Chapter 562: Crossing the Minefield
Ye Xiaorou was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly followed, she looked up at Lu Li's back, he walked slowly, but he seemed to be a little awkward.
Behind the house, there was a clear stream, and the sunlight shone on the gurgling stream, reflecting a brilliant halo.
Looking at the flowing stream, Ye Xiaorou couldn't help but squat down and reach out to touch the cold stream.
The clarity of her fingertips made her sigh softly, water is indeed the source of life, Ye Xiaorou looked at the flowing stream, and her heart gradually calmed down.
"You wash here, I'll go over there, shout loudly if there's something, this is close to the dense forest, anything can appear." Lu Li turned his back to Ye Xiaorou and said in a deep voice.
Ye Xiaorou looked back at Lu Li's back, this man didn't look much older than her, but on his bare arms and chest, Ye Xiaorou saw the scar, and thought of his profession, Ye Xiaorou thought of the reason for his injury.
No one is born willing to plunder the lives of others, what has happened to this man that makes him rely on taking the lives of others in exchange for his right to live?
It is indeed dangerous to be close to the dense forest, and Ye Xiaorou doesn't know what she will come out of the dense forest in the next second, so she always maintains a high degree of vigilance.
The danger was lurking nearby, and it was outdoors, Ye Xiaorou didn't dare to take off her clothes and take a bath, she just used the clear stream water to clean the places she could go, even so, the freshness of her body still made the corners of her lips slightly raised.
Thinking that Lu Li was still nearby, Ye Xiaorou hurriedly scrubbed her arms again, not nostalgic for the cold touch.
Because she had to walk at night, during the day, Ye Xiaorou tried to rest as much as possible, and what comforted the two of them was that Ye Xiaorou's wound recovered quite well, although she had a fever last night, it had already subsided in the early morning.
After a full day's rest, Ye Xiaorou felt that her physical strength had recovered a lot, and when night fell, the two waved goodbye to the woman and walked on the only path to the town.
For safety, the two of them didn't dare to illuminate, and when they walked, they also tried to get as close to the woods as possible, so that they could feel safer with the shelter of trees.
Ye Xiaorou followed behind Lu Li, the two of them walked one after the other, and they didn't know how long they walked, Ye Xiaorou saw a bright spot appear in front of them.
"It's a watchtower." Lu Li also stopped, stood against a tree, looked at the bright spots in the distance and said.
"How's it going?" Ye Xiaorou didn't know anything about this kind of sentry tower, but looking at Lu Li's appearance, he should know how to go over the safest way.
"Let's go, let's go into the woods, preferably bypass." Lu Li thought for a moment and spoke.
Ye Xiaorou glanced at Lu Li, and knew in her heart that if it was him, maybe he wouldn't have to be so troublesome at all, he would choose to bypass quietly, and it was also because of her.
Thinking of this, Ye Xiaorou turned her head to look at Lu Li, her voice was low and deep, and said, "Thank you." ”
Lu Li's body trembled slightly, and he shook his head with a chuckle, he may not have thought that he was a killer, and he would have to be thanked one day.
If he was alone, he might not really have to be so troublesome, he had a hundred ways to sneak in quietly and assassinate everyone inside, but the killer is also a human being, and he doesn't want to kill people all the time, and when he is more, he also hopes that he can be like ordinary people, standing in the sun, breathing free air, or falling in love.
Lu Li looked at Ye Xiaorou, in the dark, he actually couldn't see Ye Xiaorou's expression clearly, but he could feel the tenderness in her, and her gentleness also infected him, although it would be a little troublesome, but if they went farther, they were safe.
Back in the dense forest, Lu Li naturally took Ye Xiaorou's hand, Ye Xiaorou wanted to resist, and then, she heard Lu Li's voice, "Follow me, there may be mines in the dense forest." ”
Ye Xiaorou frowned, will there really be a mine? She thought about it again, this is absolutely possible, there is a sentry tower ahead, and the purpose of the sentry tower is to monitor the danger, they can think of bypassing the sentry tower, and others can also think of it, so it is very likely that the soldiers planted mines in the dense forest to prevent people from hiding in the dense forest to bypass the sentry tower.
After entering the dense forest again, Lu Li did not walk quickly, and from the hand he held Ye Xiaorou, Ye Xiao could feel that he was in a nervous mood.
It is indeed very difficult to find hidden mines in the dark, so Lu Li will be so nervous.
Lu Li was silent all the way, his hand could feel the temperature of her fingertips, especially in the dark night, the temperature of her palm made him more sensitive.
Looking down at the hand he was holding, Lu Li smiled, a murderer, was actually warmed by a woman.
Ye Xiaorou followed behind Lu Li, walking cautiously, Ye Xiaorou also found that Lu Li was not walking in a straight line, but walking close to the trees, Ye Xiaorou also learned Lu Li's appearance, and tried to walk in the position he walked at every step.
Lu Li glanced back at Ye Xiaorou from time to time, although he didn't say a word, Ye Xiaorou knew that he was very satisfied with his actions.
After walking for a while, the two of them were already close to the sentry tower, and Lu Li also slowed down his movements.
Suddenly, Ye Xiaorou felt Lu Li tugging at her, and her whole person suddenly fell to the ground.
Before Ye Xiaorou could make the next move, Lu Li's hand had already pressed her head.
An unusually bright light poked in their direction, it was a military searchlight.
Ye Xiaorou lay on the ground and looked up at the source of the light, where a dark white circular building stood in the opposite woods in the night.
The light flickered by and turned to the other side, and at this time, Lu Li pulled up Ye Xiaorou, clinging to a row of tall poplars, and walked a few steps quickly.
Then there was another pounce, and the lights flickered.
After a few repetitions, the watchtower behind her was in the night, and the hungry wolf-like light became distant, but Ye Xiaorou knew that she was already nervous and sweaty.
Ye Xiaorou glanced at Lu Li beside her, and couldn't help but sigh, fortunately, Lu Li was there, otherwise she alone would never have escaped the searchlight of the sentry tower.
After passing the sentry tower, it was relatively safe, and Lu Li led Ye Xiaorou out of the dense forest.
There will be no mines in this section, but Lu Li did not let go of Ye Xiaorou's hand.
Ye Xiaorou did not refuse him to continue to hold him, in the dark night, there were only the two of them, Ye Xiaorou was somewhat afraid, and there was a warm feeling from Lu Li's hand, which made Ye Xiaorou feel that she was at least not alone.
