The sound of horse hoofbeats was getting closer and closer to them. The people who were blocking the middle of the road immediately moved to both sides and made way for them. When the out-of-control horse ran past, they also used Qinggong.
Followed.
There is a drug added to the firecrackers that can paralyze the horses' nerves. When the horses smell it, they will realize the danger is coming.
And because of its survival instinct, it will drive it to run wildly without hesitation to escape from dangerous places. However, under these double stimulations, the horse will soon use up all its energy. In the end, it will be exhausted and die on the roadside.
Therefore, the group of people easily caught up with the carriage without spending much effort. When they got there, they saw that the horse had fallen to the ground and was foaming at the mouth.
The carriage must have hit the big tree next to it, and the entire carriage was smashed. There were only wooden boards on the ground, and there was no sign of anyone at all. I guess he ran into the woods before they arrived...
Indeed, Pei Shen and the coachman, who were rare guests, each carried a small dumpling on their backs and ran as fast as they could into the depths of the mountain forest.
Just now, the coachman couldn't control the horse, so he hugged the handrail beside the carriage tightly. When he passed by the bandits, he clearly saw the ferocity in their eyes.
Moreover, the opponent has a large number of people, and there are only two big and two small on their side. If they are caught, there is no chance of survival? Instead of staying and waiting, it is better to give them a try and see how lucky they are today and whether the master can escape.
Ascend to heaven!
"Master Pei, run quickly, those people should be chasing you soon -" The coachman was running out of breath, but he didn't forget to remind Pei Shen beside him.
Pei Shen has always been a weak scholar, and he is rarely seen out for exercise. He stays in the house all day long, playing with his wood.
But now when running into the woods, everyone discovered that Pei Shen's physical strength was also surprisingly good!
"You don't have to worry about me, just save your energy and run away. We don't know what's going on yet, and it's a long way from the capital. We have to find a safe place to hide first!"
The driver stopped talking, because what Pei Shen said was right. They didn't know martial arts, so they could only rely on their legs to run forward and find a safe place quickly.
…
The three parties who had been following the carriage also saw what had just happened.
When the brothers of Jihua Pavilion saw this, their hearts were in their throats. Especially when they saw the broken wooden boards in that area, they immediately rushed out and fought with the bandits.
In the woods, the killers from Lingfu Tower saw this scene and laughed at the man's overestimation of his abilities.
"Look, isn't that our mortal enemy, a member of Ji Hua Pavilion? If he falls into our hands today, he will never be able to come back alive!"
"That's natural. How can he alone defeat so many of our brothers?!"
"But don't tell me, the master of the Su Mansion is really rich. The battle last night couldn't be arranged with just a few hundred thousand taels."
"So what? Even if the surroundings of the mansion are fully arranged, as long as the two little ones are not staying inside, it will be useless no matter how many arrangements there are."
"That is to say, it takes no effort to get there even if you try hard to find it! We thought that the task assigned to us by the second master this time would be very difficult, but we didn't expect that it would be so easy in the end."
"I wonder if the brothers who are watching around the Su Mansion will be depressed to death after we tie the two little ones back..."
In the woods, the people in Lingfu Tower watched the fighting outside, and they were still talking to each other. The discussion was a happy one.
The brothers of Jihua Pavilion, with their own strength, hacked each other to death and wounded more than a dozen people. In the end, he was stabbed several times and died tragically at the hands of the bandits.
"Brothers, stop hiding. The things here have been settled. It's time for us to go back and report to the second master. As for the rest, it's your turn!"
The speaker was a burly man with a beard on his face and a big knife on his shoulder. After shouting to the place where the killers were hiding in Lingfu Building, he left with his men.
