The torrential rain lasted for more than two hours, and its momentum gradually slowed down. The rain had not completely stopped, but Che Yun's troops regrouped and set off again.

  Even if it was her past life, Song ChuYi had a period of extremely bitter life, but she had never fled on horseback without sleep or rest like this before. She could grit her teeth and persevere, relying solely on her willpower.

  On a drizzly night, a group of people galloped on horseback, like arrows shooting through the vast expanse of dark green mountains and valleys, with rain threads connecting heaven and earth like silver lines.

  Inside the palace of the King of Wei

  The King of Wei wore a deep brown loose robe, leaning on the armrest with a gloomy expression.

  The civil and military officials kneeling on both sides of the hall also fell silent

  The King of Wei stared at Gongzi Yang for a long time before slowly opening his mouth and saying, "Is this how you won over Song Huaiyin?"

  The crown prince said, "Your Majesty, this matter cannot be blamed entirely on the prime minister. I heard that the prime minister had a pleasant conversation with Mr. Huaijin some time ago, and Mr. Huaijin also had no intention of leaving. Hearing that dozens of people assisted in his escape this time, I think there is something suspicious about this matter."

  The origin of Song Chu Er's life is mysterious, but dozens of top swordsmen are not ordinary people who can be driven.

  The King of Wei turned to another side and asked a general, "Who was it that kidnapped Song Huaiyin this time?"

  "That general stepped forward and said, 'Reporting to Your Majesty, they are Qin people! I personally led the cavalry in pursuit and killed 25 people, among whom 17 were Qin people. Also found a secret path leading west, suspected to be a secret path opened by the State of Qin.'"

  "Hah!" King Wei burst out laughing and a cold glint flashed in his leopard-like eyes, "Pass down the order, behead Song Huaijin!"

  "Your Majesty!" The crown prince said, "Such a great talent, wouldn't it be a waste to kill him?"

  The King of Wei stared at him for a moment, his voice filled with discontent. "If you are Song Huaijin, which country would sacrifice the secret path and dozens of top swordsmen for you? Can't you repay them with your life? Hmph! You're really willing to abandon them!"

  He is younger than the Crown Prince of Wei by over a decade, yet he has more charisma and vision. How can this not make the King of Wei feel stifled? If he were to pass away, wouldn't the state of Wei be swallowed up by that vicious wolf, Qin?

  The King of Wei rubbed his temples and irritably said, "Dismissed! Dismissed!"

  Everyone bowed and withdrew.

  The style of winning is different from that of his father, but there is one thing in common, which is that they are willing to pay a great price for talents. The king of Wei has been holding back his breath, asking himself if he values talent as much as the Duke of Qin, but what about the outcome? The state of Wei has repeatedly lost power, while the state of Qin has become stronger and stronger, like a fierce tiger waiting to pounce, which makes him unable to sleep at night!

  Every time at midnight, King Wei of Qin couldn't help but think of the words Gong Shu Cuo said before his death. If he had listened to those words and killed Shang Yang early on, there wouldn't be today's Qin state! This time, he can't afford to make another mistake!

  "Someone has arrived." King Wei of Wei got up from his bed, put on his clothes and said, "Go invite Zimin Huan".

  "Yes" someone in the outer room responded and retreated out of the room

  In the dead of night, the west gate of Daliang City opened and a hundred-man light cavalry unit burst out like lightning - very little dust was raised, but an aura of stern killing intent was palpable, as if a nocturnal demon was manifesting their difference from ordinary cavalry.

  The rain near Xingyang has already receded, and after a dry winter, the rainwater fell to the ground quickly infiltrated, with very little water accumulated on the surface, and it only took one day of sunshine to make it seem like it hadn't rained at all.

  The next twelve days were all sunny weather, Song Chu's clothes dried and wet repeatedly, without even having time to change. They only ate one meal a day, rested for more than half a day, and took two or three hours off every other day, which was still completely taken care of because of Song Chu's weak body.

  Bai Jing's days were also very difficult, his appetite was getting bigger and bigger, but there was no rich meat, he could only stare at the horses of others every day, drooling. The horse was tense and its speed was much faster than usual.

  They hastened on and finally left the byway on the thirteenth day in the afternoon and walked onto the official road.

  "There are still over ten miles to go before reaching Hangu Pass, the nearby roads are rugged and cannot be ridden on horseback, taking small paths is slower and also easier to be blocked, why not take a gamble? What does Mr. think?" Che Yun slowed down his horse's speed and asked Song Chuyi.

  "Shan" Song initially, this area's terrain was also very familiar to him. All the small paths were within the borders of Wei State, and almost all of them had excellent ambush points. They were exhausted and their horses were tired, walking on those mountain paths would necessarily require abandoning their horses. In such a situation, they would rather engage in a frontal battle than be ambushed.

  Moreover, as long as they advance seven or eight li forward, the Qin army will be able to come out of Hangu Pass to meet them, which is relatively the safest.

  Making their final rest stop within Korea's borders, Baizuo couldn't help but leave and ran up the mountain to catch a rabbit for food.

  After waiting for Baijian to come back, they rested for a while before setting off again.

  The swordsman who went ahead to scout the road brought back news that every pass in Korea had been heavily guarded, showing that they had already received the information and intended to surround Song Chuyi.

  At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, Mingji's ancestors had been asked about eighteen generations on the road, and if he hadn't deliberately leaked the news, she wouldn't have fallen to this day!

  However, Song Chu also took the opportunity to trap Min Chi in Wei State. Since there was a precedent, the King of Wei would not let Min Chi go, and his reputation had already been ruined. The best solution was to stay in Wei State. It was Song Chu's private intention - only by tying Min Chi to Wei State could he truly avenge himself when he defeated him!

  The checkpoints were gambled away, and they only temporarily took a different route. In addition to the official roads and city pools, there are also some family-run commercial roads that can be walked on, where the garrisoned soldiers are slightly fewer.

  "Our target is too obvious, everyone be on high alert" said Che Yun Dao

  "Hello!" everyone replied in unison.

  The ultimate goal is to get rid of the white blade. How many people in this world can run around with a snow wolf? Those people are very strict in their investigation, even the sacks used for carrying grain need to be taken down and checked one by one. Hiding is useless, disguising is even more useless. They can change clothes, but how can they disguise a wolf? It's impossible for it to turn into a horse.

  Che Yun also saw that Song Chu was very fond of the wolf, so he did not suggest "killing the wolf" or "releasing it back to the mountains". He had already received a flying pigeon message, and the Qin state's light cavalry was waiting in ambush at Hangu Pass. Even if they encountered trouble here, as long as they could hold out for one day, reinforcements would arrive.

  Horse teams galloped on the merchant road, occasionally seeing a merchant caravan

  The merchant's news was the most informed, and as soon as he saw a group of black-clad swordsmen and a snow wolf, he immediately guessed their identity. Although Wei State had offered a reward, none of them were willing to intervene in politics or offend the scholars, but only watched the horse team's back silhouette guessing which one was Song Huaijin

  All went smoothly until they were about to leave Korea when they saw a cavalry of over 200 people on the trade road in the distance.

  Both sides almost simultaneously discovered each other, and someone on the other side shouted, "It's Snow Wolf!"

  The light cavalry troops were afraid of Song's initial escape and quickly dispersed to form a pincer movement.

  At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, as soon as he saw this side had no formation, he immediately said, "Concentrate on attacking"

  Che Yun originally led the army and went to war. Upon hearing this, he immediately understood Song Chu's meaning. He shouted loudly, "Form a wedge-shaped formation!" (, ,)
