More and more people came to this flat land, and they left Slate Town as if fleeing for their lives, for fear of being overtaken, and they did not dare to stop all the way. www.biquge.info The shadow of death still loomed over them, and only in Yinzhou City, the nearest big city to Slate Town, did they have enough doctors and medicine to remove the threat of the plague god. But by this time, they were tired, their legs were so sore that they could no longer lift them, and the elderly, as well as women and children, did not want to go any further.

Refugees set up makeshift camps not far from water sources and built fires for cooking. The guards of the cavalry battalion found out about the refugees' actions and hurriedly went to the commander - Captain Qi Lin of Zhiguo. Qi Lin ordered people to go and inquire, and when he learned that these people had escaped from the plague-ridden town, he couldn't help frowning, and when he heard that these people were staying by the water source, his heart was even tighter: if the epidemic was transferred from these people to the water source, not only the cavalry battalion would not be able to protect it, but even the iron bed crossbow team downstream.

A warm fire had just risen in the townspeople's camp, and those who had been on the run all day had just breathed a sigh of relief, and the kettle on the fire had not yet sounded. A well-equipped army of soldiers had surrounded the place. The townsfolk stood up in horror, and the timid woman was already holding her man, and her whole body was trembling. One man walked out of the group: "You guys leave at once." ”

Everyone looked at each other, and an old man trembled with a cane and said: "It's dark in the middle of the night, where does the official let us go, let's stay for a night, and leave as soon as the morning dawns." ”

The sergeant at the head shouted: "No, you leave immediately, this is an order, otherwise, you will be killed." ”

Immediately, someone in the crowd shouted: "You are forcing us to die!" If you don't leave, you won't leave if you die. Others chimed in.

The sergeant at the head immediately raised his right hand, and the soldiers behind him pulled out the long knives at their waists in unison, and the blades flashed with cold light, which was really terrifying. The townspeople, who were still noisy, suddenly fell silent. Giving up his family and fleeing is for a life, if it is not helpless, no one wants to take a life.

"Leave now." The voice was cold and hard, anyone could hear it, his patience was about to run out, this was an ultimatum. If you disobey orders, I don't know what the consequences will be.

The townspeople softened, resigned, hurriedly packed their things, and walked towards Yinzhou City step by step with heavy steps, and just after a few steps, the person who gave the order shouted again: "You are not allowed to walk along the water source." ”

The townspeople, who had already softened, made a mess again. Jin Huang stood far away from the crowd and watched them make a lot of noise, "It will be beneficial for you and me to get to Yinzhou City as soon as possible, why don't we come out and break this deadlock?" Gao Xuanwu also stood aside to watch the excitement with his hands crossed, and seeing that Jin Huang didn't speak, he continued: "It takes seventy miles to follow the water source, and if you copy a small road, forty miles, it's just that the road is dangerous." She answered, striding to the front of the crowd: "Folks, listen to the little woman's words, copy the path ahead, as long as forty miles, you can get to Yinzhou City, and when you arrive at Yinzhou City, it is just when the city is opened, if you set off at dawn tomorrow, when you arrive at the gate of Yinzhou City, you may be locked outside the city gate, it is better to leave now." ”

"It's light to say, it's dark and rushing, who can stand it!"

Someone at the back of the crowd shouted, "I can stand it, girl, I'll go with you." ”

If there is a first person to respond, there will naturally be a second, and with the second, there will be no worries about the third. Those who were hesitant expressed their willingness to travel overnight, and finally everyone agreed.

Jin Huang led the way with a torch in front, and Gao Xuanwu leaned aside: "Girl, you're tired, I'll help you take care of it." Jin Huang unceremoniously handed over the torch and lowered his voice: "Your response is really timely." ”

"Of course, there is something to do with the gentleman's work. What else does the girl have to say, Gao will not hesitate. ”

"Shut your mouth and walk." Jin Huang decided to ignore the scoundrel and walk with his head down. Gao Xuanwu looked back, although the townspeople walked slowly, they didn't pull down too far, it seemed that Jin Huang was not blindly acting rashly, and he also took care of the speed of these people.

Gao Xuanwu took a step forward unhurriedly, and said secretly in his heart: "Guan Nei is really interesting, no wonder the old man asked me to come here." ”

In the darkness, Jin Huang scolded in a low voice, and he hurriedly rushed forward, looking at Jin Huang stunned by the river, and a broken wooden plank on the river was considered a bridge. "Why don't you go over? Afraid? Gao Xuanwu teased her with a smile.

Jin Huang rarely replied, stretched out his toes and tapped the plank, the plank broke in response to the sound and fell into the water, and the turbulent river instantly washed the plank away without a trace. With the light of the torch, she looked around for a suitable tree to replace. Although there are many trees, there are new problems, and it is no problem for her and Gao Xuanwu to cross the river by stepping on logs. But the old and weak women and children in the back can't get by. If it weren't for the need for these townspeople to come to Yinzhou City together, I really didn't want to worry about it. With only a short dagger in his hand, it took a lot of effort to cut the log into a bridge that ordinary people could walk. She was angry about splitting branches and leaves, and there were a few sounds of wood breaking in her ears, following the reputation, Gao Xuanwu didn't know what method to use, but he had already split a few huge trees into flat planks, and carried them to the river to build a bridge, the length was just right.

"Huh?" Jin Huang got up and stepped on it, and it was indeed steady.

"How did you get it, so fast?"

Gao Xuanwu smiled: "You want to know? Ask me, and I will tell you. ”

"Who is a hitch. You must be a carpenter. Jin Huang crouched down and looked closely at the marks left on the board. Looking at it, his face gradually changed color and became gloomy. The torch was inserted on the ground, and Gao Xuanwu didn't know that Jin Huang was already murderous in his heart at this time.

She stood by the river, lit two torches and stuck them in the rudimentary bridge, and watched the townsfolk who had fallen behind come one after another, until the last old man came, and she asked, "Old man, is there anyone behind you?" The old man shook his head: "I'm the last one, I'm old, I'm useless." It's really ...... to delay the big guy to hurry" Gao Xuanwu took a step forward and helped the old man: "Old man, I'll help you cross the river." The old man was grateful.

The bridge was very narrow, the old man walked in front, Gao Xuanwu could only stand behind him, holding his arm with both hands, and Jin Huang walked last. His feet fell on the opposite bank, and the old man thanked him again and again, Gao Xuanwu waved his hand and said, "Old man, you go over first, I still have something to do with this girl." ”

Seeing the old man walk away, Gao Xuanwu looked back at Jin Huang: "There is no one left, if you want to do it, take advantage of it now." ”

Jin Huang's face was expressionless, and the golden double dagger was clenched in his hand: "Say, who are you?" ”

Without answering her words directly, Gao Xuanwu leisurely clasped his hands and arms: "Give you three chances, guess?" ”

Jin Huang's eyebrows stood steeply, and his body was like a phantom attacking Gao Xuanwu.
