Bai Zhi hugged the boy, and the boy pushed Bai Zhi away with a blank face, but Bai Zhi's strength was too strong and his body was too strong to push away.

Nanqiang opened the curtain and glanced at Huaiqing who had already climbed in front of the carriage, and just wanted to get into the carriage, but was pulled out by Nanqiang.

The clouds were thick, there was no moonlight, the lamps hanging in front of the carriage were shaking, and the woods rustled.

Huaiqing stared at Nan Qiang's arm, and Nan Qiang, who was standing under the carriage lamp, was pale, and his lips were cracked and clumped.

"You can't do it?" Huaiqing looked at Nanqiang worriedly, more worried that Nanqiang had fallen, and he would die with him.

Nanqiang looked at Huaiqing in annoyance and kicked Huaiqing.

Huaiqing touched his legs with a whimper, looking at the resentment of his family beating his own family.

Huaiqing continued: "The poor road has already been counted, you can live at least sixty-five, as long as you can pass this level, let's go to the northeast, it is the birth gate." ”

"What if you can't get by?" Nanqiang said casually.

Huaiqing had a bitter face: "If you can't get through, then it's a fork in the road." Today's little life is here. ”

Nanqiang glanced at Huaiqing's cowardice: "With me, you can't die." ”

When Huaiqing came back to his senses in a daze, Nanqiang had already rushed into the crowd, and then the sound of swords pierced into his ears.

After a while, Huaiqing saw that the situation was not good, and hurriedly turned back and drove the carriage to escape.

The horse stood still and did not move, Huaiqing finally knocked it on the horse's back with a stick, and the horse neighed, raised the horse's hooves, and rushed into the crowd in fright.

Huaiqing rode his horse to Nanqiang, and the horse suddenly changed its course halfway, and Huaiqing shouted.

Huaiqing looked at Nanqiang, who was far away, surrounded by a group of people, his face sank, and the rope in his hand was pulled, and the horse deviated from Nanqiang.

Bai Zhi opened the curtain of the carriage, and when she saw this, she hurriedly shouted: "Childe! Stop it! ”

Nanqiang was holding a long whip in one hand, a little physically exhausted, and dizzy.

When Nanqiang staggered and was about to fall, a group of people rushed forward one after another.

Bai Zhi was so anxious that she burst into tears: "Dao Chief, stop!" ”

Huaiqing clenched the rope in his hand, suddenly let out a long sigh, tightened the horse rope, and jumped up lightly.

Huaiqing held Nanqiang who was about to fall, Nanqiang's face was covered with blood, Huaiqing glanced around, and Bai Zhi rode over.

At the critical moment, a sharp arrow flew out of the woods, and one person fell to the ground one after another.

Huaiqing looked at the dark forest, his eyes tightened, and he jumped into the carriage with Nanqiang and ran into the depths of the forest.

Bai Zhi saw Nanqiang, who had a cut behind him, and cried like a tearful person.

The carriage drove all the way, and it was not until midnight that it found a ruined temple to rest.

Nanqiang was seriously injured and the fever did not go away at night. Bai Zhi was busy, and carried Nanqiang into a broken chamber to give Nanqiang good gold sore medicine.

Huaiqing glanced at the boy and handed him a kettle. The boy looked at Huaiqing with wary eyes, Huaiqing shrugged his shoulders, took the kettle and drank it with his head held high.

"You kid, you shouldn't die." Huaiqing looked at the boy playfully.

An imperceptible look of surprise flashed in the boy's eyes, and then his eyes were filled with sadness and gloom.

Huaiqing sighed: "Have a good rest, you have to hurry tomorrow morning." ”

In the early morning of the next day, Nanqiang woke up with a fever that faded, his body was weak and weak, and he had a splitting headache when he sneezed.

Huaiqing fed the horses early in the morning, looked at Nanqiang, and smiled: "Awake?" ”

Nanqiang looked at Huaiqing with disdain and leaned on the threshold: "Did you want to leave me alone there last night, and you ran for your life privately?" ”

Huaiqing took the grass in his hand, his face was shocked, and he looked annoyed: "You conscienceless Wang Ba calf, last night, I sacrificed my life to save your little life!" ”

Nanqiang raised his hand and looked at Huaiqing, who was a little weak.

"I wrote it down." After Nanqiang finished speaking, he turned around and stepped into the broken temple.

Huaiqing looked at Nanqiang's back and shouted: "You're welcome, you're welcome, the poor road is also uneven, draw a knife to help." You are a noble person of the poor road, how can the poor road watch you die. ”

Nanqiang lowered his head and sneered, turned his head and glanced at Huaiqing, who was immediately silenced.

When the boy saw Nanqiang, he glanced over and sat there in a daze.

Huaiqing patted the dust on his body, straightened his hair crown, and strode into the temple.

Nanqiang sat across from the boy, and the squeaks of rats in the temple walked around the wall.

It rained for a long time, and the air was filled with a musty smell and a rotten smell.

Nanqiang looked at the boy like a porcelain doll, with a fair complexion and a high nose, and he would be a beautiful man in the future.

"Why are they hunting you?" Nanqiang opened his mouth quietly.

Outside raindrops fell on the broken water tank, tick knock knock......

The boy half rang, not in the slightest sign of reply.

Huaiqing lifted his robe and sat cross-legged: "He is used to sacrifice the river holy boy, and the woman last night was the holy woman." ”

Huaiqing pulled the boy's sleeve, and the boy covered the tattoo on his wrist in horror.

Nanqiang looked at the tattoo, the group that chased her last night had this tattoo on their faces.

Bai Zhi was in a fog and vague: "Holy Child? ”

Huai Qing glanced innocently: "Xuzhou City has always used children and virgins to sacrifice to the river god. This year, it has rained heavily in Xuzhou City, and the river has overflowed the river embankment, and their sister and brother should be the Holy Son and Holy Daughter of the Shenpo Temple in Xuzhou City this year to sacrifice to the river god. ”

Huaiqing glanced at the boy, stretched out his hand to check his pulse, and looked strange.

"The holy children in Xuzhou City are all taking Gu worms all year round, if you don't take the antidote within three days of swallowing Gu worms, you will inevitably die of rotten stomachs, even if your sister and brother don't sacrifice to the river god, they will not escape death, besides, with the two of you, how can you escape the heavily guarded temple of the goddess?"
