Chapter 9: Escape
Xie Xing held the half spear in his hand tightly, lurking behind the mound, he only needed to wait for five minutes, and no one came over for five minutes, which meant that they really had shit luck, and no one found them.
However, it was only less than three minutes later, Xie Xing heard a slight sound of footsteps, and what made Xie Xing breathe a sigh of relief was that there were indeed not many people, but two people, and it was estimated that because there were only two of them, they did not dare to do anything to Xie Xing and the three of them immediately.
But Xie Xing was still a little nervous, after all, the current small body was too bad, and he didn't know if he could succeed in attacking a person.
But Xie Xing guessed correctly, this big night really didn't notice that these two people were the two who left, Xie Xing hid behind the small mound at the fork in the road and was not found.
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, although it was very soft, but Xie Xing could hear it clearly. It was a night without the slightest moonlight, and it was almost dawn and it was especially dark.
Xie Xing had already seen two very vague black shadows carefully touching them, one in front of the other. However, looking at the figure of this blurred shadow, it is obvious that he is much burly compared to Xie Xing.
When the first person walked over, Xie Xing suddenly burst out, picked up his hand and stabbed the waist of the figure behind him with half a gun. This time used up all of Xie Xing's strength.
The scream of "Ah" was particularly harsh in the silent night sky, and Wang Hu and Ding Qiu pounced back without hesitation when they heard the voice.
Xie Xing sighed secretly, if he was in his heyday, where would he do this, just cover this person's mouth, but now he can only make this decision.
However, Xie Xing still felt the feeling of the tip of the gun entering the flesh clearly, and without hesitation, he twisted the head of the gun, pulled it out directly, and then immediately rolled to the side, and at the same time a simple knife slashed at Xie Xing's position just now.
It can be seen that the reaction speed of the companion of the person who was killed by Xie Xing is still very fast, and Xie Xing is frightened into a cold sweat. But he just slashed it, and Wang Hu came closer, he didn't need to tell who Xie Xing was, just look at the size of the shadow.
Wang Hu pounced on the soldier who cut Xie Xing, although Ding Qiu did not have much strength, but also came to help, at this time Xie Xing had already climbed up, seeing Wang Hu and the soldiers on the ground turned into a ball, Xie Xing was afraid that he would react and immediately scream again, so he directly picked up the tip of the gun and stabbed it into the throat of the soldier who was pressed by Wang Hu again, the blood was wild, and it was extremely accurate.
At this time, the soldier who was shot in the waist by Xie Xing was still struggling, and Xie Xing went over and stabbed him in the throat again.
"Brother Xing, why are you so accurate?" Ding Qiu was so tired just by helping Wang Hu hold down a soldier, and he was very surprised to see Xie Xing stabbing people's throats so accurately at night, and Wang Hu was also very surprised.
Xie Xing was so tired that he took a breath and said to Wang Hu: "Brother Wang Hu, you quickly put the bodies of these two people in the direction of the Tongliu River Road, and we will leave immediately, I guess someone must have heard the sound just now, but it will take a while to find this place at night." ”
Wang Hu knew that now was not the time to speak, so according to Xie Xing's instructions, he dragged the bodies of the two people to the side that went to the fork in the road of the Tongliu River.
The three of them immediately ran along a fork in the road away from the flowing river.
When the sky turned white, the three of them had already left the Tongliu River for twenty or thirty miles. All three were exhausted and out of breath.
"What should I do?" Wang Hu looked at Xie Xing, wanting to wait for him to come up with an idea.
Xie Xing took out a simple package and said, "Now let's immediately take off our military uniforms and change into a set of clothes, and then hurry up." It's a marginal area, but it's still dangerous. ”
After the three of them changed their clothes, coupled with Xie Xing's experience and awareness, they walked and ran for a whole day again, and then slowly deviated from the battlefield. When it was dark again, the three of them sat down tired and panting, ate something and continued on their way.
Although the eyes of the three of them were red, they didn't dare to sleep now, after all, this place was not very far from the battlefield.
It was another night of walking and running all the way, and the three of them were completely out of the range of death.
"Brother Xing, why don't we sleep for a while, I really can't help it. Ding Qiu sat on the side of the road and gasped for breath while leaning on a tree branch.
Xie Xing is also tired now, although he knows that this escape has been successful so far, but he still cautiously asked Wang Hu, "Brother Wang Hu, how far are we from Xiaheba you said now?"
"It's still half a day away, as long as we get to Xiaheba, there is a pier there. Passing merchant ships, whoever they are, bring them with you, as long as you have enough silver. We now have nine silver coins, if you think that the nearest Xiangcheng only needs one silver coin, if you want to go to Xizhou City in our Zheyun Kingdom, we need two silver coins. "Wang Hu knows about this place, obviously he has been here once.
"Alright, little ball, you hold on for another half a day, and when we're on the boat, we'll go to sleep. Otherwise, there will be a big battle, and it will be difficult to guarantee that there will be no defeated soldiers here. When Xie Xing said this, he was actually tired, and his whole body seemed to be disconnected, which showed that this body was really poor, if it weren't for his strong will, he really didn't know if he could support it now.
Xiaoqiu nodded, in order to save his life, no matter how hard he was, he had to endure it, and there was still half a day, the three of them simply ate some dry food, and then gritted their teeth and went on the road again.
But fortunately, the luck of the three of them was good, when Xie Xing and the three of them came to Xiaheba Wharf, there happened to be a merchant ship parked, maybe it was the time when the two countries were at war, there were not many people on this merchant ship, Xie Xing and the three of them quickly got on the boat, and there was even a large area for sleeping.
What made Xie Xing breathe a sigh of relief was that although the three of them looked embarrassed, as long as they handed over the silver dollars, no one on this ship asked them where they came from or where they were going.
After paying the money and saying a word to go to Xizhou City, the first thing the three of them did when they got on the boat was, of course, to fall asleep.
At this time, there were people on the boat staring at Xie Xing and the three of them, and when they saw the three of them coming on the boat, they immediately fell asleep, and soon two big men came again.
"Brother Hui, these three people slept like pigs as soon as they came, and they didn't know if they were thrown away at this time. The obscene man who had been staring at Xie Xing and the three of them immediately whispered when he saw the big man coming over.
One of the big men walked to the baggage next to the three of them and pinched it, took out a letter and looked at it, his face changed suddenly, and he immediately said: "These three people escaped from the battlefield of Zheyun Country and Liujin Kingdom, they should be going to deliver letters, there is no oil and water on them, let's not care." ”
