Chapter 305: Escape
Liu Man'er and the others had just run to this camp not far away, and the enemy troops outside quickly attacked, and the soldiers in the camp had already retreated, so these enemy soldiers set fire to the barracks.
The enemy army knew that the people of the Northern Desert Army had escaped, so they naturally would not give up, and they divided into two roads again, leaving people in the camp to find the remaining soldiers and grain and grass, while others went to chase Liu Man'er and others.
They were all on horseback, and most of the soldiers on the Northern Desert Army's side, except for a small number of people on horseback, were infantry, and if they continued like this, they would soon catch up.
The place where the people on the side of the Northern Desert Army fled was the place where they went to the decisive battle in the morning, and they thought that if they could meet with the army, these enemy troops were few after all, and they should not dare to act rashly, as long as they survived until reinforcements came, they would be fine.
In fact, it is exactly like this, Ye Yuan knew the news, and was personally rushing with reinforcements, if Liu Man'er ran with this large army, she should be fine, however, she didn't know if she could run for so long.
After all, she was injured on her foot, and every step she took at the moment was like stepping on the tip of a knife, and she was holding Handsome, carrying a bow and arrows on her back, and carrying a weight to go so far, she was already a little tired, and it was all up to her breath to continue at this moment.
The sound of horses' hooves chasing in her ears was endless, and Liu Man'er was horrified to find that she had already run to the back of the team.
Once caught up by the enemy, the person behind her is the one who sent her to death, and even if she encounters a rescuer, the enemy will release a wave of arrows at will, and they don't have a shield, and not dying is simply an eye-opener.
Although she had run with all her might, the distance between her and the team was getting farther and farther, and after thinking about it, she simply ran to the side and left the group.
There was a hill not far away, and it should be fine for her to run into it to take shelter.
Thinking about it, she quickened her pace.
But the sound of horses' hooves in her ears was getting closer and closer to here, and she originally thought that a person like her should not be taken seriously, but she didn't expect that the enemy army didn't want to let go of any fish that slipped through the net.
She hugged Shuai Shuai, although she sped up her pace, but after all, she was not as fast as the enemy's war horse, and because she was worried that if she ran too fast, Shuai Shuai's wound would crack open, and she had to hold its legs.
Shuai Shuai is a big monkey, although he is not as good as a person, but he also has twenty or thirty pounds, and he runs all the way on his back, and Liu Man'er is already out of breath.
Feeling that four or five people were catching up with her on horseback, and getting closer and closer to her, Liu Man'er simply prepared the bow and arrow, took out the arrow from behind, and turned her head.
Seeing that the horses were getting closer and closer to her, the men on horseback were also ready to shoot their bows and arrows at her, and the arrows were shot around her.
It seems that because she is a woman, they want to catch it alive.
This happened to give Liu Man'er almost a chance to escape, and she forced herself to calm down, just as these people in front of her were giant muntjacs, her prey.
She shot an arrow, and the armor of one of the first men was pierced by the arrow, and it hit the heart, but in an instant, the man fell from his horse.
Liu Man'er shot a second arrow, and the second person fell.
Immediately she ran two steps, dodging the three arrows that flew at her, and with another thud, the third man fell.
At the time of life and death, she seemed to have become a marksman, she remembered what Ye Yuan said to her many years ago when she was hunting, the prey is not a still life, you must calculate the speed of the prey and follow the direction of the run, so that you can shoot.
Ye Yuan relied on experience, and she relied on mathematics, so Ye Yuan praised her for learning quickly.
Now his words came back to her mind, and she was very calm, and saw that the horse running towards her was an arrow.
One more man fell, and there was only one man left, who was too frightened to go any further, and after hastily firing an arrow, he lifted the reins and planned to turn his horse's head and flee.
However, he had barely gone far when an arrow came from behind him and pierced his heart.
Five people were killed by Liu Man'er in an instant.
When she had finished killing, all her composure had receded, and horror came to her mind, and she saw the bow and arrow in her hand, and there was a trance, and with a click, the bow and arrow fell to the ground, and she stood in place, staggering, not knowing what to do.
"What to do, Shuaishuai, I killed someone." Liu Man'er lowered her head and said to Shuai Shuai.
However, Shuai Shuai whimpered and did not answer her, the pain made Shuai Shuai almost faint, Liu Man'er's running all the way just now finally made its wound crack, and at this moment, the bottom of the cloth bag on Liu Man'er's body was all wet with blood.
The sound of blood dripping on the grass brought Liu Man'er back to her senses, and she picked up the arrow that had fallen on the grass and hurried into the woods.
After a while, several men on horseback came to where she stood, and looked up at the ground, and they saw a line of blood, and with the blood, they ran into the woods.
Liu Man'er has been listening to the movement outside, and naturally knows the sound of someone catching up, however, Shuai Shuai has been dripping blood, and she can't cover it with her hands, so she really doesn't know what to do.
Unbeknownst to her, her own paws were bleeding too.
There was a tree hole not far away, Liu Man'er found a few leaves to wrap Shuai Shuai's wound, hid it in the tree hole, and covered the traces, carved a mark with an arrow in the upper room of the tree hole, and then ran to the other side.
The blood stains on the soles of her feet pointed the way for the pursuers, and no one found Shuaishuai, and everyone came at her.
Liu Man'er felt the sound behind her in horror, she didn't know how they found her, she didn't want to kill anymore.
However, she had little strength left.
Simply stopped under a big tree, thought about it, she began to climb the tree, she hadn't climbed a tree for a long time, she was a little rusty with this skill, just climbed the tree, there was a sharp pain on the sole of her right foot, she lowered her head, and finally found that the ball of her foot was bleeding.
"That's why." Liu Man'er let out a long breath in her heart, slipped down from the tree, took off her coat and knotted her shoes, and continued to run.
The pursuers soon came to the bottom of the tree, and they found blood under the tree, but when they looked up, they saw no one, and there was no blood everywhere.
Liu Man'er hid in the bushes not far away, and she didn't make a sound, and she watched them leave and come back, and then leave again.
It wasn't until she was sure that they had left that Liu Man'er breathed a sigh of relief and ran out of the bushes.
After walking under the tree and resting for a while, she drank a sip of water, ate some dry food, and bandaged herself again.
There were many mosquitoes in the woods, so she put her dirty clothes back on her body, intending to find Shuai Shuai.
Then, as soon as she stood up, she felt a knife-like pain in her feet, and she forced herself to take two steps, and her head was dizzy, and she fell to the ground, unconscious.
When I woke up, it was completely dark, and the whole forest was very quiet, except for a few birds that made oozing calls.
She clasped her hands on her knees, remembering the people she had killed during the day, and there seemed to be a strange sound in her ears, she was so scared that she didn't even dare to raise her head, it felt as if someone had slapped her on the back, she screamed in horror, and trembled and touched behind her, but it turned out to be just a fallen leaf.
Call......
With a long exhale, she held her bow and arrow in one hand and the arrow in the other.
The moon climbed out of the clouds and shone through the dense foliage, making the whole forest more tranquil, and the shadows of the leaves changed into different shapes when the wind blew.
Liu Man'er suddenly saw a headless corpse appear in front of her eyes, and although she knew it was a hallucination, she still couldn't help but be horrified.
Probably it is human nature to be afraid of ghosts, and this fear makes her heart restless and uncomfortable.
simply clenched the bow and arrow, and secretly said in his heart: Come on, come on, I killed you, come to me for revenge, when you are a living person, you can't help me, is it that when you are a dead person, I will still be afraid that you will not succeed?
What's more, everyone is a ghost, but I am a ghost who has been resurrected once, and if you die, you will die forever.
When Liu Man'er thought of this, she actually laughed, and felt that there was nothing to be afraid of.
That's right, she is a terrible ghost herself, a terrible ghost that the king of Hades doesn't dare to accept, even so, what else is she afraid of?
Thinking of this, her heart gradually calmed down, and the shadows in front of her disappeared in front of her.
Now she was thinking about how to live, after all, she had only survived once, and she didn't want to waste her life in vain.
The wound on her foot had begun to inflame, and she now felt a headache and brain heat, and her whole body was weak, although it was night, and the cool breeze was blowing, but when she touched her burning body, she felt cold and hot, and very uncomfortable.
Her brain also became confused, she was worried about Shuai Shuai's situation, but at this moment, she couldn't care about anything.
Leaning against the tree, looking at the moon and stars in the sky through the leaves, until the moon was hidden in the clouds again, and when the stars became dim, she closed her eyes again and fell into a deep sleep.
On the other side, Ye Yuan and the others had already met with those who were guarding the camp, and they didn't find Liu Man'er, and he was almost going crazy.
He completely forgot about his wounds, and even if he took someone to look for it, however, this place was so big, no one knew where she had gone, but after looking for it all night, he still couldn't find anyone.
When he returned to the tent, his eyes were bloody, and the audience told the reason, and learned that the culprit was Vice General Liu, so he immediately had people pull him out and beat him with fifty sticks.
These fifty army sticks went down, and most of Vice General Liu's life was immediately gone, Ye Yuan asked people to guard him well, if Liu Man'er was not found for a day, it can be imagined how difficult the life of Vice General Liu would be. However, at this moment, even the king of Dingbei did not dare to intercede with Vice General Liu, after all, he delayed the military situation.
If it weren't for Liu Man'er this time, not to mention that the entire camp couldn't be saved, at least their grain and grass couldn't be saved, and now although the camp is gone, at least the grain and grass are still there.
