Battle cries spread and arrows were shot into the woods. The Lulin people's attack to save the Seven Buddhas was originally intended to catch them off guard. After they failed, they quickly dispersed. Then they gathered at a predetermined place in the nearby forest.
Perhaps in order to avoid falling into the trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain, the officials only gave chase for a short while before retreating again. Reorganizing the team and treating the wounded.
Although the people of the Greenwood Forest were full of tricks, the government was not in charge of the army this time, but the Ministry of Penalty. Many experienced arresters from nearby states and counties were involved. They played an appropriate role in dealing with the people of the Greenwood Forest instead of the army.
At this time, stretchers carried the wounded and dead people of the Greenwood Forest. A group of people were counting their identities. In the faint smell of blood, a tall middle-aged man came to the prison cart. During the battle just now, the team stopped by the roadside and surrounded the prison cart and the prisoners in the middle. At this time, the middle-aged man said, "We can go now. Rest at the station in front." The team began to move forward again.
The middle-aged man wore an official uniform. Although he looked tall, his cheeks were thin. However, this thinness did not give people a feeling of powerlessness. It was just that his cheekbones were prominent and his eyes were full of spirit. When he slightly pursed his lips, he looked tough and smart. His hair was not long. Although it was tidied, it still looked a little messy. He held a long sword with a wide blade in his hand and walked beside the prison cart with the smell of blood lingering on his body. Occasionally, he would look at the man trapped in the prison cart with shackles and iron hooks in his shoulders.
"Is he all right?" He asked the guard beside him who was staring at the prison cart.
"Chief, the traitor has been looking at the sky."
"Oh." The chief nodded, "According to the rumors in Jianghu, Fang Qifo is omnipotent. It's not a big deal for you to know astrology. I'm very curious. After watching for a few days, did you see anything?"
His words were naturally directed at Fang Qisfo. The prisoner's carriage creaked as it moved forward. After a long while, Fang Qisfo blinked his eyes, "Constable Tie, you flatter me. I haven't read many books, how would I know how to read astrology? I just want to see … where people will go in the future. "
"It sounds like you've accepted your fate." Chief Tie looked cold and walked side by side with the prison cart, "Since you've accepted your fate, why don't you commit suicide? You caused so many people to die because of you? Although you can't use your hands and feet, and you don't have any power, it shouldn't be a problem for you to bite your tongue when you have time. "
There was not much cadence in his speech and no emotion could be heard from his words. Fang Qifo's expression was also calm and tranquil, "The traitor Fang Qifo did not get what he wanted and became a mute. Constable Tie, are you trying to spread this news to everyone? If I'm not mistaken, the two constables beside him are doctors, right? If you really want my tongue, why don't you do it yourself? "
"Buddha Marshal, you have sharp eyes." Constable Tie cupped his hands in obeisance. "Before we reach the capital, we really don't want you to die. Of course, I really want you to be rescued by them. That way, it will be much easier for us to surround our friends from the Three Mountains Five Peaks. It's just that they're too disappointing. I don't think they have any chance of succeeding. "
"I think so too …" Fang Qi Fo nodded. "It's just that although I don't know how to read astrology, my ears are still useful. Although you guys fought well in the north, many people were injured in the south … Who's coming? Can I tell you their names? "
Constable Tie frowned and remained silent for a while, "Yes, there are masters, but they also failed. Now it's just a matter of whether they can keep them here. When Brother Zong comes back, you'll know. "
Fang Qi Fo sighed and looked up at the sky. The procession moved forward. After a while, someone came to report the situation, and then another group of people caught up from behind. The leader was also wearing the costume of a chief constable. He rode a big horse and carried two steel whip maces on his back. This man was tall and burly, extremely strong. He turned over from the horse and came over to salute Constable Tie. Then the two whispered for a while, "They came … hurt people, but they still ran away."
Although they lowered their tone, Fang Qi Fo in the prison cart next to them could still hear the names in their words. His eyes narrowed, and after a moment, he lowered his eyelids and closed his eyes. Constable Tie turned his head and looked at him, "After Hangzhou, I haven't heard of their whereabouts. In the end, they still came. A little girl is really loyal …"
*****
When the prison cart and the constables moved forward, the people of the Greenwood Forest were gathering in the forest, bandaging their wounds and estimating the casualties this time. In a place on the mountain ridge, Fang Baihua was discussing the prisoner rescue with a few people around him. He heard a noise from the place where the heroes were gathered. Someone was probably going to leave.
"The security is tight. Sure enough, I was right. The recent news was deliberately released by them. There is pressure in the capital city. The prison cart moves at night and is not well-prepared. It is very easy to succeed. They deliberately led us to attack. "
"There are seven chief constables in the Ministry of Justice. Of course, some of them rely on their family background, but Tie Tianying and Zong Feixiao are not simple. We should have expected it."
"What can they do? Are you saying this to the people outside? Now that they have encountered a setback, they should know the pros and cons. "
"However, in the end, it is inevitable that a group of people will take advantage of the situation and kill their way in, making a big scene …"
After the defeat of Qing Xi, the remaining people of Euphoria scattered like birds and beasts. Although Fang Baihua and Fang Qifo attracted a lot of firepower, in fact, there were not many people around them. Coupled with Peng Zehu's great defeat, the people around Fang Baihua at this time were scattered, and some were deliberately dismissed. They no longer had enough strength to rescue people.
This time, the people wanted to rescue Fang Qifo mainly because of the Tiannan region. Fang Qifo was quite popular. There were also people who wanted to take advantage of the situation to stand up for the government. In short, although the people gathered, there was no unified command.
During this time, there was news that the capital city needed to quickly escort Fang Qifo to the north. A group of soldiers and patrolmen rushed through the night and the defense was insufficient. Fang Baihua and the others knew there was a problem when they heard this. But in the Jianghu, people would listen to all kinds of news. At this time, the deterrent force belonging to the Euphoria Dynasty was already gone. If everyone believed in it but did not move, the motley crew that had just been organized might immediately collapse. Because of this reason, everyone organized such an attack so that people could quickly retreat after understanding the situation. Although some people still wanted to retreat because of the casualties, it was better than waiting for everyone to collapse.
In fact, no matter what, for Fang Baihua and the others at this time, it was already impossible to rescue Fang Qifo. However, the Euphoria Dynasty was destroyed, the army was scattered, and her friends, brothers, and husband were dead. Apart from rescuing the only remaining brother, Fang Baihua had nothing else to do.
While they were talking, a female soldier who followed her came over and whispered in her ear, "General Chen seems to say that he is going to leave. He asked me to tell him …"
"Chen Fan?" Fang Baihua frowned. She knew that Chen Fan would never give up Fang Qifo, but she was still curious. She was about to go to find Chen Fan when she heard the female soldier say, "Those people who killed their way in from the south, it seems that … they are here now."
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a commotion from the other end of the forest. Voices were heard.
"Domineering Blade …"
"Liu Dabiao? They … "
"It's true …"
"How dare you come? I didn't see you at Qing Xi …"
"Where are the people of the Domineering Blade? Just a few of you? "
Those who said the last two sentences were naturally the leaders of the Euphoria Army. Some of them were originally dissatisfied with the Domineering Blade Camp. Among the voices, a slightly hoarse voice was heard.
"We are the ones who came … Do you have any objections?"
"Objections? Let me tell you, I do … "
"Now it is no longer the Euphoria Dynasty. Do you think you are still the princess who everyone protects …"
"Don't say these things …"
"Let's all take a step back, don't be like this …"
"You want to fight? Now that all the heroes of the world are here, you …"
The chaotic words became louder, and Fang Baihua quickened her pace. But then there was the clanging of the blade, the clanging of metal, and the clanging of metal. Obviously, the straightforward girl had already wielded the Domineering Blade, pushing and crushing all the way. Then there was the sound of people being thrown out. Fang Baihua rushed out. It was a mess over there. Du Sha, Fang Shuchang, and the others had also rushed out to calm the other martial artists.
"I'm sorry."
"It's okay, it's okay. It's our family's business …"
Under the starlight, the girl waved her giant blade and pointed it at the ground in front of her. In front of her was the leader of the Euphoria Army, who had been sent flying.
"The Domineering Blade Camp does things with a clear conscience. We don't need to explain ourselves to you."
The girl stood there with a proud look in her eyes. Fang Baihua rushed over and pulled the leader up.
"My brother and sister-in-law are like parents to her. You all know that, yet you still say such things! Everyone, please calm down! This is a family matter! Qianqian, you … Hey, come with me … "
In the darkness, Fang Baihua had a complicated look in her eyes. As she spoke, Liu Watermelon sheathed her blade. At this moment, Chen Fan, who was carrying a bag on his back, appeared. Fang Baihua remembered that he was going to leave, so she waved at him. "Wait, Chen Fan, come with me." Chen Fan nodded.
The three of them walked forward. When they reached the edge of the forest, Fang Baihua stopped, took a deep breath, and turned around. The girl with the long box on her back was kneeling on the ground in silence. Fang Baihua was stunned, and she quickly went to help her up. However, the girl was determined, and she kowtowed.
"Auntie, I'm sorry."
"Uh … You …"
Fang Baihua knew that the girl kowtowed not only to herself, but also to the dead Fang La, Shao Xianying, and Fang Qisfo, who was captured in Shangjing.
"Alas … You, you'd better get up …"
After a while, she helped the girl stand up. There were tears in the girl's eyes. She waved her hand to wipe them away, but her eyes were still calm and determined.
"I … Auntie won't hide it from you. After Hangzhou fell, you left. Auntie had a grudge against you, but that's only for me. I know why you're doing this. My cousins also know why you're doing this. Furthermore, they won't hold any grudges against you … In the end, they even said that they felt sorry for dragging you, a woman, into this … "
Fang Baihua had been in Jianghu for many years. At this time, although she was no longer a female general, and her Jianghu clothes were a little shabby, she still looked valiant. However, when talking about Fang La, she couldn't help but feel a little sad. Then she smiled and waved her hand. She turned to look at Chen Fan. "By the way, Chen Fan, they said that you were going to leave. Where are you going? "
Chen Fan opened his mouth and looked at Liu Watermelon. "… Tie Tianying and Zong Feixiao are already prepared, and they are experienced Jianghu people. We can't save Master like this. I want to go to the capital. "
"The capital?" Fang Baihua furrowed her brows. "Why are you going to the capital? To complain to the Imperial Court! The security there is tight. Don't say that you can't save your Master, you will lose your life! "
"I'll go find someone to help."
"Who?"
"I can't say."
Chen Fan replied, but his eyes were on Liu Watermelon. Fang Baihua was startled for a moment, and then nodded. "Fine, I know you have your own ideas. You do what you want. Actually … If your Master is here, he might not want you to get involved in this. "
Chen Fan nodded, picked up his bag, and turned to leave. Then he turned back and asked, "Liu Watermelon, are you going?"
The girl's eyes shook, and she was a little lost. "I, I don't want to go …"
"I know." This answer was not out of Chen Fan's expectation. He nodded and turned back. The girl said, "The matter is settled, you will only cause trouble for him if you go."
Chen Fan turned his back to her. "I know you don't want to cause trouble for him, but no matter what happened, he owes me his life. I can't do this, but maybe he can. I want him to return the favor … Actually, it will be easier if you go. "
"I'm not going." Liu Watermelon shook her head.
Chen Fan smiled, shook his head, and turned to leave. "Fine, I'll go see how Sister Qian 'er and the others are …"
Fang Baihua finally realized who they were talking about. She looked at the girl. "You are talking about him … What is he doing in the capital? Can he help? "
The girl lowered her head, frowned, and shook her head. "I, I can't say …"
"Uh … Okay …" Under the starlight, the wind blew. Fang Baihua sighed softly. She had no impression of Watermelon's husband. After Hangzhou City fell, Ning Yi made a plan for the Tyrant's Blade Camp to retreat to the Southern Border, and then went to the capital. Chen Fan only told Fang Qfo about these things after he returned to Qingxi. Fang Baihua actually didn't know about it. Therefore, she didn't think that finding one person could solve the problem of rescuing Fang Qfo. In her opinion, Chen Fan might also be desperate, but at this time, since there was not much hope, the result might not be important …
At the same time, in the capital, Ning Yi, who had been cruelly abandoned by his wife and concubine, was immersed in his business plan without any distractions. He was preparing for the upcoming publicity of the Bamboo Shop.
