Chapter 15: Sleeping in the Rough
Xiao Mo and Ling Xu turned around, and when they saw the scene in front of them, their hearts tightened, and after only a few steps, those who were pretending to be diners all drew their bright knives and stared at the two of them fiercely. Seeing this situation, the shopkeeper of the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info and Xiao Er hid, except for Ling Xu and the three people in the store, they were this group of killers.
"Looks like you've kept them waiting." Xiao Mo said to Ling Xu.
Ling Xu raised his eyebrows: "How do you know that they are coming at me?" ”
Xiao Mo tugged at the corners of his mouth: "With such a big formation, could it be coming at me?" ”
Xiao Mo looked back, not to mention that there was no one in the inn, even the people on the street ran away when they saw this formation, and the group of fierce killers approached step by step with knives......
"You are so bold, do you know ......," Xiao Liu yelled.
Shouting like this at every turn, stupid enough, Xiao Mo sighed secretly and interrupted Xiao Liu's words: "Of course they know." "The people of Yan Country are notoriously peaceful, so many killers suddenly appeared in the bazaar, and even the common people hid, and the government turned a blind eye? It's just that this group of people is so big that the magistrates can't control it.
As Xiao Mo expected, the group of killers turned a deaf ear to Xiao Liu's words, not to mention that they stopped because of fear, but they didn't even hesitate, and still moved forward.
"Why is there still one lying there?" Xiao Mo suddenly raised his hand and pointed to the corner of the wall.
Several real killers looked at the past, and when they realized that they had been fooled, Xiao Mo had already waited for an opportunity to pull Ling Xu out of the inn.
"Childe run, the slave will help Childe carry it." Xiao Liu shouted, overturning a table of wine and temporarily blocking the way of the killers.
Xiao Mo and Ling Xu got on their horses, and Ling Xu hurriedly shouted towards the store: "Little Liu! But seeing that Xiao Liu had been kicked to the ground by several killers, several killers rushed out, and it was too late to save him, and if he didn't leave, he couldn't get out of Xiao Mo, "Go." ”
Xiao Mo and Ling Xu rode their horses and galloped on the empty street, Xiao Mo recalled the previous scene with palpitations, and didn't dare to look back to see if anyone had caught up, so he just rode away on horseback until there were gradually pedestrians in front of him, Xiao Mo glanced back and sighed: "Fortunately, I didn't catch up." ”
"It's not safe here, so we have to get out of the city quickly." Ling Xu said.
After leaving the city, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that no one had caught up.
The remnant sun ancient road, non-stop, Ling Xu raised his eyes and looked into the distance, the sky was the afterglow of the veins, and the side was ridden side by side, and said lightly: "Such a beautiful scenery, but you and I are running for our lives, it is really a bad scenery." ”
Xiao Mo raised his lips and said, "It's you running for your life, not me." ”
Ling Xu looked at Xiao Mo and smiled: "Each other." ”
"Now I'm not running for my life, I'm sacrificing my life to accompany the gentleman." Xiao Mo wrapped around the reins and smiled and arched his hand, dressed in the outfit of a gentle son, quite elegant.
Ling Xu returned the salute: "I dare not be called a gentleman." But it is not difficult to see the joy in the heart.
In front of it are undulating mountains, but the mountains and forests have the benefits of mountain forests, the more densely wooded and complex the terrain, the easier it is to hide, Xiao Mo guessed that most of those people would not give up.
The trees in the forest shade the sky and the sun, the sky is extremely dark, and I can't see the road ahead, so I have to sleep in the mountains and forests tonight.
The two found a flat place and dismounted to rest. The cold wind rustled the trees, the weather grew colder, and the flames scorched the dead branches, adding warmth.
"Who are those?" Xiao Mo asked, sitting by the fire.
Ling Xu responded: "Enemy." ”
Xiao Mo was puzzled: "When you are in the territory of Yan Kingdom, there are still people who dare to kill you?" ”
"In life, if you have friends, you will have mortal enemies, regardless of whether you are in Yan or Qi." Ling Xu looked at Xiao Mo again and asked, "How did you know that cup of tea was manipulated by them?" ”
"The shop is unusually quiet, there is a problem, it happened that I saw a killer at the next table pour a cup of tea, but the tea was already cold, indicating that these people did not come for a while, and the dishes on the table have not been touched much, there must be something strange in it." Xiao Mo paused and said, "Actually, I just guessed, I just wanted to be cautious, I didn't think that I was really drugged by them." ”
Ling Xu was silent, his eyes focused on the flames, his expression was solemn, and there seemed to be unspeakable worry between his eyebrows
"Let's leave like this, what should Xiaoliu do?" Xiao Mo asked.
"What they want to arrest is me, and they won't do anything about Xiaoliu."
"Are those people from Handu?"
Ling Xu nodded silently.
Xiao Mo was surprised: "Then do you still have the courage to go back?" ”
"The more dangerous the place, the safer it is, and he won't dare to be blatant when he goes back."
"That's not necessarily, it's easy to dodge open guns and hard to defend against dark arrows."
Ling Xu squeezed out a smile, "Do you regret coming to Yan Country with me?" Now I can't protect myself and I still affect you. ”
"Didn't I already say that this was a sacrifice of my life to accompany the gentleman, not to mention the things I decided, I never knew what regret was, but now it is feng shui in turn, and I didn't bother you before?" Xiao Mo smiled slightly.
"Do you know what this mountain is?" Ling Xu asked Xiao Modao.
Xiao Mo said lightly: "How do I know about the mountains of your Yan Kingdom. ”
Ling Xu said slowly: "The mountain is not high, there are immortals, this mountain is called Jinshan, and there are many people who live in seclusion here. ”
"It seems that the prince is also a well-traveled person, well-informed, and admired." Xiao Mo flattered.
Ling Xu sighed: "Most of the people who are good at traveling are idle people. ”
It is not difficult to hear that there is some helplessness in his tone, as if he is depressed, Xiao Mo doesn't know what is hidden in this, and he doesn't know how to be relieved.
It was late at night, Xiao Mo leaned against the trunk of the tree and looked up at the night sky, the stars were like the autumn moon......
The border of Yan is mountainous, and this unique terrain makes Yan the easiest to defend and most difficult to attack among several countries, so it has also enjoyed peace for more than ten years.
During the day, the two rode horses and walked leisurely in the forest, and the shadows of the trees on the ground were mottled.
"Over the mountain in front of you, you'll be in Handu." Ling Xu pointed to the mountains in front of him and said.
Xiao Mo looked in the direction of his finger, the mountain was surrounded by clouds and mist, and if he wanted to turn over, he was afraid that it would take at least three days. And you can't sleep in the mountains and forests every day for these three days.
Xiao Mo coughed lightly, it was cold at night, Xiao Mo's body was good anywhere, but he was weak, he was hungry for three days before he fainted, and he stayed overnight before he was sick, but he wilted in half a day.
So Ling Xu left Xiao Mo to rest, and after searching in the mountains alone for a long time, he finally found a family to spend the night.
The owner is an old couple, although the yard is not big, it is complete, the front of the house is a flower garden, the back of the house is a vegetable garden, Xiao Mo rested in the guest room, looking at the flowers and chrysanthemums outside the window, smiling slightly, if it were not for the family feud, she would also yearn for such a hidden life in the world, indulge in the landscape, even if she is alone, it is also comfortable.
"This son, drink a bowl of ginger soup and go to the cold." The old woman came in with ginger soup and handed it to Xiao Mo with a smile.
Xiao Mo smiled and bowed: "Thank you, auntie." ”
The old woman smiled kindly and advised: "It's good anywhere in the mountains, but it's cold at night, and looking at the thin body of the son, don't sleep in the open anymore." ”
A bowl of hot soup warmed up a lot, Xiao Mo returned the bowl to the old woman, and saw the old woman's face clearly, Xiao Mo faintly felt a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
The old woman walked out, and Xiao Mo's eyes turned out of the window again, until he couldn't see the figure, and he was alone, not noticing Ling Xu in front of the door.
"What are you looking at?"
Xiao Mo retracted his gaze and replied, "No...... It's nothing. For some reason, this old woman always gave her a sense of déjà vu.
