Chapter 504: Life Can't Help Itself
After Xie Shence reached the border of Xilin, he made a detour, cautiously avoiding two groups of cavalry, and then followed the border, making as few detours as possible, interspersing back and forth between several forces.
The strange atmosphere and the faint irritability and bloodshed in the air made Xie Shence feel Xilin's nervousness, and he pressed his head on the ground, making sure that the group of cavalry had gone away, before he slowly got up and led the horses that had been lassoed and chewed and disappeared into the moonlight.
Two more corpses, the wounds on the corpses were fresher than some of the previous encounters, and they should have been within two days. Xie Shence will not bury these dead people who have been eaten and bitten by wild mice and wild foxes, not even covering their heads. Not because he was cold-blooded enough, but because it would expose his whereabouts.
At this time, he is on the edge of the power of the two tribes, and he must be careful, any excess mercy and kindness will lead him to a place of no return. Even if it's morally justified.
Thank you Shence for continuing those until the sky dawns.
After secretly resting for an hour in a hidden place, Xie Shence got up and lurked in a different place.
Half of the horse has been walked, and the remaining half is destined to be more difficult, Xie Shence let the horse go, and everything on the horse's body, except for the nose piercing, everything else was dropped and hidden. Xie Shence was very grateful to Zhang Yuanjia for his consideration of the details, and the one he let go, including the one that had died of exhaustion, had no brand on the horse's buttocks.
In the evening, Xie Shence heard the cries of people and horses, and there was a faint sound of knives and guns colliding, followed by the roar of men, the screams of women, and then the laughter of men.
Xie Shence closed his eyes, hesitating whether to make a move.
He is not a moral gentleman, let alone Mr. XX in the Tai Academy, so he will not rush out to save the women who suffered from nightmares, but will only struggle in his heart. Maybe by the time he made up his mind, the gang had already ravaged and even slaughtered? Then you can have peace of mind.
The woman's screams echoed in the field, and Xie Shence gritted his teeth, and finally couldn't bear it anymore. Gently removed the things that might make a sound on his body, bit a small scimitar on his mouth, and thanked God for crawling forward.
The wound on his right chest greatly restricted his movements, causing him to move very slowly. The woman's voice gradually faded into a quieter, and Xie Shence frowned.
If the beast is over at this time, then at this distance, the beasts will easily find themselves when they leave.
There was a bright light in front of me, and it was the fire that the gang had lit.
Xie Shence squinted his eyes as he watched as six or seven men took turns ravaging the three women.
One of the women, is a nobleman?
Xie Shence only judged from the clothes, but it was not necessarily accurate.
The identity of the grassland nobles can make people gain enough respect in many times, such as on the trade routes, in the city of Yan Kingdom, but not in the grassland at this time.
Being a nobleman only makes the woman suffer exponentially humiliation. The nobles who are high up in the sky are ruined by a group of lowly soldiers who they don't usually want to look at all, in addition to physical torture, it is more of a psychological trauma.
Of course, this does not mean that these women are necessarily innocent. How many of the aristocrats who grew up on the grassland, even if they were women, had clean hands?
It's just that it's an obvious accident. One gang of bandits met the family of another gang of bandits, so they brazenly attacked. As the trophies of the victorious side, the fate of these women was not at all unexpected by Xie Shence.
It's just that it can't go back.
Xie Shence got closer, and then he heard a terrible scream.
A soldier plunged a red-hot knife into a woman's thigh, and the man who was simmering on her whispered excitedly and loudly and so on, and another followed suit, and the next moment another woman screamed.
Xie Shence knew that this was a common method used by steppe horse bandits to do evil, using pain to tense women for pleasure.
The screams and blood brought the women who were about to die back to life, so Xie Shence gained precious time.
One of the soldiers roared, then trembled, and then his head fell into the arms of a woman who was crying in pain with her eyes closed, and the woman was so frightened that she opened her eyes, only to be sprayed with blood all over her face, and she screamed for death.
Then the second, the third.
The fourth person reacted, and did not lift his pants in a panic, but directly used the scimitar in his hand to cut the pants that fell in the crook of his leg, and waved the scimitar monster and pounced on Xie Shence.
The knife accurately cut the wrist of the hand holding the knife that had not yet fallen, and then grabbed the knife, and then the blood flew away.
The fourth.
Three men gathered around, one of whom had a large half of his rifle in his hand and a shield in his hand.
And yet still clean.
Xie Shence stuck the scimitar into the ground and pressed his right chest to let out a big breath, and the two dying women saw that all the soldiers had fallen, so they closed their eyes.
"Divine Guard?"
The aristocratic woman, who had been insulted more violently but had not been wounded by the knife, asked in a faintly agitated voice.
Xie Shence nodded, and the woman's eyes bloomed.
Shenwei is the collective name of the Yan people for the fish pond.
Xie Shence admitted without any psychological burden, and then asked her who she was in a broken Xianbei language.
The woman who struggled to get up and tidy up her clothes was very uncomfortable with Xie Shence's speaking rhythm and tone, but in awe or fear, she didn't doubt Xie Shence's identity.
Her father was a businessman, and if Xie Shence could send her back, his father would give half of his fortune in return.
Xie Shence is noncommittal, not to believe it, and not to be completely unconvinced.
Most of the time it was the women who said it, Xie Shence was listening, Xie Shence was listening and inspecting the corpses, mending a knife on each corpse, and then taking two better scimitars, and finally picking two horses and putting their things away.
The woman hoped that Xie Shence would take her, but Xie Shence refused and asked her to go back with simple words.
The woman squatted on the ground for a long time after Xie Shence left, and then got on her horse with difficulty, and rushed in the original direction as quickly as possible.
After letting the woman go, Xie Shence regretted it. Of course, it's not because the woman looks and is very attractive, but because of the woman's identity, which is likely to cause him trouble.
It was another night, and Xie Shence estimated that one day, he would be able to leave Xilin completely.
Heaven does not fulfill people's wishes. Xie Shence was on a mountain bag and saw a tribe being wiped out. After the brutal massacre, thousands of cavalry blocked the way forward. Then came the intense search.
Xie Shence turned around without hesitation and quickly left.
Xie Shence, who was forced to return, was extremely anxious, and when he returned to the place last night, the ashes of the fire were still intact and no one disturbed, so Xie Shence judged that this cavalry should have come from the north.
Sure enough, it should have something to do with that woman!
Xie Shence's heart was cold, saying that no regret was false, but regret was useless.
Carefully investigated within the precise range, Xie Shence's activity space was sharply compressed, and he couldn't go back desperately, because it would alarm the tribes who had just walked by. And to provoke the fire of all forces and stay out of the matter by himself, Xie Shence, who has no time to know the situation, can't do it at all.
I don't know which part of the cavalry of the Duanbu, someone found Xie Shence's traces, so the cavalry of ten people and five people roared out, scaring the earth rats so that they didn't dare to show their faces, and scared the foxes into fleeing in all directions.
Xie Shence began to kill, and in less than two hours, he risked a laceration on his right chest, killing ten people, a whole team.
Kung Fu comes in handy at this moment. Maybe in the hands of Murong Duan and the old Taoist priest, he had almost no power to fight back, but against ordinary soldiers, even if it was Yi Zhixian's elite soldiers, it was still not too difficult.
Xie Shence has a very high level of understanding, but what he has learned is mixed, and the senior brother once said that he should not expect to reach the top in his life, at most he can be a master in the eyes of the world, and he cannot be outstanding and extraordinary. In fact, it is. However, after all, it is a person who has experienced several life-and-death battles and has not died, coupled with the polishing of Senior Brother and Li Zhenfan, especially the unintentional insertion of masters like the old Taoist, Xie Shence's progress in martial arts can be called fast.
In front of a small group of enemies, Xie Shence did not suffer much, but the enemy had thousands of people after all, and in the evening, Xie Shence was besieged by dozens of people, exhausted, and finally captured.
Xie Shence, who was covered in injuries, was dragged into a big tent, and a gloomy general pinched Xie Shence's chin with his hand and said, "You are the spy?" ”
Xie Shence was powerless to resist, and only hoped to be able to kill him with his eyes.
"My name is Yi Zhixi, and now I am the owner of this grassland."
Xie Shence blinked, but he was disdainful.
Yi Zhixian was not angry, returned to his seat with a smile, and said, "A few days ago, the cavalry of the Jin people came over and was killed by me. Leaving a person to torture him, I finally got the news that your Jin cavalry or rangers appeared in my Xilin, just for the son of a high-ranking member of the Northwest Army of the Jin Kingdom. ”
Speaking of this, Yi Zhixiao's smile was a little playful.
"My luck is so good!"
"Take it down and entertain it, and take strict care of it!"
Xie was taken to a small tent, where he was cleaned and bandaged by a witch doctor, and then the broth was brought by a guard.
Xie Shence didn't die in a daze, and then ate and drank enough to cover his head and sleep.
Xie Shence didn't know what time it was after he woke up, but he only heard someone talking outside.
"Have you ever woken up?"
Thank you for being shocked. He hadn't forgotten this voice, she was the only woman who survived that night!
"As my master commanded, I did not go in, nor did I hear a voice."
"Let's go down."
"Yes."
Xie Shence closed his eyes, feeling a light in front of him, and then a darkness returned to before.
The woman sat on the edge of the bed for a while, and seeing that Xie Shence didn't look like she was about to wake up, she lifted the curtain and prepared to leave.
After a long time, Xie Shence's snoring gradually started, and the woman who opened the curtain but did not leave sighed in disappointment and really left.
Later, in the evening, Xie Shence was called by Yi Zhixi.
"Jin people, I know you are Jin people, and I am Yi Zhixie." Ichigo introduced himself again.
"I'm not going to kill you, I'm going to make a deal with you."
Xie Shence thought for a while and said, "You say." ”
Life is all in the hands of people, and all the deep Tao and black Xie Shence dare not touch it, for fear that a mistake will cause the other party to be disgusted or even angry, and he will give away his life.
"Help me get on my feet."
"What's in it for me?"
"You're going to live."
"Not enough."
"Commerce! Complete smuggling! Bypass the border of the Jin Kingdom directly, and you don't have to pay a penny of commercial tax. ”
"And?"
"My friendship."
Xie Shence was silent, and then said, "I'm sorry, I can't promise you." ”
Yi Zhi was stunned for a moment, then smiled angrily, and said, "Okay, good."
Xie was immediately escorted down and put in the sheepfold.
