Loyal heart travels a long way

Just as Gu Zhiyao and Chu Dancheng ran not far away, voices came from behind them.As the two galloped forward, they rejoiced in their hearts for their caution.

It was going to be dark now, if Mao rushed out of the forest rashly, he would become a pair of eye-catching targets on the deserted grassland.At present, I don't know how many people there are on the other side, and it will not be too few. Although there are many ferocious beasts in the mountains, it is better than being beheaded by the other party.

As the two galloped their horses, their minds were spinning rapidly.If he stayed in the mountains tonight, Babao would definitely look for Zhu Chengdong if he could not wait for the two masters tonight. When Zhu Chengdong came with his own soldiers to look for them, the two of them would have a chance.

That is to say, no matter what tonight, you have to spend the night in the mountains, and you must not use lightness kung fu to jump on the grassland outside.

And the other party came here specifically to assassinate the two, and what the two thought of was also in the other's consideration, so the other party would think of solving the two of them tonight no matter what.

Even if Gu Zhiyao's identity has not been made public, it won't be long in the royal family, not to mention that Gu Zhiyao has been in the capital for seven or eight years. It is not a big deal in the royal family that he is a royal relative. A secret that can be hidden forever.And the people who were sent to assassinate the royal family must be dead soldiers, and they must either complete the task or go back and use their own lives to pay for the punishment.

Thinking of this, the two of them pinched the horse's stomach with their legs to make the horse run faster.

The peony that Gu Zhiyao rode was brought back from the emperor's stable. It was a bloody horse, a thousand-mile horse.And the horse under Chu Dancheng's crotch can only be regarded as better than ordinary horses. If they each ride one horse, it will be a burden, and the two of them will not be separated no matter what. If Chu Dancheng abandons the horse and rides together with Gu Zhiyao match.

Gu Zhiyao glanced at Chu Dancheng quickly, and Chu Dancheng immediately understood what he was thinking, took two steps closer, caught Gu Zhiyao's hand, jumped onto Gu Zhiyao's horse with his strength, and sat on the back of his horse. behind him.

The sound of chasing and killing followed closely all the time, Chu Dancheng patted Peony's horse's ass, told it to run faster, and then whistled at his own horse.

The weight on the horse's back suddenly lightened, and he was a little dazed, when he heard the master's whistle, he obediently ran away to the right.

The two of them didn't care about anything else, they just concentrated on running to the deep mountains to escape for their lives.

The sound of chasing and killing behind him suddenly became quieter. It was expected that they were chasing the horse that ran away alone, but there was still the sound of the horse's hooves chasing the two.

In other words, half of the dead soldiers chasing after him may still be left.

Mudan didn't need to wait for the speed of the horse next to her, she ran a little faster. She was worthy of being a good horse, but she actually drove the assassins behind her farther and farther.

But Chu Dancheng and Gu Zhiyao didn't relax at all.This is just leaving the other behind for the time being. Both of them know that if the other has brains, they will definitely come to catch the turtle in a urn. In other words, the mountain is probably surrounded by the other.

So what if you get rid of some people for a while?Just procrastinating.

The setting sun finally completely sank, and the moon climbed up. The forest was completely dark, and Peony ran with one deep foot and one shallow foot. She couldn't see the road, and her pace was a little slower.

Gu Zhiyao leaned down and scratched Mudan's neck, "Peony, you can't be slow, today you have both our nicknames in your hands, you are a magic horse, run faster."

Peony snorted, as if she could understand human language, she ran faster.

But the dead man behind him would not stop chasing them just because they were running fast, and it was impossible for the two of them to run like crazy in the mountains and forests all night.

"Wait," Chu Dancheng suddenly stretched Gu Zhiyao's waist, "There seems to be a cliff ahead."

Chu Dancheng has always had sharp eyes, Gu Zhiyao didn't dare to let Peony run like this again after hearing what he said, so he pulled the rein slightly to make Peony run slower, and looked forward carefully.

Sure enough, there was a cliff ahead, and the night was so dark, I don't know how deep it was.

With such a moment of hesitation, the sound of chasing and killing behind him got closer, and now it was obviously impossible to go back to find the hiding place, Chu Dancheng patted Gu Zhiyao on the shoulder.

Gu Zhiyao understood what he meant.

Life is more important than anything else, no matter how reluctant you are, you can only abandon the horse at this time, Gu Zhiyao's heart is churning, but he can only grit his teeth and pinch the horse's belly forcefully, and shouted: "Drive! "

When Peony heard the master's command, she didn't hesitate at all, and ran faster. She took a few steps forward and reached the edge of the cliff. go the same.

It's a pity that the horse can't fly after all, and before reaching the middle of the cliff, the horse's body tends to go down. Chu Dancheng and Gu Zhiyao exerted their strength with each step, and with the strength of Peony, they used their lightness skills and swept towards the opposite side.

When the two fell down, they just reached the edge of the cliff opposite. When they turned around and looked again, Peony had already neighed, like a martyr, falling to the bottom of the cliff.

Gu Zhiyao pursed his lips.

Peony was the one he had seen grow so big, from a pony less than half the height of a man, to now taller than himself.

It has a strong temper and won't let ordinary stablekeepers get close to it. It took a long time to get acquainted with the stablekeepers at home.

Gu Zhiyao personally fed it to such an extent, now that Mudan has fallen into the abyss for the two of them, he feels very uncomfortable.

But there is no time for him to think so much, and now saving his life is the best policy.The opponent set up a trap of countless field feather arrows, and they must have bows and arrows in their hands. It is not safe to wander around this cliff all the time, and they must leave here as soon as possible.

Chu Dancheng knew that Xiao Suan Miao'er must be feeling uncomfortable right now, but he also knew that Gu Zhiyao had a sense of proportion, so he didn't rush him, but just waited beside him, looking vigilantly at the other side of the cliff.

The light of the moon can't shine here, and there are so many shadows of trees on the opposite side, it's hard to see if anyone is standing there.

Gu Zhiyao stood up, took Chu Dancheng's hand, and said in a low voice, "Let's go."

Chu Dancheng nodded, the two of them didn't dare to practice lightness kung fu, they got into the woods and continued to run deep.

The two people on the side of the cliff had never been here during the day, and they didn't even know there was a cliff here. It was just that they were chased by the dead just now, and they fled here in a panic.

In fact, it's not too much to choose a road in a hurry, the place I've been to during the day is a dead end, and Gu Zhiyao intentionally didn't go there.

This mountain is not small, the two brothers don't know how many pursuers there are, and whether there will be another way of pursuers coming up from the foot of the mountain, which happened to be where the two of them were.

On the other side of the cliff, the grass is lush and the trees are luxuriant. On this side, the trees are taller, but there are also stone forests. The road is more difficult than the road from here.

"Brother," Gu Zhiyao tugged at Chu Dancheng, "Look over there."

Chu Dancheng followed Gu Zhiyao's fingers and looked over. There was a huge boulder by the edge of the woods. Behind the boulder was a cave that was faintly exposed, which looked unfathomably deep.
