Everything happened so suddenly that the soldiers in the room were stunned and did not react.
And suddenly, Zhongli Ying moved in front of Yu Fei's soldier, reached out and grabbed his neck, and at the same time, his feet flew up. Another soldier accompanying Han Xu who was still standing there was clamped by the neck.
There were two soft creaking sounds, and the three of them fell to the ground. Because of the support in the middle, there was no loud sound.
Zhongli, who fell to the ground, was not frozen at all. He slid down next to Han Xu like a fish, grabbed the soldier who had just pulled out the knife, covered his mouth with one hand, held the soldier's hand with the other and drew the knife across his neck. Blood spurted out again.
Xiao Bing twitched a few times in Zhongli's hand and became motionless, the fierce surprise on his face solidified.
This all happened suddenly too.
"Ask him..." Han Xu only had time to whisper a few words, but stopped the next moment and let out a haha of laughter, "General Yu, please get up quickly."
Laughter makes a dead room come alive.
Han Xu lowered his head and looked at the lifeless Yu Fei in his arms, and then looked at Zhongli who was kneeling next to him and knocking down the assailant. In the blink of an eye, they were the only two people alive in the room.
Han Xu understood Zhongli's approach. Yu Fei's personal soldiers must have called out, and the purpose of the soldier he brought was to provoke a fight between the two parties. He must also call out the other soldier, whether it was a comrade or a comrade.
Innocent, no one can guess at this time, and would rather kill by mistake.
As for explaining to Yu Fei's troops, Han Xu, who had been an official for twenty years, was not so naive.
"Sir." Zhongli half-knelt on the ground and looked at Han Xu, "Ying Chen has rebel accomplices."
Han Xu nodded. He knew that people's hearts were different nowadays, but he thought that they were in the minority and did not dare to show it under the general trend. Unexpectedly, he underestimated that people's hearts had become so crazy.
He slowly laid Yu Fei on the ground with a complicated expression, but now was not the time to sigh.
"Do you remember the road to this valley?" he asked in a low voice.
Nakazato nodded.
"I'll lure them away, and you can escape." Han Xu said.
Zhongli grabbed his hand to stop him from getting up.
"In emergency situations, don't make unnecessary pretences." Han Xu warned the ranger not to say pedantic words such as "I won't abandon you if you don't abandon me." He always took life and death lightly.
Zhongli waved to him, stood up and walked gently to the door, suddenly raising his voice: "Here comes someone."
Han Xu's heart skipped a beat, and the next moment he discovered that Zhongli had imitated Yu Fei's voice. If he hadn't seen Yu Fei still lying at his feet, he almost thought Yu Fei was really speaking.
There was a sound outside the door, and the door was pushed open. Two soldiers walked in. Before they could see the room clearly, Zhongli closed the door in one step and hit the two soldiers' necks with both hands.
Han Xu watched Zhongli begin to untie the clothes of the two of them, and he understood. He took off the blood-stained clothes without Zhongli's instructions. Although he was pessimistic about life and death, he still wanted to live after death, so he would be pessimistic about it later.
"Get out."
Other soldiers standing outside the stone house heard Yu Fei's voice coming from inside. Then the door opened and lights poured out. The next moment they were blocked by the figures of two soldiers. One of them was holding a tea cup, and the other was holding a cloth.
He wrapped something and walked forward with his head lowered.
Questions flashed in the minds of the soldiers on both sides, what were they taking, and where were they going? The thought just flashed through instinct, and it was quickly taken back and landed around the stone house. This is what they want to guard.
Han Xu followed Zhongli closely, and disappeared into the darkness. But even in the darkness, they did not dare to take it lightly. Breathing would suddenly come from a certain corner in the darkness. They held their breath and restrained from speeding up.
There is no light in the winding valley, but as long as you go out, you can...
The horizon ahead suddenly seemed to be burned through, and the sounds of fighting and shouting and horse hooves were rolling like thunder.
"The rebels are attacking!"
Shouts came and went in the distance and nearby.
Han Xu stopped, the worst thing happened.
Why do small soldiers commit crimes like dead soldiers? It must be to prepare for a bigger back-up. The rebels outside have arrived, and they only need to wait for the death of the leader inside to cause chaos in the army.
Because of his caution, no one could get close to him except Dr. Han, who was prestigious in the court.
It's hateful, Han Xu looked up at the dark valley. It's hateful that martial arts are useless even if he's not brave. It's hateful that he died of such a sinister plot and was killed among the rebels in the valley who no one knows about.
After his death, he may remain unknown, or he may be accused of being a rebel.
How hateful!
"Sir, let's go quickly." Zhongli called back.
Can't leave anymore.
"Yu Fei is dead! Yu Fei is dead!"
"Surrender without killing! Surrender without killing!"
Thunder rolled from the horizon, and the chaotic and noisy shouts became clear.
The door of the stone house was pushed open with a bang, and the bodies scattered inside made the soldiers' eyes red with shock.
"The general has been killed!"
"Catch those two!"
The winding valley looked like fireflies flying out, and the stars lit up bit by bit.
.......
.......
Torches were burning on the ground, and the vegetation in the valley was engulfed by tongues of flames. Black smoke shrouded the two people running among them, but no matter which way they ran, there were always tongues of flames poking out.
"My lord, be careful."
With this shout, Han Xu was left behind, watching Zhongli leaping, and the sword in his hand waved a cold light, fending off several soldiers who rushed towards him.
Han Xu stepped back, but before he could take a few steps, a strong wind came from behind him. With a clang, the incoming sword and gun was knocked away by Zhongli who spun around.
Han Xu watched this young man transform into more than a dozen people, guarding him firmly regardless of north, south, west or east. The young man's body was stained with blood, and his military uniform was torn and torn. If the young man moved forward with all his heart, he would be unstoppable.
...
It’s time to take a dim view of life and death.
"Go quickly." Han Xu shouted, "Don't abandon hundreds of thousands of people for me alone. Go and tell them that the thieves are in the city."
Zhongli didn't seem to hear it, so he repulsed a group of soldiers, grabbed Han Xu and carried him on his back before running away.
These rangers believe in recognizing their masters, which is pedantic. Han Xu shouted: "I order you to kill the thief! As long as you kill the thief who harmed me, you will be loyal to me!"
Zhongli threw him to the ground, and instead of running away, he took a step across and repelled the soldiers rushing in front. There were noises from all directions, and the torches were as bright as day.
"There are reinforcements! There are reinforcements!"
Shouts came from outside, surprising and frightening.
"Whose reinforcements?"
Is it Fan Yang's army who has already entered the valley, or is it someone else? Who else can be trusted? A general standing in the light turned his horse's head with grief and anger on his face.
"Kill those two thieves! Revenge General Yu!"
This is probably the only way they can win.
The footsteps of torches all over the mountains and valleys gathered in one direction, and Zhongli ran wildly with Han Xu on his back. The winding roads seemed to be roads, but they were dead ends.
Zhongli finally couldn't hold on anymore and threw himself down.
"In order to protect my life, why are you doing this?" Han Xu sat on the ground and sighed, looking at the winding valley, "Go and find a place to hide. When these soldiers are defeated by the rebels, you may have a chance to survive.
....”
Zhongli suddenly jumped up and shouted: "Han Xu is here! Han Xu is here!"
Han Xu was stunned for a moment. Is it too late to hand him over to the enemy to surrender?
"There are reinforcements!" Nakazato shouted while holding a knife and pointing in one direction, "There are reinforcements."
Are there any reinforcements? Han Xu looked over and saw that beyond the dense crowd of soldiers and horses, there were still soldiers and horses, but in addition to the soldiers and horses, there were also some flags, fluttering in the night and firelight. It was too far away to make out the words...
Is he going to attract these reinforcements? Not to mention whether these reinforcements are reinforcements, Yu Fei's soldiers and horses who want to kill him will be attracted first...
Zhongli grabbed a knife and knelt half in front of Han Xu. He only looked at the fluttering flags and stood ready to protect Han Xu's life. His knife moved forward to take Han Xu's life. His knife moved backward.
But he will never retreat without orders.
The clang danced, and countless sword lights splashed.
The splashing sword light fell on Han Xu. The moment his consciousness and sight disappeared, he saw the flags floating towards this side and rushed towards them with shouts.
"Zhenwu Army kills the thieves!"
"Zhenwu Army kills the thieves!"
"Thieves, back off!"
"Thieves, back off!"
...
...
The flag was slashed with a knife, splitting the mountain wherever it went, the valley seemed to be flattened, the road was paved, and two horses came galloping with the light of night fire, their black robes fluttering in the night wind.
"Han Xu, are you dead?" Li Minglou asked, looking ahead.
