In summer, Guigu Mountain, located in the Central Plains, is high and densely forested, and the morning mist is shrouded, which can not be dispersed for a long time, and it is a vibrant scene. A middle-aged man with a sword and a pregnant woman quickly moved from the foot of the mountain to the mountain.

He scurried through the dense forest and came to the mountainside, feeling very tired and looking for a hidden place to rest. At this moment, he saw a cave that seemed to be hidden, so he walked over and brushed away a layer of vines, which was indeed a cave.

He carried the pregnant woman on his back and hurried into the cave. The hole was small enough for them to pass through, and the hole was a little bigger enough for people to walk upright, which made the cave dark and damp. Under the faint light of the cave entrance, he saw a large bluestone lying flat in the cave, so he put the pregnant woman down on the bluestone safely.

The pregnant woman sat on the big bluestone, and her expression was very painful.

"Master, are you alright?" the middle-aged man asked.

The pregnant woman shook her hand at him and motioned for him to help her lie down.

She lay down with the help of the middle-aged man. At this time, she seemed to be in more pain, and she couldn't help but moan, and her hands, feet, and body shook involuntarily.

The middle-aged man was deeply disturbed by this, but he was also at a loss. Then I heard the pregnant woman screaming, and her hands and feet moved, and a baby croaked to the ground. At the same time, a stone monument fell from the top of her head, and suddenly, a flash of golden light shot from the top of the woman's head towards the newborn baby. The middle-aged man was startled, and he hurriedly walked over to see that the baby was not harmed. He also clearly saw that the baby was a boy with a purple-red birthmark on his left shoulder. The woman was in a coma due to excessive pain and bleeding.

Just as the middle-aged man was trying to give first aid to the pregnant woman, he suddenly heard a voice outside the cave, and he was shocked.

"Oh no! ”

The middle-aged man wanted to take the mother and baby away, but he was afraid of meeting them on the way. If that's the case, not only will he not be able to save their mother and son, but he will even have to take his own life. His mind turned: "Now I have to lead them away, and then come to this cave again to save their mother and son." ”

Having made up his mind, the middle-aged man stuffed the mother's milk into the baby's mouth to prevent the baby from crying again, and then ran out of the hole. At the entrance of the cave, he restored the vine man, which had been brushed away when he entered the cave, to hide it. He quickly left the mouth of the cave, but had not gone far when he saw a group of people approaching him, and he hid himself beside a large tree, and heard them speaking distinctly.

"I heard a baby crying from here just now, why is it gone now?"

"Yes, isn't the pregnant woman Chen Zhongda brought to give birth?"

"Quite possibly. ”

"We obviously saw Chen Zhongda go up this mountain, why did we chase him and disappear?"

"If we can catch him, we will know the whereabouts of the pregnant woman. ”

"I don't think he can run far, it's around here, we search carefully, and it is possible to find it. ”

......

The middle-aged man was Chen Zhongda.

In order to lure them away, Chen Zhongda drew the sword in his waist and took the initiative to meet them. In less than three rounds, his swordsmanship was indeed powerful, and the few people in front of him fell under his sword in an instant. But the people who followed after saw that the person in front of them who had killed and injured them with a sword was the person they had been chasing and killing, Chen Zhongda, and they all surrounded them. Chen Zhongda swung his sword to break through the encirclement, deliberately retreating while fighting, leading them all the way down the mountain.

Chen Zhongda fought with the group at the foot of the mountain, and believing that his goal of diverting them had been achieved, he fought his way out and escaped from their siege. And the group of people who knew that they were in hot pursuit, and it was still difficult for Chen Zhongda to get out.

"No, we've been tricked!" suddenly shouted someone in the group.

So they took the initiative to give up the pursuit of Chen Zhongda and shrank back.

When Chen Zhongda saw this, he knew that his plan to divert the tiger from the mountain had been seen through by them, and he had to rush in front of them to rescue their mother and son.

Chen Zhongda used light skills, went up the mountain from the path, quickly reached the mountainside, and when he came to the entrance of the cave, he found that the vine man at the entrance of the cave was obviously passive. He didn't think much of it, and just slipped headlong into the hole. The mother was dead, and the baby was missing. He was taken aback, how many question marks flashed through his mind.

"Could it be that some of the men who pursued them were not led away, but stayed here, discovered this hidden hole, and when they entered the cave, killed the mother and took the baby away?"

"Is there some fierce beast in this cave that has taken the baby boy away? But why hasn't the mother been eaten?"

......

He took a closer look at the cave, and there was indeed someone in the cave. He looked again at the dead woman and saw that there was no sign of injury, it was definitely not killed by someone, let alone a fierce beast that had entered the cave.

All the questions were denied by Chen Zhongda, and he couldn't find any reason for it for a while.

The mother is dead, and where is the baby boy going? dead or alive? No clue can be found in this hole. If the baby boy died, all his recent efforts would be in vain.

He thought of committing suicide to thank the Lord for his kindness, but he also thought about how to explain to his master if he went to the underworld.

"I can't die until I hear from the baby boy for sure. So, he decided to live.

So he was in the hole, and he quickly dug a pit with his sword, and buried the dead woman in it.

He knelt down in front of the mother's grave, bowed, and said, "It was Chungda's failure to protect his wife that caused this fate." After the autonomous man committed suicide with a sword, Zhongda desperately brought his pregnant wife from Qin to Zhao, but he really counted on Zhao State, which was his wife's maiden family, but he didn't expect to be hunted down and killed. Chungda is incompetent, the current wife is dead, the baby boy is missing, and Chungda is really an unforgivable sin. But Zhongda swears here, please rest assured that no matter whether the baby is dead or alive, it will be a hundred things to be found. With that, he hurried out of the cave.

When Chen Zhongda walked out of the cave, he looked at the entrance of the cave again, and he wanted to find any clues about the disappearance of the baby. He broke off the long vine that hung on the entrance of the cave, and vaguely saw that there were scratches on the stone wall of the cave entrance, and he carefully identified the scratches, which had been scratched, although it was an ancient font, but it could still be avoided to guess, it was the three words "Guigu Cave". He thought that this mountain was called Guigu Mountain, and this cave was called Guigu Cave, and the name of this cave just echoed the name of this mountain, which was not surprising.

Just as Chen Zhongda wanted to leave the entrance of the Guigu Cave, he heard a burst of words, and he knew very well that it was likely that the group of people who were chasing them had come up the mountain again. So, he quickly went into hiding.

"When we met Chen Zhongda, it seemed like he was here. "There was humanity among those people.

"Then we searched around for a long time, but we didn't find any clues about the pregnant woman? I think I may have remembered the wrong place. The other man said again.

"If we knew this, it would be good if we left some people here to find pregnant women, and the other part went to hunt down Chen Zhongda, so as not to create such a quilt situation. The pregnant woman was neither killed nor caught, so how can she explain this?"

"Don't say such useless words! I'm sure the pregnant woman has given birth to a baby, and it's a boy, and I can tell by hearing the baby's cry. This is where we met Chen Zhongda, and I remember correctly. But...... If you think about it, this Chen Zhongda wants to lure us away, and he will definitely not appear next to the pregnant woman, I think we can look for it a little farther away from here, and maybe we can find the mother and the baby boy. ”

"That's right. ”

So the group left the Guigu Cave together and looked for it in the southeast direction.

Only then did Chen Zhongda know that this group of people had not met the master.

After the group left, he hurriedly descended to Guigu Mountain to find the missing baby.
