Jiu Chi and Xiao Xu were standing on the road leading to the imperial city, but they didn't know which direction to go. Jiu Chi complained that Lan Qimeng was not a good person and actually sent them to the road and ignored them.
At this time, a group of carriages and horses came on the main road. The man who opened the way in front was covered in armor, riding an iron cavalry, holding an iron whip, and rushed forward.
When he saw Jiu Chi and Xiao Xu, he rushed over and said, "The bold thieves dare to block the way."
As he spoke, an iron whip flew towards Jiu Chi. Jiu Chi caught the iron whip and pulled hard. The man immediately fell off the iron horse and rolled on the ground.
Xiao Xu hated the most domineering people in his life. When he raised the knife and dropped it, that person's head had already rolled to the side.
Behind them, eighteen knights wearing armor and holding giant swords rushed over and surrounded Jiu Chi and Xiao Xu.
At this time, an old man with a staff in his hand walked over slowly and said to the knight, "You guys step back first and let me come."
The old man activated the spell to strike first, and Xiao Xu immediately swung the Lingwu Fulong Saber and struck it.
The old man dodged quickly, and Xiao Xu flew out with another knife, which was caught by the old man with his staff.
Jiu Chi asked hurriedly, "Do you want my help?"
Xiao Xu smiled slightly and said, "Just watch it!"
At this time, a young girl came out of the carriage and shouted sharply, "Stop!"
The old man stepped aside and said in an old voice, "Your Highness, please let me deal with these two traitorous bumpkins!"
The princess smiled gently and said to Jiu Chi and Xiao Xu, "The two young heroes are already extraordinary in their skills at a young age. They are both outstanding men. Now it is the time for the court to employ people. Can the two young heroes go back with me and bring them with me?"
I will report this to my father, the Emperor Ming, and the two of you will be able to serve as officials in the court."
Jiu Chi smiled and bowed his hands, then politely declined, "Thank you for your kindness, princess. I am from the mountains, so I may not be used to being an official in the court!"
The princess stared at Xiao Xu with her beautiful eyes and said, "Where is this young master?"
Xiao Xu smiled slightly and said, "I have studied hard since I was a child just to serve the country. Now I have finally achieved a little success, but I am suffering from no one to recommend me. Today I was lucky enough to meet the princess. With the princess's recommendation, I don't worry about not being able to serve the country. The grand plan
Da Zhan. I am willing to follow Her Royal Highness the Princess forever!"
Xiao Xu looked at Jiu Chi and saluted the princess, "This is my brother. I have been separated since childhood. Today we are reunited and we are not willing to part with each other. I beg the princess to allow me to follow the princess with him!"
The princess smiled lightly and said, "Okay, you two, get on my carriage!"
A minister in a purple robe and gold belt next to him said to the princess, "How can the princess, who is rich in gold, ride with the untouchables in the mountains?"
The princess moved slightly and said, "My court has always treated virtuous people with courtesy. These two are both heroes, so why not?"
So the princess and the Jiuchi brothers rode in a carriage together.
Jiu Chi thought to himself, "Could this little princess be my sister? Isn't it a good idea to recognize each other rashly?"
Xiao Xu thought to himself, "I was worried that I couldn't find the way to the royal city. Someone actually used a carriage to pick me up. Now that I have this princess, it will be much easier to go in and out of the forbidden areas of the palace. When I get to the palace, I can check out the monsters in the palace."
thing!"
At this moment, the carriages and horses passed through a dense forest. A group of black-clad killers suddenly flew out of the dense forest, and the carriages and horses suddenly became a mess.
The captain of the guard shouted loudly, "Everyone, please protect the princess!"
These men in black were all masters among masters, but after a while, more than half of the guards' cavalry were killed or injured. The old man who had just fought against Xiao Xu also joined the battle. Because he was outnumbered, he could only protect himself.
At this time, Xiao Xu said to Jiu Chi, "Protect the princess, and I will kill those killers!"
Xiao Xu flew into the crowd and shouted loudly, "Get out of the way if you don't want to die!"
All the guards retreated behind Xiao Xu. Xiao Xu activated the Golden Wheel Slash in all directions, and all the killers were injured by the sword energy.
The leading masked man saw that the situation was not good and shouted, "Retreat!"
All the men in black fled quickly.
An unlucky man in black was caught by an old man because he was injured and moved slowly.
The old man shouted at the man in black, "Who assigned you and why did you harm the princess? Tell me!"
The masked man was about to speak when he was suddenly hit in the head with a hidden weapon and died.
The old man wanted to chase the person who used the concealed weapon, but thought of the need to protect the driver, and was afraid that the black clothes would come back to attack again, so he returned to the carriage.
*************************
The carriage continued forward to the palace and did not meet the assassin again.
When Jiu Chi saw the palace, he couldn't help but sigh to himself, "What a magnificent palace. How great would it be if I hadn't been driven out of the palace by that monster and lived in this deep palace compound since I was a child?"
Xiao Xu saw Jiu Chi in a daze and smiled and said to Jiu Chi, "What are you thinking about?"
Jiu Chi came back to his senses and sighed, "I was thinking how great it would be for us to live here all the time since we were little. We don't have to suffer and suffer. If I catch the monster that got us out of the palace,
It must be crushed to ashes."
Xiao Xu looked at Jiu Chi and smiled slightly, "Are you sure you can destroy him?"
Jiu Chi was silent for a while and said, "Isn't there still you? I believe that when brothers work together, their strength is as strong as gold!" After saying this, the two of them looked at each other knowingly and smiled.
At this time, the princess came over and said with a smile, "Thanks to you for saving me today, I haven't asked the names of the two young heroes yet!"
Jiu Chi bowed his hands and said, "Jiu Chi!"
Xiao Xu also bowed his hands and said, "I'm Xiao Xu!"
The princess said in surprise, "Aren't you brothers? Why are your names different?"
Xiao Xu thought to himself, "It's rare to explain this to this little girl."
So he smiled and said, "We are sworn brothers!"
Jiu Chi also smiled and said, "To those who are sworn friends."
The princess nodded in confusion and said, "Oh, that's it."
Xiao Xu thought to himself, "This little girl is so easy to deceive."
The princess smiled lightly and promised the two brothers, "I will definitely report today's events to my father. You can obey the decree!"
