Chapter 361
An arrow flew straight towards Wei Jue's face.
Wei Jue didn't have a sword with him, so he couldn't use the sword to block the arrow. He could only hold Ye Xi and bend down to dodge.
Xue Jiu had seen the arrows long ago, but he had no time to step forward, so he could only shout, "Protect the adults!"
As soon as the words came out, the guards behind him whipped their horses faster and rode forward, while Wei Jue pulled the reins back to slow down.
He knew that more arrows would be shot at him soon, so he shouted back: "Xue Jiu, sword."
Xue Jiu had been carrying Wei Jue's sword. Upon hearing this, he quickly threw the other sword in his hand towards Wei Jue.
Wei Jue raised his hand to catch the sword thrown at him, but at the same time he was hit in the left shoulder by an arrow.
"My Lord! Quick, protect me!"
After seeing this, Xue Jiu was furious and yelled at the guards around him to come forward. If it wasn't the wrong timing, he would have wanted to curse them as "waste".
Ye Xi was completely confused at this time. After Wei Jue slowed down, she could indeed open her eyes and see things.
When the arrow feather appeared in the air, she didn't know that it was danger, but was wondering why there was a black dot flying in the air with a tail.
Then she felt a big hand pressing her back down hard, and then she heard Xue Jiu's shouting, and then she realized that someone was coming to assassinate Wei Jue!
Her first realization was that she was going to die!
It was Wei Jue who implicated me! I was wailing in my heart.
Soon, assassins on horseback appeared all around. They came with great force and seemed determined to take Wei Jue's life.
Wei Jue held Ye Xi in his arms and swung his sword to fight back. The arrow feather on his left shoulder did not penetrate deeply into the flesh and did not pierce through, probably because it was shot from a long distance.
He felt that the arrow feathers were in the way, so he waved his sword and said to Ye Xi, "Xi Niang, pull out the arrow for me."
what? !
Ye Xi was swaying in his arms and couldn't even sit still. Hearing this, she felt it was nonsense.
"Pull out the arrow for me! If you don't want to die, be obedient."
Wei Jue felt that women were really a hindrance on the battlefield, and it would be a hassle to ask her to pull out an arrow.
If he wasn't afraid of being distracted and giving the enemy an opportunity to take advantage, he would have wanted to pull out the arrow himself.
Ye Xi was not deaf, she knew what he wanted her to do, but the key was that she had to be steady, how could she pull it out if she was swaying back and forth.
She didn't know how to ride a horse, and she was very scared on horseback. She always felt like she would fall off. If he hadn't held her, she would have suspected that she would have become the dead soul under the horse.
Also, they had been riding all day with only a few short breaks, and she felt like her butt was about to be split in two.
Now Wei Jue can't take care of himself, and she has to hold on to him tightly to avoid falling. It would be very difficult for her to help pull out the arrow in this situation.
She definitely doesn't want to die. She hasn't lived enough. Besides, how can she die when the scourge in front of her is still alive?
It turned out that in order to hold on to Wei Jue tightly, her entire upper body was twisted backwards like a pretzel.
At this time, her right hand was just on Wei Jue's left waist, and she looked up and saw the arrow.
Because Wei Jue was moving around, the horse was shaking badly, and she always felt that she would fall off the horse if she let go.
Wei Jue’s left hand had actually been on Ye Xi’s shoulders the entire time, otherwise she would have fallen down long ago.
After Ye Xi came back to her senses, she also found that his left hand had been on her shoulder: "Let me go first, I want to pull out the arrow!"
After hearing this, Wei Jue put down his left hand and instead held her waist. He had to make sure she wouldn't fall.
