Chapter 260, Fleeing on a Rainy Night

The Western Inclined Army is ready to go, and the reason why it is still ready to go is because the Western Zhou Dynasty has not launched an attack on the southwestern defense line of Great Wei.

It is said that Elder Xu has sent a secret letter to the four princes of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the Western Zhou side has already known that the current defenders in the southwest of the Great Wei have no main general, and it is a good time to attack, and once they send troops, the western side will also send troops to respond, but for some reason, the four princes have been holding their troops still.

Elder Xu has not heard from him since he went to the Western Zhou, could it be that he has an accident here? Elder Xu is a steady and thoughtful person, and he has been in charge of the contact with the Western Zhou side all these years, so the chance of an accident is not very high. If it wasn't for Elder Xu's accident, it was something wrong with the Western Zhou side. In order to compete for the position of the crown prince, the fourth prince will not give up such a great opportunity to make meritorious contributions, he will not be moved when he receives the news of the big toast, and the reason why he did not act is either because he does not believe the news sent by the big toast, or he has other scruples.

But no matter what the situation was, Elder Xu should send back the news. Da Tusi then sent several groups of people to find out the news, but the result was that all mud cows entered the sea.

In the face of such a situation, Da Tusi, who has always had no emotions exposed, also seemed a little irritable.

......

Xue Ming was drunk that day and slept until dusk the next day, and when he woke up, he didn't feel anything other than feeling hungry in his belly, not at all like the reaction he should have after being drunk, but like he really slept for a long time.

After sobering up, Xue Ming asked to see the Great Toast, but Elder Mu shirked left and right, so Xue Ming never saw the Great Toast. Although he was not allowed to see Da Tusi, the Yue family took care of Xue Ming's daily life and sent two people to take care of him. Xue Ming wanted to meet the four personal soldiers who came with him, and Elder Mu smiled and said that these four had returned to the army. Xue Ming understood the reason for this, and he was placed under house arrest by the Yue clan.

Being placed under house arrest here, Xue Ming was very anxious and worried. Now the Western Zhou Dynasty is on the border, and war may start at any time. He has been operating the southwest defense line for many years, which can be said to be impregnable, and his subordinates have also followed him for many years, and he also made arrangements when he left the army.

But Xue Ming was anxiously worried about Yue's attitude. The Yue clan must have a plan to put him under house arrest here, and if the Yue clan joins forces with the Western Zhou, the southwest will definitely fall into a crisis, and in that case, the generals under him may not be able to cope with it. However, through the observation of the Yue family's main village in the past few days, the situation he was most worried about did not seem to have happened so far.

It hasn't happened now, but it doesn't mean that it won't happen in the future, and the Yue family won't trick him into house arrest for no reason. Under house arrest as the chief border guard of the imperial court, the Yue clan must be ready to tear his face with the imperial court, the reason why the Yue clan is not moving now is what he should be waiting for, so Xue Ming felt that he should take this opportunity to leave the Yue clan.

The Xixie Mountain, which has been operated by the Yue clan for hundreds of years, is like a tiger's den in Longtan, and it is not so easy to leave, not to mention that Xue Ming is alone now. However, even if his four personal soldiers were there, it would be impossible to break out of Xilanshan Mountain.

The Yue clan was not completely restricted to Xue Ming's freedom, but it was also limited to activities in the designated area. The two Yue people who were in charge of "taking care" of his life were inseparable from him, and he didn't know how many pairs of eyes were staring at him in the dark, so it was almost impossible for him to escape unless someone helped. Xue Ming has no friends in the Yue clan, and the only one who can help him is Yue Bai, who has never met, but the problem is that Yue Bai is not in the mountains now.

"When will you be back?"

Xue Ming didn't know how many times he had asked this question in his heart, but judging from the current situation, Yue Bai's departure from the Yue clan should have been deliberately arranged by Da Tusi, so he couldn't come back for a while.

There was no chance, no one to assist, but he couldn't sit still, Xue Ming decided to take a risk himself. Taking advantage of the time of free activities, Xue Ming observed the surrounding terrain, paid attention to everything that happened around him, and as long as he felt the slightest opportunity, he would escape from the Yue clan's main village and enter the vast western slope mountain. Although the future of entering the mountains is unknown, there is a glimmer of hope than waiting here.

Since being placed under house arrest, Xue has obviously been very cooperative, which has gradually made the people who monitor him relax their vigilance.

One night, thunderstorms, Xue Ming felt that the opportunity had come, and when the secret posts changed guards, he quietly subdued two Yue people who guarded him, and then changed into the clothes of one of them, taking advantage of the night, under the cover of the thunderstorm, quietly left the residence and fled to the mountains outside the village.

Perennial marching and fighting, especially in the southwest, with rolling mountains and rivers, Xue Ming's ability to survive in the wild and identify directions is beyond the reach of ordinary people. The mountain road in and out of the Yue clan was heavily guarded, and it was almost impossible to get out from there, so after leaving the village safely, Xue Ming walked directly into the mountain.

The summer rain can sometimes fall for several days, sometimes for a while.

The rain stopped, and the sky gradually brightened, and Xue Ming knew that his escape would soon be discovered, so he couldn't take a break and hurried away during this time.

Every morning, a Yue family would come to Xue Ming's small courtyard to ask what to eat for breakfast. In the past, when he came, Xue Ming and the other two Yue people had already woken up, but today he entered the courtyard and saw no one. It may also be that the heavy rain last night didn't make the three of them sleep well, so they got up late today. With this in mind, he lowered his footsteps and slowly walked into the room. He saw two companions sleeping on the bed, but Xue Ming was the only one.

"Oh no, General Xue escaped!"

The Yue people ran to the courtyard in panic and shouted. His shout was like a thunderstorm last night, instantly waking up the still somewhat sleepy Yue's cottage.

The first to arrive was the dark sentry around the small courtyard, because of the thunderstorm last night, the arrival time of these few of them was a little late, maybe it was at this time that Xue Ming escaped from the cottage. But no matter what, Xue Ming escaped under their surveillance, and their responsibility was the greatest.

This is the first time that someone has escaped from the Yue Clan's cottage, and if they want to be held accountable, they will be the first to bear the burden. They knew very well what kind of punishment awaited them, so each of them was terrified. If you want to avoid punishment, or reduce the punishment, then you can only make up for Xue Ming.

However, it is too difficult for a few of them to catch Xue Ming now, more than an hour has passed, and the distance that Xue Ming ran out must be very far, and in the vast mountains, the number of them is too small. But even if they couldn't catch Xue Ming, they couldn't just stand here like this, a few people exchanged glances, and divided into three groups and went in different directions.

Elder Mu and the other elders arrived a little late, and when they asked about the situation, they sent a police officer while arranging for someone to pursue them. After doing this, Elder Mu went to see the Great Toast nervously.

There are many kinds of warnings from the Yue Clan, and the one that Elder Mu issued just now is the one with the highest level, this kind of warning can make Xixie Mountain instantly turn into a fortress, and it is impossible for any stranger to enter and exit.

But Yue Bai is not a stranger to Xixiao Mountain, on the contrary, he can be said to know Xixiao Mountain better than anyone else, not to mention that he is the young master of the Yue clan, and he wants to enter and exit at will.

Yue Bai took Chen Qi and Xia Jue to rush back to the west non-stop, if it weren't for the heavy rain last night, they would have arrived at the Yue family's main village now. In order to see Da Tusi as soon as possible to stop his actions, Yue Bai took Chen Qi Xia Jue and turned into a path that few people knew about shortly after entering the mountains. The trail is short, and you don't have to be checked by the sentry along the way, which saves about an hour.

Not long after entering the path, Yue Bai found the warning issued by Elder Mu, and he stopped and looked at the warning with a condensed face. Chen Qi and Xia Jue also stopped, Chen Qi glanced at the warning, and then asked Yuebai: "What happened?"

Yue Bai said: "This is the highest level warning of our Yue clan, and it will not be issued until the most dangerous time." As soon as this warning came out, the entire Xilanshan Mountain became a fortress, and the grass and trees were full of soldiers. ”

Chen Qi said: "Is it because of us?"

Yue Bai shook his head and said, "No." But whatever the reason, something big must have happened in the mountains, and we need to see my father as soon as possible. ”

Chen Qi nodded, and then followed Yue Bai to continue walking. Take a hundred times to read the latest chapter of "Tianwen Thirteen Sword Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
