Chapter 61: The Pursuit
The strange man was not only not half frightened by such a rough action in front of him, but his eyes were even more angry. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info he glared at He Wei and pointed to his nose, and said in a rough voice: "You let go!" Let go!! ”
Xiao Ye on the side saw that the contradiction between the two was getting worse and worse, and they were entangled with each other, so he hurriedly put on a smiling face and stepped forward to dissuade him: "Okay, okay, everyone meets in Pingshui, even if it is to give the old man and me a thin face, both sides take a step back." ”
Several middle-aged strong men standing around were just smiling indifferently on the side, and none of them stepped forward to persuade them.
At this time, He Wei's eyes were almost about to explode. His hands pinched the strange man's neck fiercely, quickly overturned him to the ground, and his whole body pressed him, while gritting his teeth and scolding: "You grandson, you have the ability to repeat what you just said!" ”
The strange man was lying on the ground struggling desperately, his face flushed and his lips blackened. The neck seemed to be pressed by a big stone, and he couldn't breathe, as if he was about to die in the next second.
And the few ragged strong men nearby were still sneering with ghosts in their hearts, but when they suddenly saw the sudden action in front of them, the expressions on their faces suddenly changed drastically.
One of the grizzled fierce men rushed over rudely, his arm as rough as the bark of a yellow tree, leaned forward and grabbed He Wei firmly, kicking him with all his strength.
The rest of the strong men also followed, and faced He Wei, who fell to the ground, without saying a word, there was a burst of punches and kicks. One of them took advantage of the chaos to grab him by the hair and threatened: "A yellow-haired boy dares to make a mistake here, it seems that he will throw you into the river to feed the fish." ”
"Yes, kill him, preferably leave him with no bones left." Another strong man followed.
The faces of everyone around were filled with an uncontrollable fire, and with the advantage of the disparity between the crowd and the outnumbered, He Wei was beaten ruthlessly against He Wei, who was powerless in the crowd.
In just a few seconds, He Wei had already been beaten to the point that his skin was torn apart, his face was blue and purple, and he was completely unable to move in the crowd in the corner.
Xiao Ye was already stunned when he stood there, and after a while, he reacted and quickly rushed into the crowd, desperately pushing them away, while shouting loudly: "Stop it for me!" It's all your own people, don't kill each other! ”
The strange man who fell to the ground slowly got up at this time, took a few deep breaths, and his face was still a little blue. When he recovered from his recovery, he immediately squinted at He Wei, who was being beaten, and suddenly showed a triumphant smile on his cheeks, and said, "Hmph! Dare to be arrogant in front of me, and do not look at who I am. ”
Everyone ignored Xiao Ye's advice, ignored his existence, and continued to greet He Wei with punches and punches.
Seeing that the stop was ineffective, Xiao Ye immediately drew his sword from his waist, raised it above his head, and shouted: "Stop!" Whoever dares not obey my orders will be killed now. ”
When they heard the sound of the sword unsheathed, they all stopped suddenly. The neck unconsciously slowly squinted behind him, and the unstoppable arrogance before was finally retracted from his face.
Except for Xiao Ye, all the people in the thatched house did not carry any sharp metal weapons on their bodies, and they were all bare-handed, which may be one of the main reasons for their fear.
Xiao Ye continued to step forward, clenched the long sword in his hand, waved it and pointed it at their chests one by one, and said: "We just escaped the pursuit of the ghost and escaped from death, and finally stopped for a while, but now you are killing each other, each of you is suspicious, if we don't unite and unite with the outside world, our death will not be far away." ”
After hearing this, many people slowly lowered their heads and did not make a sound.
The strange strong man suddenly walked over and said, "But what can we do now?" We are all turtles in an urn now, and we are unarmed, we don't even have an iron pickaxe to fight, what can we resist? ”
"Yes, don't say it's an iron pickaxe, you can't even find a decent burning stick, the woods within a radius of a hundred miles are burned to ashes, the mineral veins in the hills are emptied, there are no swords, guns, swords, halberds, what to resist?" One of the brawny men replied.
"Yes, yes, with just a few of our lives, we really have no power to return to heaven."
"That's right, there are not only dozens of ghost guards in the town, but also more than 100 tiger warriors, and the stone wall is also impregnable, so there is nothing to do?"
"Ten thousand steps back, even if we take that town, what can we do? It's not a fish to die for. ”
Everyone who was silent before, when they heard the words of the strange strong man, they couldn't help but talk to each other.
Xiao Zhu, who was standing on the side for a long time at this moment, suddenly pointed at them and scolded: "You are all so strong, how can you talk like a coward, in this case, you should each run for your lives, anyway, you will all die." ”
Xiao Ye slowly put the long sword in his hand into the scabbard, and said in a low voice: "They all have a point, if we want to survive, we can only hide in the hole like a mouse." ”
Just as everyone was arguing with each other, two burly men suddenly rushed in at the gate. One of them had a long braid on the back of his head, and the other was a mantle, and the two were Zhanfei and Hao Yue.
As soon as Hao Yue entered the door, his eyes first locked on Xiao Ye's body, his expression was a little flustered, and he walked up quickly and said to him: "Senior Xiao, something is wrong, the ghosts have found us hiding here, and they have gathered all the people to hunt them down." ”
Xiao Ye hurriedly stepped forward and said, "What? How many people did they come? ”
Hao Yue said in a panic: "Although there are not many people here, they all have iron weapons, and they have already chased behind our butts, and we will definitely not be able to fight hard." ”
Xiao Ye said: "Let's run, if we can live one by one, we can't care so much now......"
Xiao Ye was just halfway through this sentence when a sharp arrow shot out of the window and stuck it on the beam in the house.
After seeing this, everyone was so nervous that they couldn't speak, and all of them panicked, and everyone hurriedly fled outside the house. But as soon as the two men who were running at the front reached the door, they were struck into a sieve by the countless arrows that came in from outside the door.
"Don't run, don't be nervous, come back quickly, you'll die if you go out now." Xiao Ye hurriedly ran to the corner of the wall, shouting loudly for everyone to withdraw from the door.
But they didn't listen at all, perhaps they were so frightened by the sudden situation that they lost their souls, and all they thought about was the word escape.
The strong men at the door were all shot beyond recognition by the arrows, and their bodies fell on the threshold. But many of the people who followed behind didn't care about the situation in front of them at all, and only cared about running for their lives, all of them were like surprised mice, falling apart, each running northeast and west.
Hao Yue immediately stepped forward and grabbed one person back, hurriedly shrank back, and shouted loudly: "Don't run, the door is full of ghosts, and if you run out, you will be shot to death." ”
When Hao Yue was saying this, his eyes suddenly turned to a corner, and he found a teenager lying on the ground, and this teenager was He Wei. His face was covered in scars and he collapsed unconscious on the ground.
Hao Yue hurriedly stepped forward and quickly lifted He Wei on the ground and dragged him to the other end of the corner.
Xiao Ye in the corner looked back at the gate and found that there were already three or four bloody corpses lying on the threshold, and the red blood had stained the entire gate.
"Don't panic, don't be nervous, don't run around, come back to me." Xiao Ye roared again.
But all the people in the room still paid no attention, and like frightened birds, they kept rushing to the door outside the house, and they were so frightened that they could barely utter a complete sentence except for the screams of fear.
Xiao Ye saw that the situation was getting worse and worse, and from time to time he could hear the indifferent laughter of the ghost from outside the house, and even heard a ghost who threatened to set fire to the entire thatched house.
He immediately turned back to Hao Yue and said, "Brother, there is a secret passage in this thatched house, which I dug up last night in case of emergency, and before they all come, let's escape immediately." ”
Hao Yue nodded, and immediately got up and went to the corner to look for the dog hole, and after a while, he shifted his gaze to the narrow gap and exclaimed: "Oh, this is a secret passage, this is obviously a dog hole." ”
Xiao Ye said: "Hey, we can't care so much, it's important for us to escape, bring everything that can be saved, let them die if they can't be saved, we can't stay here anymore." ”
At this time, sharp arrows continued to shoot in from outside the door, and arrows like hedgehogs were stuck everywhere on the beams and walls. The laughter outside grew more and more cheering, as if they knew everything about the situation inside.
At this time, the most nervous should be Xiao Zhu, although he was the first to rush out, but his luck was not bad, and the six arrows in his body did not hit the vital parts. He covered the wounds on his body, lay in the corner, and kept shouting at Xiao Ye in his mouth: "Brother, come and save me!" ”
As soon as Xiao Ye turned around, he found that there was another person who had fallen, and he immediately rushed forward to help Xiao Zhu up, and carried him all the way to the edge of the dog hole.
In an instant, almost all the strong men in the entire thatched house had died, and there were bloody corpses lying everywhere on the ground in the house, and the thresholds were piled up with unrecognizable bones.
Before leaving, Xiao Ye hurriedly looked left and right, and said loudly to Hao Yue: "Oh no, why did your brother Zhanfei disappear, didn't you see him in the house just now?" ”
Hao Yue hurriedly replied: "Senior Xiao don't panic, my brother has already gone out to kill the enemy, help us buy some time to escape, don't worry, he has a unique skill, he has the courage of ten thousand people, but if you ride a thousand, there will definitely be no problems." ”
At this time, Xiao Ye breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly dragged Xiao Zhu into the dog hole. But at this moment, he suddenly felt a huge impact behind him, and at the same time, he felt his back getting colder and colder, and drops of cool liquid flowed onto his face.
Xiao Ye's heart was cold, and a tear couldn't help but shed in the corner of his eye, and he shouted with a sigh: "Brother, let's see you in the next life." ”
After Xiao Ye finished speaking, his body relaxed, and with a retraction of his hands, he threw Xiao Zhu behind him to the ground. Then he quickly burrowed into the dog hole alone.
Hao Yue on the side saw that Xiao Zhu's face was already full of blood, and his chest was already full of arrows from countless weapons, he immediately squatted down, gently blinded his dead eyes, and sighed: "Senior, go all the way, I will avenge you." ”
Hao Yue looked back at the door, his face filled with countless firelight. Then gritted his teeth and dragged He Wei and the two of them into the dog hole together.
The dog cave was pitch black, with barely the slightest light. Moreover, the passage is small and narrow, and it is difficult for a person to crawl in it, not to mention that there is a person behind him, which makes it even more difficult to move forward. The air inside is not fresh, and the more you drill in, the thinner the air becomes, and the body becomes hotter and hotter.
Xiao Ye, who was crawling at the front, suddenly listened, turned his back to Hao Yue, who was following closely behind, and said: "Brother, keep up, this passage is not long, we will be able to climb out soon, there is a lake outside the passage, after entering, you must hold your breath and swim all the way to the shore." ”
Hao Yue nodded and said, "Don't worry, senior, I'll be fine, you hurry up." ”
After Xiao Ye turned around, he continued to crawl forward, probably for about three minutes. The passages on both sides are getting narrower and narrower, and it can almost be said that there is no extra space, and the whole body can only crawl sideways, otherwise the head will be squeezed.
Hao Yue, who was crawling behind, also noticed this, and shouted angrily at Xiao Ye: "You old thing, why don't you dig a bigger hole, I still have one behind me now, how can I get out in a while." ”
"Hey, there's really no way, I was in a hurry yesterday, and I could only dig such a big cave, which is already very good, it's better than having nowhere to escape." Xiao Ye held his breath as he spoke, and his entire body began to rush forward.
Hao Yue really had no choice, so he had to throw He Wei down, and said to himself: "Brother, I'm really sorry, I can't run away with you, the road ahead is too narrow, I can't carry you on my back." ”
He Wei, who was lying in the passage, suddenly spoke: "Then you can go first, I will continue to sleep for a while, and I will follow you when the time comes." ”
Hao Yue was suddenly startled, and his heart was about to jump out of his throat, and then his face changed, and he said angrily at him: "You kid, how can you pretend to be dead?" I've been carrying you for so long. ”
