On the Difficulties of Escape in Ancient Times

Seeing that he seemed to have not run away from home, Xiao Xiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "My father is in the city, can you tell me if you have anything?"

She felt that the most likely reason for Li Yan to find his own father was to ask someone to send a message to his subordinates to pick him up.

Then she wouldn't mind asking her eldest brother to help run errands, and building a good relationship with him, so that she might be able to beg someone for help at some point.

"My horse is left in the village outside, tied to the willow tree by the pond. I'm afraid the horse will be too conspicuous there, so I want you to help untie it and drive the horse away."

Now that he is like this, he doesn't dare to leave on horseback. He is simply a living target.

When Xiao Xiao heard this, he sighed: "That's really a bit troublesome. The target is too big during the day, so wait until dark before going."

Then he comforted him: "It might have been stolen by someone a long time ago. That would save trouble."

She glanced at him again and asked with concern: "Are you injured? How about I ask my eldest brother to come in and give you some medicine? Or should I go get you some medicine?"

He wore a blue suit with arrow sleeves and sat there calmly, as calmly as if this was his room.

But Xiao Xiao could still smell the blood on his body.

Also, his face was unusually red, but it didn't look like he had taken any random medicine, so he must have had a high fever.

Li Yan was indeed feeling uncomfortable, but he was too embarrassed to let the little girl apply medicine for him. When he heard her words, his eyes moved: "How did you know I was injured?"

Xiao Xiao rolled his eyes: "The smell of blood is so strong in the closed room. My nose is not a decoration. How can I not smell it?"

Li Yan smiled: "Then I'll trouble you."

He asked one more question: "Who is in your family? I want to stay here for a few days, so that no one can notice, so as not to bring disaster to your family."

He said such terrifying words, but his tone was very natural, which made Xiao Xiao's eyes widen in shock: "You, are you trying to scare me?"

He said it so straightforwardly, weren't you afraid that you would kick him out? "

Li Yan saw that there was only surprise in her eyes, but no panic or fear, and she felt relieved: "I didn't scare you, they must think that we are in the same group, so how can we not eradicate it?"

Xiao Xiao took a deep breath and understood that what he said was true.

The risk of rescuing him is too great, so it can't be in vain.

Therefore, she spoke righteously: "Don't worry, sir, you saved me before. No matter how dangerous it is, we will not hand you over."

Although she had thought about it this way, and if an enemy really came to visit, all she could do was hide herself.

But he must know that he is risking his life to take him in and save him. If the Xiao family comes to ask for something in the future, he cannot push back.

Li Yan really didn't expect how dark this little girl's heart was. He thought he had really met someone who would repay his kindness. His heart warmed up and he looked at her more pleasantly: "Thank you very much."

"This is what we should do." Xiao Xiu said with a sincere face: "Sir, please rest first, I will let the elder brother come in."

Take advantage of this time to get closer to him, be more expressive in your language, and be more conservative in your actions.

She went out to find Xiao Dalang, told him the matter, and then asked him to go inside to change his dressing.

Fortunately, the small charcoal stove kept burning and a charcoal basin was burned. There was no shortage of hot water and it wasn't too cold.

Xiao Dalang worked in the house for half an hour before he came out with a pale face and whispered to Xiao Xiao, who was making porridge in the kitchen: "It's an arrow wound. The left shoulder is dripping with blood and he has a high fever. I have to buy it for him again." medicine."

Anyway, the turned-up flesh was shocking to look at, and the cloth that was originally wrapped was stained with blood, which made him, who had never seen blood, feel frightened.

"You can't go to Houzhai Village to buy it," Xiao Xiao stopped him: "You have forgotten that someone is chasing him and they know that he is injured. The person chasing him will definitely not let go of the medical center and pharmacy." Xiao Dalang also replied. Overwhelmed: "Thank you for reminding me."

Then he saw the heavy snowfall, and he was a little embarrassed: "He is like this, and someone has to guard him at night. How about you go back, ask Mr. Jiang to prepare some medicine, and ask your grandfather to send the medicine later?"

It would be dangerous to stay, and he definitely couldn't let his sister stay.

But it was snowing so heavily outside, so my sister was forced to drive back alone. Needless to say, it was cold. She was even more worried about slipping in icy places, and was also worried that the heavy snow would cover some ditches and bumps, which would cause the wheels to get stuck, which would be very troublesome.

In this kind of weather, I'm afraid there won't be many people on the road and I won't be able to find anyone to help.

Xiao Xiao hesitated for a moment: "Brother, you are more familiar with this road condition than I am, so why don't you go back?"

"It won't be too early by the time you go back. It's better to come back tomorrow morning."

“There’s food and drink here, so you don’t have to worry.”

Xiao Dalang whispered: "But I'm afraid someone will come looking for me."

"It's okay, I will fool you." Xiao Xiao didn't take it seriously: "The back house is such a big place, it's enough for them to find."

Then he looked at the heavy snow outside and sighed: "When I go out in this weather, I'm afraid that my car will be driven into the pond. I have to help you, big brother."

Xiao Dalang couldn't deny that what she said made sense. Xu Fu's family just killed a pig earlier, so he went to buy some pork.

The eldest son of the Xu Fu family was asked to work in the Xiao family restaurant. The Xu Fu family naturally fawned over the Xiao family. In addition to accepting a knife of pork, a hen and five coins of eggs, they also gave a lot of vegetables and radishes. .

Xiao Dalang's excuse was that Xiao Xiao had a cold, and he was afraid that his sister would pass the cold to the pregnant Liu, so he came back to his hometown to stay for a few days.

The current cold wind is also making people change their mood.

In this way, neighbors will not come to visit.

Finally, Xiao Dalang packed up the chickens and saw that it was getting late. After giving many instructions, he turned around and left.

Xiao Xiao waited for his mule cart to leave, then quickly closed the courtyard door and returned to the kitchen.

Fortunately, they used their hometown as a retreat. They not only stocked up on grains, rice and noodles, but also bought oil, salt, sauce and vinegar so that they could live there when they came back, ensuring that they would not be lacking anything.

Even the quilt was not prepared, it was made of straw, and there was only an old quilt for the quilt.

This was something Xiao Dalang brought back specially as a precaution.

But fortunately, in the carriage of the unknown but timid adult, there were not only thick new quilts, but also fresh apples, oranges and bananas, as well as dried longans, dried red dates, tea leaves and the like.

And a thick mink fur cape with blue eight-treasure pattern and dark pattern.

Xiao Xiao didn't dislike the ones that others had used, so he decided to build this one that night.

When I thought about today's income, I was even more excited and wanted to cheer. I originally thought that I was still far away from buying food, but I didn't expect that such a robbery would be achieved.

No, they were not robbing, they were trying to get rid of Sheng Qianhu.

If Sheng Qianhu is overthrown later, I wonder if they can drink some soup along with them.

After getting excited, she smelled the aroma of chicken soup and thought of a patient lying next door. She calmed down her excitement, filled a bowl of chicken soup, and tasted it first: "It tastes pretty good, and my cooking skills are not bad either." Well?"
