In the end, Xia Youan solved his personal problem by casually taking shelter on the vast yellow land.

Life always begins with various firsts.

After resting for half an hour, the team got ready and set off towards Cuifeng Valley.

"Everyone in the front, stay alert, especially when passing through the canyon of Cuifeng Valley. You must not let your guard down!" Du You shouted loudly to the vanguard.

There's a narrow section of road in the middle of Cuifeng Valley, perfect for an ambush. Stone throwing, arrows, or fire are all good ambush methods. The mountain walls here are perpendicular, as if split by a sword, and with no vegetation, they're prone to landslides.

At this point, Du You suddenly stopped.

"Your Highness, it's too quiet here!" After Qingying understood the situation, she opened the car door and reported to Chu Moyuan.

"Notify everyone to be on alert! Divide into groups of 100 and pass through in batches. Those who pass through first should be prepared to provide support!" Chu Moyuan's expression was stern.

The first group of people passed quickly. After Du You saw the second team arrive safely on the other side, he waved to signal the second team to go over.

The assassin lying in ambush on the mountaintop, ready to throw stones, was stunned. "Boss, they're not playing by the rules. When are we supposed to throw the stones?"

Those who are called the boss also have a headache. This trick has always worked in the past.

The King of Chu is indeed not simple!

But you can't lose the pieces in front of you.

"Shut up, have you forgotten our mission? Just leave King Chu and that woman behind, the others are just incidental!"

It seemed that only the last group of King Chu's entourage was left.

"Be prepared and concentrate your forces on attacking the King of Chu's carriage! We must kill the King of Chu here!" the boss said fiercely.

What made them dumbfounded was that just when they thought that the last group Chu Moyuan was in was about to pass, Chu Moyuan ordered the last hundred people to pass first?

He took Xia Youan across last.

Assassins: “…”

"Boss, what should I do?"

"Calm down, with only the King of Chu and that woman left, the target is clearer!"

After everyone passed, Xia Youan told Chu Moyuan, "Stay close to the foot of the mountain. Everything that comes down from above will fall in a parabolic trajectory. We just need to use wooden planks to protect our heads. The foot of the mountain is the safest!"

Chu Moyuan understood as soon as he heard it.

"Smart! You go inside later. Don't be afraid! If there is real danger, I will fly you over!"

Seeing that Chu Moyuan and Xia Youan had entered their attack range, the assassins received the boss's signal and quickly pushed the stone down.

Just as Xia Youan said, the stones all fell down in a certain arc.

Even if some of them roll back to the foot of the mountain after falling, they will still be at a certain angle, and the force will be much weakened.

Chu Moyuan waved his hand and the stone shattered!

The two of them passed through Cuifeng Valley calmly.

Then, the group accelerated towards Luoshui City!

"Boss, what should we do? Chase them!"

"Chase!" said the man called the boss gritting his teeth.

But as soon as they came down from the top of Cuifeng Valley, they were intercepted by the secret guards!

The assassins never expected the King of Chu to be so cunning.

They didn't even think about it. How could Chu Moyuan only bring these few people on this trip?

After passing Cuifeng Valley and advancing another 10 kilometers, it was already : in the evening. Du You arranged for the soldiers to find a sheltered place to spend the night.

The soldiers had been walking for several days, sleeping in the open air and eating dry food with cold water every day.

Tonight, Chu Moyuan asked them to cook and have a good meal.

When Du You came to bring them food, he told Chu Moyuan that the person they rescued today had woken up.

After Chu Moyuan finished his meal with Xia Youan, he asked Qingying to take good care of her before following Du You to question her.

After finishing his meal, Du Qianhao was lying on the truck transporting supplies with his eyes closed to rest.

When he felt someone approaching, he opened his eyes and saw Du You respectfully leading a noble young man towards him. He guessed that this must be his savior.

Du Qianhao endured the severe pain and sat up with difficulty. He clasped his hands together and bowed, "I am Du Qianhao. Thank you for saving my life!"

Chu Moyuan didn't rush to speak, but looked at the other person carefully.

Du Qianhao looked to be about twenty years old, and his clothes were torn by swords and knives.

Because of excessive bleeding, his lips were a little pale and he looked frail, but there was a sense of righteousness between his brows.

"Tell me, what happened?" Chu Moyuan asked after examining Du Qianhao.

"I have fled from the North. As for my identity and the reason for my escape, I cannot tell you at this time.

I'm afraid that if the pursuers discover that you saved me, they will bring disaster upon you." Du Qianhao spoke calmly, his eyes clear.

"In that case, let's say goodbye! You and I are on different paths." Chu Moyuan didn't want to say more and prepared to turn around and leave.

Du Qianhao didn't expect that his benefactor would let him go so late. He didn't know what to do for a moment. He looked up at Du You with a helpless expression.

"Look, I'm useless. My master asked you to leave, and I don't dare to keep you!" Du You said coldly.

"My benefactor, please stay!" A man who knows the times is a hero. Du Qianhao is not such a pedantic person. If he is allowed to go alone at this time, he will only die.

Chu Moyuan paused for a moment, then walked away.

Du Qianhao became anxious when he saw that Chu Moyuan didn't stop!

"My benefactor! I say!"

Chu Moyuan didn't care about him at all. He had been given the opportunity, but he just didn't want it.

"What's wrong? That person called you, why did you come back?" Xia Youan asked puzzledly.

"If he's not honest, leave him alone first!" Chu Moyuan said to Xia Youan and glanced at Qingying.

"Miss, I'm going out first. Call me if you need anything!"

"No need, you should go and rest. You've been tired all day!" Xia Youan said naturally.

Although Chu Moyuan disagreed that her master Xia Youan had not rested yet, as her personal maid, she went to rest first.

But he couldn't bear to say anything to her, so he said, "When we get to Beichuan, I'll assign you a few more maids. This way, after Qingying goes to rest, if you have anything to do, you can ask others to do it!"

"Ah? No need? There's only Qingying, and I'm almost exhausted. If you assign a few more to me, I'm afraid I won't even be able to eat or dress myself!" Xia Youan resisted.

"Originally, you don't have to do these things yourself, just let them do it!" Chu Moyuan said as if it was a matter of course.

Xia Youan complained in her heart: He is worthy of being the emperor's son. Even if he is not favored, he is not comparable to a commoner like her!

As they were chatting, Du You's voice came from outside the carriage again, "Your Majesty, Du Qianhao refused to leave and insisted on seeing you. He said that as long as Your Majesty is willing to see him, he will tell you anything!"

"He's missing! Just come and report after you understand the situation. I didn't really intend to chase him away so late at night." This time, Chu Moyuan didn't even open the car door and sent Du You away directly.

Du You quickly found out the situation.
