Jinyi Night Walk

"what!

With a scream, another inspector fell to the ground. His right knee was stomped heavily by Xia Xun, and his whole leg was thrown out strangely. It was obvious that the leg bone had been broken.Along the way, Xia Xun's attacks became more and more ruthless, concise and clear, and focused on the vital points.

The inspector was sweating profusely, staring at his running back with difficulty, gritted his teeth at a few helpers who were hesitant and at a loss: "Follow me!"

"Why...don't kill them?"

Ming'er took Xia Xun's big hand, and while running with him, panted heavily, trying to take the fresh air into her lungs.

"What's the benefit of killing!"

There was a weird smile on Xia Xun's face, which was the usual smile of desperadoes who were in desperate situations: "Keep them alive, and if there are any pursuers, we will take part of them to take care of them, which will weaken their strength." .If the pursuers want to take them with them, they will slow down their speed; the pursuers will see that they are half-dead and permanently disabled, and they will have the effect of intimidating the enemy."

While talking, the figures of the two had disappeared deep in the dense forest.In the past few days, the two of them were rushing from left to right near Nanjing, back and forth, and the pursuers were led to run around like chickens without their heads, each of them exhausted.

Xia Xun and Ming'er have arrived in Lishui smoothly, but the reception point here has been wiped out by the government. It is estimated that someone fell into the hands of the court, and they were tortured but confessed the location.Xia Xun had no choice but to take Ming'er to the west, heading straight for Hezhou, but was discovered halfway. After Fu Xun killed a few people, he repeated his old trick and went north again to bypass Jinling City and head straight for Yanziji.

It never occurred to Jin Yiwei that he would repeat the old trick and walk again after he made a sound of the east and the west.So, after they set up traps and ambushes in the three directions of west, south, and east, after tossing wildly, the news came that the target was found again on the bank of the Yangtze River.So the brigade headed towards the Yangtze River again, and when they sealed off the Yangtze River, Xia Xun had already appeared in Ma'anshan. As a result, the dispirited Jinyiwei and patrol officers rushed towards Ma'anshan again...

In Jinyiwei's yamen, Luo Kedi was pacing and listening to the news from his subordinates. In his feeling, Xia Xun didn't seem to have a precise target at all. He was just struggling to escape wherever he could. The most troublesome thing It is this kind of fugitive, he has no purpose at all, but is running around, it is difficult to concentrate his efforts on arresting him.

In particular, the rewards offered by the court and the punishment of consecutive sittings played a role. If there is any trouble, the people will rush to the yamen to report. Running around, but without exception, it is all fake news.If it is false news, it is not entirely false. There are indeed many fugitives from the government who committed crimes.

The guards in Jinyi were also idle, and they simply put them all in the prison, which made Mr. Yin Wang of Yingtian Mansion very happy. Under his rule, the rate of solving crimes has skyrocketed.

Xiao Qianyue calmly reported to Luo Kedi: "My lord, judging from the situation we have now, after their support point was destroyed, Yang Xu no longer had a planned destination. He was just trying to get rid of our pursuit. The target. The only thing we can be sure of now is..., he is getting farther and farther away from Jinling, and the scope of his activities is getting wider and wider, and our strength is no longer able to block all roads."

Xiao Qianyue had just returned from Shandong, and with this powerful help, Luo Kedi finally breathed a sigh of relief, and didn't need to personally deal with those true, false, and strange news.

"No, he always had a goal!"

Being able to get away from trivial matters, Luo Kedi's mind became clearer: "His goal is the north. He wants to find King Yan. The reason why he went south was because he knew that we knew his purpose very well, so He did the opposite."

Just as Luo Kedi said this, a person ran into the hall outside the hall and hurriedly reported: "My lord, Yang Xu was found at the foot of Lushan Mountain!" "

Liu Juejue, who had been sitting silently next to him, was the first to react, rushed to him, and asked: "9 was caught, the man reported: "It was only two inspectors who found him, with a The team's idle thugs, not his opponents, were injured and maimed by him, and when the nearby search team heard the ridicule and rushed away, he had already fled. "

Liu Juejue secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to look at Luo Kedi, who asked, "Where did they escape?"

The man said: "The inspector who was injured said that they saw Yang Xu walking eastward. It seems that he is going to bypass Lushan Mountain and go to Maoshan Mountain."

Luo Kedi Qu Ran said: "He wants to take the sea route! The land route to the north is impassable, so he is going to take the sea route. The last time King Yan's son got out of trouble, he also took the sea route. He has a way to get a sea ship! Pass the order!"

Luo Kedi only said two words, and his voice stopped abruptly. Xiao Qianyue and Liu Juejue looked at him in surprise. Luo Kedi was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled treacherously, and slowly shook his head: "No, no no No, no, no"..."

He gritted his teeth, and said with a deep smile: "In the past few days, he has played tricks on the east and west, and the guide on the north, but he played us very well. Under the heavy siege, he was able to stay calm, brave and resourceful, and now he is running farther and farther away. , he became flustered instead, asking our people to see his whereabouts? Humph!"

Xiao Qianyue hesitated and said: "My lord is saying..."

Luo Kedi asked: "If you want to go north, which one is the shortcut and which one is the most difficult?"

Xiao Qianyue hesitated and said: "Of course it is the fastest way to go north directly across the Yangtze River, but we have also thought of this road. There are many barriers along the way, and it is not easy for him to pass. The second way is to go east and go out to sea. , For those who have no connections, this is a dead end, but for Yang Xu, once he escapes to the seaside, he is tantamount to escaping from birth.

The third road also goes through the Yangtze River, but it goes west, crosses the Yangtze River through Taiping Mansion, enters Huguang and Henan, and passes through more checkpoints along the way, but the inspection there may not be so strict.Even if he goes south, he still has to take these three roads in the end, either north, east, or west. If the north is not feasible, go east... Sichuan should indeed be the most suitable road for him. "

Luo Kedi smiled and said: "Yes, you think the same way, that's right. Yang Xu has a good reason to go east, and he deliberately let our people see him go east, so naturally we should go east chase, huh?"

"On purpose?" Xiao Qianyue hesitated.

Luo Kedi raised his eyebrows, and smiled calmly: "All the checkpoints in the north are still under strict guard. Most of the outposts have been recruited, and all of them have been moved to Taiping Mansion to guard all the traffic arteries in and out of Huguang."

Xiao Qianyue said: "Yes, humble job please order to go there... Six "No!Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case! "

Luo Kedi cut off his mouth and said: "Going east, I'm afraid it's him who set up a suspicious position, but you can't help but guard against him going east, you lead people to chase east, and I personally rushed to Taiping Mansion to preside over the overall situation!"

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

"Let's rest here until the evening before going on the road."

At the foot of Maoshan Mountain, in a mountain nest, Xia Xun collapsed under a tree exhaustedly.

He is not a man of iron, dragging the government people around these few days, the government people are about to be tortured crazy, and he is about to be exhausted.Although Ming'er just ran along the way, there was no need to shout and kill, her delicate little feet were also blistered, and she burst into tears when she walked.After a few days, although there were no fatal wounds on Xia Xun's body, there were still many scars. Some of the wounds were stabbed with sharp weapons, and some of the bruises and bruises were hit with blunt objects.

Xia Xun breathed a long sigh of relief, then sat on the tree with his legs spread out, and said: "We are getting farther and farther away from Jinling now, and the farther we are, the less they will have enough manpower to control them. We will be safer too. When it gets dark, we will cross Maoshan Mountain. Once we enter Zhenjiang Mansion, our guides will be able to work, and the chance of escape will be even greater."

His eyes flickered for a moment, and he smiled slightly: "If he was a fool, he might still chase him down, but "...Luo Qianshi is a smart man, and a very smart man. , Now take a cold shot and hit the east with 6 hits "... Hey, he may not chase east."

"Is your injury...is it important?" Xu Ming'er looked at the blood on Xia Xun's body and asked worriedly.

Xia Xun grinned: "It's okay, I can hold on."

"I..." I'll bandage you up. "

Xia Xun looked at his dirty and tattered clothes like a beggar, and said with a wry smile, "What kind of dressing are you using? There is only one set of clothes left in the bag, and I will need them after I pass Maoshan."

"That can't be done, the body is dirty, if the wound is rotten and suppurated, it will be broken, at least... it needs to be cleaned."

Of course, Xia Xun knew the common sense of wound infection, especially in this day and age, once the wound was infected, there was no anti-moxibustion medicine or antibiotics to use, even if a wound was hit with a thumb, there was a danger of death after infection. He had no choice but to Obediently got up, walked to the nearby stream, and sat down on a smooth stone by the edge of the desert.

Xu Ming'er squatted beside him, gently rolled up his trouser legs, there was some dried blood flowing down his calf, and further up, the trousers and the wound were stuck together, and Xia Xun felt pain when he tore it lightly I had to take a deep breath, seeing the bloody wound.And a big bruised and swollen piece next to it, Xu Ming'er was about to shed tears when she flattened her mouth, she hurriedly turned her head away, first splashed two handfuls of river water on her face, and then gave him clean water with her small hands Wash the wound.

Thighs, arms, waist, back..." Green, purple, bloody... There are not many good parts of the body, Xu Ming'er's nose is sour, and tears finally fall down.

"It's my fault!"

Xu Ming'er said with tears in her eyes: "I am a burden, if not for my burden, maybe you would have escaped long ago."

"Don't be silly, I know, you don't want to go back to that impersonal home. Since the beginning of the Beiping Mansion, I have helped you, and you have helped me. The fate between you and me is not today. I will protect you and escape together, don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one will hurt you!"

Xia Xun turned her head to see her dazed look, and comforted her softly.After Ming'er heard his words, her eyes became bright, and there was an unspeakable brilliance in her pupils, which was quietly rippling.

Xia Xun got down again, put her chin on her arms, and said with a smile, "Okay, don't cry, let me tell you a joke."

"Oh!"

"By the way, there is a girl whose surname is Zhu. Because her family lives on the edge of the Great Wall, she was named Zhu Great Wall... Chuan, "How can there be a girl with such a name? "

"Hey, ordinary people, what's their name like a flower, a grass, a cat, or a dog? Tell a story, don't interrupt."

"oh……"……"

"This girl named Zhu Changcheng grew up gradually. Once, her father took her to the market, and happened to meet an old Pengfa who hadn't seen him for many years. The old Pengfa had already married and started a business. There was a girl who was similar to that girl. The eldest son. The girl’s father introduced two people to each other. When he mentioned that his daughter’s name was Changcheng, the young man suddenly remembered a common saying and joked: “If you don’t go to the Great Wall, you are not a good man, haha, haha, hahaha..., uh... ..."

Xu Ming'er opened a pair of innocent big eyes, like a cute little bird, tilting her head to stare at him, Xia Xun's hearty laughter finally turned into a mockery, indeed, this joke is not very suitable Let the girls hear, this is the daughter of the Duke's family...

Xia Xun was regretting, Xu Ming'er blinked and asked curiously, "What happened next?"

"later?"

Xia Xun was a little dazed: "There is no later."

"Oh!"

Xu Ming'er thought for a while, then said in doubt: "Didn't you say you were going to tell a joke, how could it be funny?"

Xia Xun: "Just Chuanchuan"

The understanding Ming'er saw his embarrassment, and quickly comforted him: "Actually, Chuan..., it's actually quite funny, I'm starting to find it funny now, hehe, hehe Chuan..., the corners of Xia Xun's mouth twitched a few times, He hurriedly coughed and said: "Okay, look at your dirty little face, you should wash it off too, I'll go around the neighborhood and bring back some wild fruits, if I can catch a pheasant or a rabbit or something Well, after eating, we have the strength to go on the road. "As he said, he got up and walked away in a daze.

Xu Ming'er glanced at his back, and whispered innocently: "The joke you told is really not funny, how can you make people laugh... It was getting dark, Xia Xun didn't hunt any pheasants and hares, only a few dozen A mountain fruit, and seven or eight bird eggs, the two casually settled for a meal, and then quietly embarked on the journey.

This mountain is not difficult to walk, and there are no wild animals on the mountain.The vicinity of Jiangning Mansion is where the imperial capital is located, with a large population and cities everywhere. Maoshan Mountain has been a Taoist holy place since ancient times. Tourists are constantly coming in all seasons, which makes the wild animals disappear and many roads have been stepped on.Xia Xun has been walking day and night for the past few days. Although the road is dark at night, he can vaguely see the path of pedestrians, so it is not difficult to walk.

The rest time for the two of them was still short, and their physical strength had not yet recovered, but when they thought that they would enter Zhenjiang Mansion after crossing Maoshan Mountain, and the hope of escape was a little higher, Xia Xun became excited and walked up the mountain road without feeling tired.

He was walking when Xu Ming'er next to him suddenly called out, "Ah, Xia Xun was like a rabbit that had been shot by an arrow. He fell down and looked around. Xu Ming'er was still standing there. Xia Xun Quickly pulled her down, pressed her beside him, glanced around vigilantly, and asked in a low voice: "What did you find? "

Xu Ming'er said blankly, "I didn't find anything, what did you find?"

"Me? Me neither..."

Xia Xun suddenly stared and said, "I didn't find anything, what's your name?"

Xu Ming'er narrowed her big wise eyes slightly: "Hmph! I figured it out!"

"Ok?"

"You are shameless!"

"what?"

"You tell such nasty jokes!"

"..."! ~!
