Chapter 61
Chapter 61: Killing all the way
The next day, he set off for Zhenbei Pass. Gu Du sat in the carriage and cursed his mother in his heart all the way.
Damn old guy, can't you die later? At least you will die when Jin Lan is promoted before she dies. If the good guy doesn't do it to the end, it will delay his good things!
Jin Lan also pouted and lost her face, stared at Li Xiachen and said, "It's all your fault! It's great to apply for promotion to me earlier, so that's not going to happen."
Li Xia coaxed her apologetically: "Blame me, blame me, this is something that no one expected. Don't be anxious. You are only nineteen, and you will only be twenty-two years old. It's not that you are old enough to see."
"What are you saying!" Jin Lan said angrily: "You are so old that you can't see!"
Li Xia smiled and said, "I am old, who should look at me?"
Jin Lan pouted, and was about to speak, when Li Xia suddenly pressed her down, several crossbow arrows shot into it, nailing it to the car board behind Li Xia.
Chu Shuting started crying with a wow voice, and Li Xia sternly scolded: "Don't cry!"
Chu Shuting stopped the sound when she was shocked. Li Xia drew her sword and swept her across, cut half of the carriage away, then kicked her sideways, kicked the carriage away and slid down on the road.
Gu Du had already rushed towards the ambush, and the sword passed by, and blood splattered.
Li Xia turned her head and saw that the officers and soldiers who were driving the car had been shot to death by crossbow arrows, so she quickly moved over and pulled the reins.
The escorted officers and soldiers followed Qiao Hai and Fang Shiyao to the high slope. Lixia grabbed the horse, half-squatted and half-kneeled in the carriage, swaying a horizontal knife to warn the surroundings.
Jin Lan hugged Chu Shuting tightly, watched and saw that there was no danger, so she joked: "You two are really taught by the same master, and they both ruin things like this."
Li Xiachen said, "No, I won't chop the carriage. How can I see clearly the situation outside? When I exit the door of the carriage at this time, wouldn't I beg my death?"
There were thirty people in ambush, all wearing black clothes and covering their faces. When Gu Du rushed over from the seaweed and the officers and soldiers, half of them had been killed, and the remaining men in black turned around and ran away.
"Ah..." Conghai held up a horizontal knife that was almost as tall as him, and roared and chased the man in black. Gu Du called out: "Conghai, stop chasing him."
"No!" Conghai shouted: "I want to kill them all! They dare to plot against the Soul Lord!"
Gu Du shouted: "Come back! Protect Yaya to prevent the thief from luring the tiger out of the mountain."
Conghai stopped and came back with a angrily carrying the knife. He could only hold it or carry it, not because he was short and mop the floor with the knife.
Gu Du returned to the car and asked, "Are you okay?"
Jin Lan replied with a smile: "It's okay."
Li Xia said: "As soon as he left the imperial city, someone robbed and killed him. Is this detailed work so well-informed, right?"
Gu Du said, "No matter who he is, let's go to the military post to change horses and stop taking a car. You can get to Zhenbei Pass as soon as possible."
Gu Du had thought about it long ago that he was ambushed so close to the imperial city, so he must have received the news in advance. This detailed work is not simple. It may be right next to the three priests, or even a certain priest.
Although this idea is too bold or even too ridiculous, there is nothing absolute in the world, but Gu Du cannot say it. On the one hand, there are many people and eyes at present, and on the other hand, his guess is difficult to confirm, and saying it will only cause disaster.
Li Xia put the knife into the sheath and said sincerely: "This knife is really a treasure."
Jin Lan quickly said, "I'm just lending it to you."
Li Xia gave her a blank look, stretched out her arms and said, "Come on Yaya, the soul master embraces you."
Chu Shuting quickly threw herself into Lixia's arms and sobbed in grievance.
Gu Du got into the car and drove away the horse, saying, "You shouldn't bring her here. It's better to leave it to the Soul Lord. It's safer and better than you can teach."
Li Xia said: "She can't live without me, and I can't live without her. And Master Chu said that she should see more of the world."
Jin Lan said, "Sooner or later, we have to lead the troops to fight. No matter what kind of soldiers we command, we can't always cry whenever we have something to do. So what kind of war will we fight?"
Gu Du didn't say anything, but thought to himself that Yaya was still so young, and no one asked her if she wanted to. Maybe she just likes to play with small animals and doesn't want to drive troops into battle.
After changing horses at the military post, Gu Du hugged Chu Shuting on his chest, covered his armor, and tied it with him with a bunch of armor.
Chu Shuting looked frightened. She was particularly afraid of Gu Du, even more so than being afraid of Chu Qin, because Chu Qin only ordered the palace guards to kill people, but Gu Du directly killed two palace servants by himself.
Two days later, I arrived at Panshegou. As the name suggests, it was a ditch that turned several bends like a snake. In fact, Panshegou is not a dangerous place, but if it is ambushed, it is also a good place.
So Gu Du was very careful and divided the escorted officers and soldiers into two groups, one group to go in front and the other group to the back, and they walked in the middle.
In fact, even if there are arrows in front and behind, it is still dangerous if you shoot arrows from the high slopes on both sides, but this is the only way. There is no complete safety, and even if you stay in the palace, you cannot fully guarantee safety.
Panshegou was three miles long and walked over safely. Gu Du breathed a sigh of relief, not afraid of being careful, and being careful to make the ten thousand-year-old ship, it would be best if it was fine.
After walking ten miles more, Gu Du said, "Stop and rest."
Everyone dismounted, and Jin Lan came to help Gu Du untied his armor. As soon as he untied it, before he could take off the armor, people suddenly jumped out from not far away.
These people jumped out from the ground, covered in dust, neither wearing black clothes nor masked, holding all kinds of weapons in their hands, and rushing towards them with yelling.
Li Xia Jing said, "How many people need to be there?"
Gu Du said: "Use the Soul Army."
Then he stuffed Chu Shuting to Jin Lan, covered her with armor, pulled out the horizontal sword and walked two steps, facing the rushing enemy.
Li Xia opened the Soul Box and whispered: "Take me as the ring, advance and retreat one meter, and arrange the array!"
"Roar!" The guards and soldiers formed a circle, drew their swords in their hands, waiting for the enemy to approach.
The enemy rushed over and quickly surrounded them, a small group of people, but no one had the chance to take action. The three hundred soul troops stacked three layers and kept spinning. Any enemy who rushed to the front would immediately twitch all over. In fact, it was not the soul troops that collided with them, but they collided with the soul troops.
The so-called advance and retreat means moving within a distance of one zhang, and if you have an extra zhang, you won’t chase after you come back and hold on to your formation.
Gu Du shouted: "Can you fight? What circle? I was hit by the soul army twice!"
Li Xia shouted dissatisfiedly: "I said to go forward and retreat. Who told you to rush forward? There are hundreds of people on the other side, of course you have to stick to it to be safe!"
Gu Du shouted: "Do you see they are still rushing up? Who is more stupid than who?"
After the first group was cut down, the people behind stopped rushing up, but just yelled around them.
Li Xia shouted, "I can see half a circle!"
Gu Du scolded: "Open my soul box!"
