Chapter 104 The Princess

They couldn't stand it when sleeping in the open. The four of them were all martial arts practitioners. This was nothing. Even some simple food made them careless. Xinyi came from a family of officials and unexpectedly could endure it.

After breakfast, the four of them set off on the road. On the way, Taurus said with a resentful look on his face: "Hey! Can you get up so early to practice in the future?"

"Why?" Xinyi was puzzled.

"Didn't you realize that I've lost appetite recently?" Taurus said: "My handsome face has become so haggard."

"This seems to be our negligence." Zhang Kaifeng looked at Taurus' dark circles and said, "But it is said in ancient books that the plan for a year lies in spring, the plan for a day lies in morning, and the scholar reads the chandelier at night, and keeps cold and heat, so the warriors need to keep improving even more."

"You are ruthless!" Taurus said hatefully, as if he was unable to convince. After all, it is undoubtedly harder for him to beat Zhang Kaifeng with his eloquence than climbing to the sky.

The horse was galloping, and four figures rode the horses and sang dust, and they were so cool that the four figures quickly disappeared on the official road.

The city in front of us stands tall in front of us. Although it is far from them, the majestic aura makes people feel that there is a giant beast in front of it, and it is so small in front of it.

The city was built with gray-brown stones, covered with traces of knives, axes and pits. This is the precipitation of time and carved the vicissitudes of history. The city wall is about dozens of feet high, and a moat about several feet wide in front surrounds the Great Yan Dynasty and protects it all day long. The crowd has never been in and out of the way.

"It's so magnificent. Just standing in front of it makes you feel oppressed. Only the city of the Great Yan Dynasty in the Central Plains can have this feeling!" Taurus sighed.

"Yes!" Zhang Kaifeng responded. Even the Tantric Buddhism in Mobei, even the Demon Buddha Sect, today, did not give him such powerful spiritual oppression: "This is the unique dragon in the dynasty city, looking down at the mountains and rivers."

Muran, several black dots rushed out in the city gate that cost dozens of feet. The black dots moved very quickly, and soon, the black dots finally saw clearly. They were cavalry composed of dozens of people.

"Boom!"

The sound of horse hooves is like thunder. It is hard to imagine that they are cavalry composed of dozens of people, because their progress is like a black arrow. The cavalry is fast, but the formation has never been chaotic. The sound of horse hooves is like a hammer in their hearts, making people breathe involuntarily. The dust on the ground is beating uneasy, and even their horses feel the momentum and keep sniffing. The horse hooves are constantly stepping on the ground, and they are very uneasy.

The cold aura full of killing dissipated, making people feel like they were in hell. These soldiers of war were all elites who were pushed out of the corpse, and the momentum alone was enough to make many people afraid.

"How could such elite cavalry appear here? Did they just come back from the front line to report their duties?" Zhang Kaifeng frowned. Such elite cavalry cannot appear in the city capital casually. The Great Yan Dynasty is famous for its harsh military governance. Those who leave the front line without authorization will be killed even if they have high achievements: "Even if they are transferred back from the front line to guard, it should not be their business. Is there something wrong?"

"I don't know!" Taurus was not understanding, but quickly screamed.

"What did you remember!" Zhang Kaifeng asked, "Is it because I had something happened during my retreat?"

"Yes, just during your retreat, all over the country suddenly set up a list of emperors. On the list are looking for a woman. Whether you provide information or bring people with you, you will get a reward." Taurus said: "And these cavalry are appearing everywhere."

"Woman? If the court can come out of the imperial list to find someone, I guess that woman is not simple in the future. I wonder if she has found it." Zhang Kaifeng turned around and asked.

Taurus shook his head and said, "Not found!"

"Why is this? It's obvious that the emperor list should be found soon. Why is this?" Zhang Kaifeng was surprised.

Taurus also said strangely: "The emperor list does not have a portrait of the person to be searched for, but only provides the person's hobbies and personality."

"Uh! In this way, the government must be busy!" Zhang Kaifeng smiled in surprise.

"That's right! Many people from the world have been dispatched to find the woman. It's not exaggerating to bring back countless women, but they've been busy and messed up in the end." The people in the government were in trouble, and they dared not ignore the imperial list sent by the superiors: "In the end, they had to leave it alone. I didn't expect that they hadn't given up yet. Could it be that the woman appeared?"

While they were talking, the cavalry had already blinked and came to a few feet before advancing, and a fierce aura rushed towards him. This fierce aura suddenly scared the horses that Zhang Kaifeng and others sat down. Zhang Kaifeng turned his back and a thick aura blocked the fierce aura.

Provoking and exerting his power, Zhang Kaifeng became angry, but he still suppressed his anger and asked calmly, "Why should the general stop us from moving forward?"

"Take the princess, otherwise you will be killed without mercy." The black-faced general opened his eyes, and his voice resounded like thunder in the ears of Zhang Kaifeng and others.

Except for Zhang Kaifeng, the other people's faces turned pale in an instant. The black-faced general contained a deep internal force in his angrily shouting, and he was actually coming towards them, with the intention of doing it.

"Did the general misunderstand? We are just ordinary tourists. Going to Beijing is just a trip, and the princess comes from nowhere." Taurus explained.

"I have received a tip to correct you to kidnap the princess. If you don't hand over the princess quickly, just kill him." The black-faced general's murderous aura became stronger.

Zhang Kaifeng sat upright and asked: "Who provided the tips that the general said, and whether it was too arbitrary to issue a killing order to us without reason. The army protects the people, not kills innocent people indiscriminately."

"Bastard, who provided the clues that you can't understand." The black-faced general was furious: "The princess was personally granted by the court. Anyone who kidnapped the princess would provoke the court. Killing you would also exercise protection of the people, and the crossbow was lifted."

With a command, the cold crossbow arrows were ready, and in an instant, the killing aura belonging to the battlefield suddenly exploded. The cavalry composed of dozens of people immediately formed a formation, and the cavalry pulled away one by one, retreating for several meters. Two people were in groups, one with a crossbow, and one with a spear in his hand. This was a formation that was about to charge. The crossbow arrows used by the army were no more than the bows and arrows of ordinary people in the Jianghu. This was a weapon of killing and shooting, which could shoot a hundred meters away. The closer it was to the enemy, the more powerful the crossbow arrows were. Even if a martial artist in the Jianghu had a deep internal strength, it was impossible to catch the crossbow arrows at close range. The moment the crossbow arrows were out of the bore, the power was enough to reach twenty stones, enough to break a huge stone. The cavalry beside him launched a charge at the moment the crossbow arrows were shot out. The distance of several meters was enough to allow the best war horses to be sufficiently enhanced. Even if a person with agility was skilled, he would be penetrated by the spear in an instant.

This is also the reason why the court in the Great Yan Dynasty was the master, and even the masters were unwilling to face the imperial army. Unless those with strong enough skills could be able to take over, and the army was not large.

"Princess, is that so?" Zhang Kaifeng suddenly turned his head. He thought of a possibility, but he only knew that she was a family of officials: "Is Xinyi you?"

"How could I be?" Xinyi shook her head and said.

"Then you are hiding the princess, and you will open the formation." The black-faced general drank.

"You retreat and I will deal with them." Zhang Kaifeng said to Taurus.

"No, you can't deal with them alone, I'll help you." Taurus shook his head.

"No, you have to protect them, I can't be distracted." Zhang Kaifeng said.

The three horses retreated and all fell into the eyes of the black-faced general: "You can't leave!"

"You dare!" Zhang Kaifeng held the Han Guangsword tightly in his hand and said coldly: "I will definitely pay the price if I dare to hurt them."

"Dare to threaten soldiers on the battlefield and get the first level of crime, kill!" The black-faced general's eyes flashed with cold light, and he took the lead in starting again.
