Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Little Thief
After galloping all night, Pei Guo gritted his teeth and insisted, but he was also sleepy. Pei Guo glanced back on the horse, and as far as his eyes could see, he didn't see a single pursuer for the time being, so he pointed not far away and shouted, "Don't run away!" Go over there and avoid it for a while. If you run any further, the people will be fine, and the horses will not be able to bear it! They looked at his fingers, and at the end of the gravel they could see a huge pile of bare rocks, scattered and scattered, where they could hide.
Including Jiuzhen, the riding skills of the four Liang people were far inferior to Pei Guo, and they couldn't stand it for a long time, and when they heard Pei Guo say it, they didn't have to say anything, and Hulala pulled the horse's head and went with him. At the moment, find a place to the sun, and everyone dismount together, or lie down or sit, panting for breath.
Soon the sound of horses' hooves began to rise, and as they approached, the faces of the people tightened, lest the enemy also run over. But then there was a louder sound of horses' hooves like thunder, and the previous sound roared away until it was silent. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and said happily: "It must be Hu Sichun chasing Hu Lujin, haha!" ”
Jiuzhen nodded: "He will chase the north after him, and he will not come back for a while." I don't have to be in a hurry, and I will rest here for a while, raise my horsepower, and then go south to find my uncle and wait. Everyone nodded yes, lay down and went to sleep. He waited for the middle of the night to fight, and galloped half the night, and was already too tired to work, when the enemy was gone, his mind was even more relaxed, and in a moment, one by one, snoring like thunder.
Jiuzhen also closed a pair of beautiful eyes at this moment and fell asleep. Pei Guo was only two positions away from her, and at this time he pretended to sleep, but he squinted his eyes and secretly looked at her, and saw that Jiuzhen's long eyelashes in his sleep couldn't help but tremble, and sometimes his eyebrows were locked. That demeanor was so beautiful that Pei Guo's heart trembled with her eyelashes, so intoxicated, and if she continued to be intoxicated, she couldn't tell whether she was still in reality or fell asleep...
。。。。。。
When I was half-asleep and half-awake, for some reason, I seemed to know the sound of the rope in my ears. It was also Pei Guo who was so worried that he didn't sleep deeply, and the small noise actually woke him up, and he stood up and sat upright!
In front of him, the three horses were already running away. Pei Guo was startled, and when he turned his head to look, he suddenly found that there was a short figure dangling at the tethered horse--- Hu Luguang, who had been fainting, woke up at some point, and was tiptoeing at the moment, untying a horse's leash. I can't say, the three horses that ran away must have been done by this kid.
Pei Guo jumped up with a shout and strode over. I don't want that Hu Luguang to be really a rebellious existence, and at this time, I still didn't mess up, so I untied the horse rope twice, jumped up easily, and ran away with the horse. Pei Guo ran to him, and as soon as he stretched out his hand, he was half a step away, and after all, he grabbed a void and watched Hu Luguang run away. The smoke and dust raised by the horse's hooves choked Pei Guo's face, and Hu Luguang on the horse didn't forget to turn his head and smile proudly at Pei Guo, so angry that Pei Guo jumped like thunder.
Everyone woke up together, and when they saw such a situation, they were also angry and anxious.
There was still a horse left in the field, and someone suggested that he should hurry up and chase him, Pei Guo shook his head: "I waited in a hurry, I didn't bring a bow and arrow, this little thief's equestrianism is not under me, and now he has run away, and with horsepower alone, most of them can't catch up." Suddenly, his face changed dramatically, and he looked into the distance and exclaimed, "Oops! This thief is not human! Everyone was startled again, and hurriedly looked into the distance, and saw Hu Luguang chasing the horse to the vicinity of the three horses in the distance, whistled again and again, and drove the four horses together, and soon disappeared into the vast sky.
Chen Gui pounded his chest and regretted it: "This little thief is so cunning, he should have been tied up tightly if he knew it!" Now that I have lost my horse, how can I return south? ”
Pei Guo also had a gloomy face, and he didn't have any plans left and right. After a while, he suddenly opened his mouth, and his tone was very supportive: "Right now... There are five of us at the moment, but there is only one horse... ”
When Chen Gui heard this, his eyes were immediately full of vigilance, and he interrupted Pei Guo loudly: "Since there is only one horse, it should be ridden by Jiuzhen." I'm a good man, so it's hard to fight with a girl's family. You say, don't you? The other two Liang people claimed that they were, and they even sandwiched up one left and one right, obviously blocking between Pei Guo and the horse. Chen Gui was also forced to come up and shouted at Jiuzhen: "Jiuzhen, hurry up and get on the horse." You go back first, don't worry about me and wait. ”
Pei Guo was stunned for a moment, knowing that Chen Gui would be wrong, he smiled bitterly, and was about to speak, but he heard Jiuzhen open his mouth first: "What are these words?" Come together, let's go back together! Her tone was extremely resolute, and she said Pei Guo's heart: I originally had the same meaning as Chen Gui, let Jiuzhen go first. So, it's not good to persuade her like this...
Chen Gui was anxious: "God knows when those horse thieves will turn around?" If you don't leave now, when will you stay? Jiuzhen, you have the hope of my Chen family's future, but you can't delay me here! ”
Jiuzhen shook his head, but refused. Chen Gui thought for a while, and then said: "Jiuzhen, you think this is good, you can gallop back first, and when you see Lord Lang, you will bring people and horses to save me." It's better than being stuck in this place together! ”
Jiuzhen glanced around, sighed and said, "What you said is not unreasonable, but in this vast desert, where do I know the way back?" I'm afraid I'm going to run away and get lost, how can I come back to save you? Suddenly, her eyes lit up, and she said to Pei Guo: "By the way, Pei Langjun, you were born in Saibei since you were a child, and you should know the way." Why don't you ride back and bring someone with you? How is it? On the side, Chen Gui was so anxious that he stomped his feet and shouted: "No! ”
Although Pei Guo has never been here, he always has the ability to discern the direction in the desert, and if one of the five people must be selected to take on this important task, there is no doubt that Pei Guo should do it. But the center of his eyes is full of nine really pretty faces, how can he be different at this moment? What's more, the situation in the desert is ever-changing, and the horse thief may come back at any time, how can he stay here? So Pei Guo smiled slightly, and said loudly: "This place is far away from Wuchuan, I have never been here, to be honest, I don't know the way like Jiuzhen Xiaoniang." I can't help with this. ”
Chen Gui and the three of them heard Pei Guo say this, although they had doubts, they finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the look of vigilance in their eyes disappeared slightly; Jiuzhen was a little disappointed, but he didn't doubt him; A few were speechless for a while, muttering indecisively. In the end, Pei Guo spoke: "In any case, this is not a place to stay for a long time. Since Jiuzhen Xiaoniang said to go back together, then I will wait here and go south, even if I walk, I will also walk back! ”
When Pei Guo said this, his eyes were resolute, and he looked at Jiuzhen fiercely. Inadvertently, Jiuzhen looked back, his eyes were very soft. The two looked at each other, and for a moment there seemed to be a thousand words written in it.
Jiu Zhen smiled, with thousands of styles: "Even if you walk, you have to walk back!" ”
