Watching the cavalry approach step by step, Wang Tuo gradually narrowed his eyes and counted the seconds in his heart.

A cavalryman searching along the road, with a long knife in his hand, slashed at the surrounding bushes, and when he reached the bottom of a large tree, he was about to look up at the tree, only to see a dark shadow falling from the tree.

Wang Tuo hung on the back of this cavalryman at this time, and the cavalry immediately shouted, "In this ......" Wang Tuo stabbed the branch in his hand into his neck, and then turned the branch, forming a gap with the muscle cortex, and blood spurted out.

But the two words shouted by the cavalry before his death had also alarmed the surrounding cavalry, and Wang Tuo pushed the cavalry off the horse, and was about to turn the horse's head.

At this moment, an arrow feather shot towards Wang Tuo, the distance was too close and there was nowhere to hide, so he could only avoid the vital point as much as possible.

With a "poof", the arrow was shot into Wang Tuo's left shoulder, Wang Tuo gritted his teeth and "drove", and then the horse continued to gallop deep into the forest.

Then Wang Tuo was driven to the cliff, raised his eyes and cursed without cursing, "Damn Xipi, shouldn't all the waterfalls and rivers under the cliff?"

Then the cavalry who arrived shouted, "Run, why don't you run?" As he spoke, he slowly drew an arrow feather from his quiver, and the cavalry could not help but be angry that a 12-year-old boy had let himself chase all night without saying a word, and had lost one of his brothers.

Wang Tuo, who knew that he had no way to escape, was like ashes, and then slowly closed his eyes.

The cavalry drew his bow to the fullest, and then an arrow was fired, and at this moment, only one person, out of everyone's field of vision, moved at a speed incomprehensible to ordinary people, like a gust of wind passing by the cavalryman, catching up with the arrow feather and holding it in his hand.

"Young master, can you promise the slave maid that no matter what desperate situation you are in in the future, don't give up hope of life, okay?"

Wang Tuo, who heard the familiar voice, opened his eyes and said, "Pothos, why are you ......" and then lost too much blood from the arrow wound in his left shoulder and fainted.

"I don't know who the predecessors are, we are the garrison of Lingchi County, and we are ordered by the copper county guard to arrest the fugitives, please sell your face," the cavalry army commander said

Green Pothos turned to look at the group of cavalrymen, her face was grim, and her fingertips flashed.

"Divine Fire Talisman"

Immediately, a circle with the cavalry as the central point burned into flames.

"Senior, I mean that you have no grievances and no hatred, why do you hurt people as soon as you meet," the cavalry captain shouted angrily.

"Get out," Luluo said with a cold face

Then there was a flash of fingers, and a talisman appeared from his hand again.

"Kamikaze Talisman"

The wind suddenly rose from all sides, blowing tongues of fire towards the cavalry in the ring of fire.

"Ahh

Inside a farmhouse

Wang Tuo slowly opened his eyes, looked around, and there was a "crackling" fire sound in his ears, and then he wanted to get up to check, but the wound that accidentally pulled to the shoulder "hiss~" The severe pain made Wang Tuo gasp.

"Young master, are you awake?" Luthos, who heard the sound, trotted all the way to the bed, and at this time, Luluo changed into the dress of a village girl, but it was still difficult to hide her tall figure.

"Luluo, it's really you, where are we now, what about the cavalry who are chasing us?" Wang Tuo asked nervously

"Young master don't worry, I've already dumped them, they can't find this place, young master just have to recuperate with peace of mind" Lu Luo said.

Wang Tuo took a deep breath, relaxed, and wondered, "There are so many cavalry, how did you get rid of them?"

"Well~ That's right, at that time, a mysterious man in black fell from the sky, divided five by two, and beat the cavalry away, and then the maidservant got on the horse and took it away" After thinking for a while, the green pothos replied seriously.

Wang Tuo was dumbfounded, "Yes, it's a vain question to ask" knew in his heart that these were all made up by the pothos, but the pothos didn't want to say it, and he didn't bother to ask.

Ten days later

At this time, Wang Tuo's body has roughly recovered, and he sits by the stove with pothos to keep warm, although the winter in the south is not as cold as in the north, but it is extremely humid and freezes into the bone marrow.

"Pothos, I'm almost recovered, it's time to go," Wang Tuo said.

After hearing this, the green pothos nodded and said, "Young master, are you planning to go to Wucheng in the northwest?

Wang Tuo pondered for a moment and said, "Just these few days, you don't need to follow me, it's a long way to go, if there is any danger I can't take care of you, you can stay here and wait for me to come back."

Luluo was about to speak, but was interrupted by Wang Tuo, "That's it."

Luluo nodded, "Young master, I happen to know that there is a caravan in the nearby town, which came from Yucheng in autumn to buy some goods from us, and now it is winter and I happen to be rushing back, young master can follow the caravan to Yucheng first, and Yucheng and Wucheng can save a lot of trouble."

Wang Tuo added firewood again and said, "That's right, I'll go to the town tomorrow to have a look."

Next

Luluo packed his luggage early in the morning and went to the town with Wang Tuo, and saw the caravan in the distance constantly beckoning his men and carrying the goods.

"Hurry up, hurry up, why don't you eat?

One person in the caravan kept greeting, kept swinging his round figure, he should be the captain of this caravan, otherwise he would have traveled a long distance in this caravan, how could he raise this body.

"Pothos, you just wait for me here, I'll ask" Wang Tuo finished speaking and walked towards the caravan.

"Big brother, I want to ask, what do you call the head of this caravan?" Wang Tuo patted him on the shoulder and said.

He looked back at Wang Tuo and found that it was a kid, so he said, "Where did you come from, the hairy boy, you didn't see that I was busy, while playing"

"Eh, big brother is like this, something happened to my family, let me go to my relatives over there in Yucheng, you see, this is just the way, if it's convenient, take me a ride" Wang Tuo was not annoyed and continued.

"We're a regular caravan, no idlers, I'm sorry," he said impatiently.

Just as he was about to turn around and leave, Wang Tuo grabbed his chubby hand and stuffed a bag of silver into his palm, "Big brother, don't be in a hurry to refuse"

With his face softened, "Take you, it's not impossible, it just so happens that there are still vacant seats in the caravan, but I'll tell you first, everything is based on the caravan, don't fall behind when you hurry, I don't care if there are few people walking!

"Okay, then thank Brother Hu first," Wang Tuo said.

Then return to the pothos.

"I've already communicated, and they agreed to take me on the road," Wang Tuo said.

"Well, then I wish Gongzi a safe journey and return as soon as possible," the pothos responded.

Wang Tuo looked at the back of the pothos and gradually moved away, "One day, I will let you tell me willingly, those secrets in your heart"

As Brother Hu greeted, the caravan sounded a horsewhip and officially began its return journey.

The caravan had been on the march for two days, Wang Tuo was lying on his back on the carriage, and the midwinter sun seemed to be afraid of getting cold, and the road was cloudy and idle, so that the coachman could talk.

"Big brother, how many days are we still from our destination?" Wang Tuo asked.

"It's still early, go forward for three more days on the official road, you can leave the country after passing the pass, and after leaving the country, you have to walk another seven days on the mountain road, enter the Yucheng Pass, even if you arrive at the destination" The coachman is also a talkative person.

"What are we pulling in this car, there is always a sour smell," Wang Tuo asked.

"It's just some crops, eh, what is the matter with your young age, without your family, and following the convoy to Jade City alone?" the driver asked rhetorically.

"Something happened at home, let me go to the relatives in Yucheng" After Wang Tuo finished speaking, he no longer had the mind to continue talking.

At the inspection of the pass, Wang Tuo closed his eyes and meditated.

Three days later

"Stop, check," shouted the border guard.

As soon as the first carriage stopped, Brother Hu turned over and got out of the car, and the layer of lifebuoys on his body changed to swing with the range of movements. Walked up and said, "Master Jun......"

After hearing this, the border garrison nodded, and began to check from the fourth carriage, holding a piece of paper in his hand, which was a portrait of Wang Tuo, and checked the personnel on the car one by one, from the personnel, goods, and the bottom of the car.

"Check it out, let it go," the garrison shouted to his companions in front.

As the border troops let go, the carriage slowly marched again. At this time, Wang Tuo, who was hanging under the head car, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After a stop for repairs, Wang Tuocai returned to the original carriage.

"When you were just checking at the border gate, where did you go? I want Captain Hu to find out that his temper makes you unable to eat and walk around," the groom asked with concern.

"It's okay, I'll go to the back carriage to chat, and I happen to encounter an inspection, so I won't come back at all, thank you brother for your concern." Wang Tuo responded.

Wang Tuo snorted, found a comfortable place and lay down.

"By the way, what are the first three carriages transporting, why don't they need to be checked," Wang Tuo suddenly remembered and asked.

"Shhhh

Wang Tuo immediately turned over and looked at the three carriages in front of him, the goods in the big boxes were obviously not crops, and there were more horses than other carts, obviously pulling things that were not light.

"Whatever, like the old brother said, don't worry about idle things when you go out, as long as you don't have any more moths this time" He closed his eyes after thinking about it.

After a while, his face was cold, there were snowflakes floating in the air, and small white feathers were like pear petals blown off.

In the evening, the snow was still falling sparsely, and the surrounding vegetation was covered with a snow-white quilt, and the carriage stopped at the foot of a mountain.

"Captain, this isn't the place where we stayed overnight," said one of the convoy men.

"Less, it's snowing, the road ahead is not easy to walk, there happens to be a vacant lot here, stay here tonight, and talk about it tomorrow when the snow stops" Brother Hu said.

"By the way, eat something good tonight, I have a plate of mutton here, take it to the brothers, make a mutton soup, add fat, and keep out the cold" After Brother Hu finished speaking, he took out a plate of mutton from his carriage and handed it to the guy in charge of the meal.

"Hehe, this Captain Hu is afraid that the sun will come out of the west today, and it is the first time in so many years that I have been with him," the groom teased.
