The Female Assistant of Wei Yuyan Shuangfei

Chapter 161 Ambush in the Wilderness

Xie Shuting played with a group of children in the front wing of the government office, paid attention to the children's reactions, and then dragged her tired body back to the back wing.

Lian Xi prepared hot water early. After all, he had been running around for too long today and hadn't had a good wash for three days.

Xie Shuting took off her clothes with difficulty and soaked her whole body in the bathtub, feeling the comfort brought by the hot water. She gently closed her eyes and relaxed her body and mind.

Lian Xi stood silently by the side, handing Xie Shuting a towel. She looked at Xie Shuting's tired face, and couldn't help but feel distressed.

"Miss! Thank you." Lian Xi said softly.

Xie Shuting opened her eyes, gently pulled off the towel on her face, and said with a smile: "I don't want you to remember what happened back then. After all, it wasn't a good thing."

Lian Xi nodded slightly, but tears welled up in her eyes. But she knew that the young lady definitely didn't want to see her cry, so she could only suppress the fluctuations in her heart.

"Miss! You must be very tired from traveling these days. I will wipe it for you."

"Okay!~"

Xie Shuting nodded in response, then changed her position and lay on the bathtub, enjoying Lian Xi's service.

At this moment, she forgot all her tiredness and fell into a deep sleep. She had no memory of how she woke up in bed the next day.

......

"Drive!~"

On the official road in the wilderness, a horse galloped like an arrow, raising clouds of dust.

And on the horse sat a man dressed in white and wearing a gauze hat, looking like a banished immortal, full of mystery.

Suddenly, a breeze swept across the area, and an inexplicable sound of wind was heard above the wilderness, accompanied by the friction of dry grass. The visitor instantly became alert and stopped his horse.

"Hey!~"

The horse's hooves rose into the air, and a corner of the light gauze hat was instantly lifted up by the breeze, revealing the man's handsome face. He was truly Li Shixian who traveled through the night to Qinzhou.

"Such a strong murderous aura." Li Shixian said in a deep voice.

She looked around vigilantly, trying to find the source of the murderous intent. Just when she was distracted, she suddenly heard the sound of a sharp arrow breaking through the air.

“Swoosh!~”

Realizing something was wrong, Li Shixian slapped the saddle and flew into the air. In the moonlight, he saw several figures in the deep forest.

The moment he landed on the ground, without waiting for the other party to react, Li Shixian took out a few copper coins from his arms and withdrew them one by one.

"Bang!~"

The coins shot out silently, and after hearing a few wailing cries, the wilderness fell into silence in an instant. Li Shixian did not dare to be careless, and shot a few more coins before daring to move forward.

When he parted the grass and found several bodies lying under the dead tree, he frowned and asked in surprise, "Who wants to kill me?"

Before Li Shixian finished speaking, he was stunned and took advantage of the situation to put his sword behind his back.

"Bang!~"

There was a startled sound of muffled impact, and as the two weapons clashed, a cold blade was seen hitting Li Shixian's sword.

"You can get close to me silently, it seems you are not bad." Li Shixian said coldly, gathering strength in his palm and making a backhand attack.

The man in black realized something was wrong and wanted to take advantage of the situation to escape, but Li Shixian obviously would not let him do that and casually shot two copper coins at him.

The man in black was still in shock and hurriedly used his knife to resist.

What a pity! Facing the strong internal force suppression of Li Shixian, all actions were in vain.

"Bang!~"

Hearing a crisp sound, the man in black looked at the broken knife in his hand in disbelief and fell straight to the ground.

After only a moment, the black-clothed man's chest began to turn red. His eyes revealed his unwillingness as he stared at the hazy night sky.

"A sneak attack from the dark, and a killer with this kind of stealth skills, it seems that the other party has spent a lot of money."

Thinking of this, Li Shixian did not dare to delay and quickly mounted his horse, continuing to gallop towards Qinzhou, while paying more attention to the movements around him.

However, this group of men in black had no intention of letting her go. After running only a mile, they heard the sound of horse hooves behind them.

Without thinking too much, Li Shixian knew that the killer behind her was catching up. She could only speed up and try to get rid of the situation in the wilderness and fight back.

Obviously the other party had already anticipated Li Shixian's thoughts. Just as she passed through a valley, she saw dozens of men in black jumping out of the dry grass.

At the same time, dozens of chains intertwined in the air, forming a huge iron net, as if intending to keep Li Shixian here.

Li Shixian's eyes flashed, and he spurred his horse to rise again, throwing the bamboo hat on his head into the air. After cutting off the two chains, he was surprised to hear a sword chant, and Qingping was unsheathed.

“Swish!~”

The sword energy shot out, and in an instant it cut off the remaining chains. After just this one fight, the man in black knew the enemy's capabilities very well.

Without waiting for the man in black to react, Li Shixian leaped into the air and took out dozens of copper coins again and shot them out one after another, directly at the man in black.

Immediately afterwards, continuous wailing was heard in the valley. Li Shixian held back this time in order to lure out the person behind the scenes.

After she landed steadily, she raised her sword and swung it, saying in a deep voice: "Your Excellency has sent so many people to test my footing, and now you are not going to show up?"

However, the only response she got was the dead silence in the valley and the rustling of leaves in the wind.

Li Shixian stood quietly, staring into the depths of darkness. At this moment, she did not dare to have any disrespectful thoughts.

Suddenly, a breeze blew by, bringing with it a faint scent.

Li Shixian frowned slightly and thought to himself, "This fragrance... is not good."

Realizing something was wrong, Li Shixian immediately covered his mouth and nose and took a few steps back, but then his legs went weak and he almost fell.

"Despicable. He actually used such a despicable method as Qimen Anxiang." Li Shixian said weakly, and a feeling of powerlessness suddenly surged in his heart.

Suddenly, a gentle breeze blew across the landscape, and the wilderness was filled with a scene of total silence.

A person was hidden in the moonlight. He was wearing Arhat shoes, a purple robe, a nine-ring staff on his shoulder, and jade Buddhist beads in his hand. He was an unknown person who had descended into the wilderness.

"Amitabha! Donor, today the monks will pray for your salvation, saving you from the sufferings of the mortal world and from falling into reincarnation again."

Hearing this, Li Shixian raised his sword and pointed it, laughing coldly: "Old bald donkey! Tell me your name. I won't kill nameless people with the Qingping sword."

"Amitabha! The monk is a precious appearance."

"Bao Xiang?"

Xie Shuting frowned when she heard this, looked the monk up and down, and asked suspiciously, "It seems that all the monks of the 'Bao' generation are dead. Who are you?"

"I'll have to trouble you to go to the underworld and ask Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva about this matter."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bao Xiang changed his previous solemn expression, his eyes became stern, and murderous intent appeared in his eyes.

Before Li Shixian could react, he raised his palm and attacked him forcefully. Under the fierce palm energy, Li Shixian suddenly came to his senses and responded with a palm.

"Bang!~"

The moment the two palms clashed, the remaining energy of the two palms instantly swept across the four realms.

Hearing several loud explosions, Baoxiang took a few steps back amid the rising smoke and dust.

In contrast, Li Shixian looked calm, standing with his hands behind his back, not showing any sign of panic.

In just a moment of fighting, the difference in martial arts between the two was immediately apparent. Baoxiang frowned, feeling something was wrong.
