Of course, Zhao Ming was reluctant to give up any rations.

But there was a reason for it, and he couldn't bear to continue killing.

Shaking his head, Zhao Ming turned his head and left, but as he walked, he suddenly found that someone was following behind him, and when he looked sideways, it turned out to be the woman.

Drawing her knife slightly, the woman ran away in panic.

But not long after leaving, Zhao Ming found this woman again.

Too lazy to pay attention, Zhao Ming silently continued to move forward, collecting the water in the water bladder, and then chose a house and clothes that were sheltered enough to lie down, holding a knife in his arms, although he was sleeping, he was still vigilant.

The door was held against a wooden stick, and outsiders who tried to enter it would wake him up.

Just squinted for a while, and after an hour, Zhao Ming couldn't help frowning, the door kept shaking, to say that the wind was obviously abnormal.

There is something to resist, and it is impossible to shake so badly.

After thinking about it, Zhao Ming pressed the handle of the knife, and quietly got out of bed and moved the crosswood, but as soon as the crosswood moved away, a sudden figure rolled in like a tumbling ball.

Zhao Ming almost slashed it out, but when he saw it clearly, he frowned slightly.

"You're not gone yet!"

It was still the woman in front of her, the woman was a little embarrassed to get up, and her face covered with dirt under the moonlight looked very restrained.

Looking at the thin figure of the woman, the strong wind blowing outside, after a little hesitation, Zhao Ming still closed the door.

"Find a place in the house to sleep for the night, don't follow me tomorrow, be careful that I kill you!"

Zhao Ming dropped a sentence and continued to hold the knife and lean against the wall of the bed to rest.

Because of someone, Zhao Ming didn't dare to sleep, just closed his eyes and recuperated, but I don't know if it was because he was too tired, and gradually a wave of sleepiness kept coming, and Zhao Ming still fell asleep in a groggy state.

The woman was in the dark room, just glanced at the man on the bed, she moved to a slightly more comfortable place and fell asleep as well, I don't know why she was much more comfortable sleeping here.

In a hazy moment, Zhao Ming vaguely heard some subtle movements, and he suddenly woke up in an instant.

I was relieved to find that my knife and food were there.

His eyes moved, and he found that not far away on the stove, a thin figure was squatting next to the stove and burning the fire, with hot air in his mouth and shivering all over.

The clothes on the woman's body are very thin and tattered, and the temperature difference between day and night in Guanzhong is quite large at this time, and it is indeed cold to wear such a dress at night.

It seemed that she also noticed that Zhao Ming was waking up, she trembled slightly, looked at Zhao Ming cautiously, and at the same time shrank and hid a little farther away.

Zhao Ming ignored the woman, opened the door and looked around, there seemed to be no one in the village, and then closed the door.

"Roast it, bake it and divide it for you."

Hearing this, the woman looked at the big lump of meat in front of her in a daze, a little confused and overwhelmed, and soon a little frightened, shaking her head again and again.

"Don't worry, it's not human flesh, it's fragrant meat, I kill people but don't eat people."

Zhao Ming's hoarse voice made the woman breathe a sigh of relief.

It's not uncommon for people to eat people along the way, but it's all crazy, and once you eat a bite of human flesh, you will become a crazy person without any scruples.

The woman kept watching the fragrant meat and swallowing wildly while roasting the fragrant meat.

It can be seen that the woman is very careful, and I don't know if the cooking skills are good for the time being, but the baking is just right, and there is no burning.

Putting the meat in front of Zhao Ming, the woman didn't dare to reach out to take it.

Zhao Ming directly cut about one or two pieces of meat with a knife and handed it to the woman, and the woman grabbed it and immediately kept chewing.

The woman also didn't dare to swallow too fast, just kept chewing in her mouth.

It's just that no matter how small the chewing is, the woman is still choked when she swallows, her face is red, and she keeps beating her chest.

"Drink some, don't drink too much."

Taking the water handed over, the woman took a small sip, and obediently just drank a little, relieved the symptoms and gave up.

And Zhao Ming himself began to eat meat, he didn't eat much, after eating two taels, he wrapped the remaining fragrant meat in a cloth ball and put it in his arms.

The grilled fragrant meat is fragrant in a short time, and if you don't hide it well, you can't kill anyone.

Carrying a knife, Zhao Ming went out again, and the escape continued.

At the end of the day, Zhao Ming found that the woman was still far behind, and she tried her best to chase tighter, but her foot strength and physical strength were limited, and it was difficult to continue.

Zhao Ming just glanced at it silently, and didn't give the woman another sip of food and water.

The next day, the woman was still following from a distance, she was left farther and her steps more staggering, like a walking corpse hanging from behind.

Seeing this, Zhao Ming couldn't help but sigh.

——

On the side of a hillside, a bonfire rose with jumping flames, Zhao Ming glanced at the woman next to him who was gobbling up, and said lightly, "Dumb? Can you speak? ”

The woman paused as she ate and drank, and nodded hesitantly.

"What's it called, what's that man's relationship with you?" Zhao Ming asked directly.

One hand had actually quietly touched the hilt of the knife.

"I.... I.... My name is Tao Yan, that.... That person is not... It's not my man...."

The woman seemed to have been a little disadvantageous after not speaking for a long time, but after taking a sip of water, she spoke much more fluently.

"This name, have you read a book?" Zhao Ming's eyes kept staring at each other.

The woman nodded and shook her head, "In the 15th year of the People's Republic, the Zhensong army besieged Xi'an Mansion, and the siege of the city was plundered, and I went home to visit my relatives and was plundered.

The man.... He used to be from the Zhensong Army, but then I heard the man say that the Zhensong Army was scattered, and he became a homeless..."

As if she was afraid that Zhao Ming would misunderstand something, the woman explained, "I.... I hate him, I won't help him get revenge, I will do laundry, cook and sing little songs, you can do whatever you want me to do, as long as you don't leave me! ”

The woman's eyes were full of pleading, and she thought about running away countless times beside the man.

It didn't work, a few times he escaped but was quickly recaptured, and each time he was caught, he was beaten more and more severely.

Later, when the famine became more severe, there was no way to escape, and if you escaped, you would only die faster.

The man in front of her was her only lifeline, and she didn't want to give up.

"It used to be a thin horse in Yangzhou, right? I think it's also fake to visit relatives, most of them were robbed by rebels when they were sent to Xi'an Mansion. Next time, the Yangzhou accent is well covered up and then lies. ”

Zhao Ming said coldly, and he didn't say that he wouldn't leave her, nor did he say that he would leave her.

After saying all this, he leaned against the hillside and rested with his sword.

He took a closer look at this woman now, and she was definitely a delicate beauty.

With a Yangzhou accent, it's hell if it's not a skinny horse.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next day Zhao Ming and the others were just about to get up and continue their journey, but suddenly Zhao Ming's expression froze, and he hurriedly bowed his head to the ground and listened carefully.
