The most unlucky crossing in history

Zhong Qiyun's heart sank, and he was about to pretend to be a fool to cover it up, but before he could make a move, Zhang Hong, the other person who helped Zhong Qiyun out of trouble just now, rushed over.

"grown ups!"

This shout made Xie Wenyuan look away from Zhong Qiyun, and looked at the source of the sound.

Zhang Hong only had time to lift the wooden fence, and didn't notice whether Xie Wenyuan avoided the horse's hooves, so he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "My lord, are you okay?"

Seeing this, Yanzhi, whose legs were limp from the fright of the frantic horse, hurriedly took an umbrella from the carriage, and rushed to shield Xie Wenyuan from the torrential rain.

Xie Wenyuan waved his hand slightly: "No problem."

After finishing speaking, he lowered his eyebrows and looked at the "stupid" person lying on the ground.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, Xie Wenyuan said: "It's just that the prison cart crashed, and the shackles broke off somehow. Zhou Youling should be injured after being hit so hard."

Yan Li didn't know the truth, and thought that his master was worried about Zhou Youling's injury, so he said in his heart: "My lord, this man has done such evil things, God can't wait to take him away, why are you worried about him, it's better to let him break his body." My hands and feet are in pain for a while, and I should make amends to the two sisters of the Wu family."

Xie Wenyuan looked at Zhong Qiyun, and nodded in agreement: "That's right, thinking of the second daughter of the Wu family, I can't wait to slash Zhou Youling twice this week."

The messenger who followed the prisoners all the way from Shuzhou over there said flatteringly: "Hey, Brother Yanzhi is thinking about it now, Mr. Xie is different from us rough people, he is as compassionate as a Bodhisattva, and he treats bad people well. "

After hearing this, Xie Wenyuan laughed contentedly, and then said: "However, the review has not yet ended, and Zhou Youling's guilt has not been fully determined. If the prisoner loses arms and legs on the way to escort... "

Speaking of this, he was worried: "If people think that we are harsh on prisoners, then..."

Seeing the appearance of Mr. Xie who came from the capital, the officers were even more disdainful, but their smiles remained unchanged: "Don't worry, my lord. The three of us will check Chen and Zhou Youling carefully later. I will definitely not let this scoundrel tarnish your honorable name."

Xie Wenyuan nodded in satisfaction and said, "It's just that the prison car has been destroyed, where will he be placed tonight?"

Anza's large tent can only accommodate five people at most, if you add this Chen dumb...

Let's not talk about Chen Ya'er's insanity, but they couldn't bear the unwashed stench brought out in the prison.

"This..." three solutions

After exchanging glances with each other, they gritted their teeth and said, "I think Zhou Youling is already insane, so put him in handcuffs and tie him outside the big tent..."

Before he finished speaking, Xie Wenyuan frowned when he saw Xie Wenyuan, and remembered what Mr. Xie was worried about just now. He rolled his eyes and said, "Then let him and the five of us squeeze into the same tent." Bar."

Xie Wenyuan heard the words and sighed slightly: "Then I will wrong you."

"Don't be wronged or wronged, the small ones should be."

Zhong Qiyun, who was lying on the ground pretending to be stupid, was even more puzzled after hearing this for a long time.

Could it be that Mr. Xie didn't see that he was pretending to be stupid just now?

In the past three days, although these few people were escorted, Mr. Xie spent most of his time sitting in the carriage, and occasionally came out to bask in the sun.

Zhong Qiyun didn't see him giving orders much, so he couldn't figure out what kind of person he was.

On the surface it looks very smart...

But from the conversation just now, why does he feel that Mr. Xie is actually a cowardly person who likes to listen to flattery?

Zhong Qiyun's heart was beating drums, could this be the so-called superficiality?

Or maybe this person is acting now?

But why is he acting, Zhong Qiyun thought, if it were him, and he found someone pretending to be crazy in front of him, he had to solve this hidden danger first, so as not to get burned later.

But it doesn't matter whether Lord Xie really didn't see it or pretended not to see it and planned to make another plan.This is a matter of fate, Zhong Qiyun dare not act rashly now, if he is exposed now, there is nothing to say, only a dead end.

So when a few assistants helped him up with a 'leg and foot injury', he was still that silly and dumb Chen Ya'er.

The torrential rain lasted all night.

The next day, the rain stopped and the road was muddy. All six people in the group had horses, but they were able to walk slowly on the horses. However, the prison car was destroyed yesterday, and the criminal had a "leg and foot injury" yesterday, and it was difficult for him to stand up, let alone walk. up.

Xie Cha looked at Chen Ya'er, who was sitting on the ground slumped and unable to stand up, and said angrily: "What can I do? This fool can't ride a horse or walk. We can't carry him to Jingzhao City Bar?"

Zhong Qiyun stared at the front in a daze, but smiled in his heart: It's a good idea.

"Then you can't let him sit in our lord's carriage?" Yan Zhi looked at 'Zhou Youling' and said anxiously, "What kind of dignity!"

He spent the whole night in the tent with this 'Zhou Youling' last night. He was so smoked that he couldn't stand it, and he didn't sleep all night. Now he can't figure out whether he stayed outside the tent last night in the rain or was caught in the tent.

Smoked more bitter.

Xie Wenyuan looked down at the 'Chen Ya'er' who couldn't stand up, and was amused. After a while, he said: "Then let him sit on the mast behind the carriage. Ya borrowed a prison cart."

"Yes."

Waiting for the messenger to carry 'Chen Ya'er' to the mast behind the horse and sit down, then it can be regarded as a good start.

Zhong Qiyun was sitting on the edge of the carriage, thinking that Mr. Xie said just now that he would arrive at Guangyuan Mansion in a few days, and he would be locked up in the prison cart at that time. It would not be as easy for him to escape as it is now.

He still couldn't wait.

In the following time, Zhong Qiyun carefully observed Mr. Xie again. This man still stayed in the carriage most of the time as before. When the weather is clear, he will come out to ride a horse. There is nothing else to do when he walks around. Similarly, he did not pay too much attention to him.

Could it be that he really didn't notice that day?

Zhong Qiyun thought to himself.

In fact, it is so dark at night, it is not easy to see clearly, not to mention that in such a situation, except that he knows that he is pretending, even if others see that moment, they will only regard him as frightened and will not go to him. It's up to you to play dumb.Maybe he was just worrying too much, this Lord Xie actually didn't notice anything wrong at all.

Thinking of this, although Zhong Qiyun was still a little worried, he could only plan to act as soon as possible.

In fact, at this moment, he really hates that he didn't have the slightest interest in history back then. He pretended to be dumb for so many days, and only heard a few words about this dynasty from others. He only guessed that the Shuzhou he just left was the modern Chengdu, right?He could hear it because of the accent.But the capital city is 'Jingzhao'... Zhong Qiyun is a little confused. Which dynasty in history had its capital city called 'Jingzhao'?And this Mr. Xie, who is the historical figure?Or is it simply a passerby who has no ability to leave a name in the history?

If he doesn't understand Xie Wenyuan's identity, he doesn't know whether the writer is trustworthy or not, or whether he should be wary...

He has no clue.

But seeing Guangyuan Mansion getting closer and closer, Zhong Qiyun became even more anxious.Don't dare to move, but can't just stay still...

Can't wait to die, observe for another two days, if there is nothing wrong, he has to find a chance to escape...

Fortunately, the assistants knew that he was 'Chen Ya'er'. The guards were tighter at night a few days ago, but these days, seeing him in a daze, the guards were not so strict.

Another day later, the party escorting the prisoners failed to cross the densely forested Bijia Mountain before night fell, so they had to stay in the wild again.

"

Tomorrow, after crossing this mountain, we will arrive at Guangyuan Mansion. After leaving Guangyuan Mansion and crossing Daba Mountain, we will arrive at the boundary of Hanzhong. There are not so many mountains there, and the land is flat and flat. If you can walk faster, it will take only a few days. Then you can go to the capital. "

There are many mountains and rivers in Bashu, and the weather is even more cloudy and unpredictable. It is no exaggeration to say that the journey is over mountains and ridges, and it is exposed to the sun and rain. After being tossed and tossed in the mountains, several people are exhausted. Seeing that they are about to leave Bashu. My heart is naturally relieved a lot.

A fire was lit in the night, and the three messengers took out a little wine bought yesterday at a roadside tea shop and set it on the fire to warm it up, then clinked glasses with dry food.

Today, the moon and stars are shining brightly, Xie Wenyuan's mood has improved a lot, seeing that the few people did not drink excessively, he did not criticize them harshly.

After eating and drinking, Xie Wenyuan said: "Let's rest early today, let's start early tomorrow."

"Yes, my lord."

At midnight, the moon was shining brightly, and except for the sound of the wind, there were only the snoring of a few people who had slept soundly for a long time. Watching Zhong Qiyun's relieved breathing and sinking down to snore, Zhong Qiyun slowly opened his sleepy eyes.

Although these escorts are not strictly guarded, they should be a habit developed all year round. There are three keys for the locks of head shackles, hand shackles, and leg shackles, and each of the three escorts holds a key.It's a good thing that the shackles were destroyed by accident, and it doesn't matter if the shackles don't move, but if he wants to escape, he has to take off the shackles no matter what, otherwise how can he escape?

Therefore, Zhong Qiyun had long been prepared to act when the guard with the shackles and keys was in charge.

Thinking of this, Zhong Qiyun held his breath and concentrated, and slowly stretched out his hand to touch the shackle key pinned to Jiecha's waist.

When the finger touches the head of the key, he turns the key carefully, and pays attention to the state of solving the difference from time to time.

Time passed, and Zhong Qiyun was sweating profusely. He saw that the key had just been turned halfway, and before Zhong Qiyun breathed a sigh of relief, the solution suddenly moved!

Zhong Qiyun was startled, withdrew his hand, and closed his eyes.

But fortunately, the messenger just groaned, scratched his face, and fell asleep again. Zhong Qiyun let out a breath, waited for a while, and stretched out his hand again. This time it went smoothly, and hooked out the key.

With the key in hand, Zhong Qiyun squatted down slowly, covering up the rustling sound of a gust of wind blowing through the branches, and untied the shackles.

The next moment, Zhong Qiyun crouched on the ground and slowly crawled out without making a sound.

Although the distance was short, his heart was beating like a drum. After climbing to a certain distance, he stepped on the flat ground, bowed his body and ran quickly towards the forest...

In the open space at the foot of the mountain, the three guards had no idea that the prisoners they were escorting had escaped, and were still soundly asleep.

After a while, Zhang Hong walked up to the carriage and tapped lightly, "My lord, he... escaped..."

Xie Wenyuan in the carriage opened his eyes, and those eyes were filled with a strong interest that he had never had before.

"Wait a little longer."

"How do you know..." Zhang Hong still can't figure it out, why is that 'Chen Ya'er' really not a fool as the adults said?

Xie Wenyuan suddenly laughed softly: "How could a person with such exquisite eyes be a fool?"
