Xuan Tian Ming's palace chase quickly chased Zi Rui, but the dark guards escorted Zi Rui back to Xiaozhou is also an urgent task, so the foot journey is so fast that they did not catch up with the darkness.

That night, the palace car stopped in a small town. Bai Ze bought a carriage back and decided to send two more people to send Song Kang back to Daying.First, to relieve the weight of the palace car, and secondly, it is useless to follow him, and to separate people to protect him.

The people in the town slept early, and only the lantern at the door of the inn was still on. Xuan Tianming asked Feng Yuheng for advice: "Should I rest for one night or continue to chase? If we continue to chase, we will change horses. Gallop, people are all right, but horses can't. "

Feng Yuheng wanted to continue chasing. The uneasy feeling was still very strong, but Xuan Tianming was right, people were fine, but horses were not good.The palace car only needs two horses to change, but what about the dark guards that follow?It is impossible for the long-term tracking to be followed by the dark guards with light skills. They also have to ride horses. This small town is so big, where to find so many good horses.

"Let's rest for a night." She was quite helpless in her words, and then she lifted the curtain and looked at the inn with the lantern still in her mind.

Xuan Tianming led her out of the car, and Huang Quan and Bai Ze stepped forward to buckle the door of the inn, and the store soon came out, a young man under twenty.The man looked out, and when he saw their palace car, he could not help but startled, and then he said something, you wait.

With a bang, the door closed again.

Xuan Tianming and Feng Yuheng glanced at each other, and they felt something was not right.

Not long afterwards, the door of the inn was opened again. This time the old man stood at the door and waved at them.Bai Ze rate advanced, and soon ran out, said to Xuan Tian: "Master, come in quickly."

Others hurried into the inn, followed the old man all the way to the backyard, and walked straight to the backyard to find that there was a carriage parked there.

Fengyu Heng groaned inwardly, and the "bad" feeling was even stronger.

The inn old man told them: "When it was dark, a group of people came and took a young master and said that it was too slow to take a carriage in a hurry, so they used this carriage and some silver coins to exchange a few fast horses with me. A grandpa told him when he was leaving, if someone came to the town in a gorgeous carriage, led by a man, a woman and two young people, then show them the carriage and tell them the itinerary. Look at the people who should have been said by the grandfather. Look at this, can you recognize this carriage? "

Bai Ze pointed to the carriage and said, "This is the one we assigned to Master Feng."

Feng Yuheng anxiously asked the old man: "What else can they leave?"

The old man said, "I didn't say anything else when I arrived. I just said I was going to Xiaozhou. I was a little anxious. But the old man seemed to be too late to listen to what they said, and he was really in a hurry. , From this town to another town, how can I quickly whip to dawn, thinking that it must have been driving overnight. "

The old man was only in charge of talking. He had opened an inn in the town for many years, and he had seen many people. Although he felt that these people were all extraordinary, but they did n’t think they were doing anything bad. There is not much fear.

Xuan Tianming dragged Feng Yuheng towards the carriage, and was currently resting on the wooden frame of the carriage.Feng Yuheng also looked over, and saw a small mark engraved on the wooden frame, like a stretched bow.

At this time, Ban Zou also stepped forward, and at first glance, he was shocked and explained to Feng Yuheng: "This is one of the special signs on the side of His Highness, representing ... danger."

"Dangerous?" She repeated once, guilty of aggression.

What is the danger?Ten dark guards escorted, but it was dangerous to abandon the car to change horses. This is obviously to speed up the rhythm of escape. What kind of danger is there to make the ten dark guards panic?

She cast Xuan Tianming's inquiring gaze, but saw that the other party was also holding her eyebrows tightly, with no clue at all.But Xuan Tianming still made a decision: "I can't rest, continue to chase." Then asked the shop: "I will give you three times two silver, you prepare more horses according to our head. Remember, good horses, footwork The sooner the better, you know? "

The old man looked bitter and reluctantly spread his hands: "This man, you are giving the silver ten times the old age, and the old age can't find the quick horse. Don't tell you that, you are taking the young master's gang After that, within half an hour, a group of people came again. A total of 20 people bought all the horses in this town. There are other horses, but most of them are old horses. , The rider will not work. "

Feng Yuheng exclaimed anxiously: "All the horses? Will there be twenty fast horses in this town?"

The old man shook his head: "More than that, the group of people stayed in the town for less than an hour. A total of fifty or so fast horses were collected. That is indeed the limit of the town. You have also seen that our town is too small, saying It ’s a town, but it ’s actually just a transit point between Beijing and Xiaozhou. It ’s good to have more than 50 horses. ”

Xuan Tianming snorted coldly and pinched Feng Yuheng's hand.They all understood at this time that twenty people could not use more than fifty horses at all, but they succeeded in breaking their way.After all, this is the real purpose of others.

Feng Yuheng's most fearful thing is that some people started to fight against Zi Rui and Yao. Yao's side has become what it is today. She doesn't want Zi Rui to lose any more.Otherwise, she is not only sorry for the original owner, but also for her conscience.

But what he was most afraid of was to come. Zi Rui made it clear that there was danger, and all the ten dark guards were running away. So who are the twenty or so people who chased them?

Xuan Tian Ming knew she was worried, so she immediately ordered Bai Ze: "Take down the two horses of the palace car, feed the horses, feed all the horses, then everyone rests on the spot, and continue to leave after half an hour." Said After that, he said to the old man, "Trust you to prepare more forage, and ask someone to prepare some meals. We will only stay for half an hour. The faster the meal, the better, and you will not lose money."

The store stayed with two strange people in a row within the same day. Counting them is already the third one, and the initial curiosity was almost worn out.Hearing Xuan Tianming's instructions, without a word, he immediately took Xiao Er to the shop.

Xuan Tianming also took Feng Yuheng back to the store and sat down, and the second child poured water for them. Feng Yuheng took some tea leaves from the space to give everyone water to drink, and he took two packets of instant coffee.If you want to chase people, you have to make sure you are full of energy, and you ca n’t be tired of Malé.

Xuan Tianming whispered with her to analyze the current situation: "The tail chasing Zirui doesn't know who it is yet, but it is possible to think whether it is a thousand weeks or the northern boundary. Even maybe people from other forces can't rule out Outside. We have no other way than to chase all the way down. These horses don't know how long it can last, but want to come and run for another night, insisting that tomorrow morning to the next town, there should be no problem. "

But Feng Yuheng was still worried: "What if the horses in front of the town were also bought?"

Xuan Tianming said, "That at least means that the group of people hasn't caught up with Zirui yet, we still have a chance." He patted her on the shoulder: "There must be a way before the car to the mountain."

She knew it was just a consolation. No one knew if there was a road before the car to the mountain. If the horse in the town in front of her was really gone, they are now riding these. At most, they must continue to rest for a long time. .During this break, the footwork fell again.

Feng Yuheng frowned, holding the coffee with a worried face and drinking it at once. Xuan Tianming said to her again: "The North Boundary and Qianzhou did not dare to take the initiative to send troops because they had no chance of hitting them in Dashun's heart. They are all waiting for us to take the initiative to attack, so that we can use the north ice to consume Dashun's troops. However, not raising the troops to attack does not mean that you are not playing with Yin, Hengheng, I am thinking, those ten dark Even if Wei meets the same masters, it is enough for one enemy and three. But why did he escape so embarrassed? Why did he leave the mark representing the ultimate danger in our army? "

Feng Yuheng sank in his heart and said stupefiedly: "Is it impossible ... is it a thousand shots?"

"It's possible." Xuan Tianming said: "The dark guard is the best body method, but Qianzhou Shenshe has a tracking arrow method. When the arrow method comes out, you said, who can hide it?"

Feng Yuheng wanted to say that she could, but it was not necessary to succeed in this prestige at this time. She only regretted not thinking of teaching the dark guards the way to avoid stalking arrows.If Qian Zhou really sent a god to shoot out to chase down Zi Rui, this is really a difficult task.

"You don't worry." Xuan Tianming put her hand on her shoulder and squeezed it gently. "Even if caught, Zi Rui would not be in danger of life. They should want to use the child to talk to us about the conditions, and it was half past one He's not going to kill him later. It's just ... unfortunately those brothers. "

The brothers he said were naturally the ten escorts who escorted Zirui. Xuan Tianming never used the dark servants as slaves. For him, either the dark servants or the servants like Bai Ze, it was all with him Brothers born to death, their lives are as precious as his. He ca n’t do anything with his brother ’s life to stop the arrow, and naturally he ca n’t wait for his brother to die.

But right now, there is no way to be anxious. Animals are different from people. They do n’t stop and do n’t feed. They really do n’t walk.

The restaurant ’s meals were ready soon, and the old man said to Xuan Tianming: "There are a few large pots of stewed dishes that were not sold out at the time of dinner. They are all good. It ’s too late to make anything else. Let ’s eat something. Old deceased told people to put a lot of dry food to bring to the Lord, and you will eat it when you are hungry on the road. "

Xuan Tianming nodded and motioned Bai Ze to give money.Bai Ze drew two large pieces of silver dollars to the old man, and the old man did not push it, but took it and accepted it.

After half an hour, everyone set off again.

This run was another whole night, until the day before dawn finally saw the town ahead.People found the horse dealer selling horses with great anxiety, but when asked, they heard a result that shocked them: "Several grandfathers, you came late. When Yin came, a group of people came and put I bought all the horses in my horse farm. Not only the horses here, but also the good horses raised by several large families in the town. "
