Text Chapter 54 Traveling at night to save people, desperate to survive
At three o'clock, four figures rushed out of the woods, and quickly ran to the city of Guangzong in the night, running extremely fast, these four figures were Sun Ling and the others.
When the four of them came to the bottom of the city wall, Xu Huang smiled bitterly, panting and looking at Sun Ling and the three of them who were looking at the situation at the head of the city.
can't compare to Dian Wei and Zhao Yun, that's it. Those two are freaks, Xu Huang won't compare with them, but he didn't expect that even the lord can't compare. And looking at the situation, the lord seems to have been following the footsteps of the two of them without falling, thinking of this, Xu Huang couldn't help but feel a little emotional. When he first entered the sword camp, the lord's strength was not as strong as it is now. With the passage of time, the strength of the lord has improved to this point. After going back this time, I will definitely practice martial arts diligently, Xu Huang said secretly.
As for Xu Huang's abnormality, because the night was too dark, Sun Ling and the others did not find it. At this moment, Sun Ling and the two of them are studying how not to be discovered, and go up to the Guangzong city wall, which is more than five zhang high, which is equivalent to nearly twelve meters in later generations, which makes Sun Ling a little worried. In the future, we must build a batch of hooks and cables for everyone in the Badao Battalion, Sun Ling thought viciously.
"Lord, tie the halberd of the old man with a rope and throw it to the city wall." Dian Wei took out his double halberd, shook it in front of Sun Ling, and said softly.
Belch.. Dian Wei is still quite reliable. Sun Ling, who was looking around for tools, looked at the halberd in Dian Wei's hand, and suddenly felt that he had underestimated Dian Wei's IQ.
Seeing that the fire on the city wall was far away from here, Sun Ling threw the halberd tied with a rope towards the city, and then pulled it to confirm that it was stable, and without waiting for a few people to speak, he climbed the city wall along the rope first.
"Lord, in the future, let me wait for this kind of thing to come up and check first, and I can't easily get into danger anymore." After the four of them went up to the city wall, Zhao Yun said.
"It's all the same. Let's go, save people! Although he knew that this was Zhao Yun's kindness, Sun Ling didn't take it seriously, otherwise what would he be doing practicing martial arts for several years? It's just to do it yourself.
What do you do after you go up the walls? Of course, I found the place where Xu Lu and Cai Yan were imprisoned, I think they should still be in Zhang Mancheng's hands, but where to find Zhang Mancheng? The four people, who didn't know anything about the situation in the city, were a little worried about hiding under a private house.
"Hey, how do we start in such a situation as General Tiangong? This is the second time I've fallen ill, and I hope there won't be any accidents, otherwise you and I won't be able to save our lives. A voice was heard not far away, and it was supposed to be a healer. Seeing this, Sun Ling and the others hurriedly hid into the shadow of the house.
"Okay, don't complain, what time is it, go home early and rest. Let's think about the things in front of us, don't you have to go to Zhang Qushuai's house tomorrow to check the pulse of that pregnant woman? I heard that the pregnant woman was the wife of the hussar general of the imperial court, but Zhang Qushuai told him very much, if there is a slight mistake, without waiting for the matter of the Tiangong general, you and I will fall to the ground first. Eh, bitter. Let's go, go home and rest! The other healer of the two replied.
It's really hard to find a place to step on the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it. Sun Ling heard the other person talking about Cai Yan, and nodded to the three of them. When the two healers came to this house, Zhao Yun and Dian Wei took them in.
"A good man spares his life, we are the city doctors, not a rich family, and I have no property." couldn't see the appearance of the four people in front of them clearly, so these two people regarded Sun Ling and the others as mountain bandits and robbers, and frequently told them to spare.
"Silence, we don't want money, and we don't want life. I'll just ask you to answer, if you dare to make a loud noise, you will have to wait for your life, understand? Flashing the spear in his hand, Sun Ling threatened the two.
Although I don't know who these four people are and what they are doing. But since it's not about money, it's about life, it's naturally good, and the two nodded busily.
"What you just said is Zhang Jiao, why did he fall ill twice? What's going on? ”
"A few days ago, because the Digong general Zhang Bao was beheaded by the hussar general Sun Ling, the Tiangong general, uh. Zhang Jiao was so angry with this news that he vomited blood and fell ill, this was the first time. As for falling ill again today, it is said that Zhang Liang was killed by the hussar general outside the city, so Zhang Jiao fell ill in bed in a hurry, and I will know this later. The doctor wanted to call Zhang Jiao the general of Tiangong again, but when he thought that Sun Ling called him Zhang Jiao, he was afraid of provoking these people, so he hurriedly changed his words.
After the healer finished speaking, Sun Ling suddenly felt that 10,000 crows flew over his head, and Nima fell ill twice because I killed his two brothers? Zhao Yun and the others looked at Sun Ling in amazement, they didn't know about this matter, killing Zhang Bao and Zhang Liang, Zhang Jiao was so angry that he vomited blood and fell ill, which was an unexpected thing.
Throwing out the messy thoughts in his mind, Sun Ling only felt that this matter was a bit of a coincidence, even if Zhang Jiao did not fall ill because he killed his two brothers, Zhang Jiao would also die of illness in a few months in history, and his arrival was just a coincidence.
"Then who of you knows where the pregnant woman is just now?" Putting Zhang Jiao's matter aside, Sun Ling asked about Cai Yan.
"I know this, when Zhang Qushuai first came to the city, he invited me to the house to check the pulse of the pregnant woman." The other healer, who was no longer there and began to panic, said calmly.
At this time, the two of them also knew that the four people in front of them were probably not mountain bandits, and any mountain bandits and robbers would care about these things. And it won't be a Yellow Turban person, otherwise he wouldn't call General Tiangong Zhang Jiao. Thinking about it this way, there is only one possibility, and that is the Han army. Guessing their identities made the two of them feel a little relieved, at least their lives should have been saved.
"Okay, then you can lead us to that place, and then I will naturally let you two go." Seeing the doctor, Sun Ling was in a very excited mood.
With the two of them, Sun Ling and the others avoided several waves of patrolling soldiers and came to Zhang Mancheng's mansion.
After asking the doctor to point out which room Cai Yan was in, Sun Ling let the two go and jumped onto the wall of the mansion to observe the situation inside.
"Lord, why don't you take those two... Dian Wei made a neck wiping motion at Sun Ling and said.
"Don't worry, those two are just ordinary doctors in the city, and they won't want to go to the informant and get into trouble. The purpose of our trip is to save people, and more is better than less. Sun Ling explained with a smile.
"My lord, I have investigated clearly, except for the gate of this mansion, there are no soldiers guarding it, and there are only lights on in one room." Zhao Yun came back from investigating the situation and said to Sun Ling.
"Let's go!" Sun Ling jumped down the fence and came to the courtyard, leading a few people towards the room where Cai Yan was.
Coming to the front of Cai Yan's room, Zhao Yun and the three of them waited outside to guard, Sun Ling broke the door bolt with a spear, pushed open the door and walked in.
Because of the darkness in the room, Sun Ling could only rely on the vague form to find the bedroom. The moonlight shone on the head of the bed through the window, looking at Cai Yan who was already asleep in front of him, but there were two tear stains in the corners of his eyes, Sun Ling felt that his heart was very distressed.
"Yan'er, Yan'er! ...."Gently wiping the tears from the corners of Cai Yan's eyes, Sun Ling called softly.
With Sun Ling's movements, and the soft call. The sleeping Cai Yan finally opened his eyes, looked at Sun Ling in the moonlight in confusion, and muttered, "Husband, is it you?" Am I still dreaming? Cai Yan wanted to reach out and touch the face in front of him, but he was afraid that it would be broken if he touched it in a dream, and he didn't dare to touch it.
grabbed Cai Yan's hand and put it on his face. Sun Ling looked at the distressing wife in front of him, his eyes were red and said, "It's me, Yan'er is not a dream, I'm here to save you." ”
"Husband, woo... Seeing that everything was so real, Cai Yan hugged Sun Ling emotionally and shed tears of joy.
"Let's go, I'll take you out." Although he was very reluctant to give up the tenderness at the moment, Sun Ling knew that he and the others were still in danger now, and it was not the time. put his coat on Cai Yan, picked her up and walked outside.
"Lord, I'm afraid our whereabouts have been exposed, and there are quite a few Yellow Turban soldiers coming around this side." Seeing Sun Ling coming out with Cai Yan in his arms, everyone didn't have time to be happy, Xu Huang jumped off the wall and said to Sun Ling.
"Damn, I'm still careless." Thinking of the two healers who had let go, Sun Ling scolded in a low voice. If he had killed them at the time, he might have been able to get out of the city smoothly this time.
"It's too late to leave, there are yellow turban soldiers on all sides, and it's hard to break out." Putting down Cai Yan, Sun Ling leaned on the wall and glanced at the situation outside, then came down and said to everyone.
In fact, if it was just Sun Ling and the four of them, they might be able to escape if they broke through now, but if they added Cai Yan, who was pregnant, Sun Ling would not dare to take this risk.
"If the general doesn't mind, why don't you come in and talk?" Just when Sun Ling was anxious, a person walked out of the brightly lit house and said to Sun Ling.
"Zhang Mancheng?!" Through the light of the open door, Sun Ling could see the appearance of the person who spoke. This person turned out to be Zhang Mancheng, and Sun Ling couldn't help but be surprised.
"Oh? I never thought that Zhang Qushuai would have such a calculation, and he could have predicted that we would come to save people, and this battle was not small. Sun Ling thought that Zhang Mancheng thought that he would come to save people, so he arranged it in advance. It seems that I blamed the two healers by mistake, which can be regarded as a little consolation.
"There are Yellow Turban soldiers outside, if it's my calculations, why should I put myself in danger? If the general believes me, he will know as I enter the house. After Zhang Mancheng heard Sun Ling's words, he looked at Zhao Yun and the three of them and smiled bitterly.
"This is Zhang Qushuai's mansion, what are you going to do?" Outside the main entrance, the shouts of soldiers were heard.
Could it really not be him? Hearing the voice outside, and then looking at Zhang Mancheng's performance in front of him, it didn't seem like a pretend, Sun Ling had to doubt his guess just now.
"Let's go, let's go inside." Gritting his teeth, Sun Ling beckoned everyone to walk towards Zhang Mancheng's room.
Entering the house, Zhang Mancheng picked up a letter on the table and handed it to Sun Ling and said, "If the general doesn't believe it, just read this letter." I'll go out first and deal with the soldiers outside. ”
After saying that, Zhang Mancheng was about to walk outside, but Dian Wei saw that he was leaving, and dodged in front of him, Zhang Mancheng could only look at Sun Ling helplessly.
After opening the letter, Sun Ling smiled. smiled very happily, this is really the providence of God, the providence of letting yourself and others survive in a desperate situation.
"Dian Wei, let General Zhang go out, I have to rely on him to get out of the city safely." Looking at Dian Wei, who was full of puzzlement, Sun Ling said with a smile.
Hearing Sun Ling's change in his name, Zhang Mancheng also smiled. Only the rest of the crowd looked at the two people with smiles on their faces, and their faces were full of incomprehension.
