Chapter 11: Escape from Death

Seeing Wu Zhiyuan suddenly appear from the haystack, everyone was stunned. The first person in the crowd was holding a machete, and he was the first to come back to his senses, raised the machete and pointed at Wu Zhiyuan, and asked, "Who are you?" ”

"I ......" Wu Zhiyuan was asked by him, and he was immediately speechless, and replied in a hurry: "I live here!" ”

"It turned out to be a beggar." When the man heard Wu Zhiyuan say that he lived here, and saw that he was covered in grass, he instantly realized and muttered in his mouth.

"Let me ask you, have you seen a flat-headed boy with a knife wound in his back?" The man looked at Wu Zhiyuan with a cold and ruthless look in his eyes.

"It turns out that he was injured, no wonder he couldn't help but scream just now." Wu Zhiyuan suddenly realized, thought about it in his heart, straightened his chest, and replied without hesitation: "I've seen it!" ”

This crisp and neat "I've seen" couldn't help but cheer everyone in front of him, and also surprised the flat-headed young man surnamed Du who was still hiding in the grass.

"Oh? Tell me, where did he go? Say it, uncle, there is a reward! The man's eyes lit up when he heard this, and his tone softened slightly, this kind of words were just used to deceive a weak person like Wu Zhiyuan.

"He's going that way." Wu Zhiyuan didn't know the reason, looking at their fierce and vicious appearance, they were by no means trustworthy people, so he had an idea, stretched out his right hand and pointed to the west.

"Big brother, this stinky nonsense! A few of us brothers came from the west, and we didn't see a single ghost! A person next to him was holding a torch, and when he heard this, he hurriedly explained to the man with the machete.

"I know it." The man with the machete at the head sneered, but he was thinking about another idea in his heart, and said coldly, "Regardless of whether what this person said is true or not, arrest him first, in case we can't catch the kid surnamed Du, we can take this kid back and say that he let go of the surnamed Du, so that he has something to explain to the boss." ”

Although it was a despicable idea, the man didn't seem to be afraid of Wu Zhiyuan hearing it at all, and he spoke at the same volume as a normal chat, undisguised. Maybe in their opinion, the person in front of them is already a turtle in an urn, and there is no possibility of escaping at all.

Everyone said yes one after another, and even those who were good at sycophants praised the man. Wu Zhiyuan heard these insidious and vicious tricks clearly, but at this moment, in the face of so many big men armed with machetes and iron rods, Wu Zhiyuan had no choice but to be afraid. Of course, he can also point to the haystack and confess that the surname Du is hiding in it, and he may be able to escape this catastrophe.

He didn't do this, although he had just stepped into society, but the word "righteousness" had been instilled in his mind as early as when he was in school, and he was not the kind of villain who took advantage of people's dangers. The only thing that can be done now is to be submissive, the fate of being taken away by these people does not necessarily involve life and death, but if the person surnamed Du in the haystack is caught, he will obviously die.

Mentally prepared to be a scapegoat, Wu Zhiyuan did not speak, suppressed the fear and anger in his heart, and looked at the sinister and cunning faces and approached him step by step with a cruel smile.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in the haystack, he raised two handfuls of grass clippings towards the crowd, pulled up Wu Zhiyuan, and shouted: "Run!" ”

It turned out that the young man surnamed Du was hiding in the grass and heard the conversation outside clearly, and in his heart he hated the gang of people who were chasing him even more, but he was also greatly moved by Wu Zhiyuan's righteous help. He knew that if Wu Zhiyuan was captured by these people, he would definitely be more than lucky, so he came up with such a trick to get out, so he ignored the exposure and hiding, and broke the boat.

The crowd panicked, and no one expected that a person would suddenly emerge from the haystack. Two handfuls of grass clippings were scattered in the crowd, which immediately disturbed their vision, and when they came back to their senses, Wu Zhiyuan and the boy surnamed Du had already run into the street, turned into other alleys, and disappeared.

The soldiers were divided into two ways, and they searched indiscriminately, and finally had to return in a huff.

At about four o'clock, Wu Zhiyuan and the boy surnamed Du came to a ruined temple outside the city.

As soon as he stepped into the temple gate with his front foot, the young man surnamed Du screamed miserably and fell to the ground. Wu Zhiyuan hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, only then did he see the other party's appearance clearly, only to see that he had clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, flat ears and flat head, extremely short hair, but surprisingly big ears, which were extremely inconsistent with his thin face.

"How's your injury?" Wu Zhiyuan looked concerned, if it wasn't revealed by the gang of people who were chasing him, he wouldn't have thought that the other party was injured.

"After ...... Back. The young man surnamed Du held back the pain, and beads of sweat appeared on his face.

Only then did Wu Zhiyuan notice that there was a long wound on his back, and the flesh was turned out, although it was not deep, but the wound was very long, and it was bleeding constantly.

"I'm going to have to stop the bleeding for you first." Wu Zhiyuan opened the burden on his shoulders, picked out a single coat, tore it into two times, and then tied it together, bandaged it along the wound on the back of the surnamed Du, and tied a knot on his chest at the end.

Wu Zhiyuan helped the boy surnamed Du to sit down by the wall, he probably lost too much blood and fell asleep leaning against the wall. Wu Zhiyuan was also physically and mentally exhausted, found a clean place, and soon fell asleep.

When Wu Zhiyuan woke up again, he was already on the rise. He sat up and found the boy surnamed Du sitting against the wall, his eyes looking him up and down.

"Are you awake?" The young man smiled slightly, with a sleek expression, but not without losing his sincerity.

"Hmm." Wu Zhiyuan stood up and asked, "How are your injuries?" ”

"Also...... It still hurts a little. The young man shrugged his shoulders slightly, revealing a grinning expression, obviously touching the wound, he gasped, his face was pale, he looked up at Wu Zhiyuan, and said with a sincere face: "Xie Lu Xie!" ”

"You're welcome!" Wu Zhiyuan smiled in return, and then asked, "What's your name?" ”

"I ...... My name is...... My name is Du Sunset! It turned out that the young man surnamed Du took Yu Yisu's robe to the clothing store to wash it a few days ago, and was later followed by Zhang Zefang to Du Sunset in Yihong Courtyard.

"Sunset, what a poetic name! My name is Wu Zhiyuan. Wu Zhiyuan said his name briskly, suddenly remembered the scene last night, and asked strangely: "By the way, who were those people last night?" ”

"They're thugs hired by Sheng Kee Muxing." Du Sunset recalled the scene of being hunted down last night, and still had palpitations.

"Those guys are so vicious! Why do they hunt you down? Wu Zhiyuan looked at the knife wound on Du Sunluo's back, and knew that he was cut down by a machete without asking.

Du Sunset opened his mouth, as if he was a little embarrassed, looking at Wu Zhiyuan's eager expression, he was silent for a while, and finally opened his mouth to explain the reason.

"I slept with the seventh aunt of the boss of the wooden shop!"
