Chapter 216 Melee in the Dilapidated Temple
Mu Yun Chu naturally noticed her absent-mindedness and wondered what she was thinking.
He hoped that at this moment, the person the girl was thinking of was him.
He found that the more he learned about this woman, the more he liked her.
The slender waist beneath her hands struggled slightly. Mu Yun Chu turned to look at her and stopped on a branch of a large tree.
Gu Qingyue breathed a sigh of relief. She still liked being close to a man she had just fallen in love with, but she felt a little uncomfortable.
"Cough----you take a rest, I can manage on my own," Gu Qingyue quickly said, afraid that he would continue to hold her as they flew.
Mu Yun Chu looked at the girl's obviously evasive gaze and smiled. Was the little girl shy?
How could a little girl who has witnessed countless life-and-death situations and killed countless people be shy when facing herself?
A sweet feeling suddenly welled up in Mu Yun Chu's heart.
Looking up, she saw the snowflakes growing larger, fluttering and swirling through the woods, landing on Gu Qingyue's eyelashes.
Mu Yun Chu raised her hand and stroked her face. "Then you come with me and be careful."
"it is good".
Gu Qingyue flashed a stunning smile, her joyful mood displayed openly before Mu Yun Chu.
The two exchanged a knowing glance.
He chuckled softly, leaped into the air, and with a light touch of his feet, jumped more than ten feet away.
Gu Qingyue looked up at the increasingly dark sky, raised her hand and caught a snowflake in her hand, a chill running straight to her heart.
I never expected it to snow here in winter!
As far as she knew, this situation was very rare in the southwestern region of the Great Chu.
According to the "Lizhou Local Chronicles", since the founding of the Great Chu Kingdom, there have been eleven snowfalls in the southwest region, and this should be the twelfth.
I remember when she had just settled down in Lizhou, she asked Rong Qingqing to buy her a whole bunch of books about the history, customs, and even laws of the Great Chu and the surrounding countries.
She learned about the current situation of the Great Chu and its neighboring countries.
If you don't understand her, you'll feel very uneasy.
Because the original owner had virtually no knowledge of the world outside Xinghua Village in her memories, she was truly exasperated.
According to records, the most common weather conditions in Southwest China during winter are damp, cold, and chilling to the bone.
Seeing that Mu Yun Chu was left with only a piece of clothing, she disappeared in an instant.
Gu Qingyue also focused her energy in her dantian, leaped into the air, and quickly swept across the clusters of branches in the forest. In a moment, she also disappeared without a trace.
Suddenly, a dark figure landed on the tree branch where the two had just been standing.
His eyes were filled with a cold loneliness as he stared motionlessly in the direction the two had gone.
“Chief, they should be heading towards that dilapidated temple five miles away,” a man in black said, stopping not far behind him.
"It seems Mr. Hui's plan was correct; he really has come."
"This is our only chance. Give the order to kill them all at once," the shadowy figure said, then instantly drifted forward and disappeared.
In the woods, Gu Qingyue and Mu Yun Chu maintained a distance that was neither too close nor too far.
Soon, they arrived at the outside of the dilapidated temple.
Mu Yun Chu stopped and suddenly turned around.
A sharp arrow pierced through the snowflakes, through the dark green leaves on the branches, and flew straight toward Mu Yun Chu.
Mu Yun Chu turned sideways unhurriedly, lightly touched the ground with her feet, and floated away.
Gu Qingyue watched this scene coldly from a tree branch in the distance.
She tightened her grip on the military dagger and waited quietly.
Behind her was Gu Yuanen, who had just joined them.
Gu Yuanen drew his longbow to its full extent and waited.
Gu Qingyue only realized upon arriving here that Gu Yuanming and Gu Yuanen had been lying in ambush nearby, waiting for someone to break in.
We need to give the other side a chance to make a move, right? Otherwise, how can we eliminate them as quickly as possible?
Although Gu Qingyue and the other person appeared calm on the surface, they were still on edge.
If we can't wipe that group out today, there will be endless trouble in the future.
At this moment, Gu Qingyue had completely released her mental energy.
Within a radius of 100 meters, there were about 100 men in black, all dressed in black and with silver masks covering the left half of their faces, exuding an imposing aura.
About a hundred meters away from her, a tall and burly figure in black held a golden bow in his hand, with a tuft of purple feathers at the end of the long arrow.
That arrow was shot by him.
It moved with lightning speed, almost as fast as thunder and lightning.
It seems that this person's archery skills are probably no less than Gu Yuanen's.
Gu Qingyue squinted and carefully examined the man. At this moment, half of his face was covered by a mask, and the exposed half of his face was full of heroic spirit and sharp eyes. It seemed that he was not someone to be trifled with.
She wanted to ask Gu Yuanen if he knew this person, but then she thought that they hadn't met yet, and if she described his appearance now, it might scare Gu Yuanen. So she decided against it, since they would have to meet eventually.
"That person just now was very skilled at archery," Gu Qingyue said softly.
Gu Yuanen nodded slightly, his three arrows resting steadily on his bow, as steady as a rock.
Gu Qingyue recalled what Mu Yun Chu had said in the carriage on the way, and her heart clenched again. It was Mr. Hui and the others who deliberately leaked the information about coming to the dilapidated temple to lure Mu Yun Chu into a trap. After much deliberation, Mu Yun Chu decided to 'take the bait'.
However, both sides have already set up their positions. Whether today will be a trap or a case of the mantis stalking the cicada unaware of the oriole behind, it all depends on how they make their move.
As Mu Yun Chu nimbly swept into the dilapidated temple, a group of men in black instantly rushed out, each with half-face masks covering their faces, exuding a murderous aura, and surrounded Mu Yun Chu.
Seeing this, Gu Qingyue's heart pounded.
Her fists clenched tightly.
With a "ding," an arrow that had once again flown out of the jungle was deflected by Mu Yun Chu's soft sword, and the man in black had already closed in.
"Kill!" A loud shout came from the other end of the dilapidated temple.
Moments later, Mu Yun Chu's black-clad bodyguards, Dark Wolves, charged into the midst of the masked men like streaks of black cannonballs.
The sounds of fighting and clashing swords came from various parts of the dilapidated temple in the distance.
Gu Qingyue squinted at the tall man carrying the golden bow.
He stood on a tree branch, far away, his eyes like those of a cheetah poised to pounce, fixed on Mu Yun Chu, who was fighting among the crowd.
A moment later, an arrow was nocked on the golden bow.
Gu Qingyue's heart tightened.
Just then, he raised his right hand high, and the arrow was shot into the sky.
With a 'whoosh', the arrow emitted a sharp hum.
About thirty more masked men in black, who had been hiding in the woods, rushed out.
At this time, about a hundred people were already fighting in front of the temple gate.
Mu Yun Chu leaped into the air and landed steadily on the roof of the dilapidated temple.
His sharp eyes shot into the woods.
With a chilling murderous aura, mixed with the increasingly dark sky and blizzard, it swept in, covering everything.
The man with the golden bow tossed the bow and arrows to the person behind him, drew his longsword from his waist, and leaped into the air, heading towards Mu Yun Chu.
In a short while, the two were locked in a fierce and evenly matched battle.
Gu Qingyue squinted and observed carefully.
Mu Yunchu was handling the situation with ease; she probably hadn't used her full strength yet.
She really couldn't tell whether the other party was giving it their all.
However, as things stand, Mu Yun Chu is basically out of danger, which puts her at ease.
Gu Qingyue used her mental power to survey her surroundings, including the woods and the area around the dilapidated temple.
Within a radius of 100 meters, she had a clear understanding of the numbers of both sides.
Overall, they can be considered evenly matched.
Gu Qingyue watched as Dark Wolf, who had flown in from the other side, clashed with the masked man on the other side. At this point, both sides still had twenty or thirty people hidden in the shadows.
It seems that the two sides have the same strategy.
