Chapter 280 Escape
In the darkness, Li Xuan walked quickly in the alley with the little girl on his back. Every time he walked a long way, he would stop and listen to the nearby shouts of killing and horse hooves, and quietly distinguish the safe direction.
He stood in the dim alley, gasping heavily while looking around at the roof, trying to find traces of Chenzhi.
After three days of besieging the city, Li Xuan could only drink clear porridge. Today, he killed from noon to night and Xu, and even the iron-killed person could not bear it.
Li Xuan glanced at the elm tree beside him and couldn't help but peel off a piece of dry bark from the trunk, imagining that it was a piece of beef jerky stuffed into his mouth and chewed.
The bark is particularly bitter, and no matter how hard he chews it hard, it will be difficult to bite the bark.
The refugee behind him saw that he was embarrassed and said carefully: "Official, the bark of elm trees must be ground into noodles before you can eat it... Have you not eaten for a few days?"
Li Xuan forced himself to swallow the unbittered bark and explained casually: "I'm either hungry or I haven't eaten it before, so I want to taste it."
The little girl on his back suddenly put her hand to his mouth: "Master, I'll give you food."
Li Xuan was stunned and looked down and saw the two shriveled sand dates in the little girl's hand: "You..."
The little girl whispered, "My mother gave it to me, I was so hungry that I couldn't stand it, so I secretly ate one."
Li Xuan stuffed another bite of elm bark and said with a smile: "You can keep it and eat it."
But the little girl stuffed the sand dates into his mouth regardless of the matter: "I have two more."
Li Xuan chewed the sand dates in his mouth and silently looked at the narrow night sky above the alley, not knowing what he was thinking.
A refugee tentatively said, "Official, where is your colleague just now? If he could be together... we have no other intentions, it's just that we have worked so hard."
Li Xuan's eyes swept over the nearby empty roof again, and after a long time he said, "He should have something important to do."
At this time, a team of iron cavalry of the Tiance Army whistled past. They tied a border army's ankle with an iron rope and dragged it to death.
Everyone in the alley covered their mouths in horror, and their bodies shrank back for fear of being discovered by the Tiance army outside.
When Tiance Army left, Li Xuan set out to continue to intersperse to the north, trying to meet with his colleagues from the Yulin Army.
Above a pavilion, the Tiance Swordsman leaned against the shadow of the second floor eaves, silently rubbed the hard bow in his hand, and looked down at his colleagues searching for the room.
The sharpshooter's ears suddenly moved, as if he heard a faint coughing sound.
He left the wall and stood up straight. He reached into the arrow bag with his right hand and silently took out a whistle arrow.
The next moment, Li Xuan led the refugees out of the alley and wanted to cross Baosi Street.
The Tiance Army's sharp archer bent his bow and arrow like a thunder. With a bang, the thick and flexible bowstring collapsed and made a terrifying sound. The whistle arrow made a sharp sound and headed straight behind Li Xuan, trying to pierce Li Xuan and the little girl behind him with one arrow.
A sudden change occurred, an iron-tired arrow shot from the darkness, smashing the whistle arrow that had just left the string in the air, and the scream stopped abruptly!
The Tiance Army's sharpshooter was shocked and suddenly pulled out another whistle arrow from the arrow pouch. He didn't even look at it, and subconsciously bent his bow and shot at the arrow wherever he came from!
It's too late.
He had just let go of the bowstring, and an iron tire arrow had arrived in front of him. The iron tire arrow smashed it against the whistle arrow, and then passed through his throat and nailed it to the wall behind him.
The arrow tail feathers were covered in blood and kept trembling.
Li Xuan turned around and looked at the tower, and saw Chen Ji gently flipping over the jammer and pulling away the arrow bag on the archer's body.
Chen Ji pointed silently on the tower.
Li Xuan immediately understood and ran north with the little girl on his back.
At the same time, the nearby Tiance army heard two whistle arrows and stood on their horses, ready to follow the new guidance, but the sound of the whistle arrows was too short this time, and I don’t know what happened for a moment and where it was shooting.
The cavalry of the Tiance army looked at each other. Before they could speak, a whistle arrow flew from west to east, and then they rode their horses to chase after them.
When he arrived at the place where the arrow fell, a cavalry of the Tiance Army frowned and looked at the arrow nailed to the wall, and then looked around the empty streets: "Why did the sharpshooter guide me to come here? There is nothing here."
A soldier wearing a black pheasant-tailed helmet said coldly: "Someone killed the sharpshooter and took the sharpshooter's bow! Go back!"
After saying that, he tightened the reins and turned his horse's head, carried the horse's spear backwards, and rushed to the place where the arrows first rang out.
Before Li Xuan could run far, he heard the sound of iron hooves, getting closer and closer, and getting more and more anxious!
It's bad, the Tiance Army reacted too quickly and had seen through Chen Ji's methods. Once the Tiance Army's cavalry arrived, the refugees around them would undoubtedly die!
He suddenly turned around and looked at Chen Ji on the platform, but saw that the other party was also extremely solemn.
Chen Ji hesitated for a long time and finally pulled out a whistle arrow from his arrow pouch and shot it into the sky!
Li Xuan was suddenly stunned, and then watched Chen Ji jump off the platform and ran in the opposite direction of his on the roof. Immediately afterwards, another whistle arrow shot into the sky, guiding the direction for the Tiance Army.
He heard Chen Ji use whistle arrows to lead the Tiance Army further and further away, and his heart was filled with emotions for a moment.
...
...
breathe.
Even breathing is the key to balance the body.
When Chen Ji heard the iron cavalry of the Tiance Army getting closer and closer, he pulled out an arrow from his waist's arrow pouch, and kept pulling the bowstring without turning his head back and shooting an arrow behind him.
The bow string vibrated, and the whistle arrow pierced the Tiance Army soldiers with a sharp roar, and took them off the horse.
Chen Ji pulled out another arrow and shot it away. Another Tiance army soldier fell from a war horse, and the armor made a roar when he came into contact with the ground.
One arrow, one life, but not only did the iron cavalry that surrounded him, but also increased.
Just as Chen Ji shot another arrow, an arrow shot from the cold place, and sneaked into him in a distracted moment.
In another darkness, another sharpshooter released cold arrows through dozens of steps, one, two, three, and three iron-tired arrows in a row locked Chen Ji's way.
The sharpshooters hidden in the dark watched the arrows get closer and closer to Chen Ji, but Chen Ji still had no intention of avoiding the arrows.
Just when they thought Chen Ji would die, they saw the arrows approaching Chen Ji burst out into wood chips in the sky, and were smashed into pieces by invisible weapon.
The two sharpshooters narrowed their eyes slightly, and no one could see clearly what was going on.
Chen Ji looked coldly in the direction of one of them, and turned his hand and used an arrow to fight back. The sharpshooter hiding in the dark changed his expression when he saw him pulling the bowstrings, and flew to one side to avoid him.
With a sound of Dou, the sharpshooter pounced in the air, looking back at where he was just now, where an iron tire arrow was trembling continuously.
If I was a little slower just now, I was probably nailed to the wall.
laugh!
An iron-tired arrow nailed him with a difficult force and hit him hard against the wall. Two arrows, killing a sharpshooter only requires two arrows.
Another sharpshooter was shocked when he saw his colleague's death, and quietly retreated into the darkness, shooting three whistle arrows in the direction where Chen Ji escaped.
This is not someone they can kill, so more people have to be called!
When Chen Ji escaped, he felt that the nearby Tiance army surrounded him from all directions, like a pot of porridge gradually boiling into porridge, becoming thicker and thicker. Fortunately, the black sword seed could smash the cold arrows under the cover of the night, otherwise he would have been shot into a sieve long ago.
The fire in Guyuan City has spread here, and rolling smoke rolls out from the houses. The long "fire line" is like a twisted red rope, dividing the huge Guyuan City into two.
Chen Ji ran away against the fire, while wondering where to escape next.
The pockets of the Tiance Army's cavalry were tightening tighter and tighter. Chen Ji ran away while shooting the surrounding Tiance Army. Suddenly, a team of Tiance Army turned out from the front, as if they were waiting here early, waiting for him to fall into the trap.
Chen Ji reached out to touch the arrow bag, but he felt empty. He subconsciously looked down and found that all the arrows had been shot out.
He looked up at the several Iron Cavalry of the Tiance Army coming towards him, and there was no way to avoid it.
Thirty steps.
Twenty steps.
Ten steps.
Chen Ji lost the hard bow in his hand and pulled out the whale knife tied to his back!
At this moment, a figure flashed out from the alley on the side, and a few sword flowers flashed by, killing the Tiance Army formation in an instant.
Li Xuan shouted: "Go away!"
Chen Ji said in a deep voice: "Why are you here?"
Li Xuan hurriedly explained: "A armored infantryman broke out in the city just now, and was strangling the Tiance army. I have sent the people to a safe place."
Chen Ji looked behind him, behind him was the surging iron cavalry of the Tiance Army; he looked in front of him, and there were also the surging iron cavalry of the surging iron cavalry in front of him.
Only on the left is a surging fire.
Chen Ji gritted his teeth and covered his mouth and nose, and actually pulled Li Xuan to the boiling smoke in the south.
The next moment, the Iron Cavalry of the Tiance Army, attacking from the east, west and north, gathered together like a black tide, but died in vain!
For a time, the sound of horse hooves on the street was messy, and the Tiance army tightened the reins to prevent the war horses from colliding with their colleagues.
A sharpshooter climbed up to the roof of a winery and silently looked at the rolling smoke. The fire and the smoke were more than twenty steps wide, like an abyss, traversing the city of Guyuan.
Died in the sea of fire?
Just when he thought Chen Ji and Li Xuan had been buried in the sea of fire, he saw two figures jumping out of the rolling smoke and fleeing south with coughing!
The sharpshooter's heart sank, and he pulled out a whistle arrow and shot it southward.
A soldier wearing black feathers frowned. He thought that the other party had brought his hundreds of people to such a big circle, and immediately said angrily: "Chase!"
Chapter completed!
