Su Xian under the moon of Douluo

The next day, on the way to Pest City.

Clouds cover the sky, a breeze blows, and the chirping of insects comes from the bushes beside the road from time to time.

Two short figures walked alone on the road.They chose the old road. Different from the new road, although the distance of this old road is short after all, the road is not good. There are many potholes along the way. Generally, caravans will not take this road, but people with a slightly better family will go there. Horse-drawn carriages will not take this route either.

If it weren't for the fact that the villagers along the way needed to travel to two places, this road would have been overgrown with weeds.

The two of them had walked halfway and still hadn't met anyone traveling more than a mile.

The child walking in front is slightly shorter. The first impression given by his young age is that he is cute, but he cannot tell whether he is male or female.

He has silver-gray shawl broken hair, clear and bright eyes of the same color, and a delicate and soft white face, but there is a hint of heaviness from time to time. The blue shirt and trousers of the same color also look a bit dirty, and his gray shoes are also stained. Full of dust.

He also gives people a contradictory feeling.

This feeling is because he is a little busy on the road, but who is a child of this age who is not acting coquettishly and cutely in the arms of his parents?

From time to time, he looked back slightly and observed, as if something was following behind him.

Behind him was a little girl with long brown hair. Her originally moon-white skirt had been dyed light yellow by the dust, and her brown shoes had not changed much.

She was holding half a bag of food in her hand, her mouth was open, her tongue was slightly sticking out, her eyelids were drooping listlessly, and her lips were dry and dull, looking like she had lost too much water.

Finally, she couldn't stand it anymore:

"Ahhh~ I'm almost dying of thirst. If I don't drink water, I won't wait until Carlo comes to catch me."

After saying that, he frowned and looked at the little man in front of him with pitiful eyes: "Sister Su Xian, think of a way~"

Mi Tao added in her heart that she had no conscience, she was definitely not relying on the sister in front of her, it was just that she had more methods.

Yes, that's it, she was sure in her heart.

After thinking about this, he couldn't help but look at Su Xian expectantly.

Su Xian stopped, took out the old map from his pocket, made some gestures with his hands, thought for a moment and said:

"Don't panic. After climbing over the mountain ahead, you can see a small river. Let's take a rest there then. Prepare some bugs."

"Great! Finally we have water to drink." Mi Tao said happily, and suddenly her face wrinkled, "Oh, it's a pity that we don't have a kettle. If we get thirsty later, we can only find the river."

Su Xian shook his head and smiled when he heard this: "This can still be solved."

"Oh? What should I do?"

"Just cut off a section of bamboo."

"Oh, it can still be like this. Why didn't I think of it? Let's go there quickly."

Su Xian glanced back slightly and followed.

After a while, the two of them finished drinking water, and the two of them sitting on the big stone by the river couldn't help but talk about escaping.

First, Mi Tao said with a longing face:

"At our rate, it might only take four or five days to reach Pest City. When we get to Pest City, I'll treat you to a big dinner. I'll also ask my dad to help you find your parents."

Su Xian looked at her innocent look and was silent for a moment. I don't know whether it was because of her excellent performance or because she was on her way home. Mi Tao seemed a little... too confident?

He had to bite the bullet:

"Things are not that simple. Even though we have walked about a hundred miles, we must know that this is just the beginning, and we will become slower and slower due to fatigue. Moreover, you have also ignored one factor.

"That is the soul master who is chasing us. Our traces in Russell City can't be concealed for long. They will notice it in a day, or even only half a day. Maybe they are already on the way to hunt us now.

"And Carlo is a Soul King. Even though he may not be good at speed, but being hunted by a Soul King, how much hope do we have of escaping from his grasp?"

The atmosphere suddenly became stiff, and Peach's smile froze. This girl was like a popped balloon. She liked to pretend to be strong, but in fact she was very fragile.

Su Xian's words were like the needle that punctured her illusion of a smooth escape, forcing her to return to reality and face the upcoming dilemma.

The smile on her little face slowly disappeared and became a little dull. She slowly turned her body away from Su Xian and buried her head. Soon, her narrow shoulders twitched slightly and she heard inaudible sobs.

Along the way, she subconsciously didn't think about whether she would be tracked and caught. But now this matter was revealed by Su Xian just now.

It has become something that must be faced.

Su Xian sighed. How could she not know that this situation would be difficult for her to face?

It's just that compared to the hysterical despair when things don't go your way, it might be better to stay calm at this time.

He walked slowly to her and lifted her shoulders.

Seeing her eyes red, with tears in her eyes, she sobbed:

"Actually... I know, I know everything. But can we really run away?"

"No matter how slim the hope is, you should try. No matter how dangerous it is, you must keep going." Su Xian shook his head in denial and added in his mind:

But he might die by then.

He didn't say this, after all, Mi Tao's mentality was already very bad.

She had a sad look on her face: "If I catch up with you then, you can leave first. Only when Yue Dian is here, can you put me down and you will be more confident of escaping."

Su Xian glanced at her and nodded silently.

Russell City, Dahun Hotel, Room 3021.

At this time, the atmosphere in the room was tense, with four people standing in the room.The person in front was wearing a black robe, with a long-brimmed hood covering his facial features.

Six feet tall, with a straight but thin figure, the only thing that can be seen is his skinny palm, with a layer of tight skin sticking to his finger bones.

It makes people worry whether he will be blown away by the sudden wind while walking on the street.He didn't speak at this time, just stood quietly.

But for such a thin figure, the three people standing in front of him felt extremely terrible pressure.

Moore, standing on the left, has his left hand wrapped in a bandage and tied around his neck, and his right hand is wrapped with a bandage and leaning on a cane.His left arm and right leg were broken by an unknown man, and even his face was covered with plaster. He is currently very weak.

Carlo stood in the middle, not daring to raise his head and could only let it hang low.

The one on the right is Gou Gan. He has a bulging belly and looks like he is watching a good show.When he came, he felt that it had nothing to do with him and that the person was lost in Carlo's hands.

As long as my brother-in-law is not exposed, what does this matter have to do with me?Even the chief deacon has to talk about evidence...right?

Suddenly, the man in black robe glanced at the three people in front of him.

Moore noticed his cold eyes, his legs trembled, and he fell to the ground.Moore's face was squirming in fear, and his face mixed with green and red ointment looked extremely frightened. However, now that his hands and feet were inconvenient, his squirming was to no avail.

Carlo lowered his head.

Gou Gan couldn't help but feel guilty and his eyes drooped slightly.

"Hmph, trash!" The man in black robe snorted coldly. His voice was hoarse, like a broken bellows, with a biting coldness.

"This matter is not my business, but since we happened to meet each other, I will say a few words..."
