Chapter VIII
Chapter VIII
There is always something to protect in life, even if sometimes it will cost with life, no one will be allowed to desecrate the sacredness in their hearts.
Just like Yang Xiu at this moment, even if he is broken, he must make the person who insults the old grandfather pay the price.
The loud sound that echoed between heaven and earth was faintly heard by Shen Xingsoul and Li Shan, who were now hiding in the cave, and Li Shan, who was still sleeping, sat up all of a sudden.
It was like having a nightmare, but when I woke up, it turned out that the nightmare had just begun.
Li Shan's eyes were red, he and Yang Xiu's brothers for more than 20 years, they knew Yang Xiu's character, and they also knew that such a loud noise would only be like this if he blew himself up, and he struggled in his heart not to think that this was true, but his eyes were still moist.
"Brother Yang, go all the way!"
Li Shan covered his heart, as if he was seriously injured, and silently said goodbye to his brother in his heart.
Even if Shen Xingsoul was not deeply involved in the world, looking at Li Shan's expression, he also knew what that sound represented.
Facing the direction he had just fled, Shen Xingsoul knelt down, "Today's revenge, he will return it tenfold every day!!" At this moment, Shen Xingsoul did not cry, he had experienced too much today, he knew that he should grow up, and he should let the Shen family even if there is no grandfather, let others be in awe.
Trembling, Shen Xingsoul stood up and bowed to Li Shan.
"Uncle Li, you've worked hard, it's time for us to go!"
Seeing that there seemed to be something more in Shen Xingsoul's eyes, Li Shan didn't know whether this was a good thing or a bad thing.
was supported by Shen Xingsoul to stand up, and he could still clearly feel the pain in his back, but fortunately, the bleeding had stopped.
"Uncle Li, now the Purple Mansion must put us to death, go back to the Shen family along this road, I don't think it's you and me now, even if you are not injured, we will definitely die. ”
"The road ahead is long, I don't know how many people are still waiting for us, now your injuries and I can't change anything at all, and if we go any further, we will go to death, it is better for us to quietly retreat to Lin'an City and go home from other directions." ”
"They must not have thought that we were so bold, and when they reacted, we had already left Lin'an City, although it looked dangerous, but it was much safer than taking this road, Uncle Li, what do you think?"
Li Shan looked at Shen Xing Soul with a smile on his face, "Star Soul, I really didn't expect that you would suddenly become so calm at this time, I want to give you time, even if you don't have to make a move from your grandfather, you can destroy the Purple Mansion." ”
"You're right, this road is too dangerous now, and the safest one is Lin'an City. ”
"As long as we don't reveal our whereabouts, even if the Purple Mansion is a little suspicious, we don't have the ability to search the whole city, and until my injuries are a little better, we will take a detour home from other places. ”
"But it's impossible to return the same way, not to mention what the result is on Yang Xiu's side, how can you guarantee that Zifu will not send chasing soldiers, and now if you want to return to Lin'an, you can only take a detour to the mountain. ”
"There are many fierce beasts in the mountains, you and I must be extremely careful, once you encounter danger, I want you to survive, you are the hope of the Shen family in the future!"
"Uncle Li, I promise you, if it is really a matter of life and death, I will try my best to survive, and I will make the Shen family as before, and the whole world will be in awe!"
"Okay, then, while I can still ride a horse, let's go at once. ”
The two of them packed up the traces left behind and walked out of the cave in the direction of Lin'an City.
The snow fell overnight, covering the road, and the two walked cautiously on the mountain road, first, to beware of the sudden appearance of fierce beasts, but also to care about the road under their feet, and even more to be careful of the pursuers of the Purple Mansion.
So I walked very slowly, unlike last night, when I walked hundreds of miles in two or three hours, and now I am cautious, and I only walked more than a hundred miles of mountain roads in a full day.
In some places, you can't ride a horse at all, and you need to get down and walk, Shen Xingsoul can only support Li Shan, and the two of them move forward slowly.
This journey was windy and snowy, and there was no need to talk about the hardships during the period.
Fortunately, I didn't meet wild beasts along the way, and I didn't see the chasing soldiers of the Purple Mansion.
After a hard day, the two of them should have built a bonfire at night, but they were afraid of being discovered by others, so they could only find a place that was still sheltered from the wind, and the two took turns to sleep to avoid being attacked by wild beasts.
The night passed, fortunately, nothing happened, the two barely cheered up, and walked towards Lin'an City, the two did not bring any dry food, they had not eaten for a day and a night, and their stomachs were screaming.
Near ten o'clock in the evening, the two finally came to the vicinity of Lin'an City, found two beggars outside the city, took out the silver to buy their clothes, changed them, and painted flowers on their faces, so that they dared to go to the city.
Now dressed in this dress, it is naturally impossible to find an inn, only like a real beggar, find a place to shelter from the wind and barely sleep.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next day the mental state of the two of them was much better, Shen Xingsoul went to the pharmacy to help Li Shan retrieve some medicine for treating external injuries, and bandaged his wounds again.
Now the two are planning how to go back to the Shen family, Lin'an City extends in all directions, and the Shen family is in the south of Lin'an City, and now it is impossible to go back directly, only by detouring.
Choosing to choose, I still feel that it is safer to detour directly from the west, although there is a barren desert in the west, and the conditions are more difficult, but as long as he walks out of the desert, it is not too far away from his Shen family.
Second, there is a westward camel caravan in this Lin'an city every day, as long as you mix in it, it is much safer than going on the road alone.
And now Li Shan is injured, and the large camel team is accompanied by Lang Zhong, so that Li Shan's injuries can also be treated in time.
The two of them are combined, without further ado, although it is safe here for the time being, but after all, the Purple Mansion is entrenched here, and if you stay for a moment, there will be more danger.
At dawn the next day, the two dressed up as business travelers, found a caravan, and set off west a day later.
During this day, Shen Xingsoul prepared some dry food and water, as well as the medicine that Li Shan needed on weekdays.
It was not practical to decoct medicine in the desert, so at the request of Shen Xingsoul, they were all made into pills and carried with him for Li Shan to take.
For a trip to the desert, you must prepare enough drinking water, otherwise you will die of dehydration, even if you are traveling with a camel caravan, you must prepare yourself.
This night, the two of them found an inn, recuperated their spirits, and had to hurry the next day, Li Shan was injured, and rested early after dinner, and Shen Xingsoul looked at the deep night sky outside the window alone.
In just a few days, he experienced something he had never experienced before, Zifu repented of his marriage, Yang Xiu died, he was also panicked like a lost dog, hiding in Tibet, and when he heard the sound of horses' hooves in this Lin'an City, he was terrified, for fear that the people and horses of Zifu came for him.
Fortunately, he has been safe and sound in the past few days, and now he is about to leave this Lin'an City, I don't know when he will come back next time, and I don't know how he should give an explanation to Ziluan.
All of this overwhelmed him, and it also gave him a tenacity that he shouldn't have at this age.
The more you experience, the more you get, and the process is tragic, but no one has the ability to change the passage of time.
The night passed so quietly, and the next morning, the two of them left Lin'an City with the camel caravan and headed west.
