After crossing, I surrounded the capital from the countryside

Shen Qingqing sat in the carriage, listening to the sound of horses' hooves getting closer and closer [It's too late! ]

She immediately shouted, "Quick, this carriage is too conspicuous, let's get off and run into the woods!"

When everyone heard her words, they immediately did as she said, picked up their luggage, got out of the car and ran into the woods.

Seeing that everyone had gotten off the car and fled, Shen Qingyun swung the whip in his hand hard on the buttocks of the two horses.

The horse screamed in pain and continued to run forward.

When Shen Qingyun saw the horse running away, he immediately chased in the direction the crowd left, not forgetting to cover up his traces along the way.

I don’t know how long I ran, but my heavy breathing became clearer in the silent night.

Xu Nanshuo, Li Yun and other women were gradually exhausted and their steps became heavier.

As for the pursuers behind them, whether because they failed to cover up their tracks in a hurry or for other reasons, they still split into a group and followed in the direction where the crowd left. From the sound of the voices, there were at least three people.

When Shen Qingqing was halfway through her run, her eldest brother Shen Qingsong held her in his arms, saying that her legs were short and she ran slowly. Seeing that her mother really couldn't run anymore, she looked around.

Perhaps because she was held in his arms and her field of vision was slightly higher, she was able to find a place to hide.

It was a small cave hidden by bushes, and was very well concealed in the dark. If Shen Qingqing had not practiced the Lingyun Jue to enhance her five senses, it might not have been discovered.

This cave is not big, but it can accommodate three or four people.

Shen Qingqing immediately stopped the group.

"I just saw a cave. Mother, Aunt Li, you don't have enough energy, so take Sister Yu Lu and Yan Yan and hide in the cave first!" Shen Qingqing jumped from her eldest brother's arms, pulled Xu Nanshuo and ran towards the cave.

A few men were left standing there, looking at each other, and then hurriedly chased after him.

When they ran to the cave, Shen Qingqing immediately pushed Xu Nanshuo and the other two, as well as five-year-old Yan Yan, into the cave and was about to use branches to block the cave.

Suddenly there was a push from behind. Shen Qingqing was pushed and stumbled into the cave. Since Shen Qingqing and Yan Yan were still children, the cave was small but they could still fit in.

Shen Qingqing was held in Xu Nanshu's arms. She turned around with difficulty and found that it was her second brother who pushed her. Shen Qingqing was a little confused: "Second brother?"

Shen Qingyun looked at his three-head-tall sister speechlessly, "Just go in and stay with mom and the others. Don't you think about what you can do with your short stature?"

Although he said this jokingly, he couldn't hide the worry in his eyes.

Without waiting for Shen Qingqing's answer, Shen Qingyun took the branch handed over by his elder brother and blocked the cave. "You should stay with mother and the others. Be obedient! Your brothers are here to take care of everything. What does it matter to a child like you?"

Shen Qingyun's movements were swift, and the last words he left for Shen Qingqing were "Be obedient and wait for us with your mother" before the last branch blocked her view.

After confirming that the cave was well covered by branches, they checked the surroundings again. After seeing that there was nothing missing, they quietly covered up the traces and retreated.

As soon as the men left the cave, they quickly ran in the opposite direction.

In the dark cave, Shen Qingqing and the others curled up their bodies as best they could, listening intently to the noise outside. They didn't dare to move, let alone make any sound, and even their breathing was slow.

In the darkness, a tense atmosphere spread in the cave, and cold sweat dripped from my forehead. Apart from the almost inaudible breathing sounds, there were only the chirping of insects and the rustling of leaves in the woods outside the cave, and the occasional chirping of a few mountain birds.

‘click’

'Susu...'

Suddenly there was a rustling sound outside the cave, and the deliberately light footsteps were gradually approaching.
