EBE Chapter 639: Escape from Jinyang City
Chapter 639: Escape from Jinyang City
The sound of horse hooves was heard again not far away.
Although the hoofbeats were rapid, they were not as violent as the sound of the wind and rain when Cheng Huang was running just now. It should be just an ordinary warhorse from Jinyang City.
A man on the horse shouted loudly: "General Xuan, General Xuan... Jieyun Pass has been broken by the Red Army, please send more troops to stop them!" The man was Zhou Tenghu, who had been sent to Jieyun Pass not long ago to assist Jin Wei Jiang Gupu in guarding the pass.
When Jin Li'er, Jin Tiankai and others heard the news, they were stunned with shock.
The Red Soldiers were known to be fierce. Once they passed the Jieyun Pass, the strongest point in Jinyang City, they would march straight into Jinyang City. If Jinyang City only relied on its own strength to resist the enemy, the final result would be exactly the same as that of Bicheng, or even worse than that of Bicheng.
Zhou Tenghu shouted this sentence with the Force, and everyone present heard it clearly. Jinyang City was in chaos.
Golden Blade and Black Sword raised their eyebrows and shouted, "Kill the evil demons first, then fight the red soldiers. Don't lose your composure!"
When the soldiers heard the order from the Venerable, they shouted and charged towards Chu Xiaomu and the other two.
Fortunately, Chu Xiaomu and the other two were standing high on the pile of rocks of the collapsed Qingyang Hall, and it was not easy for those with poor Force martial arts skills to get up there.
Qi Changshu and Zhao Xiantong were proud of their status, and seeing Xuanying standing still, they did not follow the messy bronze-armored soldiers forward.
Chu Xiaomu turned around and said to Jinglan and Xiaoying: "Jinglan, Xiaoying, let's rush out and return to Bicheng!"
The two girls nodded in unison and said, "Xiao Mu, we will listen to you."
Chu Xiaomu said no more, turned his horse's head, pulled the reins, and galloped towards the side with fewer people. Although he was in a pile of rocks, Cheng Huang was still running fast. Jinglan and Xiaoying followed closely behind on their zebras.
The soldiers of Jinyang City shouted loudly, but how could they catch up with Chenghuang and Longban who were running at lightning speed?
The three rushed out of the gate of Tiankun Castle, and then rushed out of the south gate of Jinyang City and the Ten-Arch Bridge. In less than an hour, they had run more than 300 miles, and Bailaji was not far ahead.
Although the zebra was majestic, it was not as fast as the yellow horse. It was already panting and could not keep up with the horse. The three of them had no choice but to find a secluded place to rest the horses.
Jinglan said, "Brother Xiaomu, is your injury okay?"
Chu Xiaomu said: "The injury is not too serious, it's not a problem."
Xiaoying said tearfully, "It's all my fault. I didn't expect that Huangwu Baoguan was so shameless!"
Chu Xiaomu forced a smile and comforted her: "How can you be blamed for this? No one expected him to attack in the dark."
Jinglan said: "Master said that the most unpredictable thing in this world is the human heart. The evil of the human heart is even worse than that of evil spirits. Brother Xiaomu, you must be careful and attentive in your future actions..."
Chu Xiaomu nodded, thinking, "How could I not know that human hearts are unpredictable? Grandpa and I treated the Snow Countryman Bai Yixing sincerely, but I didn't expect him to repay kindness with hatred. I'm afraid most evil spirits can't do such evil things. But it's not possible to prevent all the evil people in this world. And how can we tell whether the evil person is good or evil before he does evil things?
The three of them waited for the horses to rest for a while before continuing their journey. Jinglan suggested waiting for Li Xi and his guards here. Li Xi had made an appointment with her a few days ago, saying that she would take care of him on the way back to Bicheng.
Chu Xiaomu and Xiaoying naturally agreed, but they were very worried as they didn't know whether Li Xi and the others would be trapped in Jinyang City by the golden sword and black sword.
Jinglan said, "We can wait here for one day at most. If Uncle Li and the others don't come, we'll leave first."
Chu Xiaomu thought that this was the right thing to do, so he took advantage of this free time to find a clean piece of grass and sit on it to practice his skills and heal his wounds. After waiting for about two hours, the sound of hooves of several horses could be heard on the official road, running very fast.
The three of them walked to the side of the road and looked around. Sure enough, it was Li Xian and his group of five. They waved their hands to stop them.
Li Xian and the others dismounted and were very happy to see that the three people were safe and sound. However, they were even more surprised to see that Chu Xiaomu was stabbed by Huang Wu Baoguan but was still energetic, as if he was not injured at all.
I thought that Xiaomu's skills were something that even a general couldn't match. Could it be that he was really another extraordinary person after Shenwu Bumie? For a moment, I felt a mixture of emotions.
Chu Xiaomu asked, "Li Zhongjun, after the three of us escaped, didn't Golden Blade and Black Sword make things difficult for you? From what he said, it seemed like he was going to arrest you all."
Li Qi said: "I guess the Golden Blade and Black Sword will not let us go easily. They, the Golden Blade Sect, do intend to take prisoners and hold the other six cities hostage."
After a pause, he continued, "When I saw you had escaped successfully, I immediately gathered the four brothers, took back the general's Dragon Spine Sword, and rushed directly to the south gate of Jinyang City. The soldiers guarding the gate must have received the order from the Golden Sword and Black Sword not to let other citizens out of the city, and the inspection was very strict. Fortunately, Jin Li'er arrived in time and took a lot of effort to send us out, so we were one or two hours late and kept you waiting for a long time."
Chu Xiaomu said: "It's good that we can escape. It doesn't matter if we are one or two hours late."
Seeing that Chu Xiaomu's clothes were already tattered, Li Qi asked a guard to find a blue cloth robe for him to change into.
Chu Xiaomu thanked Li Qi for the gift of clothes and said, "Fortunately, Jin Li'er is not a bad person, otherwise it would be very difficult for us to escape so easily."
Li Qi nodded and said, "It is beyond doubt that the Golden Blade and the Black Sword are colluding with the Red Sand Nation. Jin Lier took it upon himself to invite people from our six cities to Jinyang City, thinking that the Golden Blade and the Black Sword didn't know. I'm afraid he has played along with us! He decided to use this conference to hold us hostage."
Jinglan also said: "I guess so. It is impossible for the Golden Blade and Black Sword to remain indifferent to this matter."
Chu Xiaomu couldn't help but feel frightened when he thought that the Golden Blade and Black Sword had such deep and vicious intentions.
