31. Chapter 31
After a while, the footsteps became distinct, and they were getting closer, and the light of the torches became more and more obvious.
These people searched more scattered, and two people walked in the direction of Chen Yuan and Wen Xiaomiao, Wen Xiaomiao was so frightened that he didn't even dare to breathe, and buried his face tightly in Chen Yuan's arms.
The bushes were overgrown with thorns, and the two men could not get in, so they poked their swords into the bushes from time to time.
Wen Xiaomiao felt that time had passed too long, she had been so frightened that her whole body was soaked with sweat, and the wind was blowing cold.
A few people walked away, Wen Xiaomiao wanted to stand up, but was held down by Chen Yuan, and after a while, Chen Yuan was sure that he was safe, and then he escorted Wen Xiaomiao out of the bushes.
Wen Xiaomiao found that Chen Yuan's face and hands were full of scratches, especially a few places on his hands were still very deep, dripping with blood, and the clothes on the two people were also torn, so Wen Xiaomiao simply tore off the torn clothes and wrapped them up for Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan asked Wen Xiaomiao to change the clothes that were soaked with sweat, and it was easy to catch a cold when the cool breeze blew.
Wen Xiaomiao changed her clothes quickly, Chen Yuan put his arm around her head and whispered in her ear, "Don't do such stupid things in the future." ”
Wen Xiaomiao nodded obediently.
Wen Xiaomiao found that the sword given by Baoquan and Chen Yuan's clothes package were missing, she wanted to ask, but Chen Yuan had already signaled her to continue her journey
Chen Yuan decided to cut diagonally from the west to the halfway up the mountain and continue to walk north.
The two of them walked all night, and when it was dawn, Chen Yuan observed the surroundings and decided to take a rest, although Wen Xiaomiao's tired feet hurt and her legs were sore, she gritted her teeth and held back her voice, she didn't want Chen Yuan to think that she was a burden.
"Big brother, where are your swords and clothes?" Wen Xiaomiao took out dry food and handed it to Chen Yuan.
"It's used to deceive the enemy." Chen Yuan poured water out of the water bladder and took a sip.
"Big brother, who is chasing us?" Wen Xiaomiao finally had a chance to ask.
Chen Yuan looked at Wen Xiaomiao, "Xiaomiao, there are some things that you don't know about but are safer, if the opportunity is right, the eldest brother will tell you, but not now." ”
"Well, I know the way, I'll just follow you, I don't know what happened to my father and mother? Fortunately, Chen Mu was not at home and escaped this catastrophe. Wen Xiaomiao said.
The two men ate dry food, drank water, and continued on their way.
Chen Yuan said that it is not safe now, and the people who are chasing them may appear at any time, and they need to speed up the journey.
Along the way, there are barren mountains and mountains, and the mountains are gentle and flat at first, and the higher they are the further north they go.
After walking for a whole day, it was already full of stars, Wen Xiaomiao's feet were numb from walking, and he couldn't feel that it was his own, he was sleepy and tired, Chen Yuan found a big rock sheltered from the wind, let Wen Xiaomiao sit in it and rest, he went to hunt some game, and told Wen Xiaomiao not to run around.
When Chen Yuan left, Wen Xiaomiao finally took off her shoes, and a large blister appeared on the soles of both feet, which hurt when touched.
Wen Xiaomiao opened the gray package, trying to see if there was a suitable tool to break the blister, and found a dagger.
It was too dark, so Wen Xiaomiao touched the darkness to pick out all the blisters, and then used a clean dress to suck up the water in the blisters, and rubbed her legs, she was so sleepy that she fell asleep unconsciously.
"Xiao Miao, Xiao Miao, wake up, get up." Chen Yuan's hurried voice sounded in Wen Xiaomiao's ears.
Wen Xiaomiao finally opened her eyes, "Big brother, what's wrong?" ”
"There are people around here, we still have to keep going, and we can't go to the west, originally we chose the west because of the slope and the gentle walk, the east side is mainly faulty and very difficult to walk, but the vegetation on the west side is too short to hide, and now we have to divert the route." Chen Yuan lowered his voice and packed the package.
