Chapter 14 Surprise and Joy
The eyes of the three hungry wolves shone with a green and faint light, and at night in the mountains, they could see the hair in people's hearts; Ying Shu unconsciously leaned towards the red sleeves: "Here, how can there be wolves?"
The Red Sleeves didn't understand either, they hadn't gone deep into the mountains, and they said that there should be no wolves in this place; There are wolves that shouldn't be there, and the most important thing to do now is to kill them: otherwise, their master and servant will fill the wolf's belly.
The three wolves were all wounded, but they were obviously hungry, and although they felt that the prey in front of them was not so well-behaved, they still cautiously approached the red-sleeved master and servant step by step.
Redsleeves took out his sword: "Let's get out." It's harder for us to deal with them in the hole. ”
Ying Shu was a little scared in the face of the hungry wolf: "Girl, let's climb up the tree." ”
Red Sleeves looked at the three-headed wolf: "Of course it would be nice if I could climb up." Although she had seen a wolf for the first time in the wild, she knew that it was intelligent; The three wolves were afraid that they would not give their master and servant time to climb the tree.
As soon as the red-sleeved master and servant moved, the three hungry wolves stopped, just whining, staring at the appearance of the red-sleeved duo ready to pounce at any moment: they were also waiting for the opportunity.
After exiting the hole, Redsleeves realized that the wolves had also been wounded, and they had been wounded by the sword: they had just escaped from the hands of humans.
Although Yingshu was a little afraid of wolves, he was more worried about the safety of Red Sleeves in his heart, and carried a sword to accompany Red Sleeves.
"They're hurt;" Red Sleeves said in a low voice, seeing that the hungry wolf's eyes did not blink, and he did not flinch: "But we can't take it lightly; It's not easy to kill them, or to scare them away. ”
When wolves are hungry, they will fight hard.
Ying Shu also saw the wounds on the wolf's body: "It can't be that those people were injured and fled to the side of this big mountain."
Red Sleeves nodded slightly: "It's possible." She raised her sword: "We will fight back to back in a while, these three wolves have not much strength, even if they can't kill them, they will be consumed." ”
Yingshu nodded, staring nervously at the wolf.
The three wolves finally moved, one wolf pounced on the red sleeves, and two wolves pounced on Yingshu: they could actually see Yingshu's fear of them, thinking that it was a soft persimmon.
When Red Sleeves stabbed the wolf who pounced on him with a sword, he had already taken out the stone in his other hand and threw it at the other wolf; Let Yingshu not be in a hurry.
Ying Shu saw that Red Sleeves still had to take care of herself, and all the fear in her heart was gone: she couldn't let the girl blindly protect her; She stabbed her sword at the lunging wolf, injuring the wolf.
The three wolves knew how to cooperate, and they actually fought with the red-sleeved master and servant, and for a while they couldn't take the red-sleeved master and servant, and the red-sleeved master and servant couldn't kill any of them.
Red Sleeves and Yingshu fought repeatedly, and they were extremely calm in the face of life and death: only in this way will there be a way to live; At this time, you can't be anxious or dry, you must be able to stabilize your mind.
The three wolves were getting agitated, for their strength was slowly disappearing, as Red Sleeves had expected: they hadn't eaten for more than two days.
Finally, the three wolves fought to the death, one wolf pounced on Yingshu, and two wolves pounced on Red Sleeves: they attacked Yingshu several times, but they were all blocked by Red Sleeves, and this time they directly wanted to seriously injure or kill Red Sleeves, the prey.
Redsleeves shouted, "Leave me alone. "If Ying Shu dealt with that seriously injured wolf at this time, he would definitely be able to kill it.
The long-experienced master and servant of the red sleeves have already been in touch with each other, and Ying Shu did not take care of the red sleeves at this time: because the red sleeves are not injured now, she and the red sleeves want to live, and they can only kill a wolf first.
Ying Shu didn't draw her sword immediately, but waited for the wolf to pounce on her before she stabbed it fiercely: it was too late for the wolf to dodge, and the sword passed through its throat.
However, its claws still hurt Yingshu's shoulder, which was not very heavy but not light.
The other two wolves did not give up, but pounced more fiercely: although one was killed, the other was also injured; The bloody breath spurred them on.
The two wolves were not much easier to deal with, and Red Sleeves knew that it was not possible for Yingshu's wound to bleed for a long time, and if it continued like this, only bleeding would make Yingshu weaken quickly.
Red Sleeves finally made a risky move, when a wolf pounced, she first threw a stone at another wolf, helping Yingshu repel it while shouting: "Squat"
As she drank, her sword was raised into the sky. The wolf had already pounced in front of him, but the red-sleeved master and servant had all squatted down, so it didn't hurt anyone, but was cut open by the red-sleeved sword.
Its dying struggles hurt the back of Red Sleeves' shoulder, tearing off a piece of her flesh.
Another wolf stood not far away, looking at the red-sleeved master and servant with green eyes; The red-sleeved master and servant raised their long swords and stared at it coldly; Finally, the wolf turned and left. It knew that it would not be able to kill its prey on its own.
The red-sleeved master and servant did not sit down on the ground and clean up the wound until the wolf had finished the tea effort.
By the time the wound was cleaned up, it was still dark. Redsleeves glanced at the wolf lying on the ground: "Peel off the skin, take our original animal skin, and get out of here." ”
Yingshu was stunned: "Where to go our injuries"
"Go to Fengchuan County." Red Sleeves looked out of the mountain: "We must leave this mountain, as long as these two wolf corpses are found by those people, our whereabouts will be exposed; And we can't afford to dig a big pit to bury the body, and we don't have that time. ”
"And I'm afraid that it's not the three wolves that have fled to the outskirts of the mountain, and that we won't be able to deal with any more beasts; Now, no one can recognize us; Unless we declare our home, we look like Orion right now. ”
"Female Orion" Ying Shu smiled bitterly, where is there a female Orion in this world. Even if there were, they could only fight some rabbits and the like, and it was impossible to kill the wolves.
"It's not a female hunter, it's two male hunters." Redsleeves smiled: "We change into men's clothes, and with the scars we have been wounded by, and these animal skins, we can easily blend into the city." ”
Ying Shu nodded after hearing this, and after cleaning up the wolf, Red Sleeves identified the direction, and Ying Shu walked in the direction of someone's house.
They need to find two men's clothes, and they can only be thieves again.
This time, however, they were lucky, and on the way they came across a house built by hunters to rest for a long time in the mountains; There were several shabby men's clothes inside.
Red Sleeves and Yingshu found two shorter clothes to change into, and combed their hair again; Then tidy up the house, lest it be seen that someone has been here. When the sky was slightly bright, Red Sleeves and Yingshu finally went down the mountain to Fengchuan County.
When Redsleeves and Yingshu arrived at the city gate at noon, the mountain guards found the dead wolf: it had been gnawed by other beasts, but the wounds on the wolf's body were still recognizable.
The faces of the guards turned green, it turned out that the person they were looking for had been in the mountains all along, and behind them, the guards immediately started to search again, this time they did not look deep into the mountains.
It was only in the afternoon of the same day that the emperor's order also arrived: let them return to Beijing immediately, there were important things to do at the border pass to press the border, and the emperor now needed a large number of secret guards to go out with the army.
Not long after the secret guards withdrew, Shen Miaoge and the others rushed to the foot of the mountain; At this time, Red Sleeves and Ying Shu had already entered the city.
Red Sleeves and Ying Shu sold the animal skins, especially the two wolf skins for a good price: if it weren't for the big scars, the price could have doubled.
The income from the sale of animal skins was already extremely good, and Red Sleeves and Yingshu exchanged some of the silver tickets they had originally brought with them, and bought an inconspicuous courtyard in the city.
Of course, Red Sleeves and Yingshu also went to buy wound medicine to clean up the wound again, and the plan of the master and servant was to recuperate from the injury, so they looked for an official to follow the road to find Shen Miaoge and others.
There was no one in the city who suspected the red-sleeved master and servant, and they finally settled down to recuperate from their wounds, and lived in seclusion and did not go out to show off; But after about two days of putting his heart down, Red Sleeves began to vomit nonstop.
Red Sleeves and Yingshu's master and servant were a little stunned, and after they were relatively silent for a long time, Yingshu jumped up and went to find the doctor without saying a word.
After the doctor came to check the pulse, he said something that made the red-sleeved master and servant not know whether to be happy or sad: Mrs. Zun's body is fine, but she is happy; There is also the need to nourish more, because the blood is greatly lost, and the fetus must be carefully and carefully preserved.
Next, he told a lot of words, not to let Red Sleeves move around too much, not to let Red Sleeves get angry and angry, etc., and after prescribing medicine for fetal and blood nourishment, the doctor left.
Red Sleeves and Yingshu sat facing each other, but no one spoke.
There is joy, but this child came so unfortunately: if you want to protect the fetus, you can't leave Fengchuan County and walk around, let alone ride a horse.
This child didn't want Red Sleeves, and he just turned this thought: because even if he didn't want this child, he still needed to recuperate after the miscarriage, and he couldn't leave Fengchuan County immediately.
Although he was concerned about Shen Miaoge and others, the red-sleeved master and servant could only re-plan and start preparing to live in Fengchuan County for a period of time, and after the tire was solid, he would buy a carriage and go on the road.
Of course, this method is not very good, but it can only be done at the moment; So the master and servant of Red Sleeves and Yingshu were no longer brothers, but became husband and wife, and in the neighborhood, they became a young couple who eloped and fled; But there is no evidence, just everyone's speculation, and no one has reported to the official or anything.
Of course, there is no injustice or hatred, and the common people will not do such boring things.
Red Sleeves and Ying Shu didn't dare to buy a little girl to come over to serve, and all the trivial tasks such as going out to do procurement were all undertaken by Ying Shu alone; Although Yingshu, the little husband, always has three aunts and six mothers-in-law pointing fingers behind her back, but the hideous scar on her face makes everyone dare not say anything in person.
When night falls, Red Sleeves will always look at the stars in the sky in a daze: Miaoge, where are you going to find me and Yingshu
