Chapter Twenty-Four: Captured

He Xun was really innocent, he wanted to shelter from the rain and found this cave, and because of curiosity, he discovered the secret in the cave, and at this moment he was surrounded by dozens of people in the corner. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Looking at the dozen or so crude weapons that resembled spears stretched out beside him, He Xun couldn't help but retreat. Things went back to a moment ago, He Xun crouched around the corner and looked into the cave. I saw that there were many men, women, and even children resting here in this cave, and there were as many as 100 people in a rough count. It is not strange that there are people in the caves in this big mountain, but people are hiding in the caves, and there are so many people, even if He Xundang, who has always been afraid of trouble, wants to retreat, but before he can be found by a middle-aged man in white.

The middle-aged man's heart was suddenly startled, and he immediately sent out a warning signal, and one of the hundred and ten people immediately grabbed the weapons around him and surrounded He Xun.

"I'm just passing by......," He Xun said as he stepped back with his long stick across his chest as a counter,

"Who are you fooling!" retorted one of them, trembling with a spear, or a long-handled weapon that counts as a spear. Why is it a spear, because many weapons in the hands of the people around them are just sharp knives or sharp objects tied to the ends of the sticks, nothing more.

Looking at the broken weapons in the hands of these people, He Xun sighed and said: "Zai Xia is definitely not a bad person, it is really because the rain outside is too strong that he went into the cave to hide for a while, and this matter of seeing you is definitely not intentional." “

When several people around heard this, the weapons in their hands lowered slightly, and they looked at each other trying to find a solution.

"Mr. Bai......" As soon as He Xun saw that there was a door, he just wanted to persuade again, only to hear a middle-aged man in white who was staring at him with a vigilant look not far away.

The middle-aged man known as Mr. Bai was dressed in a somewhat old Confucian robe, his hair was tied up in a mess, and he was obviously dressed in a bookish manner, but this person walked forward with a glance at He Xun and asked in a cold voice: "You said you didn't do it on purpose, why did you want to run away when you just saw us here!

He Xun's cheeks twitched, and he really didn't know how to explain it. He smiled awkwardly and said, "I was born to be the kind of person who was afraid of trouble, and today I only saw you gathering in this cave...... I was afraid that I would cause trouble for myself, so I ......"

He Xun didn't continue, but only clarified that he didn't mean to spy, he didn't want to know what everyone was doing in the cave, and he didn't want to get involved in these troublesome things.

Mr. Bai pinched his chin and looked at He Xun thoughtfully, the look of vigilance in his eyes did not diminish at all. looked each other up and down, just looking at the other party's dress, he looked like a son of a family. But why did the people of the family appear here? Turning his head and glancing at the women and children not far away, Mr. Bai's heart was very heavy, his own people were almost exhausted, and if he provoked the family members at this time, I am afraid that it would make matters worse......

Glancing at He Xun again, Mr. Bai was ruthless in his heart, and waved his hand to the crowd holding weapons, and the crowd slowly retreated away from He Xun's side.

"Hu ......" saw that he was no longer pointed at by dozens of weapons, and breathed a sigh of relief. Straightened out the robe on his body, arched his hand to Mr. Bai and said, "Thank you, sir...... I'm going to ...... off the horse."

As soon as He Xun turned around, he felt the figure behind him move, and his body flashed involuntarily. He Xun looked at Mr. Bai who was blocking his way out, and said, "Isn't Mr. already going to go down? What does this mean?" He Xun frowned, looking at the person in front of him, and a trace of alertness rose in his heart, after all, this person still didn't believe what he said. Could it be that he just saw something and broke some secret to them?

Mr. Bai looked at He Xun coldly and said, "Although I spared your life, I can't let you go!"

"Why?" He Xun asked again.

"For the sake of my safety, please stay here for a while longer, and after I confirm that I am safe, Childe can leave!" Mr. Bai glanced at the people behind He Xun before he said.

"......" He Xun also glanced behind him: "I take the liberty to ask, Mr. and his party...... Are you being hunted?"

Hmph!" Mr. Bai snorted coldly and said angrily: "This is not something you should know!

...... Seeing Mr. Bai's reaction, He Xun had already determined seventy percent in his heart. Now that he knows why the other party has such an attitude, He Xun is naturally a lot calmer, he didn't want to conflict with him in the first place, and since the other party doesn't have this idea, then it's good to be safe. didn't talk to the other party again, just quietly found a place in the cave to sit cross-legged, waiting for the other party to relax, anyway, it would be pouring rain when going out now, so it was better to take shelter from the rain here.

Seeing He Xun walk into the cave and sit down, Mr. Bai waved a few people and ordered them to keep an eye on He Xun, and then he returned to the crowd to be busy with his own business.

Maybe it was because after a confrontation just now, He Xun also felt a little tired, but fortunately, the cave was still relatively quiet, although he couldn't lie down and fall asleep, but he could close his eyes and recuperate.

In the crowd, Mr. Bai withdrew his hand from the wrist of a child and told the other party the news of his health with a smile. The child smiled and thanked him, then jumped up and found his friends to continue playing. Through the gap in the crowd, Mr. Bai began to pay attention to where He Xun was. It's a coincidence that this person came, and although he didn't want to be a wicked person on the outside, he had to guard against such a difficult time. Leave him for a day and a half, and let him go if he is safe, and save one more element of instability in this ranks.

Since he learned that Mr. Bai and his party had no intention of harming themselves for the time being, He Xun also relaxed and settled at ease. Suddenly, a smell of ripe rice wafted into his nose, He Xun opened his eyes and saw that a seventeen or eight-year-old girl not far away was cautiously holding a wooden bowl towards him, because it was a little full, so a pair of big eyes stared at the wooden bowl in his hand to prevent it from spilling.

When he approached He Xun, the little girl raised her eyes and saw that the other party had woken up and looked at her, and she was startled. An unstable hand dropped the wooden bowl, He Xun's body moved, and he instantly stepped forward and reached out to catch the wooden bowl.

"Scaring you?" He Xun asked, holding the wooden bowl in one hand and smiling.

The girl nodded, and immediately turned and ran back into the crowd.

He Xun held the wooden bowl and threw a smile to the little girl in the crowd, Mr. Bai, the little girl grabbed the sleeve of the woman next to her and dodged her, while Mr. Bai continued to check the injuries of everyone as if he didn't see it.

After running in the rain for a while, and experiencing the confrontation just now, He Xun was indeed a little hungry in his stomach, so he picked up the wooden bowl and raised his head to drink, and after he finished drinking, He Xun looked at the bottom of the bowl, only a handful of rice grains were lying at the bottom of the bowl, and then looked at the crowd not far away, everyone lined up to receive a bowl of food, and it turned out to be the same clear soup and little water in his hand.

'These people ......" He Xun looked at a woman who was cleaning up the empty rice bag, and there was a trace of pain in his heart. “...... Are you going to run out of food?" and then looked at the bottom of the bowl, where the plump rice grains were still lying in it. Ignoring the others, he reached out and pulled the rice grains at the bottom of the bowl into his mouth.

Putting the wooden bowl beside him, He Xun began to look at the crowd in front of him again, and there was no dislike for this group of people just now in his heart. I just thought about why these people were being hunted down...... And who are the people who are chasing them......

Just as He Xun was thinking, suddenly two people ran in at the entrance of the cave with panicked faces. I saw that the other party found Mr. Bai in the crowd, and said a few words tremblingly, and the crowd was instantly like a stone thrown into a calm pond, and the crowd suddenly panicked, He Xun was also attracted by this commotion, and he didn't know what happened, so he saw that Mr. Bai took a sword beside him with a hideous face and shouted: "Protect the woman and the child first!"

"Bai ......" He Xun stood up, and was about to stop the other party, only to see Mr. Bai's long sword drawn towards He Xun and rushed over.

"Thief, look at the sword!" Mr. Bai suddenly shouted, and the long sword stabbed at him in an instant.

He Xun dodged and dodged, avoiding this sudden sword, knowing that the other party had misunderstood, he must not hurt him, so he had to say: "Mr. Bai, you misunderstood!"

"You eagle dog of the court! I will kill you first today!" Mr. Bai gritted his teeth, and with a dance of his long sword in his hand, he attacked again. He Xun swung his long stick and struck the long sword, forcing the opponent back again.

"Listen to me...... I'm really not ......" He Xun still didn't give up, and persuaded again.

But the other party was so angry that he couldn't listen to anything at all. The long sword changed a few moves in the air, and a sword struck towards He Xun's face gate.

Seeing that the other party ignored his advice, He Xun was also a little annoyed, and with a pinch of the long stick in his hand, the stick was swept out with a blow, and only heard a ding, and the long sword held by Mr. Bai was smashed by He Xun.

"Drink!" The long sword was damaged, and he said that the other party could calm down, but he didn't think that the other party's right fist turned into a palm, and suddenly hit. He Xun didn't have time to think about it, he greeted each other with one palm, and the two palms collided, and a huge force poured out from He Xun's palm, knocking the other party back a few steps. Mr. Bai put his left hand on his chest, spit out a mouthful of blood with "wow", and then fell to the ground motionless.

When He Xun saw it, he suddenly panicked in his heart. The slap was so hurried that it completely lost its strength. hurriedly walked towards the fallen Mr. Bai, leaned over to help him up, and probed his nose with his hand, and there was still some breath. He Xun breathed a sigh of relief, and his heart was fine.

Looking down at Mr. Bai again, he saw that the other party's eyes suddenly opened, and a puff of white smoke spit out on He Xun's face.

He Xun threw the other party away, struggled to stand up, and saw Mr. Bai get up from the ground by himself in a daze, looking at himself with a smile......

"Plop" He Xun rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.
