Chapter 74 Difficulty distinguishing between friend and foe

Mo Lin did not dare to have any objection to Huaian's orders, and nodded silently, took the order and left.

At the same time, Meng Qi, who was lying on the ground with Ning Zheng, also wanted to volunteer, but Xia Sheng held it down.

This raid launched by the wolves was definitely not an accident, but was manipulated.

Xia Sheng saw this very clearly.

From the beginning, the wolf pack's goal was very clear. First, it was to bite the horse pulling the cart to death, and then destroy the cart, so as to leave the people in the cart nowhere to escape.

Such a strategy is definitely not something that an ordinary giant wolf can possess. If Xia Sheng guessed well, there must be a spiritual practitioner who can control the wolf pack behind this attack!

I just don’t know whether the other party is targeting Pingnan Hou or himself!

Compared to Meng Qi's obedience to Xia Sheng, Brother Jing obviously complained about Huaian's decision and immediately complained: "Sir! Why don't you let me go?"

Huaian did not answer Brother Jing’s question, but said in a deep voice: “Cao Jing obeys the order! Start immediately, your only task is to protect the safety of the Marquis personally. No matter what happens next, even if you have to pay the price of your life, you must not retreat. You may do it?"

Brother Jing's eyes turned solemn, and he nodded immediately and said, "Cao Jing obeys the order!"

After saying that, Brother Jing held a short axe in one hand and stomped the carriage with the other, and came to Pingnan Hou as fast as possible. Then he used his flesh and blood to build a second barrier for him. The burning martial arts ignited on his body immediately reflected the entire carriage into a green field.

At the same time, Xia Sheng took two steps towards Huaian, seemingly blocking Brother Jing's view unintentionally.

Immediately afterwards, Xia Sheng took out something from his arms and handed it to Huaian in a very concealed manner.

Huaian's face was not as innocent as a little bit of innocence at this time, but was full of solemnity and solemnity. He secretly took what Xia Sheng handed to him, and before he could make any statement, he ushered in the second sound of breaking the wind.

The next moment, Huaian slowly stretched out his other hand under Xia Sheng's extremely shocked gaze and leaned forward slightly.

"Wow!"

The second crossbow arrow arrived as scheduled, but failed to achieve his power, and even failed to penetrate the other side of the carriage, and was firmly held in Huai'an.

The seemingly white and tender palm actually made a sound of gold and stone as it rubbed against the arrow body, as if it was not a flesh palm, but a piece of fine iron!

During this whole process, Huaian sat steadily as if he was a mountain of Tai, and his arms did not tremble at all. After receiving the crossbow arrow, he threw it aside in an understatement, as if he had never felt the strong murderous intent on the arrow.

Only Xia Sheng could see that Huaian's face was even paler than before.

So his heart also sank a little.

Fortunately, in the next long period of time, no third crossbow arrow could be shot into the car. It was supposed to be Mo Lin and Cheng Liran who intercepted him in time outside the car.

After a while, the howling of the wolf surrounding the car gradually disappeared. Cheng Liran returned to the car and said to Huaian: "The enemy has temporarily withdrawn."

Huaian raised his eyes and asked, "Has he caught a living?"

Cheng Liran shook his head: "According to my preliminary guess, the wolf-controlling spiritual cultivator, at least the emperor-level strong man, is very cunning. He never showed up from beginning to end. He just hid in secret to command the siege of wolves. Mo Lin and I dare not be too far from the carriage, so..."

Huaian didn't comment on this, but just raised his palm gently. The next moment, the crossbow arrow on the ground was grabbed by him. He carefully stroked the arrow that was thicker than his arm, and pondered: "From the workmanship, it should not be a regular army, but it was made from a private workshop. Hey, I really didn't expect that in the territory of our Dajin Dynasty, there are still people who dare to make crossbow arrows privately?"

As he said that, Huaian looked up at Cheng Liran and asked, "How many arrows have you stopped in total?"

"In addition to the one in your hand, and the one that pierced through the carriage at the beginning, there were a total of twenty pieces."

Huaian turned his head slightly and said, "This thing cannot be left to the enemy in the dark. It must be found and destroyed!"

After saying that, Huai'an stretched out his palm without warning and pointed in a flash. The next moment, a faint blue aura shot out from his palm, passed through the hole that was knocked out by a horse, brushed through the dense forest, and drew an extremely shrill aura mark under the night. The place where it fell was hundreds of feet away from the carriage!

Seeing this, Cheng Liran couldn't help but look slightly condensed, and in Xia Sheng's heart, a burst of storm waves aroused.

Respected!

Huaian seemed not to notice Cheng Liran's abnormality and spoke immediately: "You and Mo Lin come over and take a look. If you have any survivors, you will catch them and ask."

Cheng Liran pondered and said, "Just let Mo Lin go for this matter. I'd better stay and protect the Marquis. What if the Spirit Emperor hidden in the dark still doesn't give up and makes a comeback?"

Huaian nodded: "Okay, then you can stay here. The car is unavailable now. If the Marquis has no objection, we can only walk the next way."

Where could Pingnan Hou have any opinions? He immediately responded: "Everything is subject to your arrangement."

After the words came, everyone came out of the carriage. Huaian immediately arranged: "Liran, you are opening the way forward. This killer girl, please hide your figure and support it in secret. As for you..."

Huaian looked at Xia Sheng and smiled and said, "I'm not at ease to let you leave my sight, so you can postpone it to me."

As for the remaining Marquis of Pingnan, Brother Jing, and Ning Zheng, they walked in the middle of the team. Brother Jing was of course to protect Marquis of Pingnan, while Ning Zheng was simply taking advantage of himself as an ordinary person. He couldn't help anyway, so it would be safest to stay by Marquis of Pingnan.

The group started back on the road. Although there were no carriages to transport, except for Pingnan Hou and Ning Zheng, the rest were not ordinary people, so the team was not slow.

After a while, Mo Lin also returned to the team, but regretfully stated that although the crossbow was destroyed, no survivor was left at the scene, and the clues were interrupted.

Huaian thought for a moment and ordered again: "You can't be careless about this matter. When you return to the imperial court, your Majesty will ask us to thoroughly investigate this matter. Now you go back and bring some fragments of the crossbow cart, and find two intact crossbow arrows to be submitted to Your Majesty in the future."

"yes!"

Mo Lin left again, but at the same time, Huaian grabbed Xia Sheng's arm and said coldly: "You'd better not play tricks in front of me, and not try to escape. Otherwise, even if you are useful to us, I will kill you without hesitation!"

Xia Sheng was stunned, and then felt that Huaian leaned almost half of his body on his body, so a slight premonition arose in Xia Sheng's heart.

He slowly lowered his head and his lips moved slightly, but only Huaian could hear what he said.

"Can't you hold on?"
