Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 302 Frustration
Zhenan's face turned red and white for a while.He turned around and looked at the three guards who fell to the ground, his cheeks twitching uncontrollably.

They are all his bodyguards, and he knows exactly what their skills are.Even if he is not one of the best warriors in a hundred, he is by no means a weak player.Wearing iron armor, being shot at fifty paces away is really appalling.

You must know that this is not a sneak attack, but a premeditated escape.Except for the iron armor on their bodies, there is no burden that drags them down.If you can't escape in this situation, is there any possibility of surviving a hasty attack?

Even Prince Aliusu may not have such archery skills.Their strength may be about the same, but the shooting speed and accuracy of this Han man are slightly higher than that of Aliusu.For masters like them, this seemingly insignificant gap may be a world of difference, and it may not be possible to surpass it after a lifetime of practice.

Zhen'an's heart was beating wildly, but he refused to admit defeat.He clapped his hands as if coping, twisted his mouth, and joked: "The envoy is really good at archery, but it's a pity that one person was missed."

"Who said I missed it?" Liang Xiao raised the bow in his hand, slowly picked up the last arrow, and put it on the string. "My bow can shoot 120 steps. Before he runs 120 steps, he can't say that I missed it."

Zhen'an's complexion changed, his neck didn't move, and his eyes moved. "But if the envoy can't even see him, how can he shoot?"

"Who said you have to use your eyes when you shoot an arrow?" Liang Xiao raised his head and glanced at Zhen'an with a smile, his expression relaxed and full of confidence.

Zhen'an sneered: "You don't need to look with your eyes, do you have to look with your heart? I've heard of such lofty theories, but unfortunately I've never seen it with my own eyes. I'm lucky today, but I want to see how miraculous the envoy's archery is. Shoot without looking."

"Okay." Liang Xiao laughed. "Sigma, blindfold me."

"Here." Sigma took out a silk handkerchief from his bosom, and covered Liang Xiao's eyes.Liang Xiao sniffed and smiled slightly. "It smells so good." Sigma smiled embarrassedly, bowed her head and stepped back.

Liang Xiao turned around slowly, looked at the hiding place of the last guard, and raised his voice, "How long are you going to hide? If you don't run away, I will shoot." Ready to shoot.

Zhen An was taken aback.The guard was behind Liang Xiao on the right, out of Liang Xiao's line of sight.But after Liang Xiao turned around, he was facing the direction of the guard, exactly, as if he saw the guard rushing in with his own eyes.

Does he have eyes behind his back?Zhen An stared at the back of Liang Xiao's head, looking again and again.

"Did you pee your pants in fright, or did your legs go so weak that you didn't even dare to run?" Liang Xiao joked.

Pang Shuo and others on the side laughed loudly, and the four of Alpha laughed even more, their flowers and branches trembling.The guard hid in the grass, heard the laughter, and could no longer hold his breath.He raised his head quietly, looked at Liang Xiao in the distance, saw that Liang Xiao was blindfolded, he breathed a sigh of relief, and rushed out suddenly.

At the moment when he just sprang out, Liang Xiao quickly raised his bow, his bow was like a full moon, and his arrow was like a shooting star.Before the guard stepped out on the grass, the arrow landed in front of him.He only had time to get out of the way sideways before he was shot in the lower abdomen.The remaining force of the arrow caused him to roll over and roll along the hillside a few times, screaming terribly.

"what--"

Liang Xiao put down his bow, removed the silk handkerchief covering his eyes, and smacked his lips, feeling a little regretful. "I still missed the shot. I'm really sorry. Messenger, why don't we try again. This time it's you, and see if you can run out."

Zhenan shook his head again and again.He didn't have the skills of those four guards, and he didn't dare to make fun of his own life.

Liang Xiao warmly invited: "Anyway, I have nothing to do, let's try."

Zhenan firmly refused.No matter how Liang Xiao tempted him, he would not agree.Liang Xiao shrugged his shoulders, his face was disappointed, and he was not in the mood to take care of Zhenan.While Zhen An breathed a sigh of relief, she realized that her back was covered in cold sweat.He asked people to lift up the four guards and inspect them carefully, and his heart was even more frightened.

All four arrows pierced the iron armor, and three of them were shot in the heart and died on the spot.In the end, the guard with the little arrow in his belly saved his life, but he couldn't afford to be seriously injured.Only then did Zhen An understand Liang Xiao's intentions, and regretted it too late.These four people are the strongest around him. Now Liang Xiao shot and killed three of them and seriously injured one. Even if he wanted to escape, there was no one to protect him. In this deep mountain, there is only one way to die.

What's more, he was not sure about escaping from Liang Xiao's arrow.

Zhen'an sat blankly for a while, and had no choice but to put away her thoughts of running away, and walked honestly with Liang Xiao.

Liang Xiao happily accepted him, and chatted happily with him, no one mentioned the four guards.

The bison roared repeatedly, crouched down, covered its head with the shield, and stabbed out with the spear in its right hand.

The Wusun knight came on his horse and slashed at the shield, "Bang!" Sparks shot out.At the same time, the spear in the bison's hand pierced the knight's abdomen.The knight fell off his horse, spitting blood.Before the buffalo had time to pull out the spear, another Wusun knight rushed over. Before he had time to think about it, he protected his body with a shield and threw himself to the side with all his strength.

It's a pity that he was still a step too late, the Wusun knight rushed forward, and his horse's hoof stepped heavily on his shield.The buffalo was severely injured, he groaned, spit out a mouthful of blood, and the shield in his hand fell down.Knight Wusun raised his saber and slashed down with all his strength.The bison grinned miserably as he looked at the gleaming war horse.

"Whoosh!" A sharp arrow flew in the air and shot the Wusun knight to death.Li Shuyun came up on his horse and shot several arrows, knocking down three people. "Bison, get on your horse, get on your horse!"

The bison didn't dare to be negligent, stood up with force, pulled an unowned horse, turned on the horse, pulled out his own spear, kicked the horse, and rushed to the front of Li Shuyun. "Master Li, I will open the way for you."

"Okay, let's go out together." Li Shuyun shouted loudly, observing the surrounding situation nervously, and then shouted: "Xiangdong, join Linghu."

The bison turned the horse's head and rushed eastward.He wiped the blood from his mouth fiercely, and greeted the mercenaries he saw along the way. "Keep up! Keep up!"

The mercenaries followed one after another, gathered together again, and killed the Wusun people who were entangled with Linghu and others.

Seeing this, the Wusun people did not dare to fight any more and withdrew from the battlefield one after another.

The mercenaries also slowed down their horses, panting heavily.After fighting hard for half a day, they were also exhausted.

Li Shuyun circled the horse and observed the surrounding situation. Beads of sweat rolled on his forehead, melted the blood on his face, dripped down his neck, and soaked his shirt.The jersey had long been soaked in blood and sweat, and not a single piece was dry.The weather in June was already hot. Putting on a thick battle robe, I was already covered in sweat even if I didn't move, not to mention fighting fiercely with the Wusun people.

Panting heavily, Li Shuyun called Fire Meteor and Xueying, and asked them to arrange people to guard around. After thinking for a long time, he turned back to Batu. "Prince, we may have to change our plan. If we go this way, we won't be able to reach Chang'an."

Batu nodded palely.Although he has not experienced many battles, he also knows that the situation is critical.After breaking up with Aliusu, they entered the pastures of the Wusun people.The large-scale caravan attracted more and more Wusun people, but within ten days, they fought seven times, the intervals became shorter and shorter, but the casualties increased.If this trend continues, they will definitely not see Chang'an.

"What do you propose?"

"Find a hidden place, hide some of the goods, and move forward lightly." Li Shuyun turned his attention to Guo Wenbin and the few businessmen. "Otherwise, we wouldn't be alive to see Chang'an."

"Hiding?" Guo Wenbin was taken aback. "When can I get it? What if I lose it? This is all our wealth."

"I said, find a hidden place." Li Shuyun gritted his teeth. "Before I left, my lord said that if you keep the green hills, you don't have to worry about running out of firewood. As long as you are alive, no matter how much you lose, you can always earn back. But if you are dead, what's the use of being rich? "

He looked at the merchants and took a breath. "Everyone, we are just hiding a part, reducing the burden and speeding up. As long as we can get to Chang'an, even if there is only [-]% of the goods, it is enough for you to make a small fortune. It is impossible to lose nothing. We just temporarily hide these treasures here. , it’s not as a gift, it’s better than being snatched by the Wusun people, right?”

The businessmen thought it over and felt that what Li Shuyun said was reasonable.What they are selling this time are all lucrative treasures, as long as [-]% of the goods can be safely transported to Chang'an, they will have no losses.Besides, Li Shuyun's main task was to escort Batu, and if he was annoyed, Li Shuyun took the mercenaries away, and they became lambs to be slaughtered.

After the discussion was made, Li Shuyun immediately arranged for someone to find a suitable place to hide the treasure.Looking at the bags of pearls, jade and gemstones, Guo Wenbin sighed: "I thought I could make a lot of money this time, but I didn't expect to give up halfway. When will I really get through this business."

"Soon." Li Shuyun comforted him, "This day won't take too long."

"I hope so." Guo Wenbin shook his head, obviously not confident. "Although this road is closer, there are so many oasis and small countries along the way, and the geese pluck their feathers, it is not as good as the grassland."

"Whether it's an oasis or a grassland, sooner or later it will be ours." Li Shuyun looked at Batu in the distance and lowered his voice. "When you arrive in Chang'an, you'll know. My son Lang of the Han family is unparalleled in the world. We only need to wait for the imperial court's order to go out in a big way. In a few years, we can sweep the grassland. At that time, you will be able to move unimpeded."

Guo Wenbin tilted his head, glanced at him, and smiled silently.

Seeing that Guo Wenbin was dubious, Li Shuyun didn't say much, but straightened his chest, and his eyes shone with confidence.

Two days later, they buried most of the jewels, packed lightly, and set off again to Chang'an.
