Yu Qin didn't sleep well tonight, and woke up near dawn for no reason.

She looked at the moonlight outside the window, the moonlight was hazy, she was already a little intoxicated, and there seemed to be a touch of red on the horizon, and the morning glow was about to erupt.

The first thing that came to her mind was that Xu Huaigu was leaving today, and she couldn't help but feel a trace of sadness in her heart.

She walked out of the house, the morning breeze blowing on her cheeks, which was particularly pleasant in the past, but today it looked a little annoying.

She seemed to be a little dazed, so she was about to go to the river to wash her face, but her footsteps unconsciously walked to a high place and walked to the door of Xu Huaigu's house.

As if frightened, she reached out to knock on the door, but stayed in mid-air.

I don't know if he will wake up, if he doesn't, then wouldn't his knock wake him up?

She hesitated for a while, and then thought a little angrily: wake up, wake up, what's the big deal, anyway, he wants to leave, why don't you care about him so much.

So she raised one eyebrow slightly, then stretched out her bare hand and began to knock on the door, and the force was deliberately increased.

However, she knocked on the door for a long time, but there was still no movement in the room, and Yu Qin began to panic a little. She quickened her movements, and the knock on the door became more and more urgent, heavier, but also very pale and weak.

For a long time, there was still no movement inside, and she vaguely guessed a little bit that Xu Huaigu had left, so she was drained of her strength all of a sudden, and leaned in front of the door in frustration, not even having the courage to open the door.

Just when she was helpless, the sound of hurried footsteps sounded in her ears. The sound of footsteps hitting the rocks by the river, mixed with the crisp sound of splashing water, is familiar.

She immediately recognized that it was not the straw sandals of the people of the village, but the sound of the boots.

She quickly stood up and looked in the direction of the footsteps, but saw a figure running up eagerly from the river.

Yu Qin watched the figure hurriedly approach, and it didn't seem to feel real.

Xu Huaigu also glanced up at it, but saw a slender figure standing on the mountain rock. He was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly shouted: "Yu Qin, tell Yu An quickly, someone from the government has come to arrest you, go quickly!" ”

Yu Qin was still looking at Xu Huaigu a little sluggishly, and she didn't know why Xu Huaigu appeared, but this misty sentence made her hesitate even more, she just looked at Xu Huaigu suspiciously for a while, not knowing what to do.

Xu Huaigu was stunned when she saw Yu Qin, and knew that she must have been confused by this sentence, but time was really urgent, and Xu Huaigu didn't have time to explain it clearly to Yu Qin.

He hurriedly rushed up, grabbed Yu Qin's hand, and was about to pull her away directly. Yu An, who was in a room next to him, had not fallen asleep, but when he heard the movement outside, he hurriedly ran out.

Xu Huaigu said to him anxiously: "Hurry up, someone is coming to arrest you!" ”

Yu An glanced at the anxious look on Xu Huaigu's face, it didn't look like a fake, and he was not an indecisive person, so he immediately stopped hesitating and said to Xu Huaigu: "You leave with Qin'er first, and I'll come right away!" ”

With that, he rushed back into the house as quickly as he could.

Xu Huaigu watched him go back suspiciously, not knowing what else he couldn't give up at this critical juncture, but seeing that Yu An insisted on doing so, he had no choice but to pull Yu Qin, who was a little dazed, and quickly ran to the river.

……

On the top of the cliff, the governor Qi Wen looked at the sky and gave an order in a deep voice, saying, "Send troops!" ”

The military general Guan Xu took out a long black arrow from behind his back, pulled it away with a brown-red longbow hanging on his horse, and the arrow flew rapidly into the sky, making a sharp hiss that pierced the air.

Giving orders with such an authoritarian bow and arrow can be heard by anyone who is a hundred feet away, and this is the most convenient way to give orders in the army.

Xu Huaigu also heard the wailing of bows and arrows at the bottom of the river valley, and his vigilance was greatly raised. Sure enough, the sound of the bow and arrow fell for a moment, and the sound of Sisuo sounded, and then a fire dragon appeared in the mountains, illuminating the entire river valley clearly!

Xu Huaigu condensed his mind and looked in the direction of the fire dragon, only to find that this fire dragon turned out to be a grand occasion where the torches and rays in the hands of a long line of people gathered together.

Looking at the scale of the fire dragon, there are at least two hundred people!

The group moved extremely quickly, and when they reached the edge of the village, they gathered into a circle, ready to surround the village. But because Xu Huaigu discovered it in advance, he had already fled to the river with Yu Qin at this time, and hid in the river, so he was not surrounded by that group of officers and soldiers. And Yu An, who went into the house to find the hosta before, was only a little slower than him, and at this time he also escaped and fled into the river.

Yu An and Xu Huaigu gathered together, and glanced at the village that had lived behind them for more than ten years, and at this time it was already surrounded by two hundred people. He couldn't help but scold angrily: "Damn, how can so many people come!" ”

Yu Qin was also shocked at a loss at this time, looking desperately in the direction of the village, her eyes were sad.

The group of well-trained officers and soldiers began to disperse a group of people as soon as the village was fenced off, and they kicked open the doors from house to house. At this point in time, almost all the people in the village were sleeping, and suddenly they were surrounded, and they were caught with little room for resistance.

There were also some people who moved quickly and fled before the officers and soldiers entered the house, but as soon as they saw the torches of no less than 100 people outside, they no longer had the intention of escaping, and could only sit on the ground with a pale and decadent expression, waiting for the officers and soldiers to take them away.

Suddenly, in this inconspicuous valley, the beating and scolding of men, the shrill cries of women and the cries of children filled the entire valley.

Seeing the people who usually get along with him day and night being caught one by one, Yu Qin's eyes were blank, and then she whimpered in a low voice. And Yu An, who is not shocked on weekdays, has also lost his calm as a hunter, just looking at the village anxiously and unable to do anything.

Xu Huaigu watched these two people lose their minds in the face of the sudden disaster, and he was also very anxious, he reminded: "What are you still doing in a daze, others have been arrested, we have to quickly figure out how to escape from here!" ”

Yu An came back to his senses, thought for a moment and said, "We went downstream along the river, and they couldn't find anyone in the river!" ”

Xu Huaigu shook his head helplessly and said, "I just came back from the downstream, and they deployed troops downstream, and we can't get through." ”

Yu An also panicked at this time, you must know that they are located in the river valley sandwiched by the cliffs on both sides at this time, and the rock walls on both sides are steep, and it is impossible to climb up. And the waterways upstream and downstream are blocked, where else can we go?

Is it true that you are going to be trapped in this river?
