Chapter 214: Reinforcements are coming

Li Yue spent a lot of time spearing fish, now the fish are almost roasted, and before Li Yun and Lin Xiao come back, Li Yue was a little worried, frowning and walking to the mouth of the cave from time to time to look out, but it was dark outside, except for hearing the roar of wild beasts from time to time, there was nothing.

Zhao Zhutou saw that Li Yue had gone to the edge of the cave several times in a row, and said comfortingly, "Xiaoyue, don't worry, Brother Li Yun and Na Lin Gongzi are so good, they will definitely come back safely." ”

Zhao Zhutou used to be particularly conceited, he also went to the battlefield when he was old, and then because he was the only son in the family, the family waited for him to go home to marry a wife and pass on the life and death of the ancestors, so he returned to the county town as a catcher, in Linzi County, he can be regarded as a well-known fierce and abnormal, and then all the way from catching fast to catching heads.

But now after seeing the skills of Li Yun and that Lin Gongzi, as well as the fierceness of Li Yue's little girl, Zhao Zhutou felt that he was so small, Li Yun and Lin Xiao could resist the simultaneous attack of thirty or forty Xianbei cavalry, and Li Yue, a teenage girl, could actually kill the Xianbei cavalry in one move, which really made him breathtaking, eye-opening, and finally deeply understood the sentence "There are people outside the world, and there is heaven outside the sky".

It wasn't until the fish in Li Yue's hand was almost roasted that there was movement outside, Li Yue got up quickly, looked at the door, and changed Lin Xiao to carry a small wild boar on his shoulder, Li Yun came in with several rabbits in his hand, and the clothes on the two of them were also in tatters hanging on the thorns.

Seeing that the two of them were so embarrassed, Li Yue asked worriedly, "Are you okay?" ”

Lin Xiao responded, "It's okay, where is this wild boar?" ”

Li Yue pointed to the other side of the pool and said, "Put it over there." Then he handed the fish in his hand to the others, and took a saber himself, intending to help with the prey.

With Li Yue, a veteran of dissection, the three of them worked together, and it didn't take long for the wild boar and a few rabbits to be cleaned up, Li Yue found a sturdy big tree branch and skewered a whole wild boar, and then found two branches to set up the wild boar on the fire and roast it.

Then they sat around the fire, eating the roasted fish, and waiting for the roasted wild boar and the roasted rabbit, without any condiments, not even salt, which was not delicious to eat, but to the hungry people, it was delicious.

After eating and drinking, Zhao Zhutou beckoned Li Yun and Lin Xiao, "You have been busy, and you haven't been able to rest for a while, so let's go rest first, let's keep vigil." ”

Even if Li Yun and Lin Xiao are strong in martial arts, they are indeed very tired from such fatigue, especially Li Yun was in a hurry in the middle of the night last night, and today he was tired for a day, and he was injured, and he was even more tired, and there was some black and cyan under his eyes.

So Li Yun nodded in response and said, "If there is any movement, call me." ”

Zhao Zhutou responded, "Don't worry." After that, they began to arrange a few catchers to take turns to keep vigil at night, and Li Yue and Lin Xiao first checked all the injured people again, and re-medicated those who had problems, and then went to Li Yun's cave to sit down in a relatively dry place inside, and closed their eyes against the rock wall behind them to rest.

When Li Yun saw Li Yue coming over, he directly pulled Li Yue to sit down beside him, let Li Yue lean on his shoulder, and asked worriedly, "Do you feel cold?" ”

Li Yue shook her head, "It's not very cold in this cave. ”

Li Yue, who heard it, said that it was not cold, Li Yun was a little relieved, reached out and hugged Li Yue into his arms, and said, "I'm tired, sleep for a while." ”

Li Yue nodded and obediently closed her eyes in Li Yun's arms.

The night had subsided, and the group was awakened twice by the roar of the beast, but because the fire had been watched, the beast probably wandered outside the cave for a while before leaving.

It was not until the next morning that everyone got up, and roasted the meat that had been left over from the previous night's meal on the fire, and when they had filled their stomachs, they sat down together and discussed the next steps.

Li Yun and Li Yue's suggestion was to return the same way directly, maybe Li Zhong had already brought reinforcements to find them, but the others had some objections, because they were afraid that those cavalry would not leave, and returning like this would be a self-defeating trap.

Li Yun and Li Yue didn't think so, they felt that the main purpose of these Xianbei cavalry was not them, and they would not waste too much time on them, so they finally adopted Li Yun's decision and returned to the mountain the same way.

Fortunately, when Li Yue went up the mountain, she left traces along the way, otherwise she would not be able to find the original path in such a dense forest.

The speed of travel during the day was much faster than at night, and the group walked for more than half an hour, and then they arrived at the place where they rested and healed their injuries yesterday, because Li Yun and Li Yue led the way, but there were no wild beasts on the way, and some wild beasts were far away.

After walking for another half an hour, they had already arrived at the edge of the mountain on the periphery of Daliang Mountain, Li Yun was not in a hurry to go down the mountain, but asked everyone to rest here for a while, planning to go to the periphery to observe first, if there were still traces of the Xianbei cavalry.

It's just that before Li Yun left, he heard a movement from the location under the mountain, and Li Yun hurriedly motioned for everyone to find a hidden location to hide themselves.

Li Yun himself jumped to the tree with light skills, jumping down one by one, observing the movement under the mountain, and when Li Yun saw that the leader was Li Zhong, who was leading the horse to find clues in the thorns, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, went back to where everyone was, and said, "Everyone come out, the reinforcements have arrived." ”

Everyone listened to Li Yun's words, and his face, which had been tense and depressed, finally showed a relaxed smile.

Even his steps were much lighter, and he accelerated his march, hoping to join the reinforcements as soon as possible.

In the middle of the night last night, Li Zhong came here and saw the corpse in that place, his face was pale with fright, and he rummaged through it but did not find any trace of Gongzi and his wife, as well as Lin Gongzi, so he was a little relieved.

But Li Zhong didn't dare to relax at all, and began to look for the traces left by Gongzi for him, and with the traces left by Li Yun, he finally led someone to find the bottom of the mountain this morning, remembering that Gongzi and they went up to the Great Liang Mountain, Li Zhong's heart was a little cold again.

When Li Zhong saw more than a dozen people appearing in front of him, and when he saw clearly that the two embarrassed people in front of him were Childe and Lady, Li Zhong rushed over excitedly and said, "Childe, Madam, is it really you?" ”

Relatively speaking, Li Yun and Li Yue were much calmer, Li Yun nodded at Li Zhong, answered Li Zhong's question, and then said, "Have you met the Xianbei cavalry at the foot of the mountain?" ”

Li Zhong shook his head and said, "We only found this side in the middle of the night last year, and we only saw a pile of corpses, and then we followed the traces left by Gongzi to find this Daliang Mountain, and we didn't see the Xianbei cavalry. ”

Li Yue listened to Li Zhong's answer, squinted his eyes slightly and said, "Sure enough, I left, I don't know which villages are going to suffer, we have to come up with a way to deal with them as soon as possible." ”

Zhao Zhutou on the side listened to Li Yue's words, and said with some disapproval, "Let's go back to Linzi County first, this Xianbei cavalry is too powerful, but I am afraid that the forty or fifty reinforcements brought by Li Zhong are not their opponents." ”

Li Yue listened to Zhao Zhutou's words, frowned slightly, and said, "Did Zhao Zhutou ever think that if we didn't eliminate this gang of bandits, how many villages would they ransack, and how many people would be slaughtered by them?" ”

Listening to Li Yue's words, thinking of the villages that were slaughtered yesterday, Zhao Zhutou was also very uncomfortable, and lowered his head and did not answer again.

At this time, Li Yun said, "Let's go down the mountain first, and then we will make plans when we get down the mountain." ”

Everyone nodded in agreement, and the group went down Daliang Mountain first, and then Li Yue asked the leader to lead the way, went to the nearest village nearby, and settled in that village first.

When the group arrived at the village, there was no trace of the village being looted, but everyone found that there was no one in the village, Li Yun asked Li Zhong to take people to take a look from house to house, and finally found an elderly man in the village.

Li Zhong brought the old man to Li Yun, and the old man was still shouting, "You beasts, my old man will die for a long time, if you want to kill him, you must be careful and respectful, don't think about what news I tell you." ”

Li Yue looked at Li Zhong suspiciously, and Li Zhong, who listened to it, said helplessly, "This old man thinks we are bandits, and he asked him to inquire about the people in the village in order to kill the people in their village." ”

Li Yue looked at the old man and asked in a gentle tone, "Old man, why didn't you leave?" ”

The old man saw that Li Yue was a teenage and delicate-looking woman, but her clothes were tattered and very embarrassed, so he relaxed his vigilance and looked at Li Yue with a sympathetic expression, and asked, "Girl, you were captured by these bandits?" ”

The corners of Li Yue's eyes twitched slightly, and she complained in her heart that this old man's brain hole was really big, where did he see that he was arrested? Can you still stand here and talk to him calmly? With a gentle smile on his face, he explained, "Old man, you misunderstood, we originally met those bandits, but then we were rescued by these officials who heard about the situation here and came to the rescue, they are not bandits, they are people sent by the government to save us. ”

The old man's eyes flickered and looked at Li Zhong, then at Li Yue and them, and then at those officers and soldiers, and asked with some uncertainty, "What you said is true?" ”

Li Yue replied with a smile, "Then do you think I look like a bandit?" I'm in the same league as them. ”

The old man looked at Li Yue carefully from beginning to end, shook his head, and said, "No, they are really people sent by the government to save us?" ”

Li Yue nodded, and the old man who listened continued to speak, "Then I'll tell you, the people in our village have fled to the county seat to report to the official, I can't run anymore when I'm old, so I plan to guard this village, and the bandits will kill if they want to, anyway, my old man is already half of the people who have fallen into the ground." ”

Li Yue comforted, "Don't worry, the old man, since we are here, we will not let the old man be poisoned by bandits, old man, can we borrow your village to settle down first?" Our officers and men were a little tired after a night's journey. ”
