Chapter 583 Death is imminent
Jiu Chou protected Shen Shuyi, and he obviously realized that the other party was a master who could fight with him.
In just a moment, both of them attacked at the same time.
In the cramped and narrow alley, Jiu Chou and Ge Tingxuan fought, but fortunately, because they entered the alley, the archer who was good at shooting lost the initiative.
"Miss, go first!" Jiuchou spoke in a deep voice, his eyes full of fighting spirit.
Shen Shuyi did not delay and quickened his pace. Qin Xin and Jiang Po protected him on the side, and the group walked very quickly.
Seeing that the person was about to leave, Ge Tingxuan turned around and ran after Shen Shuyi.
The Kanglong Mace in Jiuchou's hand directly blocked his long sword and entangled him, leaving him no chance at all.
"Your opponent is here!" Jiuchou shouted in a low voice.
Ge Tingxuan tried several times, but failed to get rid of it. The more anxious he was, the more he was entangled by Jiuchou.
In the end, the thin man cursed under his breath, and was obviously annoyed. He simply calmed down and dealt with Jiuchou.
The two men fought very fiercely. After a while, Jiu Chou kicked Ge Tingxuan in the chest.
Ge Tingxuan was kicked to the ground. After getting up, his eyes were fierce. Just when Jiuchou thought he would come forward again, the man suddenly turned over and chased after Shen Shuyi.
Jiuchou was stunned for a moment, cursed under his breath, and immediately followed.
As a general who had once stationed at the border and guarded various cities, Lu Xiao was obviously fully prepared for this game.
Shen Shuyi and his companions had just walked into a small path when a large net covered them head on. Qin Xin and Jian Po reacted very quickly, but even so, they were still delayed for some time by the net.
Shen Shuyi looked up and saw a slender figure standing on the eaves not far away. In the dark night, the man was holding a longbow with three arrows on it, pointing at Shen Shuyi's eyebrows.
In an instant, Shen Shuyi felt a chill rising up, as if he was being stared at by a wild beast.
She moved very quickly, took out a fire starter and threw it at the pile of dry grass on the old car beside her.
Because it was cold and charcoal was extremely expensive, beggars often spread thick dry grass on the ground to keep out the cold and keep warm.
As it happened, the streets were filled with straw mats, and at the nearest place, there was a mess of dry grass piled on a dilapidated old car.
The firelight flashed, and the girl who was pulling the arrow was obviously dazzled. She subconsciously took a few steps forward to find her perspective again.
But at this moment, Shen Shuyi and his group had completely broken through the net and escaped to one side.
The girl cursed inwardly and chased after him again, but the direction Shen Shuyi fled was in line with the wind. At this moment, light snow was floating in the sky and thick smoke was rising from the dry grass on the ground.
She chased several times, but found that the surroundings were blurry and difficult to distinguish the figures.
"How cunning!"
The girl cursed under her breath but didn't give up and continued chasing.
The arrow wound on Shen Shuyi's shoulder was burning with pain. The arrow was cut off by Qin Xin, but there was no time to pull it out.
"Miss, be careful!" Jinzhu was sharp-eyed and saw a long sword coming at him. He pushed Shen Shuyi away and a bloody mark was left on his arm.
Without giving the men time to breathe, the girl on the eaves drew her longbow again, and several arrows flew towards them again.
Shen Shuyi reacted very quickly, but Jinzhu was a step slower because of her injury. A sharp arrow penetrated into her back, making a muffled sound.
"Jinzhu!" Shen Shuyi grabbed her and pulled her forward: "Hold on for a while."
Jinzhu forced out a pale smile: "I'm fine."
Shen Shuyi didn't waste any time. He poured out a few pills from the porcelain bottle and stuffed them into her mouth.
The girl finally succeeded and was in a good mood.
"Today, you are all my prey. I'll see where you can run!"
Shen Shuyi and his group ran forward for a while until they reached the end of an empty alley, which was the end of a dead end.
Ge Tingxuan and the young girl followed behind with a group of men in black.
The girl clapped her hands and said with a smile: "It seems that God is going to take you away. There is only one way left, death!"
Shen Shuyi stopped and decided not to run anymore. He turned around and looked at the group of people behind him.
When the girl didn't speak, she didn't recognize this person.
Now that she spoke, she remembered.
Lu Shuang, Lu Xiao's granddaughter, was not much older than her. She had learned archery since she was young and often followed behind him when he was on the battlefield. She had shot and killed two deputy generals of the enemy country. She was deeply favored by Lu Xiao, who cultivated her personally. Now she has achieved some success.
Shen Shuyi remembered her, probably because in his previous life, after Xiao Heyu failed in his bid for succession, the Lu family was implicated and many people were killed.
Lu Shuang was so bold as to run away and try to rob the execution ground. In the end, Xiao Tingshan rescued him and used him for his own benefit. However, he was later killed by her.
She can accept a person not choosing to be kind, but she cannot accept a person choosing to be evil.
In her previous life, after Lu Shuang was recruited by Xiao Tingshan, she was looked down upon in the army because she was a woman.
Then she chose to compete in archery with others. She blindfolded herself and picked several children from the displaced people to use as targets.
In that competition, four children died. They were all five or six years old and very naive.
She couldn't stand this kind of thing, so she asked someone to kill Lu Shuang. For this, Xiao Tingshan became even more dissatisfied with her and had a cold war with her for a long time.
But even if she had to do it again a hundred times, she would still make the same choice!
She understood the difficulties of joining the army as a woman, her ambition to make a name for herself, and her desire to restore the Lu family.
But she could not accept that she was using those hungry children as stepping stones and their weak bodies as tools to climb up.
"Do it! Kill Shen Shuyi!" Ge Tingxuan spoke in a deep voice. The seemingly weak man was actually quite decisive and obviously did not hesitate at all.
"Wait, why not use them for me to practice on first!" The girl raised her hand to stop him. Although her face could not be seen clearly, there was a bit of defiantness in her attitude.
Ge Tingxuan frowned, obviously disagreeing.
But Lu Shuang is Lu Xiao's granddaughter, so he naturally has to listen to Lu Shuang's words.
At this moment, Jiu Chou followed closely.
Without waiting for Ge Tingxuan to speak again, a cold light flashed, and the Kanglong Mace with a tremendous force smashed down towards Lu Shuang.
Fortunately, Ge Tingxuan reacted very quickly and pulled Lu Shuang over.
The long arrow in Lu Shuang's hand instantly lost its aim, and he staggered after being pulled by Ge Tingxuan, looking a little embarrassed.
Jiuchou's Kanglong Mace smashed to the ground, sparks flew out instantly on the snowy ground, and a big hole was created.
Lu Shuang was breathing heavily, his eyes fell on Jiuchou, and he couldn't help but pause.
Wow, what a handsome man.
Lu Shuang refused to accept it, her eyes sparkling with excitement: "Capture him alive, I want him to be my slave!"
Ge Tingxuan frowned and stepped forward to face Jiuchou.
Although Lu Shuang was willful, he did not forget the purpose of his trip. He turned around, pulled the longbow, and aimed at Shen Shuyi again.
Shen Shuyi raised the corners of his lips, his almond eyes were cold.
Lu Shuang shot out three long arrows and said sternly: "Shen Shuyi, you are about to die, why are you laughing!"
