Chapter four hundred and sixty fifth attack in the wild
It is not safe in the North now, and Bai Ling did not dare to take everyone away for fear of a critical situation at home, and deliberately left two secret guards to protect his family.
Except for Haitang, they only brought a driver who knew kung fu, and Forsythia was left at home to take care of the Bai Liu family.
Along the way, he rode fast. In addition to instructing people in various places to purchase large quantities of medicinal materials and store things needed for people's livelihood, he also ordered his subordinates to pay close attention to whether there were any abnormal situations in the local area and how to deal with them.
Therefore, Bai Ling almost didn't waste much time, and the group would only rest at night.
There were not many times when I couldn't make it to the inn and slept in the wilderness.
"Master, quickly hide in the carriage." Haitang suddenly stood up and pulled Bai Ling towards the direction of the carriage.
However, before the master and servant could get close to the carriage, they were attacked by arrows from all sides.
Haitang and the coachman protected Bai Ling on the left and right, waving the long swords in their hands quickly to cut off the arrows.
The secret guard did not show up, and Bai Ling guessed that he was looking for the archer's location, or that he was in danger.
"You can't get on the carriage. If someone shoots a rocket, it will be even more dangerous." Bai Ling looked cold and stood beside the carriage. He raised his hand and cut off the reins to prevent the horse from running wildly and taking the carriage away.
"The secret guard should have found the archer. Master, stand here and don't move. We will protect the master." Haitang said to Bai Ling while blocking the arrow.
"Okay." Bai Ling also knew that unless he hid in space, he could only protect himself as much as possible so as not to increase the burden on Haitang and others.
The number and speed of the arrows were obviously not as fast as before, but the speed of Haitang and the driver also gradually slowed down.
Human strength is limited. If the hidden guards cannot kill the archers in time, their side will no longer be safe.
But Bai Ling didn't dare to hide in space rashly. She couldn't let anyone know this secret. She couldn't afford to gamble on human nature.
After about another stick of incense had passed, the coachman's leg was hit by an arrow. His movements were a beat slower. Haitang hurriedly moved closer to fill the gap.
"Drink this." Bai Ling crushed an antidote pill, threw it into the kettle, and gave it to the coachman.
The pot contains spiritual spring water, and with detoxification pills, the driver's life can be guaranteed.
The coachman didn't even bother to say thank you. He waved his sword with one hand and took the kettle with the other and drank it.
Bai Ling hurriedly squatted down, cut off half of the arrow with a dagger, sprinkled powder on the wound, bandaged it with a handkerchief, and then stood behind the two of them.
There were more than a dozen muffled sounds in the forest, which must have been the sound of someone falling to the ground, and there were only a few scattered arrows left.
Then there were no more arrows flying, but instead there was the sound of fighting with swords clashing.
"Get on the carriage first, your wound needs to be treated." After making sure that it was safe for the time being, Bai Ling supported the coachman and told Haitang: "You are on guard outside. Don't be soft when you encounter enemies. Just use poison and conserve your strength."
Haitang nodded and stepped back to escort Bai Ling and the two of them onto the carriage.
Although he had taken detoxification pills, the coachman's legs still changed color, and the blood flowing out was not bright red.
After pouring liquor to disinfect the wound and disinfecting the dagger, Bai Ling made a cross cut where the arrow had penetrated.
"If you bite this in your mouth, you will cry out if it hurts." He handed a medicine cloth to the coachman, and Bai Ling poured a bottle of hemostatic medicine on the medicine cloth and prepared to pull out the arrow.
Bai Ling had noticed before that arrows were very common and did not have barbs.
So after checking that the arrow had not hit an artery, Bai Ling was not afraid that the arrow would kill the coachman.
Holding down the coachman's leg with one hand and holding the arrow with the other, Bai Ling pulled out the short arrow with force and turned his face to avoid the blood spurting out.
Because the arrow was coated with poison, after Bai Ling pulled out the arrow, he squeezed out a lot of poisonous blood. Then he gave the coachman disinfectant, applied hemostatic medicine, and then bandaged it.
"You should rest as much as possible these days, and leave the driving of the car to... the secret guards." Bai Ling originally wanted Haitang to drive the car, but as soon as the words came out, he felt it was inappropriate, so he changed his words.
Bai Ling didn't think there was anything wrong with being in the same carriage with a man, but in this era, men and women were very guarded, so it was okay to have some concerns.
Besides, he didn't know if there would be an ambush in the future, so Bai Ling felt that keeping a secret guard by his side would provide better security.
After all, the coachman was injured, so it was good to be able to protect himself. It was too difficult for Haitang to take care of two people by herself.
"My subordinate's injury is not serious. He can drive the carriage." The coachman immediately refused. "The shaft of the carriage is wide enough. I can put one leg on the shaft of the carriage so that I won't waste time recovering from my injuries. The secret guard will still stay in the dark. If I really encounter
Danger can be solved faster."
Bai Ling thought for a while and then said: "When you get to the next place, you can stay and recuperate, and someone else can drive the car."
This time the coachman did not refuse, fearing that he would delay his master's efforts, and even more afraid that he would not be able to protect his master.
"Master, the secret guard has returned." Haitang's voice sounded.
"I'll come out soon." He asked the coachman to rest in the carriage first. After Bai Ling got off the carriage, he saw that there was only one secret guard, so he asked, "Are any of our people injured?"
"A slight injury." The secret guard replied truthfully.
"Haitang, take the medicine box with you and go help treat the wounds first. Give each person some golden sore medicine and detoxifying pills." After Bai Ling finished her instructions, she motioned to the secret guard to follow her to the fire to talk.
Without Bai Ling asking, the secret guard replied: "The person ambushing is a junior soldier, and there are no marks on his body."
"Elementary?" Although Bai Ling accidentally hired a dead soldier to kill her, she didn't understand the meaning of a junior dead soldier.
"The training time for these dead soldiers is short, and their qualifications are the most mediocre among the dead soldiers. If the opponent sends high-level dead soldiers, it will be difficult for us to solve them in a short time." The secret guard replied.
Bai Ling nodded, handed out a bottle of corpse-transforming water to the secret guard, and ordered: "Since we can't find out, let's dissolve all the corpses. You will go to Haitang to get some poison later. If you encounter a crisis, there is no need to apply.
Try not to get any of your own people injured and destroy the other team."
The secret guard accepted the corpse-transforming water, saw Haitang approaching, and then jumped away.
Sitting by the fire, Bai Ling was thinking about who wanted to assassinate her.
Now even the third prince wants to bring her into the palace instead of killing her.
Whose eyes are your presence in the eyes of?
Is he the person behind the poisonous people?
"Haitang, tomorrow you will continue on your way as originally planned. I will go to Zixiao City alone to meet up with the Crown Prince." Bai Ling suddenly spoke. When Haitang was about to speak, he interrupted her and said, "If I go on the road alone, it will be more difficult for me."
Safe. You and your group have big goals, so you can attract those people to me. In addition, you have no scruples and can escape faster."
"But..." Haitang was worried, but Bai Ling waved her hand.
"This is an order, just obey it." After Bai Ling finished speaking, he pursed his lips.
Watching the crackling sound of the burning wood, the cremation flew away and then disappeared quickly, just like gorgeous fireworks, beautiful but short-lived.
Knowing that Haitang was worried about his own safety, Bai Ling said softly: "It's best if you can find out the person behind the scenes by following the clues. If you can't, don't force it. Your safety is the most important. Even if you find it, don't act rashly. Let's wait until everything comes together.
.”
Haitang knew that she couldn't make Bai Ling change her mind, so she had no choice but to nod in agreement. (To be continued)
