Under the cover of the powerful crossbow, Zheng Yixiang and the two general flags and five small flags were successfully approaching the person who issued the orders before. Most of the enemies lying in front of them were solved by the powerful crossbow. As for the remaining one or two enemies who escaped the crossbow arrows, they had no power to resist when facing Zheng Yixiang and others who were like hungry tigers and pounced on the sheep.

Although yamen like Jinyiwei and Dongchang are always used to using force crossbows to solve problems when facing people in the martial arts world, this does not mean that their martial arts are really shattered.

On the contrary, with the so-called martial arts secrets that they can obtain with such a huge figure as the imperial court, are probably drooling in the envy of those famous sects that have been passed down for hundreds of years.

So, soon, Zheng Yixiang, with the cooperation of the other seven subordinates, caught the person who had spoken out and given orders.

However, after pulling the other person over and roughly scanning the other person's appearance, Zheng Yixiang's originally excited expression instantly turned dark.

Although he had never seen Mu Yixing with his own eyes, he had seen portraits depicted by Chao Wangtian and painted by the painter.

Although the painter's painting skills are not vivid, he still paints the characteristics of Mu Yixing's appearance, which is also the common feature of various arrested portraits.

However, the face in front of him looked no similar to that portrait. The only thing that resembled Mu Yixing was body shape, which was also one of the main reasons for his misjudgment.

"Damn it!"

What made him even more angry was that the moment he saw the other person's appearance, the other person's face was not only without any fear, but on the contrary, his face showed a little joy and a satisfied smile.

"Where is Mu Yixing?"

Zheng Yixiang, who was carrying the other person's neck, was like an angry lion at this moment, as if she was about to tear the other person into pieces. Even though the sound of a little sharp in the past became full of boundless momentum at this moment.

“Ha~”

But in response to Zheng Yixiang, he only sarcastically chuckled. With this life-long chuckling, the mouth and nose of this person who pretended to be Mu Yixing began to flow out slightly dark brown blood.

Taking poison to commit suicide.

As a householder of the Jinyiwei, Zheng Yixiang naturally understood why the madman who dared to ridicule him had such a reaction.

This also made Zheng Yixiang, who was already in anger because he was fooled by the other party, burned even more intensely.

What's worse is that he can't vent these anger at this time.

At this time, what he needed to do the most was obviously to find Mu Yixing's whereabouts as soon as possible and catch the other party, otherwise the hard work tonight would be completely useless.

The two general flags and five small flags that followed Zheng Yixiang, looking at this scene and the expression on Zheng Yixiang's face, naturally knew it immediately. Without Zheng Yixiang's instructions, they immediately rushed around in a tacit understanding.

The sword and shield soldiers who were guarding the crossbowmen before immediately stood up and walked forward slowly, cooperating with their Shangguan to investigate the crowd one by one, trying to find Mu Yixing's whereabouts as soon as possible.

Time passed by minute by minute, and neither Zheng Yixiang nor his general flag, small flag, sword and shield hands still found nothing, which made Zheng Yixiang feel more and more anxious.

Although it was about to dawn and it seemed to be very beneficial to them, Zheng Yixiang could not guarantee that Mu Yixing would really not be able to escape from the siege before dawn. Of course, he was even more worried that Mu Yixing had been unfortunately shot by that round of crossbow arrows just now. If he could not find and treat it in time, he would be afraid that even the body would be completely cold after dawn.

After all, his men were limited and he could not surround the place and could not fly out even a mosquito.

So, he became more and more anxious, and finally didn't care too much and began to urge the sword and shield hands who had been slowly advancing to disperse directly and look for Mu Yixing's whereabouts.

But immediately, the cruel facts proved.

His anxiety prompted him to make a wrong judgment, and it was a big mistake.

...

"Do it!"

Just when the sword and shield soldiers were dispersed because of Zheng Yixiang's urging and had already left the crossbowman too far, a sound didn't sound big, but it was enough to make Zheng Yixiang cry like a low cry from falling into an ice cave. The "corpses" that had fallen on the ground all the time suddenly came alive, avoiding the sword and shield soldiers, and headed towards the most threatening crossbowman.

When the low shout sounded, Zheng Yixiang, who had realized something was wrong, immediately started roaring loudly.

"Kill the enemy freely."

In this case, all he could do was hope that his crossbowmen would be as calm as possible and shoot the crossbow arrows as much as possible into the bodies of enemies who were rushing towards them, reducing losses.

As the elite selected by Zheng Yixiang from Yingtian's many Jinyiwei, the crossbowmen have indeed achieved their ultimate goal.

Even though they knew that without the cover of the sword and shield hands in front of them, the enemies who were roaring and rushing towards them would probably kill them on the spot, and their subordinates were still not panic at all. They calmly chose the target that poses that threatened them the most and pressed the crossbow.

However, after all, crossbows are different from bows that can be opened and closed quickly. After shooting crossbow arrows, they obviously cannot get the chance to wind the string again.

The long-term training played its due role at this time. They knew that they would never be able to shoot with the crossbow in their hands again. After shooting out the last crossbow arrow, they immediately destroyed the crossbow, which was destroyed and could not be used before repair, and pulled out the embroidered sword from their waists to meet the enemy who still survived under their waves of crossbow arrows.

They are indeed very brave, but their disadvantages as elites are undoubtedly revealed at this time.

They have been divided into different types of troops and have been practicing the same weapon for a long time. After leaving the weapon they are best at, their threat level has dropped significantly. Nearly twenty crossbowmen faced enemies whose number is only more than half of them, and they decided to win and lose the winner as soon as they contacted them.

Nearly twenty crossbowmen, more than one-third of them were unable to pick up crossbows after today.

Zheng Yixiang, who was running towards this side desperately, looked at this scene, his eyes bursting.

Although these crossbowmen are just lieutenants and have a low status, they have always been the most capable subordinates he relies on. It will take a year or even longer to make up for the losses in just this moment.

Not to mention, this was only a moment, and the killings over there continued. If he did not stop the loss in time, I was afraid that everyone would lose it here.

Without these crossbowmen who threatened Mu Yixing and his men the most, he might really fail this time, be forced to flee, or even die on the spot. Of course, the batch of treasures worth more than 100,000 taels would be taken back by Mu Yixing.

How can this prevent him from being both heartbroken, angry and anxious?

...

Seeing that his subordinates had rushed to the most threatening crossbowmen and had already gained an absolute advantage, it seemed that they could slaughter them immediately, Mu Yixing, who had just ordered the action, was undoubtedly very proud at this moment.

The moment he found something was wrong, he was able to react in time and thought of a follow-up plan, and eventually transformed his absolute disadvantage into his current even-matched and even gained a little upper hand. He was naturally very content.

However, he also knew in his heart that it was far from time to celebrate. Zheng Yixiang, who was the fastest, was about to rush back to the crossbowmen to rescue. The other Jinyiwei, especially those who seemed to have been trained in the army, were only one step slower than Zheng Yixiang. He must now make others do their best to block Zheng Yixiang and others.

As long as his confidants could get rid of the dozen crossbowmen, even if he could not regain his treasure as planned today, this sneak attack would not be considered a failure.

“Ha~.”

But just as Mu Yixing was still thinking about the gains and losses of the sneak attack plan, and was about to open an order to block the rescue, a chuckle rang in his ear, making his heart nervous in an instant. Just as he wanted to find the source of laughter, a slight word that made his hair stand up immediately rang in his ears.

"finally found you."

Retreat!

Mu Yixing, who was about to give the order, immediately retreated back like a terrifying geese, and his eyes were even more nervous to search for the source of the sound. As for the idea of ​​ordering to block Zheng Yixiang, he had already been squeezed out of his mind by the fear of death.

It was at this moment that because of his retreat and his forgetful order, his subordinates who had been waiting for his order did not hear the order. When they fell into a stagnation, Zheng Yixiang was able to successfully arrive.

With the support of a first-class expert like Zheng Yixiang, the crossbowmen who originally had no power to resist finally had a chance to breathe.

When the sword and shield soldiers who were already in front of them to cover up all the impacts for them came back, they could not only relieve the crisis, but also counterattack and avenge their dead colleagues.

...

Seeing that the situation of unlimited advantages became confusing and even signs of collapse again, the subordinates who were waiting for Mu Yixing's orders couldn't help but look at Mu Yixing with confusion.

After seeing Mu Yixing's appearance at this time, their doubts became increasingly serious.

Not only did they find that Mu Yixing had retreated suddenly at some point, but at this time they were also vigilant and constantly sweeping around with their eyes, as if they were searching for something, but in their eyes, there was obviously nothing around him.

He was more like fighting wits and courage with the air, and he looked very funny and stupid.

But they obviously didn't dare to feel this in their hearts. On the contrary, they felt that Mu Yixing was definitely in huge trouble or even danger.

Just when they wanted to give up temporarily and go to support those companions who were gradually in huge trouble, who were about to be surrounded by the sword and shield hands of the Jinyiwei, they were about to turn around and rescue Mu Yixing, they suddenly saw a figure appearing not far behind Mu Yixing, slowly approaching him step by step.

The group of people couldn't help but feel anxious, and immediately ignored the possibility of Mu Yixing's identity being exposed, and shouted loudly at Mu Yixing.

However, Zhao Da and Wang Qing, who were mixed among everyone, couldn't help swallowing with difficulty after seeing the figure, and then looked at each other.

They were so familiar with this figure that even though nearly twenty days had passed, they would still dream about this figure from time to time, dreaming of the scene that made their hearts stop beating.

So, while the others were clamoring for Mu Yixing and rushing towards the other side, Zhao Da and Wang Qing took a step back quietly, as if they wanted to go and rescue another group of companions who were in huge trouble.

...

Even without the warning from many subordinates, Mu Yixing already knew where the voice that made him extremely afraid came from.

Like a ray of light on the back.

This is what Mu Yixing felt at this time.

After slowly turning his head and seeing the figure behind him that was walking towards him step by step, he finally knew the other party's identity.

Similarly, he also knew what he would face next.

Ten-step sword.

Although he had learned from Zhao Da and Wang Qing that a young swordsman had killed two of his great martial arts men with ten-step swords, especially one of them was Guo Can, who practiced the hard skills of iron cloth shirts, but now when he finally felt it, he realized how terrible and tormented it was.

At this time, those subordinates who were originally rushing towards Mu Yixing finally felt something was wrong. Many people who had heard Zhao Da and Wang Qing talk about that night had already guessed the other party's identity.

When many people saw Zhao Da and Wang Qing's figures that were contrary to him, they had already developed the same thoughts in their hearts.

They are no longer those newborn calfs who have just entered the world, so they are not afraid of heaven or earth. They have been living in the world for a long time and know a truth deeply.

If a person is killed, he will die.

Death will not take your life away because of your courage to die. On the contrary, the courage of ignorance will only make you die faster.

The most important thing to live long is to know how to bend.

However, although some people have quietly turned around and chose to "follow" Zhao Da and Wang Qing's footsteps, most people still choose to push forward.

Of course, they are not fearless, nor do they not know the principles of how to better save their lives. But as Mu Yixing's confidant or even direct guard, if Mu Yixing dies, their fate will not be much better than death.

So, since they are all dead, why not choose to be braver? Besides, is the so-called ten-step sword really that terrible?

Seeing that they were about to arrive by Mu Yixing's side, they couldn't help but feel suspicious.

But just as they were about to arrive by Mu Yixing's side, Bai Shier, who had been moving forward slowly before, suddenly blurred in their eyes.
