Chapter 1: A Ghost Fell from the Sky? Or is it a ghost with a hole in the brain?

Next Chapter

On the forest path, two bright half-blood horses are galloping.

The scorching summer day is still not as cold as the physical and mental pain.

You can't stop, you can't stop for a moment.

Thick clouds of lead ash pressed down and accumulated overhead. On the narrow forest road, the horse's hooves are dusty, and where they pass, the horses' hooves rub white marks.

The sound of the horse's hooves behind him was getting closer and closer, Yin Jingyan licked his dry lips, numbly pulled out a bow and arrow from behind his back and put it on the string, and said lightly: "The last one."

Seven consecutive days of chasing and killing have made his hands clean, but fortunately, the other party has also been injured.

Ignoring the sound of the heavy object falling to the ground behind him, he quickly raised a whip, and the horse neighed in pain and continued to run forward.

Yixuan, who was following behind him, was also embarrassed, clutching the reins, but he looked back sharply after hearing a sharp whistle in the distance.

These bitches raised them with an iron determination to keep their lives here.

"Shizi," Yixuan turned his head with a solemn look in his eyes, and gasped sharply, "You go first, and your subordinates will go down and lead them away." ”

"Shut up," Yin Jingyan looked ahead, but what he said could not be refused, "In a few more miles, we will reach Hancheng, and you and I will definitely get out alive." ”

"Shizi," Yixuan smiled with white teeth and pulled the reins violently, "My subordinates won't listen to you this time, if you go back alive this time, you will definitely ask Bai Xuan to be a beautiful girl." He waved his hand and led his horse down another path.

"Yixuan."

Yin Jingyan faintly revealed a hint of tiredness between his eyebrows, closed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, his eyes were cold, after all, it was the opposite.

The surrounding area is densely wooded and overgrown with shrubs, and it is by no means a good place to easily evade the pursuit of killers, but this is the closest shortcut to the imperial capital through Hancheng.

They don't have much to choose from, and if they do, they can only give it a go.

After two days and two nights of driving, the horses were overwhelmed, and after running for three miles, Yin Jingyan had to abandon the horse and stagger forward from the grove.

He had specially observed the terrain when he passed by before, this forest is going east and west, the trail is only this one, although there are many slopes, but how rugged it is, there are very few roads that can really walk, there is one in the south, which is blocked by the river sand, and then you can see the boundary of Hancheng if you go north.

After Hancheng, it is the imperial capital of the Qi Dynasty.

Groping all the way, one foot deep and one foot shallow, over the gentle slope that descends one after another.

The sun is setting, and the twilight is coming.

In half an hour, it will be dark.

Yin Jingyan gritted his teeth and tore off strips of cloth from the corners of his clothes to wrap the wounds tightly, so as not to attract the smell of blood away from the unknown beasts nearby.

He hadn't closed his eyes for a long time, but now was not the time to rest. As long as it was the middle of the night, he could take advantage of the darkness to find a place where it was not obvious to rest.

As soon as his hind feet stepped on a piece of high ground, he heard the sound of the soles of his feet rubbing against the ground not far behind him.

It's coming so fast!

Yin Jingyan forcibly suppressed the premonition he least wanted in his heart, and ran sideways to the small hill on the left, ignoring the three-seven-twenty-one, protecting his head and jumping.

The previous slopes were gentle, but I didn't expect that this time it was a steep slope, he slipped violently and sharply, and the sharp pebbles and messy branches under his body rubbed the wound intentionally or unintentionally, and it hurt hotly.

Yin Jingyan pulled out a dagger from his waist and forcibly stopped his body, at this time, it was getting dark and it was downhill, and he tripped over the stones, and his center of gravity was unbalanced.

“…… Hmm. ”

.

A mile down the slope, in a cave.

Su Xiao felt that there was no more unlucky person in this world than her, and thinking about it, it really responded to the old saying that the old man often said - if you walk too much at night, you will encounter ghosts.

It's just a "ghost" when you encounter it, it's still a "ghost" with a hole in your brain.

I was stunned when she was knocked down and brought here by covering her mouth stiffly, and then, with a tilt of her head, she fainted.

What's going on with this rhythm of not wiping your ass after messing with things?!

Su Xiao snorted twice, spit out the smell of blood in his mouth, and scolded a few words, so that he had a little bit of heart to see the "ghost." ”

"It's a good look, it's just that this body injury is a bit of a diaphragm," Su Xiao squatted next to the "ghost", poked it with a branch, saw that there was no response, and muttered a few more words, then took out a red medicine from his waist and forcibly broke his mouth and stuffed it, "For the sake of your half-dead appearance, my aunt and grandmother will be merciful to save your life." ”

This time, she brought three pills of this medicine, and now it seems that it is going to be used on a "ghost", and it is also a "ghost" that smashed her from an unknown source.

Thinking of this, Su Xiao felt a faint pain.

"Tsk, it's not bad." Su Xiao muttered, and it took a long time to rip off the tattered clothes on the "ghost", and treat the wound simply, before getting up and leaving the cave to pick up some firewood and come in.

The wind is strong under the mountain, and even if this person is not hurt to death, he is afraid that he will be frozen to death.

Coincidentally, the "ghost" of the world launched a high fever in the middle of the night.

The wounds on his body were scorching hot, and within a while, they became colder and colder, and the combination of ice and fire was even more uncomfortable, like being suddenly thrown into a hot oil pot in a snowy mountain, tormenting over and over.

In a daze, he faintly heard the sound of someone's whispering thoughts, and then the coldness on his forehead made him want to get closer, closer, closer, just like back then.

…… Back then?

Yes, what is that man's name and what does he look like? Headache...... I can't remember it, why can't I remember it?

No, he can't forget, he must not forget, he can't ......

After several days of chasing fatigue, coupled with a high fever that did not go away, he fell asleep in a groggy and slept very peacefully.

Two more days and one night passed.

Su Xiao took the branch he picked up, poked the "ghost" on the ground for a while, and said with his cheeks a little irritable: "I've been sleeping for two days, shouldn't the fever go away?" Stretched out his hand and touched the temperature, seeing that it was normal, he was even more puzzled, and a bad premonition came to his heart.

"Could it be true that my aunt and grandmother died of the doctor?! Bah, blah, blah, it's all to blame for Qingzhuo's stinky crow's mouth, a good and not a bad spirit. Oops, anyway, even if I don't save him, he still kicks his legs, and now he has a whole corpse, thinking about it, my aunt and grandmother can be regarded as accumulating virtue for my ancestors......"

Su Xiao was still muttering to himself, not paying attention to the people lying on the ground at all.

Yin Jingyan was woken up by the annoying chatter of a fly in his ears, moved his eyelids, and barely opened his eyes for a long time before the light was condensed back. Looking up at the strange cave overhead, and listening to the fragmented thoughts in his ears, he suddenly remembered the events of that night, and he got up together, struggling to sit up despite the tearing of the wound.

Su Xiao was startled by his movements, and even forgot to dodge, the two of them were almost face to face.

Hey? This man has a bloody mole in his ear too?

"Where's my clothes?" Xu was due to a fever, his throat was dry, and even his voice was a little hoarse.

"I threw it away," Su Xiao touched the tip of his nose, but he had a rare sense of guilt that he had never felt before, and said, "Your clothes are stuck with the wounds, I have no choice but to cut your clothes with a dagger." It just so happened that there were a few nasty ghosts outside, huh...... I ripped off their clothes and put them on for you, I know you don't like it, but after all, it's a hiss in the wilderness - let go, you're hurting me?! ”

"Who told you to go?" Yin Jingyan grabbed her wrist tightly, her eyes were cold, her handsome face was full of gloom, and she stared at her deadly, "I said, who told you to find them?!" ”

"If you have a problem, let go, let go of your aunt!" Su Xiao has a good temper, but it doesn't mean that she has no temper, didn't she dress him? As for it, it's like losing a baby.

Yin Jingyan was also a little aware of some gaffes, and the strength in his hand was slightly loose, but he still stared at her: "Next time, don't leave by yourself."

His gaze is tight, and he does not back down.

"I know, I know, I'm not stupid, I have nothing to do to provoke them." Su Xiao hurriedly rubbed her wrist, but she didn't forget to say a few words in her mouth, she felt that if she didn't speak, this person might rush over again to find death.

The corners of his eyes are slightly red, and he looks at them, and they are all blue.

Yin Jingyan ignored her accusation, slowly sat up, kneaded the bones all over her body, ate some fruit, and barely stabilized her body and stood up after half an hour.

"It's not a good place to stay long, we need to leave now." After a long time, seeing that no one responded, Yin Jingyan walked over with a frown, bowed his head slightly and asked, "It really hurts?" ”

Hearing this, Su Xiao raised his head and stared at him viciously, gritted his teeth and said, "For the sake of your injury, yes, I don't care about you aunt and grandma, I'll make a note for you first."

"......" Why have so many years passed, and still hold grudges like when I was a child?!

The prince was silent.

After thinking about it for a while, forget it, let's find a chance for her to beat her back.
