The river brought hope, but also blocked the mountain road.The two found another detour, Xie Xi thought about it, but couldn't help asking Bai Yiling that question: "Don't you hate me?"

Bai Yiling said: "When I had no relatives, you were the one who sincerely wanted to call me big brother. I will remember this love."

So now that he has no relatives and no reason, and is alone, Bai Yiling will come back to be his brother.

Xie Xi had a sore nose, and said embarrassingly: "These days, the relationship between us is estranged, I thought you didn't want to think about the past..."

Bai Yiling said with a smile: "I'm just curious, I want to see how you will seek death and life, life is nothing to love, you really opened my eyes. There is nothing more important than life in this world, you are quite open-minded?"

Xie Xi was silent for a moment, then laughed and shook his head.Bai Yiling was born in a secret guard. There is probably no one in this world who can work harder than him, but there is no one who understands the importance of life better than him. No one is qualified to compare with him in this regard.

It's not that he is cruel, but Bai Yiling has already experienced the pain that most people have experienced.

Perhaps in Bai Yiling's eyes, his previous appearance of a resentful woman under a cloud of clouds was a bit ridiculous.

Thinking of this, he suddenly remembered Bai Yiling's promise to Qiu Zhen before, and said, "What about Qiu Zhen?"

Bai Yiling said: "I promised to take her back to the capital, and when the time comes, I will tell her and take her out. As for how to deal with it after returning, we don't have to worry about it."

He smiled: "That's your Majesty's business."

"Wait a minute first." Xie Xi suddenly grabbed Bai Yiling and motioned him to look down.

Bai Yiling stopped talking and looked down, the smile on his face narrowed.

On the mountain road below them, I saw a group of men and horses in black, covered by the shadows of the trees, moving forward silently and quickly.In such broad daylight, the horse's hooves are still wrapped in cloth, and when they step on the ground, there will be no "da da" sound.

Xie Xi whispered: "These are not people from our army. You can see that there are many sacks hanging on the sides of their horses. What are they trying to do?"

Bai Yiling looked at these people, his facial expressions could not be seen clearly from this distance, but everyone was sitting upright on the horseback, their movements were uniform and silent, as if they were driven by some mysterious force. A puppet, with little thought and action of its own.

These people are obviously specially trained, are they dead soldiers?

Bai Yiling and Xie Xi glanced at each other, feeling that something was wrong, and immediately walked down the mountain.

It's just that one of the two sides is on the top of the mountain and the other is on the mountainside. Although it seems not far away, they have to make a detour to get there. When they arrived at the place, the team of men in black had already gone far. Leaving bits and pieces of water stains.

Bai Yiling bent down and touched a little with his finger, his face changed slightly.

That's not water, it's oil!

Bai Yiling frowned: "System, where are these people going with so much oil?"

Even if the system is usually silly, seeing the solemn expression of the host at this time, it is a little anxious, and it has searched hard, but there is no gain.

[Sorry for the host, there is no description of this plot in the original book!Searching again, tick tock tick tock——]

Bai Yiling said: "No need, you can test again..."

His voice was tense: "Check Tongtian Ridge at this time, if there are any dangerous goods, hurry up."

The system started running quickly: [Detecting, detecting and accelerating!Tick ​​tick... Report to the host that a large number of explosive items were found in Tongtian Ridge.Your fox has entered the dangerous range, please be vigilant to the host! 】

Bai Yiling's fingers suddenly tightened.

The system's detection results were very accurate. At this time, both Lu Yu and Lu Qi had reached Tongtian Ridge, but the teams of the two sides had not met yet.

Lu Qi didn't know that something happened to Sang Hongxian, but he was only planning on Luyu's actions.Now that Wagga City has been lost, another Tibetan forest city has become an important place that both sides want to fight for.

Lu Yu must have planned to rush over there before him and take the city down, so he had to do the opposite.To go to Tibetan Forest City, one must pass Tongtian Ridge. Lu Qi did not take the road, but led his troops to ambush on both sides of Tongtian Ridge, preparing to catch Lu Yu by surprise when he passed by.

The mountains on both sides of Tongtian Ridge were high and steep, and the terrain was steep. There was no way to go, but the more it was like this, the less likely it was that Lu Yu would think that someone would ambush here.Lu Qi personally led his soldiers and ordered them to cut down trees and go up the mountain.

He had investigated the terrain here before, and finally found a way to go up the mountain from the dead end.The soldiers were able to ride forward at first, until the road became more and more rugged, and all the people had to get off their horses, leaning on sticks in their hands, and proceeding cautiously.

The narrow mountain road can only accommodate two riders side by side, but Tongtian Ridge below can be overlooked more and more clearly because of the rising height.

Lu Qi ordered people to stack boulders by the side of the road, so that if someone passed by below, they could push down the boulders first and attack.He just didn't know why, although everything was proceeding according to the plan, he felt some inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.

Lu Qi has always been conceited about his superior strategy, but he has to admit that his young nephew is also not a simple person. In his heart, he is very afraid of Lu Yu.

He beckoned Wang Jing, his most trusted attendant, and ordered in a low voice, "Go ahead and check..."

Before finishing this sentence, several horses not far away suddenly neighed in shock, and people stood up, and then, a sharp "swoosh" pierced through the air, and a sharp arrow flashed towards Lu Qi is coming!

"Chong!"

Lu Qi reacted very quickly, turned around and drew his sword abruptly, and made a backhand strike. The point of the arrow brushed his cheek, and nailed straight into the ground, scaring Wang Jing, who was waiting for his orders, into a cold sweat.

Wang Jing shouted: "My lord, be careful!"

Lu Qi's face remained unchanged, but he already knew something bad was going on in his heart, and he shouted loudly: "Give me an order, and everyone retreats to the east immediately!"

At this time, chaos had already occurred, and cold arrows were flying in the grass. Fortunately, the soldiers were prepared, and after the initial panic, they raised their shields and hid behind.

On such a difficult mountain road, Lu Qi also asked the soldiers to carry shields, just to prevent the dense forest and deep grass from stabbing people in the back. It really came in handy at this time.

He saw that the east side was the place where the arrows shot most densely, but he ordered the army to retreat to the east side under the protection of shields. This was because according to Lu Qi's judgment, since the arrow array was set up in that place, there would be no other arrows. ambush.On the contrary, the silent West is more dangerous.

Lu Qi's idea was correct, but the other party did not intend to make his plan come true.

At the same time as Lu Qi gave the order, three giant nets made of chains descended from the east, south, and north directions at the same time, blocking the way for the soldiers to retreat.

This kind of soft rope giant net is made of tough material, and there are sharp barbs on it. As long as you accidentally hook it on your body, it will be difficult to break free unless the skin is rotten, which is very fatal.The only disadvantage is that it is too heavy and the blocking area is limited.

If it was on the spacious road below, Lu Qi could easily lead his men around it, but now he has chosen such a path that is difficult even for a horse to turn around, it is tantamount to choosing a dead end for himself.

Lu Qiming knew that there was a trap, but he had no choice but to withdraw his troops along the only vacancy on the west side of the big net, and returned to the main road of Tongtian Ridge, which he had tried so hard to bypass just now.

Immediately, the chaotic footsteps of the soldiers stopped, and they all looked straight ahead of the road.

There are towering and steep mountains on both sides. In the middle of the road, Lu Yu stands on a horse with a peaceful look. The soldiers and horses behind him are lined up neatly, waiting for orders, obviously they have been waiting for a long time.

Seeing Lu Qi, he smiled lightly, and said casually: "Uncle Emperor, don't come here without any problems."

Lu Qi simply followed suit with a smile, and said, "It's been a long time, but His Majesty's demeanor is even better than before. It's probably because people are in good spirits on happy occasions. You must have been waiting for a long time for the day when you can get rid of me."

"That's not right." Lu Yu shook his head, like gossip, "You were the one who rebelled, and you were the one who led the troops to flee to Youzhou. I just had to endure the pain. Alas, uncle, we They are all surnamed Lu, do you really want to be a traitor? Does this make you worthy of the ancestors of the Lu family?"

Lu Qi couldn't help but sneer when he heard his hypocritical tone, knowing that Lu Yu didn't like to hear anything, he simply picked up the barbed words and said: "I'm just as good as myself. The winner is a prince and the loser is a thief. If you lose today, You are a traitor. At that time, whether it is the throne or... Xia Guang, it will return to me in the end."

Lu Yu used to be able to take care of himself, and was surrounded by heavy troops without looking confused. Now when he heard Lu Qi mention Bai Yiling, his body shook slightly, and the smile on his face faded.

Lu Yu's expression turned cold, and he said in a cold voice: "Are you worthy of saying this? You didn't seize the opportunity to take the throne, and you let him down. There are some things that you didn't cherish at the time, and you can't get them back if you give them up! Don't Tell me those things that are useless, I will tell you today, my people, I can protect them if I want them, don't worry about them!"

His tone was unprecedentedly severe, and if there was a cold light in his eyes, Lu Qi felt as if his heart had been pricked by something, so he couldn't help but sneered slightly, and said, "Then try it!"

Even if his ambush just now was unsuccessful, so what, now that the two sides are fighting head-to-head, they may not necessarily lose!

Lu Qi raised his hand slowly, and then swung it down. The soldiers behind him set their arrows on the string one after another. The cold light on the tip of the arrow almost formed a dazzling light curtain. , The sound of killing came, and the sword light came out!

With a flash of the sword in Lu Yu's hand, he jumped off the horse and stabbed at Lu Qi's chest. Lu Qi took a step back and raised his sword to parry, his wrist was numb from the shock.

He also practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he is proficient in bow and horse. He was proud of being both civil and military, but in the confrontation at this time, he was greatly surprised.

Lu Yu usually didn't take many shots, but for the first time Lu Qi realized that the opponent's martial arts were so superb, a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes, and then he aroused his anger, swung his sword and slashed at Lu Yu.

Seeing that Lu Yu was not very popular, he put on a one-on-one stance, Lu Qidao: "Your Majesty will go into battle in person, I am really flattered!"

"I'm not only the emperor, I'm also a man." Lu Yu looked solemn, stepped sideways, and backhanded Lu Qi's sword, "I once swore that I would never let anyone hurt my beloved again. Whenever , no matter who it is, whoever intends to harm him is my enemy!"

With a sound of "tearing", the screaming sound of swords hitting each other pierced through Lu Yu's ears, and Lu Yu added bitterly: "I wanted to beat you up a long time ago!"

The sword light caught his face cold, stirring up a gust of wind, Lu Qigao shouted "Good time", backed up and dodged the sword, but was kicked in the lower abdomen by Lu Yu.

Lu Qi's lips were bloodshot, he gritted his teeth without crying out for pain, but as he retreated, six dark guards in black appeared around Lu Yu silently and surrounded him.

Lu Yu raised his eyebrows and let out a slight snort.

It seems that what happened just now was deliberately contrived by Lu Qi, to lure him away from the other soldiers to fight alone, and then use the hidden guards who had ambushed here in advance.After all, even if the two armies had the same number, the soldiers under Lu Qi had already exhausted a lot of energy, and there was no time to spend with them.

If he could be surrounded and killed here, it would be a good way to end the battle, but unfortunately, such a small number of people might not be enough.Lu Yu laughed, but instead aroused the pride in his chest, he didn't care at all: "Are there only six? Then let's go together!"

He said to let the other party go up together, but his figure was already flying up like a dragon coming out of the clouds. He waved his sleeve and pressed it directly towards the chest of the nearest person. At the same time, the long sword in his right hand flew up, turning into an afterimage in the air, Lasing out in the opposite direction!

In an instant, he fired two moves in succession, knocking one of the hidden guards into the air on the spot, and the other hidden guard dodged in time, only to be cut in the face by the flying sword.

When Lu Yu retreated back, he just raised his hand to catch it. The sword returned to his hand, and the stream of light seemed to draw an arc in mid-air, with hot blood splattering, and another person's throat was cut and he fell to the ground and died.

He had already dealt with several people in less than a moment, and the other soldiers around him were going to rescue them, so it seemed that they saved effort. Now a small group of people rushed over to protect Lu Yu, who hadn't fought enough. In the distance, shouts of killing shook the sky, and the bloody aura became more and more intense.

On Luyu's side, teams of elite soldiers formed a snake array, cut the enemy army into small groups and killed them one by one. The situation of the battle gradually became overwhelming.

Lu Yu got on his horse and shouted loudly: "Everyone here is a good man. They came out of the Jin Kingdom together. They are supposed to protect their families and defend the country and work together. Why are they killing each other here? I don't want to commit murder in vain. I put down my weapons and surrender. Those who dare not die!"

His words were mixed with true energy, he uttered them loudly, they fell into everyone's ears, they could hear them clearly, and he couldn't help but be shaken for a moment.

Lu Qi reprimanded: "Fake benevolence and hypocrisy are just words without proof, no one will believe you!"

After he finished saying this, he saw Lu Yu's lips twitched coldly, and a sword pierced the wind, striking in front of him in a blink of an eye.Lu Qi had been prepared for a long time. After getting out of the way, he rode his horse back, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Wang Jing, send out a signal to change the front and withdraw from the mountain pass on the south side!"

Lu Yu calmly said, "Wang Jing?"

Lu Qi didn't understand what he meant for a while, thinking that Lu Yu was asking about this person's name. After all, when they were in his house together, Bai Yiling and Wang Jing also knew each other. Maybe he mentioned it to Lu Yu, but it's unknown.

If he brought up the past, what would he say?

Lu Qi's thoughts couldn't help but drift, but after a moment's absence, he quickly brought his attention back to the battlefield, and was about to speak when he suddenly felt a chill on his neck, and the chill invaded his body.

Lu Qi slowly lowered his head, and found that there was a sword on his neck, and the person holding the sword was Wang Jing.

At the same time, Zhou Gong, the great Sima under Lu Yu, had already chopped off the head of the enemy general with a long knife in his hand, and cheers were everywhere.

Zhou Gong raised the head high, wiped the blood from his face, and shouted loudly: "Our army has won a great victory, long live Your Majesty!"

All the soldiers who surrounded Lu Qi's army also shouted in unison: "Our army has won a great victory, long live Your Majesty!"

The echoing sound spread to the outside, and the sound went straight into the sky. Those who were still stubborn saw the coach captured, and finally had no choice but to drop their weapons.

Lu Yu said: "Lu Qi, can you admit defeat?"

Lu Qi sneered, even if he could do a lot of things to survive and have a chance to make a comeback, but if he had to bow to Lu Yu in order to steal his life today, that would be impossible.He would rather die.

He was arrested and did not struggle needlessly. He just turned his head and looked at Wang Jing coldly, and asked, "Why did you betray me? What good did Lu Yu promise you?"

Even though he was defeated, his gaze still made people habitually awed. Wang Jing lowered his head, not daring to look at Lu Qi for a moment, and said, "I don't want to be a secret guard."

Lu Qi felt that he might not understand what he meant: "What did you say?"

"Let me answer for him." Lu Yu said, "At the beginning, Ah Ling thanked you for saving him, and wanted to repay you by staying by your side to protect him, but you didn't trust him and forced him away abruptly. I deliberately 'promoted' Wang Jing to let Ah Ling know what he's interested in. But have you ever thought that there are not many fools like him who are willing to repay with their lives for a little favour... no, no more."

Hearing what Lu Yu said, Wang Jing couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable, but he didn't regret what he had done.

He was not wrong, it was indeed Lu Qi who rescued him from the dead and rewarded him with a bite of food, but so what?Is it because of this that he has to go through life and death for this person, and experience all kinds of danger and pain?It would be better not to save him!

People don't kill heaven and earth for themselves, he keeps this life because he wants to become an official and make a fortune, and he won't get any benefits if he doesn't work for others!

One sentence is like a thousand arrows piercing the heart, the pain is unbearable, Lu Qi's brows were cold, pointing at Lu Yu, he said after a long time: "Okay, you are fine, you - you are really poisonous!"

At the beginning, he didn't take Bai Yiling's dedication seriously, pushed him away with his own hands, and promoted Wang Jing, but in the end, it was Wang Jing who betrayed him and made him fall short.

At this point in the battle, Lu Yu has a lot of ways to defeat him, but he chose this way to let himself experience the feeling of regret!

Facing Lu Qi's accusation, Lu Yu did not deny it, and said flatly: "It's generally poisonous, not as good as the emperor's uncle."

He ignored Lu Qi, turned around and ordered: "Hurry up and take the prisoners lightly, withdraw the troops and return to the camp!"

Bai Yiling's other end must have ended, maybe he is waiting for him at this time, Lu Yu can't wait to go back.

However, at this moment, he suddenly and keenly felt that the ground under his feet seemed to shake.

The shaking was very light, and the feeling of dizziness passed in just a flash, which almost made people suspect that it was just an illusion.

But then, there was an earth-shattering loud noise not far away, and the sound wave quickly spread outwards, thick smoke was everywhere, and the ground under his feet was shaking.

There was an uproar all around, no matter which side the soldiers were on, their faces were full of astonishment, they looked around for the direction of the sound, but before they could find the right place, another sound came, but this time the sound was even closer Some.

Lu Yu said in a deep voice: "Quickly withdraw the troops, don't panic. General Mu, you go to the front of the team to lead. Shang Xiao, what's the situation?"

Shang Xiao ran over from not far away and reported to Lu Yu: "Your Majesty, there is an explosion under the mountain not far away, and there is more than one explosion point, and it is approaching our side!"

Lu Yu made a decisive decision: "There is a smell of gunpowder in the air. It must be man-made. Others will withdraw as usual, and you can bring people to search. As long as you find the detonator, things will be done in time!"

The scope of the explosion was huge, and the opponent must have buried gunpowder at the bottom of the mountain, detonating layer by layer. At this speed, no matter how fast the army moves, it is impossible for all of them to escape. The only way to stop it in time is the best policy.

The more this is the time, the more you can't panic. At this time, someone came to report in a hurry, saying that the soldiers in front were a little flustered and wanted to know what happened. The two generals were trying to comfort them.

Lu Qi was also shocked by the news. Seeing Lu Yu looked at him suspiciously, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and blurted out, "It's Sang Hongxian!"

Sang Hongxian, an insidious and cunning old man, talks nicely, but he is actually ready to let himself and Lu Yu die together, so that he can win without any effort!

It's so secretive, I underestimated him!

Lu Qi gritted his teeth secretly in his heart, he didn't know that Sang Hongxian had also been defeated at this time.But for this sake, since he fell into Lu Yu's hands anyway, he was already dead no matter what, and there was nothing to be afraid of.

At this time, seeing Lu Yu's troubles, Lu Qi's anger subsided a little, and he couldn't help but secretly sneered in his heart.

Probably this is the so-called report of the present world. Lu Yu is good at collecting information and instigating people's hearts, but now it's his turn to cause chaos in the army.I am very curious, how Lu Yu will cover up the facts this time and stabilize the morale of the army!

What Lu Qi is best at is making up nonsense to find reasons, and he has already turned seven or eight kinds of excuses in his mind in an instant, waiting to see how Lu Yu will react.

Faced with this situation, Lu Yu did not hesitate at all.

He nodded to the little soldier who came to report back, then raised his voice, and said calmly: "Soldiers, there are explosives buried in the ground of Tongtian Ridge, and they are being detonated continuously. At this moment, we are already searching for the perpetrators."

His voice infused with true strength spread throughout the valley, calming down the panicked soldiers.

Lu Yu said again: "No matter what the situation is, I am here. You can retreat in order according to the plan."

Since there were explosives buried underground, there was no need to run first or second, but the attitude of the emperor made everyone feel at ease.

They suddenly believed that as long as His Majesty stands here, any difficulty can be overcome, and any battle can be won!

The soldiers calmed down, and retreated quickly and orderly according to the arrangement just now.

Fortunately, the fox investigation team led by Shang Xiao was also able to move quickly. After the third explosion at a closer distance, he took Lu Yu to a hillside and pointed out to him two men in black who were about to ignite .

Lu Qi was being escorted, and seeing Lu Yu's leaving back, his lips moved, his eyes flickered slightly, but he still didn't say anything in the end.

When Lu Yu saw it, he couldn't help frowning.

During each explosion, those who dared to ignite the explosives had to pay with their lives. Now there were very few dead soldiers left, and the fourth time those who planned to detonate the explosives were arranged one person on each side of the southeast and southwest.

The two locations were ignited at the same time. As long as one side succeeded, many soldiers would be killed or injured on their side. The best way was to shoot both of them to death at the same time from a distance.If they come one by one, no matter which side is alarmed, everyone will finish playing together.

But the distance is too far now, Lu Yu is the only one who has this skill, and he can't shoot arrows in two different directions at the same time - what should I do?

Lu Yu didn't delay anymore, and said in a deep voice: "Shang Xiao, hold up the arrow, you are in charge of the southeast, and I am in charge of the southwest."

Shang Xiao trembled, and blurted out: "Your Majesty, I can't do it!"

Lu Yu said: "Now we can only try it, there is no time to delay, let's take a gamble."

When he spoke, he had already bent his bow and set his arrow, trying to aim at the opponent: "Anyway, it's not your fault."

His tone was not that the emperor was speaking to his courtiers, but it was still the same as when he was in the frontier.Shang Xiao's eyes became hot, his fingers trembled slightly, but he still held up the arrow as he said.

Seeing that the people on both sides who were preparing to light the fire had already found the lead, Lu Yu had no time to delay: "Let's shoot arrows at the same time, three, two, one...let go!"

Squatting neatly at their feet was a group of fluffy little fox scouts, also wearing small armor with belts. They all stared at the long arrows flying out, and every fluff on their bodies stood up nervously. up.

Lu Yu's arrow pierced through the throat of the man in black who had ignited and killed him on the spot.Shang Xiao's aim was excellent, but in the end it was still a bit off, he missed the man in black and fell to the ground exhausted.

The man in black noticed the death of another companion, and immediately realized the danger. He quickly raised his hand and moved the flame towards the fuse. At this time, it was too late for Lu Yu to shoot an arrow.

And just at the very moment, the sound of the long arrow piercing through the air was heard, and another arrow was shot from another direction, the arrow split the air, and shot the flame in the hands of the igniter with incomparable precision.

The flame flickered in the air and then went out, and three arrows swished non-stop, and then came, nailing the man in black to the ground.

The soldiers at the foot of the mountain were stunned by this scene, and then, cheers suddenly sounded like a fountain erupting suddenly, and the joy of the rest of the life filled the surroundings.

Lu Yu raised his head suddenly, and saw a person standing on the hillside opposite him, also looking up at each other.

The yellow autumn sun fell on him, his clothes were in the wind, and his appearance was radiant.

It was Bai Yiling.
