V3.Chapter 68

On the way to the Fifth Corps station, looking at the green wheat fields on both sides of the road and smelling the sweet smell of grass in the air, Xiao Xiang's gloomy mood has become a lot more cheerful in recent days.

Sitting in the carriage, she made people open the curtain, close her eyes leisurely and enjoy the rare rural scenery. Walking forward, a team of Sichuan soldiers came in front. They looked like more than 100 people. They were dressed neatly and their helmets were bright.

"Who's ahead? This is the Fifth Army station. No one is allowed to enter without authorization!" The Sichuan soldiers lined up on the road and blocked the road. The leader took two steps forward and shouted at Xiao Xiang's guard of honor.

"Blinded your dog's eyes, didn't you see this is the royal highness of your highness?"

A bodyguard urged the horse to run out from the guard of honor, came to the Sichuan army captain, raised the whip in his hand, pointed to the other party's nose and shouted, "go back and report to general Ren immediately, say that the princess is visiting and let him go out of the camp quickly to meet him!"

Captain Chuan Bing looked surprised. First he looked up at the bodyguard on the horse, then looked behind him at Xiao Xiang's guard of honor, and stammered, "it's... It's the guard of honor of the princess..."

"Nonsense, go back and report!" The bodyguard was arrogant and looked down coldly at the captain of the Sichuan army.

Before the captain of the Sichuan army made a response, Xiao Xiang leaned out of the carriage and said, "don't bother to be a general. Just go directly to the barracks."

Xiao Xiang, who came out of the carriage, saw the captain of the Chuan army and the Chuan Chuan soldiers in the rear, kowtow and kowtow, and shouted, "see the princess!"

Xiao Xiang smiled, stood on the carriage, waved to them and said, "don't be polite, you all get up!"

All the Sichuan soldiers responded with a yes, and then stood up one after another. The bodyguard sitting on the horse impatiently urged: "get out of the way, get out of the way, all get out of the way..." before he finished, he suddenly paused, and his face changed greatly.

I saw that those Sichuan soldiers who stood up did not know when they also picked up the crossbow machine one after another. The arrow blade exposed outside the crossbow machine flashed cold under the reflection of the sun.

"You..." the bodyguard exclaimed, but he only said two words. A crossbow and arrow had been shot into his throat like lightning. Go! The arrow was accurate and strong. The bodyguard fell on his back and fell straight.

Almost at the same time, the sound of crossbow machines bouncing around in the crowd of Sichuan soldiers, and countless arrows pierced the sky and roared at Xiao Xiangfei.

Xiao Xianggen didn't have time to respond. She didn't even see what was going on. The raindrops of crossbows and arrows had flown close to her.

On her side, someone screamed, "be careful, princess." with the words, a bodyguard flew into the carriage and threw Xiao Xiang into the carriage.

Pounce, pounce, pounce - just in an instant, the inside and outside of the carriage were covered with crossbows and arrows. Looking at it, there was a vast expanse of darkness, and I didn't know how many arrows were inserted into the wall of the carriage. It was not until this time that Xiao Xiang realized that she had met an assassin.

She wanted to get up, but the bodyguard who rushed up was still pressing on her. Xiao Xiang was ashamed, anxious and angry and shouted, "get up quickly!" As she spoke, she pushed the bodyguard's body, but the latter didn't respond. Xiao Xiang felt something was wrong. She looked up and saw that at least dozens of crossbows and arrows had to be inserted behind the bodyguard. Like a hedgehog, he had already died. The blood was dripping out along his nostrils and corners of his mouth, reddening the skirt of Xiao Xiang's chest.

"Ah -" Xiao Xiang couldn't help crying out. She was stunned for a moment before she came back to her senses and shouted, "there's an assassin, escort! Escort!"

Without her shouting, the accompanying bodyguards have rushed to the "Sichuan soldiers" opposite. The more than 100 Sichuan soldiers dropped the crossbow machine one after another, quickly took out the pills from their arms and stuffed them into their mouths. Then, they took out their sabers and greeted the guards to fight with them.

When they first came into contact, they were just ordinary people, but after a short time, more than 100 Sichuan soldiers became more than 100 spiritual practitioners, covered with spiritual armor and spiritualized their swords.

Xiao Xiang's bodyguards are not for nothing. Most of them are spiritual practitioners, but they are still a lot worse than the assassins in front of them.

The battle between the two sides did not last long, so the bodyguards were cut down by the assassin. One assassin broke through the bodyguard's defense line and jumped into the carriage. He saw Xiao Xiang still lying in the car with a bodyguard's body on his body. Without saying a word, he took the spirit sword and stabbed the bodyguard's body fiercely. He planned to wear sugar gourd and pass through the body, Stab Xiao Xiang.

When his sword blade was about to touch the bodyguard's body, he suddenly heard a roar from his side. Before he could see what was going on, a figure flew from the side and crashed him directly into the carriage. Their figures rolled together under the carriage.

At the critical moment, a bodyguard with big arms and round waist rushed over. Both of them were covered with spirit armor. They lost their weapons and fought together on the ground.

The two men waved their fists and desperately hit each other's head. The spirit armor collided with the spirit armor, with fragments splashing everywhere, mixed with scarlet blood beads.

This is just a corner of the battle. More and more assassins break through the guards' line and launch a fierce attack on Xiao Xiang's carriage.

A bodyguard rushed into the carriage, dragged Xiao Xiang out, then helped her and said in a hurry: "the assassin is threatening. The princess quickly went into the crops and hid first..."

Before the poor bodyguard finished his words, a sword flew sideways, hit his temple and pierced his head in an instant. The bodyguard's body fell obliquely in front of Xiao Xiang, which also made Xiao Xiang stare with terrified eyes.

At this time, an assassin ran to Xiao Xiang with his bare hands, his fingers bent like a fierce ghost.

When he rushed to less than five meters away from Xiao Xiang, a bodyguard rushed over the inclined plane and bumped him into the crops on the side of the road. The two fought each other in the grass.

Xiao Xiang swallowed her saliva and looked around stiffly. There were battles all around her. There were guards and assassins fighting everywhere. The sword and blood spattered from time to time. The bodies on the ground were stacked and blurred. She couldn't tell which were guards and assassins.

At this time, she felt like she was standing on the edge of a cliff, her life hanging on the line, and any external force could push her into the abyss.

The fear from the bottom of her heart made her fight a cold war. She had no longer cared about the majesty of any princess, so she fell on the ground and climbed into the roadside crops.

Bean's sweat beads trickled down Xiao Xiang's cheeks and neck from time to time. She didn't remember how many bodies she had climbed, and finally entered the wheat field by the side of the road.

When life and death were at stake, there was no need to worry about whether it was dirty or not. She walked with her limbs as her feet and kept drilling into the depths of the wheat field.

She didn't stop until she used up the last bit of strength in her body. She didn't dare to look out at how far she climbed out. Her face was on the ground, leaving only her strength to gasp.

The sound of fighting in the distance became weaker and weaker. I don't know how long it took. Finally, there was no sound, but I could vaguely smell the bloody smell in the air.

Xiao Xiang lay on the ground and dared not look up. She shrank into a ball and shook constantly.

Sand, sand, sand! The sound of wheat ears being trampled down came, and it was getting closer and closer. Xiao Xiang's heart jumped faster and faster. It was so fast that she had to cover her mouth for fear that she would scream and that her heart would jump out of her throat.

Sand, sand! The sound of footsteps was closer, so close that Xiao Xiang could hear the creaking sound when the soles of people's feet pressed against the soil. The footsteps finally stopped, and the wheat field became silent, silent and terrible.

Xiao Xiang slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was a pair of military boots with mud and blood on them. She slowly looked up, glanced over each other's knee pads and breastplates, and finally fell on each other's face.

What she saw was a pair of scarlet eyes, ferocious as a ghost's face.

Her mouth opened wider and wider, but she couldn't say a word. The man's red eyes narrowed fiercely, and the spirit sword in his hand was raised little by little. The spirit sword stopped in the air, and the edge flashed a dazzling cold light.

Xiao Xiang saw the murderous intention from the other party's eyes and felt the murderous spirit from the other party's body, but no one could save her at this time. She had never been so close to death in her life. She even smelled the breath of death. For a moment, countless scenes flashed in her mind like walking lanterns, from small to large, so the scenes that impressed her were replayed one by one. In the end, what she thought of was not the assassin, not who instructed the assassin, but Tang Yin.

When Tang Yin's appearance appeared in her mind, Xiao Xiang suddenly made a noise with unknown strength. She screamed, "Tang Yin, help me --"

She suddenly shouted out the words "Tang Yin calls me", which stunned the assassin who was close at hand and was ready to wave his sword. But at the moment of being stunned, a figure suddenly shot out of the rice field behind him. As soon as she walked past, the cold light drew a long arc.

The cold light was gone and the blood was shining. The assassin didn't even see where the sneak attacker came from. His neck was cut off by a sword.

At first, only a red line appeared on his neck. Then, blood flowed along the red line. Then, his body shook back and forth involuntarily. As a result, the shaking shook his head on his neck.

Boom! The head fell to the ground, and the wheel came to Xiao Xiang's eyes. The distance between them was so close that the tips of their noses were almost touching each other. Until then, the expression of the severed head did not change, and their angry eyes still stared at Xiao Xiang.

"Ah --"

Xiao Xiang returned to her senses. She was so scared that she jumped up from the ground. Then her legs softened and fell to the ground. Her ass rubbed the ground and rubbed against it.

"The assassin is dead, Princess highness must not panic!" The man who had just jumped out of the wheat field quickly walked up to Xiao Xiang, squatted down and quickly said to Xiao Xiang, whose eyes had completely lost focus: "the people of the Fifth Corps have come here. They will take care of the princess. I can't stay here for a long time. I'll leave first!" While talking, the man tried to get up and leave, but when he stood up halfway, he found that Xiao Xiang's hand had firmly grasped his skirt.

Xiao Xiang mechanically turned her head and looked at the man. The other party was dressed in black and covered with a black scarf, revealing only two bright eyes outside.

Her voice was low and trembling. She asked intermittently, "tell... Tell this palace, who are you?"
