Chapter 63: The Pursuers Are Coming
"Niece and daughter, you can take it easy, it's good that we are all a family." Su Zhao begged Xia Chuxin for his old life.
Xia Chuxin smiled slyly and said, "We are not a family, you and my eldest brother can be regarded as a family." ”
Su Zhao's face changed, and he suddenly felt bad, and said, "Don't joke with my uncle, after all, we are all people of Da Chu, aren't we?" ”
No longer teasing him, Xia Chuxin made a lot of effort and said: "I said uncle, you can rest assured, as long as we open the nineteenth, I guarantee that you will be fine with a single hair." ”
Where can Su Zhao put his mind down, look at her thin little body, not much heavier than that sledgehammer, although she is a practitioner, she is still a yellow-haired girl after all, she is really too imprudent, how can she be at the mercy of two children? What if she really kills her with a hammer? Even if you don't smash to death, what if you smash half to death? Thinking of this, Su Zhao was about to get up, Xia Chuxin had already noticed his abnormality, raised his foot again and pressed him down, this time he didn't slow down, he threw off his arm and waved the hammer down, and the surrounding crowd suddenly said: "Ah." Voice. Su Zhao even shouted: "Oh, mom." "Even Xia Duo is full of worries, after all, the three of them have escaped death until now, and they must not cause trouble because of a few bounties.
The big stone slab on his chest "clanged" and shattered into several pieces, and as the hammer fell to the ground, Su Zhao dared to open his eyes for a long time, raised his hand and touched his face and his chest, there was nothing unusual everywhere, so he quickly sat up from the bench and said excitedly: "Oh, I'm not dead, I'm not dead, nephew and daughter, good kung fu." ”
The people around him saw that he was unharmed, and couldn't help but applaud and cheered and took out the reward money, Xia Duo saw that the copper plate was full of broken silver and filled with broken bowls, where else did he need the face of the big young master, and at this time he couldn't wait to grow eight hands all over the field to collect money.
Xia Chuxin dusted off the lime on his clothes, hugged his fists at the crowd and said: "Our uncles and nephews thank you for your generosity, if you can return home safely, you will definitely go to the Bodhisattva to pray for the blessings of the people of Jinggu City." ”
The onlookers said, "May the Bodhisattva bless you all the way." ”
The three of them made this money neither too little nor too much, hurriedly closed the stall, and walked to the city gate, discussing how to get out of the city along the way, Ajia Toast's three-day ban was the first day, and it must be impossible to swagger out of the city like this. But there is no good way now, so I can only go to the city gate to find out the rumors.
Su Zhao got the share of the silver money and complained, saying that he had made such a big effort and only got such a small reward, and walked unhappily in front of the Xia family brothers and sisters all the way, and when he was about to reach the city gate, Su Zhao took the lead in walking out of the alley, and the Xia family brothers and sisters followed closely behind, and they didn't take a few steps but bumped into Su Zhao who was hurrying back, and saw Su Zhao's hellish expression, and said, "Hurry up, retreat." ”
The two didn't have time to ask why, so they were pushed back into the alley by Su Zhao. In this hurry, the three of them walked out of the alley again. It wasn't until here that Su Zhao stopped, leaned against the wall and poked his head out to look before turning around and saying to the two, "I saw the princess of Wusu and the young general named Tuomu." ”
"What?" The two of them shouted in unison.
Su Zhao hurriedly came up and covered the mouths of the two of them, and said, "Be quiet, be quiet." ”
The two pushed him away and stood back. Xia Chuxin also looked into the depths of the alley, but there was nothing. Asked, "Do you see clearly?" Don't you have old eyes and hallucinations, right? ”
"Hey, what nonsense, how could I be wrong at this critical moment, I definitely won't be wrong about that Princess Zhuoyi's arrogant and domineering virtue." Su Zhao said firmly.
Xia Chuxin was suddenly a little happy, he had long expected that Wusu would chase after the soldiers again, and he was most afraid that the chasing soldiers would be him, but now it seems that he was too worried. Maybe he just wanted to use the power of Wusu to restore the country when his strength was not enough, he didn't completely become Wusu's lackey, he still had the original kindness and tenacity in his heart.
He shook his head, took a deep breath, and said, "It seems that the problem we are facing now is not just Ajia Toast. ”
"Yes, yes, a stinky woman is difficult enough, and now the princess of Wusu and the young dragging general are also chasing after her, what should we do?" Su Zhao said anxiously.
Xia Duo also had a headache, and said, "Why don't we wait until it gets dark to see if there is a ditch leading to the outside of the city or something." ”
Xia Chuxin disagreed, and said: "If Wusu's people have already chased here, then the curfew will definitely be strengthened at night, and it will be tantamount to throwing ourselves into the net when we come out at that time." ”
"What do you think?" Summer Duo asked.
Xia Chuxin thought for a while and said, "I think we should take advantage of the daytime to sneak out of the city, there are many people during the day, and the people of Wusu have just entered the city, and the city's defenses are not so tight, we can disguise ourselves as other ways to sneak out of the city." ”
"Then let's hurry up." Su Zhao hurriedly greeted.
So the three of them sped up their pace and stole a few pieces of clothes that were dried in the courtyard of a family for Qiao Zhuang. First of all, Xia Chuxin tied his hair and wrapped her headscarf and disguised herself as a thin Jinggu young man, and Xia Duo became a Jinggu woman with braided hair wrapped around a headband, and in the end, only Su Zhao was left, and she was disguised as a masked old lady for the first time, but he was afraid that the people guarding the city would ask him to lift the mask, so he shaved off half of his beard, and dressed as a man, but he was a handsome Jing Gu old man. Xia Chuxin was still somewhat shocked after shaving off Su Zhao's beard, with a face similar to Emperor Chu but more handsome than Emperor Chu, how could there be so much difference between a person with a beard and without a beard?
After camouflage, the three of them approached the city gate from three different streets, and when they approached the city gate, the gate was already under martial law, and there were not only Jinggu guards but also Wusu's soldiers, and on the tall horses on one side were Zhuo Yi and Temur. I haven't seen the two of them for a few days, and they're still that nasty look. Xia Chuxin lowered his head, trying to stay calm, and he glanced at Xia Duo pretending to be shy, supporting Su Zhao in the line not far away. The two people in front of them exchanged their heads and said, "Where are these people from?" How can there be soldiers from other countries guarding our city? ”
"You don't know yet? I heard that it was the bride of Prince Usu who ran away, and the soldiers of Usu chased all the way to our city. ”
"Huh? Isn't Wusu's bride the princess of that Da Chu? How did you run away? Ah, yes, the barren land of Wusu is not comparable to our Jing Ancient City, and the princess of Da Chu is a golden branch and jade leaf, so she naturally can't stand it. ”
"That's right. However, these Wusu people are really arrogant, thinking that they can come to our Jing Ancient City to point fingers if they are the upstarts of the Western Regions. ”
"Shhhh
"I heard what I was afraid of, it was originally that Ajia Tusi was now old, and if they had been destroyed thirty years ago."
"Shhh They're looking at us. ”
The two people closed their mouths and lowered their heads, Xia Chuxin didn't dare to raise his head, and he couldn't be sure if those Wusu people were looking at this, but listening to the words of these two people for thirty years, Ajia Toast seemed to be really powerful, but how could she fall in love with Su Zhao? Yu Guang glanced at Su Zhao again, although he was dressed as an ancient Jing person, he looked like a handsome man who was middle-aged and fat, but he somewhat understood why Ajia Toast fell in love with him. Hey, I can only sigh that the years are pig feed.
Just as the three of them were about to approach the city gate, suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves behind them, and when they turned around, a group of people and horses rushed towards the city gate, and the leader was Ajia Tusi, who was dressed in red. Ajia Toast's horse stopped at the gate of the city, dragged the wood off the horse and bowed, but Zhuo Yi sat on the horse with a proud expression and did not come down.
A hint of disgust flashed in Ajia Toast's eyes, and he said, "What does Princess Wusu want to do with the soldiers blocking my city gate?" ”
Zhuo Yi snorted coldly and said, "My brother's bride has run to your city, and I will now find out of the city one by one until I find my brother's bride." ”
"Hmph, joke, why did you Wusu lose your bride and casually block my Jing Ancient City. Our Jinggu City has never had any contact with you Wusu, but even if your father comes, you have to give me some face, not to mention your little yellow-haired girl. The gates of my ancient city are for defense against foreign tigers and wolves, not for you to seal them off and block my people. "Ajia Toast said sonorously.
But Na Zhuoyi has always been domineering, how could he be willing to be overwhelmed by an old woman, and said: "Don't talk about a small Jing Ancient City, it is the entire Jing Man, it is easy for me Wusu to want to, Ajia Tusi, I see that you have been in this city for a long time and forgot to inquire about the outside market, our Wusu is now the overlord of the southern frontier of the Western Regions." I'm going to seal the gates, and don't think of a fly flying out of the gates. ”
Ajia Tusi is not a forbearant person, and waved his hand to the guards behind him and said: "The ban is lifted, the gate of Jing Ancient City will be open for me constantly, and whoever dares to stop my people from going out of the city will be beheaded." ”
The guards behind him were all Deadpools trained by Ajia Tusi for many years, and after receiving the order, they all got off their horses with expressionless faces and stood on both sides of the city gate to confront the soldiers of Usu.
"Hmph, I salute you for calling you a toast, I advise you to know a little about current affairs, open your eyes and see the situation clearly, the people of your city still rely on you." Zhuo Yi said.
Ajia Tusi is a person who has walked in the wind and waves, so naturally he will not take the intimidation of a yellow-haired girl in his eyes, and directly ordered the guards: "From now on, whoever prevents the people in the city from leaving the city will be beheaded directly." ”
The guards answered in unison: "Yes." With that, he neatly pulled out a long Hessesen knife from the broad-handled scabbard behind his back and held it in his hand.
