The history of the struggle of the God of the Stove

Chapter 469 Decent
There is no danger in the cave, and Qi Yuan had already helped Yingzheng and his mother to investigate before they entered.

However, this cave is extremely deep, and the depth of the cave is like a maze. Together with the ground, the source of the flowing stream is the water flowing from the underground river.

The mother and son explored carefully, and after finding that there was no danger, they hurried into the cave.

After entering, the two of them didn't care about their appearance, and just sat down on the ground.

After resting for a long while, I reluctantly got up, came to the side of the stream, washed in the cool stream water, and after drinking some sweet stream water, I was refreshed and regained a little physical strength.

However, although the stream water is sweet, it cannot satisfy the hunger in his stomach.

The boy looked into the stream, and found a few swimming fish. Unfortunately, after catching them several times in a row, not only failed to catch those fish, but scared them away.

"Mother, let's wait for the boy to go outside and pick some wild fruits later, and bring back some wild fruits for my mother to eat."

As the young Ying Zheng said, he was about to go out.

"do not……"

His mother, Zhao Ji, quickly grabbed her son's hand and said, "In such a dark night, there might be some poisonous insects and ferocious beasts lurking in the dark outside. You should not go out to take risks. Let's wait here for a while, soon." Those sent by your father will come and look for us."

Of course, a large part of the reason was that Zhao Ji did not dare to be alone in this dark cave.

After all, she is just a woman in her 20s. She is pampered and has not suffered much. After being chased and killed today, she was shocked and frightened. Even though her son is still young, she is the only one she can rely on now.

Ying Zheng felt the trembling of his mother's hand holding him tightly, and he didn't want to scare his mother anymore, so he nodded and stopped insisting.

The mother and son sat down next to a rock wall. After running for so long, their bodies were already exhausted. Even though they were still in danger at this time, they still couldn't resist the deep tiredness, and fell asleep cuddling each other .

Not long after they fell asleep, there was a faint sound in the distance, and a hundred people with torches chased them nearby.

Among them are experts who are good at tracking traces. Zhao Ji, mother and son have no experience in escaping in the wilderness and forests at all, so they inevitably left a lot of traces, so these people followed the traces and chased them up. .

"Are you sure you're not chasing in the wrong direction?"

asked the man with a cold voice.

He looked only in his 20s, and his appearance was very young, but there was a strong evil spirit between his eyebrows, and his eyes were fierce like a wolf, making people daunting.

The one next to him holding a halberd is a middle-aged strong man with a tall and powerful body, and he can tell at a glance that he is a good fighter on the battlefield.

Perhaps it was because of the darkness that these people no longer covered their faces.

The middle-aged man who was looking for traces in front quickly turned around and saluted them: "Reporting to the general, I can be sure that the mother and son escaped from this. They don't know how to cover up the traces, and the subordinates can easily find their traces." .

Moreover, it was already late at this time, and there were ferocious beasts rampant in the forest, so they didn't dare to run around, they should be nearby. "

"Ah."

The ruthless young general nodded, and ordered: "Then search around scatteredly, and be more careful. Whoever finds it first will be rewarded with a hundred gold."

"Here!"

Upon hearing such a great reward, all the soldiers immediately became excited.

Just finding the traces of the other party, without the need for them to go forward to fight and fight, can have so many rewards, this is really a good opportunity to make a fortune.

A group of soldiers dispersed, carefully looking around for traces of Zhao Ji's mother and son.

In a daze, Ying Zheng was suddenly awakened by the voices outside.

He jumped up, walked quickly to the entrance of the cave, hid behind a rock to cover his figure and looked out.

I saw shadows outside, and many people were looking around with torches in their hands.

Ying Zheng was startled, and then Huo Guang took a closer look, and found that it was the group of people who had attacked and besieged them during the day.

"There's a cave over there, go and have a look."

"Haha, if people are in this cave, our brother will get rich!"

This cave is not very hidden, it will be discovered soon, and someone has already walked over with a torch.

Ying Zheng hurried back in shock, shook his mother awake vigorously, and shouted in a low voice: "Mother, mother, wake up..."

"what happened?"

Zhao Ji opened her eyes in a daze, only to feel heavy eyelids and severe pain all over her body.

As a woman living in a deep house, she has never had the experience of fleeing, and her whole body was so tired all of a sudden.

"Mother, there are pursuers coming from outside, let's run away!"

"what?"

This time, Zhao Ji woke up instantly.

When she heard the shouts coming from outside and the movement getting closer, she was startled and confused.

Looking at the approaching flames outside, Zhao Ji felt desperate: "Zheng'er, they have already chased us, where can we escape?"

"Mother, let's go to the depths of the cave to avoid it. When we explored earlier, we only felt that it was deep inside, and there might be another way out."

Ying Zheng had a resolute temperament, and even at this time, he still did not give up the idea of ​​escaping.

He picked up his mother and walked quickly into the dark cave.

Although Zhao Ji was a little terrified at the depths of the cave where she couldn't see her fingers, she was more willing to try her luck with her son than to be tortured to death by the pursuers outside. Maybe she could find a way out.

However, Zhao Ji slowed down a little because her body was weak and her steps were weak. As a result, the soldiers outside saw the mother and son turning around the corner inside the cave.

The soldier who saw it first yelled in surprise: "I found out, they are here!"

As soon as these words came out, the people around who were searching immediately rushed over here, and some people who were not far from here even ran over quickly.

Although they were not the first to discover it, if they could catch it one step ahead, they would definitely be rewarded heavily.

What's more, I searched hard here in the middle of the night, so how can I go back and lie on the bed to sleep comfortably? Now that I have found the traces of the mother and child, I'd better get rid of them quickly and go back as soon as possible.

The cold young general and his lieutenant couldn't help but smile when they heard the words.

This matter is done in secret, even if there are some rumors from the outside world, it is impossible to confirm that they are responsible. After returning, the prince they are loyal to will definitely reward them heavily. future.

As long as there is status and status, will there be fewer beauties with money?
Both of these two people are highly skilled in martial arts. After hearing the movement, they quickly used their body skills, leaped several feet, and quickly ran towards the cave.

"You saw them run into the cave with your own eyes?"

The young general asked the soldier who yelled first.

"Yes, general. When the subordinates came over, they happened to see them running inside."

The soldier said: "But they don't have torches. The cave is dark and there is no light. They can't run very far."

"Ok!"

The young general nodded, his eyes swept sharply, and under the light of the fire, he saw a few footprints beside the stream, and nodded slightly.

However, he took another look at the dark cave leading to nowhere, and in the end he didn't go forward himself, but ordered: "Catch up, it's just two women and children who have no power to protect themselves, get rid of them as soon as possible!" , so we can get out of here as soon as possible.

After returning, everyone will record a meritorious service, and everyone will be rewarded! "

"Thank you General..."

A group of soldiers were overjoyed when they heard the words, but they still rushed to catch up one by one.

After all, there are more rewards for beheading the mother and child than for plopping.

After most of the subordinates entered, the young general and his lieutenant looked at each other, and followed the group of subordinates and walked inside.

Thinking about it, even if there is any danger in the cave, with these subordinates standing in front, they should be able to escape in time with their skills.

Inside the cave, it was pitch black. Ying Zheng supported Zhao Ji and groped for the wall to forcefully walk inside.

However, after they turned a corner again, they suddenly found a light coming from ahead.

The two were overjoyed, thinking it was an exit leading to another direction.

As a result, when they got close, they realized that it was not the exit that emitted the light, but a lake about the size of an acre. There were many luminous fish swimming in the water, and many crystal clear lights above the cave were illuminated. The stalactites shone beautifully.

It's just that the two of them are running for their lives at this time, so they don't have the heart to watch this rare spectacle.

One of the mother and son is a frail woman and the other is an underage child. Neither of them can run very fast, so before they reach the other side of the small lake, they are already chased by the pursuers from behind.

"Hahaha, caught up."

"Hurry up, surround them, don't let them run away!"

These soldiers rushed forward joyfully, besieging the mother and son by the lake, waiting for the general to send him off.

Illuminated by the torches in their hands, the stalactites above the cave suddenly looked more colorful and charming.

The young general who came in behind squinted his eyes and looked at the stalactites above in surprise, but he didn't expect to see such a beautiful scenery here.

However, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, it is not as important as his future.

"Run!"

A sneer appeared on the corner of the young general's mouth: "Aren't you pretty good at running, keep running?"

They should have been dealt with a long time ago and they went back to receive the reward. As a result, the mother and son were quite able to run, but they ran all the way here before being blocked by them. The young man was also full of anger.

Although Ying Zheng is young, he is responsible. He protects his mother with his small body, and waits fiercely for the young general in front of him with his lips pursed.

"Humph……"

The young general glanced at Ying Zheng contemptuously. Without enough strength, it is useless to be ruthless.

He pulled out the long sword from his waist, tossed it lightly, and inserted it in front of Ying Zheng and the other two, and said lightly: "Looking at your identities, I will give you a decent way of death, otherwise if you let If the brothers under my command do something, I'm afraid something you don't want to see will happen."
