Someone beside him answered, "That A Big Man is sitting on the horse like a fool. With my archery skills, it shouldn't be hard to hit him. But Venerable is talking to him. If that A Big Man is injured and causes chaos, will it hurt Venerable?"
"Hmm … makes sense."
The other man nodded and pressed down on his bow. He said in a low voice, "Let's not fight here. There's still a long way to go before we reach the Zhan Family Fortress. We won't have to worry about him escaping. Let's wait for the Venerable One to leave first."
On the other side of the forest, there was another group of people peeping at the three groups of people at the crossroads. One of them complained, "Motherf * cker, it's because this crossroads is wider and there are fewer trees to hide. That's why we chose this place to attack. Who knew that three groups of people would arrive at the same time. How are we going to attack?"
Another person said, "Those followers are moving back and forth. It's hard for me to aim at Ye Xiaotian. If I can't kill him in one shot, it'll be even harder to attack when there's chaos."
The first person hesitated and said, "How about … we wait for him to leave this place?"
That person said, "It's all the forest ahead. It'll be hard to attack. Once he leaves the forest, he'll enter our Yu Family Fort's territory. If we let him die there, it'll cause trouble for us. Besides, we've already killed the people from Cool Moon Valley. They're under the trees now. Are we going to drag a few corpses into the forest … "
From their tone, it was obvious that they were sent by Yu Fushun. At the crossroads, Gorgi Gron and Ye Xiaotian didn't know that someone was plotting against him. Gorgi Gron was proud while Ye Xiaotian's face darkened. "Gron, make way!"
Gorgi Gron said proudly, "Make way? I, Gorgi Gron, have never made way for anyone! You guys move to the side, I'll go first! "
Ye Xiaotian had been humiliated by the female general of the Yu Family last time. He really didn't have the thick skin to continue acting like an official. Yang Xianmin suddenly said angrily from the side, "There are two groups of people squeezing in here, there's no space for you to pass through. Get out of the way, don't delay me from going to the Yu Clan to propose marriage. "
Gorgelon's face sank, and he said, "Cousin, what are you saying? It's not like you don't know my temper. Today, I will not give way! "
Yang Xianmin hated Cool Moon Valley because Chieftain Guoji betrayed him by marrying the Zhan family and Yang Xianda one after another. Hearing this, he couldn't help but sneer, "I don't care about the dog-eat-dog things between you two. Get out of the way and wait for me to come over. You guys can do whatever you want, I can't be bothered to care! "
Ye Xiaotian was invited by Yang Xianda. How could Yang Xianda sit back and watch Ye Xiaotian be humiliated? Relying on the fact that his daughter was about to marry Gorgelon's father, and he was two generations older than him, he said politely, "Gron, just make way. There are so many of us, and we really can't make way for you."
Gorgelon's face sank, and he said to Yang Xianda, "Yang Xianda, don't think that just because your daughter is with my father, you can act like a senior in front of me! Don't get involved in the grudge between me and Ye Xiaotian. Go! "
After Gorgelon finished speaking, he urged his horse to crash into them. The two groups of Yang family were annoyed by his arrogance and rudeness, so they crowded together and refused to give way. Gorgelon said angrily, "Get out of the way!" As he said this, he raised his horsewhip and lashed it down fiercely. But he didn't whip the strong man in front of him, but Ye Xiaotian.
How could the imperial bodyguards around Ye Xiaotian allow him to injure the Venerable One? One of them immediately drew out a long saber and thrust it forward. The whip coiled around his saber like a spirit snake, but he forcefully snatched it away and forcibly cut off the whip. Seeing that it was Ye Xiaotian's imperial bodyguard whom he had fought a few days ago, Gorgelon flew into a rage and yelled, "You dare to destroy my whip!"
Gorgelon abandoned the horsewhip and pulled out his knife. He felt that the place was narrow, and the horse couldn't move, so he jumped off the horse and rushed towards Ye Xiaotian with large strides. The guards around Ye Xiaotian dismounted one after another and surrounded Ye Xiaotian in the middle. They also pulled out their shining steel knives.
The two sides didn't even say a word before they started fighting. This time, Gorgelon was not alone. He had many attendants with him, and these attendants couldn't tell which were Ye Xiaotian's guards, which were Yang Xianda's attendants, and which were Yang Xianmin's men. They swarmed up and killed anyone they saw.
How could Yang Xianda and Yang Xianmin's men let them kill them? They immediately pulled out their knives and fought back. The three-way intersection suddenly turned into a battlefield. For a moment, it was difficult to tell who was the enemy and who was the enemy.
In the dense forest, the ten guards sent by Ye Xiaotian panicked. Gorgelon's men and Venerable's men had already started fighting. Could they still sit back and watch the two sides fight and wait for Gorgelon to get back on the road? The archer with the bow gritted his teeth and shouted, "Brothers, let's do it now!"
Gorgelon waved his knife fiercely and knocked away two long knives. Just as he took a step forward, he heard the wind behind his head. A sharp whistle whistled past his shoulder. Gorgelon suddenly turned his head and saw a strong man on Yang Xianmin's side, who was holding a black iron stick, cover his neck and fall down. A sharp arrow had shot through his neck.
Gorgelon was shocked and his hair stood on end. He immediately shouted, "Someone shot an arrow from the dark! Someone shot an arrow from the dark! "
The change at the three-way intersection made the killers sent by Yu Fushun to assassinate Ye Xiaotian dumbfounded. They looked at their leader, who was also at a loss. After hesitating for a moment, he said, "No matter, kill Ye Xiaotian!"
Gorgelon roared and rushed towards Ye Xiaotian. He shouted, "Ye Xiaotian, you are so black-hearted. You actually arranged an assassin to kill me! I'm going to kill you today! "
Gorgelon's body was slightly lowered. He used the crowd to hide from the arrows, but the powerful steel knife in his hand chopped down at Ye Xiaotian's head. The two bodyguards next to Ye Xiaotian worked together to block the knife. Ye Xiaotian had indeed arranged for someone to "assassinate" Gorgelon, but he wanted his subordinates to act according to the situation. He didn't expect them to choose this moment to act.
Ye Xiaotian took a step back with his knife and scolded guiltily, "Don't talk nonsense. Who wants to kill you-" Before he could finish, an arrow flew past the tip of his nose. If he hadn't been forced back by Gorgelon's fierce knife, the arrow would have pierced through him.
Ye Xiaotian was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He cursed inwardly, "Bastards! Didn't they boast that they were the best hunters in the mountains? Such lousy archery. Compared to Yunfei, it's like heaven and earth. I almost lost my life here. "
Just then, another arrow flew over. Coincidentally, a horse was startled by the chaotic battle and neighed. The arrow pierced the horse's head with a sharp whistle, and the horse let out a mournful neigh before collapsing to the ground. Looking at the angle of the arrow, the target was still Ye Xiaotian.
Ye Xiaotian was shocked. Just now, he thought that the arrow was shot by the person he arranged, and that was why he almost got hit. Looking at the arrow again, he finally understood that it was not that his archery skills were not good enough, but that there was indeed someone else who wanted to kill him.
"Who? Who wants to kill me? " Ye Xiaotian immediately crawled on the ground and threw himself on the dead horse. He shouted, "Be careful, everyone! Someone shot an arrow!"
Ye Xiaotian felt very wronged. Apart from Gorgelon, he really couldn't think of anyone who wanted him dead. He was such a kind person. He did good every day, stood aloof from worldly affairs, and even raised many small pets. Who would want to kill such a compassionate person?
He didn't suspect Gorgelon. Gorgelon wouldn't use this kind of method to kill him. He trusted his opponent's character. Seeing Ye Xiaotian in such a difficult situation, Gorgelon's suspicions disappeared. While blocking two random slashes, he shouted, "Who sent the archers? Cousin, was it you?"
Gorgelon was asking about Yang Xianmin. Although the two families had become enemies, he was used to calling Yang Xianmin cousin. As for Yang Xianda, he had never called him brother before. Although Yang Xianda had become his cheap grandfather now, their relationship had always been rather estranged.
But the Yang brothers thought he was calling them and said in unison, "It wasn't me!"
After saying that, the Yang brothers glared at each other and said in unison, "Was it you?"
"Bah!"
As expected of the two brothers, even the sound of "bah" was in unison. Yang Xianda spat fiercely and said, "Why would I kill Gorgelon? It must be you. You must be resentful of the marriage between the Gogi family and me, so you want to kill Gorgelon."
"Bullsh * t!"
Yang Xianmin pointed his knife at Yang Xianda and said angrily, "It must be you. You want to marry your daughter to the Gogi chieftain and then kill Gorgelon. In this way, when your daughter has a son, your grandson can inherit the Gogi family's property, right?"
While the two brothers were arguing, another group of people quietly came from the forest ahead. This group of people was also arranged by Yu Fushun. Yu Fushun sent a total of two groups of people, one to assassinate Ye Xiaotian, and the other to assassinate Yang Xianmin.
The mission of the people who assassinated Ye Xiaotian was to kill Ye Xiaotian, the so-called mediator, to teach Magistrate Zhang a lesson. At the same time, they could use this to provoke greater distrust among the tribes. And the group of people who assassinated Yang Xianmin received the order to "fake the killing!"
At first, Yu Junting didn't know that Yang Yinglong instructed Zhan Boxiong to marry the Gogi family was just a ruse. In order to achieve a balance of power, she took the initiative to agree to marry Yang Xianmin. When Wen Ao brought back the news, Yu Junting could only take remedial measures and assassinate Yang Xianmin to destroy the marriage.
But Yu Junting couldn't really kill Yang Xianmin, because if Yang Xianmin really died, then Yang Xianda would become the only legal owner of the Mountain of Mercury. Without the Yang family's internal conflict, the other tribes wouldn't have a reason to interfere. How could she take advantage of the situation?
Therefore, Yu Fushun sent two groups of people to assassinate Ye Xiaotian and Yang Xianmin. The two groups of people didn't know about each other. Yu Fushun didn't deliberately hide it from his subordinates, but as a chieftain, he gave the order and his subordinates carried it out. That was all. He had no reason to explain everything to his subordinates.
Therefore, the group of assassins didn't act at the same time as the assassins who assassinated Ye Xiaotian. At this time, they had just sneaked in. Seeing the chaotic battle in front of them, they couldn't help but hesitate. They didn't know if they still needed to add another stab in this situation.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Yang Xianmin and Yang Xianda started cursing at each other. He stood there stiffly, like a living target. What was there to be polite about? Let's do it! The leader of the assassins didn't even think about it. He drew his bow and shot an arrow.
Just as Yang Xianmin finished cursing, a cold arrow flew over and hit his shoulder blade. Yang Xianmin cried out in pain as his bodyguards pounced on him and pressed him to the ground. Yang Xianda stood at the side and stared blankly. He saw Yang Xianmin trying his best to poke his head out from the midst of the guards who were throwing themselves at him. He shouted, "How is it? How is it? If they were my subordinates, would they assassinate me? Yang Xianda, it must be you. You are too vicious. You even want to kill your own brother! "
Yang Xianda was seething with anger. He really wanted someone to jump out right now and shoot him in the face to prove his innocence. At this time, the assassins sent by Zhan Boxiong to assassinate Gojigeron had already sneaked over …
