Just as the two of them turned around and were about to leave, they heard Mu Jianping's cry. The two of them turned around and saw Mu Jianping clutching his calf with his right hand. He staggered and almost fell to the ground.
After Mu Jianping was injured, he did not relax. Even when he was talking to Hong Tian Xiao, he was paying attention to the battle in the field. However, when all the Qing soldiers in the field were killed and the danger was eliminated, Mu Jianping felt a sudden pain in his calf. He almost could not stand steadily.
Hong Tian Xiao saw that Mu Jianping's right trouser leg was completely soaked, but he gritted his teeth and did not make a sound. He could not help but secretly admire Mu Jianping's determination. He took out a small bottle from his bosom and came before Mu Jianping, saying,"This is the medicine I concocted for wounds. It is very effective. Please apply it on the wound first and find a place to rest for the night.”
The man with the surname Bai revealed a look of disbelief when he heard this, but he still reached out to take it. He first thanked him, then said,"I am Bai Hanfeng, and this is the young princess of our Mu King's mansion. It was all thanks to your help just now, or else the consequences would have been unimaginable. I have yet to ask for your names, so that I can repay your kindness in the future.”
"I am Hong Tian Xiao, and this is my subordinate Mao Shi Ba. We happened to pass by just now, and Hero Bai was a little too serious when he said that he saved our lives.”Hong Tian Xiao did not have a good impression of the people from the Mu Estate, so his attitude was very ordinary.
"Mao Shi Ba?" Bai Hanfeng was slightly surprised, and unconsciously glanced at Hong Tian Xiao, thinking to himself, I've heard that Mao Shi Ba has been a loner in Jianghu for many years, when did he become someone else's subordinate? He looks like he's only in his early twenties. Although his martial arts are strong, how could he take in a wild and unruly jungler like Mao Shi Ba as his subordinate?
" So it's Brother Hong and Brother Mao. This time…" Bai Hanfeng was just about to say a few more words of thanks when he suddenly saw Hong Tian Xiao's expression tense up. He made a gesture to keep quiet and hurriedly shut his mouth.
"There's a large group of soldiers coming in this direction, about two hundred of them. Brother Bai, the young princess's leg is injured, so we'd better avoid them for now.”Hong Tian Xiao tilted his head to listen for a moment, and his expression could not help changing once more.
"More than 200 soldiers?" Apart from Mao Shi Ba, who looked normal after hearing this, Bai Han Feng and Mu Jian Ping both showed a look of disbelief, especially Bai Han Feng. Although his martial arts wasn't the best among the younger generation of the Mu Prince's Mansion, his skills were the most profound, yet he hadn't heard anything.
"Once the soldiers find these corpses, they will definitely step up their investigation on the road. The young princess has a leg injury, so it is better for the two of you to hide in the small town ahead for a while. Eighteen, drive the carriage to the south and let the soldiers think that we are going south. The three of us will find a place to hide. When these soldiers chase south, we will take the opportunity to go to the small town in front. Eighteen can find us after shaking off these soldiers. Even if the Qing soldiers realized that they had been tricked, they would never expect us to be in the small town behind them.”Hong Tian Xiao pondered for a moment and thought of a brilliant idea.
"This plan is very clever, but it has troubled Brother Mao.”Although Bai Hanfeng still didn't hear any sound, his many years of Jianghu experience told him that the slight tremors on the ground indicated that there was indeed a large group of people coming in this direction in an orderly manner, and these people could only be Qing soldiers.
By the time Mao Shi Ba drove the carriage away, Hong Tian Xiao and the other two had just hidden when the soldiers had already arrived. After a while, as expected, 100 to 200 Qing soldiers arrived. Bai Hanfeng couldn't help but glance at Hong Tian Xiao again. He thought to himself," This person isn't old, but his internal energy is very deep. I just don't know which sect he is from." However, he didn't know that this was actually the marvel of the Nine Yang Divine Technique. In terms of internal energy, Hong Tian Xiao only had fifteen years of cultivation, which was about the same as Bai Hanfeng. However, the Nine Yang Divine Technique could be said to be the number one divine technique in the world. Although Hong Tian Xiao hadn't reached great success yet, his eyesight and hearing were much better than Bai Hanfeng's.
"Lord Lian, look." The Qing soldier running in front suddenly saw the corpses strewn all over the ground by the roadside and hurriedly turned around to shout.
The officer with the surname Lian hurriedly rode his horse to the front of the Qing soldier. He turned around and couldn't help but gasp. The entire empty space was almost filled with corpses. Officer Lian hurriedly jumped off his horse and came closer. He found that the more than 90 corpses were all Qing soldiers. None of them had any other clothes.
"Eh, isn't this Lord Liao?" Officer Lian suddenly saw a very familiar face.
The soldier lowered his head to take a closer look and replied,""It's Lord Liao from the Second Battalion."
"Hey, Liao Wenkai, you're eager to get the credit. When I received the secret report just now, I said that the people of the Mu Estate were very skilled and that we would go together to capture them after we joined forces. You wanted to take the credit for yourself, but you died before your ambition was fulfilled. In the future, no one in our Vanguard Battalion will be my opponent.”Not only did Lian De Lu not feel the slightest bit of grief, but he was actually secretly pleased with himself.
"Milord, didn't the secret report say that there was only one man and one woman in the Mu Estate? How could they kill Lord Liao and over ninety people?”The soldier felt strange.
"The rebels of the Mu Estate are all highly skilled in martial arts. Liao Wenkai only has himself to blame for this.”Lian De Lu rolled his eyes and said in a strange tone.
The soldier suddenly remembered that Lian Delu and Liao Wenkai had never gotten along. He was shocked and didn't dare to speak anymore.
Lian Delu thought to himself, These two rebels were actually able to kill these ninety over people. They are truly formidable. However, Liao Wenkai is not an incompetent person. These soldiers are also the elites of the Second Vanguard Battalion. Presumably, those two are already heavily injured. If I were to chase after them now, wouldn't it be a great merit?
Lian De Lu had just made up his mind when he heard a report from a scout saying that they had discovered a speeding carriage ahead. Lian De Lu was overjoyed. One of the two must have been seriously injured, so they were in a hurry to escape south. Thus, he made a prompt decision and personally led fifty cavalry to chase after them first, with the rest of the infantry following behind.
When all the Qing soldiers had gone south, the three of them came out of hiding with their horses.
"Big Brother Hong's plan to build a plank road in the open but secretly in the dark is indeed brilliant, these soldiers have all fallen for it.”Mu Jianping's face turned red as soon as he said that. In the Mu Estate, she addressed everyone as her brother and sister, but now, she actually addressed Hong Tian Xiao as Big Brother Hong.
Fortunately, Hong Tian Xiao did not hear it and only smiled slightly when he heard it,""Young Princess, you flatter me. This Lord Lian is too eager to make contributions. Brother Bai, young princess, let's go now.”
"Alright." Bai Hanfeng could be considered one of the best among the young people of the Mu Estate. He was usually extremely knowledgeable and conceited, but at this moment, he was extremely impressed by Hong Tian Xiao. He nodded his head when he heard this, but he suddenly thought of something and asked," But will Brother Mao be in danger on this trip?"”
Hong Tian Xiao did not reply, only lightly shaking his head.
