Chapter 10: Hunting in the Mountains

The two of them in the secret passage and the archer moved forward quickly, and the other end of the secret passage and the people of the Qiao family were also moving forward quickly.

Now most of the people in the Qiao family in the secret passage are members of the Qiao family's family, and the leader is Qiao Fugong, who wants to kill in his heart.

At this time, Qiao Fugong had lost his former calm and elegant, and he was supported by his two sons and trotted all the way.

Now Qiao Fugong can't wait for himself to have two more legs.

Following Qiao Fugong and his son were the juniors of the Qiao family, some of them were still crying, how could they have suffered like this in ordinary times.

But in the face of the threat of death, they can only run wild in the secret passage driven by adults.

And at the back of everyone are the daughters of the Qiao family, and these ladies are arranged at the back.

First of all, this arrangement is due to their slow movements, and arranging them in front will affect the speed of the entire team's escape.

The second point is that Qiao Fugong's intentions are sinister, if the grass army in the rear really chases, these female dependents will bear the brunt.

In the face of so many female dependents, those grass troops are naturally reluctant to start, and they will definitely be able to delay the speed of the grass army when the time comes.

In this way, it will be able to buy more time for the Qiao family in front.

It has to be said that most of the women born in this era are unfortunate.

Because in this era of male supremacy, they are just a bargaining chip to measure male power.

Since it is a bargaining chip, there is something that can be discarded at any time.

Soon, there was a slight light in front of the originally dark secret passage, which made Qiao Fugong, who was already out of breath at a trot, excited.

As long as they escape from this secret passage and reach the back mountain, then their Qiao family is basically completely safe.

Everyone didn't know that the Qiao family had built this secret passage underground long ago because it had been looted by bandits before.

In addition to this, they also built a secret cave in the mountain, and at the same time, they also opened a road near the cave that allowed them to quickly pass through the back mountain.

And this cave and the secret path are known only to Qiao Fugong and his two sons.

As long as they can escape into the cave and avoid the pursuit of the grass army, they will follow this secret road to bypass the back mountain, and then their Qiao family will naturally be able to leap into the sea and the sky will be high for the birds to fly.

Qiao Fugong had already thought that he would notify his younger brother by letter as soon as he escaped safely.

When the time comes, let the emperor send troops to completely wipe out these mud legs.

At the other end of the passage, Yi Chongdao was running all the way in front, and the thin archers behind him were not slow at all.

"I never thought your body was so good."

Yi Zhongdao has a good impression of this archer.

"Yue Mian actually has such an outstanding subordinate as you, but he is just a small centurion, but he has wronged you."

"Yi Ye praised it falsely, I am a hunter in the mountains, and some superficial archery and hunting skills are nothing."

The archer said modestly.

"Knowing that Yue Mian was going to send someone to attack Duliang County, I came uninvited, and with Yue Mian's temper, he would definitely go to the second master to sue me in front of the second master."

Yi Zhongdao said this sentence seemingly casually.

But this archer is also a clever person, and he instantly understood that Yi Chongdao was deliberately reminding him to guard against Yue Mian to put on small shoes for him afterwards.

Linked to Yi Chongdao's previous sentence that he was wronged as a centurion, he instantly understood that Yi Chongdao was trying to win him over.

To say that this Yi Chongdao and Yue Mian are both big names in the grass army.

Yi Chongdao is one of the earliest veterans of the Grass Army, and he is also the first general under Liu Yuyan, the head of the Five Tiger Generals of the Grass Army.

And Yue Mian is also the veteran of the Grass Army, and he is also one of the five tiger generals of the Grass Army.

But within the grass army, Liu Yuyan's status is much higher than Yue Mian.

In the grass army, in addition to the big boss Ling Feibai and the second boss Qi Shouke, Liu Yuyan's reputation is the highest.

It can be said that Liu Yuyan is a well-deserved third leader of the grass army.

And Yue Mian's ranking in the top ranks of the grass army is basically the bottom.

The reason is because of Yue Mian's character.

This Yue Mian is not a member of the Dayu Dynasty, he was originally a Donghu person on the northern grasslands, but he was captured by the Dayu army and became a slave in Dayu since he was a child.

Therefore, he has hatred for the Dayu people from the bottom of his heart.

Therefore, he treats his subordinates either beating or scolding, and he is usually extremely harsh.

From the fact that each of his subordinates is like a beggar, with yellow faces and thin skin, and no clothes can also show his character.

As the saying goes, if you are not of my race, your heart will be different, and in the eyes of the grass army, this Yue Mian is a typical example.

However, he himself has infinite strength, and every time he fights, he can conquer the village and make a lot of achievements.

Even the Dayu Imperial Court knew that there was such a person as him in the grass army.

is really the shadow of the so-called famous tree, and it is precisely because of his reputation that he can sit on the position of the five tiger generals of the grass army.

In fact, Yi Chongdao knew that another important reason why this Yue Mian was able to sit on the position of the Five Tiger Generals was because he was the confidant of the second leader Qi Shouke.

He has a bad relationship with the second leader, Qi Shouke, and it is said that Qi Shouke saved his life several times back then.

Therefore, he can be regarded as obedient to Qi Shouke.

"Yi Ye rest assured, Yue Dangjia only subscribed to the seized materials and beauties, this time Duliang City must be a bumper harvest, Yi Ye, you didn't take a penny, Yue Dangjia can't find a reason to embarrass you."

The sharpshooter replied deftly.

From his words, he had already heard that he was a little dissatisfied with Yue Mian.

"Don't know your name?"

Yi Zhongdao suddenly asked solemnly.

This surprised the sharpshooter, he really didn't expect that a person with a high position in the grass army like Yi Chongdao would use honorifics against him.

You know, generally using honorifics means that the other person attaches great importance to you.

"Yi Ye has tormented the villain, the villain's name is Mi Yiren, a person from Runzhou."

Although he could not salute during the run, Miyiren's tone was extremely respectful.

"I understand your archery skills, and then I hope you can help me kill Qiao Fugong, the old thief."

"Yi Ye rest assured, I will definitely serve Yi Ye as a dog and horse, and I will let Yi Ye get his wish."

Mi Yiren's words can be regarded as showing his intentions, and from the moment he said a word, he can be regarded as officially taking refuge in Yi Chongdao.

On this side of the passage, everyone in the Qiao family had already escaped from the passage at this time.

When the cold moonlight sprinkled on his body, everyone in the Qiao family cried excitedly.

From daytime, the shadow of death hung over the heads of the people all the time.

Now that they have escaped from Duliang City, they can be regarded as a preliminary escape from the clutches of death.

"What are you crying about? A bunch of useless waste. ”

Qiao Fugong shook his hand and slapped a grandson behind him.

"My Qiao family's boy bleeds without tears, it's really insulting to my Qiao family's lintel."

Facing Qiao Fugong's angry reprimand, everyone in the Qiao family stopped crying.

Although Qiao Fugong himself said that it was righteous Ling Ran, his calves were trembling at this time.

It's just that everyone in the Qiao family didn't find out, and they all thought that the old man was caused by running too much.

"Although we are out of Duliang County, this does not mean that we are really safe, I believe that you will lead the way in front and we will continue to set off."

Although everyone was a little tired, Qiao Fugong didn't dare to stop and rest, he was worried that the grass army would be killed at any time.

"Grandpa, where are we going?"

The grandson, who was slapped by Qiao Fugong, asked cautiously.

"Don't say more, just follow your father."

Qiao Fugong didn't want to bother to explain at this time.

"Dad, are we going to find something to block this passage, so that even if the grass army finds the passage, it won't be able to pass, wouldn't it be safer for us?"

Qiao Fugong's second son, Qiao Mingyi, reminded in a whisper.

"Second brother, we are not sure if the grass army has entered the passage now, the longer we stay here, the more dangerous we become. If the grass army rushes out while I block the passage, we won't sit back and wait for the butcher's knife to come to our necks. ”

Qiao Fugong's eldest son, Qiao Mingxin, reminded.

Qiao Fugong nodded in agreement with his eldest son's suggestion.

"Don't worry about this passage, we'll set off now, and things will change later."

At Qiao Fugong's insistence, everyone in the Qiao family began their trek again.

Only this time they weren't walking in the crowded, dark, airy passageway that made them feel suffocating.

Facing the moonlight and breathing the cool air along the city wall, everyone felt that they had strength again.

Soon everyone came to the back mountain of Duliang City.

At the same time that Qiao Fugong and his party arrived at the back mountain, Yi Chongdao and Mi Yiren also rushed out of the passage smoothly.

At the moment of rushing out of the passage, Yi Chongdao held the giant axe in front of him, and Mi Yiren stretched his bow and arrows and leaned closely behind Yi Chongdao.

The two cooperate tacitly, even if someone ambushes them at the entrance of the passage, Yi Chongdao can block the attack at the first time with the giant axe, and the Miyi people behind him will shoot the sneak attacker as soon as possible.

But when they rushed out of the passage, they found that there was no ambush.

The bright moonlight made their eyes a little uncomfortable for a while after being in the dark for a long time.

Yi Chongdao and Mi Yiren spit out the torch in their mouths as soon as possible.

Soon the two of them got used to the splendor of the moon.

Looking at the empty outside of the city, both of them couldn't help but take a deep breath and drain the turbidity in their chests.

They looked around and didn't find the figure of the Qiao family, and their clothes were a little anxious.

"Master Yi, the people who came to Qiao's house with me will definitely not be able to run."

Mi Yiren squatted on the ground and pinched the dirt to look at it, then led the clothes and rushed towards the direction of the Qiao family's escape.

Yi Chongdao couldn't help but be overjoyed, he forgot that Miyi people used to be hunters in the mountains.

To say that tracing and tracking is a hunter's housekeeping skill.

After all, Yi Chongdao is a soldier who has been fighting on the border for many years, and Mi Yiren is also a veteran of hunting in the mountains, and the speed of the two of them is far from being comparable to those old and weak women and children of the Qiao family.

When the Qiao family had just entered the back mountain, Yi Chongdao and Mi Yiren rushed to the bottom of the back mountain.

"Master Yi, they have entered the mountain, and they can't run away now."

The corners of Mi Yiren's mouth showed a smile of ambition.

If the people of the Qiao family were hiding elsewhere, he might still be worried that the other party would run away, but in this mountain forest, it can be said that it is completely his home field.

No matter how cunning the people of the Qiao family were, he was sure to find them out.

"Without further ado, I'll go and send Old Horse Qiao and his daughter to unite now."

Yi Chongdao couldn't help but smile when he saw Mi Yiren Chengzhu on the corner of his chest.

In his opinion, he can behead Qiao Fugong under the axe tonight.

In order to rob his daughter-in-law, the Yuan family killed his mother and son, and now he wants to send Qiao Fugong to reunite with the poisonous woman with a tooth for a tooth.

Yi Chongdao and Mi Yiren followed the traces left by the Qiao family, and kept shuttling in the mountains and forests.

They saw branches swaying in the distance in the woods.

Seeing the prey looking at the clothes, I couldn't help but be excited.

Just as he was about to rush forward, the Miyi people on the side went to stop him.

"Master Yi, please don't be impatient, I feel that something is wrong."

As a hunter, his instincts are much sharper than those of Yi Shimichi in this mountain forest.

Although Yi Chongdao is impatient now, he still listens to other people's suggestions.

I saw Mi Yiren signaling to be silent, and then he jumped up to the big tree on the side in three or two clicks.

With his extraordinary eyesight, Miyi saw a man standing under the shaking branches in the distance.

The figure swayed, and it seemed that the branches were shaking because of him.

There must be a demon when something goes wrong, and Mi Yiren found out that something was wrong at the first time.

"Master Yi, there should be a problem ahead, let's go around it from the side now."

After Mi Yiren came down, he pointed to the front and whispered a suggestion.

At this time, Yi Shigedao also sensed that something was wrong, because there was only a small branch shaking in front of him.

It stands to reason that the Qiao family has a large number of people, and it is impossible to cause only this little movement.

I have to say that the most correct thing Yi Chongdao did tonight was to bring Mi Yiren with him.

Otherwise, he would probably capsize in the gutter tonight.

Before they reached this area, the Qiao family had already entered the cave they had prepared in advance.

After being safe, Qiao Fugong did not relax but sent someone to observe the movement under the mountain as soon as possible.

Sure enough, when the people of the Qiao family stood on the mountainside and observed, they found that there was a small part of the place where the branches of the trees under the mountain were shaking.

This means that there are definitely not many people chasing after the grass army.

And Qiao Fugong is indeed a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, he did not have the idea of sitting still at this time, he immediately thought of counterattacking.

So he arranged for his children and grandchildren to install a dozen traps in the cave not far from the cave.

And then let people keep shaking the branches on the way they have to pass.

In this way, the grass army that tracks them will think that they have found them when they find the branches shaking, and if they chase after them, the sharp traps will surely surprise them.

As long as these chasing grass soldiers are killed as soon as possible, their chances of escaping safely will increase a lot.

For Qiao Fugong's resolute and ruthless methods, his children and grandchildren couldn't help but admire.

It's just that Qiao Fugong and the others would never have thought that although the number of grass soldiers who came after them was not large, there were only two people, but the Mi Yi people among them were old hunters.

For his superficial trap, the other party found the clue at the first time.

But it is precisely because Qiao Fugong did not consider this factor that it will directly lead to his final fate.

At the same time, it also pulled the fate of Yi Chongdao, Mi Yiren and Li Yi, who was still sleeping on the top of the mountain, together.

It can only be said that the world is impermanent, and there is a certain number in the dark.
