On the other side, Princess Anxi's face was as pale as paper, her eyes were filled with despair and pain.

She walked out of the cave with stuttering steps, and each step seemed to weigh a thousand pounds.

"Why is this happening..." she murmured to herself, her voice so weak that it seemed to float in the wind at any time.

The evil behavior of the coachman suffered great trauma to her heart, and her face no longer had the smile of the past.

Princess Anxi raised her head and looked into the distance, her eyes were confused and helpless.

"What should I do..." Her lips trembled slightly, tears rolling in her eyes.

Her heart was full of contradictions and entanglements, and she didn't know how to move forward in her future.

Princess Anxi took a deep breath, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and bit her lip, as if she was encouraging herself.

"I can't be knocked down like this...I want to be strong." There was a hint of firmness in her voice.

Then, she slowly took steps and walked forward, her back seemed extremely lonely and desolate.

The princess walked into the village with her eyes exhausted and firm. She saw a place where recruitment notices were posted, which reads looking for needleworkers.

She walked forward and asked with a trembling voice: "May I ask, are you recruiting sewing workers here?"

The recruiting woman looked at her, a hint of doubt flashed in her eyes, but she still replied: "Yes, can you do needlework?"

The princess nodded quickly, with a look of expectation on her face and said, "I can do it, can I try it?"

The woman looked her up and down, then nodded and said, "Okay, come with me."

The princess followed the woman to a small courtyard where some needles and fabrics were placed.

The woman pointed to these things and said, "You try to do something simple first."

The princess nodded, looked at the needlework and fabric in her hands with a focused look, and began to do her work seriously.

On the other side, Zhao Yun's face was full of fatigue and disappointment. His eyes were originally bright, but now they became dull, as if they had lost the glory of life.

A soldier walked up and whispered: "General, we have indeed searched all around, but there are still no traces of Chen Shou and his son. Maybe... they are no longer here. Otherwise, let's go back first."

Zhao Yun raised his head slightly, looked at the soldiers, and said in a low voice: "Look for it again, you can't just give up like this. They are the people we must find."

The soldiers looked at each other, with a look of embarrassment on their faces.

Another soldier said: "General, we have been searching for a long time, but we really haven't found any clues about them. If we continue, I'm afraid everyone's physical strength will not be able to hold on..."

Zhao Yun bit his lip, was silent for a moment, and finally nodded slowly and said, "Okay, since that's the case, let's go back first. But this does not mean that we have given up on our search, we are just temporarily adjusting our strategy."

During this process, Zhao Yun's expression was tired and firm, while the soldiers seemed a little helpless and worried.

"General, don't be too sad. Maybe Chen Shou and his son will be safe and sound. They will meet them in the future." A soldier couldn't help but speak.

Zhao Yun stopped, shook his head slightly and said, "I can't let them have something to do. They are crucial to us." There was a hint of helplessness in his voice.

Another soldier said, "General, we will continue to look for their whereabouts. Don't worry."

Zhao Yun glanced at the soldiers, with a hint of gratitude on his face: "Thank you. But we also need to make long-term plans and not act blindly."

Zhao Yun rode a horse with a decadent look on his face, his eyes wandering, as if he had lost his former spirit.

The group behind him were also listless and had a low morale.

When they came to the bridge, several bandits suddenly appeared and blocked their way.

"I opened this road, I planted this tree. If you want to pass by now, leave it to buy wealth!" One of the bandits shouted loudly, with a greedy smile on his face.

Zhao Yun raised his head suddenly, a hint of anger flashed in his eyes, and he cursed angrily: "You little thieves, dare to block my way!" His voice was full of majesty.

The bandits were startled by Zhao Yun's aura, but they still plucked their courage and said, "Don't be arrogant. We are many people and powerful. You are not our opponents!"

Zhao Yun sneered, "Just you guys? It's not enough for me to get stuck in my teeth!" His face was full of disdain.

In this process, Zhao Yun's expression gradually became majestic and angry from decadence, while the bandits showed greed and timid expressions.

At this time, Zhao Yun's companions also held the weapons in their hands tightly and glared.

Seeing this, the bandits in the leader felt a little timid, but they still gritted their teeth and shouted: "Brothers, don't be fooled by him, get on!" The bandits rushed up and waved the rough weapons in their hands.

Zhao Yun shouted loudly, like a thunder thunder, taking the lead in facing the bandits.

The spear in his hand danced, and the cold light flashed at the tip of the spear, and instantly he overturned the two bandits who were rushing in front.

Seeing this, the other bandits suddenly stopped attacking, and the greed in their eyes was replaced by fear.

However, there was no way out at this time, so they could only continue to attack with the bullet.

Zhao Yun was agile and freely traveling among the bandits. Every time he shot out his gun, he had a sharp aura, and the bandits could not get close to him at all.

Soon, the ground was covered with wounded bandits. The remaining bandits no longer dared to step forward, and they threw away their armor and fled in scattered.

Zhao Yun looked at their backs as they fled in a panic and snorted coldly: "The crowd!" His face was full of confidence and majesty of victory.

Zhao Yun's companions cheered and praised his bravery.

"General Zhao, if it weren't for you today, we might not be able to get out of here." One of them said.

Zhao Yun put away his spear, his expression calmed down, and said, "If you encounter such a evil thief on the road, you should take action to punish him, and there is no need to say much."

Everyone continued to move forward, but after these twists and turns, everyone became more vigilant.

Not long after walking, the sky gradually darkened, and there were gloomy winds coming from the woods in the distance.

"This place has a weird look, please be careful." Zhao Yun reminded.

Before he finished speaking, a group of black shadows suddenly emerged from the woods, holding sharp blades and pounced towards them.

Zhao Yun frowned and held the spear tightly again.

"Who is here? How dare you provoke again!"

The black shadow didn't answer, but just rushed forward and attacked.

Zhao Yun flashed, facing the shadow, and instantly fought with them.

With the faint moonlight, it can be seen that these black shadows are more agile and more fierce than the previous bandits.

Zhao Yun responded calmly, his gun was like a dragon, and every strike contained powerful power.

However, there are many black shadows and their cooperation is tacit, so it is difficult for Zhao Yun to win quickly.

Others also joined the battle and fought with the shadows.

The sound of shouting and the sound of weapons colliding seemed particularly harsh on this quiet night.

After a fierce battle, Zhao Yun finally found the flaws of the black shadows. He exerted force suddenly, swept across the spear, and repelled the several black shadows besieging him.

"Everyone concentrates their strength and defeats one by one!" Zhao Yun shouted loudly.

Under his command, everyone gradually stabilized their positions and began to fight back.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the black shadows began to retreat.

In the end, with the joint efforts of Zhao Yun and his companions, the shadows fled in panic.

"It is not suitable to stay here for a long time, let's leave quickly." Zhao Yun said.

Everyone did not dare to stop, speeded up and disappeared into the night.

However, after a while, Zhao Yun felt dizzy and weak in all his limbs, and fell straight down from his horse. The soldiers were shocked and surrounded them one after another.

"General! What's wrong with you?" A soldier's face was full of panic and his voice was trembling.

Zhao Yun forced himself to raise his head, his face pale as paper, and beads of sweat as big as beans rolled down his forehead.

"I don't know either, I just suddenly felt weak." He said weakly.

At this moment, many soldiers around him began to stagnate and were exhausted.

Zhao Yun's eyes narrowed, and he understood something in an instant, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.

"Damn it! These little thieves are not really trying to fight us head-on, but are poisoning us!" Zhao Yun gritted his teeth and shouted angrily.

"What? What should I do?" The soldiers looked at each other, their faces full of fear and despair.

"Don't panic!" Zhao Yun tried hard to calm himself down, "Everyone should rest on the spot to see if they can find a way to detoxify."

An older soldier frowned and said worriedly: "General, this poison is coming in a fierce manner. If the antidote is not found as soon as possible, I am afraid."

Zhao Yun clenched his fists and looked forward with a firm look, "Even if you die, you can't let the thief succeed!"

But Zhao Yun quickly couldn't hold on and fainted, and the other soldiers fell one after another, and the scene was silent and deep.

I don’t know how long it took, a slight sound of footsteps came from far and near.

The footsteps were neither too fast nor too slow, and each step seemed to have some unknown meaning.

A figure gradually appeared in front of the fallen crowd, covering his face, revealing only a pair of eyes that were sly and proud.

"Hmph, the famous Zhao Yun is just like that." His voice was low and cold, with a strong sense of mockery.

He squatted down and reached out to pat Zhao Yun's face, "I didn't expect that it would be so easy."

At this moment, Zhao Yun, who was originally unconscious, moved his fingers slightly. The masked man was startled and stood up suddenly, staring at Zhao Yun vigilantly.

After a while, he relaxed again when he saw that Zhao Yun had no other movement.
