Chapter 197: Change

Cheng Xi was also tied hands, walked beside Xu Sanlang, and said, "It seems that Xu Wenyu has put a lot of effort into arresting us this time." ”

Xu Sanlang's eyes narrowed slightly, a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes, and he answered, "Don't worry, we'll be fine, but you will suffer again." ”

Cheng Xi said a few words to Xu Sanlang, and the officers and soldiers on the side said menacingly, "Mutter something, hurry up." ”

The weather is hot, the sun is big in the afternoon, Cheng Xi is wearing a red wedding dress, it is really hot enough, and his face is also red, plus he still eats steamed buns in the morning, he is hungry and tired, but he still has to work hard to drag his tired body and continue to walk.

Xu Sanlang on the side looked distressed, and he was even more annoyed with Xu Wenyu, who was originally married to Cheng Xi, but was ruined by this person.

In the evening, they rushed to a town, and the people in the town saw a group of officers and soldiers escorting more than a dozen people, the first two were still wearing big red clothes, and their appearance was so outstanding, they couldn't help but chase them curiously to watch, and heard that the group was actually a fierce bandit, so they were frightened and hid far away.

Hu Yan found an inn in the town to rest, Xu Sanlang and they were locked in a firewood room, and those men in strong suits were sent by Hu Yan to guard the door of the firewood room, but they were very cautious.

Xu Sanlang sat against the wall by himself, let Cheng Xi rest on his body, and said, "Hold on for two more days, and someone will come to save us soon." ”

Cheng Xi buried his head in Xu Sanlang's arms and rubbed it, closed his eyes and nodded weakly.

In the evening, the shopkeeper brought them some mixed noodles and steamed buns with water, and the group could only fill their stomachs.

After resting for one night, Cheng Xi finally felt better than yesterday, only to be escorted again in the morning and began to hurry, gradually the sun became more and more soaking, Cheng Xi's already sunburned head began to be groggy, half of his body leaned on Xu Sanlang, relying on Xu Sanlang to support and continue to move forward.

Xu Sanlang and the others slowed down, and the leading officers and soldiers who escorted them came over and were about to urge, only to see Xu Sanlang's eyes full of anger, and they were suddenly frightened and didn't dare to speak, so they closed their mouths and remained silent, simply opened their eyes and closed one eye, and didn't know what to do.

At night, he was still locked up in the firewood room, Xu Sanlang looked at Cheng Xi's face that was a little red from the sun, and his slightly tired face, and said distressedly, "Yuecheng is not far from Lihua Village, if Yu Gongzi sends the letter in time, at most someone from Yuecheng will come to rescue us tomorrow." ”

Cheng Xi leaned on Xu Sanlang, his eyes were slightly closed, and he let out a weak "um", and then gritted his teeth and said, "Your fourth uncle Xu Wenyu, you must not let him go." Then he fell asleep.

Cheng Xi was awakened by the movement outside in the middle of the night, only to wake up and feel dizzy and uncomfortable, Cheng Xi thought to himself, he was afraid of heat stroke.

Leaning on Xu Sanlang's chest, Cheng Xi listened to the sound of the fight outside and said, "What's the matter?" ”

Xu Sanlang stretched out his hand to hug Cheng Xi and answered, "Awake?" ”

Cheng Xi realized that his hand could move, and he was held in Xu Sanlang's arms, Cheng Xi wondered, "Is the help coming?" ”

Xu Saburo shook his head and asked, "What do you think?" Where is the discomfort? ”

Cheng Xi said weakly, "I'm afraid it's heat stroke." Not a rescuer? What's going on out there? ”

Xu Sanlang said, "Ah Yi, they rushed out. ”

Cheng Xi turned his head with difficulty, only to find that there was no one in the firewood room except for him and Xu Sanlang, Cheng Xi was very worried and said, "Just Ah Yi, can they deal with so many people?" ”

Xu Saburo responded, "Forgot what Ah Yi is best at?" Don't worry, we'll get out of here when they've cleaned up those bunches. ”

Cheng Xi hummed softly, he was really tired, and he was weak and groggy in Xu Sanlang's arms, and he didn't speak anymore.

After a while, Ah Yi pushed open the firewood room and came in, and said, "Master, those people are really difficult to deal with, you take your wife to leave first, and we will break off." ”

Xu Sanlang nodded, hugged Cheng Xi to keep up with Ah Yi's footsteps, and secretly went out from the back door at night, the officers and soldiers guarding the door had all been put down by Ah Yi and fell to the ground, a horse stopped at the door, Ah Yi reached out and took out a purse from his arms and handed it to Xu Sanlang, then he opened his mouth and urged, "Master, you leave quickly, I will take everyone to stop them." ”

Xu Sanlang looked at Ah Yi and said, "Be careful yourself, don't lose your life." ”

After speaking, he took Cheng Xi and turned over on the horse, took advantage of the night, clamped the horse's belly, and melted into the darkness.

Cheng Xi woke up not long ago, and gradually fell asleep in the bumps of the horse's gallop, and when he woke up again, the first thing that caught his eyes was the cliff overhead.

"Awake? Come get some water. ”

Cheng Xi turned his head and saw Xu Sanlang on the side, still wearing a red auspicious suit, only the red auspicious suit had become tattered, very embarrassed, and there were some scratched blood marks on his face.

Cheng Xi drank some water from the leaves that Xu Saburo handed to his mouth, and then asked in a hoarse voice, "Where are we?" ”

Xu Saburo sighed and replied, "We were chased by those people to a mountain, it was too dark at night, we fell off the cliff with people and horses, fortunately, the trees were lush under the cliff, and the cumbersome auspicious clothes on our bodies played a role, hung on the tree, and did not fall to death." ”

Cheng Xi said worriedly, "Ah Yi, what about them?" ”

Xu Sanlang said, "Don't worry, they should get out, after these people found out about us, most of those masters came to chase us, they should be able to get out, but you are sick now, my leg was injured when I fell down, I am afraid that we will not be able to leave here for the time being." ”

Cheng Xi looked at Xu Sanlang's legs worriedly, and saw that Xu Sanlang's calves were wrapped in a circle of white cloth, Xu Sanlang saw Cheng Xi's worries in his eyes, and comforted him softly, "Don't worry, I didn't hurt my muscles and bones, but now I can't leave here for the time being, and the outside is not necessarily safer than here." ”

Cheng Xi breathed a sigh of relief, Xu Sanlang reached out and touched Cheng Xi's forehead, and said, "Fortunately, I don't have a fever, but what do I still feel uncomfortable?" ”

Cheng Xi shook his head and responded, "I just feel a little weak in my body, my body is good, and I should be fine when I rest." ”

Xu Sanlang helped Cheng Xi sit up, Cheng Xi observed the surrounding environment, they were in a recessed cliff cave, under them was a pile of hay, it should have been made by Xu Sanlang, the sun was thick outside, it should be noon, there was a fire at the mouth of the cliff cave, and a piece of meat was standing on it.

Xu Sanlang followed Cheng Xi's gaze and saw the piece of meat roasted at the door, and said while standing up and limping over, "Hungry, right?" The horse fell and died, but we have rations, so I'll get them for you. ”

Cheng Xi was indeed hungry, watching Xu Sanlang limping with difficulty, and wanted to stand up and go over, but found that he had no strength, and it was difficult to stand up, so he had to sit in place and wait for Xu Sanlang to bring it to her.

After that, both of them ate some meat and drank some water, and Cheng Xi's strength gradually recovered.

Xu Sanlang stood up with a stick, handed the dagger on his body to Cheng Xi, and said, "You rest in the cave for a while, and I'll go out and have a look." ”

Cheng Xi frowned and stood up, "Where did your legs go like this?" ”

Xu Saburo responded, "It's okay, go find some herbs." ”

Cheng Xi hurriedly went over to support Xu Sanlang, "I'll go with you." ”

Seeing Xu Sanlang looking at himself worriedly, without waiting for Xu Saburo's refusal to speak, Cheng Xi opened his mouth and continued, "Don't worry, I'm fine, besides, I'm scared to stay alone in this cave." ”

Xu Sanlang had to nod his head in response, and followed Cheng Xi to support each other out of the cave, the two of them went around and found a lot of herbs, and then Xu Sanlang took Cheng Xi to the small river he found before, the river water is clear, and there are a lot of small fish and shrimp in it, there is water and food, Cheng Xi is not worried that they will starve to death.

Helping Xu Saburo to sit under the tree by the river, Cheng Xi simply ripped off the auspicious clothes on his body, wearing only a white undershirt, rolled up his trouser legs, and planned to touch a small fish or two.

Xu Sanlang looked at Cheng Xi's excited face, and let her toss for a long time, but she really touched two fish, Cheng Xi took the knife again, cleaned up the fish in the lake, and raised it towards Xu Sanlang like a show-off, and said, "We have grilled fish to eat." ”

The two of them supported each other again to the cave, lit the fire at the door, and Cheng Xi began to grill the fish, the fish was very fresh, and after it was cooked, even if there was no salt, it was not too unpalatable.

Xu Saburo was tinkering with the herbs he brought back, picking out a few and letting Cheng Xi chew them by himself, Cheng Xi was very disgusted and said that he was fine, but he was forced by Xu Saburo to chew a few herbs before he gave up.

The rest was smashed by Xu Sanlang with a stone and applied to his injured leg, Cheng Xi saw that the wound on Xu Sanlang's leg was just hanging very long, not too deep, so he was a little relieved.

In the next few days, the two of them stayed under this cliff, Cheng Xi regarded it as a survival in the wild, and the life was not too uncomfortable, he was forced to chew herbs by Xu Sanlang every day, and his body was quite energetic, and Xu Sanlang's leg injury was also much better.

It's just that Xu Sanlang doesn't plan to leave now, just waiting for the rescuers to come to them, lest he stay with Cheng Xi and go out, and it will be more troublesome to meet Xu Wenyu's people again.

Seeing Cheng Xi bouncing around in this valley all day was also very happy, Xu Sanlang simply stayed with Cheng Xi under this cliff with peace of mind.

After staying for about ten days, Cheng Xi couldn't stay any longer, eating grilled fish and roasted meat and wild fruits every day, she was really tired of eating, only Xu Sanlang's leg injury had not yet scabbed, and she didn't want to mention leaving.

Xu Sanlang saw it in his eyes, and was about to take Cheng Xi away, but he didn't want Ah Yi to come with rescuers.

"Master, ma'am!"

Hearing the familiar shout, Cheng Xi stood up excitedly, stood by the creek and said loudly, "Ah Yi, Ah Yi, we are here." ”

Ah Yi's hand should have been injured, hanging on his neck, and he took a few people to see that the lady standing by the river was fine, and the master standing in the river was still holding a fish in his hand, which was also good, his eyes were red instantly, and he shouted loudly, "Second son, the master and the lady are here." ”

Immediately afterwards, a group of people rushed over to this side, and the leader was actually Ge Shu, who was exactly the same as Xu Sanlang, who was still worried when he rushed over, and what he said was really bad.

"Yo, big brother, you and your sister-in-law are really at leisure, you actually hide here to catch fish, and the harmful Ah Yi is easy to find."
