Early the next morning, Li Shan and Su Jinxi went on the road, although Jingmen is not far from Jingzhou, but after all, the ancient transportation was not convenient. The two rode Li Shan's high-headed black horse, Li Shan hugged Su Jinxi in his arms, and suddenly had a feeling of returning to the pearl, just like the song that sang, let us be the chic and dashing of Hongchen as a companion, and gallop on the horse to share the prosperity of the world. It's just that Li Shan didn't know that when he went out of the city gate, he had a pair of vicious eyes looking at him in the dark, showing a cruel smile.

Although it is said that it is an official road, after all, there is no road in ancient times, and it rained lightly last night, and the road is a little muddy, so it is extremely slow, but fortunately, Li Shan doesn't care about time. Su Jinxi asked Li Shan one by one about what he did when he was a child, Li Shan really didn't know how to say it, so he participated in the past and present lives and said: "Jinxi, have you ever seen the sea?" Su Jinxi shook her head and said, "What is the sea?" This stumped Li Shan, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "Let me ask you a question, is Changhu big?" ”

"Big, you can't see the other side at a glance."

"If you think of Changhu Lake as the size of a bowl of water, the sea is as big as Changhu." Li Shan can only explain it this way. Su Jinxi's eyes widened, and she said, "It's so big, oh my God." Li Shan continued: "There are many beautiful islands in the sea, and there is a place called Hawaii in the middle of the sea, the scenery is like flowers, and it is summer all year round. Maybe one day I can take you around the world and see a completely different world......" Su Jinxi quietly listened to Li Shan's words, describing all kinds of incredible things.

Just when the two of them were grinding their ears and temples, there was a rush of horses' hooves behind them, and four jujube red horses galloped away from Li Shan's side with four big men wearing black cloaks and hats. Li Shan looked at the four people who were speeding over, a little stunned. Su Jinxi asked, "What's wrong with Xianggong?" Li Shan shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I'm a little tired, let's find a place to rest." In fact, Li Shan felt that something was wrong, when the four people passed by him, one of them looked back at him, which gave him a very bad feeling, as if he was being targeted, and the four people were wearing hats, obviously not wanting to show their true faces, Li Shan vaguely saw the dagger from a few people, but Li Shan couldn't be sure whether those people were a threat to him, after all, people had passed, and they must have been too careful.

Seeing noon, the two of them also walked to this place where there was no store in front of the village and no store. The two of them were hungry and couldn't find anything to eat, when they suddenly saw a hut in front of them, and they were overjoyed and hurried over. In a lonely farmhouse courtyard, a woman was feeding chickens in the courtyard, and a child saw Li Shan coming over, and quickly shouted: "Mother, someone is coming." Li Shan smiled and said: "Excuse me, the two of us are going to Jingmen, and we feel hungry halfway, and we want to beg for food here, but it is inconvenient." After speaking, he took out a few copper plates from his sleeve and handed them over, the woman was very polite, and did not accept the money and said: "You two don't need to be polite, I just want to cook, but I just added two dishes and chopsticks, which are not worth much." ”

Li Shan learned that the family was a hunter, and the man went up to the mountain to hunt today, and maybe he might not come back tonight. Hunters sometimes put some dry food on the mountains for a night, so that they can wait for good prey. Because the prey here is decreasing year by year, many people have moved away, and now there is only one family within a radius of more than ten miles. In a few moments the woman brought a steaming meal, which was very simple, but they were really hungry, so it was very sweet. At this moment, the child came in crying and called for his mother. Li Shan asked, "Little friend, who bullied you?" The child cried and said, "There is a fierce man in black." When Li Shan heard this, his hands and feet suddenly became cold, and he quickly looked through the window, it was really the people he had met before, hiding in the woods far away, Li Shan's eyesight was excellent, but it was difficult to find if he didn't intentionally look at it.

Su Jinxi saw Li Shan's nervous appearance and asked with concern, "Xianggong, what's wrong?" Li Shan took a few deep breaths, calmed down his emotions, and said, "I'm afraid that this time, the two of us are going to suffer a big disaster." The four cloaked men we met earlier were afraid they were here to kill me. Something was wrong when I first saw them, and I felt that one of them was a little familiar, and now I finally remembered. If I'm not mistaken, it should be Du Ziteng. Those people had knives on their bodies, and they were waiting for us here, and they were sent by Li Chengwei to kill me. I have opposed him three or four times before, but he has not retaliated, I thought he wanted to use a more gentlemanly means, but I didn't expect him to do this. ”

Su Jinxi was shocked and frightened when she heard Li Shan's words, her eyes were a little red, and she said, "Then what should I do, Xianggong, or we won't go out here, and wait until this man will come and report to the official." Li Shan shook his head and said: "Now they don't know that we have understood their intentions, and they will not act rashly for the time being, but if it takes too long, they will know that we are hiding from them again, this place is uninhabited, and it is a good place to kill people, but I am afraid that they also deliberately chose this place to wait for us." If we don't leave, I'm afraid it will affect the women and children of this family even more. ”

Su Jinxi listened to what Li Shan said made sense, and there was no other way, so she burst into tears, grabbed Li Shan's hand and said, "I will die with Xianggong if I die." Li Shan said: "Silly girl, don't think so, life and death are not certain, even if I really die, I still want you to help me avenge my grievances." Now you immediately go out from behind, make a big circle, don't be discovered by them, and then run back along the official road, I will pretend to delay here for a while, with me here, they will not be suspicious for the time being. I will closely observe their actions, if they have the intention of forcibly killing me, I will ride a horse and run fast, I believe it can be delayed for a while, as long as you quickly find someone to save me, even if you don't find anyone, you run away, it is estimated that they want to kill me and weigh the consequences of the matter exposed. ”

Su Jinxi looked at Li Shan with tears in her eyes, and finally nodded and said, "I listen to Xianggong." I will definitely come back to save my husband. Li Shan nodded and said, "Without further ado, hurry up." Su Jinxi looked back at Li Shan step by step, and finally said: "If Xianggong dies, I won't live alone." With that, he walked away quickly.

Li Shanmu sent this Su Jinxi away, turned to the woman, and said, "I'm really sorry, you were kind enough to leave us to eat, but you encountered this kind of thing." I don't worry, I won't bother you. If they make a move, I'll ride my horse and run first, when the time comes. You hurry up and leave here with the child, find your man, and then if you want, you can go to Jingzhou's Immortal Pavilion to find the shopkeeper, I believe they will reward you heavily. The woman was obviously frightened, but there was no other way but to hold the child and nod her head.

Li Shan has been going back and forth in the hut all afternoon, and every time a few people hiding in the woods make a noise, they can only endure it when they see Li Shan coming out. Finally, Du Ziteng found out that Li Shan was deliberately delaying time, and said to the other people fiercely: "Then Li Shan must have discovered us, I think he is really delaying time, and a few of us will not do anything, and rush in directly to do them." One of them timidly said, "There is a woman and a child there, do you want to kill them?" Du Ziteng said: "Killing one is killing, killing two is also killing, if we don't do it now, there is no chance, after we go back, Master Li can spare us, don't forget that we all have handles, and it is a capital crime to be poked out." There's no time to hesitate, let's go. The other two also agreed, and the four of them were ready to do it directly.

As soon as Li Shan saw that they were really playing, he stopped pretending, and quickly got on the horse and ran. Du Ziteng said: "Then Li Shan got on the horse by himself, the second and third children, the two of you go to the hut to kill those few, you can't stay alive, the boss and I go to chase Li Shan, see how far he can run." ”
