Peng Ziqi had changed back to women's clothing. Ever since that day when Xia Xun found someone to impersonate Naren Tuoya, but later she found out that the woman named Xie was a member of the Xie clan in Chen County, she had a strong sense of crisis. She had already
After asking, that woman is not Xia Xun's fiancée. The Xie family in Chen County has flourished and has descendants all over the world. Of course, it is impossible to find a woman from the Xie family in Chen County who is his fiancée.
But seeing Xie Yufei's beauty, she immediately thought that maybe the woman Xia Xun was engaged to was as handsome as her. So, completely beyond Xia Xun's expectation, Peng Ziqi was still a tomboy in front of him at this moment.
, the next moment she turned into a pretty girl with red lips and white teeth, slowly flowing like a pear blossom in the snow.
Her appearance still has some heroic spirit, not as soft as Xie Yufei's, but also has a kind of cold beauty. This coldness is just a kind of coldness in temperament. When she smiles sweetly, it is like the beginning of light snow and the beginning of peach blossoms.
A ray of spring breeze blows on your face. Just imagine how comfortable it would be to have such a beautiful girl accompanying you during the journey.
Xia Xun was injured. Although it no longer affected his basic activities, he was injured after all. And Peng Ziqi was a charming little beauty with an extraordinary temperament. How could such two people do such rough work as handlebars, so Ximen
High-ranking officials became the best candidates to drive the train...
"Brother Ximen, you are really good at catching the train. I asked you to go with the traveling merchants. You have to trust the horse and play with the reins. Now it's better. It delayed the trip, took a sidetrack, and it was already dark.
It’s snowing, what should I do?”
Peng Ziqi poked his head out of the car and blamed Ximen Qing, his tone was coquettish but without any real anger.
Ximen Qing's condemnation of beauties was always taken as a compliment. He just laughed and said: "People make mistakes and horses make mistakes. This is the only time we have come down. Come on, let's go to the nearby mountain col."
Let's rest for the night. Anyway, there is a stove in the car, and the bedding and bedding are all ready. I will collect some firewood later, and then light a few fires around the carriage to drive away the wild beasts. There is something interesting about sleeping in the wild like this."
"It's just..." Ximen Qing chuckled, winked at her and said, "I'll squeeze into the car too, but I'll disturb you all."
Peng Ziqi's face turned red, and she glared at him and said, "I won't tell you anymore. I'm not serious." As soon as he lowered the curtain, he retracted into the car. He turned around and saw the half-smile on Xia Xun's face, and Peng Ziqi's face became even more serious.
Hong couldn't help but feel a little shy.
In fact, although she and Xia Xun were already in love, they never got into trouble. Of course, this does not mean that Xia Xun is a strict and polite gentleman. He must wait until the day of marriage before agreeing to have flowers and candles in the bridal chamber. Such a beautiful and appetizing lady
There is a beauty next to him, and he is not a droopy man. Why not eat what he should eat? Anyway, he will eat sooner or later.
He just never had time. From the time they met, made a love, and rushed back to Lulongguan together until now, there have been many dangers and things happened one after another, and Ximen Qing, the super electric light cannon, has always been following him like a shadow.
He didn't have time to make out with Peng Ziqi in private, so how could he have a chance to eat secretly?
How sad!
What is the most painful thing in the world? It's just a pretty little beauty placed in front of you, like a plate of crisp and delicious radishes, washed so crispy and juicy that you want to eat it
She, she is also willing to ask you to eat, but she just can't.
But Peng Ziqi didn't think so. She had been getting along day and night for the past few days. With the keen sense of a daughter's family, she could often feel Xia Xun's impulses and needs, but he never acted too much, even if he lowered the car curtain and quietly did some rubbing.
His affectionate behavior was also on point. She felt that the husband she had chosen was indeed a sincere gentleman. Such a man was worthy of her lifelong trust.
The car was parked, and the two harried horses and Peng Ziqi's horse, which had been tied behind the car, were tied under a tree on the hillside on one side, and they were fed some bean cakes. The car was parked in the leeward place, with a frame set up under the shaft.
It steadily became a "RV". The miserable Ximen Qing looked up at the increasingly dark sky, brushed the falling snowflakes from his shoulders, and said, "I'm going to collect firewood."
Xia Xun walked out of the car. In fact, his wound had begun to heal, and tender flesh had grown on the wound. Slight movements were not hindered, but Peng Ziqi was afraid that he would crack the wound, so he still supported him.
Xia Xun squinted his eyes to look at the snow that was gradually falling heavier and heavier, and said: "Brother Ximen, stop being busy. It looks like the snow will not be light tonight. It's not actually cold when it snows. There are still two charcoal in the car."
The box is enough for us to last the whole night. This place is right on the roadside, and there is no chance of any large beasts approaching. You have had a hard journey, so you should warm yourself up in the car."
Ximen Qing smiled and said: "My brothers still love me, but as for my younger siblings... ugh!"
Peng Ziqi glared at him, pretending to be a little lady in front of Xia Xun, and said nothing.
At this time, Dai Yubin, who had been following and sneaking in the dark, finally caught the opportunity. With a sinister smile on his face, he took the bow off his shoulder and slowly set an arrow on it.
His forearm was injured, and he still couldn't shoot it well. He could only be patient and slowly draw the bow. Fortunately, it was not far from where Xia Xun and the others were. Even if the bow was not fully opened, he could still hit the target.
he.
Dai Yubin's archery skills are very good. With his archery skills, he can hit the target even if his hand is injured and even though his arm is shaking slightly due to the strain on the injury. This bow was made by him when he disguised himself as an officer and escaped from the Yan Palace in the chaos.
Shi Shun took it, and there was some condiment on the arrow. As long as it hit the vital point, he believed that he would be able to kill the bastard who ruined his plan.
"Zi Qi, let's get out of the car and go for a walk. I feel a little bored after staying in the car all day. It's very refreshing when it snows."
"good."
Peng Ziqi responded softly and turned to one side, preparing to get out of the car. Xia Xun also took a step forward. The two of them had been standing on the shaft of the car looking at the snowy scenery in the mountain col. This action was very sudden for Dai Yubin, and they turned around.
, moved, only a moment earlier than Dai Yubin loosened the string and shot the arrow. Dai Yubin had no time to fasten the arrow feathers again. Instead, he suddenly subconsciously wanted to fasten the arrow string again and strained the injured area. His arm hurt.
The arrow tail was slightly scratched by a finger.
A slight difference is a thousand miles wrong.
If Dai Yubin hadn't been stunned by Xia Xun's sudden movement, the arrow would still have hit Xia Xun, but it would have changed from the throat to the shoulder. However, this time the shot really missed, and the arrow went straight to replace Xia Xun.
Peng Ziqi left...
"Whoosh!"
Just as Peng Ziqi was about to jump out of the car, she bent her knees slightly, and the arrow that was supposed to hit Xia Xun's throat was shot towards her. Peng Ziqi only felt a dark shadow flash in the corner of her eyes, and the instinct of a martial arts practitioner made her subconsciously move slightly.
In a flash, a sharp arrow passed by and hit the carport with an "empty" sound.
Peng Ziqi felt a burning pain on her shoulder. She immediately became alert and pushed Xia Xun hastily, shouting: "Be careful, there is an assassin!"
Xia Xun was pushed by Peng Ziqi and fell into the carriage. In the carriage, Ximen Qing was kicking his buttocks to warm himself by the fire. When he pressed him, his handsome face almost fell into the stove. Ximen Qing was startled.
, supporting the car with both hands, pushing Xia Xun up.
Peng Ziqi pushed Xia Xun into the car, and immediately drew his sword and flew towards the direction of the Leng arrow.
The white clothes are fluttering, the same color as the snow.
The snow suddenly became much denser.
Dai Yubin wanted to shoot the second arrow, but he had just used his strength suddenly and had already injured his arm. It was very difficult to string the bow accurately. Peng Ziqi gave him no time to prepare. He was hiding from him as fast as an arrow leaving the string.
Flying in the direction, Dai Yubin saw this, gritted his teeth, stood up and ran towards the mountain.
Ximen Qing shouted in the carriage: "What assassin? What assassin?"
Xia Xun explained what had happened in a few words, and the two of them rushed out of the carriage together, but Peng Ziqi was nowhere to be seen. Ximen Qing reached out and pulled out the arrow that was inserted diagonally into the carriage shed. When he saw the arrow, his expression suddenly changed, and he lost his voice and said: "Wild goose feather arrow! This is
Arrows specially designed for border troops!"
It turns out that the arrows used in the Ming army are not the same. There are many kinds of arrows for different functions. The guards in various parts of the Ming Dynasty generally use goose feather or duck feather arrows; the border troops use goose feather arrows; the imperial guards use goose feather arrows.
The Forest Guards used eagle-feather arrows. Each type of arrow has its own shaft, tip, and length, and its manufacturing specifications have its own characteristics.
The wild goose feather arrows used by the frontier army had boxwood shafts and long triangular narrow barbs at the tip. Such arrows were easy to cut and wedge in. They were specially designed for the leather breastplates often worn by the northern nomadic cavalry.
The triangular-pointed and wide-barbed hooks used by ordinary guardsmen can only deal with inland bandits or rebels, and have limited lethality against the double-layered animal skin-tanned armor worn by the grassland herder warriors.
"The arrows used by the border troops?"
Xia Xun's heart sank immediately after hearing this. The first thing he thought of was whether it was Zhu Di's instruction? Zhu Di was famous for his ruthlessness. What if he was worried that he could not keep the secret and wanted to kill people or assassins?
From the Sansi Yamen, I'm afraid there must be more than one person. Zi Qi chases her out alone, just in case...
Thinking of this, Xia Xun hurriedly got out of the carriage and shouted, "No, I'll go find her."
Ximen Qing stopped him and said, "You are still injured, I will go."
As he spoke, he took another look at the arrow cluster. Using the lantern hanging on the front of the car, he noticed that the arrow cluster was emitting a purple light. He couldn't help being secretly surprised: "The arrow is also quenched with poison!"
He did not dare to tell Xia Xun, fearing that he would be injured and chased out, so he immediately raised his sword and chased in the direction of Peng Ziqi. Xia Xun could not rest assured, but when he returned to the carriage, he drew out his weapon and jumped to
Under the car, even Ximen Qing could no longer be seen. He was worried that if he chased the two of them, they would not see him lose his sense of control when they came back, so he had to wait there anxiously.
Peng Ziqi caught up with Dai Yubin, but Dai Yubin's bandy legs, which were accustomed to riding horses, could not outrun Peng Ziqi, who was excellent in light kung fu. He turned east and west and circled half of the mountain until he finally ran out of energy and gasped for breath.
Peng Ziqi was annoyed that he had hurt people with his hidden arrows, so he was merciless in his attacks. He chased after him with a single step and swung his sword with a wave of his hand. Dai Yubin raised his long bow in panic to resist. The extremely tough bow tire was cut off by Peng Ziqi's sharp knife, and the tip of the knife was broken.
He opened his leather jacket and found a bloody trace.
"It's you!"
Peng Ziqi had followed them for a long time with the people from the White Lotus Sect in Peiping, and recognized the appearance of their main characters. Dai Yubin no longer pretended to be there when he came out of Beiping City. Peng Ziqi recognized him at a glance and couldn't help shouting: "It turns out it's you.
