On the Difficulties of Escape in Ancient Times

Chapter 83 Escape

Jiang Yu was really shocked when he saw Xiao Xiu under the dim light.

After all, what he suspected the most was Lin Xuan, who rarely appeared. He never thought that it would be her?

After all, in his eyes, Miss Xiao is gentle and dignified. Why would she knock on his door in the middle of the night?

When Xiao Xiu saw him opening the door, he seemed to take two steps back. He stared blankly at himself without saying a word. She thought he was asleep, so she quickly said: "There are water bandits outside. Hurry up and pack your valuables. Wait." If there are too many of them, jump into the water."

She originally thought that Jiang Yu was a very shrewd person, but now seeing how stupid he was, she couldn't help but ask, "Do you know how to swim?"

When Jiang Yu heard her talking about water bandits, his heart tightened and he was already thinking about a way to escape.

After hearing her words, he immediately said: "I don't know how to swim."

"Then follow my Da Lang Erlang later and let them take you."

"Paddle is very simple, just hold your breath and push on the water."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left when she heard her parents coming out.

Jiang Yu had already put on his clothes and hurried back to take out his purse from under the pillow and stuff it into his arms before running out and following them downstairs.

It is now about the end of Haishi, the time when I am most sleepy and sleep soundly.

After they went down, they found two bodyguards on guard sleeping soundly next to each other with their arms folded across their chests. Jiang Yu was furious, but he could only hold it in. He stepped forward and patted their shoulders, signaling them to look outside.

The bodyguard panicked: "Oh my God, it's a water bandit. I'll call Mr. Song."

"We just took a nap." Another escort said weakly, and then hurriedly ran to call the brothers to get up.

The boatman also hurried over and said in a panic: "There are many people coming, let's run away first?"

After saying that, he turned around to run, but was caught by Boss Xiao.

Boss Xiao asked eagerly: "Can you tell me clearly, where is it safe to run? Are there any villages nearby?"

The boatman looked at the torches getting closer and closer in all directions, and his face turned pale with fright: "There is a reed field to the left, and I don't know anything else!"

When they stopped the boat, they also looked at the place.

Parking in a sheltered spot on the right, there are at least ten acres of reed fields on the opposite left.

They didn't dare to stop by the reed field, for fear that someone would sneak onto the boat through the reeds as tall as a person.

Who knew the water bandits were so rampant now, I am afraid they would have been targeted for a long time.

The boatman didn't have any martial arts skills, but he was good at water. After saying that, he ran away quickly and splashed into the water.

Then, there were several more sounds of water gushing into the water.

Boss Xiao was about to say something when he heard screams and a strange man yelling: "Brother, hurry up, they have discovered us and want to run away!"

Now that it has been discovered, laughter can be heard not far away: "Little ones, stop dawdling, hurry up and rush..."

Echoes came from all directions.

And the boatman who jumped off kept screaming.

Boss Xiao didn't think the escorts could stop this group of water bandits.

At this time, even if you are afraid, you still have to give it a try.

He pulled Ms. Liu and told everyone: "When you get into the water, swim to the left. No matter what sound you hear, don't look back."

"Dalang, Erlang, please protect your grandparents."

"Let's all meet at Wudun Pier."

After he finished speaking, he asked his second son to join him and smash the stools and tables on the side into the water on the right.

Because the right side is closer to the shore, if the boatman hadn't asked him, he would have chosen to run to the right. What he was betting on was that if there weren't many water bandits standing in front of him and they were lured over by silence, they could take the opportunity to break out from the left.

Xiao Xiao also picked up the bow and arrow and called to the eldest and second sisters: "Don't panic, let's cover the grandparents in the water first, then pick up the bow and arrow and shoot at the torch."

If the opponent is holding a torch, there must be someone next to the torch. If he can shoot the water bandit, he can also make the water bandit panic.

They definitely didn't know the exact number of people on their side, so they didn't dare to rush over.

Xiao Xiao shot the arrow, and as expected, screams and panicked shouts came from the opposite side: "Put out the torch, there are archers on the opposite side!"

She succeeded with one move, which actually boosted the morale of her sisters.

Xiao Xiu also aimed at the torch that had just gone out and shot an arrow, and heard screams again.

Xiao Lian took a sharp breath to stop her hand from shaking: "Thank you for reminding us to hold the bow and arrow."

After saying that, he also aimed at the other party's torch and shot it.

They only have five arrows each now, and they cannot take them back after they are shot.

The good news is that after the three sisters shot the arrows, the other party's torches were extinguished, and it was dark for an instant. No one could see anyone, making it easier to escape.

And Captain Song was also very dedicated, letting them run first and then stopping them.

But Xiao Xiao had dark thoughts in his heart, thinking that they were letting his family members go down to test the waters to see if there was any danger.

Old man Xiao and his wife jumped into the water first, then second brother Xiao and his family also jumped in. After that, old man Xiao took Mrs. Liu and jumped in.

After Xiao Xiao finished shooting the arrow, he put the bow on his back and pulled Lin Xuan along: "Let's go, eldest and second sisters, take Lin Long with you."

Hou Er also pulled Jiang Yu: "Master, don't worry, relax, I will protect you."

At this point, even if Jiang Yu was worried, he had no other choice but to jump down after him as if he was dead.

Xiao Xiu entered the water in front of the third sister. They were unlucky. When she felt someone swimming over from the opposite side, Xiao Xiao pushed Lin Xuan away, took out the dagger from her waist and stabbed him, trying to strike first.

She is also afraid, but between life and death, fear is useless, so she can only fight hard.

The other party was not careful and was stabbed in the arm by her. He surfaced and shouted angrily: "There is someone here who wants to run away!"

After saying that, he also drew the knife from his back and struck it.

Xiao Xiao sank into the water to avoid his attack.

Hou Er couldn't escape. Who made Jiang Yu a landlubber? Even if he cooperated and relaxed, his hands and feet fluttered uncontrollably and made too much noise. He was definitely a good target for attracting people.

He shouted in the direction where Xiao Xiao disappeared: "Leave it to me, you can help my young master."

Xiao Xiao had already swam far away and pretended that he didn't hear it.

She admitted that she was not kind enough to sacrifice herself for others.

Xiao Xiu, on the other hand, saw that her sister was in danger and did not dare to wander around, so she kept hiding on the edge.

She waited and waited, but before her sister came up, she realized that her sister had swam away.

She was originally ready to dive down and swim forward, but when she heard Hou Er's shout, she vaguely saw Jiang Yu flopping around desperately, and thought that Hou Er only faced the water bandits because of them.

After hesitating for a moment, he swam behind him: "I'll take you away, just relax!"

After saying that, she hugged his chest from behind, kicked her feet hard, and swam forward.

Hou Er just dealt with a water bandit and vaguely saw the young master being rescued. He also saw two other water bandits swimming over. He rushed over and scolded: "Little bastard, your grandpa is here! Where else do you want to go?" ?”

He shouted that on purpose.

Let them understand that even if they are cut off, they cannot leave their son alone.
