"Don't mess up your position." Chen Xi looked at everyone's panic and shouted in a deep voice.

The voice of the morning light brought everyone back to their senses. It only took a while for them to go from being panicked to being orderly and watching their surroundings eagerly.

It's just that in this short period of time, a lot of manpower was lost.

The enemy is also cunning. After seeing the morning light and they cheered up, they hid in the dark and did not appear, and everyone started to fight.

The two sides faced off for about a quarter of an hour. It started to drizzle in the sky. It was difficult to see clearly in the darkness, but now it was even more blurry.

As the rain fell longer and longer, the fire that had just risen showed signs of going out.

Chen Xi frowned, knowing that if this continued, their disadvantage would become more and more obvious.

The other party was obviously well prepared and could come and go freely in the darkness, but if they lost the light of the fire, there would be no chance of winning in this dark rainy night.

"Pack up, bring the torch, we'll leave immediately."

Chen Xi gave the order, and everyone knew the crisis of the current situation. Even if it was not safe to rush now, everyone still obeyed Chen Xi's arrangement.

Almost at the same time, Chen Xi's people had just mounted their horses and were about to leave, and the killer hidden in the darkness immediately moved out.

Just when everyone was about to be wiped out, Chen Xi flicked his whip and the horses' hooves flew, leaving only the words "Let's meet at the finish line."

The killers who originally planned to kill Chen Xi after finishing everyone saw their target running away, immediately abandoned the few people they were about to capture and followed closely.

Everyone knew that Chen Xi was risking his own life to lure away the enemy for them, and when they were about to follow Chen Xi and help Chen Xi, they saw that Chen Xi and the killers were no longer in sight, and they had no idea where to look.

"go back."

Just when everyone didn't know what to do, one person spoke up, "The nearest town here is Jiangnan. We must rush back as soon as possible to tell the prefect and ask them to send troops to look for it together."

"Otherwise, it would be impossible for just the few of us to find the Queen. Even if we do, we won't be able to defeat those people. They will only be a burden to the Queen."

Everyone felt that these words were reasonable and decided to divide their troops into two groups. One group would go back to the south of the Yangtze River to report the news and look for reinforcements, while the other group would continue to move forward. Maybe the princess would escape successfully and they would be able to get the news in time.

As for Chen Xi, who lured the enemy away, the situation was far from as bad as they thought, nor as good as they thought.

Chenxi has the first generation of navigation. Even in this dark night, Chenxi can still find the most suitable route.

But the enemy behind them was pursuing them so hard that the morning light couldn't get rid of them for a while. In addition, the weather was getting worse and worse, and the road was getting harder and harder to walk.

If Chen Xi wasn't so good at riding, something could have happened if he just slipped.

Right now, Chen Xi had only two options to choose from. One was to hold on, and maybe he would be lucky enough to get rid of the pursuers behind him later.

The second is to find another way, find a suitable time, abandon the horse and walk on foot. If the pursuers are attracted by the horse, you can escape by yourself.

Chen Xi was lucky. A corner appeared in front of her eyes. The enemy who was chasing after her was still some distance away from her. Chen Xi made a quick decision. When she turned the corner, she dismounted from her horse and fell into the grass.

The pursuers who were catching up in a hurry did not notice anything wrong with the grass and hurriedly caught up.

Chen Xi took advantage of the fact that no one noticed that she was no longer on the horse, and followed the first generation's guidance and left towards the path.

About three-quarters of an hour later, the rain started to fall heavier and heavier, and I don’t know when it started thundering.

Chen Xi followed the path and saw the bright light of the lights in the distance. Just when she wanted to continue moving forward, the enemy who had been led away suddenly fell from the sky. Without saying a word, he rushed forward and aimed at Chen Xi's fatal place.

Attack.

Chen Xi hurriedly turned sideways to avoid the oncoming blade, but could not avoid the attack coming from behind. In an instant, wounds appeared on his body. When the rain hit him, a small pool of blood soon appeared on the ground.

The enemy pressed forward step by step, with deadly attacks. Chen Xi was unable to withstand the four punches with both hands, and was at a disadvantage. He could only try his best to avoid the fatal attacks and fight for a chance to survive.

The other party seemed to know Chen Xi's plan, so he attacked more fiercely, and deliberately forced Chen Xi towards the cliff he saw when he came over.

Chen Xi knew that the other party had bad intentions, but under the fierce offensive, she had to follow the other party's thoughts and step by step towards the desperate situation arranged by the other party.

"...This is where you are, jump down."

I don’t know how long it took, but Chudai suddenly shouted.

Chen Xi was stunned for a moment. In this moment, he was stabbed in the abdomen by the enemy's sword, and the pain hit him instantly.

Even though he didn't know what was going on below, out of trust in the first generation, Chen Xi jumped off the cliff without hesitation and disappeared into the night in an instant.

Originally a hit, the killer who thought Chen Xi could no longer escape looked at each other.

"Go down and take a look at the situation. The master has an order. You must see the person alive and the corpse after death."

After a long time, a leader said in a hoarse voice. After hearing what she said, the rest of the people did not hesitate and found another way to check the situation.

Chenxi who jumped off the cliff did not fall into pieces as the enemy thought. There was a river at the bottom of the cliff, and Chenxi fell directly into the river after jumping off.

Perhaps because of the recent increase in rain, the river flow was very fast, and the trees floating on the water were washed away before the morning sun could catch them.

Chen Xi was injured to begin with, including a wound on his abdomen. After being washed away by the water, he passed out immediately.

Drowsily drifting down the river, I don't know where I'm drifting.

Fortunately, the first generation was watching over him, so no accidents happened to the morning light, and it drifted smoothly towards the inhabited village.

It was dawn, and people in this secluded village had already gotten up early to do things. Some people wanted to come to the river early to find a good place to wash clothes, and happened to find Chen Xi unconscious by the river.

"ah---"

He instinctively exclaimed, and after noticing that Chen Xi was motionless and his face was pale, he approached cautiously.

Even though he was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help but take a few steps back after seeing the stab wounds all over Chen Xi's body.

"Hey, it's rained so much these days. My vegetable plot has been flooded, but I feel so distressed..."

A familiar voice came from the village not far away.

The stranger, who was still thinking about what to do with Chen Xi, first reacted by pulling Chen Xi up and hiding behind a big tree nearby.

The people who got up early to do the laundry didn't pay attention to the other side, and just walked over carelessly, not knowing that there were two people hiding behind the big tree next to them.

Looking at the person's retreating figure, the person who hid the morning light breathed a sigh of relief, and then froze.

She didn't even know why she wanted to hide the person. He was obviously a stranger she had never seen before. He also had stab wounds on his body. He was obviously a dangerous person. She saved this person because she didn't know the right rules.

Trouble!!!

Looking at the villagers hiding the person, the first generation breathed a sigh of relief, hiding his merit and fame.

That's right, the villagers' one thought was what caused the first generation to do something.

The first generation knew that Chen Xi was in a very dangerous situation. She was separated from her subordinates, injured and unconscious, and there was a group of pursuers looking for her. If her whereabouts were exposed, Chen Xi's situation would be even more dangerous.

If Chen Xi had not been injured and left untreated, someone might have died. The original generation would not have led Chen Xi to this small village to be discovered.

Since people have been saved, we should save people to the end and send Buddha to the West.

The other party sighed helplessly, carried his wooden basin on his back, and walked along the path to avoid the eyes of the villagers.

Even if she had never left the village, she knew that the person with a large number of stab wounds on his body was definitely not a simple person, and there might be someone looking for her later.

Whether it was for herself or the villagers, she had to cover up the existence of this injured person, and she had to wait for others to wake up before making other plans.

Chen Xi was also lucky. The person who rescued her was a hunter in this village. He lived alone and had no other people at home. He rarely interacted with people in the village. It was not difficult to hide him without being discovered.

In addition, since I am a hunter, I will inevitably get my hands dirty when I go hunting in the mountains, so I still have wound medicine at home, which can be used to treat Chenxi's wounds.

After doing these things, Orion closed the door, took his clothes and continued to wash at the river.

Not long after Orion left, he woke up in the morning light. He opened his eyes with a sharp expression. After seeing the surrounding situation, the sharpness in his eyes instantly turned into confusion.

She remembered that she had jumped off a cliff. How could she be in this thatched house? Could it be that she had been rescued?

It turns out that it is true in the novel that if you jump off a cliff and survive, you will be rescued by an expert!!

"Wake up, stop daydreaming." Chudai, who was just happy that Chen Xi finally woke up, was speechless after knowing Chen Xi's inner thoughts.

"It's not good to read too many novels. Let's face the reality. You were just saved by a hunter. There was no peerless expert to save you. Even if there was, it was the protagonist's life. You don't have that life, okay?"

Chudai's words brought Chenxi back to reality, and she said in surprise: "Am I really not dead?"

"Nonsense, how can you still be here if you die?" the first generation replied angrily.

"I don't know what happened to the others." Chen Xi, who knew that she was not dead, finally had the time to pay attention to other things.

"They are fine. Except for the people who were injured at the beginning, everyone else is fine."

"First generation, do you know how those people knew about me abandoning my horse and running away?" Chen Xi has never been able to figure out this matter.
