The besties traveled through the book together, and the prince and general became abandoned husbands
Chapter 144 If you don’t want to die, don’t move!
"Major General, should we catch up and see?"
The subordinate's voice was behind Huo Qiming. Thinking of his grandmother in the city, Huo Qiming shook his head:
"I won't chase them anymore. Let's deal with these heads. I want to go back to the city to see my grandmother."
My grandmother has been in poor condition these days, and the doctors who treated her said she must be by her side.
Huo Qiming had been out for a day and a night, and he was really worried, so he wanted to go and take a look first.
The subordinate knew about Madam Huo's condition and said no more. They drove their horses quickly through the city gate and returned to the general's mansion.
The head on the horse had been taken away and disposed of. As Huo Qiming entered the general's mansion, the soldiers looked at him in surprise and said with a sad face:
"Major General, you are finally back. Madam Huo was secretly kidnapped by the Huns.
Deputy General Zhao has already sent people to chase after him.
You should go and have a look too."
Huo Qiming's face changed drastically. He grabbed the soldier by the collar and shouted:
"With so many people in the mansion, how did the Huns sneak in?"
"I, I didn't know either. By the time the people in the mansion found out, Madam Huo had already disappeared."
The soldier was frightened by Huo Qiming's ferocious expression, but even if Huo Qiming chopped him down now, he couldn't explain why. He just hoped that Deputy General Zhao and his men could find Madam Huo as soon as possible.
Letting go of the soldier, Huo Qiming turned around and ran away with a gloomy face, shouting:
"Bring the horse back, quick!"
These damn Huns, if his grandmother had even one hair missing, he would make these people live a life worse than death.
The subordinates who heard the news rushed forward and asked the brothers who had not yet returned to catch up quickly. As Huo Qiming galloped at high speed, they followed him and disappeared at the city gate like a sharp arrow.
The soldiers brought by Deputy General Zhao were all good scouts. Xu Junjun and seven others followed the team and galloped all the way for most of the day, and soon arrived at the border point.
As they passed through several mountains and forests ahead and entered the Xiongnu territory, Deputy General Zhao gritted his teeth and said:
"It's getting dark soon. If we don't catch them before dawn, and we enter the Xiongnu territory, Madam Huo will be in danger."
Most of the Huns were violent and evil. General Huo and his family of three were guarding the Great Saint's land firmly. Countless Huns died at their hands. If Madam Huo really fell into their hands and was sacrificed in front of the army, the consequences would be disastrous.
No matter what, they had to rescue Mrs. Huo.
Xu Junjun took out the map he had found on the Xiongnu and took a closer look at it with the help of the surrounding light. He stared at the dangerous mountains that lay across the border between the Great Sage and the Xiongnu, narrowed his eyes, and said in a cold voice:
“As long as there is a slight possibility, we must not give up chasing people.
We chased them all the way and it was obvious that the Huns who were trying to capture people were right in front of us.
They must be climbing these mountains right now. We must catch up with them immediately and rescue them before they leave the Great Sage!"
The aura emanating from Xu Junjun was too eye-catching. Lieutenant General Zhao looked at her several times, but due to the urgency of the situation, he had no chance to ask in detail.
The terrain of the mountains and forests was complex and horses could not go up at all. Everyone tied their horses at the foot of the mountain, picked up their weapons and ran quickly into the mountains and forests.
Chen Liu looked at Xu Junjun who was leading the way in front, with a complicated expression on his face. He silently walked forward and helped Xu Junjun cut away the branches and weeds around him.
There were signs of people moving through the forest. Deputy General Zhao and Xu Junjun were overjoyed and hurriedly asked people to catch up and speed up to run forward.
Darkness gradually enveloped the earth.
The moonlight poured down, bringing some light to the pitch-black forest.
The crowd did not dare to use fire, so they could only try their best to identify the traces and search forward with difficulty.
Along the way, Xu Junjun's body was covered with scars, all of which were caused by cuts from the sharp branches and leaves in the mountains.
But she didn't care at all, as if she didn't feel the pain. She tried her best to follow the speed of Deputy General Zhao and rushed forward with her head down.
After more than two hours of climbing the mountain, Xu Junjun's physical strength was rapidly depleted, but thinking that Mrs. Huo's life was hanging by a thread, Xu Junjun gritted his teeth and forced himself to go faster and faster.
Chen Liu and the others saw this and wanted to say something, but in the end they swallowed their words and said nothing.
They knew that they could not persuade Xu Junjun, so they could only follow her footsteps and help her rescue Madam Huo as soon as possible.
After running frantically for most of the night, they finally heard some movement ahead on the last mountain.
"Brother, this damn old woman keeps struggling. Just slit her throat and take the body back!"
"Shut up! Lord Kannada said he wants the victim alive. If you dare to act without authorization, Lord Kannada will be the first to chop off your head when you return!"
In the darkness, more than thirty shadows were running wildly with a sack on their shoulders, chattering in the Xiongnu language as they ran.
Deputy General Zhao had been stationed at the border for many years, so he naturally understood the Hun language. When he saw that he had caught someone, his face lit up with joy and he rushed forward without thinking.
"and many more."
Just as Deputy Zhao was about to attack, Xu Junjun stopped him, took out a bottle, unsealed it, and poured the liquid onto Deputy Zhao's knife.
"Madam Huo is still in their hands. If we attack directly, there is no guarantee that they will use Madam Huo as a hostage to force us to surrender.
This is a deadly poison that kills instantly upon contact with blood. If even a little bit of it gets on human skin, the flesh will fester.
Find the right moment later and kill the Xiongnu holding Madam Huo with one blow. Don't give them a chance to react."
After sprinkling the liquid on Deputy General Zhao's knife, Xu Junjun didn't stop there. He sprinkled it on the knives of Chen Liu and the others. He whispered a few words of advice and then stepped aside:
"My martial arts skills are not good enough, and I will only be a burden if I follow you. Now it's up to you.
Madam Huo is not in good health, you need to act quickly. I will check on her again."
With a few words, Xu Junjun implicitly took the lead. Deputy General Zhao looked at her deeply, waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him immediately raised their swords and followed him quietly.
Chen Liu and others understood what Xu Junjun meant, nodded to her and followed her.
Deputy General Zhao had been fighting for many years and had a very accurate grasp of timing. When the big Hun who was carrying Madam Huo slipped, the long sword in his hand immediately flew out.
A fierce battle was about to break out. The Huns shouted in fear and anger, and at the same time, Deputy General Zhao greeted his ancestors for eighteen generations, and the sleeping forest was suddenly filled with noise.
The collision of swords and knives produced intense sparks, and blood splattered all over the mountains and forests. Xu Junjun stared at the situation ahead without blinking, his heart in suspense.
Just as she was concentrating on the battle, a cold sword suddenly struck the flesh beside her neck. A deep male voice sounded coldly in her ears, like a death knell:
"If you don't want to die, don't move!"
