Li Shuyun slowly turned his head, held his breath, and looked closely.He only glanced at it, and felt that the back of his neck was cold and swishing, and the hairs stood on end.In the direction that Liang Xiao pointed, thirty steps away, a black shadow was hidden in the reeds, slowly squirming.Under the shadow of the moon, the shadows of the black and the shadows of the swaying of the reeds mingled together, and it was extremely difficult to distinguish.Although Li Shuyun's eyes kept wide open and swept the direction several times, he was never able to identify it.If it weren't for Liang Xiao's vigilance, this person would have slipped past Li Shuyun's eyes.Li Shuyun glanced at Liang Xiao in awe.The shooter is really not an idle person, Liang Xiao's eyesight is about the same as him, but his ear power is much stronger than him.Although the wind rustled the reeds, it still did not hide from Liang Xiao's ears.Li Shuyun made a gesture and asked for the next move.Liang Xiao shook his hand and motioned for him not to move, just look at the movement.This shadow may be part of the enemy, or it may be just a spy for information.If it is the former, then you can't act rashly and startle the snake.The two quietly changed their postures, Liang Xiao took off his bow and put on an alarm arrow, Li Shuyun carefully drew his long sword, raised his shield, and kept a close eye on the surroundings in case someone approached to sneak attack.Liang Xiao's archery skills are outstanding, but his melee ability is very average, once he is close, the consequences are unimaginable.They lowered their bodies, hid themselves in the reeds, and then let out two long and one short, subtle pheasant chirps, alerting Li Jiao and the others.After a while, there was also the sound of turtledoves cooing behind the post house, followed by two more, one long and one short.Li Jiao was alerted, and reported the number of enemies he had seen so far: six.Liang Xiao's scalp was a little numb.There are six enemies in the back mountain, and I don't know how many enemies are hiding in the shadows.The situation is urgent, and there can be no delay, so we must immediately return to the post house and wait for help.As soon as the day dawns, the enemy cannot hide their tracks.Liang Xiao listened to the movements around him again and stabbed Li Shuyun."
Withdraw" Li Shuyun nodded without thinking."
Okay, you withdraw first, and I will be behind."
Liang Xiao was not polite, he suddenly got up, pulled his bow and arrows, let go of the strings, and shot the arrows.The "squeak" arrow broke through the wind, pulled out a sharp alarm, broke the silence of the lake, and flew thirty paces in an instant, right in the middle of the black shadow.Since Liang Xiao sounded the sound of the wild pheasant, the black shadow crouched down, motionless.Thirty steps apart, Liang Xiao couldn't hear his breathing, and if he hadn't known in advance, he wouldn't have been able to spot him at all.Frightened by the loud scream, the shadow leaped to his feet, narrowly dodging the arrows, and fell into the reeds.Before he could stand up, Liang Xiao's second arrow arrived again, hitting him in the back.The shadow grunted in pain and fell to the ground again.He leaned sideways and raised the shield in his hand, protecting his chest and abdomen.His reaction was very timely, as soon as the shield was raised, Liang Xiao's third arrow arrived, and with a muffled sound of "Du", the arrow went deep into the shield.While Liang Xiao shot three arrows in one breath, he stood up from his hiding place and rushed towards the direction of the post house.Li Shuyun took half a step behind, raised his sword with both hands, placed it behind him, and used a riding shield tied to his left arm to protect himself and Liang Xiao, and quickly retreated.In the dark, several arrows flew one after another, either shooting in the air, or being blocked by Li Shuyun's arm shield, or blocked by Li Shuyun's long sword.Liang Xiao did not hesitate to counterattack, shooting several arrows at the black shadow standing in the distance."
AhhThree more shadows rose from the reeds, pushed aside the reeds, and chased after them.Two of them are archers, who are constantly shooting arrows while running.However, sixty or seventy steps apart, and there were reeds to cover them, their arrows did not pose any threat to Liang Xiao and Li Shuyun, but exposed their positions."
Let's go" Liang Xiao shouted loudly, his hand kept waving, the arrows were like beads, and he shot seven arrows in one go.Four arrows missed, two were blocked by shields, and one shot hit the archer who rushed to the front.The archer rolled over and threw himself into the reeds, cursing loudly, and after a while he pursued him again, but his pace was noticeably staggering, and he was no longer swift.Seeing that Liang Xiao's arrow was fast and accurate, the other two were also jealous, and their pace slowed down significantly.Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liang Xiao and Li Shuyun fled back to the front of the post house."
Open the door, open the door," Liang Xiao shouted.Holding a sword, shield and a strong crossbow, the post chief and the thief who guarded the door of the post house heard Liang Xiao's cry and hurriedly opened the door a crack, Liang Xiao rushed in first, and Li Shuyun followed.They rushed into the inn, and the captain immediately closed the door, lowered the bolt, and then stood on the log behind the door, and with a crossbow, shot out of the lookout hole at the top of the gate, blocking the enemy who rushed to the front of the house.Seeing Liang Xiao and the others fleeing back to the post house, the door of the post house was slammed shut, and a few black shadows who had just chased to the door scolded loudly.As soon as he scolded twice, he was stopped by a low shout.A slender figure, surrounded by two strong figures, appeared in the field of vision of Liang Xiao and the others.More than thirty steps apart, the moonlight was dim, and Liang Xiao couldn't see the faces of these people clearly, but he heard the tone of the Chang'an people from the few shouts and scoldings just now."
The ranger of Chang'an."
Without waiting for Liang Xiao to speak, Yan Zhu walked over quickly under the protection of Wei Qing and Qin Ge.Wang Xing also walked out of the room, each holding a sword and a bow, although nervous, he was not flustered.They consciously distanced themselves from Yan Suke so as not to cause misunderstandings."
My lord, why did you come out," Liang Xiao exclaimed."
With you and this high wall, what do I have to fear?"
Yan Zhu shook the long sword he was holding in his hand, murderous."
I want to see who hates me so much, and actually chased me here from Chang'an."
Wang Xing breathed a sigh of relief, and there was a bit of ridicule in his eyes.Liang Xiao was a little surprised, Qin Ge gave him a look, and shook his head quietly.Liang Xiao understood, Qin Ge may have discovered something."
My lord, I don't know who I am, but it's safer for you to go back to your room.We were guarding outside, and they couldn't rush in.When the day dawns, it is not too late to figure out the situation and then make a calculation. ”Yan Zhu ignored him at all, "Oh, oh", climbed up to the gatehouse of the post house, leaned over to look out, and shouted: "Yan Zhu is here, who dares to kill me" When several black shadows in front of the door heard this, they immediately opened their bows and arrows, and shot several arrows in a row, but they were cut off by Wei Qing and Qin Ge with their swords, and they couldn't hurt Yan Zhu at all.Liang Xiao and the post chief seized the opportunity and shot two arrows, injuring one more person.Seeing this scene, the black shadows hesitated, exchanged their heads for a while, and slowly retreated.Liang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.It seems that the opponent's strength is limited, and he has no ability to attack at all, so he can't make a sneak attack, so he has to retreat.Before he could let out this breath, a feathered arrow flew forward, passing through the lookout hole in the door of the inn, and hit the eye socket of the post chief.The captain fell backwards, covered his eyes, let out a terrible scream, rolled back and forth on the ground twice, and then lost his voice.The screams continued, and three more feather arrows flew out of the darkness, one arrow hit the shield in Wei Qing's hand, one arrow hit the throat of a Lang official who was guarding Yan Suke's right side, and one arrow shot at Yan Suke's chest that was exposed.Lang Guanden was out of breath and fell on his back.
