This time the enemy was a bit fierce and came in a hurry, which Ming Jin had not expected, so she was in a bit of a panic and the guards were afraid that she would not be able to bear it.
The most important thing is that he has a feeling that the other party will catch up soon.
Because birds were flying in the forest behind.
Ming Jin also saw it.
At first these people hid in the stream, naturally dormant and hidden, but now they are in a hurry to chase and kill them, and they don't care about this, alarming countless birds in the mountains.
If you catch up, you won't be able to stop them at all.
The guard was a little nervous and was ready to die.
"Don't panic. I remember that there is a peak ahead. There is a suspension bridge connecting the two peaks. Just destroy the suspension bridge after passing it. Give me the small waist knife first."
Although he was out of breath and exhausted from running away, Mingjin still relied on his will to calmly remind him. Suddenly, the guard suddenly had a backbone and understood why Mingjin was so clear about the escape route and just walked this way.
With the destination in mind, even though Mingjin was not fast and was lagging behind, he still made it to the suspension bridge with the help of the guards, but he had just stepped onto the suspension bridge.
"Girl, be careful!"
Ming Jin was pushed away by the guards, and Kankan grabbed the chain of the suspension bridge to maintain stability during the shaking. She looked down and saw that the cliff below seemed to be twisted, which made her eyes dizzy. She had to force herself to calm down. When she turned around, she could see the bottom.
The pursuer hadn't arrived yet, but the archer's arrows had already shot through the air. The guard noticed her in time and pushed her away.
"Walk!"
The guard turned around and waved his sword to block the arrow. Ming Jin did not hold back and ran decisively towards the side peak of the bridge.
The sound below was already very obvious. I could vaguely hear the voices of the pursuers calling each other up. I finally rushed to the bridge. Ming Jin held a small waist knife. When he saw that the guard holding a knife and arrows was approaching the bridge, he started to use force.
Cut the thick rope end at one end of the sling, but the dangerous thing is that the opponent's archer has already climbed onto the bridge platform at the other end. When he saw Ming Jin's movements, he knew her intention and quickly stopped her.
Two archers stood there and shot arrows, one aimed at the guard and tried to kill him, and the other aimed at Ming Jin.
Buzz!!
"Girl!" the guard was very frightened.
"Don't worry about me, they want me alive and they won't kill me."
Ming Jin shouted low, and sure enough, the arrows she shot landed on the ground half way up the wall beside her. The guard suddenly felt certain in his heart, and was about to rush to the bridge, but saw that the other archers had already put away their bows and arrows, and were about to go to the bridge.
While running, if they really wanted to kill people, they would throw arrows in groups over there, which would be enough to kill them, especially their own girls. Sure enough, they would throw a rat weapon at them in order to survive.
But if they are allowed to run over like this...
The guard wanted to go over and help cut the rope, but he also wanted to intercept the other party on the bridge, and was torn for a while.
At this moment, Ming Jin, who was busy cutting the rope, suddenly saw that the direction of the arrows from the opposite side had changed. They were neither directed at himself nor at the guards, but instead...
Buzz!!
The arrow pierced the ground, and the tall man who appeared out of nowhere dodged dangerously. His clean robes were stained with dirt on the ground, but he ignored the dirt and rushed over quickly.
boom!!
There was a sound of a powerful ax chopping, and Ming Jin saw the other person's face clearly, and felt familiar at a glance.
"Mr. Xu?"
"Let's talk about it later, let's get out of danger first."
Xu Qiubai didn't even look at Ming Jin. He only used his white palms that usually held books to release scrolls and chopped the bridge rope with all his strength. Thanks to his ax, which was much sharper than a small waist knife, he chopped half of it in two or three strokes.
When the arrow came, he raised his eyes and was very keen. He grabbed the pillar where the sling was anchored to the ground and ducked sideways.
The arrow was stuck firmly on the pillar, and the tail trembled slightly. He gripped the ax tightly and struck it down with all his strength.
Bang! When the ax went down for the last time, crash!
One side of the suspension bridge collapsed, and the guards on the bridge and some people on the other side suddenly became unstable. This also gave the guards, who were one against three in extremely dangerous situations, an opportunity.
Because almost in the breath before Xu Qiubai started to cut it off, Ming Jin called out.
"return!"
The guard retreated bravely and found an opportunity. When the opponent was unable to cope with the shaking, he grabbed the railing in advance and jumped back, thus widening the distance between him and the opponent.
But also at this time...
Wow!
Several arrows were fired from the opposite side, especially one of them, which was fast and fierce, and was actually aimed at Ming Jin.
It wasn't to interfere or threaten, but to really target her body.
Even if it doesn't kill her, it will still seriously injure her.
What a cruel heart!
Ming Jin was so focused on the guards that she was distracted and failed to notice. When she noticed it, at a glance, in addition to the arrow, there were many more people on the opposite side of her eyes, all of them fierce.
Sure enough, the opponent's men and horses all caught up, and one of them was very conspicuous, tall, arrogant, and full of evil aura. He was holding a bow and arrow in one hand and aiming at her side.
When she saw this scene, it was like a glimpse of ten thousand years, between life and death.
The arrow has actually arrived.
After all, she is a boudoir woman. It is one thing to be mentally alert, but another thing to be physically and mentally fit.
It was too late to hide, so I could only watch the arrow...
puff!!
The arrow penetrated deeply into his shoulder, and the sound of tearing cloth and flesh with the sharp arrow could be heard in his ears.
Ming Jin's pupils dilated, and he felt that his body was covered by the tall figure in front of him, and he fell back.
boom!!
Her back should have hit the pillar, but a slender and strong arm went around her waist, upwards from her slender back, and placed a large palm on the back of her head, blocking the impact for her.
For a moment, she seemed to be embraced by a green mountain.
But Mingjin heard the penetration sound and smelled the smell of blood.
The familiar clear fragrance of books in the past is mixed with blood, and the smell is really disturbing.
She looked up, and before she could see whether Xu Qiubai was in pain after being hit by the arrow, she saw that the other party was blocking her behind him with his injured arm, and he was holding an ax with one hand behind her to chop the rope.
On the opposite side, there were already several people running wildly on the ropes, and the closest ones were almost at the bridge. It was just the guards who were holding on to their injuries and were stuck there fighting for their lives.
The suspension bridge is narrow, and one person can occupy the ground to block it, one against three, but even if the opponent has more people, because half of the ropes have broken, the load-bearing capacity is insufficient, and the shaking is severe. Even though the opponent has many people and Wuyangyang occupies a large area on the opposite side, there will be no
Dare to go on the bridge too much.
The tall man also gave the order and did not blindly let people get on the bridge. But when the arrows were loaded on the bow strings, the other archers also wanted to fire arrows...
"Quick! Come here quickly!"
Suddenly several strong men appeared, dressed like guards, each carrying an axe, and rushed to the bridge to chop with all their might.
"Damn it, where did these people come from!"
"Quickly rewind...go back..."
The words are not finished yet.
There was a violent cracking sound, and the rope bridge was finally broken at both ends. The whole thing was unbalanced, and the bridge deck drooped. Those who were still blocked by the guards on the bridge and could not reach the peak only screamed in horror, and then disappeared from sight, and then disappeared from sight.
Falling down the broken suspension bridge.
Immediately afterwards, there was a loud bang, and the hanging bridge body of the suspension bridge hit the opposite cliff and hung faintly.
As for the people, they have long since disappeared.
The large group of people on the opposite side were frightened. The tall man looked ugly, but he also ordered...
"Go quickly!!"
Ming Jin still didn't know where these brawny servants came from, but they still took the time to retreat.
Buzz! Arrows flew in large swaths and hit the ground, only half an arm's length away from their hasty retreat.
The opponent's range increased, but they could no longer keep up with Mingjin's retreat speed, because they hid in the attic behind the small forest at the top of the mountain.
————————
"The suspension bridge connecting the two peaks is broken. If they want to come over, they can only go down halfway up the mountain and then go around again. It will take at least two hours. There is no rush."
Two hours was actually not long, but Ming Jin couldn't just focus on escaping down the mountain, she needed some time.
"You two's injuries need to be treated, and there can be no delay." Ming Jin made his decision before the guard spoke to Xu Qiubai.
There was no room for the two of them to say much.
The guard was seriously injured, with stab wounds, internal wounds, and arrow wounds. He was covered in blood, but he was just holding on. Compared to him, Xu Qiubai may be much better, but he was also shot deeply by the arrow. Because he was a scholar, he was far less physically strong than the guard.
His face turned pale and his lips lost all color.
"Bring the medicine powder." After a few strong men helped bring the two injured people in, Ming Jin asked the guards for something.
She knew that the family's secret guards were very powerful, and that was because the Xie family spared no effort in training them. Each one was fully equipped and each carried healing medicine.
"Girl, I will apply the medicine myself."
The guard was trembling and struggled to lift his arms, trying to take out the medicinal powder from the hidden button in his clothes.
"Bring it here." Ming Jin's voice became calmer.
"Girl, the rules are strict. If the master knows about it, his subordinates will die without redemption..."
Ming Jin was speechless for a moment, but fortunately someone in the room spoke to calm down, "Miss Xie, let my maid treat the wounds of these two injured people. Someone, hurry up and bring the medicine box."
The other party's voice was soft. Ming Jin looked at the other party. After recognizing the other party, his eyes were filled with color and he nodded slightly, "Thank you, Mrs. Li."
"polite."
The young lady of the Li family, Zhang Qingrui, ignored the small talk and not only ordered the maids, but also arranged for some of the Li family's guards who had just appeared to keep an eye on the situation outside.
"Can not Go Out."
As soon as Ming Jin said this, the closed doors and windows were pierced by arrows, scaring away many people.
Fortunately, because the distance is too far and the strength is reduced, they can only be hung on the door and window holes. If they come in, they will only be shot down a foot at most.
Everyone was much safer hiding in the inner room, but the scene outside was quite scary. The old lady of the Li family was still frightened, and she couldn't help but mutter: "How can you shoot from such a distance..."
"It's a military bow. I'm afraid these people have extraordinary origins."
Ming Jin had already made a judgment when he saw the archers before, and now he is even more confident based on the range of the bows and arrows under the opponent's best efforts.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Li family were surprised, Army Bow?!
