Jun Lingyun threw the poison bag directly into the middle of the wolves and shouted:
"White Owl!"
Bai Xiao cooperated tacitly and immediately threw the wooden arrow in his hand, and the poison bag scattered in the sky above the wolves.
Everyone quickly backed away from a few trees.
The wolves were not stupid, and they also scattered in all directions, but there were still 12 out of 10 wolves who inhaled the powder and lost their fighting power. After struggling for a few times, they collapsed softly to the ground.
The other wolves looked at their companions lying on the ground, and they were a little afraid.
When Chu Yunxi saw that it was effective, he was overjoyed. If it didn't work once, he would do it twice. At worst, he could throw a few more bags at the same time, and he would be able to deal with all these wild wolves.
"Wu You, Wu Lu, bring your share."
The other secret guards looked at Wu You and Wu Lu with envy as they took out the poison bag and threw it to their master. They then looked at Wu You who was holding his wife-to-be.
As expected, there are many benefits to following the Crown Princess.
Just as Wu Lü was about to throw out the poison, he heard a rapid and eerie flute sound in the distance.
The leading wolf actually looked back, then howled, turned around and led the pack, and just ran away?
"Master, do you want to pursue me?"
Bai Xiao clearly saw a figure flashing past in the distance. As the wolves retreated.
Jun Lingyun's eyes were a bit cold in vain.
Could it be her?
"Don't chase poor bandits."
That's what he said, but that man could actually control a pack of wild and untamed wolves, and the secret guards knew that he should not be underestimated.
Seeing that the direction in which the wolves were escaping was the dense forest that Jun Lingyun and others were going to pass through, everyone's expressions became a little solemn.
If they still passed through the dense forest, they might be attacked by the mysterious man and wolves.
When the wolves were out of sight, everyone breathed a sigh of relief and jumped down from the tree.
Jun Lingyun touched Chu Yunxi's long, silky hair.
"Are you frightened?"
Chu Yunxi shook his head.
"With you here, I have nothing to fear."
Jun Zifeng also let go of Su Yan's arm, but the moment he let go, he felt a little disappointed.
Seeing Su Yan blushing and taking a step back, she remembered the feeling of holding a woman in her arms just now.
He was trying to save people in an upright manner, but suddenly he felt a little at a loss what to do.
"Ms. Su, please obey your authority when it comes to urgent matters."
Su Yan looked at her toes to hide her inner panic.
"I understand. I just wanted to thank you, Your Majesty, for protecting me."
Wu You and He Xiang went to help the injured secret guards spread hemostatic powder.
Bai Xiao put his thumb and index finger together, put it in his mouth, and blew a loud whistle.
After listening for a long time, I didn't hear the sound of horse hooves.
Everyone's mood is a little depressed. This country has no village in front of them and no store in the back. Where can they get more horses?
"bypass!"
Jun Lingyun made a decision immediately. They could not take the risk of walking into the dense forest ahead. If it was really the person he thought of, it would be very dangerous to encounter her unprepared.
Although it takes two or three more days to make a detour, it is still better than losing your life.
It was naturally not a wise move to stay where they were and wait for dawn. Who knew if those wolves would come back and attack them.
We could only use the faint moonlight to travel all night and settle in the nearest city.
The closest city to here is Wangyang City, which was a military center where Dongyi gathered troops to prepare to attack the Yunxiao Kingdom.
Although the conflict between the two countries has now been resolved and the army has withdrawn, the troops stationed all year round are still there.
I'm afraid the orders from the top to the bottom are not that fast. They are eye-catching and will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble. But now, this is the only way to go.
"Eeeeeeeeeee!"
Suddenly there was an unclear sound of a horse braying in the distance, but it made everyone's eyes light up.
Bai Xiao hurriedly blew his whistle again. Then he gradually heard the sound of horses running.
Jun Lingyun's white horse was the first to reveal itself, leading the other horses back to them.
The white owl took inventory and found that there were a few missing. Maybe it was lucky that so many of them came back alive from the wolves.
Arrange uninjured secret guards and bring an injured co-rider with you.
Jun Lingyun approached the white horse and patted its strong back.
"Nice horse!"
The white horse seemed to be inspired, and raised its head and called out "咴儿咴儿" twice.
Everyone mounted their horses and did not dare to stop along the way. Finally, more than an hour later, they arrived at Wangyang City.
The sky was already turning white. They entered the city smoothly and found a humble inn to stay. They also invited a doctor to treat the secret guards.
Jun Lingyun looked serious all the way. Even though he had settled down, he still did not relax at all. Chu Yunxi couldn't help but asked worriedly:
"Ling Yun, do you know the identity of that person in the forest?"
You don't need to think about it to know that someone who can command a pack of wolves will not be a simple person. Moreover, he is coming towards them and wants their lives.
Jun Lingyun thought for a moment and decided to tell Chu Yunxi the truth.
"She is a mysterious beast master of the Northern Barbarians. I heard that she was raised by snow wolves since she was a child, and was later used by the Northern Barbarian royal family."
Jun Lingyun paused for a moment, and his expression became more solemn.
"In the previous life, the disappearance of your father and brother was also inseparable from her."
If Jun Lingyun had not gone to the Northern Barbarians to rescue General Chu in his previous life, he would not have known that the Northern Barbarians secretly cultivated such a famous figure. He also lost many of his confidants.
Chu Yunxi's heart suddenly shrank. The pain of losing her father and brother in her previous life suddenly came to her senses and hit her limbs and bones again.
Even though she knew that the battlefield was ruthless and everyone had his own master, she could not let go of those who had killed her father and brother.
Seeing Chu Yunxi biting her lower lip tightly and looking a little confused, Jun Lingyun gently opened her lower lip and asked her to let him go.
He took her into his arms again and patted her back gently.
"Xi'er, don't worry, I will solve the troubles of the Northern Barbarians sooner or later."
That barbaric nation can feed on raw meat and kill foreigners, young and old, at will like livestock. In this life, he will not let them harm the people of Yunxiao Kingdom.
Chu Yunxi hugged Jun Lingyun tightly. Only Jun Lingyun understood her pain and hatred, and only Jun Lingyun could heal the scars deep in her heart.
"Xier, don't think about anything. If the sky falls, I will hold you up. Have a good sleep and recharge your batteries so that we can go home."
Chu Yunxi nodded silently and was gently picked up by Jun Lingyun and placed on the bed. He lay beside her and watched her sleep before gently wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
I also closed my eyes and took a deep sleep to cope with the crisis that might arise next.
Unfortunately, they only rested for half an hour before someone came to the inn door and refused to let them rest.
Jun Lingyun listened to the noise outside and glanced at Chu Yunxi who was still sleeping soundly, with a gloomy look on his face.
Outside the inn door, an official looked fierce.
"Some people have reported to the government that you group are acting suspiciously, wearing sharp weapons, and are injured. Quickly arrest them without any help, and follow us back to the government for questioning. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude."
Bai Xiao stood at the door of the inn, blocking the dozen or so menacing officials from the door. He took out the customs clearance document and held it up in front of the leading official.
"Our customs clearance documents are complete and the city gate guard has checked them. You might as well take a closer look."
