Chapter 783: Escaped a calamity (1)
The four of them immediately realized what was going on and exclaimed, “”Not good! It’s a trap!”
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, the sound of strong crossbows being set up came from all around the tent.
Yu guitian reacted the fastest. He immediately fell to the ground and rolled to the bottom of the table.
Just like that, countless air-piercing sounds could be heard.
Black arrows pierced through the tent and shot over.
Before his four subordinates could even react, they were turned into porcupines and were all killed on the spot.
The dense rain of arrows did not stop, as if they were going to hit every inch of the tent.
Fortunately, he had the foresight to hide under the table, so the arrows could not hurt him.
After a few breaths, the arrows gradually stopped. The tent had been shot into pieces and finally collapsed.
Outside the tent, Fang cuihong and the rest slowly lowered their crossbows.
Long before they set up camp, they had received Xia qingchen’s order to set up an ambush in the vicinity of his tent.
As long as an unknown person entered, they would be killed without question.
As for Xia qingchen and Miao Yin, they would temporarily stay in Fang cuihong’s tent.
“What’s the situation?” In the tent next door, Miao Yin heard the sound of the curtain collapsing and immediately rushed over.
Looking at the tent that had collapsed into ruins, he could not help but be stunned.”What happened?”
Xia qingchen walked out unhurriedly. He glanced at the collapsed tent and said, “”Are you sure they’re all dead?”
Fang cuihong glanced at the arrows that were all over the ground and said, “”They should all be dead, right?”
With a wave of her hand, several female soldiers immediately came forward and dragged the collapsed tent away, cleaning up the scene.
However, just as the tent was pulled open, a sudden change occurred. A figure suddenly jumped out of it and attacked.
A female soldier nearby was caught off guard and was sent flying by a palm strike, smashing toward Xia qingchen’s group.
This caused Fang cuihong and the others, who wanted to attack, to be obstructed. They were unable to stop the other party immediately.
By the time he was free, it was already too late.
The figure slipped away like a wisp of smoke and quickly jumped into the river, quickly disappearing into the rapid current.
It only emerged from the water when it was far away.
However, the distance was too far, and it was beyond the range of the strong crossbow.
“Detestable!” Fang cuihong stomped her feet, full of self-blame.
Under such a strong attack, there was actually one survivor. It was really unexpected!
Now, he could only watch the other party escape.
“Give me the crossbow.” Xia qingchen walked over and stretched out his hand.
Fang cuihong immediately passed the crossbow in her hands to Xia qingchen. The latter pulled out the broken Sword and placed it on the crossbow.
He then pulled the trigger, and the broken Sword shot out like an arrow.
When it was ten Zhang away from the Man in Black, the broken Sword lost its power and started to shake.
The Man in Black looked back, and a trace of coldness appeared in his eyes. He lowered his head and continued to dive into the water.
But at this moment, Xia qingchen finally controlled the broken Sword, causing it to injure the enemy.
Wuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwuwu
In an instant, the broken Sword crossed a hundred feet and stabbed the Man in Black.
The Man in Black was shocked. He hurriedly turned around and tried to Dodge the broken Sword, but he was still attacked by the broken Sword.
The rough blade grazed the man’s face.
The strong wind caused by the blade not only blew away the black cloth on his face, but it also left a long scar on his face, so deep that the bone could be seen.
“Ah!”
With a miserable cry, he fell into the waves and was swept away.
Xia qingchen beckoned with his hand, and the broken Sword flew back. He looked at the fresh blood on it and said calmly, “”He’s really lucky.”
If he hadn’t reacted in time, the sword just now should have pierced his neck.
my Lord, the fugitive just now looked a little like … Fang cuihong’s brows furrowed and she hesitated.
This matter concerned the higher-ups of the Northwest Military Region, so Fang cuihong really didn’t dare to speak carelessly.
“Like Yu guitian, right?” Xia qingchen asked.
Fang cuihong lowered her head and said hesitantly,”they do look a little similar.”
Xia qingchen returned his sword to its sheath and placed his hands behind his back. He calmly spoke, “”It’s not that they look like each other, but that they are.”
He had set up the ambush today because he had expected that Yu guitian would not sit still and wait for his death. He would definitely take action.
However, he didn’t expect that Yu guitian, who had always been cautious, would choose to do it himself.
“Then, my Lord …” Fang cuihong was at a loss.
Yu guitian’s status wasn’t higher than Xia qingchen’s, and his family background was so powerful that it was suffocating. Such a character clearly wasn’t someone who could be dealt with by ordinary laws.
“Of course I’m going to file a complaint to the military Palace.” Xia qingchen spoke.
When a general of the military Palace made a mistake, unless it was a shocking crime like treason, the supervisor of the military Palace would deal with it first.
“Also …” Xia qingchen’s tone changed. He suddenly lifted his foot, and an arrow that was stuck in the ground was sent flying. It then shot toward Miao Yin.
The latter was caught off guard and quickly dodged in fear.
This Dodge forced her to jump into the river.
Plop-
Miao Yin’s whole body was soaked, which outlined her slim figure.
Her beautiful face turned cold, and she was about to ask Xia qingchen why he had gone crazy and why he had suddenly attacked her.
But all of a sudden, Xia qingchen’s voice rang out in his ears. also, Miao Yin was attacked by Yu guitian and fell into the river. No one knows if she’s Dead or Alive.
Eh?
Everyone present was shocked. Fang cuihong and the others stared blankly at Miao Yin, who was still in the water.
Wasn’t she fine?
On the other hand, Miao Yin was extremely intelligent and immediately understood Xia qingchen’s intentions. Her cold and beautiful face was filled with surprise as she said, “”You really keep your promise.”
After he finished speaking, he plunged into the river and disappeared into the night.
Fang cuihong wanted to go forward and pursue him, but she was stopped by Xia qingchen. She sighed helplessly.”Do I have to explain it clearly?”
Fang cuihong and the other female soldiers were loyal, but they were not smart enough.
“We don’t understand your profound meaning, please punish us.” Fang cuihong immediately knelt down on one knee in fear.
She really didn’t understand the deeper meaning of letting Miao Yin go.
Didn’t His Excellency and Yu guitian have a blood feud?
If he could bring Miao Yin back to the military Palace and testify against Yu guitian, would Yu guitian still have a way to live?
“You’ll understand soon enough,” Xia qingchen spoke.
Not long after, Li Linlin returned with his Army. When he saw Xia qingchen’s tent being used up, he knew that things were not good.”What about Miao Yin?”
He looked left and right, but did not find the other person’s figure, and his heart sank.
Fang cuihong and the others replied,”general Li, Miao Yin …” He was shot to death by Yu guitian.”
Eh?
Li Lin squinted his eyes and asked,”what are you guys talking about?” Yu guitian?”
Fang cuihong suppressed her guilty conscience and said, ” yes, Yu guitian led a group of mysterious men to kill Miao Yin. Although Lord Xia had planned an ambush in advance, he still managed to escape.
“Kill Miao Yin before you escape, and then escape.”
After a pause, Fang cuihong said,”I’ve already ordered people to search for Miao Yin along the river. I hope we can find her body ..”
Li Lin’s eyes flickered with faint flames.”I’m not asking Miao Yin, I’m asking Yu guitian! How can you be sure that the one who ambushed you was Yu guitian?”
His pupils shrank, and he was faintly looking forward to it.
