be careful, and he was about to lift Eunuch Ye to the side of the mountain. Anyway, this man wouldn't wake up for a while, and killing or beheading him would be a matter later.
For now, I still have to go see other people.
Uncle Niu had only dragged the man halfway when he saw a staggering figure not far away.
"Princess!" he reminded.
Lin Yunyan also saw it.
Ahead, Shenchen was fighting with the handlebar type.
Eunuch Ye fell off the car and rolled away, and Liu Xun and Li Du inside didn't try to please him.
Liu Xun fell out of the carriage. In a panic, he reached out and grabbed the pole of the carriage frame to prevent him from rolling out. Li Du was stopped by Liu Xun and bumped into a ball, so he was able to stabilize himself.
Even if he couldn't see clearly what was happening around him, Li Du knew that the situation was not good.
He was blocked.
Ignoring the pain, Li Du held on to the frame of the bicycle and stood firm, looking at the person in the darkness: "You are..."
Shen Chen curled his lips.
He really stopped Li Du!
At the same time, he also recognized that the man sitting on the ground was Liu Xun.
Liu Xun was hit hard by the fall. Seeing that there was only one person on the other side, he had the courage to look.
"Shen, Shenchen?" he exclaimed, "You are Shenchen!"
Liu Xun panicked immediately.
Today was Li Du's arrangement. Even if something went wrong halfway, Liu Xun was afraid of returning, but he didn't feel like he was at the end of his rope.
Li Du is still here, how afraid is Liu Xun of him?!
After falling out of the car, he was just stunned, and no other emotions continued. Until the moment he saw the person blocking the car clearly, panic suddenly came out.
Liu Xun didn't have many interactions with Shen Chen, but in his eyes, Shen Chen was Xu Jian.
He hates Xu Jian and is also afraid of Xu Jian.
Xu Jian is cruel and merciless!
How could someone with so much conscience send his own brother into exile and his biological father's reputation be ruined?
If it falls into Xu Jian's hands, he is finished!
Even though Liu Xun heard that Xu Jian led troops to Yumen Pass, at this moment, he still felt that if Shenchen was here, then Xu Jian would be here.
When Liu Xun called out, Li Du also recognized him.
A trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, and a good situation was disrupted again.
The situation can be ruined, but he can never be caught. There is only one person here, Shen Chen, and they have the advantage in numbers.
Li Du yelled "Let's go", completely ignoring the pain from the bump on his body, he gritted his teeth and ran down the mountain path.
Liu Xun saw this and hurriedly followed him, stumbling.
Shen Chen wouldn't let them get away, but that chariot-handling figure was also a martial artist, so he pounced on them with bared teeth and claws.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The pain in the body made the driver's eyes red, and he danced with a riding crop, impulsively wanting to die together with Shen Chen.
Fighting alone, it would not be difficult for Shen Chen to defeat him, but Li Du and Liu Xun wanted to escape distractedly, fearing that they would hurt Lin Yunyan and Uncle Niu if they went down.
The two were originally not far apart, but within a few rounds, they had already seen each other.
Especially on Lin Yunyan's side, when she saw the movement, she immediately blew out the fire seal.
There was no way she was holding up the light as a living target.
But even if it was just for a moment, Li Du and Liu Xun had already seen her.
The two of them were stunned for a moment.
It was an accident that Shen Chen appeared here, but it wasn't completely unexpected. After all, he was Xu Jian's personal follower and he was very skilled.
But why is Ning'an here?
A little girl with no power to restrain a chicken, even if Ning An acted arbitrarily, how could Shen Chen agree to let her follow?
Liu Xun's mind was filled with "why", he lost control of his feet, his left foot struggled with his right foot, and he fell like a dog chewing on the mud.
Li Du didn't care about him and kept running forward.
Liu Xun gritted his teeth and tried to get up. Suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind.
Unfortunately, it was so fast that he didn't catch it and could only stare blankly at the blurry shadow in the darkness.
Although he couldn't catch it, he instinctively felt it was dangerous and worried about his life, so he didn't dare to get up again and wished he could shrink into the ground.
Shen Chen ignored Liu Xun who was in a panic and was at a loss. He wrapped his sword around the riding crop and whipped it hard.
After letting go of the weapon, Shanchen went to draw the dagger from his chest. Shen Chen raised his head and kicked it.
He didn't hold back his strength, just for a quick victory. He couldn't let Li Du threaten the princess.
The powerful and heavy kick may have directly injured the organs, blood spurted out from the handle, and Shen Chen was no longer able to fight.
The night wind howled, causing the trees to sway.
The mountain wind in late September was full of chill, and it filled his mouth and nose. Li Du almost covered his mouth and coughed again.
He reluctantly held back, mentally plotting a way out.
Su Yi went to the direction of Ji'an Town, and Wang Jie went back to Zhuangzi. No matter who it was, water from afar could not save the fire from near.
With only two legs, he couldn't outrun Shen Chen.
The only thing that can be used is the horse.
Their carriage fell behind them, with Ning An's carriage in front.
It would take time to remove the cart frame from the horse. He had to capture Ning'an and use Ning'an as a hostage to let the driver unload the cart.
Li Du's thinking was very clear.
He saw Ning An's position before. Even if he moved a few steps, it was roughly the same. When he got closer, he could see more clearly. He had to hit it with one hit...
What Li Du didn't know was that Lin Yunyan thought the same way.
She stood on the mountain path without moving a step.
Seeing the figure running towards her getting closer and closer, the various pictures in her mind became clearer and clearer.
Once upon a time, Niu Bo drove his car at high speed on this mountain road.
Once upon a time, she and Xu Jian tried every means to get rid of their pursuers.
In the past, they were even more embarrassed than Li Du is now!
She thought of the courtyard, the collapsed roof, the billowing smoke, the scorching flames...
She heard the chirping of cicadas.
Li Du was already in front of him, only four arms' length away from Lin Yunyan.
Definitely win!
Stretching out his palm, Li Du grabbed Lin Yunyan's neck.
Lin Yunyan suddenly raised her right hand, with the cuff facing Li Du.
call out--
The air was cut by something.
Li Du didn't react. He only knew something had stabbed him with such force that he couldn't control his body and fell backwards.
Subconsciously, he retracted his palm and reached for his throat.
It's very cold, that thing is very cold.
It was hot, his blood was boiling hot.
Li Du's eyes widened and he looked at Lin Yunyan not far away in disbelief.
Without Xu Jian around, or even Shen Chen taking action, how could a little girl like Ning An...
Li Du fell to the ground and looked at the dark sky, which was getting darker and darker.
He knew he was going to die soon.
Before the great cause was accomplished, he actually died...
Li Du was motionless, and it was impossible to move again.
Lin Yunyan put down her arms and looked expressionlessly, then raised her eyes and looked in the direction of Liu Xun.
Liu Xun was already stupid.
what happened?
He only saw Li Du rushing towards Lin Yunyan, but Li Du fell down without touching her at all.
What is this...
Why would a weak woman like Lin Yunyan...
"Ah!" Liu Xun yelled, holding his head.
The thoughts that I had not grasped before could not be clearer this time.
He thought of Fa'an Temple, the words of Zhike Monk and the pilgrims, the long mountain road, and the possibility that he had rejected.
"It's you!" Liu Xun looked at Lin Yunyan in horror and shouted, "It was you who killed Geng Baoyuan!"
Lin Yunyan laughed and walked towards Liu Xun: "So what if it's me?"
"I..." Liu Xun was speechless and couldn't continue.
Reporter? Tell His Highness?
His current situation is really bizarre!
"I definitely won't tell anyone." Liu Xun gave up.
Lin Yunyan even dared to kill Li Du!
It is true that Li Du was treasonous, but with his status, it would be logical to capture him and hand him over to the Holy Master. However, Lin Yunyan killed him with one arrow.
She could obviously shoot Li Du directly in the leg or arm and kill him alive.
"I won't talk about Geng Baoyuan, and I won't talk about how Li Du died," Liu Xun cried and begged for mercy, "Please let me go, sister-in-law, please let me go for the sake of your mother! I'll go back to Quzhou.
, I can’t say a word!”
Lin Yunyan pursed her lips: "Sister-in-law? Do you deserve to be called that? Mother? You only think of mother when you are in trouble!"
Liu Xun wanted to say something else, but Lin Yunyan and Shen Chen said: "Break his right leg!"
Shen Chen's face didn't change, and he did whatever the princess told him, regardless of the reason.
The long sword stabbed Liu Xun's right leg, blood spurted out, and he howled in pain.
Lin Yunyan looked at Liu Xun for a moment, with tears in her eyes.
"Some things are destined to happen." She whispered what Xu Jian had said in a low voice.
That was the answer Xu Jian worked hard to get time and time again.
He avoided the long swords of the Xiliang people and fought for several years, but still injured his leg.
Mrs. Xu once told Lin Yunyan about her nightmare. In the dream, she went crazy.
He stabbed Liu Jing with scissors; he ran away with his white hair protected by Xu Jian; he fell down in the ancestral hall and cried bitterly while holding his parents' memorial tablets...
Lin Yunyan remembered it all.
Mrs. Xu said that Xu Jian fled with her on his back and was surrounded by people. Xu Jian was stabbed in the leg. She saw bright red blood and Liu Xun standing not far away.
Her youngest son just looked at it, neither helping her nor Xu Jian.
It was a dream, but not a dream.
This is a time that Lin Yunyan has never gone through, but it is a time that Xu Jian has really worked hard for.
Lin Yunyan bit her lip, tears sliding down her face, but her heart was quieter than ever.
The person who fell in the alley could change from Chen Dong's family to Li Yuanfa, so why could the person with a broken leg only be Xu Jian and not Liu Xun?
I thought I would never meet Liu Xun again in this life, but for Mrs. Xu's sake, they didn't kill him after the Holy Lord's judgment.
But Liu Xun came back again, riding in a carriage with Li Du, watching Lin Yunyan kill Li Du.
So, if there is a grudge, take revenge, and if there is a grudge, take revenge.
Blood debt must be paid with blood!
"No one will be left alive," Lin Yunyan said.
Shen Chen should come down.
Liu Xun was still holding his right leg and whining. When he heard Lin Yunyan's order, he was dumbfounded.
Lin Yunyan had already injured his leg, but she wanted to kill him?!
"Vicious woman!" he shouted, "you..."
Shen Chen stepped forward and covered Liu Xun's mouth.
Soon, there was no movement behind Lin Yunyan.
She glanced at the sky and said to Uncle Niu: "Let's go down the mountain."
