Chapter 2: Escape from Death
The blades of the Beiying soldiers pierced through the gale, leaving no room for improvement.
At the moment, the seriously injured man suddenly rose up, pushed Zhen Yue far away with his palm and arm, and suffered this fatal knife, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and sprinkled on her face and neck in the wind, she was terrified and supported the body that was pushed out, and surprise and fear spread from the wet soles of her feet to the scalp.
She didn't know who this man was, but she had been protecting her since she woke up, and her heart couldn't help but be full of grief.
"Run!" The man roared, and with all his might, he stabbed a short knife into the horse's belly.
The brown horse neighed, jumped up madly, the Beiying soldiers on the horseback were shocked, but because of the perennial battle, well-trained, quickly struggled to pull the reins, to avoid the catastrophe of falling off the horse, the soldier's face was hideous, the evil spirit was rolling in his heart, he waved the knife and chopped away, the man's strength was exhausted, and he could no longer fight back, looking back at the stunned child not far away, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he muttered.
The remnant sun was like blood, piercing his whole body like a sharp arrow, making it impossible to catch it anymore, and crows flew and screamed in the sky.
Zhen Yue saw with her own eyes that the bloody knife penetrated his chest like tofu, so fast, so neat.
The heart turned over the river, as if there was a silk thread pulling her, as if the sword pierced her chest, she gritted her teeth and pulled her legs to escape, choked and cried, and looked back at the man's collapsed body, the blood was too heavy, his face was so blurred, only the mouth shape of the mouth did not fall, clear and abnormal, it was a sentence "Don't be afraid." ”
A child less than three feet old ran through the corpse field, like a besieged beast trying his best to find life.
The sound of horses' hooves and laughter is like the call of evil spirits from the endless hell, mixed with the joking whistle, this is a game of cat and mouse, only for the fun of slaughter.
Boom! Zhen Yue ran too fast, tripped over a stump arm drowning in a pool of blood and fell to the ground, she was injured in a fall on her foot, looked at the rushing Beiying soldiers with angry eyes, and said sharply: "I won't let you go if I am a ghost!" ”
The blue-armored and black-armored Beiying soldier steadied the reins, squinted her eyes, and held a bloody knife in her hand, she didn't have time to scream, only to see a white shadow like lightning flying by, breaking the wind like thunder, and the strength was accurate, it was actually a silver flying knife, snap! With a soft sound, the sharp blade had already sunk into his throat, and the Beiying soldiers held their throats in disbelief with blood gushing out, and fell off the horses heavily, the horses were panicked and ran towards the east of the city, the silver flying knife was instantly stained red by blood, and the Beiying soldiers stopped moving after a few twitches.
Faced with the sudden escape from death, Zhen Yue's whole heart was blocked in her throat, she took a long breath, patted her chest and gasped: "It's so dangerous, it's so dangerous, it's scared me to death." ”
She hurriedly got up and looked at the life-saving benefactor with gratitude, dressed in rough linen clothes, with a black coat and a small clip, about thirteen years old, with an indescribable Yonghua bearing, sideburns like a knife, eyebrows like ink paintings, so rigid at a young age, a pair of eyes shot cold stars, and did not look at Zhen Yue, who looked puzzled, walked straight over and pulled out the silver flying knife, it seemed that he had long been accustomed to killing, the boy wiped the blood-stained flying knife with great disgust, looked around vigilantly, and ran towards the alley with vigorous steps.
Before he could get out of the deep alley, the boy turned around and said impatiently, "What are you doing with me?" ”
Zhen Yue tried her best to ignore the carrion corpses on the side of the road, gritted her teeth and said, "You look like you're quite powerful, you should live longer." Although she has been in the army for a few years, it is only a simple physical training, at that time, she was playful, and she was only a perfunctory uncle, as smart as her, and she knew that when she first came to troubled times, she still had to rely on others.
The boy raised his eyebrows slightly: "I saved you once, it doesn't mean that I will save you a second time, if you follow me again, I will kill you, now in this troubled world, useless people are burdens." ”
Zhen Yue didn't expect the ancient children to be so unsympathetic, they were all half-grown children, and they spoke so coldly, but she also made up her mind to follow him, and she would die in the end, since he came to the rescue, his heart must not be hard.
Although the boy's steps were fast, he couldn't get rid of Zhen Yue, and in a hurry, he forced Zhen Yue into a corner, put a knife against her neck, and said coldly: "Don't follow me anymore!" The entire Di Du is a Beiying soldier, I don't want to be affected by you. ”
"I will definitely not bother you, my relatives are dead, you should send the Buddha to the west, and when you get to a safe place, I will definitely go." She blinked her misty eyes, looking pitiful.
"What are big men crying about!" He retreated in disgust.
Man! Zhen Yue touched her hair bun in confusion, and she dressed as a man!
Suddenly, the boy turned the puzzled Zhen Yue into the corner of the street, quickly blocked a pile of dry wood in front of him, and quickly covered her lips, she struggled in surprise and indignation.
"If you don't want to die, don't move."
The stern voice in her ears shocked her nakedly, and she secretly discharged her stomach: "Stinky boy." ”
The footsteps sounded from far to near, Zhen Yue chuckled, it seems that this kid is not simple, and his vigilance is better than her.
"Did you find it?" The voice is low.
"Back to my lord, the boys around thirteen years old in the city have been slaughtered, and it is impossible for them to leave Didu alive, and the adults can go back to their lives." The voice was flattering, and after a pause, he hesitated: "But there is a strange thing. ”
"Say!"
"Not only were the boys slaughtered in the city, but there were not even a single female baby left, it seems that the fall of Di Du was just a skin tiger, and there was a lot of articles in it."
"I will show you the credit to you."
"Yes, thank you, my lord, the minions follow the adults, and the future will be great."
The footsteps were far away, Zhen Yue squinted and saw that the boy's face was gloomy, his good-looking eyebrows were frowning, as if he was thinking about something very serious, she couldn't wait to break away, and said while wiping her lips: "It seems that you and I are both lucky people, hurry up and get out of here, maybe there will be some people who kill people without blinking." ”
The boy put away his thoughts and said coldly: "The plank roads in Didu have been blocked, I will take you to leave from the Yanming Mountain trail, if you follow me again at that time, I will not show mercy." ”
Zhen Yue reached an agreement with him very sincerely.
The night is still starry, and the north wind is cold.
Zhen Yue followed him all the way, shuttling through the dead alleys and streets, facing dead corpses everywhere, she has slowly begun to avoid from horror to gradually accept it, this is an era of war, millions of corpses, if she wants to live, if she wants to find life, she must be strong!
The boy is very familiar with the city, and he can always skillfully stagger the patrolling Beiying soldiers.
In less than an hour, he took Zhen Yue into a tall and leafy forest, the night breeze was blowing, the dead trees were accompanied by the cold wind, blowing the two people one in front of the other and one behind them into frost, and the lonely and cold waning moon penetrated the blood and qi in the sky, and it could not dye half of the light on the dead city of Didu.
"What do you do?" The boy found a dry place to sit down, and said in a cold tone.
The silver-gray moonlight sprinkled on the boy's face, making his facial contours even harder, Zhen Yue grabbed the dry wood she had just picked up and said suspiciously: "It's cold, if you don't make a fire at night, you will freeze to death, you should be able to make a fire, right?" ”
The boy frowned and said: "There must be smoke when you make a fire, we haven't completely left Didu yet, there are Bei Xuan soldiers lurking everywhere, if you want to die, I won't stop you, you have to make a fire and roll away." ”
