The Book of Heaven

Chapter 328
Ma Zheng didn't dare to take the risk, what if someone in the wilderness mistreated Liu Xu and Aunt Ying?To put it in the past, knowing Liu Xu's status as a congenital warrior, Ma Zheng might be careless, but after knowing that there are monsters like martial gods and martial saints in this world, Ma Zheng dare not pat his chest to guarantee the safety of Liu Xu's mother and son. safe.

Lin Gao didn't insist on anything. After all, protecting Liu Xu's mother and son was the task given to him by Zhuge Yashan, and he didn't have to do other things. Even if Ma Zheng was severely injured, he was not responsible, but the premise was that Liu Xu's mother and son could not make mistakes. .

"Li Ping, go and have a look."

It’s not that Ma Zheng is putting on airs. Since he lives in this world, he needs to abide by the rules of this world. Li Ping is a follower, and Li Ping should do these things. Get himself into trouble.

"Master, the corpses, three of them are warriors, hey, they seem to be from the Li family, and they have waist cards."

"People from the Li family?"

Ma Zheng, who was carrying a lantern, walked around the bushes unhurriedly, and saw three bones at a glance, or only the bones wrapped in tattered clothes. identify.Fortunately, jackals and insects don't eat clothes, let alone gnaw on those wooden gold silk belts.

The big "Li" characters on the waist tags proved the identities of the three corpses, and Li Ping identified the deceased's martial arts was not weak during his lifetime through some features on the bones, and the worst one was also similar to Li Ping.

"Is there Li Hong?"

Ma Zheng didn't care how many people died in the Li family, but if Li Hong died, it would be no small matter.

"Judging from their age and clothing, these three people should be just attendants, and Li Hong is definitely not among them." Li Ping has rich experience in this field, and he doesn't care about the horror and smell of the corpse. Report to Ma Zhenghui.

Although there is no Li Hong in the corpse, Li Ping is still not very optimistic about Li Hong and others. Judging from the fact that the corpses are stacked and placed indiscriminately, and they don’t even have time to take off the badges on their bodies, Li Hong and the others should be still being killed. During the chase, otherwise, even if there are only three followers, they should at least be buried for a while, so as not to expose the corpse to the wilderness.

"a?"

Ma Zheng and Li Ping returned to the fire, but saw Liu Xu sitting by the campfire, hurriedly went up to meet him, and briefly stated what they found to Liu Xu.Liu Xu also felt strange, how could someone chase and kill Li Hong in such a good manner.

"It's hard to say. With Li Hong's temperament, the enemies should be all over the world. In Tianshui City, others may have to worry about the influence of the Li family, but after leaving Tianshui City, to be honest, I would not Will let it go."

"Just you? Didn't you let him go when you had the chance?" Liu Xu smiled at Ma Zheng with disbelief.

"That's because the patrol came. I can kill Li Hong, but Ma Zheng cannot kill Li Hong."

"That's right." As a princess of the Great Han Empire, Liu Xu has learned since she was a child that while being independent, she also has an overall view that surpasses ordinary women and even most men.It doesn't matter if Ma Zheng kills Li Hong as an individual, but as the successor of the Ma family, he can't be too casual, even if he wants to kill Li Hong, he can't leave anything behind.

"Judging from the wound, it should be a sword wound. Although the corpse was almost torn to pieces by wild beasts, there are still traces of sword energy on the bones."

"Li Ping, you should go and burn the bones."

After a moment of silence, Liu Xu gave Li Ping an order. She was a princess, and Li Ping didn't dare to disobey her, nor did she dare to ask why.

"Do you think the murderer might have something to do with me?" Ma Zheng's thoughts turned quickly, Li Ping left, and Ma Zheng approached Liu Xu and asked.

"What do you think? It's about the same. If you don't believe me, run faster, maybe you can meet someone you know!"

"Ok?"

Seeing what Liu Xu said was so certain, Ma Zheng couldn't help but use his brain, trying to find out who was secretly doing it for him.In fact, the answer to this question is not difficult to guess. It seems that there is only one person who has the ability to attack Li Hong and use a sword.

"He has a deep affection for you, but it's a pity that you are a heartless person. When others are bleeding and sweating for you, you are too busy, but you are falling into a gentle country. That girl from the Zhao family feels distressed."

"This." Ma Zheng's feeling is nothing short of a disaster. Whatever Liu Xu says will taste different. Even if Zhao Shuying really did this thing, but Zhao Shuying's temper, what she wants to do is Ma Zheng. Interferable?
It's just that Ma Zheng was also surprised, why did Zhao Shuying do this? Is she really determined to kill Li Hong?If his relationship with Ma Zheng was put aside, could there be conflicts between the Zhao family and the Li family?

Of course, Ma Zheng would not be so self-absorbed that he admitted that Zhao Shuying attacked Li Hong to vent his anger on him. No matter how crazy this woman is Zhao Shuying, she would not be so crazy. Besides, the relationship between the two of them does not seem to be too deep. There are other reasons.

"Catch up and have a look." After Liu Xu dropped these words, he returned to the carriage to rest.

In the early morning of the next day, Ma Zheng and the others did not waste time, packed up and hurried on the road. According to Liu Xu, there might be a few more heads to pick up on the road.

But there are always accidents in the world, at least until the noon break, Ma Zheng didn't find any accidents.

"Li Ping, see if Li Hong and the others have escaped."

"I don't think so." Liu Xu replied before Li Ping: "If the girl really lost her, shouldn't she come to you most likely? Since she hasn't appeared yet, she must be He went after Li Hong."

It has to be said that this woman Liu Xu's intelligence is indeed superior, and at the same time she came to this judgment, Li Hong and the others were running for their lives!

The official road is certainly the safest and quickest way, but it is also the easiest way to expose the target. Since he was attacked by someone yesterday afternoon and lost three of his men, the last innate guard beside Li Hong knew that he could not resist the coming person.Strictly speaking, being a guard should not be afraid of death, but no one wants to die for no reason. Besides, even if he can die, Li Hong cannot die, so it is more important to escape than face.

In order not to let the three subordinates sacrifice in vain, Li Hong and his party left the official road at the suggestion of the innate guard and went deep into the jungle. When the group left, he naturally protected Li Hong and walked towards Tianshui City, but he made an excuse. Because of this, he narrowly escaped the pursuit, and there was no bait in the other two directions. People survived.

"Who is it? Who is chasing and killing us? When I return to Tianshui City, I must tell my father and let him send someone to vent our anger on our behalf!"

Li Hong, who had been running all night and morning, leaned against the big tree trunk to breathe, he could find time to curse, but he suffered from the innate guard, who couldn't help making Li Hong keep his voice down.

Perhaps they were far enough away from the killer, but it was also possible that the killer had caught up after realizing that the other two directions were bait.
