Chapter 26 The Arrow
Chapter 26 The Arrow
On the other hand, the white-clothed man was more relaxed. In terms of swordsmanship, the three of them were obviously defeated by the white-clothed man. In the end, with the strength of the man alone, the three of them lost their long swords.
Seeing the defeat of his subordinates, the young man's heart sank, he knew that Tantai Qing's head would not be taken today.
The three of them lost their swords and knew that they were invincible. Then they heard the young man whistle, and the three of them ordered Tayue to escape.And the man in white was only helping Ah Qing, and had no intention of catching up.
The young man sheathed the snake sword, shrugged his shoulders, and said to Ah Qing: "Your Highness the Second Highness is so handsome, I have seen it today."
Ah Qing said coldly: "Who issued the reward order?"
The young man waved his hand and said, "Of course we have to keep the identity of the employer a secret, or else we'll lose our professional ethics, so who would want to come here to pay me?"
Ah Qing saw that his mouth was stiff, he had changed from his coldness before, and he could feel through the black veil that he was not angry but mighty, as if he had become that fierce general with red tassels.
He pressed, "Who is it?"
Even the calm young man was stunned by the murderous intent of the yellow sand, and stayed in place unable to move.
That is the majestic momentum of a general who has suffered a lot and drank blood on the battlefield.
At this moment, the man in white smelled a dangerous aura, looked at the ancient temple tower in the distance, and saw a silver arrow coming towards Ah Qing, he said: "Be careful!"
Ah Qing raised her head and faced the cloud piercing arrow, her pupils shrank.
The man in white stood in front of him, staring at the light of the silver arrow, and came through the air.
At the moment of danger, the man calmed down, raised his eyes suddenly, and raised his sword to block the arrow, but he couldn't cut the arrow's sharpness, and the arrow hit the iron sword, making a squeak.
The man also knew that this arrow came from an unusual one, and he had to deal with it so hard that his jaw was numb due to the shock, his hands could hardly hold the sword hilt tightly, he clenched his lower lip, and took a few steps back almost to let go.
In the end, the strength was exhausted, without a single release, the arrow was deflected, deviated from the iron sword, shot into the man's shoulder, pierced into the flesh and blood, but the power still remained unchanged.
Seeing that the cloud-piercing arrow seemed about to shoot through the shoulder of the man who helped him, Ah Qing held the arrow feather without hesitation and pulled it out.
The arrow pierced half of his shoulder blade, and it was still penetrating. The pain made him pale, and he clenched his lower lip tightly so he didn't cry out.
The young man also came back to his senses, looked in the direction of the ancient pagoda, frowned and clicked his tongue, cursing something troublesome inwardly, then melted into the night and left in the next moment.
Finally, when the arrow stopped piercing, the man's body loosened and he could barely stand, Ah Qing supported him.
And the man in white said weakly: "Thank you."
Ah Qing said: "I should thank you for your help." But seeing the man's face, isn't he the one who held onto Mr. Xiao Lang that day?
The man in white was Liang Yuqing, and he didn't expect to save Lang Jun's servant, and said, "So it was you."
Ah Qing said: "Stop talking, I'll help you go to the pharmacy first."
Here, Yi Ziqian saw that Ah Qing had been looking for a handkerchief for so long and hadn't come back, so he said to Chun'er, "I'll go and see, why it took me so long to look for it."
Seeing this, Chun'er grabbed Yi Ziqian's sleeve and said, "Lang, Mr. Lang, maybe Ah Qing will be back in a while, why don't we just wait here and watch the river lanterns on the water for a while."
Seeing her tugging at his sleeve, Yi Ziqian always felt that she was a little strange today, as if she was hiding something from him. He looked into Chun'er's eyes and said, "Chun'er, what are you hiding?"
Chun'er didn't dare to look at him, lowered her head, faltered, unable to explain why.
Yi Ziqian saw her guilty look, very suspicious, frowned, pulled out his sleeves, and walked towards the alley.
Seeing him going into the alley, Chun'er wanted to stop him with a voice, but in the end she was speechless and stood there lonely.
Ning Yan also followed Mr. Lang, and when she passed by Chun'er, she chuckled and said, "Look, it's your own fault..."
Yi Ziqian and Ning Yan entered the alley, but they didn't find Ah Qing's figure. When they walked into the depths, they found that the alley was intricate and almost trapped inside.
But at this moment, Ning Yan smelled a smell of blood, felt something was wrong, frowned and walked towards an alley. Seeing that she was silent, Yi Ziqian turned around and left, asking, "Miss Ning Yan, what's wrong?"
Ning Yan looked solemn, and said: "Shh, sir, wait for me to go and have a look."
There's no way to let a woman take the lead, he was trying to make Ning Yan back, but he saw that she had already walked far away by herself.In this dark alley, Ning Yan is not afraid at all, she is a real hero among girls, which inevitably makes Yi Ziqian admire her a little more.
The more he walked in, the bloody smell became stronger, even Yi Ziqian could smell it, and Ning Yan saw bloodstains on the ground, the bright red color seemed to be left not long ago, and she moved forward along the bloodstains.
Yi Ziqian also saw the streak of blood, knew that something was wrong, frowned and secretly pulled Ning Yan behind her, and Ning Yan saw Lang Jun walking in front of her, his back was thin and weak, but he blocked her without hesitation in front of her, for fear that she would be hurt.
This little gesture made her feel that Mr. Lang is even cuter, and she couldn't help but chuckle behind him.
The bloodstain disappeared at a corner, Ning Yan sensed something was wrong, and was about to remind Yi Ziqian, but Yi Ziqian didn't know it at all, and crossed the corner.
Suddenly, a knife in his hand came towards Yi Ziqian, Ning Yan's eyes froze and she was about to strike.
"Ah Qing!" Yi Ziqian exclaimed in surprise.
Seeing that Ah Qing thought it was the pursuers of that group, but saw that it was Mr. Xiao Lang, she also relaxed, and said, "Mr. Lang."
Ning Yan smiled lightly and said, "Ah Qing, you don't know, Mr. Xiao Lang just saw you missing, he was so nervous that even that little maid was left by the river." But when the joke was over, her pupils shrank, Seeing that Ah Qing is supporting a person whose clothes are stained with blood on his shoulders, isn't it Liang Yuqing?
She pushed Ah Qing away, helped Liang Yuqing up, saw his complexion like paper, and said in a panic: "What's going on, who hurt you?"
Liang Yuqing smiled weakly and said, "I don't know..."
Ah Qing explained: "Brother was injured to save me. The person who injured him was an archer who shot through Yang with a hundred steps on the ancient pagoda."
Seeing that Liang Yuqing was injured, Ningyan's mind was already occupied by anger, her eyes were filled with hatred, she turned to Ah Qing and said, "Then what about you, just stand aside and watch him get hurt?"
Instead, Liang Yuqing shook Ning Yan's hand, shook her head and said, "Don't be like this..."
Ning Yan saw that his anger was like a gossamer, her heart felt like a knife.
Yi Ziqian saw that the face of the injured man was familiar, maybe it was the person from the small sect who was pestering him, seeing that he saved Ah Qing, he didn't care about his previous pestering, and seeing that Ning Yan was very nervous about him, the two seemed to be familiar of.
Seeing that Ning Yan was holding Liang Yuqing's hand tightly, unwilling to let go, Yi Ziqian reminded: "Send him to the hospital first, so as not to lose too much blood."
Mr. Xiao Lang's gentle voice always has the ability to soothe people's uneasiness. When Ning Yan saw Liang Yuqing was injured, she was flustered and at a loss. She was angry and resentful. My mind is also quite clear, and I nodded.
Ah Qing stabilized Liang Yuqing's shoulder, broke the shaft of the arrow, and said, "I'll carry him."
Because the arrow was shot in the shoulder, Liang Yuqing was dripping with cold sweat from the pain on Ah Qing's back, unwilling to moan, took a deep breath, and tried to straighten his body so as not to touch the wound.
The four came to the hospital, the doctor saw that the wounded had been hit by an arrow, so he made room for him, put Liang Yuqing on the wooden board, asked the boy to fetch hot water, took a piece of licorice wood, put it in Liang Yuqing's mouth, and said, "Bite, Licorice wood has the effect of numbness and pain relief, and the arrow will be pulled out soon."
Liang Yuqing nodded and bit the licorice tree.
Ningyan's sorrow was on her face, and she held Liang Yuqing's hand tightly. Seeing that she was anxious about her injury, Liang Yuqing forced her to smile, signaling her to feel relieved.
After the doctor cleaned his hands, the boy called for hot water, and the doctor said, "It's time to draw the arrows."
Liang Yuqing nodded, and the doctor began to draw the arrow.
Yi Ziqian saw that Liang Yuqing's body suddenly tensed up, his tiger eyes widened, he bit the licorice in his mouth, and even the veins on his arms burst out.
Seeing that he was stunned, Ah Qing whispered: "If you can't stand it, Mr. Lang, go to the outer room to rest."
Yi Ziqian shook his head and said, "He was injured to save you, how could I back down in battle."
The doctor just pulled it out a little, Liang Yuqing twitched in pain, almost collapsed on the ground, Ning Yan quickly supported him.
Seeing that his reaction was so intense and abnormal, the doctor stopped, also surprised, and said: "Why does it hurt like this? Could it be that this arrow is specially made."
Ning Yan panicked when she heard this, she knew that the specially made arrows, some were coated with poison, and some were swords with ridges, no matter which one they were, they would not survive a few days.
The doctor burned the Bianstone sickle red, cut open the wound, cut inside, peeled away the flesh and saw that the arrow went deep into the bone, but saw the shape of the arrow with silver hooks on both sides, said: "It doesn't look like a light-feathered arrow, it looks like a three-pronged arrow. "
When Ning Yan heard the three-pronged arrow, her face turned pale instantly, she murmured: "Impossible, impossible..."
Yi Ziqian didn't have much research on ancient cold weapons, but seeing Ning Yan's ugly face, he knew the seriousness of the situation.
Ah Qing's heart sank when he heard the three-pronged arrow. Seeing the doubts on Mr. Lang's face, he explained: "The three-pronged arrow is a special kind of arrow. There are sharp hooks on both sides of the back of the arrow, which can be firmly locked in the human body. .After a person is shot, if it goes deep into the bone, even if the arrow is taken out, it cannot be saved.”
After listening to his description, Yi Ziqian also felt palpitations. Seeing Liang Yuqing's eyes in pain, she seemed to have been paralyzed by the pain.He thought that modern weapons were cruel enough, but he didn't expect the same with cold weapons. He said, "There are such vicious arrows."
Ah Qing couldn't help but recall that on the battlefield, how many brothers died because of being shot by arrows, and the bones all over the place could be buried into a mountain.
He saw that Liang Yuqing's condition was not good, he looked very much like his loyal general and military doctor when he drew his sword, he was afraid that there would be more bad luck, and he was also worried.
The doctor looked at the injury for a while and said: "Fortunately, the arrow didn't pierce the bone, but the silver hooks on both sides can be taken out."
The three of them felt relieved after hearing his words, especially Ning Yan.
