They could tell that Fei Yuan’s forehead was already covered in sweat and his face looked much paler than before.
Fei Yuan also felt that something was wrong. His hand, which was originally holding the sword, actually felt sore and powerless.
He was very anxious, but the more anxious he was, the weaker his hand became.
Finally, there was a crisp sound. The sword fell to the ground and clanged against the stone.
As Fei Yuan looked at the sword on the ground, his face turned pale.
“Ling Wei, you actually schemed against me! I’m gonna fight you to the death!” As Fei Yuan spoke, he turned around and walked out of the thatched hut.
Seeing this, the others didn’t stop Fei Yuan.
Because they understood that Fei Yuan couldn’t find the crown prince, Ling Wei.
It was useless for him to do anything now. He might as well hurry up and detoxify the poison.
If it were in the past, General Guo and the others would definitely help.
Unfortunately, Fei Yuan’s actions just now had broken everyone’s hearts, so no one was willing to help him anymore!
Who would help an ingrate?
Fei Yuan also knew that from now on, he would become increasingly estranged from the others!
If he was asked if he regretted it, he would definitely say he regretted it, but most of all, he felt indignant!
Why did the heavens toy with him like this?!
It was clearly a good opportunity for him to rise up the ranks. Why did he have to do this to him?!
Before Fei Yuan could figure it out, an arrow suddenly flew over and pierced through Fei Yuan’s head.
Before he could say anything, Fei Yuan fell to the ground. His eyes were wide open and he looked indignant even before his death.
When the others heard the commotion, they looked over and were immediately shocked. General Guo wanted to rush over to check.
Zi Cheng reacted faster. When the arrow shot out, he shielded Li Xiaoran and hid under a rock.
At this moment, arrows flew over.
Seeing this, General Guo immediately brought his personal guards to hide.
The others quickly hid around to avoid this wave of hidden arrows.
Li Xiaoran thought of something and said, “It seems that the backup arranged by King Fu is here. Generals, let’s work together to deal with these people first! ”
When General Guo heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he asked, “If you have any ideas at this time, feel free to tell me. Saving our lives is more important!” Li Xiaoran laughed when she heard General Guo’s words.
“Of course I can, but I only have a few people, so I still need your help!” Li Xiaoran said.
“Alright, tell us what you need us to do!” General Guo replied.
Li Xiaoran was a little worried and asked again, “Where are the other generals?” Wu Ke said, “As long as you can bring us out of danger, we’ll do whatever you say!
“Yes, yes, yes. Brother Guo means what we mean. If you have any ideas, feel free to tell us!” The others said in unison.
After Li Xiaoran observed the situation outside, she said, “At this moment, we’re in an open space, and the other party is hiding in the surrounding forest. We don’t know how many people the other party has sent or where they’re buried! There aren’t many places we can hide in this place. If this continues, it’ll be even more disadvantageous to us, so we have to take the initiative.”
“Just tell me what idea you have. Don’t waste time.” Wu Ke had a bad temper and interrupted Li Xiaoran impatiently.
“I can provide you with some powder. Do as I say and move to the place I specify. Then, read my instructions. If I raise a handkerchief with a stick, your people should immediately sprinkle that powder towards the forest.” Li Xiaoran told them her plan.
“How can you be sure that this method is useful?! The other party isn’t a fool. Just because you scatter things doesn’t mean he’ll fall for it!” Wu Ke raised another question.
Li Xiaoran said confidently, “You guys just have to do as I say! Besides, there’s a time limit regarding how long a person can hold his breath. When our powder
passes over, they’ll be in the middle of catching their breath! This way, the other party will naturally fall for it!”
“Is your powder effective from so far away?” Wu Ke asked again.
“Sigh, are you still a man?! Why are you asking so many questions?! At least I have a way that we can try. Why don’t you just stay here and wait for death? I wonder what will happen to you if you lead troops to war like this?! Do you want to do it or not?” Li Xiaoran didn’t have the patience to explain to him.
Seeing that Li Xiaoran was angry, Wu Ke also realized that he was too indecisive and didn’t say anything else.
“We’ll do it. Madam, please give us the powder!” General Guo said.
When Zi Cheng heard this, he immediately threw a few porcelain bottles at the others.
Fortunately, everyone was trained all year round, so even if they couldn’t use their internal energy, they were still skilled.
Li Xiaoran said, “After you guys get the things, go in four directions. One is behind the big tree in the south, the other is behind the mound in the middle, the third place is the furthest big rock, and the last is near the bushes in the west. Send people to these places with the powder and follow my orders. As long as I raise my handkerchief, hurry up and spread the powder. If the handkerchief doesn’t move, hide yourselves well and don’t attack!”
General Guo and the others nodded tacitly. Then, they sent their best guards and ran towards four places according to Li Xiaoran’s arrangements.
It was unknown if it was because the previous wave of arrows had already exhausted a lot of the other party’s arrows, but the enemy didn’t stop them at all and they successfully arrived at the places Li Xiaoran had mentioned.
Seeing that the four teams were already in position, Li Xiaoran asked Zi Cheng to stand in front and protect her, while she stood with her eyes closed and opened her hands to feel the airflow outside.
Before long, the airflow suddenly changed!
Li Xiaoran pulled Luo Cheng to squat down, then tied the handkerchief with a wooden stick and raised it.
At that moment, a hidden arrow flew over and shot at the handkerchief.
When the teams not far away saw this, they immediately poured out the powder from the porcelain bottle and scattered it in the direction of the forest not far away.
After the powder was sprinkled, it floated towards the forest.
Seeing this, the others revealed looks of joy!
