Chapter 352: Night Raid in the Forest, Chapter 352: The Ten Miles Forest is not appropriately named. From morning to now, they should have walked thirty miles, but there are still towering trees around them. If it weren’t for
There is a real possibility of getting lost in the woods if someone comes from Fengzhou to lead the way.
Before it got dark, Lu Teng found an open space to set up camp. The mountain was no better than the outside, with insufficient light, and it was even more dangerous at night, so it was better to be careful.
The princess's tent was naturally in the middle of the team, followed by the accompanying envoys, surrounding the tent.
The three wedding messengers all have independent tents, which are close to the princess's tent, but Lu Teng is on duty at night and does not sleep. Generally, besides the princess's big tent, there are only two more gorgeous tents.
He Rui came out of the tent and was startled when he saw Tang Ning standing at the door. He immediately took a few steps back and asked, "Master Tang is not in the tent, what are you doing here?"
Tangning looked at him and said, "My tent is broken. I wonder if I can spend the night with Mr. He?"
When He Rui heard this, he shook his head almost without thinking and said: "Master Tang, I don't know something. I am suffering from nocturnal wandering while sleeping. I am worried about hurting Master Tang at night, so I would like to ask Master Tang to find another place."
Tangning said firmly: "Then I have to watch Master He even more. What if Master He does something that hurts me?"
"No, no, no..." He Rui waved his hands repeatedly and said, "If I sleep alone, I won't suffer from sleepwalking."
He Rui had already been extremely vigilant in his heart. Normally, the two of them couldn't stand each other. How could Tangning suddenly care about him? If he agreed, he would be poisoned or have diarrhea tomorrow, so he could only say goodbye.
The state is closed.
The four colleagues along the way are a warning to others. How could he dig his own grave?
Tangning shook her head and said regretfully, "Since Mr. He doesn't want to, then forget it. I'll just find a tent to squeeze in."
Seeing Tang Ning turn and leave, He Ruicai felt relieved. At the same time, he warned himself that Tang Ning was a very strange person, and he had to stay at least five steps away from him to be safe.
Camping in the mountains and forests is no better than a inn. All you can hear are the chirping of unknown insects, and even farther away, the howls of wild beasts can be heard from time to time.
In a tent somewhere, Zhao Man grabbed his arm and asked nervously: "What is that sound?"
Tangning listened carefully and said, "Maybe it's a wolf."
Zhao Man grabbed his arm with a little more strength and said, "I'm afraid."
Tangning patted her hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm right outside."
After watching her sleep, Tang Ning walked out of the tent. Lao Zheng was sitting by the fire grilling meat. She saw him walking over and cutting a piece of meat from the lamb leg.
Tangning took it with a dagger, tasted it, and praised, "It tastes good."
In addition to his excellent knife skills, Lao Zheng was also good at barbecue. Tang Ning had learned a lot from him along the way.
Butcher Zheng took a big bite of a piece of mutton and said, "It's not very peaceful tonight."
"We only have one night left." Tangning peeled a piece of mutton, looked at him, and said, "If anything happens, protect the princess."
Lao Zheng nodded and said, "Be careful yourself."
It was already past midnight, and everything in the camp was quiet except for the patrolling guards who passed by from time to time, their armors clanking.
There were still howls of wild beasts coming from the distance. He didn't know if it was Tang Ning's imagination, but he just felt that the sound was a bit eerie, and it was getting closer and closer from just now.
Butcher Zheng put the leg of lamb aside and said, "The wolf's howling is abnormal."
Lu Teng seemed to have discovered something unusual. He strode over from the front, stopped a group of patrolling guards, and said, "Go and take a look at the front."
"yes!"
After receiving the order, a team of more than ten guards left the camp and walked towards the dense forest ahead.
Lu Teng looked into the depths of the dense forest and said, "I'm afraid there won't be peace tonight. Mr. Tang should be careful and don't leave the camp."
Tangning nodded. Although he was confident of protecting himself, he still had to be careful.
After the group of guards left, a man quickly returned and said in panic: "Commander, I don't know who it is, skinned several wolf cubs and buried them not far from our camp!"
"No, this will attract wolves!" Lu Teng's expression changed slightly and he said, "You lead fifty people and bring their bows and crossbows. Don't let them get within ten feet of the tent."
Tang Ning looked into the darkness and said, "The person who comes here is not good."
"The use of such clumsy means shows that their strength is not as good as ours." Lu Teng said, looking at Tang Ning and said, "However, just in case, Mr. Tang should camp first."
When Tangning walked into the camp, she glanced ahead and saw a lot of flashing fluorescent lights and waves of deep roars in the dense forest.
Although the number of wolves cannot be seen, there are only a few wolves in general, and the larger ones are no more than a dozen. When gathered together, it is difficult to pose a threat to the heavily armed guards. What you need to be careful of are the enemies hiding in the dark.
.
One person held a torch, ran forward quickly, looked at Lu Teng and said, "Commander, there are about thirty wolves in the pack, and the number is still increasing!"
Lu Teng said in a deep voice: "You can lead another fifty people over."
Although the number of wolves was small, the night environment did not have much impact on them. In addition, they were flexible in movement. Even with torches, they still caused a lot of trouble to the guards who went forward.
Tang Ning was comforting Zhao Man in the camp. At a certain moment, a sound of killing was suddenly heard in her ears.
He walked out of the tent and saw flames rising into the sky from behind, and heavy footsteps approaching.
"Enemy attack!"
"Protect the princess!"
"Others, follow me to meet the enemy!"
…
The guards had already reacted. Two hundred people surrounded the middle tent, and the rest rushed towards the direction of the fire and shouts.
Streams of fire suddenly flew over from the forest, and after landing, billowing smoke came out. After most of the guards smelled it, they immediately coughed violently, and then fell to the ground.
At the same time, dozens of black shadows rushed out of the forest, and several of them headed straight for the tent.
The other few people rushed to a gorgeous tent nearby.
In the thick smoke, all the guards fell to the ground. More than ten people quickly broke into the tent as if they were in a deserted place. The leader said in a deep voice: "Take Princess Chen Guo away, don't be reluctant to fight!"
From the moment the enemy appeared in the rear to the moment the guards in front of the camp fell to the ground and they were rushed into the camp, it only took a moment.
Inside the tent, a person looked at the empty tent. Under the black cloth, his expression changed drastically, and he said loudly: "No, I've fallen into a trap. Get back!"
When a few people exited the big tent, they were greeted by rows of archers.
Tangning walked out of an ordinary tent not far away. Among the dozen or so people surrounded by archers, someone yelled angrily: "Cunning Han people!"
At the same time, a fearful voice came from another camp.
"Who are you and who let you in!"
"Get out quickly, or I'll call someone if you don't!"
"Help, help!"
…
He Rui had a knife put to his head and came out of the tent. The person holding the knife was a man wrapped in a black robe. Under the black veil, a young woman's voice came.
"Put down your weapons, or I will kill him!"
He Rui looked at Tang Ning, his voice full of fear, and said loudly: "Master Tang, save me, save me!"
Tangning stepped forward. Behind He Rui, the woman's eyes widened with an expression of extreme disbelief.
After a brief moment of surprise, she tightened her grip on the knife and shouted: "Let them put down their weapons!"
He Rui's voice was already hoarse and he said hoarsely: "Master Tang, save me!"
"Do you think killing Mr. He will be useful?" Tang Ning looked at the woman behind He Rui and said, "Kill one Mr. He, and there are thousands of other Mr. He. Mr. He is so upright and upright, do you think he will accept you?
Threat?"
He took a step forward, and the woman took a step back.
He Rui stood there, as if he had been struck by lightning. After a moment, he roared: "You are avenging private revenge, Commander Lu, I want to see Commander Lu!"
"Don't worry, Master He. If you die, I will definitely avenge you." Tang Ning looked at He Rui and said, "If you die in the line of duty, the court will definitely treat your family well..."
