When Lan Shu heard the emphasis on the word "hundred" in his mouth, she twitched the corner of her mouth, but her mind wandered far away.
The Lan clan received the Holy Order from Emperor Gaozu and in order to guard the imperial mausoleum, they could recruit others to form a guard. However, the number was limited, and the number of Lan clan members could not exceed one hundred.
But this is a royal secret. How could he, a warrior, know about it? Could this person really be the emperor's confidant?
Then you can't stay.
Lan Shu moved slightly, and a black shadow jumped out from behind Boyi and struck at the back of Boyi's neck.
Boyi didn't look back, he turned his head slightly to avoid the blow, turned his wrist and stabbed backward, and everyone heard the sound of the sharp blade sinking into the flesh.
Boyi was still staring at Lan Shu closely, and he moved the knife horizontally with his backhand and took it back in front of him very easily.
There is no trace of blood or scratches on the knife, and it is still as new as if it had just been tempered.
But everyone saw that suddenly there were two human-like objects behind him, one on the left and one on the right.
It turned out to be easily split in half.
"Ninety-nine," Boyi pointed the knife directly at Lan Shu's face and asked in a deep voice: "Lan Shu, do you still have any objections?"
The cold and mixed energy carried by the knife came towards her face. Wherever the wind of the knife passed, Lan Shu felt pain on the left side of her eyebrow.
Listening to what Boyi just said, he can be sure that this person must know something!
He suppressed the trembling involuntarily when facing the magic weapon, and twitched the corner of his mouth: "Master Bo, what are you talking about? The assassin just now was really terrifying, and he came straight towards you. It seems that you are right, the only way is to hold on
Only the similarities between the inside and outside can keep everyone safe."
Seeing that no one had any objections, Boyi sheathed his sword, turned around and stepped onto the pontoon, standing outside the imperial mausoleum, leaving only two corpses and blood on the ground.
Yu Qiansi had just taken advantage of the chaos and had sneaked out of the imperial mausoleum and into the jungle of the canyon.
Holding on to the rocks and looking towards the imperial mausoleum, he saw Boyi striding out.
He is dressed in black and has a plain knife. His hair, which was half wet just now, has already dried and is slightly curled up and falling casually on his shoulders, like lazy and tired leaves in autumn.
Yu Qiansi tightened her grip on Yuli Qiankun, feeling uneasy in her heart.
Boyi, who was eloquent in the imperial mausoleum just now, was witty, decisive in killing, and also had chivalrous feelings.
Although he is dressed in black, he is the most eye-catching. It is far different from the taciturn appearance that followed him around in the past.
This is the real him.
He can be the sharpest knife on the battlefield in the sandy world, or the most carefree wine in the wanton world.
But the only thing is that he shouldn't be trapped in this small world like the capital like he is now.
Follow yourself, lose all your sharpness, and just be a person who may lose his life at any time for something that is not worth it.
When the wind blew up, Boyi's shoulders trembled slightly as he stood facing the imperial mausoleum. He slowly turned around and looked up at the dark forest on the canyon cliffs, as if he was patrolling something.
Although Yu Qiansi knew that she could not be seen outside the forest, she still took a step back slightly.
He also made a decision silently and turned around to leave.
She couldn't figure out what Shang Ci was going to do, whether it was related to today's incident, and who was behind it, but for her right now, it was just a matter of elbow and armpit.
The most important thing at the moment is to find the real culprit of the poisoning.
Since we are chasing a murderer, we just need to look for clues.
Just now, she had some ideas.
If her prediction is good, she might be able to find clues in the ghost market.
But now that she only has ten days, she naturally cannot rush back to the capital.
Yu Qiansi stood in the forest, thought for a moment, bypassed several canyon formations, and ran quickly towards the road down the mountain.
If you want to verify your guess, it's not impossible to get materials nearby.
The place near the intersection at the bottom of the mountain is already far away from the canyon formation, but the jungle and rocks are densely covered, making the road particularly difficult.
When he finally saw some mountain roads dyed white by the moonlight among the branches, Yu Qiansi had been walking in the mountains for about an hour. He breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to find a wider tree gap to squeeze through.
A sharp roar suddenly came from the front left.
At that time, she was blocked by two trees and could not dodge. She tried her best to turn away, but she was still hit in the right shoulder by a short crossbow.
Immediately afterwards, there were dense footsteps on the road, and it was unclear how many people there were.
Yu Qiansi had no choice but to lean down to adjust her breathing, grabbed a handful of soft soil from the ground, and threw it towards the nearest sound.
Sure enough, someone warned loudly: "Be careful! It may be poisonous!"
The sound of approaching footsteps gradually slowed down.
At this time, the bright moon was covered and the forest was dark. She gritted her teeth and tapped the acupuncture point on her right shoulder to seal the blood. She took this opportunity to climb up the tree to refresh her luck, controlled her breathing, and turned towards the depths of the forest.
And go.
There were occasional sounds of patrolling shuttles behind him, and occasional firelight, which made the leaves in the forest look like mirrors, reflecting fine orange light.
Yu Qiansi found a taller tree, climbed to the crown, and leaned against the tree to adjust her breathing.
But the severe pain in her shoulder continued to stimulate her. Her hands and feet were numb, and her vision gradually became blurry.
There should be something poisonous like anesthetic on the shoulder.
It seemed that this group of people did not want to kill him, but only wanted to capture him alive.
But in such a short period of time, how could anyone gather so many people to block themselves here?
Yu Qiansi bent down, struggled to reach the vines, tied himself to the tree, and sat down.
"Look carefully at the blood stains! She was hit, she shouldn't be able to walk far!"
She looked down and saw a man holding a torch and walking under the tree with his waist slightly bent.
She sneered: "A bunch of idiots!"
Randomly took out a medicine bottle in his arms, wrapped his hands around it and swallowed a pill. Only then did he feel better. Although the injury on his shoulder was still very painful, the bleeding speed had also slowed down a lot.
She leaned against the tree, raised her head and took a deep breath, trying to understand the current situation.
According to Xinyan's location and time just now, Chudu and Suanzhuo should not have encountered these people.
In other words, after the smoke was released, someone realized that he had not left the imperial mausoleum, so he set up an ambush here.
The injury on her shoulder jumped and jumped, causing her to grin and chuckle.
No matter who or what method he used to get the news, blocking him on this road only proved his suspicion.
As long as we continue along this road, we will be able to solve the poisoning problem in less than ten days.
After adjusting his breath for a while, his limbs gradually regained consciousness.
Half of the short crossbow on her shoulder was still exposed on her shoulder. She took out her dagger and cut off the outer part, then put it into her sleeve. She lowered her head and untied the vines on her body. She moved a little to make sure it would not injure the wound.
Then he stood up and looked around.
The place where she was hiding was not far from the intersection of the ambush. The group of people did not expect that she was hiding around them and had already explored the depths of the forest.
But there must be someone staying close to the road.
Time waits for no one. If you don't leave now, it may be even harder to escape after dawn in two hours.
I thought of the many formations outside the imperial mausoleum and above the canyon.
The shortcut is not feasible, so it is not a big deal to take the long way around. There are several mountain trails in the canyon on the side far away from Longyuan. From there to Longyuan, it will take at least two more days of detour.
But because of this, this group of people would not think of setting up an ambush there in such a short period of time.
Even if her whereabouts were discovered on the road, those formations could help her trap some people. If the noise was too big, they might even be able to alert Boyi outside the imperial mausoleum.
After figuring out the direction, Yu Qiansi gathered her breath and concentrated, using her strength with one step, she jumped between the trees and headed towards the way she came.
