Chapter 5 Three-way Eye
"Flee back?" The man in black asked.
"Well, they put me under house arrest." Xu Taiyan swallowed his saliva, and finally said slowly, "You are also from Haoyuan, right?" ”
"Oh?" The man in black didn't seem to guess that this child, who looked as ignorant as an animal and was only thirteen or fourteen years old, could still judge that he was a Haoyuan person. Sure enough, it was too light-hearted, but it was originally planned that for this person, either get rid of it or bring it back for a good interrogation.
"Can you take me back?" Xu Taiyan asked.
"Okay." The man in black replied.
"Thank you." Xu Taiyan thought to himself that he was fortunate to have met a nobleman, otherwise it was really unimaginable, and he might die here directly, and looked at the man in black opposite with gratitude, "Thank you." ”
The man in black smiled, looked at the grateful child on the other side of the firelight, full of innocence and ignorance, and said, "You're welcome. ”
The next day, the man in black was alone again, following the direction of the river and continuing to find the exit. When I came back by noon, there was still no result. The river is cut off when it reaches a mile downstream, it is a waterfall that flows straight down, ordinary people simply cannot continue to go forward, and they can't see how high the waterfall is, but listening to the sound of the water impact, it must be more than enough for 100 meters.
When the two were anxious about this exit, Xu Taiyan was suddenly picked up by the man in black and hid in a corner.
"Shhhh The man in black bowed his head and said to the child in his arms, and pointed to the top of the cliff, where a team of people was about to come down one after another. The long rope of iron ropes, flying down, seems to have come prepared.
"What should I do?" Xu Taiyan was anxious in his heart, he must have come to arrest himself.
"Let's go." The man in black threw him on his back, grabbed his two hands around his neck, and ordered, "Hold on." ”
Xu Taiyan hurriedly hugged the neck of the man in black tightly, his heart beating fast.
The man in black carried a man on his back, but he was still nimble, well-trained and hunched, leaning against the rock wall, using trees and weeds as a cover, and retreating with agility and speed, but without making a sound, as agile and swift as a cheetah.
The surrounding scenery quickly retreated, and Xu Taiyan looked back at the team of men and horses that were about to fall to the bottom of the cliff. Thankfully, I was able to escape. Tightly grasped the neck of the man in black, for fear that he would be too fast and throw himself down.
But it didn't take long for there to be no road in front of us. The river turned into a waterfall and plunged into the depths of the cliff, the sound of the water crashing through the valley.
The man in black put down Xu Taiyan on his back.
"What should I do?" Xu Taiyan looked up at the man in black anxiously, he had always been scared, shocking, and his eyes like a cheetah, but now they exuded a powerful reassuring power, and now the stronger he is, the more likely he is to escape with himself.
"Let's go." The man in black grabbed Xu Taiyan with his arm and ran to the waterfall, burrowing into a small cave crevice hidden by grass, trees and rocks. This was found by the Man in Black while observing yesterday. It's small, just big enough for three or two people. It is difficult for ordinary people to find out, if you just look at it from the outside, it is just a mountain cliff.
Because of the small accommodating area, both of them stood sideways facing each other. Xu Taiyan's face was close to the chest of the man in black, his nose was full of the breath of the man in black, and the sound he heard in his ears was no longer the sound of the waterfall that shook the valley, but the heartbeat of his chest one by one.
Xu Taiyan was nervous, and his breathing unconsciously increased.
"Relax, breathe lightly." I don't know when, Xu Taiyan felt that the man in black lowered his head and whispered in his ear, and the air flow rushed straight into Xu Taiyan's ears. I was so nervous that I stiffened and didn't even dare to move.
At the same time, I also noticed that outside, all the teams that were searching had come down to the bottom of the cliff. I approach inch by inch and search carefully.
Unexpectedly, the half-hundred-year-old national teacher actually came, and instructed the search team outside, "It must be here, search carefully." ”
The man in black was obviously also surprised by the appearance of the old man. "Last time?" It seems that he didn't catch himself, and he looked down at the child who was nesting in his arms at the moment, and it was really not simple, "Catch you?" ”
"Hmm." Xu Taiyan nervously grabbed the clothes on the chest of the man in black.
Looking at the team of Si Kou Guo outside, he searched all around, and reported to the old national teacher, "No one was found." ”
"Impossible, look carefully." The old national teacher squinted, he had to find it. The traces of fire on the low cliff must be someone. When the eye sees the waterfall, it is impossible, and there is no chance of survival from where to jump. The child was young, only thirteen or fourteen years old, and he came across as a cowardly and introverted person, not like someone who was so aggressive and could jump.
I looked around again, but it still didn't work.
"Take the fire, set it on fire and smoke it. Look for me carefully inch by inch, and turn the stone over for me. "The old national teacher doesn't believe it anymore, can he fly?
Xu Taiyan watched as the number of people collected more than tripled, and he looked very carefully, cutting down thorns inch by inch, even the leaves. In this form and progression, it is impossible for even a fly to escape. Not to mention a big living person. In addition, the smoke and fire around it are very choking.
Xu Taiyan desperately tried to hold back the sound of being choked and wanting to cough. I couldn't bear to hear the sound of my own powerful heartbeat in my ears, as well as the heartbeat of the people next to me. Xu Taiyan looked up at the man in black, he had been dressed in black for the past two days, revealing only two eyes like cheetahs.
He must also be avoiding the pursuit of Si Kou Guo, if it weren't for himself, he wouldn't have fallen into this dangerous situation now, the old man was originally here to find him. Moreover, if it weren't for the man in black who saved him, he might have died by the river.
"I'll get out." Xu Taiyan desperately endured the choking smoke and said softly.
"Don't move." The man in black grabbed his body that wanted to go out, "Wait. As he spoke, he took off the black cloth that had been covering his face before, and reached out to tie it to Xu Taiyan, so that he would not be choked by the smoke, "Bear with it a little longer." ”
Xu Taiyan raised his head, and saw the face of the man in black for the first time, but unexpectedly, the man in black was not as mature as he imagined, just a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy. The eyebrows are handsome, with the youthfulness and maturity of a teenager in the transition period to adulthood. Coupled with the golden eyes and the whirlpool like the sun, it makes people a little stunned when they see it.
Xu Taiyan hurriedly lowered his head, the appearance of the man in black was obviously very handsome, but he didn't dare to look up for a second look. Reaching out and touching the black cloth tied to his face, it seemed to have the breath of a man in black.
It turned out that the man in black he had always feared was actually just a teenager who was not much older than himself, but why was his ability so strong?
"No, no." The search team searched around and still found no one.
"How is it possible, such a big place, can it fly into the sky?" The old national teacher changed his previous calmness and was a little angry. "Set fire!! If you don't, you will burn the land. ”
"Yes." The search team continued to search, and at the same time one team had begun to set fires, and the flames were lit on the grass and trees everywhere, and the fire spread very quickly, and in a while, the whole valley was reflected in the fire, and there were already the sound of wailing animals everywhere.
The flames kept spreading and jumping. Even the red cliffs of the mountain cliffs seemed to be on fire, and they were extremely hot.
Xu Taiyan was covered in sweat, some were scared before, and some were now because of the heat. He looked up at the resolute and handsome face of the man in black, squinting outside, a field of golden eyes reflected in the fire. I shouldn't bother him, in the current situation, even if I plug my wings, it will be difficult to fly. Maybe after the national teacher captures himself, he can find an opportunity to escape with the help of those ropes that come down.
The man in black felt the child's gaze staring at him, looked down, and saw the child's expression of determination to die in righteousness. The corners of his mouth moved towards him.
Xu Taiyan lowered his head and reached out to untie the black cloth that the man in black had tied to his face and put it on his hand. He didn't understand, the man in black just pulled the corners of his mouth for a moment, showing a smile or encouragement? But there was no time to think too much, so he just lowered his head and whispered, "Next time, will you take me back to Haoyuan Kingdom?" ”
"Okay."
Xu Taiyan turned around and drilled out of the gap between the cliffs, hunched over and drilled out of the thorn hole, pulled out his legs and rushed out desperately, ran for a while, and coughed.
The flames were in the sky, and the smoke was filled, and they were immediately discovered.
"Found it, catch him." Someone shouted, and Xu Taiyan was immediately surrounded by many people, escorted back and forth. was caught in front of the old national teacher.
"Yes, it's only coming out now." The old national teacher held a wet cloth in his hand, covered his nose, looked at the surrounding firelight, and looked like a well-behaved child, quite able to run, and quite able to endure, it seems that he really underestimated him before.
Xu Taiyan didn't speak, he was escorted by those tall horses, and he looked extremely thin. There was no struggle or anger, just a head bowed, long hair covered everything, the thin appearance of the young man, looking pitiful and obedient.
The old national teacher gave the wet cloth in his hand to Xu Taiyan, but Xu Taiyan didn't take it, just lowered his head, and his waterfall-like black hair was scattered, covering most of his face, revealing an extraordinarily white and delicate chin.
The old national teacher sighed and said, "Then take it back." ”
A team of people escorted Xu Taiyan and the old national teacher up the cliff, don't look at the old national teacher who is nearly half a hundred years old, but his skills are extremely flexible, but it is very in line with the appearance of the fairy wind bones.
The rest of the team also quickly climbed the cliff and quickly retreated.
The last man in the retreating group did not realize the danger coming.
The man in black lurked silently behind him, covered his mouth, instantly cut his throat, dragged him to a hidden place, quickly changed his clothes, climbed on the rope, and disappeared into the night.
