Chapter 188: Hes also someone elses heart (for Wuming)
The tent where Qi Kangan and the others were staying was close to the hillside. It was obviously a convenient location chosen by humans. The soldiers led them around the tent and ran through the snow for a short distance before reaching the foot of the mountain.
There was already a group of soldiers waiting at the foot of the mountain. They met each other, and without any extra words, the soldiers came out and five of them fled out of the mountain and disappeared. The others waited for the villagers to gradually enter the mountain road, and then walked among the villagers.
The mountain has been covered with heavy snow, but there is a small mountain path that can accommodate one or two people. It must be frequently walked by people, or it has been specially cleared, so that you can look at the dirt on the ground.
It was just muddy and slippery every step I took.
They didn't dare to light torches, and they had no torches, so they could only move forward by moonlight.
People in the team kept slipping and falling, and each time they fell, they were not just one person. They were dragging each other down, and once they fell, they were a pile.
However, they were used to the hardships along the way. They got up when they fell down, and they still had the pleasure of looking at the snow next to them that was higher than their heads. They whispered to the people next to them: "So the snow is so thick."
This road is like digging a chasm in the snow. As long as it is kept quiet, as long as there is no one around here, it cannot be seen from a distance. It is very secretive.
The soldier at the front seemed to have just disappeared as soon as he ran away. He just entered the mountain road to clear the way for everyone.
There was a soldier closely following Old Man Qi. He stumbled unnoticed, and the soldier couldn't reach out to help him. The two of them dragged each other and fell to the ground.
The soldier quickly helped him up, "Old man, are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm old and useless. I brought the drag to you. How are you? Did you fall?"
"I'm fine. I'm used to being beaten and beaten for a long time." The soldier simply supported the old man Qi and walked away.
Old man Qi looked at him in the moonlight, looking at the boy who was only in his early twenties. He was used to being beaten and beaten for a long time. How many crimes must he have suffered?
He thought about what Guaguai had said to him again. Guaguai said, "You have to go through the military camp, and you have to sacrifice your own people to save them. It means that there is no other way to go, or the possible roads are blocked. It is best to go from the military camp."
Their only way to survive. If we have to save them, sacrifice will become inevitable.'
But this is a kid in his early twenties!
They also have biological fathers and mothers, and they are also the hearts and minds of others.
Old man Qi lowered his head with red eyes and didn't dare to look at him. He was too embarrassed to look at him.
Guaiguai also told him that after they entered the military camp, there was no other way to go. Even if they couldn't bear to think about it, the fifty people might not have a way to survive, and if they didn't leave, more people would die.
What's more, it was destined that someone would die after they entered the Acropolis.
Others may not understand this, but I hope the old man understands it, and precisely because he understands it, he feels more and more ashamed of himself.
At the end of the team, Qi Kangan also walked silently with his head lowered.
Suddenly, he suddenly said: "We should have taken other roads instead of going to the Acropolis."
Qi Baoer said ruthlessly: "Dad, if you take other paths, you will be someone else."
As long as the people they rescue really want to rescue them from Yingzhou, arrangements will definitely be made at key points on each road.
Qi Kang'an looked back and asked, "How many people are left behind?"
Piaozai floating behind: "Seven."
Wei De was drinking with the cooks in the kitchen with two soldiers. The one at the front entrance of the camp pretended to be drunk and went crazy and dragged two groups of patrolling soldiers away. To the east of the camp, the two men pretended to be fighting and dragged away a group of patrolling soldiers.
The two soldiers on the west side were more ruthless and started fighting directly with the patrol soldiers.
"Are the forty-three who are leaving with us together?" You're not going back, are you?
Piaozai: "That's right. I heard the chief of the Wei Tuen said that the seven of them would find a way to follow."
Qi Kangan breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good, that's good."
Let's go together, that's good.
Qi Baoer raised his head and looked at his stupid father, comforting himself was not like this.
But it was too dark, so Qi Kangan didn't notice his daughter's contempt.
He had great trust in his officers and soldiers, and it was natural that he would do what they said and would definitely follow them.
As they staggered forward, no one fell down. Even Qi Bao'er was tied up by Qi Kang'an. When Qi Kang'an slipped, she was also covered in mud.
I don’t know how long I walked, but I only know that it was almost impossible to see the moon due to the snow on the left and right, until I reached the point where the moon was directly in front of me.
Finally, they came out of the small mountain road, but what caught their eyes was a cliff.
The cold wind was howling, blowing on them who were already covered in wet mud, which was a sore feeling.
Unconsciously, even the soldiers huddled with them to keep warm.
The soldiers suffered worse than others. These people were kind and pulled this and that along the way, and they were covered in ice and mud pimples from the misfortune.
Qi Kang'an ran over from behind, breathing white mist on his lips and asked, "Where are we going from behind?"
Are you going to cross this cliff?
A soldier, trembling all over and gritting his teeth, told him: Yes, they have to cross the cliff in front of them. If they go over, they will be safe.
But how is this going?
Qi Baoer grabbed Silly Dad's collar and pointed to a big tree some distance away from them.
It was so dark that he couldn't see clearly from the left or right. Qi Kang'an looked carefully and carefully for a while, and then he saw something that seemed to be next to the tree.
"Dad, there is a boss's frame over there. We should be allowed to sit on that frame and slide along the rope to the other side."
The trembling soldier gave a thumbs up to Qi Bao'er with trembling hands, "Yes, just go there."
After saying that, he and other soldiers walked towards the big tree, and Qi Kang'an also waved to the villagers to follow.
Now that they are here, there is no way out. They can only move forward with all their strength. Not to mention sitting on a cliff, even if they have to climb down the cliff, they have to climb.
When the villagers learned that they had to sit on the frame to go to the opposite cliff, they all had no big reaction. It was all black and they couldn't see anything. They couldn't see where the opposite cliff was, let alone the opposite cliff, even this side.
You can't see where the edge of the cliff is.
Compared with the military camp at the back, I didn't listen to what the soldiers said. It was completely safe when we reached the opposite cliff. There was the imperial military control over there, and no one would bully the common people anymore.
Hope is in front of me, if I don't just sit in a box and slide along, I'm afraid.
Anyway, I can't tell how dangerous it is.
Praying for health and safety just in case, he called people to gather together and shout: "We have fought hard with the refugees on the road, no matter how strong the wind, no matter how heavy the rain, we have been short of water, food, frozen, and cold.
But no matter how hard it is, we have endured it all the way.
Are there any naughty people in our Qijia Village?"
The villagers all responded neatly: "No, there are no cowards in Qijia Village."
"Yes, we have worked together to get here. At the last moment, we trembled. Are you going forward or backward?"
There's no need to ask, the instruction is: "Go forward."
Qi Kang'an was very satisfied. The atmosphere was now brighter, and it was not so lifeless that it made people upset just to look at it.
A soldier under the tree whispered: "We really didn't save these people in vain. In this posture, they look a bit like us."
No matter what lies ahead, we are not afraid and will keep moving forward.
