The shouts and attacks of hundreds of people suddenly came, and the bandits in the valley were obviously shocked. When Chen Xu finally rushed in, there were already seven or eight bandits lying on the snow at the entrance of the valley, and blood was still dripping. The snow was red. Bai Zhen and Zhou Bo, who had entered the valley in advance, and the imperial guards, had already begun to strangle the bandits. The Hulu Valley, which was only half a mile in size, were full of bandits running, fleeing or fighting back.

There is a natural cave in the valley and more than a dozen shacks made of wood branches and thatch. There is indeed a small path at the end of the valley. Many bandits who emerged in a hurry from the cave shacks were desperately fleeing towards the path.

"Boom~" Chen Xu pulled the trigger and threw a bandit ten feet away to the ground.

"Open the fire, don't let go of any one!" Chen Xu yelled.

"Boom~ Boom~" The group of teenagers who followed raised their muskets and began to shoot at the bandits running around. In the thick flames and the blue smoke, one after another, the bandits screamed and fell on the snow. The guards and the imperial guards who were chasing each other fell without any mercy. The bandits who were wailing on the ground were all different from their heads, and blood splattered red large areas of snow.

"Don't leave Ji Bu~"

Bai Zhen held a steel knife in his hand and rushed over seven or eight bandits like a tiger, then rushed to the path. Following the fleeing bandits, the light crossbows in the hands of a group of imperial guards continued to spread. The bandits squeezed on the path screamed one by one and rolled down into the snow-covered thorns.

"Escape quickly, the Queen of Qinghe is here!"

Under the attacks of hundreds of imperial guards and police lieutenants, the bandits quickly collapsed like a devastating dog, like a frightened dog shouting in a hurry. In the crowd, a handsome and burly man carrying a long sword had already penetrated into the path under the arms of a group of bandits. The branches swayed and the snow fell all over the sky, and disappeared into the woods in the blink of an eye.

"Zhou Bo, catch up with Ji Bu!" Chen Xu ran away and shouted at Zhou Bo, who was still fighting with the bandits.

"Qianniu Guards follow me to chase~" Zhou Bo roared and turned around and roared with blood on his face, leading a group of Qianniu Guards into the path. Bai Zhen also roared a few times, and rushed into the woods with hundreds of imperial guards. The branches swayed and a few roars and screams came from the avalanches. The sound quickly went away. "Huh, I'm so tired!" Chen Xu bent down and held his knees, looked up at the direction where Ji Bu, Bai Zhen and others disappeared and gasped hard.

Damn, these bandits are simply wild dogs. They are only half a mile from the entrance of the valley to here, but the ground is covered with snow that is deep as thighs, and the thorny and dead grass buried in the snow. Chasing and running inside is like stepping on a quagmire. After a short sprint, Chen Xu felt like a bellows were pulling in his body, and the cold air stimulated his lungs to hurt.

"My husband, don't be anxious. There are imperial guards chasing him, and there are senior brothers lying in the valley on the side. Ji Bu must not be able to escape!" Shui Qingrou supported Chen Xu and helped him wipe his sweat and comfort him.

The fighting in the valley soon calmed down. Dozens of corpses were lodged in the messy snow, almost all of which were bandits. The imperial guards and the Holmon Mountains who followed the bandits to suppress the bandits were almost intact. Only a few were slightly injured in the bandits' counterattack, but they all seemed to be fine.

"The so-called ranger is nothing more than a lie!" Xia Zijin, who was guarding Chen Xu with Shui Qingrou from beginning to end, had never even pulled out the sword at this time. He looked at the corpses and blood on the ground and hummed disdainfully.

Chen Xu couldn't help but smile bitterly.

These so-called rangers are just a group of gangsters who love to dance guns and sticks. Perhaps one-on-one imperial guards may not be able to win, but together they are just a group of mobs. How can they be compared with well-trained imperial guards, let alone Qianniu Guards, which are directly under the imperial palace.

Moreover, there was a surprise attack today, and these bandits would never have thought that the imperial guards would come to kill them in such heavy snow-covered weather. Almost all of them were still hiding in cave huts and burning to sleep.

Under the combination of various factors, these bandits could only die inexplicably.

"Marty, all the bandits in the valley were killed, and a total of 82 bodies were obtained. We injured twelve people and did not die!" An imperial guard leader came to report with heat all over his body.

"Search for the wooden houses around to see if there are any hidden people, leave the police lieutenant of Xi County to clean the battlefield, and the rest follow Commander Bai to pursue the bandits!" Chen Xu straightened his waist and ordered.

"Here~" The leader of the imperial guards took the order and soon most of the imperial guards and hunters rushed into the forest along the path. The county magistrate and county magistrate of Xi County directed the lieutenant soldiers to start cleaning up the wooden houses and corpses in the valley. After Chen Xu rested for a few minutes, he also led the guards and the boy into the forest with Shui Qingrang and Xia Zijin.

This path may be the usual route for woodcutters and hunters who chop wood in the mountains. The road is very narrow and very rugged and steep. In addition, the snow was trampled by hundreds of people chasing ahead and the ice and snow melted, making it extremely slippery. Listening to the killing shouts and screams in front of him, he had spread to the mountainside, and Chen Xu rushed to the foot of the mountain. A group of guards wrapped Chen Xu in the middle and almost pushed him forward.

On the path and in the woods on both sides, you can see a corpse of a bandit every few feet. Without exception, these bandits were all dressed in tattered clothes and disheveled hair, looking like savages. They have been hiding in this wilderness for more than a year and seemingly living a miserable life.

Half an hour later, Chen Xu finally climbed up the ridge, but he was already tired at this time. He hugged a big pine tree and kept breathing, and the sound of chasing ahead had reached the valley on the other side.

"Husband, don't chase after you. Ji Bu will be captured and killed by his senior brother soon!" Shui Qingrou helped Chen Xu with distress and kept touching his spine.

Xia Zijin curled his lips and said, "You are still a disciple of the Immortal Family, not even as good as a child. You are so tired after leaving less than an hour. Sister Shui is afraid she will not be able to enjoy the blessings of following you!"

Shui Qingrou's cheeks flushed in an instant, but Chen Xu stood up with a shock, gritted his teeth and walked along the path, saying, "I am just not used to climbing mountains. I will definitely practice inner breath and sword skills when I go back this time. You should still be pity for Brother Yu on weekdays. I see that he has lost a lot recently and his beard has grown!"

"Puchi~" Shui Qingrou couldn't help but tremble with her delicate body covering her mouth and laughing.

"Spit~" Xia Zijin also spat in an instant with a blushing cheek, and then flew into the path in a few steps. A faint voice drifted with the wind, "Sister Shui takes care of the Marquis, I'll help that idiot, so that I won't be in vain this time!"

"Husband, how could you make such a joke with Sister Zijin? She is thin-skinned!" Shui Qingrou supported Chen Xu and said while walking.

"Hehe, is she thin-skinned? Why didn't I notice that Brother Yu enjoys it every day?" Chen Xu laughed dryly, hugged Shui Qingrou's belt, and a group of guards and boys quickly went down the steep and rugged mountain road. But after a while, with a grip of grass, Chen Xu stepped on the air and rolled down the hillside.

In the valley, a handsome, burly man with a distorted face ran wildly among the snow in the mountains and forests with more than ten bandits. However, due to the thick snow and the blockage of thorns and dead grass and trees, he looked embarrassed. After only a few dozen feet behind him, Zhou Bo, who was covered in blood, kept roaring and chasing like a hungry tiger. Twenty Qianniu Guards followed him, all of whom were chasing their mouths and noses, and their faces were pale. Behind Qianniu Guards, hundreds of imperial guards were spreading in the woods like a black tide. Killing shouts shook the valley, and a large amount of snow fell from the cliffs and trees, and with the sharp cold wind, a stream of snow fog was rolling up.

"Quick, you can leave after rushing out of the valley!" Seeing the entrance of the valley approaching, Ji Bu yelled, and a group of bandits accelerated.

"Boom~"

Suddenly, the thorns at the entrance of the valley swayed, and a man in black jumped out of the snow. The musket in his hand spewed out a fire and smoke. A bandit beside Ji Bu screamed and fell on the snow.

As the musket sounded, more than a hundred imperial guards in black armor emerged from the snow one after another, raising the light crossbow in their hands. With a few bangs, sharp arrows cut through the cold air, and several bandits screamed and fell down.

"Ji Bu, today is your death. You won't kneel down and surrender!" The man in black choked and pulled out the sword behind him.

"Brother Ji, we have no way out!" A bandit wailed in horror.

"Die it all the time and kill it!" Ji Bu pulled out the long sword from his waist and roared and rushed towards Yu Wuya with great strides.

"I don't know how to live or die!" Yu Wuya spat out a grass stem in his mouth, and swept forward with a sword and stepped out a distance of nearly a few feet.

"Puff~" A tall and strong boy behind Ji Bu suddenly stabbed Ji Bu's back with a sword.

"You...you...why...kill me..." Ji Bu turned around and looked at the boy in disbelief. As a few words were spitting out of his mouth and nose, blood was pouring out of his mouth and nose.

"Puff~" The burly boy pulled out his sword and slashed it horizontally again. Ji Bu flew out with a dull expression and smashed it into the snow. He felt a burst of blood in his neck sprayed more than 100 feet high. The headless corpse stood for half a minute before kneeling down and tilting it. The dripping blood splattered several feet in a radius, and it looked extremely dazzling and bloody in the snowy canyon.

"Brother Ji is dead, run away~" The remaining bandits were stunned for a short time and fled in fear.

"Kill, no one left!" Yu Wuya roared and quickly caught up with a bandit and broke it to the ground. The remaining seven or eight bandits soon fell into a scream with a loud bang. Then they were stabbed to death by Zhou Bo and Qianniuwei who were chasing him with swords and cut off their heads.

The ambush was easily completed, and all the imperial guards who were chasing and blocking each other were surrounded, surrounding a burly boy.

"Hehe, I didn't expect Ji Bu, who is famous all over the world, would die at the hands of a young man, and he was fighting in the nest. Tsk, where is your chivalrous hero?" Yu Wuya didn't recognize the young man, and thought it was the young man who killed Ji Bu for his life.

The burly boy's body trembled slightly as he looked at the imperial guards surrounded by densely surrounded by crowds, and threw down the sword in his hand and said, "I'm not from their group!"

"Wow, your thick-skinned face is almost the same as my benefactor, and you can say such words!" Yu Wuya was shocked.

"The incident of Ji Bu's ambushing the Marquis of Qinghe has nothing to do with me. I don't change my surname or name, but..."

"Okay, okay, since you have killed Ji Bu, I naturally can't kill you. When my benefactor arrives, whether you die or live depends on your luck, tie him up!" Yu Wuya waved his hand and interrupted the young man's words. Several imperial guards rushed to the top to press the burly young man into the snow, tied his hands firmly with a belt.

"Hold the grass... I'm so tired!"

Chen Xu's head and snow were covered in snow, and with the help of a group of guards, he finally caught up after twenty minutes, but what he saw in front of him was a calming scene.

"My benefactor, Ji Bu has been hacked to death by one of his subordinates!" Yu Wuya jumped and jumped to Chen Xu and grinned.

"I was killed by my own people!" Chen Xu was stunned for a moment and walked in from the separated imperial guards and saw a burly boy dressed in worn clothes and messy hair sitting in the snow with his hands tied up.

"Is it you?" Xiang Yu looked at Chen Xu in surprise and his face was dull.

Chen Xu was also stunned for a long time and waved his hand to Bai Zhen and Zhou Bo: "Let everyone retreat a hundred feet. I have something to ask this person alone!"

"Here~" Bai Zhen and Zhou Bo each turned around and roared a few times. All the imperial guards, Qianniu Guards and the followers of the Hound Mountains quickly dispersed and retreated a hundred feet. Only Shui Qingrou was left beside Chen Xu, Yu Wuya and Xia Zijin, and even all the guards and young men retreated.

"You... are you really Chen Xu, the famous immortal disciple of Qinghe Hou?" Xiang Yu didn't know what Chen Xu was going to do, and murmured after staying for a long time.

"Yes, it's Chen Xu, Hou Qinghe, Xiang Yu, and Wuzhong for more than a year. I didn't expect to meet you in such a place!" Chen Xu nodded with a little emotion.

"If I had known this, I wouldn't have hit you, and I wouldn't have caused such a huge disaster for Xiang!" Xiang Yu struggled to stand up, his hair was messy and covered in snow and mud, and there was an indescribable melancholy and sadness on his face.

"You are wrong. Even without me, your Xiang family will still rebel. The appearance of someone just aroused your Xiang family's ambition in advance!" Chen Xu shook his head.

"Qinghe Marquis, my Xiang family has disappeared now, and all the uncles and brothers in the clan are dead. No matter what kind of hatred I have with you, you don't have to take it seriously in the future. Today I killed Ji Bu not to ask you to let me go, but to tell you that I, Xiang Ji, is not a person who is afraid of death, nor is he hated you to the core. I should have died after losing that bet. Today I died at your hands, so I have no regrets!" Xiang Yu said in confusion.

"I asked you something, did you really come to stop the Ji brothers from killing me?" Chen Xu asked.

"So you saw Xiang Jing, my sister of my clan? Where is she now? Have you been killed by you?" Xiang Yu glared at Chen Xu.

"No, I haven't seen your clan girl in Langya. I know that this happened because some other things happened. The process was very tortuous. I just want to know what your original intention is. Do you really want to stop the Ji brothers from killing me?" Chen Xu shook his head and stared at Xiang Yu and said.

Xiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief and said bitterly: "What's the point of saying this now? Whether I'm blocking or not, the ambush has already happened. Jiang Heng's niece was ambushed and died. I heard that you were poisoned and almost died. Since you already know about this, please spare my sister's life. This matter is considered to be settled. In short, she was still kind-hearted from beginning to end!"

"What I want to tell you is that I have not seen your clan girl Xiang Jing. I want to spare her, and you can do nothing. You should talk about the causes and consequences. Now, you should already know that the Xiang family's rebellion has been destroyed. It has nothing to do with me. Everything is the fate of your Xiang family's own fault. If you really come to stop the Ji brothers from killing me, then I can let you go!"

"You...don't you kill me?" Xiang Yu suddenly raised his head and looked at Chen Xu.

"Killing you is easy for me, but I am not the one who is kind to repay the grudges. You came to stop the Ji brothers from ambushing me. Although you did not succeed, you did do this. Moreover, God's will is difficult to violate, and some things are not something you can stop. Now, Xiang Jing, a girl from your clan, is in danger because she wants to remind me. This is what I am not wanting to see!" Chen Xu nodded.

"What is the danger of Er Niang? Where is she now?" Xiang Yu asked anxiously.

"You should answer this marquis' question first. If you can satisfy this marquis, you will naturally let you find your clan girl!" Chen Xu shook his head.

"On the same day... After the conflict with you in Wuzhong, the clan girl suddenly came to me with a very ugly face and asked me if I knew the Ji brothers. I guessed that it was Ji Xin and Ji Bu from Guanzhong. But after asking again, the clan girl was unwilling to explain in detail. After the marquis left Wuzhong, the clan girl invited me to go back to the court, and then followed the marquis to Langya County to tell my uncle that he wanted to contact the Ji brothers to assassinate you. At that time, I felt that this matter would not be successful, so I broke up with the clan girl. The clan girl went to Langya to find out your true identity, and I followed Zhonglimei to Guanzhong to stop this matter. But after seeing the Ji brothers, Zhonglimei happened to be there, so I started arguing with them. Ji Bu took action to stop me and arranged the ambush. I was not very clear about the subsequent matter. At the end of July, Ji Bu stayed there.

People in Guanzhong found out that you were poisoned and had already been killed in the morning. Zhonglimei returned to Wuzhong alone to tell the uncles in the clan to rebel, and I was left by Ji Bu to take care of him. According to the strategy discussed by Ji Bu and Zhonglimei, he would also raise troops near Guanzhong after my uncle started to rise up in Wuzhong. However, he did not expect that shortly after Zhonglimei left, news came again. It turned out that the marquis was not dead, so Ji Bu did not dare to rebel. Instead, he hid in the Funiu Mountain with me and a group of people. Because he had no food and clothing on weekdays, he could only rely on robbing some caravans and civilians on Wuguan Road. He had been hiding like this for more than a year. Ji Bu originally wanted to wait until the situation outside calmed down before trying to escape, but he didn't expect that you would find a hiding place..."

Xiang Yu briefly explained the causes and consequences, and finally looked at Chen Xu and said, "I can't interfere in the matter arranged by the uncles in the clan, but you were wrong. If it weren't for Zhonglimei and the brothers of Ji, the uncles in my clan would definitely not have rebelled, and would not have ended up as they are now. I killed Ji Bu, just hated them for bewitching my uncles and uncles without knowing the time. Now that the brothers of Ji are all dead, my Xiang family has been destroyed. Whether you forgive me or not, there is no place for me to live in the world, you...you should give me some fun!"

Chen Xu looked at Xiang Yu speechlessly.

He actually attributed all the mistakes to the brothers Zhonglimei and Ji.

However, after thinking about it carefully, this incident was indeed related to Zhong Limei's bewitching. If these heroes from the world were not supported by the help of these heroes, the Xiang family would not have risen up in a hurry and rash manner.

Although it began to sweep across the three counties and counties, tens of thousands of rebels gathered, Qin Dada was still roaming his country everywhere. As long as Qin Dada was alive for one day, no one could jump around, because in addition to the 70,000 new elite pawns in the northwest, there were 200,000 troops in the south of the Five Ridges, and nearly 300,000 lieutenants were stationed in the counties across the country. Now there are more than 100,000 police officers. These state machines cover the entire Qin Dynasty like sharp claws in Qin Dada's hands, and any person rebelled would be dead.

But no matter what, the Xiang family has completely collapsed and will never have any chance to successfully enter Xianyang and kill all the royal families. Even if Xiang Yu is alive, after this round of crackdown, other heroes and heroes in the country who still have other thoughts will definitely disappear. If they want to rebel again, they will no longer have the foundation and soil.

"I once offered a reward of 100,000 yuan in the newspaper to kill Ji Bu. Now that Ji Bu is dead in your hands, I can't break my promise and become fat..." Chen Xu ordered Yu Wuya to untie the belt tied to Xiang Yu's hand.

"Even if you don't kill me, where can I go?" Xiang Yu Yangtian sighed, his face extremely sad, and his expression was completely different from what he saw in Wuzhong.

A huge and prosperous family that was rampant in Wuzhong collapsed in just one year. Even those who were heartless could not bear this blow.

"Your clan's sister Xiang Jing was kidnapped by a group of alchemists and motuos in Langya. This was what I heard when I went to Langya to save my wife. They spent more than a month together on a deserted island more than a hundred miles away from Langya. She told my wife the news that Zhonglimei and Ji's family Kunzhong wanted to kill me. Therefore, I only learned about this after I saved my wife. Although she had never told me in person, she still saved my life. If it weren't for her news that she had fallen into my ears in time, I would have been ambushed by the Ji brothers last time at Hangu Pass. If this marquis died, your Xiang family would destroy the clan regardless of whether they revolt or not, and the Ji family who participated in the ambush would also die..."

"So, you should be glad that I have survived. There is no place for you to stand in the Central Plains. If you don't want to live your life in vain, I can arrange someone to take you to the East China Sea to leave the Central Plains by boat. At the same time, I hope you can find your clan's sister Xiang Jing and say thank you to her on my behalf. I am actually very grateful for everything she has done!"

"If you don't kill me, I hope you won't regret it in the future!" Xiang Yu nodded, bent down and picked up his long sword and prepared to leave.

"Slow down!" Chen Xu spoke.
To be continued...
