Chapter 1: The Fugitives

In the vast wilderness, a figure stumbled and ran, he ran so eagerly, even if he would often fall to the ground, kowtow and bleed, he did not slow down a bit. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 It was as if there was a deadly enemy behind him, and he had to run desperately to get his life.

However, there was nothing behind him, and he was the only one in the barren field.

He was barefoot, unkempt, and ragged, like a beggar, and his long, knotted hair covered his entire face, making it impossible to distinguish his appearance.

He was like tireless, running day and night, running for his life.

Fields, wastelands, mountains, meadows, mountains, rivers...... He kept running.

All the way non-stop, encounter fields, steal some rice, encounter rivers and lakes, drink a full meal, encounter mountains and forests, capture wild things and drink blood......

Only when he encounters a person, even if he only senses it, and hears the slightest sound, he will dodge it with all his strength and flee in the opposite direction, as if human beings are more terrible than man-eating beasts.

In this way, this figure was aimless, crazy, across the mountains and seas, and kept running away.

Rolling thunder rang out in the sky, dark clouds began to gather, and it was a pouring rain.

"Wow"

It was pouring down, and the summer thunderstorms were so violent that the whole world was drowned in the world of water.

However, in the heavy rain that covered the sky and the sun, this figure still fled, and had no intention of stopping.

"Smack"

He stumbled and fell into the mud.

Rolling on the ground a few times, struggling, he tried to get up, but tried to hold on a few times but failed, often just halfway up, then bent his arm and fell again.

The months of running had already emptied his body, and occasional food could not make up for the deficit in his body, and his body had been corrupted to the extreme, and he was already at the end of his crossbow, and he could no longer run away.

But with the support of his survival instincts, he struggled, crawling through the muddy water, slowly moving forward, hiding under a bush that could barely hide from the rain.

Then he could no longer hold it and fainted in the mud.

......

The thunderstorm came and went as fast as it came, but after a while, the dark clouds dissipated and the sun fell on the earth again.

In the mud after the rain, a man and a woman were on their way, struggling to pull their legs and feet out of the mud and move forward, they were still talking.

"It's damn weather, it's changing, and it's still a good day when I go out in the morning. It was the young man who spoke, he looked like five or six, with a short knife at his waist, and he looked very capable.

"That's not to blame you? I don't bring a raincoat, I don't bring an umbrella, what kind of shortcuts do you have, if you take the avenue, where will it be like now?" The girl next to her looked twenty-eight years old and had a delicate face, but now she had a look of disdain

"Well, don't I want to get to Munster as soon as possible?" said the young man, "I've been walking this shortcut for so many years, but who could have expected it to rain?"

"It's all your fault, it's all because you're in a hurry! The assessment will only start in three days, what's the use of you being in such a hurry?" the beautiful girl still didn't intend to let him go.

"Alas, my good sister, why don't you understand? It's not that I'm anxious, the assessment organized is not so simple, and there are five people who participated in the assessment this time, and all of them are good players! If you want to get a good score and pass the assessment, how can you do it without some preparation? Isn't it that I went over in advance and tried to find a way to establish a good relationship with the people in the branch. The young man patiently explained, "Okay, okay, when we get to Hanover, I'll find you a place to stay and let you take a hot bath, okay." ”

"Hmph, count you as acquaintances!" snorted arrogantly, and the girl stopped talking.

Suddenly, the girl stopped and looked in one direction: "Wait! Over there...... There seems to be someone over there!"

"Anyone?" the young man immediately became alert, and put one hand on the short knife at his waist.

Then the two of them cautiously approached the direction, and the young man's hand had completely grasped the handle of the knife, ready to draw it at any moment.

The dense bushes were kicked away a bit, revealing half of a man's body.

After a little more rounding, the two of them saw the figure clearly, and saw that it was a medium-sized man, unkempt, ragged, with large and small bruises on his body, lying motionless in the muddy water, and even his skin was soaked a little white and blue.

The young man kicked the figure again, but the figure remained motionless.

The young man let out a sigh of relief, let go of the hilt of the knife, and said to his sister who was hiding behind him, "What else should I think of, just a corpse, don't care." ”

"Corpse?" came the girl's weak voice from behind.

The young man had no choice but to explain: "It looks like a beggar, or a vagabond, or a runaway serf, etc., and he is wounded and drenched in the rain, even if he is not dead, he is probably about the same, and there is no need to care about ......it."

The girl peeked out from behind her brother and looked timidly at the figure who had fallen to the ground.

"Alright, let's go. The young man urged directly.

"It doesn't seem good to be gone like this, he may not be dead yet?" the girl's tone was a little hesitant: "Shall we ...... or not"

"Alas, Alyssa, I know you have a good heart, but the people in this world can't be saved!" the young man interrupted her: "There are many people in this world who freeze to death every day and starve to death, and there are hundreds of serfs like this who die every day on the manor, and we Munster alone have hundreds of thousands! How many can you save?"

"But...... I can't leave it alone when I see it!" After a moment of silence, the girl stomped her foot, stepped forward, and began to examine the "poor man" in front of her.

The young man had no choice but to leave his sister alone, so he had to stand by and wait.

He ...... He's not dead yet!he's still breathing!" The girl's voice was full of excitement: "He must have passed out here because he looked too weak, you see, he has lost weight like this, he must have been subjected to inhuman abuse before! But he has a good physical foundation, but he has not had enough food for a long time to ......"

While analyzing, the girl took out a small porcelain bottle from her arms, unsealed it, and was about to pour out the pill.

"You're crazy!" The young man couldn't hold back any longer, and stepped forward and snatched the porcelain vase: "Do you know how many points this life-saving pill has? This is a life-saving thing! How can it be wasted on such a serf!"

The girl turned her head and looked at the young man, her eyes were resolute: "I know that the pill is very expensive! But I'm saving people right now! He has only one breath left now!

"But you can't ...... either" The young man still protected the porcelain vase: "Then don't save it, it's not worth it at all! The price of this life-saving pill is enough to buy thirty or forty serfs on the black market! You save them from the sea of suffering." And that's all you can save now!"

"Give it to me, I'll save it!" the girl pursed her lips, her bright eyes fixed on the young man.

After a stalemate for a while, the young man finally gave in, handed over the porcelain vase, and couldn't help but admonish: "Just one, just one! One grain is enough......

The girl ignored it, poured out two pills, combined them with the rain, and fed them to the nameless figure.

After a while, a trace of ruddy blood appeared on the serf's face, and even the body temperature slowly recovered.

The girl also let out a sigh: "Okay, carry him up." ”

"Me?" the young man pointed to himself, and then to the filthy figure in the bushes, "Back him?"

"He still can't survive staying here, you have to take him away, otherwise this pill won't be eaten in vain?" The girl's eyes seemed to be looking at an idiot: "Moreover, you can't let me carry it." ”

After hesitating for two seconds, the young man compromised again and lifted the figure up helplessly.

One step deep, one step shallow, the two rushed to Munster City again.
