Chapter 257： protect me

Chapter 257 Protect me

Hu Maoxi looked shocked: what the **** are the couple doing, one can predict the beasts coming, and the other has already noticed the assassin lurking in the forest.

Just the **** I am an ordinary, ordinary person.

"Protect me, protect me."

He widened his eyes, and shouted at the servants beside him in a very ordinary way.

The yamen servants pulled out their sabers and gathered around him, taking precautions.

I saw men in black jumping down from the branches in the lush forest.

Hu Maoxi saw that the husband and wife were trying their best to shoot and kill the jackal, and the other kept taking arrows and shooting at the man in black jumping down from the branch, so he had to protect the four treasures with small eyes who were turning straight with his body, and his eyes were full of kindness. He comforted: "Sibao, don't be afraid, Uncle Hu will protect you."

Liu Shuyang clenched the Son of Heaven Sword tightly, his hands trembling, as if he was at a loss.

He has never seen such a scene in his life, and cold sweat is already breaking out on his forehead.

Chu Nanzhi sensed the movement on Lin Jinxiao's side, looked at the two remaining jackals that were running away, pulled out all the feathered arrows and bit them in his mouth at the same time, drew out two fully drawn bows and aimed at one end, the other straight Pierce one of the jackals into the tail and the other into a bush.

Then he quickly took another arrow from his mouth and looked intently at the arrow shaft inserted in the bush. Through the arrow shaft, he looked straight at the other jackal that had fled away. With a sound of "swish", the arrow flew out from the bush The bull's-eye on the ground passed by, stabbing fiercely into the jackal's back, and the jackal fell down.

The pack of wolves gathers the scattered packs through the sound of hissing, and the pack of wolves that has gathered at the moment has been shot and killed. It seems that there will be no new pack of wolves rushing over in a short time.

Chu Nanzhi turned around, looked at the sound of fighting in the forest, continued to draw the bow and shoot arrows, saw that the figure kept shooting at the man in black, and four or five people fell to the ground in response to the arrows.

The man in black in the forest sensed that someone had sniped at her, and a few of them rushed towards her with strides.

Chu Nanzhi shot one person down with a stray arrow, but the other five people had already attacked forcefully, and the cold blade slashed across her face, bringing a chill to her nostrils.

The keen insight made Chu Nanzhi feel the unusualness of these killers. Their attacks were vicious and powerful. They were not comparable to the brute force guards of the Shen family. They were all well-trained military generals.

Chu Nanzhi yelled cursingly while dodging: "Good men don't fight with women, and you still have a group of people bullying me, a weak woman, stay away from me if you have the ability."

Hearing the sound, several people stopped their movements and looked at each other for a while. Before they could react, they saw a flying arrow go straight into one person's chest.

"Smelly bitch, play dirty."

One of the masked cursed in anger, waved a long knife in his hand and slashed at her imposingly.

Lin Jinxiao held the Tianzi Sword and had just repelled a wave of masked men's attacks. Suddenly, he saw Chu Nanzhi who was besieged by people in the distance. He aimed at the direction and threw the sword in his hand forcefully: "Chu Nanzhi, take the sword."

Hearing a warm and deep voice, Chu Nanzhi turned her head and saw a sword shadow rushing towards her face. She took advantage of the situation and held it in her hand to forcefully receive the long knife that was slashed up, followed by several "click" sounds It was heard that several long knives that were chopped up were broken directly at the waist.

"It really cuts iron like mud."

Chu Nanzhi exclaimed, taking advantage of the astonishment on the faces of several masked men, he stabbed a sword into the heart of one of them.

The other three people looked at the sharp long sword in her hand, and then at the only handle left in her hand, feeling hairy in their hearts, and slowly backed away.

It's just that before a few people retreated to their companions, they heard the sound of fighting behind them. Chu Nanzhi looked over, but it was Li Ce leading the guards who rushed up.

He took the lead with a big knife in his hand, and rushed into the black-clothed crowd with his head held high.

Chu Nanzhi walked up to Lin Jinxiao with the Tianzi Sword in hand, seeing his clothes were stained with blood and holding a stolen long knife in his hand, she asked with some concern, "Are you alright?"

Lin Jinxiao shook his head, stretched out his hand to brush off the dead leaves and twigs from her shoulders and hair, and stared at her quietly, feeling very complicated at this moment.

Chu Nanzhi supported him and sat down beside Hu Maoxi, then turned around and carefully observed the surrounding situation, only to see that the few remaining masked men were surrounded by Li Ce and the guards, a little overwhelmed.

Seeing that victory was in sight, Hu Maoxi immediately gained momentum, stood up boldly, and shouted to the yamen servants: "Keep two alive."

As soon as he said this, the three men in black who were struggling to resist put down their weapons one after another. Just as the yamen guards were about to stab their sabers out in front of them, they saw the three vomit blood and fell to the ground dead.

Li Ce leaned down to check his breath, checked the mouth of the black-clothed mouth, and immediately rushed over, sighing bitterly: "Brother, Mr. Hu, bit his tongue and killed himself."

"It's unreasonable."

Hu Maoxi became angry from embarrassment, pointing at Guan Erbai and Li Sanmu and shouting: "You search for this officer, and you must find someone alive."

Lin Jinxiao raised his eyes and looked around, looking around at the corpses lying here and there in the forest and some government servants moaning on the ground, and waved to Guan Erbai and Li Sanmu: "No need, check and see how many brothers were killed or injured."

The two left after hearing the sound, and took the officers under their hands to count the casualties.

Hu Maoxi squatted down again, staring at the thoughtful Lin Jinxiao anxiously, and asked unwillingly: "Don't you want to investigate? These people are so bold that they dare to assassinate the court officials."

"They would rather die than be captured. Even if there is a living mouth, they will not be able to question anything."

Lin Jinxiao looked at the corpses again: "The skills of these people should be the same group as those who robbed tax money last time."

"It's simply deceiving people too much."

Hu Maoxi frowned and cursed: "I have never made enemies with anyone. These people came to murder me again and again. First, they robbed tax money and wanted me to dismiss me from office. Now I am going to Beijing. People took advantage of the situation to ambush me, it seems that some people don't want me to enter Beijing."

Seeing his resentful expression, Chu Nanzhi sighed helplessly in his heart: You really worry too much, greasy uncle.

If, as Lin Jinxiao said, these killers are the same group of people involved in the tax robbery case, then it means that these people came for him.

Chu Nanzhi put the Tianzi sword back into its sheath, and lowered her body to look at the Four Treasures protected by Liu Shuyang. This little guy hid in Liu Shuyang's arms like a frightened bird, not daring to open his eyes.

"It's okay, don't be afraid."

Lin Jinxiao touched the back of the little one's head, and then Sibao leaned out to look at his father and mother lightly, then lay on Chu Nanzhi's shoulder and began to sob.

"The bad guys have been killed, it's okay."

Chu Nanzhi comforted in a warm voice.

Sibao's small eyes unconsciously looked at the tiger lying on the ground, still moaning, and suddenly stopped crying, pointing to the distance and calling weakly: "Mother, the tiger seems to be crying."
