When the swordsmen saw that Yu Yun was seriously injured and could not find a flaw from any other direction, the living people all withdrew together.

"Slowly retreat ......," Lin Xi and the others whispered.

"Want to go? Burn them! Yu Yunqi stood up in severe pain, and hurriedly evacuated as soon as a flare was thrown into the air.

After an explosion, dozens of people appeared in the valley again, and with a wave of their hands, something was thrown down.

"Lin Xi, look at the sky!" Everyone looked at the unknown object that fell at a rapid speed, fell to the ground and shattered, it turned out to be wine bottles that burned violently in an instant, these wine bottles touched the ground and directly ignited the dead grass on the ground, quickly igniting the flowers all over the valley.

"Molotov cocktails! Broken, let's go! ”

At this time, everyone realized that the situation was not good, and hurriedly withdrew towards Taniguchi.

"I can't let them continue to throw it, Bai Yu, I will protect you, you will knock out all the people in the valley!"

Zhou Baiyu immediately opened his bow and arrows, and the first arrow killed a person who was about to throw a Molotov cocktail down, and the Molotov cocktail fell to the ground, causing the top of the valley to also be quickly ignited. Zhou Baiyu drew his bow again and set up three arrows, and shot them into the knees of the three people standing side by side on the valley, and the three of them were already standing on the edge of the cliff, losing their balance and falling directly into the valley.

The two fought and retreated, making the flowers around them burn a little slower, and finally stepped on a way to rush out.

Everyone suffered some minor injuries, but luckily they all escaped.

"Ahem...... Ahem......"

Fireworks soared into the sky, and the whole air was filled with the smell of foul odors.

"Everybody's fine, not badly injured. cough cough cough cough ......" As soon as Lin Xi's voice fell, there was a cough.

"Everybody's a little wounded, what about you?"

"I'm fine...... Fortunately, these harmful things have been burned, and we have to leave quickly, and we have to go to the town to find an inn to stay in before dark, everyone is injured, and it may be more serious if we spend the night in the wilderness. ”

The men rode westward for more than ten miles, and did not stop at dusk at a town.

"It looks like a big town, everyone pay attention to both sides of the road and see where there are inns."

After a day of running around, everyone finally found an inn to live in.

"Okay, let's rest, but ...... It's better to be careful when you sleep, I'm not sure if they'll come again. ”

"Well, we will."

In the room, the four girls were busy putting the two big beds together, and Lin Xi was sitting at the table pondering.

Seeing Lin Xi's appearance, Yanshou motioned for them to be quiet, and quietly sat down beside him.

"Lin Xi, your expression is very bad, are you injured?"

"Longevity, I'm fine...... I just thought of the civilians who died of poisoning...... Thousands of lives...... I used to think that so many human lives would only appear on the battlefield, and I really didn't think of it...... It's hard to imagine the despair that the people who live there experienced before they died...... "Sometimes, no matter how much you hear from others, it's better to feel it yourself." Lin Xi often heard the teacher talk about the hardships of the people, but he almost never saw it with his own eyes.

Lin Xi ...... You must cheer up, I believe you, you can find the mastermind behind the incident, kill him, and avenge these innocent people! ”

"Hmm...... I believe that this group of people will pay for everything they have done! ”

In the middle of the night, Lin Xi keenly captured the sound of someone walking on the roof, and he quietly woke up the four girls, and at the same time motioned for them to whisper.

At some point, there were three people lying on the roof, and the three of them walked on the tiles without making a sound. If Lin Xi hadn't been awake at this time and on guard, he would never have heard the traces of the people on the roof.

With a "squeak", the wooden window was opened. A black shadow rushed in first, stabbing Lin Xi who was lying on the bed with his back to him by the moonlight.

With a "poof", in just a moment, Lin Xi jumped up, showed the sword that had already been pinched in his hand, and stabbed back at the man in black.

The man in black couldn't dodge and was stabbed, but he didn't hit the vital point.

Immediately afterwards, the remaining two people jumped out of the window, one holding a knife and slashing directly at the top of Lin Xi's head, and the other holding a sword and stabbing directly in the chest.

Lin Xi's sword blade turned, and he flew the knife with a blow, slashing down violently, cutting the iron sword alive.

Seeing that the assassination had failed, the leader took advantage of the darkness to grab his men and fled.

At this time, the four women all came out from under the bed, it turned out that Lin Xi had just let them hide under the bed, and everyone looked out the window, and at this time the outside had returned to silence, as if no one had ever come.

"Lin Xi, what should we do next?"

"You can't go down the river as planned. Guanyin, shout everyone, Bai Yu, take out the map. ”

Zhou Baiyu took out the map and spread it on the table, and Lin Xi followed his current position and observed Shu Di.

Everyone was woken up and housed.

Tang Yao asked Lin Xi: "Lin Xi, are we going to leave overnight?" ”

"Someone just took advantage of the night to assassinate me, these people won't let us go to Tangmen easily, so we have to take a detour to Tangmen."

"Say it, we'll all follow you."

"Look," Lin Xi pointed to where they were on the map, drawing a path, "We're going to set off overnight, go west, cross the Yellow River and then go south to Sichuan and Shu." ”

"But if you have to cross the Yellow River twice, it will be much slower." Yuan Kui said, looking at the map.

"If we take the nearest road to Tangmen as originally planned, the road will inevitably be obstructed, and time will be wasted on them, so that although it will take a long time to cross the river, there will be much fewer obstacles, because the people who block us also need to cross the river, so it can be regarded as buying us time in disguise. Everyone is still aggrieved, let's sleep in the carriage. ”

On the roof not far away, the three black-clothed men who had just failed to assassinate were secretly staring at the group of people leaving west in the distance, led by Yu Yunqi from before.

"Tell Mr. Shen that Lin Xi has changed his plan and is going to cross the Yellow River west to make a detour to Tangmen, and it's up to them next."

"Yes."

In the classics of the Central Plains civilization, the Yellow River has always been called the "mother river", the most important birthplace of ancient Chinese civilization. The industrious and brave ancestors overcame all obstacles and worked this vast land to create a splendid and dazzling ancient culture.

There will be a ferry in every place where the water flow is moderate, and there will be many ferrymen in the ferry who can take people across the Yellow River, these people are skilled in water skills, very familiar with the flow of the Yellow River, can drive safely in the turbulent Yellow River without being too affected by it, and can take people to cross the Yellow River safely.

"Boatman, we want to go to the other side of the Yellow River, can we make a boat?" Early in the morning, as soon as Lin Xi arrived on the bank of the Yellow River, he stopped a boatman who had just started work.

"That's a lot of people...... You can't carry one boat, so you'll have to take two boats. ”

"It's okay, two is two, and I ask the shipmaster to work hard to help us find another shipmaster."

Unexpectedly, when the boat was sailing, the boatman suddenly stood on the shore and said to Lin Xi: "Pay the boat fare first, and tattoo two taels of silver." ”

"How much?" Lin Xi was stupid directly, I am afraid that two taels of silver will not be able to buy the entire boat.

"The guest officer hears you."

Yanshou jumped ashore from the boat again angrily: "Hey! Aren't you robbing money? Two boats ferrying costs two taels of silver? ”

"Hey, you can't say that, as long as the guest officer gives it, I can ensure that everyone crosses the river safely, and if the guest officer thinks it's expensive, then you can also look for it along the Yellow River."

"Longevity, just this time, let's hurry, two taels will be two."

"The guest officer is refreshing, let's get on the boat!"

Although the water flow is moderate, the turbulence of the Yellow River is still unimaginable. However, it has to be said that these people who have been begging for a living on the Yellow River all year round do have a level beyond ordinary people, and the two small boats rise and fall in the Yellow River, although they are bumpy, but they maintain a good balance.

"The guest officer is going west?" On the boat, the boatman chatted with Lin Xi.

"Exactly,"

"Go west, but still have to cross the Yellow River?"

"That's right, you do have to cross the Yellow River."

"Guest officer, don't blame the old man for talking too much, the current of the Yellow River has been more turbulent and abnormal than in the past recently, so ...... It is better for the guest officer to walk slowly. ”

"Boatman, I haven't lived near the Yellow River before, can you make me clearer?"

"It's almost to the other side, and if you have some words, let's get off the boat."
