Chapter VI - Mission Accomplished

"Steppe-"

The sound of horses' hooves gradually approached, and Sun Ce's cavalry, who had been chasing all the way, soon came to the place where Lu Yi had dismounted before. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the distance, Lu Yi, who was hiding in the quagmire, pressed his body tightly to the ground, not daring to make the slightest movement, his eyes were fixed on the cavalry, and his heart was uneasy.

"Stop!"

As the leader of this group of cavalry, Lu Yi waved his hand at a column of cavalry behind him, and at the same time issued an order to stop advancing.

As the cavalry stopped, Lu Yi's heart couldn't help but raise his throat.

He knew very well that this cavalry must have discovered something, otherwise it would not have stopped here suddenly.

As if thinking of something, Lu Yi's face changed suddenly, and he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.

"Oops!"

It turned out that Lu Yi hadn't cleaned up the surrounding traces when he was looking for a hiding place before, and if it was in normal times, it didn't matter much, but now under the heavy rain, the road ***** easy to leave footprints.

The cavalry probably stopped moving until they found the remaining marks on the road.

Lu Yi looked at the remaining marks on the road, his brows furrowed.

After thinking about it for a while, Lu Yi drove the horse under his crotch to turn around and face his subordinates behind him.

"I see that the imprints here are messy, and the thief army must have stayed here, so don't be careless about this!"

"Zhang San, I'm afraid that the thieves will use horses as bait here to attract us to pursue, but in fact, they are abandoning horses and hiding. Therefore, you take a few people here to search carefully for the remaining marks along the road, and the rest of you will continue to pursue along the horseshoe marks with me. ”

"Don't let go of the thieves!"

Hearing the order issued by Lu Yi, everyone shouted: "Obey the order!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the original cavalry of the first team was divided into two columns, and Lu Yi led one of the teams to continue to pursue along the way, and only five cavalry remained in place.

After Lu Yi's figure was gone, Zhang San and the others who were left behind showed disdain.

One of them said to Zhang San: "Then what kind of thing is Lu Yi, isn't it just to be the leader of the team, why do you give orders." He didn't want to think that it wasn't Zhang San's boss who took care of him at the beginning, but now that he has become a team leader, he doesn't know anyone. ”

"In other words, with such heavy rain and such an open and flat road in front of you, how can there be any place to hide from people!"

Listening to the compliments of several people around him, Zhang San's heart was full of pride.

In fact, Zhang San didn't like Lu Yi's arrangement, after all, anyone could see that there was no place to hide nearby.

Despite this, Zhang San still pretended to speak to his subordinates and said: "Hey, how can you say that Lu Yi is the team leader, after all, he is our boss!" ”

Glancing at the messy footprints left on the road, although Zhang San didn't think that anyone would hide here, he couldn't just go back and report to Lu Yi without probing anything.

"You guys spread out and look around to see where the footprints are going!"

"Yes, Boss!"

After getting Zhang San's order, the four people who were originally around Zhang San drove the horse under their crotch, scattered along the remaining footprints on the road, and searched around, only Zhang San stayed in place alone.

It was only a moment's effort, and the four people who had been scattered to investigate everywhere came back.

Zhang San looked at the three people who came back, and his brows couldn't help frowning.

"Did you find anything?"

"Boss, a few of us followed the footprints and found that these footprints finally turned back here!"

After listening to the answers of the three people, Zhang San nodded: "These footprints have turned back here?" It seems that this must be the strategy of the thief army, deliberately leaving footprints to confuse us and others! ”

"Boss Wise!"

"By the way, why hasn't Niu Er come back yet?"

"Boss, you don't know Niu Er, he's just a stupid big man, he must have been exploring without noticing the direction of the footprints!"

"Presumably too! Ah Da, you go and get Niu Er's ramming goods back, don't delay here anymore! ”

After receiving Zhang San's order, Ah Da Gong responded, and then whipped his horse in the direction that Niu Er was probing.

In fact, the direction chosen by Niu Er under Zhang San's command was exactly where Lu Yi was located.

At this moment, Lu Yi was lying in the quagmire, looking at Niu Er, who was getting closer and closer to him, he couldn't help but hold his breath, and he couldn't help but be a little panicked in his heart.

He didn't know if his disguise would be seen through.

Niu Er drove the horse, staring at the remaining footprints on the road.

Looking in the direction of the footprints, there were no people around, only a small dirt slope raised to the side.

"Where the hell have you gone? Why can't you see anyone? ”

Niu Er tilted his head, scratched his head with his right hand, and looked at the dirt slope not far away in confusion.

After thinking about it for a while, Niu Er shook his head, thinking in his heart to go to the dirt slope to take a look.

Although Niu Er didn't find a figure nearby, he always felt that something was wrong with the small raised dirt slope in his heart.

Just when Lu Yi was frightened and Niu Er wanted to ride a horse to investigate, Ah Da's figure appeared behind Niu Er.

Seeing that Niu Er wanted to ride forward, Ah Da looked around and didn't find a figure, so he waved at Niu Er and shouted: "Ramming, why are you moving forward without a figure in front?" These footprints are clearly the suspicion of the thieves, trying to confuse us so that we can flee on horseback. ”

Hearing the words coming from behind him, Niu Er turned his head, looked at Ah Da with a slightly cute expression, and responded, "Eh, is that so?" ”

"The boss said yes, then it must be!"

"Since it's the boss who said it, then I'll listen to the boss!"

Hearing Niu Er's words, Ah Da drove his horse to Niu Er's side and nodded at Niu Er: "Okay, the boss told you to go back." ”

Niu Er heard Ah Da say that Zhang San let him go back, subconsciously glanced at the raised small dirt slope on the road, and after thinking about it, he nodded to Ah Da and responded.

Lu Yi, who already felt that he was dead, saw the two of them drive back, and let out a long breath in his heart.

Although the two light cavalry had already gone away, Lu Yi still lay cautiously in the quagmire, not daring to move for a long time.

He was worried that the departure of the two was just a ploy of the enemy, and he was afraid that after he jumped out now, the enemy would come back and kill him again.

After a long time, Lu Yi saw that no one had returned, and he thought that the other party should really be gone, so he walked out of the quagmire.

Although he was temporarily out of danger, Lu Yi was still afraid when he thought of the scene just now, and his legs trembled slightly, unable to exert his strength.

Just as Lu Yi calmed down his panic, the system that existed in his mind suddenly sent out a prompt.

"Tick - I detected that Lu You is in a bitter battle!"

"Di - Detected that Lu You has been defeated!"

With the prompt sent by the system, the blue marker that was originally marked on the map also disappeared suddenly.

After hearing the prompt from the system, Lu Yi stared blankly at the map that appeared in his mind, and he knew in his heart that the moment the blue mark disappeared, Lu You was afraid that he had lost his life.

For this old man who watched Lu Yi grow up with his own life to attract most of the pursuers, Lu Yi's heart was extremely admired.

After guessing that Lu You would not come back, Lu Yi slowly cast his eyes in the direction where Lu You was taking the pursuers, bowed and saluted, tears couldn't help but overflow from his eyes, and slowly slid across his face.

"Uncle Lu, rest in peace!"

After wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Lu Yi's eyes radiated a determined light.

Lu Yi clearly knew that he had not escaped from Sun Cejun's pursuit at this time.

Now that the other party has caught up with Lu You and killed him, without seeing Lu Yi's figure, he will inevitably return to pursue again.

Thinking of this, in order to live up to his grandfather's expectations of himself and the sacrifice Lu You made to escape from the Lujiang River, Lu Yi decisively chose to turn around and run.

With the map hints that appeared in the system in his mind, Lu Yi was always able to dodge from the pursuing path of the pursuers in time.

After several days of hiding and escaping, Lu Yi finally got rid of Sun Cejun's pursuit and came to the riverside.

After crossing the river, it can be regarded as out of the scope of Lujiang County, and the tasks issued by the system will also be completed, but how to cross the river is a problem.

With Lu Yi's current dejected appearance, if he appears in the crowd, he will inevitably attract the attention of others, thus exposing his location to Sun Cejun.

Therefore, if Lu Yi didn't want to be discovered and pursued by Sun Cejun, he could only cross the river secretly.

After searching the vicinity, Lu Yi was lucky to find a broken bamboo raft.

Without much concern, Lu Yi quickly dragged the broken bamboo raft from the riverside into the water. Without waiting to test the firmness of the bamboo raft, Lu Yi had already stepped onto the bamboo raft, holding the bamboo pole against the embankment by the river, and driving the bamboo raft into the river.

At the moment when the bamboo row was far from the shore, the system's prompt sounded from Lu Yi's mind.

"Confirm that the host has successfully escaped Sun Cejun's pursuit and left Lujiang County safely, and the life and death mission is completed!"

After hearing that the system had confirmed the completion of the task, Lu Yi's nervous mind for the past few days finally relaxed, and he sat down on the bamboo raft.

It's just that before Lu Yi could sit firmly on the bamboo raft, the already broken bamboo raft was completely scattered because of Lu Yi's sudden stumbling.

Lu Yi was caught off guard and fell into the river.

Because of the sudden drowning, Lu Yi's consciousness began to gradually become blurred, and in just a moment's effort, Lu Yi's figure disappeared from the river, and only the prompt sound of the system continued to sound in Lu Yi's mind.

"Di - Life and death mission completed, newbie auxiliary function cleared!"

"Reward the host with 5 points of ability, and the novice weapon is being issued ......"

"The novice weapon has been distributed, and the host has obtained a low-level dual-sword weapon, the Flying Swallow Sword."
