Chapter 55 The Crisis Is Coming

Chapter 55 The Crisis Is Coming
It was still dark, and the soldiers defending the city were drowsy holding the spears in their hands. Suddenly, there was a sound of horseshoes approaching from far and near. The soldiers immediately stood up straight and looked forward.

The sound of horseshoes was getting closer, and finally several people on horseback stopped in front of the closed city gate, and the person walking in the front took out a token from his body and handed it to the leading soldier.

Although it was very dark, there were torches at the gate of the city. With the faint light, the leading soldier finally saw clearly the token held in front of him, which was engraved with a unicorn pattern.

"Open the door!" The condensed voice sounded, it was clearly in June, but the leading soldier still couldn't help shivering, he quickly ordered the soldiers under him to open the city gate, and then watched a few horses come out The city gate gradually recedes.

Wiping the sweat off his forehead, the leading soldier came back to his senses. He patted his chest to calm down his undecided emotions, and then ordered someone to close the city gate again.

The sky gradually brightened, and the people on the horseback gradually revealed their appearances. The leader was a man in black brocade, with the pattern of a flying unicorn looming, and the edges of the clothes were locked with gold threads. You can see that the clothes are expensive.

Her jet-black hair was tied up with a jade crown, revealing her smooth forehead, her sword-like eyebrows were flying high, full of heroism, her dark eyes were bottomless, and her thin lips were slightly pursed under her handsome nose.

The scenery on both sides of the road retreated rapidly. Yunlin sat on the horse, thinking about the emperor's orders to him last night in his mind, he frowned subconsciously, clamped his legs on the horse's belly, and sped up the speed.

Suqin was sitting on the carriage, yawning constantly. She didn't expect her body to have a bed problem. Although she was extremely sleepy last night, after lying down, she couldn't fall asleep no matter what, and she didn't know how to toss and turn After a long time, she finally fell asleep in a daze, but she didn't want to be woken up by the maids.

Seeing the black shadow under Su Qin's eyes, Wei Jiao asked with concern, "What's the matter? Didn't you sleep well last night? Are you not used to sleeping outside?"

She didn't know whether Su Qin had heard what Wei Jiao was saying, she nodded in a daze, leaned her head against the wall of the carriage, and lit it up and down.

Seeing Su Qin like this, Wei Jiao reached out and pulled Su Qin's body towards her, letting her head rest on her shoulder so that she could sleep more comfortably.

"Hurry up and drive slowly." Lowering her voice, Wei Jiao gave an order and said nothing more.

Perhaps it was because of being extremely sleepy, even if the carriage was slightly bumpy, Su Qin who was leaning on Wei Jiao's shoulder slept soundly. Wei Jiao curled up her lips helplessly when she heard Su Qin's steady breathing.

Suddenly, the carriage shook violently, and Su Qin, who was leaning on Wei Jiao's shoulder, suddenly fell forward, so frightened that Wei Jiao quickly reached out to grab her, which prevented Su Qin from getting out of the carriage.

"What's going on?" Suqin opened her eyes, and her voice was displeased because she was woken up by the shaking.

"My two ladies, there are stones blocking the way ahead." The groom's voice came, Wei Jiao got up and lifted the curtain, and looked forward. Sure enough, not far from the carriage, a pile of rubble lay on the ground. Placed in the middle of the road, every stone is not small.

After all this tossing, Su Qin finally came to her senses. Looking at the stones blocking the road ahead, she felt a bad premonition in her heart.

Last night, Su Qin and the others didn't find an inn where they could rest, so they spent the night in the woods.

Being outside is better than being at home, so everyone woke up very early and continued on their way. Although they were taking the official road, they didn't meet many pedestrians along the way. Now that the sky was bright, there was suddenly gravel blocking the way, Su Qin couldn't help thinking of the routines used by those robbers in the TV series he watched in his previous life.

Thinking of this, Su Qin's complexion became ugly.

"Move the stone away." After ordering, Wei Jiao turned to look at Su Qin. Seeing that Su Qin's expression was a little strange, she asked worriedly, "What's the matter? But what's wrong?"

"Cousin, I always feel uneasy." Frowning, Su Qin felt that the uneasiness in her heart was getting stronger and stronger.

"Uneasy?" Wei Jiao asked with some doubts. Wei Jiao obviously didn't understand Su Qin's meaning, and Su Qin didn't say a word, and opened the curtain to look around.

Although it is said that this is an official road, the area we are walking now is really a bit desolate. Thinking of the stones blocking the road ahead, Su Qin felt that if there were any bandits at this time, I am afraid they would want to drive away in a carriage Will not work.

"Qin'er, are you okay?" Seeing Su Qin's serious face, Wei Jiao reached out and touched her forehead, thinking she was not feeling well.

"It's okay." Although she was worried, Su Qin didn't tell Wei Jiao what was in her heart. After all, it was just her own thoughts.

Hearing what Su Qin said, although Wei Jiao was still a little worried, she didn't continue to ask questions. After all, the most important thing in front of her was to get rid of the pile of stones and continue on her way.

Because the two girls were traveling far away, Su Yunhai arranged for several strong guards, plus the people Wei Jiao brought with him when he came, so the gravel on the road was quickly cleaned up.

The carriage continued to move forward, and Suqin finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that he was thinking too much. He brought so many robbers?
"What's wrong with you just now? Your face is so bad?" Seeing that Su Qin's face gradually improved, Wei Jiao asked her why she changed her face just now.

"It's nothing, it's just my random thoughts. It's all right." A little embarrassed, Su Qin changed the subject with a smile, and he couldn't say that he was poisoned by the TV series he had watched in his previous life. He felt that if there were stones on the road, there might be robbers Bar?

Seeing that Su Qin didn't say anything, Wei Jiao shook his head helplessly, but didn't continue to ask, which made Su Qin heave a sigh of relief.

After driving for about half an hour, the carriage stopped again. The reason this time was the same as before, because there was something blocking the way on the road ahead, but it was no longer a large stone, but a tree. A big tree that needs two children to hug it.

"What's the matter on the official road? How could it be a stone and a tree?" Wei Jiao frowned, looking at the tree in front of him. Although he was helpless, the dozen or so guards had no choice but to get on the road. Together, they moved the big tree to the side of the road.

Sitting in the carriage, Su Qin watched the guards in front of him working hard with all their strength, and the uneasiness in his heart surged out again.

This time, it took more than half an hour before the big tree was finally removed, but this time, what appeared in front of everyone was no longer an official road that could be marched on, but a group of people holding knives with their faces covered. the men in black...
