Chapter Forty-Six: Mountains and Waters Are Filled with Doubts, and There Is No Way Out
Chai Zhiheng hugged Ling'er, and under the leadership of Dieyi, he ran all the way forward non-stop.
When passing by the hotel where Zhou Qinghai lived, the afterglow of his eyes skimmed to Zhou Qinghai, who looked a little familiar, and felt familiar, but when he saw Zhou Qinghai's gloomy face, a cold hatred erupted from his eyes, thinking that Zhou Qinghai was not a good person, and he was forced to flee in a hurry, so he quickly ran forward without looking back.
After galloping west from the hotel for sixty miles, I walked to Chai Zhiheng, Ling'er, Dieyi and two horses, and saw a small restaurant on the side of the road, and got off the horse to eat.
Walking into the hotel, the shopkeeper saw that although the clothes were dirty, the three guests who were dressed in this town, who were absolutely gorgeous in this town, walked up to Chai Zhiheng in three steps and two steps, nodded to Chai Zhiheng and said objectively what kind of food to use.
Chai Zhiheng thought about the pursuers behind him, and wanted to continue to flee to Dieyi's house as fast as he could, but the tired horses became slower and slower, so he decided to eat in this restaurant and feed the horses before going to Huanshan Village, Dieyi's village, to hear it.
Chai Zhiheng told the shopkeeper that the three of them were in a hurry, and asked them to hurry up and make some meals, and serve them, and in addition, make some meals for their horses.
The shopkeeper heard that a big customer came today, "Okay"
happily picked up the towel and ran back to the back hall.
After a while, some cold dishes and beef were brought to the table, and Chai Zhiheng and the three of them devoured them regardless of the eyes of others.
Two horses, who lived a poor life in a mountain village, suddenly arrived late for such a delicious meal, and their stomachs were round one by one.
After eating vegetables and three bowls of knife-cut noodles, the three of them rode on their horses and fled west quickly after giving the shopkeeper two pieces of silver.
In the village 30 miles away from Huanshan Village, Dieyi told Chai Zhiheng that Huanshan Village is surrounded by mountains, and there are only two narrow exits in the east and west to pass through the village.
Chai Zhiheng gave two horses to two poor families in this village, and the two poor families saw these three living bodhisattvas falling from the sky, and they worshiped happily one by one.
In order to express their gratitude to Chai Zhiheng and the three of them, the two families must invite Chai Zhiheng and the three of them to eat a bowl of good noodles at home before leaving, but Chai Zhiheng refused, picked up Ling'er and Dieyi and ran along a narrow path to the west.
Huanshan Village is an easy-to-live and safe place found by some ordinary people when they fled to the mountains and forests to escape the war, where the land is relatively fertile, the water source is clear and sufficient, and it is difficult for outsiders to find it.
In this way, the villagers of Huanshan Village have lived here for generations, living in isolation except for going to the western market to buy necessary labor supplies.
The thorns on the side of the road scratched blood marks on the bodies of the three people, and the three people didn't care about the painful wounds and ran all the way forward.
After walking twenty miles, Chai Zhiheng, Ling'er and Dieyi stopped in front of a towering and steep mountain peak.
Chai Zhiheng asked Ling'er why there was no road ahead, and if they were taking the wrong path.
One of Lu Junliang's disciples saw three grass shops and some chicken bones at the entrance of the cave with sharp eyes on a dawn morning, and shouted "Master, Master"
, Lu Junliang heard the shout, knew that he had found some clues, and immediately rushed over.
Lu Junliang looked at the chicken bones and grass on the ground, and thought to himself that in this valley where no one lives, it must have been left behind by Chai Zhiheng and the others when they escaped.
Immediately shouted his disciples to chase Chai Zhiheng and Ling'er forward.
Lu Junliang's apprentice came to the small village where Chai Zhiheng bought a horse under the leadership of Lu Junliang, Lu Junliang had a smile on his face, and asked the mountain people if they had seen two people passing by here, and the mountain people saw that these people were carrying weapons, not like good people, and the villagers of their own village got Chai Zhiheng's favor again, saying that they had not seen two people escape from here.
Lu Junliang, a black and strong apprentice, picked up a big knife, put the knife on the neck of the villager, and said If you don't say it, if you don't say it, your whole village will be washed in blood.
The villager who spoke was so frightened that he fell to his knees, and the other villagers fled in all directions in fright.
Lu Junliang scolded, told the disciple to put the knife down, and then quickly stepped forward to help the trembling mountain people, saying Brother, you don't have to be afraid, we are not bad people, we are officers and soldiers chasing fugitives, the official just now was rude, scared the eldest brother, I will compensate you.
The mountain people looked at the clothes of Lu Junliang and the disciples of the Kongtong faction, and Lu Junliang saw the thoughts of the mountain people, saying that they made up like this in order to hunt down the two vicious fugitives, and they were indeed the county government's fast catchers.
The mountain people were so frightened that their pupils dilated twice, and they said to themselves in their hearts that they didn't have his two horses, and they didn't owe him anything, so they didn't have to lose their lives for him, and besides, those people were fugitives, and they deserved to be arrested.
In a panic, he told Lu Junliang that he had not seen two people, and saw three people buy two horses and gallop westward.
Lu Junliang smiled and took out a silver ingot from his pocket and handed it to the mountain people.
The mountain people said that this was what he should do, and he categorically did not dare to accept it.
Lu Junliang stuffed the silver into the trembling hands of the mountain people, and then with a roar, he chased westward.
When the mountain people heard this roar, their bodies shook, and the silver fell from their hands.
Lu Junliang quickly chased west with his apprentices.
The mountain people trembled their wet legs, happily walked back to the mountain village with the silver, and happily said to the surrounding mountain people that they were very happy.
The surrounding villagers had just woken up from their fright, and they asked one by one if it was a big wet, a big wet!
You see that your legs are wet, and the fearful hearts of the surrounding mountain people are driven away by this laughter, and they laugh at this mountain people with good intentions.
The mountain man blushed and looked at his diaper's pants, took out a piece of silver from his pocket, and said that he was indeed frightened just now, but the living man was a fast catcher, not a bad person, they were chasing the fugitives, and I told them that the three men had fled westward, and they gave me five good silver.
The surrounding villagers slowly walked away with jealousy and ridicule.
Chai Zhiheng gave them the silver of the two villagers, thinking about Chai Zhiheng, Ling'er, Dieyi and the group of fast catchers, thinking about it, they all felt that Chai Zhiheng, Ling'er and Dieyi did not look like bad people, and those fierce and vicious catchers did not look like good people.
One mountain man walked into another mountain man's house, closed the door and told the other mountain man what he thought, and the other mountain man nodded, agreeing with the mountain dweller's opinion.
