Chapter 28: No Peace of Mind

  Chapter 28 Not at Peace

  `

  The black iron arrowhead was pointing at Xia Ya, motionless and unwavering. The archer knight's hand was extremely steady, his eyes fixed on Xia Ya with a calm gaze that seemed to hold a hint of stability. Even from such a distance, Xia Ya felt a chill run down his spine as he was stared at.

  He just can't stand pressure!

  What kind of person is Xia Ya? Growing up in the mountains, trained in Ye Huo Town, he has a stubborn temper and will not be bullied. If you speak to him nicely, he'll let it go, but if you try to force him, it will only trigger his rebellious streak.

  To put it simply, he is the kind of person who, once his blood gets hot, even if he knows he can't beat you, will still dare to risk his life to splatter your body with blood!

  Facing the cold arrow, Xia Ya's face changed only for a moment, and soon her eyes dimmed.

  The sound of horseshoes was getting closer and closer on the west side of the riverbank, Xia Ya glanced at it with the corner of her eye, and saw that the dust was flying in the distance, and there were probably more than ten riders coming. At present, there were only three opponents in front of her, and she had barely managed to get rid of two of them, almost losing her life. If seven or eight more came...

  Xia Ya quickly calculated the distance of the horse team in the distance, and made up her mind with a determination.

  He stared at the archer knight, his hand still motionless. The knight saw the change in Shaya's eyes and felt a chill in his heart, as if he had sensed something. His fingers, which were holding the bowstring, loosened without hesitation...

  With a whir, the last arrow shot towards Xia Ya's throat! Xia Ya's whole body tensed up, suddenly took a deep breath, and his body pounced sideways, while in mid-air, the fire fork was shot at the distant knight!

  Gasp!!

  The knight's chest suddenly burst forth with a bloom of blood, the fire fork piercing through his chest and passing out the other side. The immense force even sent his body flying off the horse's back, landing on the ground, where he was pinned down by the fire fork!!

  Xia Ya felt a chill run down his neck, he had dodged with all his might, but didn't expect the knight's archery skills to be so exceptional. Although he had exerted himself fully, it was clear that his opponent had already taken into account his dodging movements, and the arrow shot forth like a venomous snake, biting deep into Xia Ya's neck...

  At this moment, even Shaya himself thought he was dead for sure. He felt a blow to his neck and the last thought in his mind was:

  Mom, is it over? I'm still a virgin...

  ……

  Plop!

  Xia Ya fell to the ground, battered and bruised all over, but after wiping his neck, he surprisingly didn't find a single drop of blood on his hand. Instead, he saw an arrow on the ground with its tip already dulled. He was taken aback for a moment before his hand touched something on his neck - a dull gray stone. This stone was the only legacy left to Xia Ya by the old man, and Xia Ya had no idea what it was or why he kept wearing it around his neck. Yet, unexpectedly, it saved his life this time, as the arrowhead clearly hit the stone and bounced off...

  It's not that the knight's marksmanship is inaccurate, it's just... he's too accurate! If his hand had trembled even a little, and his aim was off by half a degree, then Xia Ya would probably be meeting the old man underground right now.

  That knight who died with a stubborn purpose was nailed to the ground, his body twisted several times before he died. I'm afraid that until his death, he couldn't understand how he had actually lost due to being too accurate in shooting techniques?

  Xia Ya wiped her neck, and her soul immediately returned to its place. With a loud "ding", she jumped up, spat out a mouthful of blood, then took a few steps forward, first kicking the already completely collapsed knight leader to the ground, before rushing over to pull her fire fork out from the corpse.

  Even if he was a bit dim-witted, he would have reacted by now and realized that this fire fork of his might be a bit off!

  At this moment, the distant horseshoes sounded one after another, just like the drumming of a death knell on his heart. Xia Ya didn't dare to delay any longer, and returned behind the rock, picking up the poor bug that had completely lost its senses.

  The poor insect stared blankly at Xia Ya: "You... you defeated Him..."

  "Hope your mother!" Xia Ya didn't care about much, a slap landed on the poor bug's face: "Can ride horse or not?"

  The poor worm immediately woke up, subconsciously nodded, and Xia Ya immediately threw her onto a horse: "Run north, don't stop!" After finishing, she didn't care about the poor worm's scream, using a fire fork on the horse's buttocks was a poke. The poor worm hadn't sat firmly yet, let out a scream, almost letting the horse throw her off, and could only hold onto the horse's neck tightly, following the horse as it galloped away.

  The knight leader on the ground and the knight with a broken leg saw Xia Ya, and both of them suddenly changed color, staring at Xia Ya tightly, their whole body trembling.

  Xia Ya himself flipped over a horse, but threw away all the messy and fragmented weapons hanging on the saddle. He sat on the horse and saw the goblins peeking out from behind the rocks with one eye. He stretched out his hand and pointed: "Oakes, come here!"

  Oakes hesitated for a moment, then understood that Xiaya was going to take him away. He let out a loud whoop of joy, not being foolish and also seeing the knights on the other side of the river. If he stayed here, he would probably only get slaughtered. Xiaya picked up Oakes and put him in front of himself, then looked at the remaining goblins and chose the shortest one, picking it up and putting it behind himself.

  Although three riders sat on the horse, this warhorse was extremely majestic, and the earth spirit was originally short and had limited weight, so it could barely support it.

  Oxston was dissatisfied and felt that his special identity made him eligible to escape with Xia Ya on horseback, so why did this human master choose a dwarf again?

  But there was no time to talk, Xia Ya had already seen the cavalry on the opposite side rushing to the riverbank, with the two horses in front already entering the water and approaching. Xia Ya kicked the horse's belly hard, and the warhorse suddenly let out a long whinny, standing up on its hind legs. This almost threw Xia Ya and the two goblins off, but fortunately, Xia Ya's legs were tightly wrapped around the horse's belly, and he held onto the two goblins with one hand each, preventing them from falling off.

  Xia Ya was furious in his heart, but actually he was a poor hunter from the mountains, where had he ever ridden a horse? However, after sitting firmly, he repeated his old trick, and with one thrust of his spear, it landed on the horse's buttocks. The poor warhorse let out a painful cry, kicked its hooves wildly, and galloped away in a cloud of dust.

  At this moment, the other team of knights has already crossed half of the river, and two people have been separated to find the three wounded knights who died earlier. The rest of the people did not hesitate at all and chased up.

  Xia Ya urged the horse to gallop, he had never ridden a horse before, and at this moment he felt the wind whistling past his ears, and was almost thrown off the horse's back, but heard the continuous whistling sound behind him, and the horseshoes clattering.

  Turning back to look, he saw several riders closely following behind him in pursuit.

  Xia Ya couldn't ride a horse, his equestrian skills were basically blank. This warhorse was majestic, but after all, it had three people on its back. Although the two dwarves were slightly lighter, together they weighed as much as a human. After running for a while, their speed gradually slowed down.

  As the pursuing soldiers behind drew closer, Xia Ya could only desperately kick the horse's belly while picking up a fire fork to poke its buttocks. Unfortunately, this poor horse was in bad luck and started galloping wildly with all four hooves, probably exceeding its normal speed by who-knows-how-much, but only managing to foam at the mouth.

  Xia Ya sat on his horse and suddenly heard the vibration of a bowstring behind him. Instantly, his scalp felt numb and he bent down.

  The knights chasing behind, some of them seeing the distance getting closer, took out their bows and arrows to shoot. Xia Ya heard the whizzing sound beside his ear, he didn't know horse riding skills, let alone high-difficulty techniques like hiding in the stirrups. However, he burst out laughing, not dodging or evading, but instead grabbed the earth spirit sitting behind him with one hand and used it to block the incoming arrows...

  Just then, the poor earth spirit let out a loud "Ouch ouch" as seventeen or eighteen sharp arrows pierced its buttocks.

  Xia Ya held up the meat shield, blocking left and right, while the earth spirit continuously shouted "Oke Oke" loudly at first, but gradually its cries grew fainter, until it saw that its body had been shot to the point where there was nowhere left to grab.

  At this moment, the knights behind him also discovered Xi Ya's despicable tactic of using human shields and refused to waste their arrows anymore, only galloping after them with all their might.

  Xia Ya burst out laughing and shamelessly threw away that poor meat shield.

  At this moment, the princess sitting in front was frightened to death! Her not-so-clever head had already figured it out, and when her human master got on the horse earlier, she brought these two goblins with her, fearing...

  I'm just afraid you're not being sincere!!

  As expected, Xia Ya lost a meat shield and grabbed the spare No. 2 Meat Shield Wang Fei from behind him, pulling it to his front. Oakes loudly shouted: "Ass, Ski, no!!!!"

  Ke Xiaoyu's life is at stake now, where does he have the mind to care about Wang Fei's affairs...

  After running for about an hour, no matter how hard Xia Ya urged the horse on, it was finally unable to run any further. The white foam in its mouth grew thicker and thicker as its speed slowed down, but the pursuing soldiers behind them still couldn't be shaken off. What's more, the poor guy ahead seemed not to have run too far either. As Xia Ya galloped along, he actually gradually caught up with the poor guy.

  At this moment, the poor guy in front suddenly pulled the reins and forcibly stopped the horse, then turned around and frantically waved his hands to signal Xia Ya to stop.

  Xia Ya looked far away and immediately discovered that the big river beside him had turned a bend in front, and the terrain had become steep. The riverbed on the riverbank had become a deep canyon due to winter drought, stretching out in front of him, which was probably tens of meters deep! Fortunately, after measuring with his eyes, it seemed that the width had decreased a lot due to the upstream reason.

  Xia Ya pulled the reins to stop the horse, seeing that the pursuing soldiers were getting closer behind him. He simply pulled the poor guy from the saddle onto his own horse, then stared intently at the canyon ahead and poked the horse's buttocks again with force...

  The horse's hooves flew as it rushed up the canyon under helpless circumstances and leaped over the precipice!

  The horse's body jumped out of a beautiful arc in mid-air and then... fell down.
