There is a saying that those who come are not good and those who are good will not come.
It's just that this happened too suddenly.
Li Qi couldn't help but be caught off guard
You must know that this is Bianjing, the capital of the Song Dynasty, and it is also an area under the jurisdiction of the guards. How could Li Qi have imagined that he would encounter an ambush here? He was really careless and missed Jingzhou.
He has always acted very cautiously, but today there happened to be so many coincidences. If he had known this, he would have taken Ma Qiao with him. If he had known this, he might not have come. If he had known this, he might not have come.
But so many coincidences appeared at the same time, which made him think clearly about why these people appeared when he was alone. He came to only one conclusion, that is, he had been missed for a long time.
In fact, at the beginning, Li Qi still held a trace of luck in his heart. However, when he saw the four people emerging from behind, the trace of luck in his heart was shattered. He knew that it would be difficult to escape tonight.
An unprecedented fear filled Li Qi's heart
His face was sweating profusely, he held Feng Yinu's hand tightly, glanced left and right, and suddenly took Feng Yinu's hand and slowly retreated to the right, whispering: "Throw away the lantern quickly.
"
Feng Yinu was confused for a long time and didn't hear Li Qi's words at all.
Seeing that she didn't respond, Li Qi pulled her hand hard and said again: "Throw the lantern away quickly."
Feng Yinu came back to his senses, quickly threw away the lantern, and said in fear: "Who are these people?"
"enemy"
As soon as he finished speaking, the men in black suddenly activated their weapons simultaneously and rushed towards Li Qi without saying a word.
"Run quickly"
Li Qi took Feng Yinu's hand, turned around and fled towards the small alley on the right leading to the Second Sweet Water Lane.
Li Qi pulled Feng Yinu and ran wildly in the alley. He faintly heard the footsteps behind him fading away and was secretly happy. But when he ran to the middle of the alley, he suddenly stopped and stared blankly ahead, dark.
With a trace of despair in his eyes, he finally understood why those people behind him didn't pursue and fight fiercely.
Feng Yinu was stunned when he saw Li Qi suddenly stop. He followed his gaze and couldn't help but look horrified. He saw two black figures standing at the end of the alley.
This is simply a dead end.
Li Qi turned around and saw that the pursuers behind him had also caught up. Although there were less than ten of them, they looked dark against the backdrop of this narrow alley.
Maybe it was because it was too dark in the alley, or maybe they thought Li Qi was already in trouble, so they didn't want to rush as fast as before, but walked towards Li Qi at a normal walking speed.
Feng Yinu looked around, anxious tears already welling up in his eyes. He looked at Li Qi and said, "What should I do?"
Li Qi was startled for a moment and sighed: "I'm sorry that I've caused trouble for you."
Apologizing is the only thing he can do now. Even though he doesn't want to admit it, he is already desperate in his heart. He doesn't have Ma Qiao's ability to fight against ten. Facing so many assassins, how can he escape?
Feng Yinu was suddenly startled, then lowered his head and said sadly: "Actually, it was me who caused you trouble. Maybe I am really an unknown woman like Bao Xiruo." She couldn't help but think of the last time she was in the palace.
Li Qi, who was also chased and almost killed, lost his life
As Feng Yinu's voice became softer and softer, Li Qi could only hear the first half of the sentence clearly, and rolled his eyes and said: "Please, they are obviously coming for me. You don't have such great ability to make the other party mobilize forces like this."
"As he spoke, he suddenly let go of his hand, retreated to the wall, and said, "Stay away from me, maybe they can spare your life."
When he said this, his eyes turned red, and his tears were full of unwillingness and helplessness.
Feng Yinu raised his head and looked at Li Qi, and suddenly smiled inexplicably. The fear in his eyes instantly disappeared without a trace. He smiled and said: "If I were them, I would never let them live. Anyway, they killed an important member of the imperial court. How can I still survive?"
Do you care if I have another little girl?"
After hearing what she said, Li Qi accepted his fate and smiled bitterly: "I really hope they are not as smart as you."
Feng Yinu pursed his lips and smiled. Not only was there no fear at all, but there was also a hint of happiness. He moved lightly, stood next to Li Qi, and asked: "Are you afraid?"
Li Qi shook his head with a wry smile and said: "People who are already desperate cannot feel fear, but this happened too fast, which makes people feel a little unreal."
"Snoring"
At this critical moment, a thunderous snoring sound suddenly sounded in the alley
Li Qi and Feng Yinu couldn't help but be startled.
All the assassins also stopped.
This snoring sound is really too weird. Everyone in the alley is looking for the owner of this snoring sound.
Feng Yinu suddenly pulled Li Qi and pointed to the left.
Li Qi pulled Feng Yinu forward a few steps and faintly saw a cart opposite. The cart was piled with weeds. The snoring sound seemed to come from the weeds. Li Qi took a step forward.
, and when I looked carefully, I saw that there seemed to be a person lying on the weeds, but I could only see below the neck, because his face was covered by a big bamboo hat.
At the same time, a strong smell of alcohol hit his face and ushered in
Li Qi and Feng Yinu immediately covered their noses, and they both thought at the same time that he was a drunkard.
However, the sudden appearance of this drunkard delayed Li Qi's life, because the assassins did not know what was going on ahead, so they became more cautious.
Li Qi had already put life and death at risk. Seeing this drunkard, he couldn't help but remember that when he came to travel to the Northern Song Dynasty, he was just like him, happy with the situation, drunk from morning to night, and still felt a sense of intimacy in his heart.
He took out all the money in his arms and threw it away, saying: "I hope you are like me, a person played by God." But he sighed in his heart, maybe this is reincarnation.
The assassins hesitated for a moment, then began to move towards Li Qi again, but they became very cautious with every step they took.
Li Qi glanced at this group of idiots and immediately understood their thoughts. He couldn't help but feel angry and funny. It turns out that this little money can buy me a few more minutes of survival in this world. My life is too worthless.
"Deputy Commander, Deputy Commander"
"Master!"
Just when Li Qi was despairing, the shouts of Ma Qiao and Lu Meimei suddenly sounded outside.
These two shouts made Li Qi so excited that he almost burst into tears, and the desire to survive instantly burst out. Without caring about his face, he opened his throat and shouted: "Maqiao, Maqiao, I'm here,
Come and save me, Maqiao"
Feng Yinu also cried with joy and shouted after him
The assassins seemed to be shocked and realized that Li Qi's reinforcements were coming. They were stunned for a moment and didn't care anymore. They raised their swords and rushed towards Li Qi.
Seeing that the assassins were about to rush towards Li Qi, they suddenly heard the sound of horse hooves behind them. The assassins turned around and saw one man and one horse rushing over.
If not, who is Maqiao?
How can such a handsome word be so important?
Moreover, Lu Meimei also followed closely behind
In the blink of an eye, Ma Qiao had already rushed over. Seeing the ferocity of the attack, the assassins did not dare to confront him for a moment and got out of the way. However, when Ma Qiao passed by them, they slashed with their swords.
Ma Qiao was on guard for a long time. He put his hands on the horse's back and performed a spin similar to that of Thomas in later generations of gymnastics. It was simply a man and horse uniting into one. With a few bangs and bangs, he fended off the attacks of those people perfectly and broke through with the momentum.
Because the light in the alley was too weak, Li Qizhen was afraid that Ma Qiao would overshoot, so he stretched out his hand and said: "Ma Qiao, I'm here."
"Deputy Commander, hold my hand"
Ma Qiao leaned on the horse's neck and stretched out his hand towards Li Qi. Although he had just exchanged a blow with those people, he also noticed that those people were not weak, so he did not dare to stay for a long time.
Li Qi knew that Lu Meimei was behind him, so he was not worried about Feng Yinu and quickly stretched out his hand. However, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he suddenly heard the white horse sitting down in Maqiao scream in surprise, and then suddenly fell down.
"ah!"
He heard Ma Qiao scream again and saw him flying forward suddenly.
This incident immediately shocked Li Qi.
Another horse neighing was heard, and Lu Meimei was seen in front of Li Qi. She suddenly pulled the reins with both hands, and the horse immediately stood up.
Li Qi was slightly startled. When he saw the overturned cart in front of him, he immediately realized that Maqiao had tripped over because of the wooden cart loaded with weeds parked nearby. But to his surprise,
The snoring didn't stop
How much alcohol did this man drink? Li Qi couldn't help but feel a little depressed, but he felt a lot more relieved.
"Ouch, what is it?"
But when Ma Qiao flew out, he rolled around on the ground and stood up immediately.
This idiot, why didn't he even look at the road? Li Qi was really about to cry.
But this really can't be blamed on Ma Qiao. Firstly, the situation was so urgent, and secondly, the road was only so wide, and the light was so dark. At that time, he kept looking for where Li Qi's hand was, where he could care so much.
Lu Meimei actually didn't see the cart, but the incident in Maqiao reminded her
But at this time, they couldn't allow them to think too much, because the assassins had already rushed up.
Seeing that Ma Qiao could still call, Lu Meimei felt relieved. Then she saw the assassins rushing up. She jerked the reins, turned the horse's head around, and placed it in the middle of the alley. Then she jumped off the horse, roared, and pushed with both hands.
The horse turned sideways and rushed towards the assassins, "Brother, you take the deputy commander and go first."
There is a group of people behind and two people in front. Naturally, we have to break through from the front.
Chichi!
Several sharp knives passed directly through the horse's body and almost pierced Lu Meimei's abdomen. This also made Lu Meimei break into a cold sweat. She pushed hard with both hands and jumped back quickly.
"Junior sister"
How could Ma Qiao leave Lu Meimei alone here? He was about to step forward to help, but the two people in front of him had already rushed to him, raising their swords to chop down. Ma Qiao did not retreat but advanced, turned around, and used his shoulders to support his left side.
Under the man's armpit, he grabbed the man's forearm with one hand and bent it down hard, but there was a sound of cracking bones.
The assassin screamed immediately
Ma Qiao stretched out his hand to grab the knife from the man's hand, but he never expected that these assassins would tie the knife to his hand with a cloth bag.
"call!"
Suddenly, a strong gust of sword wind from the right hit his neck. Ma Qiao didn't even look at it and quickly bowed.
"Snapped!"
I saw the head of the assassin behind Ma Qiao flying out directly.
"ah!"
Feng Yinu immediately screamed in fright (To be continued...)
