Chapter 37: The Dying Man

Xiang Ye grabbed two long swords from the ground. He didn't have time to identify which one was his and which one was Mengsu's. He threw one of them to Mengsu and whispered: "Let's go!"

Mengsu took the sword and without a moment's delay, followed Xiang Ye and rushed out of the house.

After the two rushed out of the house, there happened to be a continuous miserable howl coming from the house where Guan Yijian and the other two swordsmen in white lived. The howl was as shrill as the sound of a pig about to be slaughtered, accompanied by the miserable howl.

, you can still vaguely hear Guan Yijian shouting excitedly: "Scream louder! Shout louder!"

Xiang Ye spat at that room with contempt. Although Mengsu didn't understand what happened in the room, but seeing Xiang Ye's expression, he knew it was something good. He followed Xiang Ye and looked at that room with contempt.

Take a look at the house.

The two of them did not dare to delay too much, so they quietly walked toward the entrance of the village. In the moonlight, they saw that the bodies of the villagers who had been killed earlier were still scattered around the village. They must have been buried by no one.

After leaving the village, the two of them did not dare to continue heading east. Xiang Ye simply identified the direction, pointed to the northeast and said to Mengsu: "Let's take the path and take a detour to the east."

Mengsu nodded without objection and followed Xiang Ye into the grass on the roadside and ran towards the northeast.

Early the next morning, Guan Yijian got up and walked to the door to stretch his waist. His face looked a little bad. It was obvious that he had done too much physical activity the night before. Two swordsmen in white lived in the same room with him.

Before they got up, they were lying on the bed with their buttocks sticking out and falling asleep deeply.

After Guan Yijian regained consciousness, he walked towards the house where Xiang Ye and Meng Su were imprisoned. There were two corpses lying in front of him on the road. He did not go around and stepped directly on the corpses. After a night, the corpses had already

It was a bit stiff, but Guan Yijian still felt that stepping on flesh was much more comfortable than stepping directly on the ground.

Sunlight streamed into the room through the window lattice, and the interior of the adobe house was still a little dim. After Guan Yijian entered the door, the first thing he saw was the swordsman in white lying in front of the door. Apart from the swordsman's body lying across the room, there was nothing else

There were also figures of Xiang Ye and Meng Su, and even the two long swords that the swordsman in white had taken care of were missing.

Guan Yijian quickly took two steps forward, lifted up the swordsman in white who was lying on the ground, and took a look. The swordsman's neck had been broken long ago, and he had been dead for a full night.

"Get up, get up!" Guan Yijian, who discovered that Xiang Ye and Meng Su had escaped, quickly rushed back to the house where he stayed last night, and hit the two swordsmen who were still lying on the ground with their buttocks sticking out and the sound of sleep flowing from the corners of their mouths.

They kicked each other.

The two swordsmen were sleeping soundly when their buttocks were suddenly attacked. Thinking that Guan Yijian was about to draw his gun and mount his horse again, they jumped up in surprise. They both covered their still red and swollen anus and looked at them standing in fear.

Guan Yijian in front of him.

"Get up, he's gone!" These two swordsmen were naturally good-looking, and looking at Guan Yijian with such frightened eyes added a bit of feminine charm to them, but Guan Yijian

At this time, Jian was not in the mood to pay attention to their charm. He glared at them and shouted: "Hurry up and chase after me!"

After hearing what he said, the two white-clothed swordsmen realized that Guan Yijian had kicked them awake not to mount his horse and attack them with his spear again, but to ask them to hurry up and chase Xiang Ye and Mengsu together. They quickly turned over and crawled away.

He got up and followed Guan Yijian and ran out of the village entrance to the east.

The three of them headed east, but Xiang Ye and Meng Su fled towards the northeast, and they could not catch up.

Xiang Ye and Mengsu ran toward the northeast for a whole day. They didn't stop until it got completely dark again, but at the same time they also discovered a more serious problem - they missed Sutou again. It seemed that

I only had to sleep outside for one night.

Mengsu was still a bit worried about what Xiang Ye had done the night before. After the two found a quiet place, she deliberately lay farther away from Xiang Ye.

After Xiang Ye found out that Mengsu was a woman, he was too embarrassed to get too close to her. The two of them took four or five steps together and each found a relatively clean place to lie down.

There was no quilt, and they didn't huddle together to rely on each other's body heat to keep warm. When the cold wind blew at night, the two of them huddled together and slept very uneasily.

Xiang Ye couldn't bear the cold, so he jumped up, rubbed his hands and moved closer to Mengsu, and asked softly: "Are you asleep?"

Mengsu closed her eyes tightly and ignored Xiang Ye. In fact, she was not asleep either. The cold wind penetrated through the hem of Shen's clothes and caressed her whole body, giving her goosebumps all over her body.

"I know you're not asleep." Seeing that Mengsu didn't speak, Xiang Ye seemed to be talking to himself: "It's such a cold day and you're sleeping outside. It's weird that you can sleep. In my opinion, it's better to be here than here.

If I'm going to freeze to death, it's better to walk a little further and see if there's any place to stay."

Mengsu closed her eyes. In fact, she also believed what Xiang Ye said. After spending a night huddled up in the wilderness like this, even if she didn't freeze to death, she would definitely not be able to sleep soundly.

"Are you leaving or not?" Seeing that Mengsu ignored him, Xiang Ye stood up, patted the dust on his body, and turned around to leave: "If you don't leave, I will leave."

"Wait for me!" As soon as he took two steps forward, Mengsu turned over and climbed up, trotting two steps to catch up with him: "I'll go with you."

Xiang Ye twitched the corners of his mouth, smiled proudly, and strode forward.

It is not very convenient to walk in the dark, and what is more, the two of them are not walking on a main road but on a wild field overgrown with grass, which makes walking even more difficult.

The two of them walked forward for more than two miles, one foot deep and the other shallow. Not only did they not find a place to camp, but the weeds under their feet became deeper and deeper.

"Oops!" Xiang Ye was walking when he suddenly heard a scream from Mengsu who fell behind him.

He quickly turned around and looked behind him. Mengsu, who was walking behind him, disappeared and disappeared to no one knows where.

"Mengsu!" After knowing that Mengsu was a woman, Xiang Ye no longer called her "Mr. Meng", but he also felt a little embarrassed to call him "Ms. Meng". After living for more than two thousand years, he always felt that "Ms.

"These two words meant a personal attack, so I had to call her by her name directly.

Xiang Ye, who originally thought Mengsu had disappeared, heard Mengsu's voice coming from the grass after he finished speaking: "I'm here, there seems to be someone here."

Xiang Ye followed the sound and took a few steps back. In the moonlight, he saw Mengsu squatting in the deep grass, with a man wearing dark clothes lying next to her.

"He seems to be still alive." Mengsu raised his head and glanced at Xiang Ye, then stood up and patted the dirt on his body when he tripped over the person lying on the ground, and said lightly: "Let's go!"

Xiang Ye ignored her, but squatted down and stretched out a finger to touch the nose of the lying man. Then he looked up at the dark sky. Without saying a word, he stretched out his hands to pick up the man.

neck, lifted him up and carried him on his back.

"We are all running for our lives. It is easier for others to catch up if you take him with you." When Xiang Ye carried the man on his back, Mengsu's eyes were a little complicated, and there was a hint of admiration in her beautiful eyes.

A bit worried.

"He's still alive." Xiang Ye raised the man on his back, turned to Mengsu and said: "If you leave him here, I'm afraid he will freeze to death tomorrow morning. If we take him away, can we

It’s good to be able to save him alive, but even if he can’t be saved, we have done our part to help people in danger and rescue those in distress.”

"I didn't realize you were still this kind of person." Mengsu showed a sweet smile to Xiang Ye. The unhappiness that Xiang Ye had with her wantonly and frivolously the night before was immediately relieved by his righteous deed of saving people.

Xiang Ye carried the man he picked up on his back and walked with Mengsu on the grass, one step at a time, one step at a time, one step at a time, until the sky became dim and bright, they still couldn't find a place to stay.

At this moment, the man who was carried by Xiang Ye on his back, perhaps because the temperature on his back gave him a bit of life, softly said "hmm", and moved his lips and said: "Water, water!"

Xiang Ye looked around and saw no sign of water in the vast grassland around him. When the man mentioned the water, he and Mengsu also felt a little dry in the mouth, but he still turned around and softly comforted the man behind him and said: "

Just be patient and you'll have water in a while."

I don't know whether the man passed out again or felt relieved after listening to Xiang Ye's comforting words. He made no sound again. His head hung on Xiang Ye's shoulder, lying on his back like a dead dog, motionless.

The man's stature was considered very tall among the people of the Qin Dynasty. If he stood up, Xiang Ye, who was nearly 1.8 meters tall, would probably be a minute or two shorter than him.

Walking with him on his back, Xiang Ye didn't feel anything at first, but it was a bit difficult to walk far away. Mengsu on the side looked at Xiang Ye walking in the grass with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and hesitated for a while before finally

He said to him: "You have carried it so far, let me carry it for a while."

Xiang Ye turned his head and glanced at Mengsu, curled his lips and said: "Forget it, you are a girl walking with a grown man on your back, and it is not good for you to be seen. Don't be forced to marry him.

"

"I just carried him for a while, why did I marry him?" After hearing Xiang Ye's words, Mengsu thought he was being scornful of her again, frowned and asked in annoyance.

"Uh!" Xiang Ye was stunned. He was only thinking about Mengsu being a woman, but he ignored that it was not the later generations where Confucianism prevailed, but the late Qin and Han Dynasties when Legalism was the mainstream and other ideas were secretly circulated.

In the early days, women at this time did not have the idea that if a man saw her body, she would not marry him, so walking with a man on her back was nothing.
