Chapter 65, Woe to Xiao Wall
Li Yan and Li Dang ran down with the red lady, and Li Dang asked, "We can't run away in a panic." The red lady sneered: "I said that if I can run away, I can run away, less nonsense." ”
The three of them ran all the way, and ran out of two or three miles, they heard the sound of water in their ears, turned a grassy slope in the forest, a cliff appeared in front of them, and looked down, it was more than ten zhang deep, and below was a big river, and the water was turbulent.
The red lady ran to the edge of the cliff, it seemed that she was going to jump down, Li Dare grabbed her sleeve: "Girl, such a high cliff, the water does not know the depth, jump down, nine deaths and life......" The red lady gritted her teeth and said: "If you don't jump, you will die and have no life." ”
At this time, the pursuers behind were getting closer and closer, and the red lady opened Li Kang's hand and looked down: "I hope you all swim ......"
After saying that, he closed his eyes and jumped off the cliff.
Seeing that she fell into the flow of white flowers and disappeared for a while, Li Yan was also ruthless and jumped down. Li Dang shook his head again and again: "Damn, it's better to die like this, it's better to fight a few enemy troops, it's enough." ”
Just thinking about it, an arrow flew behind him, grazing his shoulder and flying, Li Dare turned around, and another arrow flew in, hitting the front heart, Li Dare shouted, held the arrow shaft with one hand, shook his body, planted backwards, and the whole person fell off the cliff.
The pursuers came to the cliff and looked down, but when they saw that the water was raging, and the three of them had long been gone, the leader frowned, stomped his feet, and led the pursuers out of the valley.
Speaking of Li Yan, as soon as he fell into the river, he was carried down by the flowing water, the river was not wide, but it was very deep, so he jumped down and was not killed.
Li Yan can also swim in the water, struggling to put his head out of the water, but he can't help it, the huge impact force makes him dizzy, and suddenly bang, his head hits a stone, and he immediately dizzy, excited by the water, and sobered up again.
Suddenly, his mind was confused, and he vaguely felt that the situation in front of him seemed familiar.
Li Yan's feeling was right, this was the second time he had fallen into the river.
The last time I was chased and killed by thieves in a black shop, it was no different from this time.
Li Yan's mind thundered, and he remembered everything. The loving faces of the parents, the familiar tone, everything in the house, and the scenes of hard reading when I was a child, all emerged.
He even remembered his own name, Li Xin.
In the flowing water, Li Yan no longer knew where he was, some scenes flashed in his mind, and his body went downstream with the flowing water.
Suddenly, his body stopped, because the river turned a bend, and a big tree was across the river, only two or three feet high from the water, and at this time a person sat on the tree, and when Li Yan floated under the tree, he pulled him back.
This person is naturally the Red Lady.
She entered the water first, because of her light body, she was washed by the water quickly, and when she floated here, she hugged the branch, climbed to the tree and waited, and when she saw Li Yan rushing over, she hurriedly pulled him up.
The two sat on the trunk of the tree, Li Yanyu opened his eyes wide, thinking about things blankly, the red lady thought he was stunned, and he didn't dare to ask him, just waiting for Li Kang.
Not long after, Li Dang floated over from upstream, and when he saw the red lady, he hurriedly stretched out his hand, and the red lady also pulled him up to the trunk.
The three of them sat together, all breathing long, their hearts fluctuating violently.
Li Yan regained his senses, looked at the other two, and suddenly smiled: "Two, we will not die in a catastrophe, and it is also the will of God." Li dared to say hatefully: "But my fifteen brothers died unjustly." Li Yan nodded: "Yes, these pursuers must be officers and soldiers, ambushed around Huayin City, seeing us out of the city, they knew that there was something important, so they intercepted and killed them halfway." ”
Li Dang suddenly smiled bitterly: "If this is the case, those fifteen brothers are not wronged......
Li Yan was taken aback: "Big brother, what do you mean by this?" ”
Li Dang took out an arrow from his sleeve and handed it to Li Yan: "Look at this arrow." ”
It turned out that when he was at the top of the cliff, the enemy soldier shot an arrow, and Li Dang had already held the arrow in his hand before the tip of the arrow pierced the flesh, and the tip of the arrow only pierced a little skin and did not hurt him.
Li Yan held the arrow in front of his eyes, looked at it carefully, and suddenly felt a pang in his heart: "This is ...... This is the arrow of the Qin army! ”
When he was in Yuehuazhuang, he lived with the Qin army, and he often saw the Qin army building feather arrows, and the arrow in front of him was made by the Qin army.
Could it be that it was their own people who pursued and killed them?
Li Yan suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and an unprecedented fear hit his heart.
What frightened him was not the near-sightedness of his life, but the hearts of the people. If it was really Qin Jun who was chasing and killing him, then there was no need to ask, he and Li Kang had already been betrayed by their own people.
Why? Why, exactly?
These two sentences, Li Kang has already asked. He was not asking Li Yan, but asking the sky, and now he had guessed that it must be the Qin Jun brothers who were chasing and killing him.
Because only Qin Jun knows which way he goes.
Li Yan quickly thought about what had happened in the past two days, and finally he said slowly: "If the Qin army comes to kill us, then there is only one person who is the main envoy. ”
Li Dang hurriedly asked, "Who is it?" ”
Li Yan replied categorically: "Bai Qi! ”
Li Kang's eyes widened: "General? Why did he kill us? Li Yan said: "He didn't want to kill you, but me." You have only been burdened by me. Li Dang didn't believe it anymore: "Kill you? There's no reason for that. ”
Li Yan said: "I didn't have it before, but now I have a reason." ”
The red lady interjected: "He is afraid that you will rob him of his position in the Qin army." Li Yan nodded: "Yes, this time we defeated the official army in Huayin City, and it can be seen that the Qin army still admires me very much." ”
Li dared to say: "Yes, we are all very convinced by you, and we are willing to listen to your orders." Li Yan smiled bitterly: "This is exactly the reason why he wants to kill me." Just imagine, the last time I was defeated, General Bai Qi led six or seven thousand men and horses, and was defeated by the Ming army, needless to say, his prestige in the army was reduced, this time I led the army to win, and the prestige increased. ”
Li dared to stop talking, because what Li Yan said was very reasonable.
The red lady suddenly sighed: "Xiaoqing is still in the city, and there are still ...... And my Girl Scout! Li Dang also panicked: "Qianniang is also ...... in the city"
Li Yan comforted them: "Don't be afraid, Bai Qi won't move them, at least, not during the day." Li Dang hurriedly said: "Are you sure? Li Yan nodded: "The Qin army that killed us was masked, just because they didn't want people to know their identity, from this point of view, most of the Qin army didn't know about it, Bai Qi meant assassination, and then you can make up a story that we died at the hands of thieves, and the Qin army will not suspect it." But if he kills Xiaoqing, Qianniang and them will be tantamount to self-exposure. ”
The red lady said: "But at night, Bai Qi will send someone to assassinate them." ”
Li Yan nodded: "Bai Qi's style of doing things is like this, and there will be no trouble." Although he hadn't dealt much with Bai Qi, the description of this person in the history books was enough for him to make such a decision.
A general who can kill 400,000 people in a battle, what else can't be done!
Li Dang became more and more anxious: "I'm going to save them, as soon as it's dark, I'm afraid it's too late." ”
Li Yan shook his head: "There are only three of us, how can we save it?" Right now, as long as you go back to the city and be recognized, it is a death. The red lady suddenly laughed: "I have a way, so that they can't recognize it." However, we can't all go back, three of us together, the goal is too big. ”
Li Dare said: "I can go alone, and it's not a fight, just notify Xiaoqing and Qianniang and bring them out." ”
The red lady took out the close-fitting oilcloth bag and put on makeup for Li Kang, and in a moment, Li Kang changed from a sturdy mighty man to a charcoal seller with a dusty face and a rickety figure.
You can make up your body and face, but your voice can't change, so the red lady speaks as little as possible, and tries to speak with a dumb voice when she speaks. Li Dang wrote it down.
Li Yan said: "That team of women's soldiers, you don't need to bring them, Bai Qi won't touch them." ”
The red lady thought for a while: "Yes, this group of people has just been recruited, and they are not confidants, let Xiaoqing disband them on the spot first, Bai Qi will not pay attention." ”
After the discussion, the three of them climbed out of the valley, discerned the direction, and then determined the meeting place, and Li Dang returned to Huayin City alone. In the deserted village on the road, Li Dang found a dilapidated board car, lowered his head and pulled it, and walked towards the city gate.
