Chapter 179: The Wilderness (2)
It may be that her broken thoughts worked, Huang Gongzi really disappeared the next day, and I heard the old doctor say that he hurried down the mountain before dawn in the morning, and it should be that there is an urgent matter at home.
Zhang Xiaoman can't take care of any urgent matters at home, as long as she thinks that her ears are clean, she feels a lot more comfortable.
"How did you pick me up?" Zhang Xiaoman chatted with the old doctor, "I remember that it was very remote there, and it was really not easy for an old man of yours to pick me up there." ”
"yes." The old doctor sighed, and remembered the situation that day, and couldn't help but look at Zhang Xiaoman with admiration, "Girl, you don't know, when the old man saw you, you had a pool of blood under you, I thought that maybe adults might not be able to save you, but I didn't expect the child to survive, this is really a miracle, your child is a great fortune, and he will definitely be able to soar in the future." ”
This old doctor can speak, Zhang Xiaoman smiled happily, and said: "It's not because of you, otherwise our mother and mother will be in danger, don't thank you, the old doctor will have a place where I can help in the future, just open your mouth, and never give up." ”
"You're funny, like a doll." The old man smiled and said, "The old man didn't know how to go so far that day, and he just met you fainting on the ground, maybe this is fate, no wonder the old man sees you with a good face, it is a good girl and a good person." ”
Good people have good rewards, but the old doctor's previous words attracted Zhang Xiaoman's attention, and she also felt that this old doctor was familiar, but she didn't know where she had seen it.
"How many days have I been in a coma? Is there something going on out there? Zhang Xiaoman thought that Qi Ziyun had not heard any news for a long time, and he didn't know if the old doctor could find out any news here.
"The girl was in a coma for a day and a night. Today is the second day. The old doctor said: "There is nothing big happening outside, but the mountains are high and the road is far away, and the news has been transmitted to the old man for a long time." He suddenly asked again: "Has the girl been to Ganlin County before?" I think you are very similar to an old man I met in Ganlin County, the old man used to run a medical center. ”
Hospitals? Ganlin County?
Zhang Xiaoman thought about it carefully, and suddenly thought of an old man with a very bad temper, who liked to hum if he didn't say a word, Muqiu was still there at that time, and the old doctor's medical hall was called Baicao Medical Hall, and now she can still remember what happened at that time, which is not unsurprising.
But I think of the doctor sitting in the hall at that time and the kind old man now. Zhang Xiaoman really doubted that the two were the same person.
She just looked suspicious. The old doctor had already exclaimed, "It's you! ”
Zhang Xiaoman had a headache, but he still recognized him, and he didn't know if the old doctor was going to transform after knowing that it was her.
Sure enough, it is always a good spirit that does not have a bad spirit.
"I didn't expect to meet you again. I thought it was the girl in that family who was so unlucky. It's not surprising that it's you. The old doctor snorted.
Zhang Xiaoman couldn't find the words to describe this person. It's been so long, he just remembers her, why even remember the original anger. Is it necessary?
Now what's going to happen? It seems that the old doctor doesn't like her very much, so is she going to leave quickly? wasted other people's medicinal materials in vain, she doesn't have a tael of silver on her now, she can't do it if she graciously loses the silver and leaves, is it because she has to swallow her anger when she doesn't hear it or see it?
It's been almost seven years, so it's fate to be able to meet in an irrelevant place, the old man is a child, why should she have the same knowledge as him, not to mention that she took advantage of the old doctor, and it is normal for him to want to lose his temper.
"I'll just say that you don't study well, and now you're abandoned by your husband's family, right? Your husband doesn't look like your opponent, it's not a good thing to be too stubborn, girls still have to be gentle, otherwise ten or twenty years will still be the same. The old doctor didn't know if he hadn't spoken for a long time, and he talked endlessly when he opened the conversation, seeing Zhang Xiaoman's attitude of avoiding forbearance, he became more and more proud, "This incident is a lesson, if you don't correct it, it will be more ...... next time Where are you going? ”
"I'll go out and breathe." Zhang Xiaoman walked out of the house slowly after speaking, she should not get up and move now, but the old doctor can crackle and say so much with a medicine, and her life will not be better in the future, she should think of a way.
The old man stood in front of the wooden house with his hands folded and said, "It's cold outside, I don't like the old man to speak and say it, the old man just shut up, why hurt his body and run out." ”
"It's okay, I'm breathable." Zhang Xiaoman really doesn't want to quarrel now.
"Hmph, I said it was okay, I didn't see my nose was frozen red. You don't have to hide from me, I'm going to go out later, is there a problem with you staying here alone? "The old doctor was very reluctant to ask Zhang Xiaoman's meaning, and he was also very worried that Zhang Xiaoman would stay here alone, but the medicinal materials he finally came across would be gone if he missed it." When the sun comes out, you can go around, but don't go too far, you are still very weak, be careful that the child can't be saved. ”
Zhang Xiaoman became angry when she heard this, and turned to glare at the old doctor, "I hope you don't make fun of my child, I don't like to hear these words." ”
"Hmph." The old doctor snorted and felt speechless, so he didn't talk to Zhang Xiaoman, and went down the mountain with the basket on his back.
Zhang Xiaoman watched the old doctor gradually walk away, found a stone and sat down, fortunately the sun gradually rose, the stone is not cold, so sit down and pestle your hands, the breeze blows gently, but I really want to sleep.
The sight on the mountain is quite good, Zhang Xiaoman can see far away at a glance, a few small dots in the distance keep moving, and the sound of leaves rattling, to make sure that she is not mistaken, Zhang Xiaoman immediately stood up nervously, poked his head and looked down.
It's really those people in black, she has heard Qi Jimin's story, the people who chase her are cold-blooded and ruthless people in black, they are simply ghostly, and it is not easy to chase them here, but I don't know if someone is informing, otherwise how could she be found so coincidentally? And the timing was too good, when everyone was gone and she was the only one left. And they came.
Zhang Xiaoman's stomach was nervous and felt a slight pain, she couldn't continue to sit here now, whether it was to find a way to hide or stagger the man in black to go down the mountain, which choice had to be decided quickly, those people didn't seem to pity the fragrance and jade, they fell into their hands, and it was delusional to want to live.
Zhang Xiaoman saw that there was a path behind the wooden house, and she couldn't hide it, so she could only choose to avoid it, so she tried her best to protect her stomach and staggered down the mountain. Step by step, she felt like she was playing with her life.
Children can't stand the toss. Her child is less than three months old and can be miscarried at any time, and if she has the slightest accident, the child will be the first to be harmed. Zhang Xiaoman regretted it a little. If you don't make the old doctor angry, leave her alone. Doctor, maybe there will be a mechanism here. He saved her in front and couldn't hurt her in the back, so he would definitely run away with her, wouldn't she have to run away in such a hurry? Impulsiveness is the devil. Again, it's true.
When Zhang Xiaoman was halfway down the mountain, he heard people on the mountain shouting: "People are below, hurry up and chase them!" She panicked, almost stepped on the air under her feet, and finally stabilized her figure, but found that there was no road here, Zhang Xiaoman was dumbfounded, how could there be such a thing, don't all roads have an end? What is the stop here for?
It seems that she can hear that the danger is approaching step by step, Zhang Xiaoman's heart is extremely panicked, but her brain is extremely calm, she looked around, she must be able to find a way for her to continue walking, but she can't find anything when she looks left and right, the murderous aura behind is very heavy, her heart is horizontal, and she grabs the vine and slowly shrinks down.
This is really more dangerous than rock climbing, if the vines can't bear Zhang Xiaoman's weight in mid-air, if she falls, she will definitely be killed. Zhang Xiaoman's sweat was dripping out, and her palms were damp, but she could only go down and down, and she had to find another way before the man in black arrived, otherwise she would definitely not be able to outrun them, and she would catch them sooner or later.
After a dense forest and finally reached the foot of the mountain, Zhang Xiaoman couldn't see where the man in black was, and the man in black might not know that she was standing below, and her vision was blocked by the woods, so now is definitely the best opportunity to choose a direction to escape, this mountain is so big, it is impossible for them to surround and look for it, so they can only disperse, scatter, even if she is really unfortunate to meet one of the men in black, there will always be a chance to survive if she fights to the death.
Zhang Xiaoman snorted and panted, looking at the different mountains around him, if he stood in the perspective of the man in black, where would they think Zhang Xiaoman was running?
A pregnant woman is still an exhausted pregnant woman, anyone will basically choose to run down the mountain, after all, it is the most labor-saving way, but this way does not have much advantage for Zhang Xiaoman, because she has to protect her stomach, so she has to be careful about the road under her feet, and accidentally falling down is definitely like rolling down the stairs, with heavy casualties. If you climb up the mountain, it may be a little harder, but the weight will be much smaller, although the stomach is facing down, but her hands can have time to support the body in time, which is definitely much safer than going down the mountain with a big belly. Besides, she can hide herself at any time when she goes up the mountain, and it is convenient for her to observe the situation by standing on a high place, she doesn't know if it's the right thing to do, but at the moment she thinks it's the best way.
Zhang Xiaoman climbed up the mountain, careful not to make a sound, walked around the open open place, it was easy to be exposed, she walked a distance and looked back to see where the man in black was, climbed to the door of a cave, she looked back, and the man in black reached the ground.
At this time, the distance between them was already very close, but Zhang Xiaoman looked down from above, and she was hiding, so she was not discovered by the man in black for a while, she became more and more careful, seeing that the man in black really dispersed, she breathed a sigh of relief, but in an instant, the breath was raised again, and two people came this way.
Zhang Xiaoman closed his eyes, wiped his sweat, and continued to climb up cautiously.
When the man in black arrived at the entrance of the cave, they looked around and walked into the cave, most people should have thought that Zhang Xiaoman would hide inside, but she was now in a bush on the side of the cave, the grass was very high, and it could completely cover Zhang Xiaoman, she didn't dare to stick out her head and peep, just listened to the voice over there and waited for the two people to leave.
After a long time, Zhang Xiaoman heard two men scolding and came out, and he didn't know what he found in the cave, and one person said: "That thing can eat people, if she hasn't been eaten in it earlier, let's take a look at it again, that girl is very cunning, and it is not necessary to deliberately lead us in." ”
"Yes, it's been three days, I must find her today and bring her back!" Another person said something later, Zhang Xiaoman didn't hear it clearly, in fact, she couldn't run for a long time, so she planned to hide in the cave for a while at the beginning, but she couldn't hide in it as soon as she saw it, so she would have been discovered by now, and when the man in black hid after investigation, they shouldn't come back, as long as she insisted for a while, and waited for the man in black to leave and come out, she would be out of danger.
Zhang Xiaoman heard the two of them say that the cave was very dangerous, but it was much better than her current position, people could see her hiding place at a glance from a high level, and only the cave was the only way out.
She is not afraid of anything now, even if she dies immediately, does not fall into the hands of the man in black, and does not drag Qi Ziyun down, she is also happy, so even if there are really fierce beasts inside, often people are more terrible than fierce beasts, and she will not necessarily fall into the mouth of the tiger.
Zhang Xiaoman held her breath and approached the entrance of the cave, the smell of corrosion hit her face, she almost vomited, she finally covered her mouth tightly, and forced back all the nausea, she walked in.
She was scared when she walked in less than three meters, she was not afraid at all when she was alone, but now she has so many worries, she really doesn't want to die here, and she doesn't want to die here without knowing the white bones, she has to go back to see many people, and watch her children grow up, she has so much unwillingness, how can she just give up.
When she went into the hole, there was a groove on the left, she didn't have to go inside, she just had to climb up to the groove and lie inside, and people couldn't see it below, because the groove was more than two meters high from the ground, and she couldn't see what was hidden in it at a glance.
There are many such grooves, only this one is the closest to the outside, she wants to bet that those people will not come back, she will hide inside and go over. Zhang Xiaoman stepped on the crack of the stone and grabbed the stone to climb up, she didn't climb up for a long time, her stomach hurt very much, but a long time has passed, maybe the two people have gone back, she has to go in, there is no way back.
It wasn't until she really climbed up, looking at the groove that there was no beast that shouldn't have appeared, Zhang Xiaoman was stunned and shed tears, holding her stomach and sitting down, all the grievances came to her heart, she was really sad, the more tears flowed, the more she cried, the more she wanted to cry, she didn't dare to sobble loudly, she could only suppress the slight sound and couldn't make it.
It's been a long time since then.
Still expected it for her, those people didn't know how far they had gone and came back, and walked to this cave suspiciously to watch, Zhang Xiaoman could hear their rapid panting, as if a pair of eyes saw her hiding here, and she felt that he would pounce on him all of a sudden.
The two of them searched carefully and moved forward, the groove is definitely a search place that cannot be let go, Zhang Xiaoman bit her lip and her heart contracted, she was ready to fight them, but there was a sound of explosion outside, like a signal flare rising into the air, the two people turned around and went out, and said "go" in unison, leaving the cave.
Zhang Xiaoman's eyes were swollen from crying, and she sat in a daze for a while, but she didn't expect the two people to come back, she immediately opened her eyes wide and didn't dare to move.
"It doesn't seem to be here, it shouldn't be this mountain." One person said.
"But there is no news from several other places, even they haven't found anyone, could it be that we missed it?" Another humane.
"No way, unless she really hides in this cave, but ......," said the man before, "if it's not here, then it's no longer this mountain, and I can't let it go." ”
"I heard that the general's wife knows kung fu, is it possible that she defeated that big guy and is hiding inside, should we go in and have a look?" This person spoke in a very gloomy tone, and intentionally or unintentionally glanced at the place where Zhang Xiaoman was hiding.
Zhang Xiaoman breathed. (To be continued......)
