Chapter 588 Catching a turtle in a urn
The two groups fought each other, but because the enemy outnumbered us, Shen Shuyi and his group were clearly at a disadvantage.
At this moment, the howling of wild beasts sounded one after another all around, as if echoing from afar. The roars were endless, and the birds in the forest were frightened and fled.
The rustling sounds of fleeing made the group subconsciously look around. Some small animals seemed to feel threatened and dived into the mountains.
Yan Yishan frowned: "What's going on?"
When Youan turned his head, he was met with a pair of green eyes. For a moment, he was almost frightened to death.
He had led troops for many years and had seen wolves before, but in the dark night, those pairs of eyes glowing green were really creepy!
Most importantly, there are too many...
You An cursed, "Why are there beasts at this time?"
A female assassin in white clothes said anxiously, "It's that strange fragrance just now!"
Yan Yishan turned his head and said, "You mean, this herd of beasts was attracted by Shen Shuyi and the others?"
Meeting Yan Yishan's gaze, Shen Shuyi curled the corners of his slightly pale lips.
"Master Yan, see you later!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Shuyi turned the horse's head and whipped the horse's belly with the whip.
"go!"
A group of people galloped on their horses and followed.
At the same time, the surrounding beasts were getting closer and closer. Yan Yishan and others were about to chase them, but several tigers jumped out one after another and blocked their way.
Yan Yishan took a few steps back, but saw Shen Shuyi and his group passing through the wolf pack. The wolves actually made way for them one after another, as if they were in an empty space.
"Why don't the wolves attack them!" Yan Yishan was angry.
The female assassin in white said in a deep voice: "I think they are wearing something that can repel wild beasts. We in Yuanxia also have such a thing."
Yan Yishan was unwilling to give up and tried to catch up again, but the wolves and tigers jumped towards them and attacked.
The roaring sound continued in the forest, and before Yan Yishan could react, a tiger pounced towards him.
For a moment, Yan Yishan, You An and others were entangled by the beasts and could not escape.
Seeing Shen Shuyi and others leaving into the distance, Yan Yishan couldn't help but feel anxious.
He exchanged a glance with Youan and said, "You hold back the beasts, Youan and I will lead the others to chase them!"
The assassins from Yuanxia and Luoguo cursed out loud. They were going to be fed to wild beasts in the end? They had been lying dormant for many years, but now they were being sent to do such a job that brought them no benefit at all?
How shameless!
Yan Yishan and You An immediately led people to chase after them, but there were many wild beasts around, so some people were delayed and they were still delayed for a lot of time.
Shen Shuyi and the others continued to move forward into the forest until they heard the shouting and screaming behind them becoming farther away, and then they all breathed a sigh of relief.
The bearded man couldn't help but say, "Miss, you are smart! We can inflict heavy casualties on them without sacrificing a single soldier."
Everyone responded, Shen Shuyi dismounted from his horse and looked around at the terrain.
At the same time, he ordered everyone: "Hurry up and treat the wounds, there will be a fierce battle later."
She was able to come up with this idea because she was inspired by the assassination of Emperor Qianwu during the autumn hunt.
Since others can use it, why can't she?
The number of people under her command was already at a disadvantage compared to Lu Xiao, so she could only seek help from outside forces.
However, the people sent by Lu Xiao would not be so useless.
What's more, there are so many of them, so there will always be some of them who can catch up.
Shen Shuyi looked around, went down a steep slope and came to a flat ground. Jiuchou and Qinxin followed behind her.
Shen Shuyi's eyes fell on a tree that was so thick that it took five or six people to hug it. He turned to look at Jiuchou and said, "Cut it off."
Jiuchou responded and used the Kanglong Mace to directly smash into the tree trunk, and then worked together with Qinxin to cut it in half.
'boom! '
With a loud bang, all the birds and animals in the forest were startled and flew away, and dust was splashed all over the ground.
Shen Shuyi's eyes fell on the thick tree trunk, and he looked at Qin Xin: "Lend me your sword."
Qin Xin immediately handed over the sword, and Shen Shuyi picked up the sword and scribbled a line of words on the tree trunk.
Qin Xin was stunned for a moment, while Jiu Chou remained silent.
"Let's go and ambush up there." Shen Shuyi said in a deep voice. After returning to the steep slope, he looked at the people who had rested.
"Count the arrows. Bao Kun, Bao Peng, lead your men to ambush along this path. When the torches are lit, shoot them with arrows!"
"Yes!"
"Erbao, take Qinxin and Jianpo, take half of the men, go back from the western path, and cooperate with Baokun and Baopeng."
Shen Shuyi gave orders while expressing regret.
There are still too few people and not many arrows left, otherwise, it would be enough to keep all of Lu Xiao's men here!
"Jiuchou, take me and two more people as bait, and now you..."
"Miss, no!"
Before Shen Shuyi finished speaking, everyone in the group spoke up.
"It doesn't matter. Just running away won't work. If we don't leave them here, it will be difficult for us to leave here tonight!" Shen Shuyi had made up his mind.
At this moment, several people jumped down from the higher cliff.
"Who is it!" Zhao Baokun immediately became alert.
The group saw a few figures not far away, one of them was lying on the back of another, running quickly towards them.
Zhao Baopeng and others pulled up their longbows and aimed in the direction.
Shen Shuyi was stunned for a moment, until he saw who was coming, and his eyes were slightly wet.
"elder brother?"
What came into view was a burly man carrying Shen Shuhan on his back, with Gu Yunhe and Shen Lingyun following beside him.
"Yunliang, put me down." Shen Shuhan said to the man who was carrying him.
Standing still, Shen Shuhan's eyes fell on Shen Shuyi and his group: "Are you all okay?"
"Brother, how did you get here?" Shen Shuyi asked.
Brother Zhao Baokun was also stunned when he saw Gu Yunhe, and punched him on the shoulder: "You are really good! When did you get together with my cousin!"
Gu Yunhe bared his white teeth and laughed heartily: "How could you forget that Shu Han and I are good friends."
Zhao Baokun then remembered that Shen Shuhan was famous in Beijing, had good strategies and many followers.
Gu Yunhe was one of them, and the one carrying him, Zhao Baokun remembered, was Cheng Yunliang, the son of the famous border guard Cheng Kun...
Cheng Yunliang was accidentally lost in the forest and raised by wolves. He has a perverse personality and a weird temper. He has no idea how Shen Shuhan subdued him and made him obey him all the time.
As for Shen Lingyun standing next to him, he is the illegitimate son of the Shen family. His aunt died early, and he has been low-key and cautious in the Shen Mansion for many years and rarely shows up.
I didn't expect that I would work for Shen Shuhan.
Shen Shuhan smiled and said, "Let's talk about it when we get back. Do you plan to set an ambush here?"
"Yes, the Lu family is extremely evil, and we will not be happy until they are killed!"
Gu Yunhe raised his head and whistled towards the mountains. Suddenly, nearly a hundred men in black stood up in the mountains and turned into black shadows.
There was a cold light flashing everywhere, and it was obvious that there had been an ambush.
Shen Shuyi didn't expect that after so many years, her brother could still understand her. She felt indescribably excited and happy.
"Brother and I have the same idea! I just happen to be short of some help."
Shen Shuhan's pupils were clear and he looked in the direction where the sound of horse hooves was gradually rising: "It just so happens, let's catch the turtle in the jar."
Erbao smiled foolishly and shook his two hammers: "Who is the turtle?"
Zhao Baokun touched his nose, excited and agitated: "Of course it's You An, the foul-mouthed one, and Yan Yishan!"
