After a day of rain, it finally stopped in the evening. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info the willows on the moon, and the nine gates of Wuchang City were closed together, and this large area from the city wall to the Yangtze River suddenly quieted down. It's just that the river is still rushing and roaring, and the more silent the night, the more real the sound of the waves will be heard, and the more uneasy it will become.

Zhu Youzhen and Li Zhenyan turned out of a small forest next to the official road, tied the two horses to the stump, and then walked slowly towards the river quietly. At this time, the official road was empty, and they didn't dare to walk on it, it was too conspicuous. Therefore, I had to walk through the jungle after the rain, and after a while, I got wet. When the night breeze blows, it is even more uncomfortable than being drenched in the rain.

"Lord Wang, why don't you listen to my advice?" Li Zhenyan saw that Zhu Youzhen was shivering, and couldn't help but feel distressed and complained, "Although there are not many people in the shop of the Huanghai Merchant Gang in Wuchang, there are still seven or eight people. Even if you are afraid of startling the grass and refuse to report to the official, you should go to the store to take shelter first, let the guys protect you, and Zhenyan will do the things on the embankment herself. ”

Zhu Youzhen smiled bitterly: "Zhenyan, I know that you feel sorry for me, and I also know that I don't know martial arts, if you make a move, it will still be a burden to you." But this matter is so important that if you make me sit in the city, how can I sit still? Besides, although you and I have not officially visited the church to get married, it is only a matter of time. I am a man's family, how can I let my beloved wife go on an adventure alone? ”

"As for the merchants' shops, I think it's better not to go." Zhu Youzhen saw that Li Zhenyan was still puffed up, and hurriedly said with a hippie smile, "You see that I am used to being intimate with you, but the guys don't know our relationship yet." In case people look at it, the gang leader and the deputy gang leader sneak to Wuchang to hook their shoulders and hug each other, what kind of system is this, hehehe. ”

Li Zhenyan was teased by Zhu Youzhen, blushed, shook off his unruly hand, and walked forward quickly. Zhu Youzhen hurriedly trotted all the way and shouted in a low voice: "Zhenyan, slow down!" Wait, husband! ”

Suddenly, Li Zhenyan stood still, and Zhu Youzhen couldn't hold back and almost hit her. Before Zhu Youzhen could react, Li Zhenyan suddenly dragged him down in the grass, lowered her voice and said, "Don't make a noise, there are people on the official road!" ”

Zhu Youzhen was startled, quickly held his breath, and looked nervously at the official road. Sure enough, I saw two groups of black shadows rushing towards this side from the direction of Wuchang City and Jiang'an respectively, and they quickly converged.

I saw that these people were dressed in night clothes, covered with black veils, only their noses and eyes were exposed, and in their hands were all three-foot steel knives, which reflected a cold light under the moonlight.

"Liu Xueli, how did you do it, what about the fifth child?" Among the black-clothed men who came from the riverside, a leader-like person was the first to speak hurriedly.

"If you turn back, since the two of them came out of the inn, the lowly has been secretly following behind." A black-clothed man from Wuchang City hurriedly lowered his head and replied, "But as soon as we followed near the Hanyang Gate, a large group of people suddenly came out asking for rice and flowers, pestering us to ask for copper plates. Because there are people coming and going in the market, it is difficult to do it, so after such a toss, the fifth child will disappear! Humble duty..."

"Smack!" The "stall head" suddenly rounded up and gave this "lowly position" a big mouth that resounded in the sky, and at the same time raised the steel knife to slash and said, "Waste, I'll fucking kill you!" There are nearly twenty of you, and you can't even keep an eye on two of you, so what's the use of you? The overseer will hold you accountable, and even this seat will make you move your head! ”

"Despicable" ate this slap, half of his face was swollen, but he didn't dare to say a word, but he only said resignedly: "Despicable duty, despicable duty!" However, just now they found their horses in the woods next to the official road, and I think they didn't go far. ”

"It seems that the fifth child is quite clever, he has discovered us!" The "stall head" pondered for a moment, and shouted angrily, "Search for me!" Be sure to find the two of them today, no matter who finds them first, and hack me to death immediately! Take off the heads of the two, and there will be a lot of rewards for this seat; If you let them slip away, hmph, you'll all cut yourselves! ”

"Yes!" The men in black agreed in unison, and then began to scatter and search.

Zhu Youzhen, who was in the grass, turned pale at the moment. From the sporadic conversations of the men in black, as well as words such as "stall head" and "overseer", he had already guessed that this group of men in black was the fan of Dongchang! As for the "old five" in their mouths, it is naturally themselves. Looks like they're going to take their own lives! Zhu Youzhen just couldn't understand that he and Li Zhenyan had been cautious along the way, how could they be targeted by Dongchang fans?

But at this time, there was no time to think about it, because four or five fans had already gone straight to the hiding place of the two. Seeing that it was inevitable to be discovered, Li Zhenyan clenched the steel sword she had just bought from the city this afternoon, and at the same time motioned Zhu Youzhen to run quickly with her eyes!

At this critical moment, I suddenly heard the sound of chaotic footsteps on the official road in the direction of Wuchang City. The attention of those Dongchang fans was immediately attracted to the past, and they saw dozens of black-clothed people rushing over with sharp blades in their hands.

"Stop! Who are you? Yes!!! A fan stepped forward to interrogate, but he was caught off guard by the man in black who was in the lead, and pierced the lower abdomen with a sword!

"Damn, I know there's something going on here!" The "stall head" said angrily, "Liu Xueli, this seat orders you to destroy all these chaotic parties!" ”

The "lowly position" named Liu Xueli shouted loudly when he heard the order, and rushed forward with a knife, and dozens of Dongchang fans also swarmed up. The group on the opposite side also showed no weakness, and the formation of "hula" dispersed, surrounding these fans in the heart. A hand-to-hand life-and-death struggle has begun!

"It's... What's going on? Looking at the sword light and sword shadow in front of him, Zhu Youzhen said in a daze, "It's Dongchang who wants to kill us, but who is the other group?" ”

"Lord Wang, don't worry so much, it's important to run for your life quickly!" Li Zhenyan said and pulled up Zhu Youzhen and ran, Zhu Youzhen also suddenly woke up, and ran desperately to the river.

Their run alarmed the Dongchang stall leader. I saw that his eyes were full of light, and he said with a cruel smile: "So it's here, let's go!" As he spoke, he led several people to chase after him.

Although Zhu Youzhen's physique is much stronger than in the past, and he runs wildly, he has no martial arts foundation after all, and he is out of breath after running for a while. Seeing that the pursuers were getting closer and closer, Li Zhenyan raised her eyebrows, and said sharply to Zhu Youzhen: "Lord Wang, run to the river, if you really can't jump into the river, you can jump into the river and swim over!" ”

As she spoke, she turned around suddenly, and the horizontal sword blocked the way of the pursuers!
