151 trapped
The screams were accompanied by a rush of running, and the people who were chatting in the hotel were either screaming and fleeing or howling in anger, and a large group of leather-armored iron people armed with axes, bows and arrows suddenly rushed in from outside the door, and then began to kill without saying anything.
Those looking for weapons, those in armor, those hiding under tables, and those running upstairs came so suddenly that everyone was caught off guard.
The innkeeper here obviously didn't lie before, there was indeed a group of iron people in the forest outside the hotel, but he didn't seem to expect that the group of iron people would suddenly run into his home, and even when the killing occurred, he was the first to be killed by an axe.
In such a chaotic situation, the two people sitting in the back position were fleeing towards the second and third floors of the hotel at this time, because the boy's legs were short, so he was suddenly stopped and hugged on his shoulder, and the big woman quickly climbed the wooden stairs with a tense face, and the bumps made Lan Li sick to his stomach.
Thankfully, the wooden staircase of the three-story inn was not as long as the castle tower, and in a few moments they reached the top floor of the inn and scurried into an open room.
At this time, there was a sleepy-eyed middle-aged businessman in the room, and when he saw a man with a child break in outside the room, he hurriedly asked.
"Friend, what's going on outside?"
Mei Ge didn't answer, but punched the opponent to the ground, and then added a kick to knock him unconscious, and only after a series of actions did he put Lan Li down.
"Hide here for the time being, and I'll find a way to break out." She said.
"Aren't you going to give me to the Iron Min?" Lan Li "kindly" reminded the other party: "There is a group of people outside at the moment. β
"Shut up, boy, now is not the time to laugh!"
The other glared at the boy, reflexively closed the door, and interpolated it from within.
The sudden group of attackers outside was numerous, and at the same time there were bows and arrows, and she was not sure to break through herself, let alone carry a burden. At the same time, although she has the idea of trading with the iron people, she does not want to talk to those who only know how to follow orders, and she is unprepared to make rash contacts, and it is impossible to say whether it will be a trade or a robbery.
Lan Li on the side still remained calm, and he didn't seem to be afraid that the danger at hand would endanger his own safety, the main thing was that his identity was a "protective umbrella", no matter who was in his hands, he couldn't be killed at will.
And even if the Iron People capture themselves, won't they have to go back to the sea? The difference between him and the person next to him is just relatively familiar and unfamiliar.
However, Lan Li did not wait to do nothing, and looked around, and found that the house was a boxy wooden room, with simple and dirty beams on the top of the head, a bed made of straw mats in the corners of the wooden floor, and no furniture existed, except for a narrow curtain window on the innermost wall, and now the curtain was rippling slightly with the breeze outside the window.
After squinting her eyes, Lan Li looked sideways at Meg.
"What are your plans?"
"Wait for the group to go upstairs and disperse." The woman replied, "I'll break through again." β
"You're not wearing armor."
Lan Li reminded her, "And it's not the same as the last time I was captured, now no hostages threaten you with them. β
"A bunch of mongrels can't help me." The rebellious voice was full of arrogance, but Lan Li was noncommittal about it.
In addition to being good at naval warfare, the people of the Iron Islands are also famous for their individual strength in the Seven Kingdoms, without him, the folk customs are like this, and the living environment of the Iron Islands has been very cruel since childhood, and it is said that the women there can pick up an axe to defend against foreign enemies in times of war.
"I have a proposal." Listening to the louder and louder screams outside the door, Lan Li spoke, "This window is so small, even if they surround it, it is impossible for them to guard it. I'm going to climb out of this window, so you're going to hide here, and then look for an opportunity to break out, and we'll meet in the stables. β
"You want to take advantage of the opportunity to escape?" The other party looked at him suspiciously.
"Where can I run in this situation?"
Lan Li asked rhetorically: "Or are you sure to break through with me with a burden?" β
"That's not going to work, I thinkβ" The other said, but the words were paused, for she clearly heard the sound of killing approaching the corridor outside the door, so she changed her mind and gritted her teeth, "That's it, boy! But I have to warn you, you can't run away on your own on horseback at such a young age. β
After she finished speaking, she turned around and stared at the door, and Lan Li didn't hesitate at all, turned around and quickly ran towards the window that had no shelter.
The dirty curtain was a little sticky when I grabbed it, and when I lifted it, I looked outside, and the dim moonlight shrouded the backyard of this hotel, the night breeze was gentle, the weeds were swaying, and many clothes drying on the clothesline were full of life, but what happened in the hotel was obviously not the slightest smell of peace.
There were two sturdy ironmen in rusty silver chain mail and blood-stained axes standing on the doorknob, and there were several corpses at their feet, but there was no one else outside.
However, the two gatekeepers did not stare at the top of their heads at this time, but looked inside the door, obviously paying attention to whether anyone ran out of the door as a breakthrough, but they did not expect that a child would come out of the narrow window.
In fact, the small window on the third floor of the hotel is a difficult problem even for children, and the action of squeezing out makes Lan Li's face turn a little red, but fortunately he managed to climb out without causing much movement.
The probe carefully stepped on a protruding log outside the window, and looked at the two people who were unaware of it not far from the diagonal down, Lan Li took a hidden breath, and then moved slowly with his back against the building.
Although his immature age limits his strength, it also makes him light and dexterous, and at the same time, his special pedigree also gives him much more strength than a normal child, so although the surface of this building is not full of footing like a game in his memory, he is still gradually moving away from the sight of the two iron people guarding the back door below.
The tense nerves kept his mind focused, and he ran parallel to the window over one similar edge to the other of the wooden edge, and finally after narrowly turning a corner, he completely broke away from the hotel backyard area and came to the side.
The sounds of panic in the buildings behind them were palpable, with the screams of women, the cries of children, the roars and screams of adults, and the laughter of the Iron Folk as they killed......
All sounds eventually faded away as the black-haired boy jumped off the building, where he deftly landed on top of a mud wall, then regained his balance and ran a few steps on the wall before jumping down the corner into another courtyard.
This is a backyard next to the hotel building, and it is also the place where the stables are located, and the shouts and gasps behind it are faintly audible, but the chirping and wheezing of the horses are faintly heard, and as far as the eye can see, the long thatched-roof building itself is at the end of the yard, which is the main body of the stables.
However, just after Lan Li rushed in through the back door of the stable, he suddenly found that there were two young iron people inside at this time!
When Lan Li ran in, the two men also looked at each other.
