Chapter 082
"Where can there be so much love for each other?" Wanyan Changfeng smiled: "Don't you think that the struggle for power only happens in the court? Between tribes and tribes, and between countries and countries
It's the same between countries, even more direct and naked. People with a lot of knowledge will not show mercy when fighting, but they still have to worry about the appearance. But here, there is no such scruple at all.
.”
Long Yu smiled bitterly. He didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing to be so naked.
After resting for a while, Dan Mu asked everyone to get up, then they all got on their horses again, and a group of people walked into the woods. Due to the climate restrictions, the woods here are not dense. A single tree stands tall as the sky, but the gaps between trees are very small.
Kuan, everyone rode their horses in the forest, and the speed was not slow. As they walked, they distanced themselves.
While I was running fast, I suddenly heard a plop in front of me. The horse walking in the front tripped over something and knelt down. The man on the horse reacted quickly. He rolled off the horse and jumped to the side.
Roll, raise his arm, and shoot out several sleeve arrows.
There was only a muffled groan and a thud, and a man dressed in black fell from the tree, holding a crossbow in his hand. If you look carefully, you can see that there was a crossbow stuck in the back of the horse that was tripped on the ground.
There were three short arrows in a row, and the poison seemed to be quenched on the shoulders. A strong horse fell to the ground with foam at the mouth.
"There's an ambush." The person in front shouted, but in a split second, before Long Yu could react, Dan Mu had already pulled her off the horse and leaned her back against a big tree. Others in the clan
Everyone also abandoned their horses. Even Wanyan Changfeng was pulled off. No one knew he knew martial arts. A frail scholar naturally had to be protected. More than a dozen horses suddenly lost their control and fell into the woods.
Turning around in circles.
Long Yu's nerves suddenly became tense. She was blocked behind by Dan Mu, who had a broad figure and thick shoulders. Being in front of her blocked all of Long Yu's sight, except when he looked up and saw a big tree in the sky.
Can't see either.
"Don't move, don't make a sound." Dan Mu turned around and whispered, then extended his hand to the tribesmen around him and made a few gestures.
It seems that living on the grassland requires not only riding horses and herding sheep, but also having the ability to investigate and counter-investigate. Long Yu suddenly felt very emotional. As the saying goes, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Those who lived in Shamu
On that day, I thought this was a peaceful paradise, but now it seems that it is not peaceful at all.
Long Yu stood behind Dan Mu. He couldn't see and could only hear the sounds outside. He could only hear people passing through the green leaves. Bows, arrows and daggers were shot out. He didn't know whether they were his own people or the enemy. From time to time, there were brief and tragic sounds.
There was a cry and a thud, the sound of people falling from the trees.
Long Yu was leaning against the tree trunk. He saw Dan Mu suddenly put his hand on his lower back, and then he realized that there was a dagger stuck in his lower back.
The dagger was unsheathed, shining with a cold light. Suddenly, the air pressure around Long Yu dropped. He swallowed, and Dan Mu said without looking back: "Stand still."
"Yes." Long Yu responded, watching Dan Mu jump up the branch like an arrow, and then screamed, a man in black fell down, eyes wide open, and landed at Long Yu's feet
, at first glance there were no injuries, but slowly, a trace of blood slowly appeared on his seemingly intact throat, and then thick blood spurted out like water.
Long Yu completely forgot that the dagger Dan Mu had been unwilling to take out was given to him by him. He also thought that this knife was really sharp and he didn't know if it was a famous weapon. The earth in this era was too dangerous, and he seemed to be the one who should go there.
Get something as sharp as iron to protect yourself.
The man in front of him had not completely died, but his throat was cut so he could not speak. He only made a whirring sound, like an old bellows. He struggled to move forward a little, and reached out to grab it.
Long Yu's ankle.
Long Yu was startled and was about to open her mouth to shout uncontrollably when a hand covered her mouth from behind.
I don't know when Wanyan Changfeng came to her side from under the tree. He shook his head at her and signaled to be silent.
Now that the enemy is hiding, I am also hiding. Because the trees have dense branches and leaves, although the Gaoju people are well hidden, they cannot make any big moves, and they cannot clearly know where Long Yu and the others are hiding.
Anywhere, as long as Long Yu doesn't move, it's basically safe. But once he makes a sound, he will become the target of public criticism, and he will be a living target.
The man at his feet was already at the end of his strength and was making a final struggle. In fact, there was no threat at all. He stretched out his hand feebly to grab a handful, and dropped his hand. The wind of the Grand Canyon was whistling in his ears. What he heard now,
In fact, it was the sound of blood gushing out of his own throat. It was the legendary sound of death.
Long Yu was startled by the person at his feet at first, but when a hand suddenly covered her mouth from behind, he was even more frightened. Wanyan Changfeng was silently covered by the person at his feet.
Long Yu, who had all his attention, didn't notice at all, almost feeling that all the nerves in his body were tense.
Fortunately, Wanyan Changfeng knew how Long Yu would react, and the hand covering her mouth was very strong, covering up the scream that reached Long Yu's mouth and turning it into a gentle grunt.
Then he swallowed it.
When Wanyan Changfeng's gentle voice rang in her ears, Long Yu's heart suddenly relaxed. She didn't know why, but this man made her feel so safe and warm, better than Mo Li.
I feel even safer. I can’t explain why, but I just feel like I can trust and obey completely.
Wanyan Changfeng smiled silently, took a pill in his hand, and made a gesture towards Long Yu to take it.
Long Yu was a little confused, but he still took it and put it in his mouth. The pill had a spicy taste and melted in his mouth. Long Yu stuck out his tongue, fanned himself with his palm, blinked his eyes, and watched with confusion.
Yan Changfeng.
But he saw Wanyan Changfeng looking at him with a smile, and the look in his eyes was so gentle that it seemed to be dripping with water. Long Yu couldn't help but doubt his own eyes, because she felt that it was a very nostalgic and intimate look.
, she had never seen that kind of emotion even in Mo Li's eyes.
Long Yu touched his face and could only guess whether he looked similar to Wanyan Changfeng's former lover, so he missed people when he saw things, and he loved the house as much as the darkness.
Wanyan Changfeng seemed to feel that his emotions were a little exposed, and quickly adjusted himself. He smiled apologetically at Long Yu, then squatted down, took out a small handful of herbs from his arms, took out the fire breakers and lit the herbs,
A faint fragrance spread out.
The wind was strong and directional during this season. Long Yu felt that although there was only a little bit of the herb, it seemed to have a strong fragrance. He was thinking about what Wanyan Changfeng was doing when he heard a thud and a horse was wandering around in the forest.
The frightened horse just fell down and lay on the ground.
It turned out to be an intoxicating drug. It seemed that the antidote Wanyan Changfeng gave him was the antidote. Long Yu was suddenly enlightened. He hadn't finished yet. He only heard people far and near. It seemed that many people fell from the trees.
He came down. One fell down not far in front of him. I don’t know if he was unconscious when he came down from the tree, or if he fell to the ground and fell unconscious.
Zi Ling, who was hiding aside, walked out with a short knife in his hand. Without looking at the unconscious man on the ground, he picked up the knife and stabbed it into his heart. He pulled it out and shook off the blood on the knife.
, walked over and said, "Mr. Wanyan is really powerful, he can defeat one against a hundred."
Wanyan Changfeng smiled, looked at Long Yu's unhappy expression, and whispered: "Don't you think it's cruel, but sometimes it's like this, either someone kills you, or you kill someone. If we fall in
They will not be soft-hearted in the hands of the Gaogu people."
"Yes." Long Yu forced a smile: "I know." I understand the truth, but I have never experienced such a scene, and I feel a little uncomfortable.
Zi Ling looked at Long Yu and just snorted coldly. This man didn't want to see him. Long Yu knew it, so he snorted in return and said nothing.
Long Yu was very interested in Wanyan Changfeng's medicinal herbs that could kill so many people. Just when he was about to ask him, he saw Dan Mu coming from the side and beckoned: "Check it and deal with the horses on the spot. Let's
Let’s move on now.”
While talking, Long Yu only saw Zi Ling walking up to the yellow gelding he was riding, reaching out to touch the horse's nose, sighing softly, inserting the short knife in his hand into its neck like lightning, and then pulled it out, splashing
Blood all over body and hands.
Long Yu couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Well, why do we have to kill even the horses?"
People can clearly distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, which Long Yu can understand, but what can be so sinful about a horse, let alone his own horse.
"I don't have that much antidote, and I don't have time to wait for them to wake up." Wanyan Changfeng gently placed his hand on Long Yu's shoulder: "The effect of this drug on them can only last half an hour. The pursuers
We will definitely arrive within this time, and we cannot let them be used by the Gaoju people. The Gaoju people have been chasing here all night, and their horses are already very tired. If we change horses for them, we will have a chance to escape.
It will be smaller."
Looking at Long Yu's half-understanding expression, Wanyan Changfeng sighed softly, as if with some reluctance and reluctance: "I really don't want you to come into contact with these bloody and cruel things, but since you are among them
, blindly escaping makes no sense. At least they are unconscious now, and their death is painless.
"I'm fine." Long Yu said, "Actually, I'm not that fragile, I'm just not used to it. Mr. Wanyan, you... you don't have to protect me like this. It makes me feel very embarrassed."
Wanyan Changfeng looked at Long Yu for a long time, exhaled a long breath, seemed to want to say something, but swallowed it, smiled faintly, and nodded. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome.
