The Concubine of Crossing

A few steps ahead is the figure of County Magistrate Yu. Although a group of people are blocked in front of him, Li Xiao is sure that he will be able to take them down in a while.

However, Liu Huwei stopped him one step at a time, and hurriedly said, "Go!"

Liu Huwei's expression was too hasty, and he pointed in the direction of Shacheng and said, "There are a lot of people over there!"

Li Xiao looked in the direction he pointed, and sure enough, he saw a large group of people rushing over there.It would be inaccurate to say that it was a large group. At a glance, from the range of sight, there were countless people rushing here.

However, these people are not soldiers, but ordinary people with weapons, and the weapons in the hands of these people are not murderous weapons such as swords, but wooden sticks and benches, and even some people with brooms and pots Shoveling, it looks like they are here to fight.

When confronted with such a person, you can't bear to do it, and if you don't do it, you will be at a disadvantage.And it is said that ants kill elephants more often, so many ordinary people can kill people with one fist, Li Xiao can't carry it even if he has three heads and six arms, no wonder Liu Huwei plans to slip away.

But leaving like this made Li Xiao a little unwilling. After being dragged onto the horse by Liu Huwei, Li Xiao looked at the face of County Magistrate Yu, weighed the sword in his hand, turned around suddenly, and threw at County Magistrate Yu at once. past.

Apparently, no one thought that Li Xiao was on his horse, and even attacked Yu County Magistrate. Everyone had expressions of shock on their faces. Wanting to resist him, he only heard a pop, and the sword shot straight out from the guard's body. If it wasn't blocked by the hilt, the long sword would have left his body long ago.

It was also because he couldn't leave, so the whole person was led by the strength of the long sword and continued to retreat until he bumped into County Magistrate Yu, leading the two of them back a few steps before being stopped by the surrounding people.

But at this time, the surrounding guards were horrified to find that the point of the sword had passed through the man and plunged into the body of County Magistrate Yu.

Suddenly, there were screams one after another, and everyone was in a mess around County Magistrate Yu.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Liu Huwei led Li Xiao out of the encirclement, and quickly fled to the distance.

This is the territory of Shacheng, neither of them was sure if there were any small roads around them. Guard Liu didn't dare to stay, and drove forward all the way until it was completely dark, and they found a forest and stopped.

In order to prevent being chased by the horse's footprints, the two carefully stopped far away from the horse, and then each found a tree to lean against.

The weather has started to cool down a little bit. There has been no rain for more than a year. Many trees have withered long ago. Only a few kinds of trees that are very drought-tolerant are still alive, but the leaves have also become gray and thick. A thick layer of gray.

It was this time, and the two of them didn't dislike it either, and both leaned on the tree trunk to rest wearily.

At this time, Liu Huwei's stomach made a rumbling sound.After running for so long, the two worked so hard that they were not only tired, but also very hungry.

Hearing the gurgling sound in Liu Huwei's stomach, Li Xiao took out the package of jerky from his arms, opened it, and handed two yuan to Liu Huwei.

The friendship between the two has been pretty good along the way, and with the experience just now, it can be regarded as a life-and-death friendship. He was not polite to Li Xiao, and started gnawing on the jerky after receiving the jerky.

After taking a few mouthfuls, he found that something was wrong. Even though he was exhausted, he still asked, "Why don't you eat?"

After a while, Li Xiao said, "No appetite."

In fact, his stomach has been rumbling non-stop for a long time, but now he doesn't even have the slightest appetite, and even the thought of jerky makes his stomach churn.

Liu Huwei's chewing sound also stopped, and he said after a while, "You won't... kill someone for the first time, right?"

Li Xiao didn't say a word, it was indeed his first time to kill someone.After that period of thrilling time, as long as he closes his eyes now, all the faces in front of him are the faces of fear or resentment, as well as the overwhelming smell of blood filling the tip of his nose, making his throat roll over and over again.

Liu Huwei didn't know how to comfort him anymore. If there was wine at this time, he would definitely bring it to him to drink more, and pat him on the shoulder to comfort him.

But now there is nothing, even clean water can't wash off the bloody smell on his body, he can only say, "Don't think so much, just sleep for a while, I'll watch the night."

Li Xiao was indeed very tired, not only physically, but also mentally.He hummed, closed his eyes, and thought about sleeping for a while, and then replacing Liu Huwei when he woke up.

However, when he closed his eyes, there were still patches of blood red in front of his eyes, and even the smell of blood dried up on his body became more intense at this moment, making him frown uncomfortably.

Although he was tired and hungry now, Li Xiao couldn't sleep now. He opened his eyes, and he planned not to waste this precious rest time, and let Liu Huwei take a rest first.

Suddenly, the horse in the distance let out a shrill neigh, as if it had been hurt by something that made it unbearably painful.

Li Xiao opened his eyes suddenly, and Liu Huwei also quickly approached him, and found that he was awake, so he leaned against him tightly, and the two watched the horse's direction vigilantly.

At first, both of them thought it was people from Shacheng who were chasing them, but they soon realized that something was wrong.

Although they were a little far away from the direction of the horse just in case, they couldn't be so far away that they couldn't even see the torches.

And no matter how familiar the people in Shacheng are, it is impossible to be so familiar with them that they don't even light torches in such a forest.

Both Li Xiao and Liu Huwei had one thought in their hearts: what happened.

After such a short time, the horse had made no sound, and there was a rustling sound running towards them.At this time, Liu Huwei didn't care whether the fire would attract the enemy, so he quickly lit the fire folds. Li Xiao also took the long knife he had snatched before leaving, and stared at the surroundings vigilantly.

The fire was lit up, and a small light illuminated the surrounding situation for them, and it was this glance that sent chills down the spine of the two of them.

Surrounding them, there was a group of wild dogs or wolves, staring at them with green eyes.

Liu Huwei's hand trembled, and the ignition booklet almost fell to the ground. It was Li Xiao who leaned behind him, and he suddenly calmed down.

Along the way, they also met a lot of beasts, but there were so many of them, most beasts would avoid them, but they bumped into the hungry ones, and they just delivered food to them.

And now...the two of them have become the food in the mouths of these hungry wolves.

The two stood back to back, Liu Huwei held the sword in one hand, and tightly held the fire pocket in the other.

Now I really regret not lighting a fire. Although I can avoid the pursuit of the Shacheng people, it does make them dangerous in the darkness.At this time, it was too late to ignite the fire, but it was not a solution to let the fire ignite like this, not to mention that such a little flame would not have much deterrent effect, just letting it burn like this, the light would soon be gone. will get weaker.

Liu Huwei rolled his eyes, looked at the thick leaves on the ground, and had some thoughts in his heart.

Just when he was thinking about something, because his body moved slightly, the torch in his hand also shook slightly. At this moment, the hungry wolf that had been dormant all this time rushed towards him fiercely.

Liu Huwei was startled, and subconsciously raised his hand to resist, but because of his distraction just now, although he successfully resisted the attack of the first wolf, he was unable to respond to the other wolves that came on the attack.

Fortunately, Li Xiao reacted quickly and quickly turned around to help him resist. He had great strength and quick movements, and the rushing wolves were quickly knocked back by him. I don't know if he is still alive.

However, he made up for Liu Huwei's vacancy, but exposed his back. After reacting, Liu Huwei looked at the wolf head rushing behind him, and quickly turned back to help.

Because his action was too eager, the torch that he was holding in his hand fell to the ground.

The eyes of both of them suddenly went dark, and the world fell into darkness.

However, they couldn't see anything, and the darkness didn't affect the movements of the wolves. With a gust of wind blowing in, Li Xiao felt something bite on his shoulder.

Li Xiao reacted quickly, and quickly sent the wolf on his shoulder flying with a punch. Just like this, a large piece of flesh was brought out by the sharp teeth, and he suddenly felt a huge pain in his shoulder, and blood flowed down Clothes dripped to the ground.

The most troublesome thing is that the fresh blood stimulated the viciousness of the wolves, and they rushed towards them fearlessly one by one.However, because Li Xiao couldn't see, he had to bite his fangs almost every time to react. In this cruel environment where he would die at any time, his mind became clearer and clearer due to the stimulation of pain, and he gradually changed from being only being beaten to death. Only by biting can he react, and develop to swinging his fist in advance before the wild wolf is about to pounce on him. With one punch, the progress can be said to be more than a little bit or two.

The situation on Li Xiao's side has barely stabilized, but Liu Huwei's side is not so optimistic.Because Li Xiao was right next to him, in order not to accidentally injure him, he didn't dare to move his sword, but he didn't have Li Xiao's strength, and he had to fight in the dark with a group of wolves who could see at night, and he soon fell into a disadvantage. , was thrown to the ground by the wolves.

At this time, the fire fold that Liu Huwei dropped on the ground burned a few dry leaves, and it seemed to be gradually burning.

At this time, Li Xiao saw Liu Huwei's miserable state, and quickly threw out the long knife, smashing the wild wolf that was about to bite his neck, and rushed over quickly, kicking one by one. , and kicked the wolves that were biting him away.

His strength was too great, and basically the wolf who was kicked by him could not continue to get up. Looking at the group of companions lying on the ground, and adding the flames that were gradually igniting, the remaining few were finally watching vigilantly. After talking to him for a while, he finally backed away slowly.

Li Xiao rushed over to help Liu Huwei up, "Are you alright?"

Liu Huwei panted heavily, and it took a while before he said, "It's okay, I can't die."

As he said so, just looking at the large and small wounds on his body, he knew that it didn't look like nothing happened at all.

But at this time, Li Xiao didn't care about so much anymore. He was sure that there was no fatal injury on his body, so he quickly touched the medicine bottle on his body.

After that, he fumbled for nothing, looked down, and saw that there were cuts all over his body, and he didn't know when the medicine bottle fell off.
