Xincheng County is in the south, in the middle of the lake.

The sun has already sunk under the western mountains, the whole land is shrouded in darkness, and the lakes and mountains stretch for dozens of miles to be deserted.

The sound of dead silence around him, and the occasional cries of unknown birds and beasts, set off the atmosphere of silence, which made people feel a little creepy.

In such an environment, in a cave deep in the mountain forest, there was a faint fire.

Zooming in closer, after passing through a period of darkness, there is already a bright color in front of you, and in the center of the cave, a small campfire is constantly flickering, radiating light and warmth to the surroundings.

Seven or eight figures sat around the fire, looking at the flickering flames, and no one spoke, just lowered their heads and kept in a daze.

This group of people is the Fang Qifo and his party who fled from Hangzhou City.

After leaving Hangzhou, they and his party came south overnight, not daring to delay at all, and had to carefully avoid the search and arrest of those officials and soldiers along the way, and finally sneaked into the vast lake and mountain.

Over this lake and mountain, it is difficult to walk a hundred miles, and then you will reach the boundary of Wuzhou, and at that time, your party will not have to worry about the problems of the official army, because that Wuzhou should have already fallen into the control of your side at this time.

Although they have been absconding according to the planned route for the past few days, and they are safe and sound along the way, but just like this, they are also a little embarrassed, but there is no shame on the faces of Fang Qifo and Yan Yan and others, on the contrary. Their mood still seemed to be very good, because they had successfully placed Yue Fei together.

Now that Yue Fei. Even if you already know the news of the fall of Wuzhou, you can mobilize the army to go back. At this time, I am also a little weak, after all, the grain and grass consumed by the army alone are not so simple to raise.

Although the current situation seems to be back to before, but in this twist and turn, don't look at the loss of a lot of manpower on your side, but in the same way, eating a large part of the Southern Army is already a big victory. That Yue Fei this time can be said to be hurtful.

Just when the group was silent, a sound of stumbling footsteps came from outside, and the men who were sitting next to the fire and were originally silent stood up from the ground in an instant, their alert eyes flashed a little vigilant, and slowly drew their respective blades from their waists, and then looked in the direction of the cave door.

The sound of footsteps came from far and near, very quickly. Two sturdy figures appeared in front of everyone, carrying a few pheasants and hares in their hands, which were the guards who had been sent out to find food.

Seeing this, everyone gradually relaxed. The vigilance he had just had was gone, and he sat down again.

The pheasants and hares had been cleaned up when they were outside. At this time, they pierced it with branches. Then they were set up on top of the campfire and roasted continuously. At this time, Fang Baihua also carefully took out an oilcloth bag from his arms, and after opening it, it was a bag of refined salt from Baihuahua.

"Save on it!" Fang Baihua said as she handed the wrapped refined salt to the hands of the man who was roasting pheasants and hares, and the man answered, with a little embarrassed smile on his face, and then took it and carefully sprinkled it on the food that was being roasted.

After a short time, the curling aroma began to spread in this cave, but the faces of everyone in the cave could not find half of the greedy look, not only that, but even the faces of many people had a little disgust.

Anyone who has eaten barbecue for many days in a row can't stand it at this time, even if the fragrance is strong, it can't arouse half of the appetite.

However, when the barbecue was finished and distributed to everyone, they still silently gritted their teeth and swallowed it, not for anything else, just to survive.

The order of the vigil was arranged, after eating this almost unpalatable barbecue, there was no communication and entertainment, everyone lay in the cave one after another, closed their eyes, tomorrow at dawn, they had to continue to hurry, although it was only a day's journey from Wuzhou now, but before they arrived in Wuzhou, they could not say that they were safe.

"Ahem, ahem!"

Yan Yan was lying on the ground, involuntarily letting out a violent coughing sound, and after hearing it, Fang Qifo, who was lying beside him, turned his head and asked with concern, "Are you okay?" ”

"I'm fine, Uncle Seven!" Yan Yan squeezed out a calm smile at Fang Qifo, but no one would feel that the truth was really as light as Yan Yan himself said after seeing his pale face.

However, seeing that Yan Yan closed his eyes and didn't want to communicate much, Fang Qifo frowned, sighed secretly in his heart, and then turned his head, opened his eyes, and looked at the cave above his head, with a look of worry in his eyebrows.

Originally, Fu Yan's health was not good, it was the root of the disease left by his youth, but in the past few days, it seems that it has been aggravated a lot, Fang Qifo himself is also a rough and shallow medical skill, and he has taken his pulse in his spare time, obviously the situation is not very optimistic.

Forget it, do your best, and listen to the destiny of heaven! Fang Qifo sighed in his heart again, and then forced himself to close his eyes, and he didn't know when he fell asleep.

Nothing was said all night.

As soon as it was dawn, everyone put out the bonfire, packed their bags, and hurriedly set off.

When passing a stream, everyone washed their faces and felt the coolness on their faces, and the people who were still a little sleepy-eyed finally became energetic.

Carefully avoiding the officers and soldiers who were checking and pursuing, they were safe and sound along the way, and there was no danger, and in the evening of the day, they finally went out of Hangzhou and entered the boundary of Wuzhou.

After finding a home for the night, having a beautiful dinner, and worrying for many days, today I can finally sleep peacefully, and I no longer need to worry about encountering any officers and soldiers who are chasing them.

The next day, after a breakfast that had been called a luxury for the past few days, everyone embarked on the road to Wuzhou.

Wuzhou City is in the southwest of Wuzhou, there is still a long distance from here, and what they have to do is to go to Pujiang County, which is the closest to here, you know, in the planning of Fang Qifo and others, at this time, the entire Wuzhou should be under the control of the Holy Sect, after arriving at Pujiang, get a few fast horses, and then rush to Wuzhou City, it will be much faster.

When it was close to noon, Pujiang City was already standing in front of everyone, the city gate was closed, and from a distance, you could still see on the city wall, there were some members of the sect wearing the white robes of the Holy Sect, holding spears in their hands, looking like they were heavily guarded.

Seeing this, everyone's hearts couldn't help but feel a burst of surprise, the plan was indeed successful.

One of the guards came to the gate, raised his head, and shouted loudly to the tower, "Open the gate!" ”

"Who's down there!" Fang Qifo and the others fled all the way, and the clothes on their bodies naturally did not have the chic they had on weekdays, and they looked a little embarrassed, so it was normal for those sect members guarding the city not to recognize them.

In fact, in this era of underdeveloped communication, many sect members only knew the names of the middle and high levels of the sect, but they didn't recognize their appearance, even if Fang Qi Buddha was standing here, it was not strange that they couldn't recognize it.

"This is Prime Minister Fang and the Protector of the Dead, we have just returned from Hangzhou, open the city gate quickly!" The guard said, pulling out a token and waving it in his hand.

After seeing his movements, it didn't take much effort, and a bamboo basket tied to a rope descended from the castle tower.

The guard put the token in the basket and watched the bamboo basket being pulled up, and soon, he heard a few respectful voices from above: "Please also ask Prime Minister Fang and the Death Protector to wait a while, let's go down here and open the city gate." ”

After the guard heard this, he returned to Fang Qifo's side, and in a short time, the originally closed city gate slowly opened one of them.

Seeing this, Fang Qifo waved his hand at everyone, and led them into the city with a meteor.

As soon as I entered the gate, I saw the two sides of the city gate, those sect members holding spears in their hands, with a bit of vigilance in their eyes, thinking that this Pujiang City had just been occupied, and they were still guarding against the counterattack of the official army, after all, this Pujiang City was the front line between Wuzhou and Hangzhou, if Yue Fei's army came from the north, the first one to bear the burden would be this Pujiang City.

Seeing everyone's cautious appearance, Fang Qifo felt very satisfied in his heart, and while walking, he also asked in a deep voice to the sect member who had opened the city gate for them: "These days, have any officials and troops come to attack the city?" ”

"Prime Minister Hui, although he didn't attack the city, he has also seen the shadows of some officials and soldiers!" The sect member lowered his head and replied in a deep voice to Fang Qi Buddha.

"Oh, you must guard the city gate carefully, and don't let those officers and soldiers sneak into the city!" Fang Qifo commanded in a deep voice to the sect members.

The sect member responded, and then didn't say anything more, just lowered his head and followed Fang Qifo's side.

"By the way, who do you rule now? Hurry up and take me to meet him! As he continued to walk forward, Fang Qifo asked as he faced the sect member.

"Our general is ......" Hearing Fang Qifo's words, the sect member immediately whispered back, but the more he said the end, the lower his voice became, and Fang Qifo almost didn't hear what he said.

"Who is it?" Fang Qifo subconsciously stopped, turned his head, looked at him with some confusion, and asked puzzledly.

Hearing Fang Qifo's words, the sect member also stopped, and then slowly raised his head, but there was a bit of a fierce look in his eyes.

At the same time, Fang Qifo's ears also sounded Fang Baihua's exclamation: "Third brother, be careful!" ”
