Chapter 417, there is no way to escape
β¦β¦ A corner of Mingcheng......
This place is sparsely populated, and it should be the best place to hide yourself, and Zhang Yiming and several of his subordinates are hidden in the depression between the two hills, and of course, Ming Xi'er.
Although it is finally safer now, Zhang Yiming, the strength of the Ming family, he knows it very well, it doesn't even take more than two days for this hiding place to be discovered, and until now, he still has some doubts about Situ Xichen, the Ming Mansion is indeed searching them, but nominally they are searching themselves, and he can't figure out what he's doing the "wicked" wrong.
"Tsk, what are you thinking about now, anyway, if it's true or not, I can't escape death."
Zhang Yiming smiled self-deprecatingly, with their strength they can't go far at all, once they are found, they will definitely die, he would rather Situ Xichen is lying to him, at least he died and he couldn't hurt Ming Xi'er, but what he was most afraid of was that Situ Xichen didn't lie to him, let Ming Xi'er know that it was his father who wanted to kill her, which was really too big a blow for a little girl.
"Captain."
A soldier suddenly walked in from outside the mountain valley, came to Zhang Yiming, and said in a deep voice:
"There is no situation outside, but according to the report of the people we went out to investigate, the Ming army and the royal army have joined forces, and now they have searched the area of the Third Ring."
"Really...... That's really about to find this place.,Judging from the time.,It should be almost to the fourth ring search.γ β
Zhang Yiming smiled bitterly, glanced at Ming Xi'er next to him, who had fallen asleep because of the long journey, and couldn't help sighing:
"It's better to be a child, you can still sleep like this."
"Captain, with all due respect."
The soldier who reported suddenly fell to his knees and said:
"My subordinates really don't understand what the captain's move is for, why did we bring Miss Ciel out? Did something really happen to the Ming family? β
The other soldiers who were still alive also turned their eyes here, this soldier's question spoke their hearts, now they have escaped for almost a day, but until now they don't know what they are fighting for, after leaving the Ming Mansion, Zhang Yiming didn't even have a word of explanation, even if they chose to believe in their superiors out of loyalty, but if they couldn't add a reasonable reason to their behavior, I am afraid that their military spirit would be dispersed before the Ming Mansion searched here.
As for Zhang Yiming's rhetoric to Ming Xi'er, they will never believe it, because it is their former colleagues and brothers who are chasing them now, if it is really like Zhang Yiming's explanation that the family is suffering from internal troubles, how can they still send so many troops to deal with them? How can we work together like this?
"You're asking a tough question......
Zhang Yiming sighed, with a helpless look on his face, he couldn't give an answer for a while, how could he not know what his brothers were thinking at this time? If their actions are really based on the premise of righteousness, then it will be okay, but if they are not mistaken, their gang may have been regarded as a rebellion by the Ming family.
"Brothers!"
Zhang Yiming stood up and said in a deep voice:
"The doubts in his heart must also be in your hearts, maybe in the eyes of others, we are indeed backbones, but I, Zhang Yiming, am here to assure my brothersββ"
He pounded one hand heavily on his chest and said loudly:
"Our move today is definitely not selfish, but a loyal act, if it really fails, I Zhang Yiming will take the blame, and I will never drag down my brothers!"
He had already figured out that whether their actions were right or wrong this time, he would take all the blame on himself, he had already lost several brothers just a few hours ago, and he couldn't let these people follow him to their deaths.
Situ Xichen's warning to him, whether it was true or not, he would never tell these soldiers the content of the real situation, and he was enough to die in the end.
"Captain......
These soldiers were speechless for a while, and felt ashamed for a while, Zhang Yiming regarded them as his own, but they ......
A soldier suddenly stood up, bowed his head and said:
"Captain, I was able to work in this Ming Mansion because of your recommendation, and it was you who paid to cure my daughter's illness, and I have been following you since I entered the Ming Mansion, not to mention that we are in danger now, even if I am going to die now, I will definitely go to the soup!"
"I'm going to go to the soup and fire!"
The soldiers were immediately infected, and they stood up straight one by one, and gave a military salute to Zhang Yiming in unison.
"You ......"
Zhang Yiming had a complicated look in his eyes, how did he want these brothers to carry in front of him, he hoped that they could go home alive! He immediately returned the salute to these brothers, and said loudly:
"I'm the captain, and whoever of these people dies, I have the final say!"
"Hmm...... Brother Zhang, what are you doing? β
Just when these soldiers were taking an oath for their beliefs, Ming Xi'er on the side was woken up by them, opened her sleepy eyes, and couldn't figure out the situation for a while.
"I'm sorry, Miss, we quarreled with you?"
Zhang Yiming hurriedly glanced at his subordinates, signaled them not to talk too much, and then immediately ran to Ming Xi'er's side and helped her up.
"Why, it's just that I've slept for a long time and should wake up."
Ming Xi'er shook her head again and again, but Zhang Yiming knew that in fact, she had only taken a nap for less than an hour, and it was only early in the morning, and he knew that Xi'er was a good and sensible child, and it was precisely because he understood their current situation that he didn't want to burden these subordinates in other things.
"Such a well-behaved and sensible child, sir...... Mingu, how ruthless is he?! β
Seriously, in the face of this kind of hunted and killed, it is already very good for a teenage girl to be able to do not cry or make trouble, and it is even more commendable that someone like Ming Xi'er can take care of the mood of these soldiers, Zhang Yiming really can't figure out what such a big child has in him that is worthy of a father to sell his dignity and the way of being a father, and he has to force a child so tightly.
"Brother Zhang, we escaped, but what about Brother Situ? Teacher, how is he doing now? β
Along the way, Ming Xi'er has asked this question many times, and now Ming Xi'er is most worried about Situ Xichen, they have escaped, and now they are safe for the time being, but what about Situ Xichen?
"He ......"
Zhang Yiming was speechless for a while, in fact, he didn't resent Situ Xichen's escape in his heart, but when he thought of his previous promise to leave as soon as he realized that there was danger, he immediately lost his temper, and people didn't do anything wrong, just a normal pursuit of advantages and avoiding disadvantages, but it was better to say that Situ Xichen, who left a warning before leaving, let them leave first, but was kind to them.
"We're out of touch, but with his strength, we should be able to escape."
Zhang Yiming comforted her, but the real situation is really uncertain, she fled with Ming Xi'er, and she was so flustered that she couldn't even dispose of the inscription left by Situ Xichen, Ming Gu didn't even need to investigate to know that it was Situ Xichen who was secretly playing ghosts, plus the flying dragon site in Mingcheng has been closed, Situ Xichen can't leave even if he wants to, I hope he won't be caught......
"That's good, the teacher hasn't taught me anything, if I just let him go, won't the money be spent in vain?"
Ming Xi'er made a grimace with a smile, her appearance was extremely cute, and the soldiers present also relaxed a little because of this relaxed fairy tale and became less nervous.
"That's right, Situ Xichen!"
As soon as Ming Xi'er mentioned Situ Xichen, Zhang Yiming suddenly came to his senses, no matter how he said it, he was also a top student of the seminary, although he didn't know how high his status was in the academy, but Shen Yuan, who was less than twenty years old, would definitely be taken seriously, and if it was him, he should be able to move to the rescue...... Bar......
"How is it possible, when this kind of thing happens, let alone come to help, you can't hide."
Zhang Yiming laughed at himself, why should people help themselves? Just with less than two days of friendship? He didn't remember that his face was so big, and instead of putting his hopes on others, it was better for him to come up with a way to get out earlier.
"Huh?!"
Suddenly, Zhang Yiming smelled that something was wrong with the smell of divine power in the air, and immediately his face changed greatly, and he said sharply:
"Attention everyone, get ready for battle!"
When the soldiers heard this, the relaxed atmosphere just now was immediately swept away, and everyone immediately took out their spirit weapons and prepared for a decisive battle.
Zhang Yiming also spread out his hands, summoned a glaive knife that was much taller than him, and said to a soldier behind him:
"Zhangpu, you take Miss Xi'er first, and we'll take it here!"
"Captain! How can this work? β
The soldier named Zhangpu suddenly blushed, grabbed Zhang Yiming's arm, and said solemnly:
"Where the captain is, I'll be there! How can I be left alone? β
"I'll let you go, and I'll let the labor and management get out! That's the army of our Ming Mansion, only I am the attribute god here, you are not even a god, thank God if you don't make trouble for me, what are you doing in a daze, take the young lady away! β
Zhang Yiming said angrily, this sound a little malicious and slanderous, but these soldiers knew that he didn't mean that.
And just as they were arguing, two teams of men and horses suddenly came up from both sides of the mountain, blocking all the ways they left, and now it is estimated that only by climbing out of the mountain can they avoid a battle, but they are very aware of the strength of the Ming army, and there is definitely no shortage of long-range attackers among them, and if they really go up the mountain, that is a live target.
"Captain...... I'm afraid I won't be able to carry out your orders. β
Zhangpu smiled slightly, but he didn't have the fear of imminent death.
"Alas......"
Zhang Yiming sighed, then turned around and said to Ming Xi'er:
"Miss, you wait here for a while, subordinates ......"
He turned around, and the only six remaining soldiers on both sides stood on either side, Zhang Yiming raised the Glaive Knife above his head, and said sharply:
"The subordinates will triumph!"
