Chapter 14: Escape
Han Xiaofeng can move freely after a few days of cultivation, but he can't use too much force.
On this day, Yang Xiu came to visit Han Xiaofeng, and his face changed completely.
Yang Xiuqing said sincerely, "Xiaofeng, thank you so much this time, if you hadn't stepped forward at the moment of crisis, this king might have returned to Huangquan." ”
Han Xiaofeng said with a smile: "Wang Yeji, the people have their own natural appearance, and they will definitely turn evil into good fortune." ”
Yang Xiu said: "I didn't expect the power of the artillery to be so huge that day, and if it can be successful, the city walls of Datang will be as vulnerable as paper." ”
Han Xiaofeng said with a smile: "The prince has such a divine soldier, and the king of the world is just around the corner." ”
Yang Xiu said, "In recent days, there have been changes in the imperial court, it should have found clues, we must hurry up to develop artillery, preemptively, as long as we attack Chang'an, we can be invincible after Li Zhi." ”
Han Xiaofeng said, "Don't worry, Lord Wang, Lu Chao and I will definitely go all out to develop the artillery as soon as possible." ”
Yang Xiu said, "Okay, I'm waiting for your good news." ”
Han Xiaofeng said, "Lord Wang, I'm afraid that this underground will not be able to withstand the artillery bombing again, if the entire ground collapses, none of us will be able to escape, I suggest that the artillery experiment be placed on the rooftop." ”
Yang Xiu was silent for a moment and said, "Okay, you two are now fully responsible for this matter, and I asked them to cooperate with you." Yang Liu, you take good care of Han Gongzi. ”
Han Xiaofeng said: "Thank you for your love. ”
Yang Liu replied, "Yes, Dad." ”
Han Xiaofeng said, "Yang Liu, I'm fine now, you don't have to take care of me." ”
Yang Liu frowned slightly, pursed her red lips and said, "Don't you like me to take care of you?" ”
Han Xiaofeng hurriedly said, "Of course not, don't get me wrong, it's just that my injury has healed, and it would be too bad for you to take care of it, and I will be very busy next." ”
Yang Liu said lightly, "You know I like you, you just don't accept me." Also, I am the daughter of the chaotic party, and I can understand it by being in the Qinglou all the year round. ”
Han Xiaofeng hurriedly explained, "It's not what you think. ”
Yang Liu said this, with tears in his eyes, he sobbed and ran away. Han Xiaofeng stretched out his hand to keep it, but he still put it down. There is a saying in the funeral family, if you don't love, don't hurt.
Han Xiaofeng found Lu Chao, the yard was still full of wood and iron, Lu Chao was thinking hard about the cause of the last explosion accident, and told him what Yang Xiu said.
Lu Chao said, "Now that time is pressing, if the imperial court knows about this place, we will only become Yang Xiu's funeral." Even if Lord Chen knew that you were here, the imperial court would not cast a rat trap on them for the sake of you. ”
Han Xiaofeng sighed and said, "Yes, for them, the great achievement of exterminating the chaotic party is a first-class matter. Even if Chen De is willing to save us, the other generals will not, after all, saving us is just the icing on the cake. ”
Lu Chao said, "Let's talk about your plan in detail, I don't think you are willing to make fish on this chopping board." ”
Han Xiaofeng said with a smile, "Of course, Yang Xiu has promised me that we can conduct artillery experiments on the rooftop, and when the time comes, we... ”
Barrel processing Han Xiaofeng asked the Iron Casting Department to reprocess, requiring the pipe to be thickened, and the gunpowder filling position should also be thickened to prevent another explosion. After the production is completed, they are transported to the rooftop, and Lu Chao is responsible for making the base to prevent excessive recoil when launching. Due to the fact that there is too much wood, the roof is stacked to the brim.
Yang Xiu didn't have time to pay attention to whether Han Xiaofeng wanted to run away recently, after all, such a smart person would not be easily and willingly surrendered by himself. But I can't understand why Han Xiaofeng spared no effort to help himself and save himself, if he likes his daughter, it doesn't make sense, Yang Xiu can see that his daughter is devoted to him, but he is not interesting to his daughter.
But he couldn't think of how he would escape if he wanted to escape, burrowing into the ground? It can't be, unless it's a native grandson. Breaking through the mountains? If this is the case, I, Yang Xiu, also admit it, I have paid more than 30 years of hard work, and thousands of people have dug the mountain like this. Flying? Martial arts masters are good at light skills, but they are only limited to flying eaves and walking walls. If you want to fly away from the peak more than 1,000 zhang high, unless you are a god, you can only fall into a mess.
The second test firing of the artillery was set on the 10th day of August in the third year of Yonghui, which is said to be an auspicious day set by a respected Taoist old gentleman.
On the night of August 9, Han Xiaofeng and Lu Chao were hurrying to build a fort on the rooftop to ensure that nothing went wrong. A few guards also helped, and everyone got along fairly well. The guards were also accustomed to the two young men, and they would come every day to either survey the terrain or bring some processed wood.
This rooftop used to be surrounded by trees, and it happened to be hidden in the middle. Even if there were people around, they couldn't find it, since Han Xiaofeng and the others wanted to make a fort on this rooftop, they cut down some trees to leave a road.
When Han Xiaofeng and Lu Chao were building the fort, they suddenly found that there was a pedestal missing, which was quite heavy, so Lu Chao asked a few guards to go with him to get it.
The leader of the rooftop guards said, "Master Lu, we can't leave our posts without permission, otherwise there will be big trouble." ”
Han Xiaofeng said, "Brother Lu, don't embarrass the guards, they are also responsible." ”
Lu Chao said angrily, "Han Xiaofeng, don't stand and talk without backache, if you can't complete the artillery test firing on time tomorrow, and miss the hour, don't think about it." ”
Han Xiaofeng was speechless for a while, not knowing how to answer, but sighed heavily, "Alas! ”
The leader was in a dilemma, and finally compromised, and said to a few people around him, "Okay, then you guys accompany Lu Gongzi to get it, and I'm on duty here." ”
Lu Chao and Han Xiaofeng felt that there was no problem, so they agreed.
Lu Chao took a few guards down the rooftop and walked towards the house in the dungeon. Han Xiaofeng continued to assemble the fort on the rooftop, but took out a huge triangular wooden board from a scattered pair of woods, and the wooden plank was in a certain arc. The curved triangle is mounted on an iron bracket with two horizontal beams, high above the ground in front and low in the rear. This is the flying wing in Han Xiaofeng's impression, which is also a bit like the paper airplane folded when he was a child.
Han Xiaofeng didn't know the bottom in his heart, after all, he had never done flying wings before, let alone flying experience, so he had a chance to live or die. Han Xiaofeng stopped when the two flying wings were almost assembled, and kept looking at the position of the rooftop staircase.
Lu Chao went off the rooftop accompanied by the guards, and as soon as he entered Yongdao, Lu Chao patted his head and said, "Brothers, I'm sorry, I forgot to take something, you wait a minute, I'll take it and come down." ”
A man who looked like a leader said impatiently, "Go quickly, go quickly, don't delay time." ”
Lu Chao nodded and said, "Thank you, thank you!" ”
After Lu Chao finished speaking, he looked at the rooftop and ran, and just went to the rooftop to lead the guards and said, "Lu Chao, why are you... ”
Before he finished speaking, he was smashed on his head by Han Xiaofeng with an iron stick, and he fell to the ground with a bang without even snorting. Blood flowed out of his head instantly, staining the ground red.
Han Xiaofeng threw away the stick and said to Lu Chao, "Hurry up, do you remember what I told you to pay attention to before?" ”
Lu Chao said: "I still remember some. ”
Han Xiaofeng was so nervous, but he still forced himself to calm down, and said to Lu Chao, "Okay, then you follow me, hold the middle of this beam with both hands, and use your back to support your wings to keep your balance, you must keep your balance, otherwise you will fall straight down." After flying out, your feet will step on the beam behind you, remember. Otherwise, no one can save us. ”
Suddenly, several guards went up to the rooftop and shouted, "Someone, someone is running away." ”
It turned out that a few guards waited below for a while and didn't see Lu Chao come down, afraid that the two of them would plot against the leader on the rooftop, intending to send a signal to the outside world to convene the enemy. So he went up to see what was going on, and saw the leader lying in a pool of blood, and the two of them carrying something like wings.
Time was pressing, and there was no time to learn the technique of flying wings, so the two of them rushed to the cliff with all their might, and jumped off the cliff with one kick, only to fight.
Han Xiaofeng felt himself fall down quickly, the flying wings swirling, Han Xiaofeng tried to keep his balance and adjusted the flying wings. The flying wings finally stabilized, and Han Xiaofeng breathed a sigh of relief.
Han Xiaofeng looked at Lu Chao behind him, who was also the same as himself just now, whirling in the air. "Stay calm, balance your body, and let the wing's head." ”
Han Xiaofeng felt the boundless sky, the vast earth, the gentle breeze, and the feeling of freedom was so good.
Suddenly, there was a whooshing sound in the air, and it turned out that the guards were attacking them with bows and arrows. Han Xiaofeng is not worried, the wings of the flying wings are the shield. Obviously, Han Xiaofeng overestimated the defensive power of his wings, and an arrow popped, shooting through his wings like piercing window paper, and the arrow grazed Han Xiaofeng's ears and whistled, so frightened that Han Xiaofeng almost fell off the cliff.
The two stumbled and staggered. After all, he escaped from Gufeng, and his heart was a little more steady. However, this still did not completely escape Yang Xiu's control, Han Xiaofeng really didn't believe that Yang Xiu didn't arrange any traps or secret whistles around Lishan.
The wing's take-off was a success, but the landing was still a big problem. The two of them should have flown more than ten miles away from the rooftop, how much Han Xiaofeng wished that he would just keep flying until Tai A County, but this was only a fantasy. Seeing that he was about to fall, Han Xiaofeng remembered that when he was playing at school before, in order to prevent injuries from falling, he rolled on the spot at the moment of falling in order to remove the impact.
Hearing a loud bang, Han Xiaofeng's flying wings rushed into the woods. The acceleration and inertia brought by the flying wings flying in the sky are too great, and Han Xiaofeng has already made enough preparations or still fell into a, and his leg seems to be injured, and his heart hurts.
Lu Chao was even worse, he had no experience in being thrown at all, and fell straight to the ground with Feiyi. Due to the deviation of the route, his position was a few hundred meters away from Han Xiaofeng, but it was still easy to find him, and his screams could be heard from such a distance.
Han Xiaofeng was very depressed in his heart, this back injury has not healed thoroughly, and now he has injured his leg again, which is really unfavorable. stood up with difficulty, found a branch to make a crutch, and limped to find Lu Chao, who was lying on the ground.
Lu Chao had a hole in his head and was bleeding. The pants on the top of the legs were torn and looked like they had broken to the bones. Han Xiaofeng ripped off his clothes and helped him bandage his wounds. Concerned asked, "How are you, can you still walk?"
Lu Chao said, it should be possible, let me slow down first.
Han Xiaofeng said, now is not the time to be slow, we are not completely out of danger, we must leave Lishan as soon as possible.
Han Xiaofeng helped Lu Chao find a crutch, and the two walked between the mountains and fields with difficulty, like two iron crutches.
Both were injured and had difficulty walking. Half an hour had passed, and the howling of hounds could be heard in the jungle behind them. The two of them were very anxious, they wouldn't finally risk their lives to escape and be arrested again.
Han Xiaofeng said, Lu Chao, do you hate me, if I don't take you away, you may still be asleep now. Tomorrow we will continue to eat three meals a day, and live a peaceful and stable life.
Lu Chao laughed and said, Han Xiaofeng, you look down on me too much, do you think I am the kind of person who can do whack-a-mole underground in order to be stable. I just didn't have a chance before, and I couldn't even see a chance to fight for my life, so I would do things with such peace of mind. Now that I have flown into the sky, what regrets do I have, even if I die now, I will not have the slightest resentment towards you Han Xiaofeng.
Han Xiaofeng said, "Okay, since it's an escape, let's leave quickly." Don't abandon, don't give up. Even if they are already behind me, I will have to take two more steps, one step away from the lonely mountain, and even if I die, I will have peace of mind.
Wangwang... Keep up, they're just ahead.
The two supported each other and slowly walked in the direction of Weinan. The barking of the dog behind them was getting closer and closer, and the two looked at each other and smiled, without fear or panic.
A pair of dark eyes were staring at the two of them tightly, and the flames of the torches were approaching Han Xiaofeng and the two like ghosts.
Stop, don't try to run. If I run again, I'll let go of the arrows. The shouts behind them came and went, but the two of them turned a deaf ear and still moved forward, with firm steps
Han Xiaofeng felt that he could hear the breathing of the hound behind him, and he had given up resistance.
Just when the two of them thought they were going to die, several sharp arrows suddenly shot out in front of them, and with two bangs, the two chasing guards fell to the ground. The bright sword light shook in the woods, and suddenly someone shouted, Han Gongzi go quickly, let's break off.
Han Xiaofeng didn't hesitate, and helped Lu Chao limp forward quickly.
Dozens of people were armed with Xueliang long knives, and they quickly walked towards the enemy, all of them were athletic and mighty.
The person who just shouted was Sun Chao, the commander of the guards when Han Xiaofeng was kidnapped, Sun Chao and the other guard picked up Han Xiaofeng and Lu Chao and ran outside the woods without saying a word.
Han Xiao asked, this chivalrous man, how do you know me.
Sun Chao replied, under Sun Chao, the commander of the county government soldiers. I was originally sent by Lord Chen to protect my son, and the last time my son was kidnapped while drunk, I saw it with my own eyes, but my strength was not good, so I was succeeded by the thief, and Sun was very ashamed.
Han Xiaofeng said, Commander Sun doesn't have to blame himself, it's just that these thieves are too rampant.
Han Xiaofeng didn't expect Chen De to take care of himself like this, and secretly sent someone to protect him, and he was very moved. Han Xiaofeng was uncomfortable, but he was extremely relieved, and finally escaped. It's nice to be reborn.
