Chapter 6 Chapter Six: The Book of Smart Thieves

The head of state led the army to the outside of the city in the afternoon, but it was not until dark that he rode into the palace amidst the cheers of the townspeople who lined the road to welcome him. On both sides of the avenue leading directly to the palace, every ten steps there is a black-helmet warrior holding a torch high, illuminating the avenue brightly like two fire dragons. More than 300 warriors, including Hua Qian and I, lined up in the palace of the princess, waiting for the arrival of this person who could shake the world with a stomp. Everyone was a little nervous. The head of state's arbitrariness and arbitrariness had already been heard in everyone's ears.

Hua Qian stood beside me, her beautiful eyes drifted to my face from time to time, but I just pretended not to know. The sound of playing music sounded at the gate of the palace, letting us know that the team of the head of state is entering the gate of the palace in mighty way. when!when!when!The bell rang, and the door of the palace of the princess opened. Accompanied by Princess Liqing, the head of state finally appeared in front of him. Anyone looking directly at the Grand Führer sees only an iron shell.His whole body was wrapped in a thick golden armor, and he wore a helmet on his head that only showed his eyes. A pair of eyes flashed like lightning, and the intersecting iron branches at the mouth and nose exposed a place for ventilation. , wearing his red cloak that fell to his knees, his majestic figure made him at least half a head taller than the others, looking like a demon god who came out of hell.

My father told me that he once slashed at his body armor under the instructions of the head of state, but with his father's ability, not only could he not damage the armor, but when he slashed, the head of state's whole body only shook a little, which shows that he is far beyond ordinary people. strength. His only weakness may be his eyes, but even though he has no armor, it is not easy to stab his eyes. Thinking of this, I can't help but wonder why such an invincible demon god is still wary of the Witch Kingdom and dare not act rashly. The head of state's sharp eyes glanced at me and Hua Qian, who stood at the front of the line to welcome him, and my heart trembled for a moment, as his eyes seemed to be able to pierce my heart.

His eyes turned around on me twice, then slipped to Hua Qian's face, and then glanced at her strong and graceful body, Hua Qian immediately lowered her head, and I looked sideways at her, just in time to see her fists clenched I got up, trembling slightly, and my heart moved, I guessed that the head of state might have done some scandalous things to Hua Qian, because the head of state is a tyrant who is famous for being cruel and lascivious. The head of state stepped past us and walked towards the extra-large long table set up for him at the end of the hall. Behind him were eight beauties wrapped in soft red robes, who were his most favored concubines.

Then my whole body was shocked, and I stared blankly at the two beauties who were entering the hall.The girl on the left is charming and charming, with affectionate eyes. She is the princess of the empire and the only daughter of the head of state. She put on a soldier's tight outfit, which makes her charming and irresistible.She used to be my fiancée, but now she should hate me to the bone. In front of her, I always seem to be shorter. Another sharp look shot at my face.It came from the black widow, I just killed her lover wizard more than a month ago, I quickly restrained my mind, as long as I accidentally showed my flaws, I would never want to leave this palace tonight.

The black widow's eyes were fixed on me, as if she had discovered something, I relaxed my whole body and tried my best to forget my tension until she walked past me. But I already know that the Black Widow feels that I am the one she is looking for with a strange female sense. Maybe she is not sure yet, but I am already on the verge of danger. Behind them are the strutting brother Zhan and the valiant head of state close elite guards. The difference between them and other black helmet warriors is that there is a blood-red ring on the top of the helmet. There are thirty people in the world, but each of them is ten thousand. One of the best swordsmanship masters.Just them are enough for my headaches.

Everyone sat down at the banquet table.Surrounding the center of the hall, there are twenty-four banquet tables in the Huanbu Princess Hall. Facing the gate far away are the head of state, eight concubines and the red ring guards standing behind them. On the left hand are Princess Liqing, Commander Seven Colors, and several dignitaries from Mochiyue City, and on the right hand are the beautiful princess, Black Widow, Ge Zhan, and more than a dozen important generals of black helmet warriors. The elite of the entire empire is concentrated here, and it is indeed like a cloud of fierce generals.

I couldn't help but be thankful that I killed the wizard and cut off the most important arm of the Grand Führer. Apart from the Führer, this person is the most terrifying person. From this, I also know that I have become the No. 1 enemy of the Führer except for the witch. . I, Hua Qian and the twelve guards stood behind Princess Liqing and became her team. The beautiful court lady offered all kinds of delicacies like flowing water, and then retreated.Along with the sound of the music, a group of more than a hundred dancers floated in like colorful butterflies, singing and dancing gracefully to the music, under the translucent dance clothes, each and every attractive body made various seductive gestures, all the men salivated for a while.

My eyes quickly turned to the head of state, and I saw that although he was admiring the upturned female body in front of him, his eyes were clear and clear, and he did not look lustful like others. Brother Zhan looked at the princess from time to time, showing that the object of his desire was the princess and not anyone else.Brother Zhan is an ambitious man. Once he gets the princess, he gets the right to inherit the empire. When my eyes moved from the princess to the black widow, I just met her beautiful eyes.I was so scared that I almost turned around and ran away.It occurred to me that she knew who I was, that while I could change my face, I couldn't change my eyes, my shape, my bearing.But why hasn't she exposed me?Are you really going to tease me like a cat playing with a mouse?

After the dance, the dancing girl withdrew like a colorful cloud.The head of state raised his wine glass and said in his deep and magnetic voice: Princess Liqing has contributed a lot to the establishment of Mochiyue City, which has created today's momentum. Let us toast her. Everyone responded loudly and drank a cup.The atmosphere became lively.Princess Liqing raised her glass and said: Liqing hereby wish the empire a successful start and wipe out the Witch Kingdom. Let's drink again.Brother Zhan stood up and said in a loud voice: As long as the head of state gives Brother Zhan four legions, Brother Zhan guarantees that he can break through the Witch City and wipe out the Witch Country within ten days.

There are a total of ten legions under the head of state. Except for the first legion under the head of state, which has a strength of 100,000, the strength of each other legion is between 50,000. The strength of the four regiments has exceeded the total strength of the Witch Country.Usually, the attacking side must surpass the defending side in terms of military strength.So Brother Zhan's bold words are not empty words, and I also really want to know how the Führer will answer him. The head of state said: Brother Zhan, sit down first, I have a complete plan in my mind, and it will be implemented soon, otherwise you and I will not come to Wangyue City now. I was very surprised, with the great head of state's victorious vigor in the past, why he was so scrupulous about the Witch Country, there must be some unknown reason. Brother Zhan had already expressed his confidence and loyalty, Gu Pan sat down proudly, but looked at Princess Liqing. Princess Liqing snorted coldly. I was behind her, so I could hear it clearly. I realized that Princess Liqing and Ge Zhan were fighting for the inheritance of the empire. Brother Zhan's capital is that he is expected to marry the princess as his wife, so that he can be on an equal footing with Princess Liqing. Besides, the wizard is dead, besides the head of state and Princess Liqing, he is the most powerful person in the empire.Just now when he said that he could pacify the Witch Country, it was precisely to highlight the fact that Princess Liqing couldn't do anything about the Witch Country.Commander Seven Colors and everyone in Mochiyue City had unhappy expressions on their faces.The great head of state inside the helmet is unpredictable and profound, and it is difficult to know his mind. Princess Liqing is definitely not someone to be easily provoked, and the silver bell-like laughter rang out, attracting everyone's attention to her. Princess Liqing said lightly: I heard that Lanling's son, Lante, escaped from Sunrise City, and the commander of Brother Zhan has not been able to capture him. Even the wizard died because of helping you. What is the situation now?Brother Zhan Commander, if necessary, just speak up, and the princess will definitely assist with all his strength. This time it was the turn of Brother Zhan and several of his trusted generals to change their expressions. Although these words were polite on the surface, they were actually accusing Brother Zhan of his incompetence face to face. Even one person could not handle it, let alone the entire Witch Kingdom. When I heard my name mentioned, I couldn't help but pay attention to see how everyone reacted. The head of state still didn't know what was true, but two eyes came to me, one was from the black widow, and the other was Hua Qian who was beside me. For a moment, I couldn't help crying in my heart, not to mention the black widow, it turned out that even Hua Qian was also doubting my identity. Hua Qian had seen my real face before I pretended to be the King of Divine Power, so as long as she compared the hand-painted reward image, she should know that I was already in Moon City, but why didn't she say it? When the princess heard my name, resentment flashed in her eyes. After all, I was her fiancé. Brother Zhan is so old and treacherous, knowing that he can't argue in front of this iron-like fact, he laughed and said: If necessary, he must rely on the power of the princess. The princess trained swordsmen in Wangyue City. There must be many outstanding swordsmen in these years. Talent, can you open our eyes? The dignitaries of the empire are all bloodthirsty people from top to bottom. Fighting before the banquet is a common practice. Brother Zhan’s request can not only divert everyone’s attention, but also use the contest to humiliate Princess Liqing. Kill two birds with one stone, old and spicy Very. Of course Princess Liqing couldn't back down, and said: Ling Bai, come out and experience the skill of Commander Zhan.She named her subordinates to challenge Ge Zhan, on the one hand to belittle his identity, but on the other hand, she really hoped that Ge Zhan would take action himself and incur the humiliation of defeat.Ling Bai came out from behind the red commander. This man is sturdy and is a typical warrior who is not afraid of death. He can be named and challenged by Princess Liqing. He is naturally one of the best figures in Wangyue City. I just don’t know how Bi Naming can do it. ? When I thought of this, my heart moved. If Princess Liqing wanted the strongest man to fight, she should choose me, the fake king of power who defeated Na Ming, the number one swordsman in Wangyue City. Could it be that she really has a partiality and pity for me?Ge Zhan's ugly laughter sounded, and he said: Unless the princess personally goes off, Ge Zhan should let his subordinate Erlang play with your subordinates. There was no sound in the hall, it was like brother Zhan challenged Princess Liqing to the side, if Princess Liqing said no, it would give people the impression of weakness and timidity, this brother Zhan can be considered as cunning as a fox. I was able to escape from his hands mostly because Qi Bei was more experienced than him, but unfortunately he is dead, and there is Xiqi, an innocent girl whom I have taken as my wife. Princess Liqing's face turned cold as expected, her eyes glared fiercely, staring at Brother Zhan from a distance, Brother Zhan looked back coldly, without giving in at all. The two had a deep grudge.Swords are on the verge of breaking out in the main hall, and it is just that the mountain rain is about to come and the wind is full of the building.The Grand Head of State let out a long laugh, drawing the attention of the opposing parties back to him. He patrolled the crowd coldly, and when his eyes fell on a certain person's face, that person couldn't help lowering his head in fear, even Ge Zhan and Princess Liqing also lowered their eyes, not daring to look at him intentionally , under the majesty of the head of state, everyone can only live in humbleness and humiliation. The head of state said to Ling Bai who was standing in the field: Young man, what is your name? Ling Bai tremblingly said: The villain is Ling Bai, the deputy commander of the Red Camp. The head of state shouted: Good!If you can win this game, I will give you a hundred gold coins. Ling Bai suddenly promised that one hundred gold coins can buy three female slaves, which is a considerable amount of wealth.I was secretly startled, the great head of state resolved the impasse just now with an understatement, and he really is a hero. The noisy atmosphere returned to the hall.At this time, it was Brother Zhan's turn to choose someone to appear on the stage. After a pair of fierce eyes wandered around for a while, Brother Zhan clapped his palms twice. Behind him was a thin and tall soldier with a straight back. He was about thirty years old. Walking into the open space in the center of the hall, he knelt down to the head of state, and said respectfully: Wu Yuanshen, commander of the third army of the villain black helmet warriors, ask the head of state to approve the battle order. The head of state said lightly: If you win, you can also get a hundred gold coins.Wu Yuanshen made a promise, stood up, and put on a posture towards Ling Bai who was facing him from afar. Clang!Clang!Both swords were unsheathed at the same time.I saw that Wu Yuanshen didn't have any expression on his face, and I felt bad. Ling Bai's bravery is his strength and also his weakness. If he can't rush to conquer the enemy in the first round, once his bravery is over, it will be the beginning of exhaustion. .And Wu Yuanshen is exactly the kind of cold-blooded and ruthless swordsman who is full of tenacity and has a long stamina. In the selection of the party, Brother Zhan showed his thoughts. clang!The swords of the two struck together.All of a sudden, the white sword glowed brightly, and rolled towards Wu Yuanshen like a storm. Wu Yuanshen seemed to have lost the game. He waited hard and kept retreating. It will consume Ling Bai's stamina. On the side of Princess Liqing, the people led by Seven Colors screamed loudly like intoxicated, cheering for Ling Bai who belonged to him. Instead, Princess Liqing and Hua Qian frowned, seeing something was wrong.Sure enough, when Wu Yuanshen retreated to the twenty-third step, Ling Bai's sword stopped for a moment.Wu Yuanshen yelled, and the sword light exploded, four consecutive swords, forcing Ling Bai to the left and right, retreating steadily, when Wu Yuanshen thrust out the seventeenth sword, Ling Bai let out a scream. The sword fell to the ground, his left hand covered the right arm holding the sword, and he staggered back. Wu Yuanshen did not pursue, but raised his sword in salute to the head of state.Someone rushed out at that moment and helped Ling Bai out of the hall.I was secretly angry at Wu Yuanshen's viciousness. This seemingly light sword actually broke the tendon of Ling Bai's right arm. From now on, this brave young man will never use his right hand to wield a sword. This also shows that Ge Zhan and Li Qing There is a merciless struggle between Master Shao.Deafening cheers erupted from the battlers. On the other hand, Princess Liqing's people all showed frustrated and humiliated expressions.Brother Zhan flaunted his might and said: Princess, among your subordinates, who else is interested in a competition with Wu Yuanshen? Princess Liqing gritted her teeth, and looked at the generals and soldiers on her side, and saw that everyone was avoiding her gaze intentionally or unintentionally. Obviously, no one wanted to fight such an uncertain battle, and what happened to Ling Bai was also a shock to them. Terrified. Assuming Princess Liqing couldn't save face, she would never even think about raising her head in front of Brother Zhan.The eyes in the mask of the great head of state flashed with a cruel and excited light, and he was not disobedient at all because his subordinates killed each other. At this moment, I shouted: Let me come!Every eye in the hall was focused on me. I didn't dare to meet the eyes of the princess and the black widow. I walked out of the open space in the center of the hall from behind Princess Liqing, turned around and asked for instructions from Princess Liqing. Princess Liqing called out coquettishly. Dao: The head of state, please approve his guard, the king of divine power, to fight. In my heart, I secretly praised Princess Liqing as worthy of being a hero among women, because I suddenly asked for a fight, which had already created a certain momentum. If I still had to wait for Princess Liqing's approval first, and then ask the head of state for instructions, it would weaken the cohesive momentum. Now Princess Liqing asks the head of state for approval on my behalf. As long as the head of state agrees, I can immediately attack and attack Wu Yuanshen who is still arrogant. The head of state chuckled and shouted: As you please! Clang!The long sword was unsheathed. After I paid tribute to the head of state, I looked sideways at Wu Yuanshen, and slowly pointed the tip of the long sword in my hand at the swordsman. A strong murderous aura filled the hall. The humiliated group of Princess Liqing let out deafening cheers and cheers. Wu Yuanshen put on a stance, under my imposing manner and momentum, he has fallen into a complete passivity, what troubles him especially is that he is completely ignorant of my reality, this is a big taboo in swordsmen's confrontation. Everyone screamed hoarsely.My mind was concentrated on Wu Yuanshen, as if he was the only one left in the world. Puff puff!I changed from sideways to frontal body, and as I slowly took three heavy steps, I was only ten feet away from Wu Yuanshen. Wu Yuanshen yelled violently, reversed his previous strategy against Ling Bai, and made the main attack first, the tip of the sword hummed and trembled, and rushed towards my throat like a poisonous dragon. I secretly praised in my heart, this person is worthy of being a master, he has seen that I can no longer let me maintain enough sword power, so he turned from defense to offense.But it's a pity that his opponent is the son trained by Lan Ling, who is known as the number one swordsman in the empire. Especially the experience of escaping from Sunrise City has trained me to be the most cunning and terrifying of Lan Ling and Qi Beiwai swordsman.Otherwise, the sorcerer wouldn't die at my hands, brother Zhan wouldn't suffer a big loss, and I wouldn't be able to sneak in here and openly show off my power in front of those who want to put me to death.My sword's momentum didn't accelerate at all, nor did it slow down at all, as if I had already predicted that the opponent would rush to attack. With a ding from the long sword, it pierced the tip of Wu Yuanshen's imposing sword.Wu Yuanshen's whole body was shaken, and he staggered back.The whole hall was suddenly silent. My whole body didn't shake at all, and I continued to force Wu Yuanshen who was retreating as if nothing had happened, with a soft moan in my mouth. Assuming Wu Yuanshen is cunning enough, the best way at the moment is to abandon the sword and admit defeat, then I can't kill him, and I can't hurt him, but the most important thing for a swordsman is his reputation, and his life is secondary.Sure enough, Wu Yuanshen let out a stern voice, and the blade of the sword turned into a hundred points of light, and sprinkled it on me. I accurately estimated the angle and speed of the killing hidden in his false and solid sword posture, and tilted my body slightly, the long sword danced at a sudden speed, changed from chopping to slashing, and then from slashing to stabbing, attacking him . Under the urging of sword energy, the air in the hall became heavy and cold. clang clang! I quickly moved back, and in an instant the distance between me and Wu Yuanshen was extended to more than twenty feet, which was in sharp contrast to my steady and slow movement just now. Hundreds of people in the audience were silent.Wu Yuanshen stood still, his eyes shot fierce light, staring at me from a distance, the long sword was raised flat on his chest, slightly tilted upward, the long sword trembled. Suddenly, blood gushed out from between his right arm, and flowed down the armor to his arm and body.Wu Yuanshen's face turned pale, the long sword fell to the ground, and his body was on the verge of falling. This time it was the turn of Princess Liqing's side to cheer and applaud, and everyone in Brother Zhan's face was ashamed. Unless Brother Zhan took action himself, the opponent had no chance of winning the game. I salute the head of state and Princess Liqing. Princess Liqing's eyes flashed with joy, and she said happily: You were also injured. I looked at the wound on my left elbow under my shirt, a little blood was oozing out, I said without frowning: flesh wounds, nothing serious.He secretly thought that if I didn't hurt on purpose, Wu Yuanshen's sword wouldn't touch my skin at all. At this time Wu Yuanshen has been helped to heal his wounds, my sword is very measured, his arm is also like Ling Bai's, he will never be able to wield a sword in this lifetime. The head of state laughed and said: One wins one, our empire has produced a large number of talents, and the recovery of the witch country is just around the corner. Princess Liqing was relentless when she gained power, raised her glass and said: I wish the head of state great achievements and conquer the world. Everyone drank heavily.I walked behind Princess Liqing. Princess Liqing said with pity: You leave the table first, and come back after dressing up. I would like to say this, in fact, I was injured on purpose, just to find an excuse to leave the scene, so as to carry out my big conspiracy, because both the black widow and Hua Qian could already see through my identity, although I don't know why they Don't expose me, but in order to avoid long nights and dreams, I will take advantage of the golden opportunity when all the dignitaries gather here to steal the Wisdom Code, and then try to sneak out of the Princess Palace, and then flee to the Witch Kingdom. I took the order and went straight out of the hall.The seven-color commanders gave me a glance of respect, and the power of the first battle made me a popular person at that time.I stepped out of the palace gate and walked through two rows of more than a hundred black-helmet warriors. Leaving the Palace of the Princess, I immediately walked to the Palace of Wisdom, and the guards along the way were all respectful to me. The Wisdom Palace is located to the west of the Princess Palace, far away from the two main gates in the east and south. Even if you steal the Wisdom Code, it will take a lot of trouble to escape from the palace. The front of the hall was as usual, with strict guards. I avoided the two teams of patrolling warriors and went to the back of the hall. When I met Princess Liqing for the first time, I was deeply impressed when I saw her personal guards leave from a passage behind the hall.If I can find the secret path, I can escape the guards at the gate of the palace and sneak into the palace. Every palace in the Princess Palace has its own independent garden, and the Wisdom Palace is no exception. Tonight's moon is big and round, and under the moonlight, the green grass is shining with green light, and the shadows of the trees are projected on the ground. The world of the back garden is unified by light and color. I quickly but carefully investigated and calculated the possible location of the secret passage, and finally came to a clearing in the woods. What attracted me here was because the empty grass that opened out of the dense forest was in harmony with the entire garden. The layout is a bit out of place.I trampled on the grass with my feet, and finally I found a four-foot-square area, and there was a hollow feeling inside. I found the secret path to the Temple of Wisdom.I inspected the grass carefully, and saw two rings in the grass. I stretched out my hand to grab it, and was about to lift it. My heart moved, and I thought: Is this too easy?I am very close to the stage of success, and must not fall short. With the help of the moonlight, I found that the color of the bottom of the ring is slightly different from other parts, which should be caused by friction. It can only be the remnant of the ring’s friction with the iron plate at the bottom entrance when it rotates. Looking at the texture of the scratches, the one on the right should turn from left to right, while the one on the left should turn from right to left. Without further ado, I immediately turned the ring according to my observation.After the squeak, there was another sound. The door of the secret passage opened. I don't know what the consequences would be if I opened the door in the wrong way, but it would not be a good thing anyway. I pulled it hard, and it rotated up against the iron plate at the entrance, revealing the entrance of the secret passage. There was a faint light in the tunnel, and I secretly praised it in my heart. This proves that the tunnel has perfect ventilation equipment, otherwise the lights would last forever. I jumped in carefully, and quickly entered the two walls that only one person can pass through. After a while, I entered the empty palace of wisdom through the exit at the other end. Indescribable loneliness and neglect. When I first came to this hall that day, I had carefully observed the layout of the hall, and the most likely hidden place where the Wisdom Code is stored should be Princess Liqing's bed covered with animal skins. The animal skins covered more than ten square meters beside the bed. feet.When I lifted the animal skin, I couldn't help cheering, a stone step led down, and I went down to a vast basement. In the middle of the basement was a table, on which an iron box was placed. My heart beat wildly. When I walked to the door, I opened the lid of the box, and the six characters of the manuscript of Wisdom Code came into view. eye. Six volumes of Wisdom Code lie quietly in the box.There was a burst of excitement in my heart. It was the original six books of wisdom that turned my father and Qi Bei into enemies. It was also these six books that made the Witch Kingdom and the Empire prosper successively, and taught people on the earth unknown. Precious knowledge, including architecture , Cast iron, papermaking, mathematics, Chinese and other innumerable things are the source of civilization in the entire world. I picked up the six booklets, put them in the bag I had prepared earlier, and tied them on my back. I swore that as long as I was alive, I would not allow anyone to take them from me. I returned to the Wisdom Palace from the stone steps, and when I climbed out from the exit, I suddenly felt uncomfortable. A pair of stern eyes stared at me.Hua Qian stood about ten feet away, staring at me closely.A chill ran through my heart. Hua Qian said: What is on your back?Lord Rand.I suppressed the fear and surprise in my heart, and looked at Hua Qian calmly. Her sword was still in the sheath, and it seemed that she was alone. Of course, as long as she screamed, the guards would be flooded Come here. I stood in front of her, looked into her big bright eyes, and said softly: When did you see through my identity? Hua Qian said: When you defeated Namin, I already recognized you. Your eyes are full of anger and resentment. Once I see you, it is unforgettable.Her tone was surprisingly calm, which made me feel even more unpredictable. I sighed, and suddenly rushed forward, stabbing her throat with the long sword in my hand.She didn't move, she didn't even blink her eyes, my sword was only an inch away from her throat, and I couldn't stab it. I said coldly: Why don't you scream or resist? Hua Qian stared at me with pretty eyes, with complicated emotions flowing inside her, she said quietly: Don't you understand my feelings for you? My heart was shocked, and I withdrew my long sword. Although Hua Qian looked strong and indifferent on the outside, what was surging inside was boundless enthusiasm. I said: what are you going to do?Princess Liqing treats you well. Hua Qian lowered her head and said, "That doesn't make up for the damage the Grand Master has done to me. I've been waiting for this day for three years." I thought to myself that it was as expected, and said: What did the Great Führer do? Hua Qian avoided my gaze and said: Hurry up!Let's go now. I said: Do you know where I am going? Hua Qian raised her head, her eyes were firm, and she said in a deep voice: No matter where you go, my only request is to stay by your side. I was moved in my heart. With Hua Qian, the chance of escaping from the Princess Palace is 100%. I followed closely behind Hua Qian and swaggered straight out of the palace gate. The guards saluted us respectfully. As soon as they left the palace gate, the two horses spread their hooves, and they had to run northward. They encountered patrolling black-helmed guards from time to time along the way, but when they saw Hua Qian, who was the most popular person next to the princess, who would dare to stop them? ?When they reached the north of the city, Hua Qian called to open the city gate, then walked across the barracks outside the city in a big way, and soon walked into the uninhabited wilderness. The great river that separates the borders of the Witch Country and the Empire is called the Mochizuki River by the people of the Empire, but the people of the Witch Country call it the Witch River, rushing rumbling ahead.On the upper right, you can vaguely see the huge fleet of the empire, with its flags flying, which is extremely spectacular.Hua Qian and I galloped downstream. The roar of the rushing water continued to expand.Hua Qian suddenly shouted: They are coming after you. I listened carefully, and the wind blowing from Wangyue City was indeed mixed with the sound of galloping war horses. I was horrified, not only surprised that the other party found out that the Wisdom Code had been stolen so quickly, but also surprised that they were able to catch up so quickly, showing an efficient communication method. In my mind, Lily explained to me the escape route for stealing the Wisdom Code, and shouted: Come with me!Be the first to ride the horse and run wildly. The earth retreated swiftly before us, forest after forest, and we advanced as fast as we could over a wilderness of undergrowth and forest. The war horse is foaming at the mouth, and its physical strength is close to the limit of exhaustion. It will fall to the ground and die at any time. That is also the coming of our end. Finally came to the Witch River.The rushing river flows endlessly, and the far opposite bank is dark and lifeless. There is no pick-up ship as Lily said.We rode our horses and galloped downstream, running along this natural barrier that separated the two military forces. The horses suddenly rushed forward. , it is known that the horse died suddenly when it couldn't support it. Hua Qian rode her horse and ran from behind, stretching out her hand to pull me.I took her hand, borrowed some strength, and jumped on the back of the horse. Her horse was extremely handsome, and she galloped tenaciously along the lower reaches, but judging by the white foam sprayed from the livestock, it could not last long. I turned my head and looked in the direction of Wangyue City. A little bit of red flame was moving. There might be more than a thousand people chasing us. That was an irresistible force for us. Downstream is dark, where is the boat that Lily said would take me across the river? Snapped!Finally, Jianma couldn't hold it any longer, and knelt down on his front hooves, throwing us both off the ground. We got up from the ground in embarrassment, and the pursuers got closer, and we could already hear the sharp sound of horseshoes, like thunder caught in a storm, beating rapidly and continuously into our anxious hearts. Hua Qian shouted: Look!A light flickered hundreds of feet downstream.I ran first, Hua Qian was weaker, panting and chasing after me. Ouch! Looking back, Hua Qian fell to the ground exhausted.I threw myself on her side.Hua Qian gasped and said, "Go away!"Leave me alone.Two teardrops welled up in her beautiful eyes, reminding me of the dead Xiqi, they all loved me so much. With a burst of excitement, he picked her up by the waist with one hand, stumbled and ran towards the place where the lights appeared.Hua Qian hugged my neck tightly, and buried her pretty face on my shoulder. In this selfish world that only seeks personal interests, my actions that don't care about life and death moved her very much. The pursuers are getting closer.I yelled in my heart, there is still a hundred feet left, I must cheer up.A large ship with a length of more than a hundred feet and full sails has begun to unmoor and leave the shore. My father who was tortured, Qi Bei who was killed, and Xiqi who was killed before she passed her youth flashed through my mind. Power flowed into my exhausted body from nowhere. With a loud cry, I suddenly accelerated , passing a distance of nearly a hundred feet in the blink of an eye.At this time the ship just left the shore. With momentum, I straddled the gap between the shore and the sailboat and leaped onto the deck. As soon as their feet touched the deck, both of them rolled to the ground.Ma Yuan's voice yelled: sail at full speed.The sound of hoofbeats resounded on the shore. In a blur, only strong hands dragged me off the deck, followed by the sound of arrows piercing through the air. But the big ship continued to accelerate, and my heart felt heavy. I couldn't hold on anymore and passed out.
