Chapter 20 Ambush on the road
Ning Youbei knew about the important weapon used by Qu Chu. He couldn't help but think: No matter how Qu Chu was, it was obvious how strict the military was.
"Achu, can you show me your knife?"
Qu Chu stared at Ning Youbei coldly, as if thinking about what he was thinking about?
Just when Ning Youbei thought Qu Chu would not agree, Qu Chu drew out the knife.
The cold air rushed towards Ning Youbei.
The faint sword reflected Ning Youbei's face was a little blurred. He reached out and touched the knife gently, and a cold touch came.
"Is your sword a black iron?"
Ning Youbei's question was a little hesitant and unsure.
Qu Chu did not answer him.
Ning Youbei touched the blade a few times with love and brushed it a few times before he reluctantly let go of his hand.
When Ning Youbei took away his hand, Qu Chu put the knife into the sheath with a "swish".
Although Qu Chu did not answer, Ning Youbei had already confirmed that Qu Chu's knife was Xuan Tie, and he was secretly surprised.
This mysterious iron is the most treasure in the world, and it is impossible to get one or two taels. If you only add half a tael to a certain amount of money to ordinary swords, spears, swords and halberds, all iron will become a powerful weapon.
Even he only had a black iron dagger, but he tried every means to get it. He regarded it as a treasure. And this black iron knife could create more than a dozen daggers.
Where did Qu Chu get this black iron sword? I have never heard of the Qu family having such a treasure before.
...
With the joining of Lingxiao Pavilion, the team became lively.
Lingxiao Pavilion was originally a sect in the martial arts world, with no rules, and the people who came were all young people in their twenties, which was the time to be lively.
As a result, all kinds of laughter and striking sounds came from time to time.
Ning Youbei didn't stop them, and sometimes even joined their topics to talk to them. His behavior further encouraged the atmosphere of joy.
Qu Chu is not used to such bustle and noisy.
Although the army is sometimes more lively, that kind of lively is completely different from the current situation. The army is absolutely quiet and disciplined when marching.
Qu Chu felt that they were noisy, but he did not dare to leave Ning Youbei's side, so his cold face became even colder.
Qu Chu's reaction made Dongfang Ying more convinced that Qu Chu liked the King of Chu. The reason why she was unhappy was because of jealousy. The King of Chu was jealous of talking to her.
If the soldiers under Qu Chu knew Dongfang Ying’s thoughts, they would definitely sneer.
The general is the devil king, and no one can like it, especially how could she like a young man like the King of Chu? Not to mention jealousy.
Indeed, Qu Chu never knew what jealousy was.
In her heart, if you want something, you will fight for it and grab it. Strength is the king!
As for the relationship between men and women, maybe she had longed for her with Bingyu before she was 15 years old, but since she went to the battlefield, she has been a warrior and a general.
There is only war and compatriots in my heart.
...
Now, Dongfang Ying can also say a few words to Ning Youbei.
Perhaps because of Lingxiao Pavilion's help, although Ning Youbei is not enthusiastic to Dongfang Ying, he is also gentle and polite.
Ning Youbei's polite attitude completely changed in Dongfang Ying's heart. In her opinion, this was the manifestation of the King of Chu's "like" her.
...
I walked for another seven or eight days on the road. On this day, I arrived at a dense forest.
Qu Chu made a gesture and the team stopped.
"Dabao, please take a few people to explore the way, be careful."
He Dabao took the order and left.
Ning Youbei poked his head out of the carriage window, "Achu, what's wrong?"
"I'm worried that someone will set up an ambush in the dense forest ahead and let General He go to investigate."
"Are you too careful?" Ning Youbei Dao: "Now it's still far from the western tribe, so there's no danger, right?"
Qu Chu said coldly: "Be careful!"
After a stick of incense, He Dabao came back.
"General, the dense forest ahead is very wide, and it takes several hours to get out. There is no movement where I explore, but I think you should be careful."
“Is there any other way?”
"There is another road, but it is equally dangerous to pass a valley, and it is one day more away than this road."
Qu Chu thought for a while and ordered He Dabao: "Send the order and be on guard. You will be by the King of Chu to protect him later."
Although He Dabao's martial arts were not particularly good, Qu Chu only believed in him at the critical moment.
When He Dabao went to convey the order, Qu Chu turned to Ning Youbei and said, "No matter what happens later, you will follow me."
Ning Youbei was not afraid at all. He smiled at Qu Chu, "With Ah Chu here, I am confident that no one can hurt me."
...
Because of Qu Chu's orders, the atmosphere of the entire team finally became tense. The people in Lingxiao Pavilion also stopped laughing and looked serious.
This dense forest is indeed wide, with only one road inside. This road can only pass by one carriage. Qu Chu can't even ride a horse and want to protect the carriage.
Qu Chu thought for a moment and said to Ning Youbei: "Sit down and I'll come right away."
If Ning Youbei was still allowed to sit in the carriage, if someone shot a crossbow, she would not have time to save her.
Ning Youbei got out of the carriage, and Qu Chu reached out and pulled him to the horse.
"Achu, shouldn't I sit behind you? Why did you sit in front of you?"
"Shut up!"
After the drink stopped Ning Youbei, Qu Chu whistled, and all the soldiers accelerated.
Qu Chu also pulled the reins of the horse, and the horse ran quickly. He Dabao and several people protected Qu Chu and Ning Youbei.
After about a stick of incense, crossbow arrows scattered out of the dense forest.
“There is an ambush.”
Qu Chu's expression did not change much. She drew out the black iron sword and blocked the crossbow arrows one by one.
The crossbow arrows broke into two pieces after touching the black iron sword.
After a rain of arrows, dozens of people jumped out of the dense forest, all dressed in black and masked, with only two eyes exposed.
Their goal is very clear, it is for Ning Youbei.
All the masters came, and everyone's skills were not inferior to those of Lingxiao Pavilion.
This is the first time Ning Youbei saw Qu Chu killing the enemy, which is different from the battle between her and Dongfang Yu.
When fighting against Dongfang Yu, Qu Chu was brave, but her whole body was peaceful. But at this time, her momentum surged, and her whole body was full of murderous aura, like a peerless magic weapon blade, which would be destroyed as if it touched her.
The facts are almost the same.
Just like Qu Chu, who had a killing weapon, had a real magic weapon, sharp blade, and black iron sword, no one who fought with her would be able to make a good choice.
Not only did the weapons be cut off, but they were also injured.
Of course, Qu Chu also suffered several injuries.
She is not a god, and many other people besiege her, and her martial arts are not weak, especially the two of them are not much different from those of Dongfang Yu.
