Chapter 168: Rapid Escape is Not a Blessing

Masson pine is a plant that is extremely windy, and even if the wind is small, it can make a high-pitched hissing sound when blowing the needles, making people mistakenly think that the wind is very strong.

The needles of the Masson pine are dark green and dark, giving it a cool and even eerie feeling, so in the seaside area, the Masson pine is often associated with words such as ghosts and yin.

Bertrand and the others had not seen the Masson pine, but on the slopes of this cemetery, the Masson pine made a strange hissing sound everywhere, and they couldn't help but be careful.

Chen Mu has already opened the shackles of his hands and feet, although the wounds on his body have not healed, but his mobility has recovered a lot, after all, he has been practicing in the cell all day and night, and there is no shortage of good food and drink, Tan Donghua asked people to change his dressing, and the injury healed quickly.

At this time, Chen Mu took advantage of this gap and even unlocked the big lock on the prisoner car.

He's waiting for his last chance!

The atmosphere was very oppressive, Bertrand kept urging, and the team went faster and faster, but the mountain road was not easy to walk, especially the prisoner cart, which was very cumbersome, and they had to push or pull together, and the horse snorted and walked forward with difficulty.

The sheep intestine trail cut the long line into several sections, and the front ones were desperately rushing forward, but the back ones gradually couldn't keep up, and the team was out of touch.

And at this moment, a slightly familiar smell suddenly came from the dense forest, and soon, this choking smell became clear!

Pieces of burning cow dung were thrown out of the woods.

However, this kind of dried cow dung is different from those on the field, these dried cow dung emit an extremely choking smell, this smell is simply spicy to the eyes, making people snot and tears, and they can't open their eyes!

Chen Mu covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves, and ripped off the lock of the prisoner car with a click!

He knew that this dried cow dung was specially made, as long as he mashed the Chaotian pepper that was common in the field, mixed it with the dried cow dung, and burned it, it would be like this!

This pepper is the size of a grain of rice, bright red and pleasant, but it is an extremely spicy thing, and it is even more amazing when it burns!

Chen Mu lifted the door of the prisoner car and jumped out of the car to the side!

At this time, Bertrand's shouts were heard in the smoke, and the ranks were in turmoil, and the smoke of fighting and wailing sounded in the smoke, and the gunfire was loud, and the smoke of gunpowder rising from the muzzle of the gun was mixed with the smoke of cow dung, as if the hell of killing had shrouded the world!

Chen Mu has no weapons in his hands, no armor on his body, and he has not practiced into an invulnerable King Kong body, the brothers have the heart to save him, and if he can escape, it is the best reward for the brothers, he will not be vague and procrastinate!

It is also thanks to the fact that he often comes to worship the ancestral grave, and he is too familiar with the surrounding terrain, after Chen Mu jumped out of the prisoner car, he went to the dense forest next to the road!

There were constant gunshots and shouts behind him, as if someone was chasing him, bullets hissed past him, and the branches and leaves of the masson pine were broken, as if countless black and white impermanence passed by him, and he would take his life at any time!

Chen Mu had seen fierce beasts such as the big yellow cat, and he had also seen the bobcat fighting Isabella, but he never thought that his speed would be so fast!

The dense forest was full of pines and cypresses, with jagged branches, bushes, and thorny vines, but he had extracted all the strength he had cultivated in prison these days, and his hands and feet seemed to have inexhaustible strength.

I don't know if it's the bullets and chasing soldiers behind him, or the strong desire to survive in his heart, his eyesight has become extremely sharp, as if he can always see the gap that can be drilled through in the midst of cornering!

Running wildly, he was also scratched a lot, and his clothes had been torn into strips, but the gunfire gradually became quieter, and the footsteps gradually left only himself.

Chen Mu still didn't slow down, until his breathing became short, and he knew that his strength was about to run out, so he glanced back.

That glance is enough.

Chen Mu breathed a sigh of relief, because there was no one to catch up, and he was completely out of the pursuit of the foreigners!

However, the front has also become open, and in front of me is a mountain woodland, planted with crops such as cassava, and now that the harvest has ended, the fields are empty, and if you don't cross in time, you can easily find traces.

Although the cassava has been pulled out, there are one pit after another on the ground, which is not flat, Chen Mushen has one shallow foot and one foot, although he is a little embarrassed, but in the end it is with the lightness of escaping life.

However, he soon stopped, for there was no more to go!

Qingchang, the general of Guangzhou, who had been at the tail of the team, didn't know if the horses were frightened, or for other reasons, he actually fell behind!

What is so good that he is not dead is that he actually rode that chestnut horse and stood in front of Chen Mu!

Keichaga was not tall, and he was not strong, he lived like a big smoker, but he was dragging a long musket at this time, and the muzzle of the gun was pointing to the ground, just like a peerless warrior who was about to drag a knife!

His uniform was wearing a helmet, and the bright red helmet was surrounded by a high feather, which looked so heroic.

Chen Mu stopped, and he stopped.

Chen Mu saw him, and he naturally saw Chen Mu too.

There are thirty steps apart, Chen Muruo is more risky, bet a bet, and maybe run away, provided that he is sure that Qingchang has never been on the battlefield, and the speed of the gun will not be too fast.

But Qingchang, as a general in Guangzhou, is not a military attaché, and he hunts a lot on weekdays, so his shooting skills should be good.

Just like that, more than thirty steps apart, Chen Mu and Qingchang looked at each other in the air, and they both seemed to see the consternation in each other's eyes.

Chen Mu's consternation was reasonable, and Qingchang's consternation was understandable.

However, in the next scene, Chen Mu was a little incomprehensible.

Qingchang suddenly nodded at Chen Mu, and actually patted his horse and left!

He actually let Chen Mu go!

This kind of incomprehension was only for a moment, Chen Mu did not hesitate for too long, because he knew that such an opportunity was one in ten thousand and must not be missed!

Chen Mu quickly ran through the cassava field and ran into the village on the side, only to find that the village was quiet, and the women and children were hiding in the house.

Chen Mu didn't dare to stay, glanced back, and found that the men were the ones who were catching voles in the field.

Far from their villages, armed with weapons in hand, they went up the hillside!

The eyes of the children huddled in the house were full of ignorance and horror, while the women were worried and angry.

Chen Mu didn't stay long, because he knew that hiding in the village was a dead end, and he could only continue to flee!

His destination is also very clear, flee to the sea, as long as he reaches the beach, the boat of the Tan family will definitely send him out to sea to avoid the limelight for a while, this is the best choice.

But he didn't expect Bertrand to catch up so quickly!

He did not track Chen Mu in the dense forest, but led the cavalry to break through the crowd under the mountain, searching for intersections around that might be fleeing!

Because of the obstruction of the house, Chen Mu was not able to detect the approach of the pursuers in time, and by the time he found out, it was already too late!

"Stop, Chen!"

Bertrand fired with a thud, and the bullet hit the wall on Chen Mu's left side, blowing up a cloud of dirt, and debris splattered on his face, causing pain.

Chen Mu could only stop, raised his hands high, and slowly turned around.

Bertrand was very embarrassed, the horse under the seat, the buttocks were already bleeding, and there were only four musketeers behind him, one of whom had lost an ear, and the other covered his arm, but could not stop the blood flowing.

Chen Mu didn't intercede, because he knew that compared with Qingchang, Bertrand had a deeper friendship with him, but Bertrand would never let Chen Mu go like Qingchang, because Bertrand was a foreigner after all!

"Captain, I'm sorry......"

As soon as Chen Mu spoke, he banged his head into the room next to him, the earthen wall was very strong, but the wooden windows on the earthen wall were very crisp!

"Click"

Chen Mu broke in through the window, but this room was a kitchen, and Chen Mu fell into the cauldron on the stove, and he didn't cook rice.

The corners of Chen Mu's eyebrows slammed on the edge of the iron pot on the stove, and the blood flowed like an infusion, and he didn't know how many bumps on his body, but Chen Mu didn't have time to take care of these!

He quickly looked around, and there was not even a kitchen knife in it!

The imperial court once stipulated that five families share a kitchen knife, and if there is no kitchen knife, it must be registered with the government.

Footsteps sounded outside, and Bertrand and his men chased after him.

Chen Mu grabbed the ear of the iron pot, blocked the iron pot on the window, kicked it violently, and heard the bullets hitting the iron pot, clanging, one of the bullets pierced the bottom of the pot, and flew over grazing Chen Mu's cheek!

Chen Muke didn't dare to stay any longer, rushed out of the kitchen door, and arrived in the courtyard, only to find a peasant woman in a blue dress, holding a claw fence for chopping firewood in her hand, trembling!

"Sister-in-law, let's go!"

Chen Mu shouted, but the peasant woman raised her claw fence and swept towards Chen Mu!

"Thief with a thousand knives, get out quickly! Get out! ”

Chen Mu was also bitter, and the men in the village didn't know who he was called, so they took the initiative to go up the mountain to save him Chen Mu.

However, this kind of action must be confidential, and it is impossible to talk about it with his wife, and it is understandable that this woman thinks that Chen Mu is a thief.

"Sister-in-law, hide!" Chen Mu didn't have time to argue, he walked out and let the woman hide.

However, women have the tenacity of women at the bottom of the Chinese nation, and in order to protect their homeland, women can also take up arms when necessary!

She tried her best to beat Chen Mu, but at this moment, the iron pot fell to the ground with a bang, and Bertrand led people to come in through the window!

"Bang!"

A gunshot rang out, and the woman fell to the ground!

"Stop!" Bertrand's voice came again, feeling like it was about to burst Chen Mu's eardrums, Chen Mu finally stopped, he knew that he couldn't run.

Although he fought hard and had to be let go by Qingchang, Chen Mu finally stopped, could it be that he couldn't get out this time?
