No, I was just a concubine, how did I become the queen?

Chapter 401 Risking your life to save someone, can you save him just because you want to?

Lin Mingyan was held in the arms of the Fourth Master, with a line of blood splattered on her face.

That was the liquid that splashed up after the Fourth Master was shot in the shoulder, warm and fishy.

The Fourth Master's action was completely instinctive. Because of the surge of adrenaline, he didn't feel the pain in his shoulder.

Instead, he noticed Lin Mingyan's stiffness and hurriedly comforted her, "Don't be afraid, Cha Cha. The guards are right beside us and are already here."

As he spoke, he turned and looked towards the dense forest. There were quite a few assassins.

Lin Mingyan also went to look, and saw an endless stream of arrows flying towards them.

Unlike in TV dramas where an arrow is blocked and the male and female protagonists are left spinning around, these people shoot another arrow if the first one fails.

Their goal is to kill everyone.

The Fourth Master did not carry a sword today, but the whip in his hand was not to be trifled with, and could accurately whip away incoming arrows.

But the other side had more people and had made sufficient preparations, so it became difficult for a while.

What was even more troublesome was that the horses became confused because of the screams and started to lift their front hooves, and some people were thrown off their horses.

Lin Mingyan, the little mare, was gentle but very timid. She was already spinning in circles and snorting in panic.

The Fourth Master made a prompt decision, threw off the reins, and jumped off the horse holding Lin Mingyan, rolling to the ground.

Lin Mingyan was held tightly in his arms with his cloak. Apart from a few scratches on her face, she had no other injuries.

But there was an arrow stuck in the Fourth Master's shoulder, and when he rolled down, it hit the arrow and tore a big hole in it. He groaned and frowned.

"Master..." Lin Mingyan felt the blood rolling down her neck and was extremely worried.

The Fourth Master stretched out his right hand and deftly pulled out the arrow from his shoulder: "Cha Cha, hide behind the tree. I'm fine."

The arrow had a barb, and although it wasn't inserted very deep, you could hear the creepy sound of skin tearing when it was pulled out.

Lin Mingyan was extremely calm. Without any hesitation, she quickly hid behind a big tree.

Only then did she realize that almost everyone around her was injured.

However, Princess Naren was equipped with a sword and was also a martial artist. She jumped off her horse early and was not affected.

She turned around to look for Wen Xian, but there was a lot of chaos around, so she couldn't see the couple for a while.

But with Shun Anyan around, she felt much more at ease, as he should be able to protect Wen Xian.

At this moment, a hidden arrow came spinning and rushing, accurately piercing Zhang Jia's back.

Lin Mingyan saw with her own eyes that she spat out a mouthful of blood and fell off her horse while holding her chest.

"Hiss~~" Her pupils shrank, but she did not move a step.

She has no skills and cannot save others.

If something goes wrong in the impulse, what will happen to the Fourth Master and the children?

The only thing she can do now is to hide well and protect herself.

Once the guards capture all the assassins, everyone will be saved.

Lin Mingyan couldn't bear to look at other people's situations anymore, and her beautiful eyes were fixed on the Fourth Master.

He had torn off his troublesome cloak and thrown it aside, and was fighting with someone with a sword he had found from somewhere.

Lin Mingyan gritted her teeth and watched him thrust his sword into the waist and abdomen of an enemy, then pulled it out with his back to block another man's sword.

Although he had experienced two battles with bandits, this was the first time he saw the Fourth Master fight with real weapons.

The enemy was numerous, and with the assistance of archers in the dense forest, many people were injured in a short time.

However, their ultimate target is actually the Fourth Master, so other people may be affected, but if they hide, they will not be caught and beaten to death.

However, the guards have arrived. The most honorable person here is the Fourth Master, and they are all guarding him.

For a while, the other side was unable to find a breakthrough and the two sides remained in a stalemate.

Lin Mingyan breathed a sigh of relief. If they held on a little longer, more guards would arrive and they would be saved.

The Fourth Master also knew this principle. As long as he could protect himself, he would hurt the opponent if possible and would not fight to the end.

But the enemy obviously understood, and their attack suddenly became fiercer. Whether they were holding swords or archers, they all targeted the Fourth Master alone.

Lin Mingyan hid aside, her heart pounding, and she wished she could rush out and fight with him.

As the attack became more intense, many of the guards around the Fourth Master fell, but they were still able to hold on.

At this time, a man rushed out from the side, fearless of death, holding a knife in both hands and rushing forward.

He completely gave up on protecting himself and only thought about taking away as many guards as possible.

As soon as this move was made, four of the Fourth Master's guards in the southeast corner were taken away at once.

Although he died tragically, the southeast corner was suddenly left without protection, creating a gap.

Lin Mingyan looked towards the dense forest from the southeast corner. The archers there had obviously noticed the situation here and were aiming their arrows at this side.

Naren also discovered it, but she only had a thin sword in her hand and could not help at all.

She glanced at Lin Mingyan who was hiding nearby, pulled up a smile, and rushed towards the Fourth Master with open arms.

Even though there were countless arrows behind her, she was actually excited and happy at the moment.

No one can get into the heart of the cold-faced Fourth Prince.

What if she was seriously injured trying to save him?

She just couldn't believe it. Even after trying so hard, she couldn't leave a mark in his heart?!

The Fourth Master was still dealing with the enemies around him and didn't pay attention to the situation here.

Five arrows shot towards him at high speed. The guards were able to block three of them, and the remaining two came towards the Fourth Master.

Listening to the sound of breaking wind, Naren even laughed and shouted: "Fourth Prince, I am here to save you..."

"Sigh~~~"

Two sharp arrows grazed her cheeks and met the arrows shot from behind.

If it was a little bit worse, her ear would have been shot through.

However, the assassin's arrow behind her did not hit her as expected.

She was rescued?!

After this thought flashed through her mind, Naren was not happy at all, but glared in the direction where the arrow was flying.

What a nosy person!

But when she saw who shot the arrow, her eyes widened instantly.

Lin Mingyan hid half of his body behind a tree, holding the bow and arrow in his hand, and was taking out two arrows from the quiver beside him.

She was alone, but there were seven or eight archers on the opposite side, so she shot two arrows at once.

Her bow and arrow was not an ordinary traditional bow and arrow, but a compound bow that she made according to what she learned online in her previous life.

The advantages of a compound bow are that it is compact, labor-saving and more accurate.

After Lin Mingyan learned the traditional bow and arrow, she thought of the compound bow. After making it, it was the first time she brought it out.

I originally wanted to show off on the hunting ground to save face in front of the Fourth Master.

It is really a surprise that we can save this woman with ulterior motives now.
