"ah!!!"

The shrill shouts spread throughout the forest, alarming countless birds in the forest and alarming soldiers elsewhere. All the teams who heard the sound quickly approached the source of the sound.

Yin Haojie and two personal guards rushed to the Phoenix Tree first, but they saw the bodies of three soldiers. One seemed to have no resistance, and was directly stabbed into his chest by a short halberd, and died with his eyes open: the other held the short halberd in his hand to protect his chest, but his throat was cut; the last one had no wounds on his body. After a closer look, it turned out that he was strangled and suffocated to death by someone's neck.

He kicked the phoenix tree, but the ancient tree had not moved at all. Yin Haojie cursed: "The waste is all waste. A group of people cannot catch a dying person. The whole team gathered, walked through the forest, and chased south!"

"General Yin, are you sure Qingji continued to flee south?" asked a tall and thin soldier.

"Yin Bucong, did you see Qingji when you came?"

"No."

"What about them?" Yin Haojie said, pointing to the soldiers around him.

“It shouldn’t be.”

"I haven't found these directions. Can he run into the sky besides the south?"

"No~No."

"Why are you still standing there? Chase!"

"yes!"

No one paid attention to the three corpses on the ground. The entire army ran south under the leadership of Yin Haojie.

Yin Haojie did not notice that the moment he left the ancient tree, a drop of blood dripped from the tree, dripping on the place where he had stood...

Yes, Hua Chen was really in the sky. He avoided the halberd before, crossed his legs and strangled the last soldier and strangled him to death with his elbow. Moreover, the injuries on his legs were not allowed to move anymore. In desperation, Hua Chen could only rely on his will to climb up the ancient tree and hand over his life and death to fate. Fortunately, fate had a chance to both him and Qingji, and he did not have another second chance.

Confirm that the pursuers had been away, Hua Chen slowly climbed down from the tree. The pain on his shoulder made him fall down from two or three meters above the ground.

After struggling on the ground for a long time, Hua Chen stood up shakingly, folded a not-so-thick branch, and slowly moved along the path the pursuers walked.

It was not that Hua Chen fell off the tree and fell stupid, but that his own body was clear. If he could not find a family to seek help, he would undoubtedly die. Qing Ji's identity was too sensitive in the Wu Kingdom. Even if the people supported him, he would probably not be able to get along with his own head. As for Hua Chen, he would not use his head to test the loyalty of the people of Wu Kingdom to Qing Ji. Therefore, the right way was to go south, turn the direction slightly after leaving the forest, avoid the pursuit and fleeing to Yue.

After walking for a day and a night, his injured leg had already been numb due to excessive pain, and his mind was blank, leaving only the idea of ​​"live" to support Hua Chen to walk on. Finally, a dazzling light shone on Hua Chen, giving his brain a moment of clarity.

He walked out and walked out of the forest. This information stimulated Hua Chen's cerebral cortex and also aroused the senses around him. When his feet moved, the pain in his thighs made Hua Chen kneel down and then lay on his back on the ground, breathing in his mouth.

The senses of his body awakened, and a thirst came from his throat. Hua Chen had not drunk water for a day. The water in his body was accompanied by a large amount of blood loss, so that the scene in front of him became blurred.

Hua Chen knew that if he didn't drink water, he would have to finish his game even if he had already walked out of the forest. Therefore, despite his unhappiness, Hua Chen still dragged his body and climbed towards the turbulent river not far away. The sand and stones rubbed the wound and dragged out a long and thick blood mark.

I don't know how long it took, Hua Chen finally climbed over this long 100-foot road and came to the riverside. He reached into the river to get water, but because the water flowed too fast, he could not take it out. Hua Chen could only put his head into the water to drink water. Cough~ Cough~ Before he could drink a sip of water, he choked him for a cough.

After finally drinking a few sips of water, Hua Chen lay flat by the river while resting while thinking about his next action: I don’t know how far this place is from the Wuyue border, and the sailors may go back at any time. He must leave quickly, wait for an opportunity to cross the border, and adjust the wounds of his body.

Yin Haojie led everyone to chase south, but he never even noticed the shadow of "Qingji". He had no choice but to order the entire army to retreat. A group of people returned to the outside of the forest dejectedly, and were about to go back to find the bodies of the three soldiers and take them back to Gusu, when suddenly a sharp-eyed soldier seemed to have discovered something and hurriedly ran towards Yin Haojie.

"General, look at me, there are people by the river!" The soldier who came was Yin Bucong. He was scolded by Yin Haojie before, but he had been unhappy in his heart. Now that he has the opportunity, he naturally has to perform well.

Yin Haojie took off his helmet and shouted excitedly: "I said why didn't I catch it? It turned out that he didn't run south at all. Come on, whoever takes this half-dead person will be rewarded!"

Hearing the shouts from afar, Hua Chen turned his head and took a look. It was indeed the group of ghostly guys. He smiled bitterly and slowly closed his eyes.

Lying by the river, Hua Chen was too lazy to even look at the soldiers who were getting closer and closer to him. His mouth opened and he deliberately shouted in a thick and heavy voice: "I chased him all the way, and I still want to rely on me to receive the reward for the next life!" In Hua Chen's opinion, this was a dead end. Since he had no way to live, he could only do his best to create a way to live for Qingji. At this point, Hua Chen turned over and rolled into the river, instantly submerged in the turbulent river, without a trace.

"Ah!!!" This is the roar that Yin Haojie roared when he saw the prey in his mouth escape again, even if it was just the corpse that escaped: "Get into the water and chase me!" After that, he pushed the soldiers beside him, but everyone was just concerned about retreating. The river was rushing, and no one was so stupid that he really jumped into it.

The Hanguang Palace of the Royal City

"My dear Yin is visiting the king."

"Yin Haojie, where is Qingji?" Helu stood up and asked hurriedly in the hall.

"When he returned to the king, although Qingji was injured, he was still extremely brave. He headed south and passed through the forest. He intercepted him once on the way. Although three soldiers died, he also injured him again. When he escaped to the Nero River outside the forest, he found that there was no way to go, and finally jumped into the river and committed suicide."

"After saying so much nonsense, I just didn't catch anyone, right?" Helu smashed the small incense burner in his hand at Yin Haojie and shouted.

"Did you see Qingji's body?" Wu Zixu, who had been silent next to him, asked.

"This~ Lord Wu, that Qingji is a dying person, and he jumped into the rushing Nirol River, and he will definitely die."

"So I just didn't see it?" Wu Zixu's voice a little heavier.

Helu said lightly: "It's over here, it's useless to say more. Yin Haojie, you go down. Remember, if Qingji is still alive, your Yin clan will die for him."

"Yes." Yin Haojie left the hall like a defeated rooster, thinking that he would go home quickly to burn incense, begging Qingji not to live.

"Mr. Wu, do you think Qingji is still alive?" After Yin Haojie left, Helu said to Wu Zixu worriedly.

"If you really like the hero Yin, you will definitely die. It's just~"

"Just what? Say it quickly."

"Ha, it's nothing, I'm worried. If there's nothing else, I'll take it back first."

"Oh, that's fine, I want to calm down too."

At the gate of Hanguang Palace, Wu Zixu wanted to turn around and return to the hall, but finally set off and returned home. He thought in his heart that what he said to Helu had not finished, and the rest was: Is this dead person really Qingji?

If Qingji is speculated that even if he is as noble as Wu Zixu, he would not dare to talk about it in front of Helu. Wu Zixu understood that if Qingji was still alive, the families that were only related to Qingji's interests before would do their best to help Qingji attack Wu again. Without it, they had lost Helu's trust and could never lose Qingji's trust again. Helu naturally understood this.
