Today was New Year's Eve! Bi Su had brought her to this cold and desolate forest, in search of Feng Qingmo! Feng Qingmo will be here?
Bi Su looked around vigilantly, and said in a low voice: "I saw him coming towards here at daybreak, I couldn't even find him here. I guess he must be here."
"The point is, what is he doing here?" Qi Yu did not understand.
In the distance, the sounds of horses' hooves could be heard. Bi Su and Qi Yu heard it and immediately hid in an inconspicuous place. Looking at the small convoy, Bi Su said: "abandoned crown prince is here!"
"The abandoned crown prince is out of the city, you want to pass through here?" Qi Yu looked at Bi Su, and a look of surprise flashed past her eyes, "Could it be that Feng Qingmo is going to ambush here to assassinate the abandoned crown prince?"
Bi Su was startled: "This … Impossible, right? "
What grudge did Feng Qingmo have with the abandoned crown prince, to the point that he had to ambush and kill people here?
Chu Yizhao's group of three horse carriages slowly approached the forest, and they were just about to enter the forest slowly.
Qi Yu nervously grabbed Bi Su's hand. She still had not figured out why Feng Qingmo was not here, and if he was, then she had a bad premonition. Damn it, something was definitely going to happen in this forest.
Bi Su frowned nervously as she listened to the voices around her in alert. She wanted to figure out where Feng Qingmo was, was Feng Qingmo here?
Obviously, Feng Qingmo's footprints had ended in this forest, although Feng Qingmo's was good, there would always be a time where she needed to stand up and use her power. Thus, although the footprints that she left behind were not the usual long footprints she left behind, Bi Su still followed the footprints into the forest.
There were no signs of human life outside the forest.
It was the new year and the sky was cold. The people outside the city were busy preparing the New Year's Eve food and celebrating New Year's Eve. Who would come out into the wilderness to enjoy the cold wind?
However, the forest was strangely quiet, and not a single trace was left to prove that Feng Qingmo had possibly been hiding here, nor that he had made any unusual movements.
Could it be that the figure she saw was not Feng Qingmo at all, but was someone else? Could it be that someone intentionally created this fake image to lure Qi Yu and her into the forest?
Thinking about it, Bi Su couldn't help but to become cautious, she immediately pulled out the dagger tied to her leg, and pulled Qi Yu along to hide in the deepest part of the cave.
She wanted to hide Qi Yu somewhere safe so she could take action. She followed Feng Qingmo into the forest, but after failing to find him, she returned to the Ji City. Who knew that Qi Yu insisted that she bring him along, and before the sky brightened, Feng Qingmo had left her a letter. The letter only said a few words: "Stay in the tavern, no matter what you hear, don't leave without permission."
These words aroused all kinds of suspicions in Qi Yu's heart.
Who exactly was Feng Qingmo? What was he trying to do, and what was his intention in having her stay at the inn?
Therefore, when Bi Su talked about Feng Qingmo coming over to the forest early in the morning, Qi Yu insisted that she bring her to find Feng Qingmo.
She did not want to be like before, no matter what happened, she was just foolishly kept in the dark!
Hiding behind a large tree that Bi Su had arranged for him to hide, Qi Yu hurriedly asked: "What, did you notice anything strange?"
Bi Su immediately raised her index finger: "Shh!"
Those who practiced martial arts all had sharp hearing. At this moment, their sharp hearing reminded Bi Su that there was movement around him!
Someone was moving in the wind, fast and agile!
The sound of the wind suddenly stopped behind him!
Bi Su immediately turned her head around, only to see a grey figure walking slowly out from behind a tree. The person had a grey cloak wrapped around his body, his face was covered with a black cloth, and the sword in his hand was pointed straight at Bi Su.
With that figure, that eyes, Qi Yu immediately recognized it: "Feng Qingmo!"
Feng Qingmo immediately covered Qi Yu's mouth: "Don't make a sound!"
Qi Yu quickly whispered: "Are you really here? What are you doing here? "
Feng Qingmo released his hand and looked at Bi Su. His gaze fell on Qi Yu's face and he reproached: "Didn't I tell you to stay in the tavern properly and not go anywhere? What are you doing here? "
Bi Su looked at Qi Yu, not knowing how to answer, Qi Yu quickly replied: Let me ask you, what are you doing here? You want to assassinate the abandoned crown prince? "
Feng Qingmo turned his head to look in the direction Chu Yizhao and the rest came from, and said softly: "This place is dangerous, you guys stay here, and do not act rashly!"
"What's wrong?" Bi Su asked vigilantly.
Feng Qingmo frowned: "There's an ambush in the forest, there might be chaos later. I didn't bring you guys along, it's just that I don't want you guys to get into this trouble."
Ambush?
Qi Yu was startled, she and Bi Su looked at each other, and then — There was actually an ambush here, could it be, that someone wanted to kill Chu Yizhao?
Thinking about someone trying to kill Chu Yizhao, Qi Yu's heart couldn't help but sink!
Could it be Chu Yixuan's men?
The sound of horse hooves could be heard clearly as Chu Yizhao's group of three horse carriages entered the forest.
Because she was close to Feng Qingmo, Qi Yu could clearly feel Feng Qingmo's body stiffen slightly. She turned her head to look at him in astonishment.
Feng Qingmo's gaze fell on her face, and he said with an extremely soft and gentle voice, "Qi Yu, stay here good, and don't expose your whereabouts, okay?"
Qi Yu's heart tightened, "You want to participate?"
Feng Qingmo nodded his head, with a serious look in his eyes: "Yes."
"Why?" Qi Yu asked anxiously.
However, it was too late to listen to Feng Qingmo's answer.
Perhaps, Feng Qingmo wasn't even prepared to answer her question.
His figure quietly shot out like an arrow leaving the bow, and instantly disappeared from Qi Yu's field of vision.
Qi Yu took a step forward and silently withdrew.
Feng Qingmo, who exactly are you? Why was he involved in the royal family's battle for the reserve?
Bi Su looked at Qi Yu silently: "Miss, can you feel Brother Feng's concern for you?"
Qi Yu was startled, "What do you mean?"
"Mm …" Bi Su scratched the back of her ears and replied with some difficulty: "I don't know what it feels like, it's just that I feel that Brother Feng is very concerned about little miss … "Hmm …" It's like, like, you've known each other for a long time. "
"But I didn't know him before?" Even if he flipped through Xu Rouzhi's memories, there was not a single memory related to this Feng Qingmo at all!
"You don't know him?" Bi Su was not sure either. Although she felt that Xu Rouzhi and Feng Qingmo did not know each other long ago, why did Feng Qingmo give her such a feeling?
"Woosh, woosh, woosh, woosh ~ ~ ~"
"Sou, sou, sou, sou, sou ~ ~"
The sound of countless weapons piercing through the air, as well as the sound of countless figures flying through the air, were all heard by Qi Yu and Bi Su!
Countless tree branches were shaken, and the accumulated snow on the tree branches silently fell, causing a large amount of snow and sand to dance about. That scene was truly beautiful to behold, it caused one's heart to tremble.
The frightened horse let out a hiss and raised its front hooves high, almost overturning the carriage. The Crown Princess who was in the car exclaimed, "What happened?"
Zhan Cao, who was protecting by his side, quickly said: "Quickly protect the crown prince's wife and imperial concubine and retreat!"
A few guards came from behind and tried to pull the carriage back out of the forest. Zhan Cao ran over to Chu Yizhao's side: "Crown Prince, there's an ambush here!"
Chu Yizhao slowly pushed aside the carriage's curtain and jumped down. His cold eyes sweeping across the surrounding Masked Man, and asked coldly: "Who are you people?"
No one said a word, all of the surrounding Masked Man s pulled out their swords, and aimed them at Chu Yizhao. The leading Masked Man said, "Send the crown prince to the Yellow Springs Road!"
Chu Yizhao sneered: "What, you're going to kill them all so soon?"
The leader of the Masked Man said, "Since the crown prince is leaving, why not leave for good? My Prince will definitely thank you! "
With that, the Masked Man snapped his fingers, and all the Masked Man s immediately pounced towards Chu Yizhao, a cold light radiating in all directions, like an invisible net that enveloped Chu Yizhao.
Zhan Cao immediately waved his sword to meet them, and with a "shua" sound, he pierced towards one of their throats! The Masked Man did not expect Zhan Cao to rush forward to meet his sword, and in the nick of time he was unable to dodge, causing blood to immediately spurt out. The man's eyes were wide open, and the sword in his hand fell to the ground, as he frantically reached out his hands to cover the wound on his neck, but the gush of blood was like water, he could not stop it!
Masked Man's body twitched and slowly fell to the ground.
The Masked Man at the side was splashed all over by his companion's blood and subconsciously reached out to wipe his face. Taking this opportunity, Zhan Cao stabbed forward and the other Masked Man got hit again!
At the same time, a dozen or so swords thrust towards Zhan Cao's back. Unexpectedly, Zhan Cao swung his sword, and like a dazzling rainbow, everyone was blinded by his sword, and subconsciously they all reached out to block. Zhan Cao took the opportunity to jump out of the circle and support Chu Yizhao.
Seeing his comrade twitching at his feet while Zhan Cao tried to protect Chu Yizhao as he left, the leading Masked Man shouted angrily, "Capture him, don't let a single one of them escape!"
Chu Yizhao had no intention to escape. Clenching his teeth, he slowly pulled out the sword on his body. Escape?
He knew that there would be no way out of this mess ever since he had set down the leader's will!
If he didn't die in the Wildlands, he would die on the road to the Wilderness. He had mentally prepared himself for this!
He was the stately First Prince of the Dongluo, and had been in the Eastern Palace for eighteen years.
Rather than living in the wilderness miserably, it was better to die happily!
Seeing that Chu Yizhao did not have any intention to leave, Zhan Cao became anxious!
"Crown Prince, let's go!"
However, it was already too late to leave. The Masked Man surrounded them once again, sealing their retreat path.
Zhan Cao could only retreat a step, and with one hand, he snatched the sword from Masked Man's hands, while with the other elbow he smashed against Masked Man's ribs. With a "shua" sound, he pulled Masked Man in front of him, and several swords stabbed into Masked Man's chest.
Fresh blood splashed everywhere, the sword wielding Masked Man was stunned!
He had used their companions to block their swords!
Masked Man was furious, "Return my brother's life!"
