Chapter 626: Escape plan (2)

Also, how did the monsters and barbarians know in advance and set up an ambush?
These clues were messy and clueless, giving him a headache.
The argument between Chu Xianglong and the three officials rang in his ears. Xu Qi ‘an pinched the space between his eyebrows and sank into his own thoughts.
actually, I have an even simpler method. That is to lure the Masters of the Barbarian and demon race to us and get information from them.
The more Xu Qi ‘an thought about it, the more he felt that this plan was feasible. First of all, he had the invincible Vajra, who was on par with a rank-4, or even better. If he fought a rank-4 alone, even if he could not win, it would be difficult for the other party to kill him.
After all, martial artists would not attack the primordial spirit. If it was a fourth-grade Taoist, Xu Qi ‘an would have turned and left without a word. After all, his primordial spirit was still at the sixth grade.
Even if his primordial spirit was stronger than most level six, it was impossible for him to be a match for a level four Taoist expert.
Secondly, he had the magic book that the scholarly faction had given him. In the game, this would be an extremely rare skill scroll.
Although my level is low, I know how to spend money.
In the struggle between heaven and man, it was because of the effects of the scholarly magic book that he made up for the weakness of his primordial spirit, and thus defeated li Miaozhen and Chu Yuanyou.
Finally, he still had monk Shen Shu in his body, which was his biggest source of confidence.
However. monk Shen Shuts existence could not be exposed. Even if he was summoned, it had to be in the situation where there were no teammates, otherwise. he could only be killed … If it was just to save the princess Consort, I wouldn’t have to risk my life like this … Xu Qi ‘an’s index finger and thumb rubbed his chin.
Saving the princess Consort was just in passing. His purpose was to get information.
“The North is North vanquishing Prince’s territory. If we go there directly, we’ll be under his surveillance. All his actions were under the other party’s eyes.
“In this case, I either don’t investigate the case, or I kowtow to the North-guarding King.”
For a logical expert in reasoning, it was impossible for him to fall into such a passive situation.
He had to get more clues and intelligence before he reached the North. Only then could he make a plan and start an investigation.
At this moment, the quarrels ended.
Chu Xianglong spread out a map on the ground and said, “”Has yang Jinluo been followed along the way?
Yang Yan shook his head.
As a peak rank-4, there were not many people who could follow him. The intuition of a martial artist was not just for show.
Chu Xianglong heaved a sigh of relief and nodded, “”Very good, then we still have a chance. Under such circumstances, he could not turn back. We should arrive at Jiang state capital as soon as possible and seek help from the Jiang State Governor and the Jiang state capital’s commander. Ask them to mobilize the military garrison for defense.”
Everyone nodded slowly.
Jiang state capital was the capital of a province. It didn’t lack troops or experts. They would be safe once they entered the city. If the fourth-grade barbarians and demons dared to charge into the city, they would be doomed to die.
as long as we can successfully reach the Jiang Prefecture’s main city, we can ask for help from the Imperial court or directly deploy the Jiang Prefecture’s Army to escort the princess to the North. Said min Xianglong. “That’s reasonable.” The judge of the court of judicial review slowly nodded.
so next, we have to plan the route. Chu Xianglong pointed at the map,
“The closest route to Jiang Prefecture is the official road we are taking now. We can reach there in two days. But this was also the most dangerous path. That’s why we have to take a detour.”
Constable Chen shook his head and retorted, ” it’s dangerous to take a detour. We have too many people. There’s also Zi Zhong and the women. We can’t go fast. And the other party is a master who doesn’t travel much. Sooner or later, they will be locked on and caught up.”
Chu Xianglong laughed,”so, we’ll have to abandon the carriages, horses, and part of Zichong.” We can’t take the main road and fight them by guerilla means. ”
It had to be said that this was a very smart decision.
Although the other party was an expert, it was impossible for them to sneak into the enemy’s abdomen to set up an ambush with an Army. This would result in a lack of manpower, making it impossible to carry out a large-scale search.
At this moment, Chu Xianglong finally showed the qualities of an experienced general.
In a war, this kind of escape was not uncommon.
Everyone looked at Xu Qi ‘an.
He still had some skills. To be able to reach the position of Deputy general of the North vanquishing Prince, he couldn’t be. mediocre person … Xu Qi ‘an also felt that this arrangement was the best choice at the moment.
“I’m fine with that.” He said indifferently.
Chu Xianglong smiled smugly and looked at host Xu with provocation and contempt, as if to tell him, ‘
This brat is still too young, learn from him.
Immediately, the officials walked out of their tents, gathered their troops, and gave orders to prepare to March through the night.
Chu Xianglong woke up the maidservants and stopped beside the princess’s carriage. He bowed and said, “”Princess Consort, something has happened.” A few seconds later, the woman’s calm voice came from the carriage. ‘What’s the matter?”
the ship was ambushed on the water path and has sunk, ” Chu Xianglong said softly. we are still in danger. The enemy might come after us.
The maidservants who were rubbing their eyes and leaving the carriage heard this and exclaimed.
The old Auntie who was mixed in with the maidservants was so scared that she shrank her head back, and panic flashed in her eyes.
“I’ve decided to take the mountain path to avoid pursuit. Please make preparations and leave tonight,” Chu Xianglong continued.
The old lady hurriedly returned to the carriage and packed her luggage and dry food. Her desire to survive was terrifying.
The maidservants then reacted and began to get busy.
The envoy Group abandoned some of Zi Zhong’s troops and carried dry food and clean water. They left the main road, crossed the fields, Plains, and crossed the mountains and began their arduous journey.
Yang Yan led the team to the front, while Xu Qi ‘an led the Imperial Army to the back.
At dawn, the team took a short break at the foot of the mountain to replenish their food and recover their strength.
Xu Qi ‘an chewed on the tasteless shaobing and drank a mouthful of water. He was glad that he had not brought the little mare with him, or he would have lost his beloved Mount.
The sound of soft footsteps came closer. When she turned around, she saw a tired-looking old lady.
She stood not far away and hesitated. When she saw Xu Qi ‘an looking at her, she gritted her teeth and strode over. She sat down beside Xu Qi’ an and said in a low voice, ‘
“Can we reach the Northern Territory without a hitch?”
you’re a maidservant of the Prince’s Mansion, ” Xu Qi ‘an replied. you should ask Chu Xianglong this question.
I don’t trust him … She held the kettle and looked worriedly at the crowd. She said softly, “”l’m a little scared.”
She was very scared, so she subconsciously came to find Xu Qi ‘an. Perhaps in her heart, in this diplomatic mission, the one who really gave her a sense of security was not the gong, Yang Yan, nor the North vanquishing Prince, who had pledged his loyalty to Chu Xianglong.
Instead, it was the young man who had been teasing her all the way.lt was the silver Gong that shocked the world in the battle of magical powers;lt was the man who had subdued the heavens and man with two hands above the Weishui River.
“Are you afraid of death?” Xu Qi ‘an asked without any expression.
She nodded and then shook her head.
“There’s no problem with Chu Xianglong’s plan. We’re lucky that we’ll be able to reach Jiang Prefecture safely. You’ll be safe once you’re in Jiang Prefecture. Besides, you’re just a little maidservant. What’s there to be afraid of? If you see that the situation is not good, just run away. Why would a rank four expert think about you?”
Xu Qi ‘an laughed at her cowardice.
“I’m afraid I won’t be able to make it to Jiang Prefecture.” She sighed.
She had stayed up all night to hurry on the road, and after only four hours, her legs were already weak and she couldn’t move.
“I’ll carry you?” Xu Qi ‘an suggested.
She shook her head.
“If, if the pursuers stop us, you …” “Will the night watchmen protect the princess Consort?” she changed her words.
When she asked this question, her eyes flickered with a hopeful light, like stars in the sky.
It was as if as long as Xu Qi ‘an gave a positive answer, she would feel at ease.
of course not, ” Xu Qi ‘an refused.
“Our mission is to investigate the case, not to protect the princess Consort. The life and death of the princess Consort has nothing to do with us. If the enemy is too powerful, we can escape on our own. In any case, their target is the princess Consort.”
So it’s like this … The light in her eyes dimmed. She stood up silently and returned to her seat, hugging her knees.
She was in the crowd, but she didn’t fit in with the people around her. She looked lonely and pitiful.
15 minutes later, Chu Xianglong stood up and shouted, “”Let’s continue.”
The well-trained Imperial Army soldiers and guards silently stood up, carried their bags, picked up their weapons, and got ready to go.
Xu Qi ‘an’s hair stood on end. The next moment, an image appeared in his mind. A huge rock was falling from the forest above him.
Almost at the same time, Yang Yan, who was in front, suddenly raised his head and stared at the mountain behind him with burning eyes.
A huge rock that was two Zhang tall was thrown down from the mountain towards the core of the team.
The other martial artists in the diplomatic corps were a beat slower. They only sensed it when the Boulder was thrown. As for the ordinary soldiers and maidservants, they still hadn’t reacted.
