Chapter 3: Escape?
Cheng Shuiyao was choked, but she still stubbornly said: "I know you don't believe it, but everything must be prevented." Even if there is no avalanche, but the snow is so heavy that the snow will cover the mountain tomorrow, and you will not be able to go out. There is a time limit for escorting prisoners, and if the time is missed because of this, we are fine, but I am afraid that all the officials will have to be hanged. β
"It's better to go out first while it's still light."
After Yang Qi listened, he pondered for a while, stood up and raised his voice: "Get up!" Get upβit's time to go! Hurry up! β
Dozens of prisoners immediately became commotion, and someone shouted: "Master Jun, it's still snowing outside." It's freezing this day, what kind of road are you going! β
Yang Qi didn't speak, although the little soldier before didn't want to hurry, he strode over, raised his whip and threatened: "Let you hurry and hurry - a group of prisoners who have been exiled from their homes, do you have the right to speak, do you want me to kick you out with a whip!" β
More than a dozen soldiers with knives drove them all out of the cave, and Cheng Shuiyao followed behind, inadvertently bumping into Xiao Ji's gaze.
Xiao Ji saw all her actions just now, and even heard what she said clearly, but she didn't ask anything, just glanced at her and withdrew her gaze.
The snow was falling heavily, and it was getting heavier and heavier, and everyone was rushing to the road with one foot deep and one foot shallow, no matter how the soldiers drove them, they all walked very slowly, and they were driven in a hurry, and some people couldn't help complaining: "Master Jun, this is a mountain road, and it is snowing, it is not easy to walk, and it is almost dark this day!" Besides, can't you wait until the snow stops before you go? β
A soldier rode over and whipped him twice with a whip, causing a few wails, Yang Qi knew that he couldn't have a good face for them, so he lowered his face: "Chirp crooked!" Are you willing to catch up with the snow? Rub it off a little longer, and see how I clean you up! β
Everyone immediately shut up and silently quickened their pace.
Cheng Shuiyao's face was a little bad.
The original owner was seriously ill before, and his body was already very weak, even though he drank the spirit of the spiritual spring, but the weather was cold, and the snow road was difficult to walk, and after a while, his face was pale, and his legs trembled.
Xie Yin couldn't help but ask, "Shui Yao, how are you?" β
Cheng Shuiyao shook her head, endured walking for a while, her brain became more and more dizzy, she couldn't catch any of them, and almost fell to the ground.
A pair of hands caught her.
The man's deep voice rang in his ears: "Are you alright?" β
Cheng Shuiyao's eyes were black, and she couldn't say a word about her chapped lips.
Xiao Ji frowned, grabbed his arm with one hand, supported her waist with the other, carried the person on her back, and walked forward silently.
Cheng Shuiyao only felt that it was upside down, she put her fingers in her mouth, and took some spiritual spring water from between her fingers, only then did she think clearly and lift her spirits.
When I opened my eyes, I found that I was being carried on my back by Xiao Ji, and I was about to get down when I struggled, but I was restrained by the man's words: "Don't move." β
She didn't dare to move.
The two were silent for a moment.
Xiao Ji was thin, looking weak, but walking very steadily with her on his back, his face was calm and resolute, and he said lightly: "You yourself are like this, why do you still agitate to hurry?" β
Can why?
To survive!
You have the aura of a villain, and the plot of the whole book needs your participation, and you are destined to be overthrown by the male protagonist and become a stepping stone for the protagonist to ascend to the sky, rather than dying under this pouring snow and being buried in the vast plain white.
But these people, and myself, are going to die!
Don't ask, asking is that tool people have no human rights!
She didn't answer, and Xiao Ji didn't ask again.
Before dark, the group finally walked out of the valley, and walked two miles, and some prisoners were very tired, and asked if they could rest for a while, and they were scolded and taught a lesson.
When the argument continued, I saw the horses under the crotches of the soldiers getting restless, and they couldn't stop breaking their hooves, and everyone was shocked, and they heard a sudden rumbling sound behind them.
Everyone hurriedly looked back, only to see the vast sea of snow slanting down like a tide, swept by the cold winter wind, its momentum was strong, like thousands of troops, galloping endlessly!
"Avalanche!" Someone shouted.
"Quick! Come on! β
Yang Qi shouted and urged everyone to run quickly!
Cheng Shuiyao was shocked, isn't there an avalanche tomorrow?
But she didn't have time to think about it, she was already running forward on Xiao Ji's back, and under the confusion of her thoughts, she had a vague understanding of the so-called "fate" for the first time.
The avalanche came quickly and quickly, destroying and sweeping everything.
Thanks to Cheng Shuiyao's early warning, everyone ran quickly and fast in order to survive at this moment, Xiao Ji carried her on her back, and even sandwiched a pair of younger siblings under her arms, and ran to a safe place before the mountains and tsunami were pressing.
Reflecting the snow light, dozens of people were sitting or paralyzed, all palpitating.
"Jun, Junye, I misunderstood you." One of the prisoners said in a hoarse voice.
Although everyone is a prisoner, after all, they are all exiled, and they have saved their lives, and no one wants to die if they can live.
In the cold, Yang Qi wiped the sweat on his head, looked at Cheng Shuiyao, and said in his heart that he was lucky that he listened to this woman's words, otherwise he would be under the blizzard now.
He doesn't care about the lives of prisoners, but he still cares about the lives of himself and his brothers.
He wrote down this feeling.
Cheng Shuiyao was busy stroking Xie Yin's back, Xie Yin was used to being pampered, and when she ran down this time, she couldn't even breathe.
She picked up a handful of snow and fed it to others, and heard Yang Qi's voice in her ears: "Everyone will repair on the spot and hurry tomorrow." β
Cheng Shuiyao raised his head and found that from just now, the heavy snow that was supposed to fall overnight had gradually stopped.
This is...... Escaped?
She was at a loss.
Some soldiers went to pick up damp firewood and came back, and it was difficult to light it, dozens of people were crowded together one by one, if it weren't for the heavy jackets on their bodies, they were afraid that they would freeze to death here tonight.
Early in the morning of the second day, Yang Qi urged everyone to hurry, but this time there was no objection, and soon arrived at a post station.
Everyone was hungry, Yang Qi took down the dry food from the horse, and a prisoner handed out a cake.
Then he took out another piece of mutton and told a soldier: "Go and cook." Boil some broth to replenish your brothers' bodies. β
The soldier grinned, "Boss, do you look at me like this, like a cook?" β
Yang Qi raised his eyebrows, "It's not for you to make it delicious!" Just fill your stomach! β
"If you're not afraid that I'll destroy this meat, then I'll do it."
As he spoke, he reached out to take it, but was kicked away by Yang Qi: "Five big and three thick, what else can you do!" β
The soldier giggled and didn't take it to heart.
Cheng Shuiyao, who was not far away, saw it all in her eyes, she looked at the weak Xie Yin beside her, the yellow-faced and thin-skinned twins, and the pale Xiao Ji.
