Chapter 105: Saving the Strong [Next]

Zhao Zheng along the way, except for the difficult road on the wet firewood, everything went smoothly. An hour later, Zhao Zheng returned home with a bundle of wet bushes on his back.

At this time, Zhao Ji was still groggy and asleep. Zhao Zheng looked at Zhao Ji who was tired on the earthen kang, and a trace of contradictory emotions suddenly appeared in his heart, at this time he seemed to feel a little lucky, and even had a small urge to thank Xia Wuqi.

"If it weren't for Xia Wuqi who brought her tired to death, Lao Tzu really wouldn't have been able to transport these two goods out. If this is left until now......" Thinking of the rotting smell of dead corpses filling the room, Zhao Zheng couldn't help but snort in disgust.

Throwing the wet firewood next to the earthen stove, Zhao Zheng immediately started a day of "boring". Maybe it was because I didn't sleep all night, maybe I was really bored, or maybe I was consciously preparing for the night action, and it didn't take long for me to fall asleep on the kang. Time passed slowly in the snoring of the mother and son, and when Zhao Zheng woke up in a daze, Zhao Ji had already been busy around the stove, but after a while, two bowls of hot wild vegetable soup were placed on the edge of the kang.

The mother and son did not talk about sitting and eating for the time being, and said that when Zhao Ji returned to the old doctor Liu's house again, Zhao Zheng had already taken advantage of the night to sneak out of the grass house, and after a while, he reappeared in the ruins.

"Master......"

As soon as Zhao Zhengjiao stepped into the courtyard, someone shouted softly, and then saw Sun Sheng running over from the shadows.

"Master......" Sun Sheng knelt on the ground and bowed his hands.

Zhao Zheng looked at Sun Sheng who was kneeling on the ground in surprise, "You...... How do you know if you're here for a teacher, and if you're not? Zhao Zheng said in surprise.

"Hey...... As soon as you entered the courtyard, Master, the disciples saw it! Sun Sheng replied a little arrogantly.

Zhao Zheng couldn't help but look ecstatic when he heard this, and said excitedly after helping Sun Sheng up: "In this way, you know things at night as much as day?" ”

Sun Sheng shook his head and said, "It's not as powerful as Master said, it's just that you can see more clearly and farther than ordinary people at night!" ”

"That's enough! That's enough! Hahaha...... Sheng'er, it looks like you're going to have to sing the highlight tonight! Zhao Zheng couldn't hold back the ecstasy in his heart, and excitedly slapped Sun Sheng "popping" as he spoke.

When Sun Sheng heard Zhao Zheng say this, his face immediately flushed with excitement, "Master, the apprentice will definitely be a fool of his heart, do his best for the master, and die!" ”

Sun Sheng's words made Zhao Zheng's heart warm, he wanted to say something but didn't know how to say it, so he had to change the topic meaningfully: "What about your second senior brother?" ”

"Back to Master, the apprentice just changed the medicine for the second senior brother, and now he has fallen asleep." Sun Sheng replied.

Zhao Zheng was not surprised at all when he heard this, he knew that it would not be difficult to find a few pieces of silk cloth and anti-wound medicine in the city with Sun Sheng's methods. Shen Lang had already fallen asleep, and Zhao Zheng didn't want to waste time here, so he looked up at the moonless night sky that was getting darker and darker, and ran straight out of the courtyard. Seeing this, Sun Sheng didn't talk nonsense, and immediately followed closely.

In the night, two small figures, one in front and one behind, shuttled quickly through the streets and alleys, and in less than half an hour, the two came to the foot of the city wall. Unlike usual, Zhao Zheng did not stop at the foot of the southern city wall at this time, but at the southeast corner of the capital. Zhao Zheng pointed to a crack on the city wall like a hideous scar and said softly, "This is it!" ”

The crack that Zhao Zheng refers to was there as early as the Qin and Zhao wars a few years ago, and after years of disrepair and years of heavy rain, the gap became bigger and bigger, big enough to allow a child to enter and exit at will.

Sun Sheng looked in the direction pointed by Zhao Zheng, and saw that on the majestic but devastated city wall, a crack a man wide ran through the entire city wall from top to bottom. Sun Sheng fixed his eyes and glanced into the gap, and then said confusedly: "This gap doesn't seem to be able to go straight out of the city, right?" ”

Zhao Zheng shook his head with a wry smile when he heard this, and replied: "The meaning of being a teacher is that we can climb up from here!" As he spoke, he pointed up with his hand in the direction of the gap and continued: "This place is in a remote area, few people come, and there is also a crack on the other side of the city wall, so we can get down from there!" ”

"Oh......"

When Sun Sheng heard Zhao Zheng say this, he couldn't help but admire Zhao Zheng a little more.

Although the width of the gap is enough to accommodate them, after all, the city wall is more than ten meters high, and the wall is soft and slippery, so it is not easy to climb, and even if you miss it, your life will be in danger. However, the reason why Zhao Zheng chose to leave the city from here was not only to effectively avoid the Zhao officers and soldiers on the city wall, but more importantly, out of trust in Sun Sheng's ability. Zhao Zheng intuitively judged that the kid in front of him who was about the same age as the prime of life should have the ability to conquer the "majestic" broken wall in front of him. And when he saw that Sun Sheng's face was not timid, he was even more sure in his heart.

Zhao Zheng saw that Sun Sheng's face was not timid, and he didn't talk nonsense, and after taking out the Qin short knife from his waist, he plunged into the gap. The gap was soft and slippery, and Zhao Zheng struggled to climb up the wall while he chiseled the wall with a dagger, while Sun Sheng followed closely behind.

The earthen wall of more than ten meters was not so easy to be conquered, and Zhao Zheng and Sun Sheng tossed in the cracks of the wall in the dark for more than half an hour before climbing up to the battlements of the city wall through the cracks. Because they were afraid of being detected by the Zhao army in the city, although the two were a little tired, they still ran to the other side of the city wall without stopping. As the saying goes, "It's easy to go up the mountain but hard to go down", the two of them grabbed the rain-soaked earthen wall and carefully groped their way down. Fortunately, there was no danger along the way, and after more than an hour, the master and apprentice finally got down the city wall and left Handan City.

At this time, the night was very deep, Zhao Zheng gasped and looked at the beautiful starry sky, and he was a little distracted for a while. Sun Sheng gasped while wiping the dirt on the short knife with the corner of his clothes, "It's midnight at this time, Master, are we still in time?" ”

Zhao Zheng grinned when he heard this: "Yousheng'er's 'Starlight Night Vision Device', it's difficult for us to think about it!" ”

"Starlight night vision?"

Where had Sun Sheng heard of such a new word, and then the second monk looked at Zhao Zheng in confusion. Zhao Zheng didn't explain when he saw this, he just blindly "giggled" at himself.

The master and apprentice rested for a moment under the base of the city wall, and then walked to the north of the base of the city wall. The main city of Handan was divided in two by the Qinhe River, and when Zhao Zheng and Sun Sheng crossed the Qinshui and left the city behind, the two ran all the way north. Although Zhao Zheng concluded that the place he was going to tonight was his hometown in his previous life, although he knew the general direction of the destination, after all, the vicissitudes of life and things were wrong, so in order to avoid mistakes, he followed honestly. In order to save time, Sun Sheng did not choose to walk along the main road, but took the road and ran straight towards the direction of the "isolated island", and more than two hours later, Zhao Zheng and the others were already on the periphery of the "isolated island". Thousands of meters to the north of the two of them, three black mountain shadows connected to the east and west stood quietly between heaven and earth......
