They won the first battle. Although it was a sneak attack, the victory was incredible.
The soldiers rummaged through the pile of corpses and found a token from the Dragon and Tiger Hall. Even Song Erlang was surprised.
Among so many cottages, it is said that the most ferocious one is Longhutang, with its little fighting power.
He remembered that the one the servants were talking about seemed to be the Dragon and Tiger Hall.
Throwing the token to the guards behind him, Song Erlang said: "Either the previous bandit suppressors were too useless, or we overestimated these horse thieves. There is nothing to be afraid of. Let's continue to kill!"
"Yes!" Several soldiers around him shouted loudly.
Bian Yuanfeng and the others escaped, still in shock.
The horse beneath him seemed to be unable to run fast, and in the panic, everyone had already dispersed. He and Cao Yu, two horses one behind the other, had lost their way and ran towards the front randomly.
Bian Yuanfeng's face was pale, and he was holding the reins tightly with both hands. He was not good at riding, and his whole body felt uncomfortable.
The pursuers behind them seemed to be lured away by Lu Jilang and Bian Lei. They ran into a forest and finally rested after repeatedly confirming that there were no pursuers.
The two of them were too tired to speak, staring at the ground with wide eyes.
Bian Yuanfeng felt sick in his stomach, suddenly opened his mouth, lay there and vomited.
"Master." Cao Yu called.
What he just ate was vomited up in big gulps before it was even digested.
Cao Yu went to the horse and took off the kettle: "I'll get you some water!"
"You stay here, don't leave." Bian Yuanfeng looked at him, "I'm not thirsty."
He is particularly afraid of one person now. If something happens to Cao Yu when he goes out like this, what will he do?
A series of things that happened in these days made him feel like he was dreaming.
It was unreal, too illusory. He even felt that if he went back to the mountain now, Mrs. Bian and Bian Yuanxue might still be there, as would his charming little maids.
He had a headache, a dull ache, his stomach also felt uncomfortable, and he felt like vomiting again.
Cao Yu frowned, faintly worried: "Master, I'd better go find some water. It's okay. It's right over there. I won't go far."
"No! No!" Bian Yuanfeng said angrily.
Cao Yu sighed softly: "I'll come back as soon as I go."
Having said that, he left anyway.
Bian Yuanfeng was furious, but he didn't dare to yell loudly, and he didn't have the strength to get up and chase after him.
He looked over there closely, fearing he would hear some terrible sound again.
Cao Yu came back soon, holding a full pot of water: "Come, Master."
Bian Yuanfeng lowered his head and looked at the kettle, paused, reached out to take it, and poured it on his face.
Water gushes out of the pot, drips down his face, and into his open mouth.
He lowered his hands and shook his head violently. His head hurt even more, but the severe pain in his heart also made him wake up.
He rinsed the water in his mouth and spit it out, and whispered: "They are going to kill them all and leave us no way to survive."
Cao Yu didn't say anything, his expression was filled with hatred.
The scene just now was not unfamiliar, it was just that they had always been the ones sharpening their knives and killing indiscriminately, but just now, they were the same people who had no power to fight back.
Those corpses lying under the horses' hooves were sitting alive with everyone just a moment ago.
Cao Yu himself was a leader of ten men, and he had eleven or two people with him. He didn't know if anyone was still alive and could escape from there by chance.
"Master, let's continue walking after we rest."
"Where to go?" Bian Yuanfeng asked tiredly.
"Look for Master Ba, isn't Master Ba going to attack that village today? If that doesn't work, we can also go back to the mountain. Let's go to the back mountain to find a place to hide!"
Thinking of the corpses scattered all over the mountain, Bian Yuanfeng felt nauseated again.
He endured it this time, frowning tightly and not wanting to think about it.
"Go to my father," Bian Yuanfeng gritted his teeth. "When my father comes together, all these vengeances will be avenged. One day, I will let them all die under my sword!"
Cao Yu didn't say anything, sat down next to him, stretched out his hand to support his head.
Xia Zhaoyi found a shady spot by the cool lakeside. She whittled a smooth wooden board, wrapped it with rough long grass, and then brushed the horse's back.
She was too short and it was very difficult to brush. She had to step on the rocks beside her.
Long grass wears easily, and she has to re-tie it if it breaks.
After brushing it several times and pounding a lot of vanilla, she smelled it and finally there was no strange smell.
The sun was hot and it worked quickly. She threw away the wooden board and raised her hand to gently caress the horse's back.
"Ma, come home with me."
The comfortable massage suddenly stopped, causing the horse to turn around and look at her.
Xia Zhaoyi's eyes were soft, but his voice was sad: "This journey will be difficult, but I will not abandon you."
Every word spoken by those two soldiers was like a thin needle.
It was stained with vinegar and stabbed her heart hard.
"Let me give you a name," Xia Zhaoyi curled her lips and smiled, "I'll call you Qingyun, okay?"
The horse raised its head, brayed softly, and scratched the ground with its hooves.
Xia Zhaoyi jumped down, came back with the washed and dried saddle, hung it on the horse's back, tied the horse's bridle, stepped on a higher stone, and climbed onto the horse's back.
Leaning forward and stroking the horse's neck, Xia Zhaoyi gently pulled the horse's rein: "Let's go, Qingyun, let's go home."
The horse cooperated obediently and was led by her to turn its head.
Xia Zhaoyi walked a few steps and felt that the horse was still obedient. She tightened her legs and kicked the horse's belly, causing the horse's movements to speed up.
Avoiding the canyon where there was shouting and killing, she walked towards the jungle on the other side.
But in the current chaotic situation, some people and things are really unavoidable.
"drive!"
There was a sound of shouting and the messy sound of horse hooves coming from the other side.
Xia Zhaoyi stopped his horse and saw several horse thieves rushing in his direction from a distance.
She remembers the leader deeply.
After she reopened her eyes in this world, she was given the most dark and dark blow.
The young man following him had a mourning scarf wrapped around his head and his face looked familiar.
"Them?" Xia Zhaoyi narrowed his eyes and led Qingyun inside.
"drive!"
They drank and galloped faster.
Behind them, there seemed to be screams in the distance.
"You guys go over there!" Lu Tanlang pointed to another path, "Everyone, run separately!"
The people following him were somewhat reluctant and hesitant to leave.
"Let's go!" Bian Lei also called back, "It's better to run separately!"
Those ten men gritted their teeth and pulled the reins of their horses to turn around: "Forget it, let's go!"
If both of them die, let's make a bet on who is more unlucky.
However, Xia Zhaoyi felt that they were all quite unlucky. After they ran away, Xia Zhaoyi said softly: "These unlucky guys, they may not know that they have gone around in a circle and come back again."
