Chapter 68
Ling Xiao put Zuo Xiangning on the horse and rode the same horse with him.

"I can do it myself..." Zuo Xiangning saw the other soldiers looking at them curiously, and whispered: "Everyone else is watching."

"The mountain road is difficult to walk, and you can't run with your horse skills." Ling Xiao whispered: "If you want to go, you have to ride with me?"

Zuo Xiangning stopped arguing, but looked at the dozen or so people standing not far away and said, "Can you bring more people?"

"What are you doing with so many people? Your brother is just doing a routine inspection, what do you have to worry about?" Ling Xiao said with a smile: "Besides, these ten people are my personal guards, and their skills are beyond the reach of ordinary people. .”

Ling Xiao slapped the horse on the butt and rushed out of the military camp with Zuo Xiangning, heading straight to the west of the city.

"Jinmin Mountain is to the east!" Zuo Xiangning hurriedly pulled Ling Xiao's sleeve, "You are going west!"

"Your eldest brother is going west. He has to patrol from post to post. In one day and one night, he shouldn't be able to go very far." Ling Xiao said, "Don't make trouble. Let's go to the post in front to ask first."

"No! I want to go to Jinmin Mountain!" Zuo Xiangning struggled excitedly and almost fell off the horse.

Ling Xiao was startled, holding her waist tightly with one hand, tightening the reins with the other hand, and said angrily: "Do you want to die?"

"He must have gone to Jinmin Mountain!" Zuo Xiangning suddenly thought that the reason why her eldest brother died in the previous life was because everyone thought he was going west, but in fact he was besieged by the enemy in the east.

"Okay! I think you won't give up until you hit the south wall!" Ling Xiao glanced at Zuo Xiangning angrily, turned his horse's head, and ran towards the east.

Zuo Xiangning pursed her lips tightly.

She knew that Ling Xiao was really angry this time.

But she would rather he be angry than something really happen to his eldest brother.

But she was vaguely worried. What if the place of her eldest brother's accident changed in this life?

"You...can you let half of the people go west?"

"Xu——" Ling Xiao tightened the reins again and asked doubtfully: "Where did you get the news?"

Zuo Xiangning remained silent.

"If you don't tell me, then we will go back to the military camp!" After Ling Xiao said in a deep voice, he led the horse's rope to the military camp not far away, "I tell you, under my skin, there is no one I can't see. People who live there! You included!”

Zuo Xiangning was so anxious that she took his arm and begged softly: "I'll tell you when I see my elder brother, okay?"

"Say it now!" Ling Xiao also became stubborn.

Seeing that Zuo Xiangning was so weak, she sullenly said in a cold voice: "If you waste time and cause my eldest brother to suffer some serious consequences, I will never forgive you!"

With Ling Xiao's temperament, no one can threaten him.

But this person was Zuo Xiangning, so he had to be wary.

He divided the people into two groups, one group went west and the other group followed him east.

"If you don't tell the truth then, I won't let you go!" He held her firmly in his arms and rode towards Jinmin Mountain.

Two hours later, they arrived at Jinmin Mountain.

It was quiet at night, and there was no movement at all.

"Go south for another fifty miles." Zuo Xiangning said unwillingly.

Without saying a word, Ling Xiao took her and galloped southward again.

Half an hour later, there was a faint flash of fire ahead. Ling Xiao turned his ears and heard the sound of swords clashing in front.

He hurriedly asked everyone to stop and sent two people to see the situation.

"The Tatars have surrounded the mountain. I don't know who is surrounding the mountain." The guard came back and reported: "There are about 400 Tatars."

Ling Xiao left Zuo Xiangning on the horse with a solemn expression, pointed at the two guards, and said, "Follow them and go back first. I'll take people to take a look." "I'll go with you!" Zuo Xiangning said with a white face. Face said.

The person on the mountain must be her eldest brother Zuo Zixi.

"Follow me, I'm still busy protecting you." Ling Xiao, who was still angry just now, has long since lost his temper and said softly: "Don't worry, if it's your eldest brother on the mountain, I will definitely keep him safe. Bring it back to you."

"You...you can bring these two people over, I can be alone." Zuo Xiangning thought about the three or four hundred people on the other side, and there were only a few of them, and her voice trembled with fear, "One more person is one person."

"Nonsense!" Ling Xiao handed the horse rope to one of the men in black, "You take her back to the military camp and make sure she is safe."

He took out the token and gave it to another person and said: "Go to the nearest outpost to mobilize manpower to support."

Zuo Xiangning didn't dare to delay any longer. She looked at Ling Xiao who was standing under the horse and whispered: "You and my elder brother, you all must come back safely!"

"Don't worry." Ling Xiao winked at the two guards.

The two guards took Zuo Xiangning and left quickly.

Ling Xiao watched them go away, and then quietly ran to the foot of the mountain with a few people.

"Drive!" Zuo Xiangning rode her horse and ran forward with all her strength, but the horse ran slower and slower.

Zuo Xiang waited for the horse to run for more than ten miles, stopped the horse, and said to the two guards: "You are running too slowly with me. It is very safe here now. I will hide here and wait for you to come back." Find me."

"No, the prince..." the man in black said hurriedly: "We cannot disobey the prince's order."

"You just heard that there are three to four hundred Tatars at the foot of the mountain. Aren't you afraid that the prince will be in danger?" Zuo Xiangning said anxiously: "If you can hurry up for a quarter of an hour, the prince will be safer."

The two guards naturally knew that Zuo Xiangning was right, but they didn't dare to really throw Zuo Xiangning away.

"Put me on the tree." Zuo Xiangning urged: "We really can't waste any more time!"

Another man who was going to the outpost gritted his teeth and said, "Listen to the girl!"

"My subordinate is offended." He said as he jumped up from the ground with Zuo Xiangning in his arms and placed her on the thickest and highest branch. "Girl, please don't make a sound. If everything goes well, we will arrive at dawn Will come back."

Zuo Xiangning nodded, "You should also pay attention to safety."

She sat on a tree branch and looked into the distance.

I don’t know if Ling Xiao can save her eldest brother.

What would happen if Ling Xiao and his group of people forced their way in?
The Tatars are outnumbered and they are certainly no match for the Tatars.

Zuo Xiangning waited for more than two hours, until the east turned white, and she didn't even see the rescuer.

"What's going on?" Zuo Xiangning stretched her neck and looked in the direction of the two men in black.

Are the people at the outpost disobeying the men in black?

Zuo Xiangning wanted to get down from the tree anxiously, but the place where she was now was about ten meters above the ground, and she couldn't get down at all.

She waited anxiously until noon when she heard the sound of horse hooves in the distance.

But the sound of hoofbeats was single and unhurried, and it sounded like he was not the person she wanted to wait for.

At this time, Zuo Xiangning couldn't care much. She saw a white figure coming from a distance and hurriedly shouted: "Master, please stay! Master! Master!"

The man in white on horseback raised his head, looked at her and smiled: "Brother Jiang? What a coincidence! Are you here waiting for me?"

Zuo Xiangning stared at the person below and shouted in surprise: "Bai Fengyu?"
