Iron Bull Legend

Chapter 172 Midnight Chase

"Do you still wear makeup?"

"Haha, I have learned a little bit. It was taught by a thief friend of mine."

"Giggle, do you still have thief friends?"

"He is also a poor man. In order to survive, he had to steal things to feed his grandmother who fell ill from hunger. We met by chance."

"Oh, come on."

The two of them kept walking forward and climbed over several mountains. The sun had already set and they found a secluded place to settle down.

"Don't move here, I'll hunt some wild animals, otherwise we will starve."

"Go back quickly, I'm a little scared."

"It's okay, it'll be fine soon," Tieniu said and disappeared into the dense forest. When he came back, he was carrying a goat weighing more than [-] kilograms.

"Tieniu, how did you catch him?"

"The big ones run fast, so if we only catch this small one, it's enough for us to eat." Tieniu said, with a dagger in his hand, he neatly packed the goat and took out salt and other seasonings from his backpack.

I lit the dry wood picked up by Kurisa, and after the wood burned out, he put the goat on the charcoal fire and roasted it continuously. As the fat on the goat dripped on the charcoal fire, a smell of meat spread into the two people. Their noses and stomachs made hungry protests.

In about an hour, the roasted goat, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, appeared in front of the two of them. Tieniu spread the broad leaves he had collected on the ground, sliced ​​off the lamb with a dagger, and ate it with salt and seasonings.

"Son, who taught you your skills?" Kurisha's mouth was full of oil, and she couldn't help but ask after swallowing the next mouthful of tender mutton.

"My grandpa, we often go to the mountains to collect mountain products and sell them for money. There is no food in the mountains, so we can only trap hares, pheasants and other wild animals and roast them."

"This is my first time eating such delicious food. It's so delicious."

"Then eat more. Tomorrow, I will catch hares for you and make braised rabbit meat for you. It will be more delicious."

"Great, I can eat a hare tomorrow, geez."

"Two are fine, as long as you can eat them, haha."

After dinner, the two of them lay leaning on each other in a sheltered place paved with dry leaves. After being hunted for a day, Kurisha was already exhausted, not to mention that after eating and drinking enough, she slept more. After a while, she fell into a deep sleep. I went to fall in love with Duke Zhou's eldest son.

Tieniu closed his eyes, but he was not sleepy at all. He was thinking about what Kurisha said during the day. Her sworn brother should also rush here now. After all, the traces of Kurisha have been discovered. Once Kurisa is let If Risa rushes back to the family, what he has done will be exposed. The old family leader is still alive, can he let him go?

The road in the future may be more difficult, and the people being hunted will be more urgent. It would be okay if she was alone. However, Kurisa is just an ordinary person with a passable physique. Thinking of this, Tieniu couldn't help but let out a long sigh. Even more helpless.

He doesn't know what he will face tomorrow, he can only face it with all his heart. After all, no one can know unknown things, so he can only take things as they come.

In the valley, the occasional night owl crows, indicating that he is the king of the night. However, the cricket not far from Tieniu is chirping happily, looking for its favorite mate, and is showing love to its beloved, chirping even louder. Cheerful.

The breeze at night blew the branches, making a soft rustling sound. Tieniu unknowingly fell into a light sleep. Kurisha turned over and straddled him with a thigh. Her slight snoring was still there. Tieniu paid no attention to it because, At home, his aunt Miaomiao was like this too, and he gradually got used to it.

Time passed by slowly like running water, and it was already midnight. Tienniu was awakened by a few whispers not far away, and hurriedly pushed Kurisha awake and covered its mouth.

"Someone is following, we may have to run away."

"where is it?"

"Over there, I just heard voices."

"Don't they sleep? It's so late at night."

"Haha, this explains the problem. Your sworn brother is in a very urgent mood."

"Son of a bitch, bastard..."

"Okay, save it. No matter how much you scold it, it won't kill it. It's better to think about how we can escape. Now our traces will be discovered soon, and we will be in trouble at dawn."

"If there's any trouble, just run away."

"Haha, didn't you notice? We have been running for a day, and there are already traces of people chasing us here. This shows that their manpower has increased."

"Oh, that's right. Then why don't I feel any nervousness from you?"

"It's just a little bit of trash. It can't hurt me. It's just that I feel like I'm being chased all the time. It's annoying."

"I knew my son was powerful. By the way, wouldn't you be able to change his appearance?"

"Haha, but I have nothing now, how can I change it?"

"That's right, then what should we do now?"

"Run away, hurry up and get out of their pursuit range."

The two people quietly slipped to the other side of the woods. Before they had gone two or three hundred meters, they heard someone shouting in front of them: "Who is it?"

"No, I was discovered." Kurisha tugged on Tieniu's lapel.

"Haha, then run." After Tieniu said that, he picked up Kurisa and ran quickly, with many people shouting loudly behind him.

Tieniu sped up his running speed, and his figure kept shuttling between the woods. The moonlight in the sky shone through the gaps in the woods, leaving only an afterimage of Tieniu and the two of them, and the sounds behind them were thrown away far away.

"Have they followed?"

"How did I know? Don't worry so much, just run out of their encirclement."

"I feel a little uncomfortable when you hold me like this."

"Haha, I'm still tired, did I say that?"

"You are my son, and it is only natural to honor my mother."

"Mom, please have mercy on me, I'm tired too."

"Son, put me down and you can run away by yourself. I've had enough. I don't want to hide anymore. I'll fight them and leave a way for you to escape."

"You really have the talent to be a mother, but please save it."

"What I said is true. Put me down and I will tell you that all my property is hidden..." Before Kurisa could finish her words, she was interrupted by Tieniu.

"Okay, keep your property to yourself. As long as I'm here, you won't be caught. Trust me."

"Little rascal, wuwu...why my nose is sore and my tears are falling."

"Haha, that's so passionate."

"I'd better tell you where the property is buried. If I'm gone, I won't be able to take advantage of others..."

"Forget it, I'm really not short of money, so I'll keep it for your retirement. You don't want to go to my place anymore? My room is going to be given to someone else."

"No, you must keep it for me."

"Haha...haha, then just live well and don't say anything else."

"Okay, I didn't hurt you in vain"

After Kurisha finished speaking, she hugged Tieniu's neck tightly with both hands, expressing her inner gratitude and excitement. This is true love amidst hardship.

"Mom, can you please be gentle? I was strangled to death by you. I was strangled to death by you before I even ran out of the encirclement. We are really unjust.

"Giggle, little rascal."

"Hey, take a rest. I'm exhausted." Tieniu put Kurisa down and stretched his arms, feeling slightly sore and numb.

"I'll rub it for you." Kurisa kept rubbing Tieniu's arms and shoulders with her hands.

"Forget it. Let's rest for a while. Let's leave quickly. We can't stay here for long."

"Okay, you're right, as long as you don't return home, nowhere is a safe place."

"Are you sure your home is safe?"

"After all, my father is still in power, so he doesn't dare." Kurisha's words suddenly became firm and domineering.

"No, we are surrounded." Tieniu suddenly found that there were crowds of people in the grass four to five hundred meters away, and blamed himself for his carelessness.

"It's over... It's all my fault. I'll lure them away for you, so you run away." Kurisha looked depressed and raised her hands helplessly.

"Haha, it's okay, I'm here." After Tieniu said that, his figure had already floated out and rushed towards the place with the most people. From the crowd a few hundred meters away, miserable screams of crying for father and mother could be heard. Tieniu did not stay behind at all. , the dagger in his hand flew.

Wherever he goes, as long as he encounters a human figure, he will leave a mark on the opponent's body, making the opponent lose his fighting ability. The screams are even more weird in the dark night.

Ten minutes later, Tieniu returned to Kurisa. There was no blood on her body, and her breathing was very even and natural.

"Did you kill those people?"

"I don't know, I don't know where to cut in vain. Anyway, they can no longer threaten us, so let's leave as soon as possible." Tieniu said calmly.

"Gee, he is worthy of being the son of my underground queen. He is decisive and tasty in killing."

"Stop feeling emotional, let's go, don't let anyone make dumplings again."

"What are dumplings?"

"A kind of Chinese delicacy is made by soaking flour with water, grinding it into a paste, rolling it into dough with a rolling pin, wrapping the mixed meat filling in it, steaming or boiling it, and coating it with physalis. It is very delicious. "Tieniu explained patiently, trying to be as detailed as possible.

“What is a rolling pin?”

"It's a tool that makes a wooden stick smooth and clean, and uses it to press the surface thin." The two of them said and walked forward, walking through the mountains and forests.

Tieniu no longer cares about the pitiful cries of crying for father and mother behind, and does not pay attention to their life and death. When they set foot on this road, they should know that their future, whether they are dead or alive, is their fate, and they must be saved. The original choice was to pay.
