Chapter 569: Desperate Pursuit

Soon, Qiao Lin and the others, who were hiding in the city, were pursued and suppressed like never before, and after paying the price of several subordinates, they fled in a hurry.

The incident happened in the second half of the night, but since they hadn't really caught the other party, the people below didn't dare to disturb too much, and waited until the next day's dawn before the housekeeper in the house reported it.

"Got it, keep up the good work."

When Li Yu heard the news, he had no joy or sorrow, but just said.

At this moment, Li Xin had not yet gone to the mansion, and also instructed: "This time the matter is not trivial, we must catch the thief and give His Majesty an explanation.

These thieves are so bold that they dare to break into the palace and steal things, they are simply impatient!"

……

"Whew...... Call...... It's really evil, how can these court eagle dogs work so hard?

Could it be that just to curry favor with Li Xin's father and son, he was willing to let the whole city be under martial law, and even the City Patrol Division, the Soldiers and Horses Division, and the East and West Second Factories all followed suit?"

At this moment, south of the Holy Capital, in a deserted suburb more than thirty miles away, the alien Chen Dingguan gasped, struggled to put away the strange treasure in his hand, and walked out from between the corpses of the pursuers lying all over the place.

There were no powerful characters among these people who were chasing him, but he didn't have the slightest smugness on his face, but showed an unprecedented solemn expression.

Because with his many years of experience in mixing and recklessly evading the pursuit of the imperial court, he has never encountered such a strong pursuit.

The people in the court are also raised by their fathers and mothers, no matter how strong the peak is, it is always inevitable to steal women and play tricks, and people are floating.

It's not hard to escape.

But this time, not to mention working hard, at least it can be regarded as conscientious.

This is clearly the situation of fighting for the official body and seeking a way out, and all the people from top to bottom supervise each other, and the rewards and punishments are strict.

Didn't dare to be lazy and let them go.

Chen Dingguan had to kill these fanatical pursuers, but he also spent a lot of physical strength and energy because of this, and he became exhausted.

Qiao Lin walked out of the grove on the other side, his clothes also stained with blood and his face uncertain.

He was careless just now, and was shot by a pursuer with a heavy crossbow.

Before he changed to master the strange treasure, just like this, I am afraid that he would have died.

Even now, when he is in control of the strange treasure, his body is injured, which still makes him feel great inconvenience.

Finally stopping the bleeding, bandaging it, and regaining the ability to move, he felt more and more that he couldn't go on like this.

"I was only staring at the Hou Mansion before, and I didn't notice the situation in the outside world for a while, so it seems that I just happened to run into a disaster......

Just now, those pursuers revealed that something was going on in the palace."

"The Palace?" Chen Dingguan was stunned.

"After all, it's my Holy Sect Tree that is making a big move, and I don't know what kind of black cauldron it has been detained."

Although Qiao Lin does not have the skills of an unpredictable prophet, he understands human nature, and he can tell the key in one word.

Chen Dingguan was shocked, and his face was full of bitterness.

At this point, they had nothing to say, but to rest for a while and then embark on the escape road again.

This time, the Demon Sect subordinates who were brought out of the city before were all lost.

They didn't even have time to collect the bodies of these congregants.

Shortly after they left, a crowd of people rushed in.

"My lord, traces of battle have been found here!"

Soon, Fanzi in brocade clothes quickly entered the investigation process.

"The corpses are still warm, and they have escaped the big fish in the Demon Sect, that Qiao Lin and Chen Dingguan!"

"Chase!"

"Woohoo!"

At the sound of an order, the yellow dog barked wildly and quickly walked along the road ahead.

Fast horses crossed them and quickly set up defenses along the official straight.

During this time, there was also a goshawk skimming the sky, quickly passing the news to the next station.

It was a node that the imperial court had built at great expense, and there were sending and receiving along the way

Letters, the mann who took care of the horses was stationed, and in the nearby county town, all the catches, Ding Zhuang was quickly mobilized, and he was ready to fight according to the information coming from the front.

……

"Damn, there's another level ahead, and there's no end to it!"

A few hours later, under a small hill next to the official road, Qiao Lin and Chen Dingguan bowed down and watched from afar.

I saw a stone bridge at the entrance of the village where a small river originally passed, and the officers and soldiers set up cards and asked pedestrians.

The villagers who walked around from the countryside and neighbors, or went to the polder in the nearby market, felt very inexplicable, but they did not dare to resist and honestly accepted the interrogation.

During this period, even the phenomenon of seeing the county officials eating and taking cards and making some melons, fruits and other things carried by the villagers disappeared.

When something goes wrong, there must be a demon, and the two of them saw it from a distance and immediately understood that it was coming for themselves.

"Word has gotten here? It looks like it's hard to force your way through." Qiao Lin said to Chen Dingguan with a little embarrassment on his face.

Chen Dingguan hesitated for a moment and said, "Can you kill these people?"

"Breaking through the checkpoint is the next strategy, and after a moment of effort, you will be locked to know your whereabouts, and you will be mobilized to chase and intercept it." Qiao Lin shook his head.

"So, what about a detour?"

Chen Dingguan asked.

"With the strength of our feet, it is not a problem to trek through mountains and rivers, and there is no need to take the ready-made road."

Qiao Lin shook his head: "You take it for granted, even if we can walk in a nowhere for a while, we will soon be caught up, you and I were just ordinary people before we became aliens, and we are not used to walking in the mountains like mountain people and hunters.

Moreover, the imperial court may have the means to detect the whereabouts of the target, or to know the general whereabouts of the prophet, and know the approximate whereabouts of us.

As long as we occupy the main transportation routes and speed up along the way, we can always mobilize several times the number of troops to encircle and suppress.

For one or two days, two or three days, you may be able to hold on, but in a few days, where will you have the energy to run around without sleep?"

"This doesn't work, that's not good, what should I do?" Chen Dingguan said irritably.

Qiao Lin said: "I can only think of a way to mislead the chasing soldiers, anyway, it is not advisable to fight hard."

As he spoke, he took out an object from the bag he was carrying, a small statue of a lifelike jade figure of an inch in size.

[In view of the general environment,

Looking closely, the jade wither's face turned out to be somewhat similar to Qiao Lin.

He untied the wound he had so hard to bandage, dipped it in some blood, and immediately stood by the roadside, and threw it in while the ox cart was passing by to catch the market.

They dressed as passers-by on the way to rest, but they didn't attract the slightest attention.

After doing this, the two immediately turned around, crossed the mountains, and headed for the other side.

There is a trail that leads to a nearby mountain village.

When Qiao Lin used to travel to and from the Holy Capital, he used to stop there, knowing that there were chess pieces arranged by the Gu Heart Demon Sect in the countryside, and they were the big local households.

Those rural landlords and the like believed in the old mother, and they were often very pious in order to obtain the qualifications to enter the vacuum hometown.

This is the key to the Demon Cult being able to set up strongholds everywhere for hiding and resting.
