C116 (2/2)

”Get out of the way!”

The group of soldiers were injured and fell to the ground. A few of them barely avoided death, but didn't have the courage to block Xia Li anymore. They ran to the side and watched helplessly as Xia Li and Sun Chun ran out of the city gate.

”Shoot!” ”Fire!” An Ting who was lying on the city wall in ambush saw the two escaping and immediately started to surround and attack the next group.

Countless arrows shot out like rain, straight towards Sun Chun's horse.

”Ugh!” Behind her, Sun Chun heard a muffled groan as she jumped onto Xia Li's body, shocking her to the point that her body trembled.

”Are you hurt?” Xia Li asked worriedly. She pinched the horse's belly and turned to look at the incoming arrows, supporting Sun Chun's body, she held the reins with him, controlling the direction of the horses.

”It's alright, I … ”I can still hold on.” Sun Chun's back was hit by an arrow, and blood flowed out from the wound little by little. The intense pain tortured his mind, making him unable to concentrate and control everything.

”Then lean on me, I'll help you!” Just as Xia Li finished speaking, the horse suddenly started to jump. When Xia Li turned around, he found that the horse had been hit by an arrow on its butt.

”Xia Li!”

Sun Chun shouted loudly. The moment the two of them fell, Xia Li protected him well, and as he was under's body, his head knocked against a rock and he lost consciousness. Fortunately, the arrow on his back did not get hit, so his heart veins were temporarily protected.

”The two of them have fallen from their horses. Surround them!” An Ting was extremely excited, the heavens were on his side, hence he was unable to let them escape.

”Yes, my lord!”

Be it the constables or the city guards, all of them rushed forward, with Hu Yong and An Ting following closely behind.

”Xia Li, wake up!” Sun Chun lied beside Xia Li and kept on calling out to her.

”Stop shouting, she is already dead. Don't worry, I will send you to reunite with her in a while.” An Ting turned his fat body, gasped for breath, and said while pointing at Sun Chun.

”Is that so?” Sun Chun sneered. Even though he had already lost a lot of blood and his mental strength had weakened a bit, he still maintained his last bit of clarity.

”You're about to die, and you're still being stubborn!” Hu Yong waved his hand, and a few soldiers walked over, wanting to catch Sun Chun, but because of the throwing knives in his hands, they did not dare to rush forward.

”Put down the throwing knives in your hands, or I'll shoot you into a sieve!” Hu Yong pointed to the archers behind him.

He was not afraid at all, it was just that Xia Li did not know any martial arts and he was truly worried that he would hurt her. Sun Chun hesitated for a moment, but in front of everyone, he still handed over his flying dagger.

A soldier took the chance and kicked Sun Chun, causing him to fall to the ground.

Sun Chun endured the discomfort in his chest and struggled to lie on the ground, not allowing his back to touch the ground.

Just as An Ting and Hu Yong thought that they had succeeded, a carriage came over from afar. Four or five men in black, with their faces covered, easily kicked the officials who were in a circle out, helping Xia Li and Sun Chun get on the carriage.

”Release the arrows!” Do not let anyone go! ” Hu Yong hid behind the archers and shouted.

”Escort the horse carriage first, I'll cut off the rear!” A tall man in black jumped into the carriage and rushed out. The tall man grabbed his long sword and knocked down a number of bows and arrows, and immediately jumped onto the injured horse, and pulled out the bow and arrows on the horse's back. The horse screamed in pain, and ran forward crazily, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

”Lord?”

The remaining people saw that Sun Chun and his group were saved, and chased them all the way back without any results, and dejectedly returned in front of An Ting and Hu Yong.

”Brother Hu, what should we do? Everyone ran away!” An Ting remembered that he looked like an ant on a hot pan, his face filled with worry.

”Trash!” Send people to chase them, seal off several paths to Qingzhou! Can they even go up to the sky? ” This time, Hu Yong was really angered to death, the duck in his mouth was snatched away right in front of his eyes, yet he had no choice.

”What are you guys doing here? Go find someone!” An Ting became angry from the embarrassment, went up and kicked a few of the soldiers, urging them to continue searching for people.

”Yes, yes, my lord!” The rest of the soldiers did not dare delay any further and took a few horses to chase after Xia Li and the rest.

”Archers! All of you, ride your horses and chase after them!” Hu Yong pointed to the person behind him and ordered.

”Yes, Grandpa Hu!” The leader of the archers brought a group of people and followed Xia Li and his group in the direction they had escaped in.

The chaotic city gate finally quieted down, the spectators had long escaped without a trace when Xia Li and was fighting with the people from County Yamen, everyone's eyes lit up, they knew that the people from County Yamen would definitely cause trouble.

”Brother Hu, are we being too passive this time? That stinky brat Xia Li was able to struggle free from our grasp time and time again. Who exactly is helping her?” An Ting's face was full of confusion and could not help but ask Hu Yong.

”I'm not too sure either. I just feel that this matter is not that simple. If that girl doesn't die, then I won't be able to sleep peacefully for a whole day.” A hint of worry flashed past Hu Yong's blurry eyes, with his hands behind his back, he paced back and forth on the spot.

”Actually, my people found some knockout medicine within the imperial prison last night. It was at that time that Lee's and Xia Qing were secretly rescued by people.” An Ting said guiltily.

”Why did you only say that now! Didn't you say to lock them up alone for protection? ” Hu Yong's face was ashen, his fingers trembling.
