Chapter Twenty-Six: The Desperate Situation Moves Harder
Chen Mu's ear was knocked out by half, and his voice was not very real, his brain was buzzing non-stop, and what was even worse was that his ear was injured, which would affect his balance, his steps became staggering, his head was dizzy, and he only felt that the sky was spinning, where could he stand!
He really remembered the old Dao Lu Shengwu's advice, and he also knew that the situation was compelling, once he stopped, it would be difficult to get out, he desperately wanted to keep up with Lu Shengwu, but the figure of the old Dao was gradually drowned by the tide of soldiers!
Chen Mu finally launched a ruthless attack, he was tired of running for his life these days, but he never had the idea of killing people after all.
His father and brother are indeed dead, but these officers and soldiers also have families and rooms, and they are also raised by their mothers and fathers, the old and the young, whose life is not life?
However, Chen Mu finally figured it out at this moment, their responsibilities are understandable, but they shouldn't kill Chen Mu, since the other party is ruthless, why should Chen Mu still have the kindness of a woman?
Thinking like this, Chen Mu raised the long knife in his hand!
This knife is not as good as the Muzi embroidered spring knife, but after all, it is the standard saber of the patrol battalion, sharp and tough, Chen Mu is dizzy, he forgot any knife moves, in order to stabilize his footsteps, he remembered Lu Shengwu's footwork!
He is also learning and selling, stumbling into the crowd, with both feet with waist poles, and waist poles with hands, like a buoy with a lead sinker hanging in the river, the upper half is crumbling, drifting with the current, but it can't fall anyway!
He had no time to take care of these, let alone rejoice in it, there was only one thought in his heart, that is, to catch up with Lu Shengwu!
Relying on this magical footwork and the long knife in his hand, he finally saw Lu Shengwu's back again!
However, Lao Dao is also difficult to protect himself, he is surrounded by elite soldiers on all sides, constantly clashing forward, but an elite soldier puts a black gun behind his back!
Chen Mu was also horrified, Lu Shengwu didn't have rhinoceros leather armor on his body, if he really let the musket hit, he was afraid that he wouldn't survive!
Lao Dao is here to save himself after all, although his mouth is as cold and mean as a knife, but he can't let go of Chen Mu, coupled with Chen Mu's misunderstanding of him earlier, all kinds of emotions came to his heart, and Chen Mu rushed forward without hesitation!
"Slow down!"
Chen Mu suddenly accelerated, and slashed at the musket with one sword!
"Bang!"
The barrel finally deflected to the side, but the bullet knocked down a soldier on the left!
The musketeer was furious, and he smashed it into Chen Mu's head!
"Boom!"
It was as if the spring thunder was bombarding the soul, and Chen Mu's whole person fell!
He couldn't keep his balance in the first place, and if it weren't for the footwork he learned now, he wouldn't have been able to catch up here, and now that he has been hit the head, it's really good to be able to stay awake!
Lao Dao also noticed the changes behind him, and he finally turned his head and looked at Chen Mu who was dying on the ground.
He said that he would not stop, nor would he turn back, if Chen Mu couldn't catch up, then he would stay completely.
However, at this moment, he turned around in the end!
"Huh!"
The long knife waved and forced the enemy away, and he sandwiched Chen Mu under his ribs, as if he was holding a broken bedding roll, and then clashed outward!
He Huyong had expected it, Lu Shengwu was not a headless fly, I was afraid that he had made preparations before coming in, and after rushing out of the county prison, he went to the horse tethering post on the right, and He Huyong's horse was tied there!
Lu Shengwu threw Chen Mu on the horse's back, turned over on the horse, cut off the horse's reins, and crashed into the thick fog!
He Huyong parted the crowd and roared angrily: "Don't chase yet!" ”
The elite of the patrol battalion also came on horseback, He Huyong didn't think much about it, and led people to chase after him on the horse!
Chen Mu was already confused, jolting like a sandbag on horseback, spitting out his mouth as soon as he opened his mouth, scattering dirt all the way, acid gushing into his mouth and nose, and how uncomfortable it was.
However, these are not important, the horse's hooves behind him are like thunder, and He Huyong's pursuers are getting closer and closer!
Chen Mu couldn't tell the difference between east and west, north and south, although Lu Shengwu was old and spicy, he didn't have torches, and he couldn't tell the direction, and after galloping out of the town, he could only run to a place with few obstacles, so as not to knock over.
After galloping like this for half an hour, the horse was already foaming at the mouth, and its speed had slowed down, and the torch light of He Huyong and the others had already shone behind him!
The worse difficulty is still ahead, this horse is actually frightened, and he has no ability to know the way of the old horse, so he actually sent Lu Shengwu and Chen Mu to the Dog's Ridge!
As the name suggests, the dog's ridge is like the dog's back, with a very steep slope and a steep slope, and another meaning is that it is because of the Chinese medicinal materials such as the dog's ridge in the mountain, so it got its name.
"Phew!" Because the reins of the horse were cut off, Lu Shengwu could only loosen the horse's belly, grabbed the horse's mane, and finally strangled the horse's head, the gravel under his feet fell in a slump, and under the cliff was the river of the Pengjiang River roaring and galloping!
Chen Mu heard the sound of this angry tide, and also tried to raise his head, seeing the white waves surging under his feet, and his heart was cold.
"First...... Mr. ......" As soon as Chen Mu spoke, his body became weak, and he slid off the horse.
Lu Shengwu could only dismount and help Chen Mu up.
"Sir...... I'm sorry for you......"
Facing Chen Mu's apologies, Lu Shengwu was very bored, and said coldly to Chen Mu: "Don't be verbose! ”
At this time, Chen Mu realized that the damp heat on his shoulders and under his ribs was actually the blood gushing out of Lu Shengwu's arm!
The enemy besieged with open guns and hidden arrows, and Lu Shengwu was not a hundred, let alone King Kong, and he had already been injured in many places!
After such a delay in dismounting, He Huyong's people finally caught up, the fire was swaying, the front was desperate, the back was the chasing soldiers, and Chen Mu was also half cold.
"Sir, you'd better go...... You ......"
Lu Sheng was wearing a plain white ghost face, and he couldn't see his expression, but Chen Mu could feel that his figure suddenly swelled up, and the whole person was a lot taller, obviously he was also secretly raising his breath, and it seemed that he had made a difficult decision!
Sure enough, Chen Mu's mind was undecided, and Lu Shengwu spoke: "I, Lu Shengwu, have never been trapped in official errands all my life, how can I not fall this time, what about you?" ”
Chen Mu's heart suddenly tightened, and he didn't want to fall into the hands of officials, so he had only one way to jump off the cliff!
Don't say that this cliff doesn't know how high, just say that the two of them were seriously injured, and jumping into the roaring and rushing Pengjiang River is also a life of nine deaths!
Even if he fell into the hands of He Huyong and had a roster of shirts, He Huyong would not dare to kill him, and Chen Mu had no need to work hard.
However, Lu Sheng did not go into danger to rescue himself, if Lu Shengwu was allowed to jump off the cliff by himself, Chen Mu would be at peace in his heart, how could he survive for a long time!
"The boy is taught by Mr., and he should follow!"
"Good!" Lu Shengwu seemed to appreciate Chen Mu for the first time, and what he couldn't hide in his voice was a faint excitement and excitement, as if only by surviving in death could he stir up the waves of his life!
"Where to go!" He Huyong finally stopped behind him with his men and horses, the fire shone on Chen Mu and the others, and the musketeers and crossbowmen all raised their weapons one after another!
Lu Sheng didn't say a word, picked up Chen Mu, and jumped down!
Chen Mushi agreed to be enthusiastic, but the sudden feeling of weightlessness, as if the blood was instantly drained, his body was swallowed by the darkness, and his waking consciousness also fell into the darkness!
"How so!" He Huyong also never thought that these two people would choose such an extreme means of escape, and would rather jump off the cliff than be bound!
He walked to the front of the cliff and looked at it, like a dark abyss below, only the Pengjiang River with white ribbons was rushing, and the roaring water even drowned out the sound of the two falling into the water!
"Pipe Belt...... Look! The pacesetter beside him raised his torch and illuminated a large pool of blood on the ground.
"These two thieves are all seriously injured, and there must be no hope of survival if they jump!"
He Huyong squatted down, twisted up the warm blood soil, frowned, and looked at the river in front of him again, his eyes suddenly became fierce.
"Are you sure they're going to die?" The pacesetter was also taken aback, and replied with a wince: "According to common sense...... I can't live it...... I can't live......"
"Humph! According to common sense, who dares to break into the county prison alone! Give me down, I will see people alive, and corpses when I die! ”
When everyone heard this, their faces turned pale, but who dared to go down from this cliff!
But after all, it was difficult to disobey the order, and everyone looked for a way down the mountain, but now it was dark and foggy, and the cliff was steep, so there was no way at all, so they could only search downstream.
However, He Huyong stopped them.
"Which of you can match the speed of this river? If you find someone downstream, how can you find someone! ”
Everyone was also frightened: "But this cliff ...... The river ...... Pipe band, just a brat, it's not worth the brothers to take this risk......"
"These two thieves have been seriously injured, even if they survive, they will only have half a life, let's go downstream to find it at night, we will definitely not be able to escape!"
He Huyong scolded with a gloomy face: "A bunch of waste! ”
Saying this, he began to take off his military uniform and armor, and said to the group of people: "Go out and say that you are Lao Tzu's soldiers!" ”
Dropping only such a sentence, He Huyong nailed the long knife in his hand to the ground, took off his military boots, gritted his teeth, and jumped down in the same way!
"Pipe Tape!" The soldiers looked at each other, and it took a moment for them to come to their senses, and they ran to the edge of the cliff, shouting with all their might, but there was still half a response!
Looking at the long knife that shone on the cliff, looking at the worn military boots, looking at the cloth armor, and then looking at the abyss-like cliff, they finally understood at this moment why He Huyong was a pipe band, and they were still just a soldier after so long!
They don't understand why He Huyong has to work so hard, why this remnant of the Chen family is so important, so important that He Huyong has to fight with his life!
And they know better than anyone else that on the official documents within the government, Chen Mu is not a prisoner, because there is a county school teacher surnamed Gong, who has found a lot of students to jointly guarantee Chen Mu, and the government searches for Chen Mu, just wants him to help investigate!
And their He Guan belt was in front of Lu Shengwu, openly claiming that Chen Mu appeared on the Countess Ducati and was an accomplice in the attack on the foreigner ship!
It's just that they are ordinary soldiers after all, and the truth in them is like this dark night and thick fog, just like the abyss-like cliff under their feet, they can't see clearly, and they don't have the courage to jump down.
