Chapter 008: Half a Baked Cake
Sure enough, as Xie Buming expected, the route of the Northern Wei soldiers to set up an ambush and pursue was along the road of Chen Ming Pass and Yantang Pass, she came down from Canglong Ridge to Stone Town, and there was not even a chasing soldier along the way, and she returned to Stone Town very safely.
The gates of Stone Town are gone, and the ice and snow around it have melted away from the fire, and it is definitely impossible to enter the city. Right now, hiding in the woods outside Stone Town is a way to survive. But this can't last long, not to mention that there is no food to eat, let's just say that it is winter, and the danger in the woods is even worse than that of the Northern Wei soldiers, and she does not dare to risk her life easily.
Xie Buming quickly came up with an idea.
Stone City can only avoid the limelight temporarily, and after the Northern Wei soldiers pass, she still has to find a way to blend into Chen Mingguan.
However, the ordinary people can't do it, not to mention that there will be war at any time, and even the Jingshi Guard is very likely to chase after him without giving up. She must ensure that Jing Shiwei will not find out about herself, so that she can try to clear the grievances of the Pei family.
After thinking about it, there is still only one way to go in the army!
How can you enter Chen Ming Pass justifiably and safely?
Xie Buming nested on the tree and made a serious calculation......
Too tired, and before she knew it, she fell asleep.
"Boss, Stone City has been razed to the ground, if the remnants of the Pei family hide in Stone City, they will either be killed by the Northern Wei Dynasty or burned to death by fire, right?"
In a daze, the voice of talking from under him woke up Xie Buming, who was napping in a daze.
looked down, and her cold sweat scared out.
I saw that there were seven or eight people sitting in the open space under me, building a bonfire, and drying clothes, and it was the Jingshi guard who she was trying her best to dodge!
These people are really haunted!
Xie Buming carefully adjusted his breathing, so as not to show traces, and his eyes rolled straight with a purr, constantly looking at the surrounding terrain, looking for a way to escape.
Underneath, Jing Shiwei's conversation continued.
"Who knows, the ability of the remnants of the Pei family is not small, maybe they are not dead."
"The Northern Barbarian is so cruel, will he let her go of a delicate girl? Maybe, it's better to rape first and then kill, and the death is miserable, otherwise, when the fire in Stone City is extinguished, let's go to the city to see if there is a female corpse with the identity? I heard that Miss Pei Jiana has an ancestral jade jue on her body, and she has not left her since she was born. ”
"Look at your color!"
"You're a good embryo, I'm serious!"
"You've been saying all the way that the remnants of the Pei family are good-looking, when we can't see your thoughts?"
"Just say me, don't you want to too?"
"Okay, what's the noise." The man known as the commander scolded with a smile: "No backbone! If you want to be happy, just work hard to catch people, the holy decree only let you catch it back, I didn't say what I can't do to her, it's yours if you catch it, on the way back to the capital, you can play how you like, and you can pose whatever posture you want, who can control you? If you can't catch someone, hehe......"
He smiled and smiled, and his tone changed: "I can't make a difference, everyone is waiting to lose their heads." ”
The others hurriedly laughed: "Boss, the brothers are all joking." ”
"Who's kidding you? It's a beauty, if you don't want to, move quickly, leave quickly when your clothes are dry, and only when you catch someone can you go back to the capital early to celebrate the New Year. The commander stood up and muttered with some complaints: "This snow keeps falling, it's really annoying, don't make everyone delay in the field for the New Year." ”
"The boss misses his sister-in-law!"
"Yes, wife and children are hot on the kang, who is willing to do this drudgery!"
The crowd laughed.
But the action was really quick, the clothes were dried, and the fire was extinguished, and the men got on their horses and left. Looking at the direction, he was looking around Stone Town to find Xie Buming.
After these people walked a long way, Xie Buming carefully climbed down the tree.
It seems that this forest is not safe either.
It's okay to hide at night, but in the daytime, she can't hide in the trees at all, and these owl-like eyes will soon spot her.
You have to go to Chen Mingguan as soon as possible and mix in the army!
Xie Buming secretly made up his mind.
Reaching out to his arms and touching a piece of warm jade, Xie Buming's eyes showed great reluctance and hesitation.
Jing Shiwei was right, this jade jue was worn by her as soon as she was born, she was not in good health at that time, and her grandfather was very worried, so he went to the temple in Jiangnan to ask for her. This jade has aura, and after she wears it, she really grows up safely, and her body is getting better and better. What is pinned on this jade is the love of the elders for her and the hope for her. Now, it is the only thought left to her by the Pei family.
Can......
If she doesn't give up this thing, she can't save her life, how can she be worthy of the Pei family?
Xie Buming clenched the jade jue in her hand, pressed it to her heart, closed her eyes, and she whispered: "Daddy, Auntie, grandfather, it's not that Huang Ming is ruthless to abandon it, it's really a last resort." Yu Jue, Yu Jue, if you are a spiritual creature, please protect me. Someday, I'll get you back again! ”
When he opened his eyes again, Xie Buming's eyes were firm, and he ran in the direction of Chen Mingguan.
After a short time, Xie Buming returned to the place where he killed the Northern Wei soldiers in the daytime. I thought that the corpses of the Northern Wei soldiers were still there, but they were thrown into the air, the blood in one place was worse than in the daytime, the fragments of clothes were scattered, and there were flesh and blood stumps, the scene was terrible, and the corpses of the Northern Wei soldiers did not know where they went.
"Gross-"
Xie Buming always felt that there was something under his feet, and when he looked down, he saw that it was half of a person's chest, as if he had been bitten by something, which was extremely disgusting.
She couldn't hold it anymore and threw up on the tree.
The wolf has been here!
Soon, Xie Buming understood.
In winter, the wolves in the mountains have nothing to eat, so many people have died here, and the smell of blood attracts the wolves to come, needless to say, the corpses of the Northern Wei soldiers must have been pulled back to the den by the hungry wolves to eat.
Her stomach was empty, she hadn't eaten for a day, she had nothing to vomit, and after vomiting a lot of water, she couldn't vomit anything.
Xie Buming stood in the woods with a strong smell of blood, weighed the jade jue in his hand, and found a place to put it down. Gritting his teeth, he simply ripped off his belly pocket, stained it with some blood, and threw it next to Biyujue. Then, she wrapped her undergarment tightly so that her breasts would not be too prominent, put on her outer garment, and chased in the direction where the daytime guard had left.
The snow was thick, and the howl of the wild wolf chilled the human bone marrow, Xie Buming held the black knife and walked forward in fear. As long as there was a little movement around, she would be shocked.
This night, for her, was a long night she had never had in her life.
Walking on the snow, she was not only worried that the footprints left behind would attract hungry wolves, but also worried that the Northern Wei soldiers would find their traces, and even more worried that her painstaking trap failed to hide the Jingshi guards, but let these people follow the footprints all the way and catch herself back to the capital.
If she is caught by those vicious Jingshi guards, what awaits her is a situation that is more difficult than death.
Xie Buming secretly made up her mind that if she really came to that point, she would rather wipe her neck with a knife than let these despicable and obscene Jingshi Wei benefit!
In the second half of the night, the wind and snow stopped, but the road did not become easier.
Without a belly pocket, the already pitiful clothes were not enough to keep out the cold, Xie Buming walked stiffly, and he could barely hold a knife. There was a burst of blackness in front of him, and when he passed through a dead forest, he didn't pay attention under his feet, Xie Buming tripped over a branch, and rolled away for a long time, unable to get up for half a day.
At this moment, there was a rustling sound from the bushes behind him, Xie Buming subconsciously touched his knife, and was about to fight his last breath to cut the comer, when his hand was suddenly caught, and Wei Qian's slightly eager voice came from his ear: "Ano, it's me!" ”
When she opened her eyes, Wei Qian's anxious face enlarged in front of her, Xie Buming's heart was relieved, his mind was suddenly clear, and his expression became excited: "Brother Wei Qian!" ”
She grabbed Wei Qian's arm, and when she saw the familiar face, she was so excited that she almost cried for a while.
Wei Qian looked at her, and nodded happily: "No, it's me, I'm back to find you." ”
"What about the intelligence?" Xie Buming asked eagerly.
Wei Qian held her arm, helped her sit on the ground, looked up and down first, and said with great relief: "It's great that you're not injured." Ano, don't worry, on my way to Chen Ming Pass, I met a scout from our army, and the intelligence has sent the scout back to Chen Ming Pass. I thought that your martial arts were not good, so I came back to answer you. It's just that I spared two laps in Canglongling, but I didn't find you. No, how did you get this far? ”
He untied the kettle on his waist and fed it to Xie Buming's lips: "Drink some water to moisten your throat first, do you have anything to eat?" ”
Xie Buming drank two sips of water, her chapped lips were finally more comfortable, and after listening to Wei Qian's question, she shook her head: "I don't have anything to eat." ”
"I know you don't." Wei Qian immediately reached into his arms and took out half of the half-hard baked cake: "The scout gave it to me, I ate half of it, and left half of it for you." ”
Xie Buming was so moved that he didn't know what to say.
It's all the end of the world, food is more important than anything else, Wei Qian is so affectionate, not only came back to her, but also left half of a baked cake for her.
He's a big man, I'm afraid he may not be able to eat enough for three baked cakes, right?
Taking half of the baked cake from Wei Qian's hand, Xie Buming only felt that his throat was swollen badly, and he pecked at the baked cake in small bites, and ate his first meal of the day with Wei Qian's water.
Wei Qian's eyes were shining, and he was extremely happy to see her eating: "Ah no, I'm relieved to see that you are safe and sound." You don't know that when I looked for you all the way, I was so scared that I would see your body under a tree. ”
Xie Buming didn't speak.
"How did you escape?" Wei Qian asked.
Xie Buming set himself up in an ambush and said that he had killed five soldiers of the Northern Wei Dynasty.
Wei Qian looked at her in shock, his eyes lit up: "Ah no, you are so smart." How do you understand so much? ”
"My family is a hunter." Xie Buming touched his head and lied without blinking his eyes: "I have been hunting since I was a child, big brother, don't look at me as smaller than you, but when it comes to life-saving means, you are definitely not as good as me." ”
