Yan Ruyu's consciousness had just exited the space, and in order to perceive better, her five senses were magnified.

There was no time to take it back.

I heard a very light sound outside, and something was passing by in the wind very quickly.

Yan Ruyu immediately thought of what happened that night at the governor's mansion.

At the same time, Huo Changhe also heard it, and the two of them walked out quickly in tacit understanding.

When he got outside, he saw that Li Jingyao had already caught up with him, and Wen Zhiyan was about to follow closely behind him.

Yan Ruyu took a deep breath. There was a faint smell in the cold air of the winter night.

It's very similar to the one on the broken armor.

Yan Ruyu whispered to stop Wen Zhiyan, and Huo Changhe quickly went after him with Li Jingyao.

Wen Zhiyan was puzzled: "What does the princess mean?"

Yan Ruyu hesitated for a moment and said, "General Wen, although I have never seen this man, he is agile and has a very strong attack power."

Wen Zhiyan was stunned, then understood.

The hand holding the hilt tightened silently, and after a moment, he asked in a low voice: "Princess, even if my legs recover, will they never be the same as before?"

Yan Ruyu said: "General Wen, don't worry too much. It will be no problem to mount a horse and kill the enemy as before."

"It's just that you have only recovered recently and you have been traveling a lot before. This person is very strong and we only know a little about his condition, so safety is the top priority."

When Wen Zhiyan heard her words, his tense heart relaxed.

He could tell that Yan Ruyu was telling the truth, without hiding anything.

She stopped him based on his situation rather than pitying him, nor did she use a roundabout way to tell him that his legs could never be restored to their original state.

Yan Ruyu looked at him with a frank look in her eyes: "General Wen, follow the doctor's advice and don't be stubborn. It won't be difficult to fully recover."

Wen Zhiyan bowed: "Thank you."

He knew very well how badly he was injured at the beginning. He once thought that he would become a disabled person. Now, this was a luxury that he could not even dream of back then. What else could he be satisfied with?

Just as he lowered his eyes to think, suddenly an evil wind blew from behind!

Wen Zhiyan did not look back. His mind was extremely calm and his hands were faster than his brain. He pushed Yan Ruyu away with one hand, drew his sword from its sheath with his other hand, and stabbed with the sword!

With a clang sound.

The sword struck, but did not penetrate.

Wen Zhiyan was startled and had a bad feeling.

He rolled forward and a huge force passed through his shoulders, causing him to feel pain and cold.

He immediately realized that he had been hit, but he did not stop moving. He kicked his foot, turned over, and stabbed out with the sword at the same time.

He drew his sword, and his attacker stretched out his hand.

The hands are claw-shaped, and the pointed nails are like sharp steel claws. They can easily break the skin and severe the tendons and bones as long as they grab.

The sword collided with the hand, sparks flew, and an unpleasant and harsh sound was made.

The sword had no effect on the opponent, but the hand continued to attack, heading straight for his throat!

Wen Zhiyan’s heart was shocked: It’s over!

His sword was useless, but he was unable to block his opponent's attacks.

He gritted his teeth. Even so, he couldn't just wait to die. He wanted to delay for a moment longer, at least so that Yan Ruyu could escape quickly.

Thinking of this, he changed his tactics again, and fought back even though he knew it was useless.

The sword stabbed the opponent's chest again, but it was still useless.

The opponent's hand was only one finger away from his throat!

Wen Zhiyan was not afraid. At this point, death was nothing to be afraid of. His father, mother, and sister were all dead, as were his subordinates and brothers who had lived and died with him.

He has lived so long.

"Click!" A sound interrupted his chaotic thoughts.

"Come and help!" Yan Ruyu shouted.

Wen Zhiyan came back to his senses and saw that the hand that was about to pierce his throat was firmly grasped by a steel flying claw, and the other end of the chain was held in the hand of Yan Ruyu.

Wen Zhiyan quickly dodged to the side of his opponent and grabbed the chain.

It was only then that Wen Zhiyan had time to see clearly what this guy looked like.

As soon as I saw it, my eyes felt like they were stung and tears quickly filled them.

This person... maybe he can no longer be called a human being, his situation is too similar to my father's.

Tattered clothes, disheveled hair, and strange sounds coming out of his throat.

It has become a beast that has lost its sanity and only knows how to kill.

Yan Ruyu was also in shock, she never expected that there would be another "person" like this.

Her hands were extremely sore, and if Wen Zhiyan hadn't helped her, she would have collapsed long ago.

At this moment, two gusts of wind came rushing over.

Li Jingyao and Huo Changhe are back!

The two men stood on the left and right, ready to attack. Wen Zhiyan said quickly and loudly: "Swords are useless! Use ropes."

Where to find the rope now?

Li Jingyao was still thinking about whether he should go to the yard to look for him when a material rope hit him on the head.

"use this!"

Li Jingyao and Huo Changhe each caught one, one on the left and one on the right, trying to tie up the man.

This man is not as big and strong as General Wen. He is relatively thin and easier to deal with.

Yan Ruyu looked at Wen Zhiyan's back. Although he reacted in time and ran away quickly, he was still hit on the shoulder. The hit tore his clothes and exposed his skin.

The wound was bleeding and had turned a light dark purple.

poisonous!

Yan Ruyu warned: "Be careful, don't let him touch you, it's poisonous!"

Huo Changhe and Li Jingyao were also more cautious.

Fortunately, the four of them were very skilled, and they were able to subdue him even with four against one.

Just at this moment, footsteps and shouting were heard in the distance.

"who?"

"Why are you making so much noise here in the middle of the night?"

It is the patrol team of the governor's mansion.

The leader of the team was a young man in official uniform with a drawn sword. He looked somewhat similar to Cui Chong.

Huo Changhe recognized him; he was Cui Chong's cousin, Cui Liang.

Cui Liang led his men over here and raised his hand to let the people behind him prepare bows and arrows and be ready to shoot at any time.

Huo Changhe raised his voice and said, "Cui Liang, it's the king!"

Cui Liang was startled and quickly sped up. When he got closer, he saw that it was indeed Huo Changhe. He hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, this is..."

He turned his head and looked at the beast-like man, his tone changed: "What is this?"

Huo Changhe didn't have time to explain, and said quickly: "Take the people away from here, don't get close, guard the intersections on both sides, and block the news strictly!"

Cui Liang came back to his senses from his shock and nodded quickly: "Yes, yes."

He turned around and ran away again, dividing the men into two teams. As Huo Changhe said, the two teams guarded the two intersections respectively.

Fortunately it was night and there were not many people around.

Huo Changhe and Li Jingyao worked together to tie up the strange man, but he still refused to surrender and struggled hard. If it weren't for the special rope given by Yan Ruyu, he would have broken long ago.

After tying him up and kicking him to the ground, Huo Changhe rushed to Yan Ruyu's side first.

"How's it going? You're not hurt, are you?"

Yan Ruyu shook her head. Huo Changhe faced her with his back to the weirdo, completely blocking her view.

Yan Ruyu was a little confused at first, but then she suddenly understood why Huo Changhe did this.
