The hay storage warehouse at the horse farm had long since become a sea of fire, accompanied by terrible screams.

The crowd fled on the steppe.

I turned my head and saw the commotion of horses running in my direction, and for a moment I was terrified.

Coming on, all that awaits me is the life of trampling!

The legs couldn't take a step, and the whole person seemed to be immobilized.

Suddenly, someone pushed me hard, and I fell on the grass!

Looking at it intently, the next second I was already being pulled up by that familiar figure.

A horse was almost right next to me!

The commotion in the steppe continued, and the scene was chaotic.

Under the trampling of the horses, the screams are endless!

Ji Jiu pulled the frightened me on the back of the horse and said in a low voice: "It is not suitable to stay here for a long time, just cross the Yushan Trail." ”

He led me to gallop on horseback, and in the smoke, two figures who couldn't tell who they were also riding horses and following behind.

I thought back to the dinner that I didn't have time to finish just now, and my heart sank to the bottom, thinking back to the sky-high fire outside the courtyard, and when the group of people camped in the next horse farm were violent and moving, no one knows!

However, my intuition told me that it was inseparable from the few people who had infiltrated the Yuzhou conscription team.

There was the sound of the howling wind in my ears, I never knew that Ji Jiu's riding skills could be so good, it was completely beyond my imagination.

The deepest impression he has on me on weekdays is his weak appearance, and now that he is at the most critical moment, the speed of his reaction and action is beyond my expectations.

Rushing out of the racecourse, turning the horse's head around the col along the trail, Ji Jiu quickly whipped me and galloped all the way.

I sat on horseback and suddenly lost the courage to look back. I know that the scene behind me is like purgatory!

Even at the most critical moment, I actually thought of the empress's heavy blow in Yuzhou.

I know what War Horse means for this upcoming big battle, if I were her, how would I deal with the next situation?!

The trail of Yushan is a little smoother than it has ever been before. Perhaps it is the result of the large number of carriages coming and going, and the result of several road repairs by the Yuzhou government.

Ji Jiu took me out of that terrible place non-stop, without slacking off at all, and planned ahead, the scene that was supposed to be tomorrow morning was advanced.

The wind was speeding on the mountain road, and the shadows I had seen earlier seemed to be hallucinating. I didn't hear the horse's hooves trailing behind

I don't know how long I ran, but I know that I was flying fast and constantly passing through the mountains and forests, and when the mount under us reached the limit of my body and finally couldn't hold it anymore and was about to fall, we were far away from that place.

When I got off the horse, I saw that the sweat on Ji Jiu's forehead was almost pooled. It trickles down his face.

Before I could reach out to help him, he sat down on the ground.

After taking a breath for a moment, he whispered: "Xiaolin, it should be safe here, rest for half an hour, you lead the horse to the stream to drink." ”

I did as I was told, and when I looked back at him, I heard him smile wryly, "I can't move now." But there are no chasers coming, so you can just go with confidence. ”

I nodded, and saw him leaning against the stone by the side of the road and closing his eyes slightly

The water of the stream is clear. You can feel the night breeze cruising through the mountains, and the birdsong in the forest is clear.

If I hadn't experienced the catastrophe just now, I would almost have the illusion that it was a quiet and peaceful night in the mountains, and I would have walked to the stream by chance.

It was only when my eyes fell on the body of the war horse that I sighed deeply.

I don't know what happened to the people in the dart bureau, the two horse farm servants who were busy fighting fires in the warehouse. fear

I thought about all kinds of ways to leave this team, but I didn't think I would leave without saying goodbye in such a situation.

The world is always crueler than I ever imagined!

Horse conscription is secondary. I thought it was a long line to be inserted, but I didn't expect the other party's move to be so ruthless. The living ones will wreak havoc on this team on the grasslands.

There is an indescribable taste in my heart, and as far as I can see, the dark and dreary mountains and forests are just like my current feelings.

The horses beside him bowed their heads to drink, and when they were full, they stretched their heads out to the grass by the stream, and the sound of chewing the grass sounded very clear in the night.

Leaning against the stone, I leaned down slowly, put my ear close to the ground, and listened intently for a long time, but all I could hear was the sound of chewing that was always going on, and the sound of the mountain wind blowing through the woods.

It was a little longer than Ji Jiu said for half an hour, and when he returned to the place where he had just dismounted, he slowly opened his eyes and looked at me.

I saw him move his body a little, and subconsciously walked over to help him.

He didn't refuse, and stood up with my strength.

Presumably, the qiē he just experienced made him overdrawn to the extreme!

His East Courtyard has always been a medicine jar, and in order to leave the plan of the bamboo garden, he used heavy medicine ruthlessly, and this time it was the same rainy day.

"What's next?" I looked back at the trail I had run earlier, waiting for Ji Jiu's next decision.

I was so frightened that I lost my judgment for a while.

"The dart man," I pursed my lips a few times, but I didn't know what to say to him.

Ji Jiu is different from me in that he is polite and detached from people, and on the surface, it seems that in the past few days, he has gradually become familiar with the people in the dart game, and he has maintained a superficial peace with Sister Li, who is deeply disgusted by him.

But I know, I've always known that he didn't even think of himself as a member of the team, or a companion to those people, so I know he won't care about it now, so I find it very difficult.

"What are you worried about, the people in the dart game have their own way to escape," Ji Jiuhui turned into the soft-spoken and indifferent man in the bamboo garden in a second. "Sister Li, if they hadn't waited for the riot and escaped in the turmoil" I caught a glimpse of the expression on Ji Jiu's face that rippled slightly, but for a moment, he regained his calmness. Not being able to escape is not good at learning, in other words, this is also fate. "If you don't encounter anything on the road, you just see the reaction."

After Ji Jiu finished speaking, his eyes rolled over me and frowned, "I went to the stream, and I didn't clean it." ”

He said it. I looked down at my clothes, which were covered in black ash from grass clippings

People are good at forgetting, and once they are out of danger, they immediately have other feelings.

Standing cold and hungry by the stream, the only thing that can be used to satisfy hunger is the stream.

We squatted on the shore where we were upstream. Scooping up the water with both hands and taking a few sips, it can be regarded as temporarily relieving the burning feeling in the abdomen.

Under Ji Jiu's gaze, I simply tidied up my clothes and washed my face by the way.

It's not a good idea to travel at night, but there's no other way around now.

After the stop, the journey began again.

This time. The speed is much better than the urgency of fighting for one's life before

At dawn, I finally arrived at the official road from Yubei to Xilan, and rested on the side of the road several times in the middle of the night.

The sun rises and shines on the wide, smooth pavement of the official road.

I got off my horse not far from the official road, and looked at the carriage and passers-by with Ji Jiu.

Riding together in extraordinary times is a last resort. Now that it's on the official road, it's more appropriate to change the way in order to avoid suspicion.

He thought of it, and so did I.

This is a non-negotiable plan.

"What to do with this horse?" I pointed to the heroes who had been with us along the way.

Ji Jiu and I met his eyes, he reached out and stroked the horse's back a few times, "This is the best horse I've seen in the horse farm." ”

"You're really picky." I looked at him a little stunned, and then whispered.

"It's a complete coincidence, not a pick."

Ji Jiu glanced at me and said, "Wait for someone to come and see if you can sell it without a lot of silver." As long as you can stop at the next stop and not go hungry. "Kobayashi, in my opinion, we'd better hitchhike. It is more appropriate to carry silver with you. "Okay, it's up to you."

Ji Jiu and I walked away from the official road one after the other, handed me the reins of the horse among the trees on the side of the official road, and said, "Xiaolin, you stay here first, I'll take a look on the road." "If I find a buyer. Take him up to the woods to lead the horse, and you can wait for me to come back with peace of mind. "If you wait two hours and still don't have a buyer." I'm going to grieve you a little more. “

I knew what he meant and nodded in agreement

The woods are far apart. I could only see Ji Jiu's figure standing on the side of the road through the gaps in the leaves.

I waited a little and sat down on a rock, and I didn't have much hope, because buying and selling is a matter of luck.

What's more, we are in a hurry now!

Ji Jiu's good luck in picking horses continued, and in less than half an hour, he really waited for a buyer.

The other party was a businessman who went to the capital of Sealand from the south, and he had a little money with a few truckloads of goods.

Ji Jiu took the man to the forest, and after telling him before, I smeared some mud on my face and met the merchant with a dirty face.

After some bargaining, both parties were satisfied, and they paid the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other.

The horse was taken away, and in addition to the silver sold, Ji Jiu also asked the other party for some dry food.

The thing I regret the most is that I have worked hard all the way from the East Courtyard to carry the medicinal materials, and it is easy for me to test the medicine that has been first completed, but after doing so, it has failed again.

Fortunately, I was interested in the ratio, and I hope to go to the next stop to buy some raw materials and try it again.

The sun is getting higher and higher, there are more and more pedestrians on the official road, and a lot of vehicles have passed one after another, but Ji Jiu, who was waiting on the side of the road, never had any intention of coming forward to ask.

I looked at the passer-by with a gentle face several times, and I had the urge to come forward and ask, but I was stopped by Ji Jiu.

During this period, there was also a team of dart board cars, and Ji Jiu looked at it, his expression stiffened.

In the end, the car that he approved was similar to the one I once sat in the border, a horse-drawn carriage for a family of four, and the hostess drove to pick up three children in the countryside, and went to Xunyang City to find her husband.

The couple opened a shop in Xunyang, selling tea as something we all like.
