Before leaving, Yu Wan found a map and a few ingots of silver from the pile of dry bones. Then he felt satisfied and walked out of the tomb and walked away with his wild goat.

It was not until around noon that Yu Wan returned to the dilapidated temple panting.

—————

After all, Zhu Youjian was a man today, so the roast goat naturally fell on Yu Wan. Fortunately, he had always enjoyed the reputation of a "foodie" in his previous life, so even without salt and oil, mutton could be eaten.

Chongzhen has never eaten since he was hanging himself. Therefore, no matter how difficult this goat is to suck, he has to frown and swallow.

Soon, the two of them ate half of the goat, then they ate some wild fruits before they went on strike to close the stall.

"This time, thanks to your guardian license, if you can escape, I will definitely not let you down."

I don’t know if this is Chongzhen’s truth or the cake he drew for himself. But then again, although Li Zicheng looked at the peak of his life, he couldn’t stay there for a few days, and it was not his intention to join the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, supporting Chongzhen was also Yu Wan’s only choice.

"Don't worry, I will try my best to escort you to Nanjing. But if you should take the route, you will also ask the emperor to decide." As he spoke, he took out the map from his sleeve and spread it on the ground.

Yu Wan was not without his own opinions, but he always told himself in his heart that he would never forget his identity. Even if Chongzhen is worthless now, he cannot have a little bit of a slight mercy.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't say anything on the surface, but his attitude towards Yu Wan was very helpful. After staring at the map for a long time, he said in a deep voice, "First go to Baoding, then to Hejian, then go south along the Weihe River, arrive at Dongchang Prefecture, go around Mount Tai in the west, pass through Xuzhou in the south, and finally to Nanzhili."

At present, most of the five provinces in the capital, Shandong, Shanxi, Shaanxi and Henan have fallen into the hands of the Dashun Army, and the road to the south has basically been cut off. However, the peasant army only controls the main cities and has not achieved the entire territory. Therefore, as long as we try to avoid towns, it is believed that it will still work.

Zhu Youjian was a suspicious person by nature. Especially in the general situation of the fall of Beijing and the surrender of the ministers, he did not believe in anyone's actions to be the king. What's more, he is still trapped under the siege of Li Zicheng. He believed that as long as his whereabouts were exposed, the peasant uprising army who found himself first would definitely be the peasant uprising army. Therefore, if you want to escape, you have to rely on yourself.

After planning the route, the two began to accumulate energy and prepare what they needed on the road. After the sky darkened, they set off at night and headed south.

—————

Long'an Town, Baoding Prefecture, the capital.

Under the night, a family of three was rushing on the road with fear at the foot of the mountain.

The leader was a young man in his early twenties. The simple clothes and rags could not cover up his burly muscle lines. He was running in a wooden cart in small steps.

Two old men with white hair were sitting in the wooden car. Perhaps because of the colder weather, they kept curling up in the quilt and trembling.

This mountain is called Xiqiaoling. It is rumored that there are often bandits and bandits, and killing and robbing people are common. They can't help but be frightened every step.

In addition to these two foreigners, there are many home-based items on the car, but the most valuable one is the half bag of rice noodles hidden behind the old man.

"Grandfather and grandmother, we crossed this mountain and arrived at the market. After we arrived at the city, we found an inn to take a rest."

"Huzi, you took us all night, so you should stop and rest."

The one who spoke was Hu Zi's grandfather, his eyes full of pity.

"It's not too late to rest after passing this mountain. I heard that this place is very dangerous..."

After talking, Hu Zi stopped and looked up at the mountain road. He couldn't stop his heart from tightening, and was secretly surprised: Here, there are high mountains and ridges, rising and falling. On the left, cliffs and cliffs, once the thieves surrounded each other, there was absolutely no possibility of escape.

The mountain road was terriblely quiet, and there seemed to be a little noisy gasping sound in the darkness.

Suddenly, a roar broke through the silent night sky, "Opportune!"

As soon as the words were finished, fires burst into flames, and more than a dozen men in black rushed up with big swords!

Within a few breaths, he rushed to the front of the three of them.

Seeing this, Hu Zi quickly put down the wooden cart, pulled out a five-foot-long axe from under the cart, shouted loudly, and slashed towards the man closest to him!

Only with a "dang" sound, the big knife in the man's hand was almost cut into two pieces by one axe. The huge impact force shook him back several steps and staggered on the stone wall.

Yu Huo was obviously shocked by his divine power. He was no longer careless at the moment and quickly formed a circle and rushed up like a swarm of bees.

The young man was really brave and was not afraid of this formation. He kept wielding the giant axe in his hand, dismantling left and right, cutting forward and backward. After more than a dozen rounds, he cut the thief's flesh and blood and fell halfway. For a moment, no one dared to approach.

"Damn the thief. Kill these two old things first!"

A fierce man dressed in a thief shouted loudly.

Sure enough, as soon as this said, Hu Zi immediately got lost and hurriedly pulled back, shouting, "Don't hurt my grandparents!"

Taking advantage of his messy moves, a minion took out an iron hook from his body and hooked Hu Zi's right foot from behind. With a scream, Hu Zi fell to the ground and was pressed to the ground by the later minions and could no longer move!

"For your half bag of rice and flour, I actually hurt seven or eight of my brothers."

The bandit leader jumped off the horse's back and checked the spoils, and couldn't help but get angry. He lost so many people and actually snatched such a little thing.

Without saying anything, he picked up the long knife in his hand and slashed it straight. After two screams, Hu Zi's grandparents fell into a pool of blood!

The flower of blood suddenly bloomed in the endless night.

"Grandfather and grandmother!"

Hu Zi cried and struggled on the ground, almost lifting the minions pressing against him.

From what I remember, my grandparents raised themselves with great difficulty. Before they could repay their kindness for raising them, the yin and yang were separated in a blink of an eye. Hu Zi's sadness was imaginable. He only regretted that he was useless and failed to protect his close relatives.

"Dirty poor man!" The leader stomped on Hu Zi's chest.

Hu Zi spitted blood in his mouth, his eyes glaring at the bandit leader with bloody eyes.

"My family is kind-hearted and send you to reunite with these two old immortals!"

Just as the leader wanted to bear the tiger's death, a sudden sound of horse hooves resounded throughout the night sky!

"Boss, someone is coming from behind!"

The leader looked at it and saw that a fast horse rushed over in the dark night and came to him in an instant.

"Brothers..."

Before the young man could give orders, he was beaten to death by the young man with a blow and flew to the ground.

The young man's weapon was actually a wooden stick! Hu Zi subconsciously rubbed his eyes, and then he confirmed that the scene he saw was real.

The boy was about twenty years old and looked very handsome, but the worn-out underwear on his body was a lot less.

The young man was soon, and naturally it was Yu Wan. He and Chongzhen went south and passed by here. When they met a strong man blocking the road, they stood up to help. After all, they would not be able to pass smoothly without clearing these obstacles.

The Chang family's marksmanship is indeed extremely powerful. Even if they only practiced to a small success, no one could approach them when they were used. With the help of the combat power of the war horse, they could even rush left and right and no one could stop them.

After half a stick of incense, all the seven or eight bandits lay on the ground and wailed everywhere.

This sandalwood is indeed not an ordinary object. It is chopped with swords and is not damaged at all. It is hard to imagine its degree.

"You are so skilled. I, Laodao, please report to Wan'er!"

The thief stood up with a grin, covering the wound that was bleeding from the mortar.

Yu Wan knew that the other party was asking him to sign up, and he didn't talk nonsense to him now. He swung his long stick and knocked him to the ground, saying to Hu Zi, "Brother, how to deal with him, I'll leave it to you."

When Hu Zi heard the words, he jumped up and picked up his giant axe from the ground. With a "click" sound, the leader was cut off by him and fell to the ground with a bang.

Looking at his self-blame and resentful eyes, Yu Wan walked over and patted Hu Zi on the shoulder, "Brother, people cannot be resurrected by death, so be mournful and follow the changes."

Hu Zi wiped his tears and knelt down at Yu Wan and said, "I am Xu Hu, thank you for your kindness for saving me!"

Yu Wan quickly pulled him up. After chatting in detail, he found out that Xu Hu's father was the centurion of the Ming army. He died in a battle with the Later Jin army. After learning the bad news, his mother fell ill in bed and passed away a few months later. In recent years, wars in the north have been repeated, and natural disasters have continued. The family has lost their livelihoods and has to move south together, but they never thought that they will suffer another disaster here.

"Who is this?"

Xu Hu focused on the man behind. He stopped at the beginning and stayed aside. Although he didn't say a word, he could feel the powerful aura that could not be looked at.

Before Yu Wan replied, Chongzhen came slowly on his horse and said lightly, "Climb this mountain and go to Baoding Prefecture. Go to the city to buy some daily necessities."

Of course, Yu Wan knew that the emperor did not want to reveal his identity. After helping Xu Hu bury his grandparents, he rode on the horse and followed closely.

The road to the south was extremely difficult, and with the strong man Xu Hu, he naturally had more help.

These two young men are of the same age and have similar personalities. The more they talk, the more they become more familiar, and they quickly get together.

As for Emperor Chongzhen, he walked silently in front of him, and no one knew what he was thinking.
