The Golden Hairpin

After a short rest, the hottest time of noon passed. With Princess Qi Le, she naturally couldn't ride a horse. Li Shubai and Huang Zixia got in a carriage, and Princess Qi Le's car followed.

Although they were all light and simple, the guards brought by Princess Qi Le totaled 70 or 80 guards, and there were more than 200 guards at the Royal Kui Palace. With great momentum, Li Shubai and Huang Zixia felt the road swaying in the carriage, their speed was reduced by more than half, and they could only look at each other silently.

The glass bottle hung in the car shook, and the little red fish inside seemed to be tired of the long-distance running, swimming in the water uneasily.

Huang Zixian raised his hand to hold the glass bottle and let it sway as little as possible, while whispering: "Why does the prince carry it on this journey? In case the glass bottle gets knocked, it is better to put it in the palace. ."

Li Shubai glanced at Xiaoyu and said, "I'm used to it."

Used to it, what are you used to? Is the little fish accustomed to following him, or is he accustomed to keeping a little fish next to him, occasionally paying attention to it?

Huang Zixia looked at the Agashne, and suddenly remembered that he had found this little fish in the blood squeezed out from the emperor ten years ago. At that time, he was still a child who didn't understand the world, but now he is the famous Kui King.

In the past ten years, this fish has never grown up or changed. It has been by his side and has never made any sound. It seems that something has been fixed forever on the night when he was thirteen years old, frozen forever, never changed.

She let go of the glass cup in her hand and sighed softly in her heart, thinking, no matter what it is, ten years ago, maybe it is not just a habit, but an indispensable and important thing.

Seeing the red gradually slanting westward, Chengdu Mansion has not yet arrived.

Jing Yu urged the horse to catch up, and whispered outside the window: "The lord, the princess is unwell and has already got out of the car to rest."

Their carriage can only come to a halt slowly. Li Shubai looked at Princess Qile through the window. Seeing that she got out of the car and leaned against the tree, her face was not exhausted. He only looked left and right, with a full-faced expression, and raised his hand to fold a hollyhock in his hand. NS.

Li Shubai glanced at Huang Zixian, she knew, took the mint underwater vehicle to greet Princess Qile, and handed her the mint water, saying: "The prince asked the slave and maid to bring this water. If the princess feels uncomfortable on the journey, Smell the water more, it will relieve depression."

Princess Qi Le happily took it, put it under his nose and sniffed, and said: "The prince is so careful, I just have a little chest tightness."

Huang Zixian looked up and looked around. Seeing that the clouds were in harmony, the birds were flying randomly, and the pine waves roared in the evening breeze, she couldn't help but feel stunned. Get in the car and rush to Chengdu Mansion early."

"It's okay. I heard that it's only 20 miles away. We will be able to make it before the first change." Princess Qi Le looked around and smiled, "You see the beautiful scenery here, there are thousands of people in the gorge. The flowers are blooming, don't you want to take a look?"

Huang Zixia couldn't help feeling a little helpless, and could only say: "The county lord Yaxing, it's just that it's too late today, it's better to order someone to find someone again tomorrow and play around for a day. I don't know what the county plan will do?"

"Everyone says that the grandpa Yang next to King Kui is very handsome, but he didn't expect that he didn't understand Fengya at all." Princess Qi Le threw away the flower in his hand and walked to his carriage.

Huang Zixian breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to return to Li Shubai, when she suddenly heard Princess Qi Le say from behind: "Wait a minute, Duke Yang."

She turned to look at Princess Qile again, but saw that Princess Qile held a small box in his hand and said, "I almost forgot. This is for King Kui."

Huang Zixian lowered his head and stretched out his hand to pick it up, but Princess Qi Le raised his hand and said, "This can't be passed by other people's hands. I have to personally give it to King Kui."

Huang Zixian said helplessly among the flying birds, "Then, the princess can send the prince off after arriving at Chengdu Mansion. Now, let's get on the bus and go to Chengdu Mansion as soon as possible."

"I don’t know yet. When you arrive in Chengdu Mansion, Zhou Shijun must be hosting a banquet and singing and dancing. He has to toss for a long time. When tomorrow, King Kui is busy with business, it is too difficult for me to find him. "She said, lifting the skirt corner, stepping on the velvety green grass under the tree and walking to Li Shubai's car, smiling at Li Shubai inside, "I almost forgot to give you a gift."

Li Shubai put down the paperwork in his hand, smiled and raised his hand to take it, and said, "Thank you for the trouble."

"Hey, why don't you look at it." She lifted the skirt corner, stepped on the wooden steps, sat beside him, smiled and picked up the box, and handed it to him again, "Guess what's inside. ?"

Li Shubai looked at this box and frowned slightly: "How do I know."

"Really, I won't even perfuse me." Angrily, she opened the lock and lifted the lid of the box, and said, "But I prayed for months before the Buddha. The Bodhisattva said to me, It will definitely fulfill my wish and fulfill my hopeless mind..."

She hadn't finished her words, and she had lifted the lid of the box.

I haven't seen what's inside, I have seen a flash of light.

How alert Li Shubai reacted. At the moment that light flashed, he grabbed the small couple next to him and smashed it towards the box: "Don't open it!"

However, a slight chirp sounded, and as Princess Qi Le lifted the lid of the box, a slight air current burst out of the box and filled the entire carriage.

No, it's actually not the airflow, but hundreds of steel needles smaller than a cow's hair, which filled the carriage like a gust of wind, and in such a small space, it was impossible to avoid it.

Fortunately, Xiaoji had been hit, Princess Qi Le's hand was skewed, and the box immediately fell into the car. A thick blanket was laid on the car, and the remaining needles were all shot into the blanket without a sound.

But with so many needles, a few have already leaked out after all.

Li Shubai didn't say a word, only raised his hand and pulled out a thin needle from his left elbow. Princess Qi Le personally opened the box, she was close at hand, her chest and shoulders had been pierced by needles, and she suddenly screamed.

Li Shubai immediately grabbed Princess Qi Le's arm and led her out of the car.

Princess Qi Le looked at him unconsciously for the last time in a daze, but his eyes were out of focus.

Li Shubai hugged her and said in a deep voice: "Jing Yu, set the arrows; Jing You, cover."

Cangyun quadrupled, the sky was getting darker, and the long wind roared past the mountains, like the sound of turbulent waves.

There were screams everywhere, the sound of bows and crossbows breaking through the air was intensive, and the arrows were all fired.

Flying arrows were like rain, shooting towards the motorcade parked here, and it was actually the guards of Prince Kui or Princess Qile who wanted to shoot them all.

The guards of Princess Qile suddenly messed up their hands and feet.

After all, the guards of King Kui's Mansion are well-trained. Under the command of Jing Yu and others, they have gathered for a while, using trees, horses and carriages as barriers, and quickly lined up to the outside. Some people have already drawn out their bows and arrows and started to fight back.

Arrows rained down, the wailing of the horses and the screams of the arrows from the guards kept coming. Flowing arrows shot towards them behind the carriage, and one of them almost plunged into Princess Qi Le's exposed leg.

Li Shubai put Princess Qi Le under the car, raised his hand to sniff her, and then put his hand down again.

Huang Zixia didn't pay attention to his expression in a hurry, only staring at the movement outside the circle.

No matter how brave and brave the guards of the Royal Palace were, they were ultimately no match for the ambushes that appeared one after another, showing a weak position.

Huang Zixian has no self-defense weapons, so she can only turn around to look at Li Shubai. He threw a dagger he had with him to her and whispered: "After a while, ride on the sand and rush to the southeast." Huang Zixian squeezed the dagger and said hastily: "The opponent's offensive is impenetrable. I'm afraid this crossbow formation. Can't rush out."

"The opponent used a nine-strand crossbow. Three arrows were fired at a time, and twenty-seven arrows had to be filled. I think they fired in turn, but they were not evenly matched, especially in the southeast corner. Tacit understanding, there must be a gap at that time-and, one and a half of the Jiulian crossbow, how much weight can each person carry? They have to march between the mountains and the wilds. I don't believe how long they can maintain such a dense offensive."

Sure enough, as Li Shubai had expected, once the initial offensive had passed, the momentum of Arrow Rain was greatly weakened. Jing Yu Jingyou and others got on the horse immediately and signaled to break through.

Huang Zixian got on the sand and turned his horse's head to look at Li Shubai.

He couldn't wait to wash away the evil, and he leaped forward with a long hiss.

Li Shubai glanced at Princess Qi Le, who did not know his life or death. After all, he got on his horse, passed her side, dropped a large swath of horses and the corpses of the guards, and led everyone to gallop southeast.

It was the moment when the crossbow and crossbow were exhausted. The people over there obviously did not expect that the other party would break through. Although they also quickly organized an offensive, the hurried resistance was unable to resist before the momentum of the Jedi counterattack. When the few people who had come to stop were chopped down by Jing Yu and others who took the lead, the horses behind quickly caught up, and the few people who were still raising their swords to resist were trampled on the ground. The screams made the surrounding people fearless. Ju Han immediately fled and scattered.

Li Shubai took the lead with one ride, and dozens of people behind him broke through the encirclement in one fell swoop and dispersed.

From Hanzhou to Chengdu Mansion, there are wild forests all the way. Once dispersed, it will be like birds throwing into the forest, and the opponent will no longer be able to wipe them out.

In the gradual dimness of the barren forest, Huang Zixian followed Li Shubai closely, and the two horses were both incomparable, hiding into the forest one after the other.

Suddenly an arrow sounded behind him, and a ball of fire light engulfed the sound of the wind, straight past Huang Zixian's ears, and headed towards Li Shubai in front.

Huang Zixia subconsciously called out: "Be careful!"

Her voice was still in her throat. Li Shubai had already fallen down when she heard the sound of breaking wind. He also jumped to the right along with the trend. A pine tree.

The bark of the pine tree was dry and covered with pine resin. As soon as it saw the flame, the fire suddenly rose, and the two of them were suddenly brightened in the darkening forest.

"Go!" Li Shubai ignored the burning tree and whispered to her.

Huang Zixian urged that Fusha and galloped past the tree.

Someone behind him yelled from a distance: "One black and one white immediately two, be sure to kill!" Hearing the voice, it seemed to be a Xuzhou accent.

Whoosh Lengjian shot at them, far from the momentum of the rain of arrows before. In the dim mountains and forests, they could only relied on horses and galloped away.

Out of the pine forest, there is a cliff in front of them. They can only follow the cliff and fold to the **** in front. There are no trees here, two horses galloping forward among the bushes, their hooves tripped, they lost cover, and chasing soldiers approached behind them.

Li Shubai didn't say a word, but pointed directly to another patch of forest in front of him. Huang Zixian was urging the horse to follow him. Suddenly, he heard a painful hiss from the sand under his crotch, stumbled on his feet, and the whole horse knelt forward.

It hit an arrow in its hind legs and fell heavily to the ground.

Huang Zixian couldn't help but rushed to the ground with the felled Fusha, and she was about to fall among the thorns on the ground.

She was too late to exclaim, suddenly her waist lightened, her body was hugged in the air, and she was picked up abruptly from the thorns.

Li Shubai encircled her in his arms, holding the rein in one hand and protecting her in the other. Di Evil continued to gallop, rushing towards the dark mountains and forests in front of him.

And she turned her head to look at the wailing Fusha, and thinking about the guards who had just died, she couldn't help being frightened. Looking up at Li Shubai who was holding her in his arms, he could only see that in the darkening sky, he always stared at the front, the focused and determined light in there, and the solid arms that hugged her, which made her panic. Anxiety slowly faded into invisible, leaving nothing but tranquility in my heart.

She knew that he would be able to take her to escape safely.
