Chapter fifty-fifth life in desperation

The city gate in Mayi was closed, but fortunately, the Magistrate of Mayicheng was a corrupt official and received bribes from Zhangjiazhai for many years. When he heard that Miss Zhang had an urgent matter to leave the city, he still gave him some convenience.

At the order of Zhang Haoyue, fifty riders rode their horses straight to Dingxiang. No one asked why, these fifty riders were all dead soldiers raised by Zhangjiazhai since childhood, and they absolutely obeyed Zhang Haoyue. Even if she ordered her to commit suicide, they would implement them without hesitation.

Bai Qiaoqiao and Zhang Haoyue rode together and brought one more person. Zhang Haoyue's riding skills were not a problem at all. He rode his horse without any obstacles. After walking for an hour, he found that some people were coming to Mayi not far away. Zhang Haoyue immediately brought Bai Qiaoqiao to the front. With the light of the torch, Bai Qiaoqiao saw Bai Naoer in front of the team at a glance. It was hard for his old arms and legs. He had obviously left the last time, but he rushed to the front of the team, so tired that he was panting. Suddenly, a group of people appeared in front of him. Bai Naoer just thought that he was a Turkic person. He was so scared that his face was gone, and his butt was limp on the ground and could never get up again.

Bai Qiaoqiao got off the horse, ran to Bai Naoer, and said, "Dad, how did you escape? Where is my brother [567 Chinese www.yue20.com]? Where is my husband?"

"Daughter?!" Bai Naoer saw that it was Bai Qiaoqiao clearly, and was overjoyed, and grabbed her arm: "I'm not right, daughter, it's really you! Who are these people?"

"They are from Zhangjiazhai, and I beg to save you." Bai Qiaoqiao said anxiously: "Dad, you haven't answered my question yet. Where is your brother? Where is your husband?"

"The Turks are powerful and cannot resist. Li Mu found a secret passage and asked us to escape first. He didn't leave, so he gave me twenty taels of silver. Your stupid brother refused to leave. There were also the county magistrate and a few people who were not afraid of death, and they were still in the city!"

"Mr...." Bai Qiaoqiao sobbed and said to Bai Naoer: "Dad, you go to Mayi first, I have to save Mr. Lang!"

"Don't be stupid!" Bai Naoer grabbed a handful and didn't catch it, and said anxiously: "What are you going now? Dingxiang must have been trapped. You guys are going to die? Your brother is gone. If you go again, who do I expect to support your father!"

"Dad! I'm sorry, I'm going to find my husband!" Bai Qiaoqiao reached out and asked Zhang Haoyue to pull the horse. Fifty riders bypassed the people and rushed towards Dingxiang. After a while, there was a sudden light of fire in the west. Zhang Haoyue grabbed the reins and said, "It seems that your father is right. Dingxiang City is trapped and has set fire to the city."

Bai Qiaoqiao was covered in tears and grabbed Zhang Haoyue's arm and begged: "Sister, even if the city is trapped, my husband may not be dead. Even if he dies, I will collect his body for him. Good sister, I beg you, just take me there."

Zhang Haoyue is a soft-hearted person. She was so helpless that Bai Qiaoqiao cried that she had no choice but to grit her teeth and said, "Sister, I will send you another trip. If you get to the city and the Turks have not left yet, don't blame your sister for being ruthless. I can only order to return and will not fight with the Turks."

Bai Qiaoqiao's heart had already flown to Dingxiang City. She didn't hear anything Zhang Haoyue said clearly, but only heard the words "Send you another journey" and hurriedly thanked her. Seeing her like this, Zhang Haoyue sighed, waved the whip in her hand, and continued to move forward with fifty horses.

Another hour passed, and the group met Bai Gensheng and his gang who escaped after setting off the fire. After asking, Bai Gensheng said that except for Li Mu, they all escaped, and there were nearly a thousand Turkic soldiers in the city. Bai Qiaoqiao's eyes were suddenly filled with despair. She still insisted on going to Dingxiang, but Zhang Haoyue rejected her this time.

"Sister, I respect your husband as a man, but at this time, we can't go. You didn't hear your brother say that there are thousands of Turkic soldiers in the city, and we are no match for them at all. I can't let the brothers in the village die in vain, and I can't promise you."

"If you don't send me, I'll go by myself." Bai Qiaoqiao came up with a stubborn temperament, and ran forward from the horse. Bai Gensheng couldn't hold it back. Zhang Haoyue watched her run farther and farther away, and suddenly chased her up. She swung the whip in her hand, rolled up Bai Qiaoqiao and pulled it back onto the horse's back.

"Let me go, I'm going to save my husband, I'm going to die with him..."

"I'm sorry, sister!" Zhang Haoyue slapped Bai Qiaoqiao's back neck and knocked her out. Zhang Haoyue looked at Dingxiang City with flames from afar, and turned her head.

In Dingxiang City.

Li Mu's "Flying Grass" successfully attacked Princess Yicheng who had just pushed open the door. The Tang sword pierced from the back and penetrated her chest. Li Mu's strength and his own gravity made Princess Yicheng "nail" to the ground. Without even screaming, she died immediately on the spot. Blood burst out, making Li Mu's face full of his face. Fortunately, when he was guarding the city wall, he had already killed someone, otherwise he would have fainted with a myocardial infarction.

This is a murder. In the previous life, who has killed anyone except the vicious murderers? But in the Tang Dynasty, this scene would be staged anytime and anywhere in this chaotic border town. No one would find it strange that Li Mu adapted after a battle to defend the city.

Li Mu wiped off the blood on his face, took a few deep breaths, breathed calmly, pulled Tang Dao out of Princess Yicheng, and was surrounded by Turkic shouts, so he had to speed up.

Li Mu dragged Princess Yicheng back to the house, folded his hands and sued her, and searched her. Soon, he touched a brocade box, a scimitar, and a piece of clothing from behind her waist. Although he was a little strange why Princess Yicheng brought a piece of clothing on her body, he didn't have time to think about it and wrapped the brocade box with her clothes and put it in his arms. The Tang sword was too long and it was inconvenient to carry it. He picked up the scimitar, tiptoed out of the house, and climbed onto the roof.

At this time, there was a chaos in Dingxiang City, and it was on fire everywhere. The Uighurs who had just opened the gate of the treasure house thought there were ambushing soldiers and their formation was in chaos. Finally, they confirmed that there were no ambushes and the fire had spread. They rushed to the treasure house to grab things, and a group of people squeezed into a group. The people who ran out with their property were sadly found that the food stockpile at the exit of the secret passage that had just entered was burning, and the fire soared into the sky. Who dared to break in? He had no choice but to find the city gate. On the way to the city gate, there was a few steps of a trap. Who could hide in panic. There were caltrops in each pit, which made them cry and cry for their parents. Finally, they ran to the city gate, and the city gate was blocked again. They were so angry that they cursed and had no choice but to do anything.

Li Mu lay on the roof and watched, making him almost laugh. The ancients said, "Man is dead for money." Sure enough, this was true.

At this moment, a thunder sounded in the West, and the sound became louder and louder from far to near. Li Mu stood up and looked up. He saw a fire dragon in the West mixed with rolling smoke and dust. Look at this momentum, who else could it be if it weren't the Tang cavalry!
