The two ran for a long time, but they didn't see the pursuers behind them.
In the end, Xu Han had an idea and pulled Qin Keqing into an alley, which was able to temporarily deceive the chasing Shura.
Call!
Call!
The two of them gasped for breath after the catastrophe, and then glanced at each other, but for some reason they both withdrew their eyes at the moment when their eyes met.
The atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
Of course, there are also questions that keep popping up in Qin Keqing's mind at this moment.
After all, she felt that she didn't know Xu Han, so why did he sacrifice his life to save him, Qin Keqing couldn't figure this out anyway.
"It's safe. Qin Keqing patted his chest and sighed, trying to resolve the embarrassing atmosphere at the moment.
"Is it safe?" Xu Han smiled at that time, "There is no place in this world that is safe for Senluo Palace. ”
He knows too well the methods of the Senluo Palace, even in the palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the people that the Senluo Palace wants to kill will definitely be able to kill.
"Senluo Palace?" Qin Keqing had obviously also heard of the name of Senluo Palace, and at that time she let out an exclamation, turning her head to look at Xu Han in surprise, she never thought that it was the famous Senluo Hall that was chasing them, and when she thought of those terrifying rumors about it, Qin Keqing's face suddenly turned pale.
"Oh, it's okay, I'm here. Xu Han saw Qin Keqing's worry at this moment, he comforted him as gently as possible, and then took Qin Keqing's hand again.
Maybe it was because she had survived the previous life-and-death battle, Qin Keqing was also a little sober, she naturally knew that it was an extremely inappropriate thing to be held by a strange man, so she subconsciously wanted to break free, but at that time, she suddenly caught a glimpse of Xu Han holding his hand, and under the torn clothes, there were several bloody blood marks. She knew that these blood marks were all caused by him to protect her, and her heart was inexplicably soft at that time, and the struggling movements on her hands stopped vividly, so she let Xu Han pull her into the shadow of the alley.
......
When the day was bright, Xu Han led Qin Keqing to a forest outside Jingsheng City.
They had been on the run for a long time, and they had encountered Shura who was chasing them more than once in the middle - their matter had been reported to the higher-ups, but for some reason, the Shura sent to hunt them down was much less than Xu Han expected.
Xu Han secretly speculated to himself that it was probably because of the assassination of Long Congyun that there was some chaos, otherwise, with the style of Sen Luo Palace, the entire Jingsheng City would have been blocked at this moment, and how could they be given a chance to escape from the Ascension?
Regardless of whether what he thought was true or not, he finally escaped with Qin Keqing.
The two of them ran all night in fear, already exhausted, and when they found a secret place, they both sat down there.
After a slight gasp, Qin Keqing, whose face was flushed, suddenly remembered the wound on Xu Han's hand, she turned around, took out the medicine she was carrying, and wanted to help him bandage it.
But only then did he touch Xu Han slightly, and Xu Han's body was agitated, stood up, and looked at Qin Keqing with great vigilance.
Years of bloody fighting have already made Xu Han have an instinct like a beast, and he subconsciously guards against everyone. And when he saw the surprise and grievance in Qin Keqing's eyes at the moment, he realized that he was too suspicious.
"I'm sorry. He said apologetically, and sat back down again.
Maybe the person in this world who can make him completely trust, except for Ah Sheng back then, is only the girl in front of him.
"It doesn't matter. Although Qin Keqing was taken aback by Xu Han's reaction, he still understood his behavior. She shook her head, leaned forward, tore off another piece of fabric from her clothes, and began to carefully bandage it with medicine.
Qin Keqing lowered his head, his hair was picked up by the night wind, brushing Xu Han's cheeks.
Even in the face of life and death adversity, Xu Han, who had never frowned, inexplicably felt an indescribable nervousness in his heart at that time.
It was the first time he had been so intimate with a girl since he could remember.
Grunt.
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and the corner of his eye couldn't help but glance at Qin Keqing, who was bowing his head, and carefully looked at her who he hadn't seen for four years.
She is sixteen years old, the same size as him, with good facial features, not a national beauty, but she has a little bit of jasper.
Especially at this moment, she was engrossed in mentioning Xu Han to clean up the foreign objects on the wound, which made Xu Han inexplicably fascinated.
"Alright. At this time, Qin Keqing bandaged Xu Han's wound, she clapped her hands and raised her head to look at Xu Han. Xu Han, who was caught off guard, hurriedly withdrew his gaze like a naughty boy who had done something bad and was discovered.
Qin Keqing was stunned for a moment, and probably guessed that Xu Han was secretly looking at her, her face turned red, she fell silent again, and sat aside prettyly.
There was a long silence between the two again.
"You... Why save me. After hesitating for a long time, Qin Keqing finally couldn't suppress the doubts in his heart, and asked in a low voice.
Why?
Xu Han was stunned, and he also asked himself the same question in his heart.
He had been in the Senluo Temple for four years, and as long as he was stable for another year, he would be able to regain his freedom.
He didn't seem to have to risk his life to save her.
Is it just to repay the kindness of half a bun a few years ago?
Of course not.
But in the same way, his commitment to the Senluo Hall is not as simple as simply to live.
If this is the case, he can find an ordinary big family and sell himself, why should he suffer from this Sen Luo Palace?
He followed the old beggar as a beggar for twelve years.
He had questions of one kind or another about the world and about himself more than once.
And when he saw that the girl who had saved him was sold, he wanted to do something, and he felt that he should do something. But the old beggar told him, "You are a beggar, and a beggar must look like a beggar." You can't do anything.
At that time, Xu Han finally figured out something.
He is not to be a beggar or a slave to anyone.
In other words, he thinks that people should not live for the sake of living, and that people should have some meaning in living. What that meant was he didn't know, but he wanted to find it.
In order to get rid of such an identity, he chose the Senluo Temple. And the original intention of all this was that he watched Qin Keqing being sold back then.
If he killed her for his life now, what was the point of the ordeal he had endured for the past four years?
Therefore, it is not so much that he saved Qin Keqing, but that he saved himself.
It's just that Xu Han's groan at the moment fell in Qin Keqing's eyes, but it made this girl think that Xu Han had something unspeakable. She smiled and said, "If it's inconvenient, then don't say it." But there was a bit of disappointment on his face.
Then she seemed to think of something, turned her head to look at Xu Han again and asked, "Then can you tell me what your name is?" or let me see what you look like?"
Xu Han had a black cloth on his face from beginning to end, which inevitably made Qin Keqing curious in his heart. After all, if the two of them met in Pingshui, she really couldn't figure out why Xu Han would save her, but if she knew, Qin Keqing couldn't remember when he knew such a character.
This request obviously surprised Xu Han, and he was stunned, as if it was due to a long while, before he shook his head in silence.
"Why?" Qin Keqing was not satisfied with Xu Han's response, she stood up and asked, her voice unconsciously high-pitched.
"It doesn't do you any good to know too much. Xu Han said. And in fact, it is true, Qin Keqing can't recognize him, he is just a beggar on the street, even if she was kind enough to give him half a bun back then, but who would really remember such a beggar? On the contrary, the current Qin Keqing doesn't know much about Senluodian's plan, so Senluodian has the possibility of letting her go, otherwise... It will only bring her death.
"But..."Qin Keqing's body took a step at that time, and he still had to say something. But seeing that Xu Han was lying down against the trunk of the tree at this moment, she closed her eyes and recuperated, obviously she had no intention of talking to her, so she swallowed back the words that came to her mouth.
And Xu Han's sitting was two hours later, and the sky had already brightened, but Xu Han still had no intention of getting up.
Qin Keqing was inevitably a little anxious, they were still being hunted down, she didn't think this was a good time to rest, so she hesitated again and again, but still asked, "Hey, what are you doing?
"Don't worry, it's almost there. Xu Han squinted his eyes and responded lightly.
And at this moment, a hoarse long cry suddenly sounded in the already brightened sky, accompanied by a sound of flapping wings, a black crow slowly fell from the sky and landed on Xu Han's shoulder.
Qin Keqing was stunned for a moment, but he restrained his words.
Xu Han seemed to have expected this, he reached out and gently stroked the black crow's head, then placed it on his arm, and took out a piece of letter paper from his ankle.
"The assassination failed, Canghailiu rescued Long Congyun, and now Long Congyun is cultivating in Gupeng Town, take your little lover to find him, never go back to Senluo Palace. ”
The content on the letter paper is extremely simple, but it points out a clear way for Xu Han today.
As for who sent this letter, Xu Han could guess a few points, he knew that once he was arrested, the relationship between Yuan Xiucheng and him would definitely not be hidden, so he expected that Yuan Xiucheng would find a way to help him get out early in the morning.
But as for what Yuan Xiucheng's purpose was, he didn't know.
He only vaguely remembered that when he woke up in the Shura Field, he once blamed himself for killing Liu Sheng because of his woman's kindness. And just when he fell into such guilt and couldn't extricate himself, it was the man who suddenly appeared and told him that no matter what he wanted to do for Liu Sheng, the premise was that he had to live.
That conversation woke up Xu Han at that time.
That's why there is the current Xu Han.
"Let's go. Xu Han stuffed the letter paper into his arms, raised his hands, put the black crow in his hand back into the sky, turned his head to look at Qin Keqing, who was still stunned, and said.
"Where are you going?" Qin Keqing asked subconsciously.
Xu Han smiled and said, "Send you home." ”
