Qi Yuan was confused, but couldn't explain the reason. Could it be that he had this impulse just because he admired the name of the First Emperor in his previous life?
He thought for a while and said to Yang Chan: "Junior sister, please go out with me."
"……good!"
Yang Chan vaguely saw that he seemed to be worried, but since the senior brother didn't say anything, she didn't ask. Since the senior brother asked her to go out with him, it should be useful for her.
Qi Yuan was really worried, so he asked Yang Chan to go with him.
Although he didn't know where the feeling in his heart came from, after he ruled out the possibility of being plotted by someone, he decided to follow his heart and go over to see what was going on?
If you really encounter a strong enemy, having a junior sister to help you will be a big help.
With Yang Chan Taiyi Xuanxian's Taoist Royal Envoy's high-grade innate spiritual baby Lotus Lantern, even beings like Guangchengzi may not be able to defeat her, and even if they are slightly careless, they may be injured by her innate spiritual fire.
The two made a simple arrangement, and Qi Yuan specially summoned Qi Yi, asking him to take good care of Qi Lingyun and the others, and not let the two little girls sneak out while they were away.
After arranging everything, Qi and Yuan transformed into escaping light and flew directly towards the east.
…………
Handan, the capital of Zhao State.
As a big country that has been ruling the roost for a long time, the Zhao State is still very powerful. It has Lian Po, Zhao She, Lin Xiangru and other civil servants and generals, as well as the budding Li Mu. In terms of national strength, it can be called the leader of the Six Kingdoms of Guandong. On the battlefield
He won many victories and even once defeated the brave and proficient Qin State.
At this time, thirty miles away from the city, dozens of warriors riding horses and wearing leather armor were guarding a luxurious carriage, heading west.
In the carriage, sat a beautiful young woman with a plump figure, and a boy of more than ten years old.
The young woman looked to be in her twenties, with good looks, but she looked a little panicked. Even on the fast-moving carriage, she still looked back nervously, as if she was worried that someone would be chasing her from behind.
Compared to the young woman's nervousness, the young man seemed much calmer.
Perhaps because he had lived in a dangerous environment for many years, even though he was infected by some nervous emotions, he was still able to stabilize his mind and reassure his mother that there was no need to panic.
The group of guards outside tightly surrounded the carriage, and cautiously looked around from time to time.
As we got further and further away from the city, we didn't see anyone chasing us from behind, so the faces of these warriors looked a little better.
However, before they could breathe a sigh of relief, a shower of arrows suddenly shot out from the dense woods on both sides of the road. The group of warrior guards were caught off guard, and nearly half of them were damaged after several waves of arrows.
"Who dares to commit murder outside Handan City?"
The leader of the group of guards was a middle-aged man who was tall and possessed quite powerful martial arts skills. He suddenly drew out the sword from his waist and cut down several sharp arrows that were aimed at him. Then he dodged and jumped directly from his horse.
He jumped up into the air on his back, relying on his powerful martial arts skills, and actually rushed directly into the dense forest.
"ah……"
Several screams were heard, and this man actually killed many people one after another in an instant. His movements were clean and neat, and his attacks were merciless, and he quickly disrupted the formation of these archers.
"Zheng..."
There was a sound of weapons clashing, and the sword in the middle-aged man's hand was held up by a halberd, preventing him from continuing to kill.
The master holding the halberd was covered with black cloth, but under his wide black cloak, he was wearing a bronze armor.
"Who are you?"
When the middle-aged man holding the sword collided with the opponent's weapon, he had already noticed the opponent's power, so he did not take action immediately, but shouted: "This is the carriage of the Prince of Qin. If you dare to intercept it, you are not afraid of death."
?"
"snort!"
What he responded to was a vicious stab from the opponent.
Since these people dared to ambush here, they naturally knew the identity of the passengers in the carriage. They came here to kill the prince of Qin, and they would not be told to retreat with just a few words.
"Kill, leave no one behind!"
A cold voice came from another direction, and as soon as he finished speaking, two to three hundred masked men came out from the dense forest, each armed with sharp weapons and rushed out.
Facing the number of masked men several times their size, the guards guarding the carriage soon became unable to hold on any longer.
Seeing that someone was about to attack the carriage and kill the noble man, a guard beside the carriage suddenly struck hard, forcing the opponent back, and then stabbed the horse's buttocks with two swords, causing blood to flow from the horse's buttocks.
Note.
The two horses pulling the cart were in pain. They roared to the sky and ran forward with four hooves. After several guards tried their best to intercept them, they were actually rushed out of the encirclement by the carriage and ran away.
"Chase, don't let them run away!"
The cold voice sounded again, and at the same time, he snatched two long spears from the hands of the soldiers beside him, raised them up, and suddenly threw them towards the carriage.
Since the guards were entangled by men in black several times their size, they were unable to rescue them, so they could only watch as the spears stabbed the carriage.
There was a bang, just when the spear was about to pierce the carriage, the carriage jumped suddenly, but the wheels of the carriage ran over a branch that fell on the roadside, causing the carriage to tilt, allowing the spear to penetrate.
The direction is a little off.
Although it still penetrated the carriage, and even the strong force almost shook the entire carriage apart, the people inside were not harmed.
The two frightened horses did not stop at all, and continued to gallop forward.
"Damn it!"
A cold voice cursed secretly, and quickly ordered the people around him: "Quickly, bring the horses over and let me catch up. I can't let them return to Qin alive."
"yes!"
Immediately, more than a dozen people turned around and ran towards the depths of the dense forest. After a while, they led a group of tall horses. Except for some people who stayed to restrain the guards, the rest of the group got on their horses and chased them.
Those guards were insignificant to them, only the two people in the carriage were the most important.
However, after they finally caught up with the two frightened horses, the face of the leader in black suddenly changed.
He swung out his spear with all his strength and shattered the entire carriage, but it was empty with not a single person inside.
"Ran?"
The man in black sneered. In this wilderness, where could a woman and a ten-year-old child go without a horse?
"Search for me. If you find it, no matter whether you live or die, you will be rewarded heavily."
"yes."
All the subordinates turned their horses' heads one after another and scattered towards the way they came from, looking for traces of the mother and son's escape.
When Qi Yuan and Yang Chan arrived near Handan City, their consciousness swept away and they quickly discovered the fighting scene here.
They didn't pay attention to this at first. After all, there were too many fights between countries, and they couldn't control them even if they wanted to. As outsiders, what they dealt with the most were monsters and monsters. As for the fights between mortals,
Even heaven will not interfere.
However, when Qi Yuan's consciousness swept across the young man, he was startled.
He had a vague realization that this young man should be the Ying Zheng he was looking for.
Sure enough, the words of those people proved his guess.
Qi Yuan took Yang Chan's hand and came nearby.
Because he didn't know where the strange feeling in his heart came from, Qi Yuan did not intervene in the battle between the two sides. He wanted to see how things would develop and what would make him have the urge to come here.
.
So even when he saw the spear shooting at the carriage, he did not take action. Of course, the more important thing was that he could confirm that the spear would not hurt the lives of the people in the carriage.
Otherwise, he would definitely come to the rescue, and no matter what, he would not be able to watch Ying Zheng die here.
Then he watched from a distance as the young man jumped off the carriage with his mother midway and ran towards the depths of the jungle.
As the young man went deeper and deeper into the forest, the feeling in Qi Yuan's heart became more and more weird, and even his heartbeat became a little heavier.
After realizing his state, Qi Yuan frowned and felt more and more confused.
However, even if he released his spiritual consciousness and scanned it again and again, bringing everything within hundreds of miles within the scope of his spiritual consciousness, he still didn't notice anything that could threaten his existence, and he couldn't help but feel weird.
Yang Chan on the side also noticed that something was wrong with her senior brother. She also checked around, but also found nothing, so she had to be vigilant secretly to avoid being suddenly plotted against.
Below, the young man supported his mother and ran forward. After running for more than ten miles, they had entered the depths of the mountain forest. Both of them were panting from exhaustion.
Especially the plump woman, who originally came from a wealthy family, had never been so embarrassed. After running so far without stopping along the way, she was already so tired that her whole body became weak and she could no longer walk.
If it weren't for the young man's persistence and encouragement, as well as the shouts and shouts coming from behind from time to time, the young woman would have been so tired that she would have fallen to the ground.
At this time, it was getting late, and it was getting dark faster in the mountains and forests. The sun had just set, and it quickly fell into darkness.
Under the night, only the stars in the sky bring some light to this mountain forest.
"Zheng'er, mother can't walk anymore. Now that it's getting late, let's find a place to rest. Otherwise, before the pursuers catch up, any wild beast we encounter could kill us.
."
The young woman said weakly to the young man.
Ying Zheng looked back and saw no sign of pursuing troops, so he nodded in agreement.
Besides, he was very tired. If it weren't for his strong willpower, he would have stopped and rested long ago.
Then Starlight looked around, and he discovered that there was a huge cave under the cliff in front of him, and the sound of water flowing from the cave could be heard.
After running for so long, the mother and son were already hungry and thirsty, so they planned to see if there were any wild beasts living in the cave. If not, they would take shelter in the cave for the time being and drink some water to relieve their hunger.
