"Brother Guo, you should put me down. Those people are chasing me, not you, Brother Guo. Carrying me behind your back will only affect Brother Guo and your escape."

Ding Yi listened to the sound of chasing from behind and knew that it was only a matter of time before those people caught up with them. He could only hinder Brother Guo in his current state.

"Don't let go. I've been carrying you for so long. If I put you down now, I won't be carrying you in vain. Don't worry, I'm familiar with this road. Once you cross this mountain, you'll find Yong'an Village.

We have a place to stay in Wing On Village. "

Guo Nian was running quickly through the mountains and forests with Ding Yi on his back. His martial arts was superior to that of Ding Yi, so he naturally noticed that there were pursuers behind him before Ding Yi did.

As long as he runs faster than he is now, he can return to Yong'an Village before those people catch up with them.

Ding Yi couldn't move Guo Nian, so he could only stay on Guo Nian's back silently, praying in his heart that the pursuers would come slower.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, and the voices behind him were getting closer and closer, Ding Yi was extremely anxious.

"Brother Guo, please find a place to put me down. I can hide myself well. You can come look for me after the pursuers leave."

"No, we should arrive at Yong'an Village in a quarter of an hour."

The moment the pursuers caught up, Guo Nian happened to run into Yong'an Village. However, Guo Nian was familiar with the terrain of Yong'an Village and disappeared in front of the pursuers.

Guo Nian jumped into the rented yard and not long after putting Ding Yi on the bed, he heard a rapid knock on the door and a noise.

"You lie here while I go out and drive people away. If anyone comes in and asks you who you are, just say your name is Lynch and you are here to pick up some of my sister's children. Do you remember that?"

"I'll make a note, Brother Guo, be careful."

Guo Nian took off his bloody clothes and threw them into the tub. He picked up a coat and put it on before heading towards the door. When he opened the door, he saw that the person knocking on the door was Aunt Huang. People from the Huang family and others were also there. Standing at the door.

"Sister Huang, who are these people and what are they doing in the village at this time?"

When Old Mrs. Huang came to feed the Zheng family's cows and donkeys at noon, there was no one in the Zheng family. When did the Zheng family's little brother come? Could it be in the evening.

"Brother Zheng, when did you come back? You were not there when I came to feed the cows at noon."

"Then my aunt and I didn't collide. Lin Qi was injured while hunting, so I took him down the mountain. What are these people here for? They look like people from the government."

Guo Nian did not say the specific time, so as not to betray others. He only said that he and Mrs. Huang did not bump into each other.

"They said they were here to arrest someone, but what kind of murderer?"

"A murderer? Where did the murderer come from in our village? Isn't this a random act?"

"Who says it's not the case? We ordinary people can't say anything. We can only say what the officials say. Hey."

What people of Mrs. Huang's age dislike the most is any changes. If there is a murderer in their village, it will have a great impact on their village.

"If you go to this house and another house, search them all for me. You must find the person who escaped. Do you understand?"

The moment Gao Ren saw Guo Nian, he looked this man up and down. He felt that this man was not simple and did not look like an ordinary villager.

"Hit someone. There is a piece of bloody clothes here, and there is an unkempt man in the room with blood stains on his face."

Gao Ren listened to his men's words and looked at the bloody clothes on the ground, his suspicion of Guo Nian gradually deepened.

"Say, is that you?"

"Guardian, I don't understand what you are saying. The bloody clothes are because my uncle was injured when he went hunting in the mountains. The person that the officials found was also my uncle.

If the official doesn't believe it, you can ask the people in the village. We have been in the village for almost half a month, and everyone in Yong'an Village knows that we are hunters. "

Guo Nian did not lower his head to explain, nor did he look at Gao Ren, for fear of being noticed.

Gao Ren's suspicion of Guo Nian did not diminish, and he pointed at the soybeans aside.

"As you can tell, everything he said is true."

Huangdou was so frightened by Gao Ren's anger that he could hardly speak.

"Back to the official, Brother Nian is right. Their family is hunters and they often go hunting in the mountains."

The suspicion in Gao Ren's eyes was reduced by three points. He always felt that this man was not like a simple villager. There was no murderous aura in the villagers, he was just an Orion. Could it be that the murderous aura in him was because he was an Orion.

"Let's go and search the next house."

Gao Ren led people to the next house, his eyes never leaving Guo Nian.

Guo Nian could notice that Gao Ren's eyes were always on him, but he pretended that he didn't notice anything.

"Aunt Huang, if you have anything to eat at home, I'll buy some. I came down from the mountain in time and just missed the cooking time. Brother Qi and I are still hungry.

If your family has any ready-made food, we will deal with it. "

"It's a coincidence that you came here. I just made a few steamed buns at night. I originally saved them for breakfast tomorrow. Since it's Brother Nian, you want them.

I won’t keep any. As for the silver, it’s only three cents. What do you think? These are real steamed buns. Three cents or two is not expensive. "

Mrs. Huang is a nice person, but she is stingy and loves money. She would say this. Guo Nian had already expected it.

"It's not expensive. Our family asks you to buy food every time. The price Aunt Huang gives us every time is very fair. If it were unfair, our family wouldn't buy from you every time."

Aunt Huang, are you right? "

Guo Nian followed Aunt Huang into Huang's house, and then the scrutinizing gaze disappeared.

Guo Nian turned back and looked in the direction of his home, secretly annoyed that he was still so careless in doing things and why he forgot that Ding would be recognized by the pursuing soldiers.

Fortunately, Ding Yi was smart and knew how to cover up, otherwise they might not be able to escape this time.

"There are only five steamed buns left. If you give me eight cents, I'll get you a plate of pickles. These pickles are my specialty. I'll make sure you eat them once and want to eat them a second time."

Old Mrs. Huang was so shrewd in her calculations. If she could get a penny more, she would never lose a penny. Huang Dou beside her felt a little embarrassed because she was not thick-skinned.

"Then thank you Aunt Huang."

Guo Nian came back with the things he bought from the Huang family and immediately closed the door. When he came into the house, he saw Ding Yi with disheveled hair and gray face.

Guo Nian originally wanted to call Ding Yi, but for some reason he felt that he couldn't call him Ding Yi at this time.

"Brother Qi, these are the steamed buns bought by Mrs. Huang's family. You need to put some food on your stomach first, and I will cook them tomorrow morning."

Ding Yi couldn't figure out why Guo Nian didn't call his name, but called him Brother Qi. Could it be that Gao Ren hadn't left yet? Ding Yi's heart tightened when he thought of this.

After Guo Nian went out to open the door, he quickly grabbed the plaster on the ground and smeared his face. He came from the same place as those people, and someone would definitely recognize him.
