"You can't tell, the patrol inspector is usually very polite and doesn't run slowly at all!"
"Isn't that right? After all, he is a talented person who came from Taixue! He knows everything!"
"Inspection, inspection, I see you. Wait for us, wait for us!"
…
The pursuers came in a hurry, and in a blink of an eye, they were at Han Qing's feet.
The teasing and calling sounds coming out of their mouths became increasingly clear.
Xu Qiang, Jia Liang and Zhao Laoer... Han Qing could accurately distinguish the voices of each of them. At the same time, his chest and lower abdomen felt increasingly cold.
Dare to travel back in time for more than half a year, Han has been living in a den of thieves without even realizing it!
Mr. Han foolishly opened up some way to make money and led everyone to get rich together!
How can anyone use you? Guarding a huge warehouse of grain and grass, just moving a few carts and selling them is your salary for a whole year!
Fortunately, God opened his eyes and allowed Han to hide in the woods by some strange combination of circumstances tonight.
Otherwise, once they are caught up by these bastards, the outcome will definitely be worse than death!
"Inspector Han, too. Why are you trying to force the county magistrate so well? It's making us unable to sleep in the middle of the night?"
"Isn't that right? It is said that Inspector Han is also a good person, but he just can't think about it!"
"Just pull hard, but you sneak away halfway through. Isn't this sincere and harmful to others?"
…
More familiar voices sounded from the path at Han Qing's feet. Then, they gradually faded away.
The moonlight was very bright, but not bright enough to illuminate the horse hoof prints on the ground. The archers and the country warriors were exhausted after chasing for half a night and had no energy to observe the plants and trees around them.
"Huh..." Han Qing secretly breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to wait for the pursuers to move farther away before quickly getting off the tree and escaping for his life.
However, before he could finish breathing a sigh of relief, someone in the retreating pursuit team suddenly grabbed his mount and quickly turned around.
"Zhang Tou, why did you stop? Did you find someone with the surname Han?" The voices of the archers and local warriors rang out immediately, causing Han Qing to suddenly feel his scalp jump, and his heart began to beat wildly.
The marksmanship was passed down from the ancestors of the Han family, but he had only practiced it for half a year, and had never really fought against anyone. He had no idea how he would progress.
But when he was in a hurry to climb the tree just now, he only caught a Tang Dao!
If his whereabouts were discovered, he might not even be able to defeat Zhang Fan with a knife. What's more, Zhang Fan would definitely not fight him alone. In the blink of an eye, archers and local warriors would swarm him.
Just as he was sweating in a fit of anxiety, Zhang Fan's response had already reached his ears clearly, "No, no, how can it be that easy? I just drank water from the stream on the road and my stomach was broken. You guys go first?" Continue to chase forward, and by the way, inform Dingping Village that strangers are strictly prohibited from entering. I'll go squat in the woods!"
"Be careful with that head!"
"It's so late at night, don't let the female ghost drag you away!"
"Be careful of mosquito bites on your butt!"
…
The archers and country warriors laughed and joked, and then continued to ride their horses forward. No one was in the mood, so they stopped to smell Zhang Fan's stench.
The archer Zhang Fan jumped off his mount, holding the wind lantern, and slowly returned to the path he had walked before. He squatted down and carefully inspected all the horse hoof prints and horse dung on the ground!
"It's broken!" Han Qing's heart tightened again, and he decisively took the Tang Dao out of his mouth and held it in his palm, ready to jump down at any time.
On the dirt road, the hoof prints of horseshoes will be very clear. As long as the observer is more careful, it is not difficult to find two lines of hoof prints, turning into the woods.
One of the two horses that Han Qing brought tonight was for his daily riding. Although it was not a famous breed, it had been kept in the stable of the inspection station, and its food and drink were much better than other animals.
Based on Zhang Fan's experience, just by looking through the horse manure on the ground, you can tell that some horse manure eggs are different from others.
However, Zhang Fan's next actions were far beyond Han Qing's expectations.
I saw this man, suddenly stood up, and quickly rubbed his shoes on the ground. In the blink of an eye, all the horse dung eggs on the ground were stepped on together, making it difficult to distinguish them from each other.
Immediately, the man quickly kicked up some wet soil, messing up the horse hoof prints on the ground. Then he put down the lantern, faced the direction of the woods, and bowed his head deeply.
From beginning to end, he said nothing. However, his actions said everything.
Han Qing's eyes widened, and his heart suddenly felt sore and blocked.
At the same time, Zhang Fan's image of carrying two bamboo baskets three days ago with a smile on his face reappeared in his mind.
It turns out that not everyone has no conscience. At least, Zhang Fan still thinks of himself and is unwilling to see him die without a burial place!
Zaogui, come back early!
Zhang Fan gave Mr. Han autumn dates and water turtles the day before yesterday, so that he could replenish his health? He was clearly taking a risk and hinting that Mr. Han should leave early!
It's just that Mr. Han is too stupid and doesn't understand his thoughts at all!
Just when my eye sockets started to heat up, not far away, the voice of the archer Wang Wu came again, "Old Zhang, Old Zhang, have you finished pulling? Are you okay? Be careful of being picked up by a wild wolf!"
"It's over, it's over!" Zhang Fan quickly put his hands on his waist, making a belt-like gesture. Then, while walking forward with his feet, he seizes the time to continue kicking, leaving traces on the ground to pieces.
When he lifted the lantern again, Wang Wu had already rode up to him. He looked him up and down first, and then joked with a smile, "You are really good at it. It takes you half an hour to poop."
"The food we ate was quite oily, and we drank unclean stream water on the way!" Zhang Fan rubbed his belly with one hand and explained nonchalantly, "Where are the brothers? Why did you come back by yourself?"
"Why don't I come back to look for you?" Wang Wu rolled his eyelids and said angrily. "The Japanese gunman named Han never leaves his hand. If he is hiding in the woods and sees you alone, he will shoot him with one click.
You’ll be shocked to the core!”
"Inspection of the marksmanship, haha?" Zhang Fan heard this and immediately shook his head with a smile, "It looks good, but in a real fight, you may not be my opponent!"
"Just brag!" Wang Wu curled his lips, stretched his neck on horseback, and looked into the depths of the woods, "Anyway, it's not in front of the patrol, so you can brag as you like. In the future, he will probably
I won’t even have a chance to expose you!”
After that, he looked away again, while turning his mount, shaking his head and complaining, "You said the same goes for inspections, it would be great to be soft with the county! You have to run away secretly. We are all around here, and he still has
Where can I run?"
"Oh, you are stupid because of studying!" Zhang Fan climbed onto his mount and rode alongside Wang Wu, "Our people are in charge of the Dingping Village in front. The people rowing the boats at the ferry are also our people. He hid
If you survive tonight, you won't be able to escape tomorrow, and you will be caught sooner or later!"
"Isn't that right?" Wang Wu looked back at the dark woods, and his voice suddenly became louder, "Once you get on the boat at Dingping Ferry, and the boat sails to the middle of the river, you will have to choose between Chaos and Ban Dao Noodles, so you might as well follow them obediently.
Let’s go back.”
"There are our people everywhere. It will be difficult for him to escape! He has to turn back and head west, through Jingzhou."
"Yongchang Zhai is stuck on the road. His appearance is so easy to recognize. If he dares to show his face, he will be captured immediately by our people!"
"Then we can only go northeast and climb Ziwu Mountain."
"Anyway, there are many forks on the road over there. Our people can't be stuck on every road."
"If you encounter a wild beast on the road, you will be dead!"
"Oh, I can't just stay here, I have to make the county official angry!"
"Well, I have to say that Inspector is a good person. But our children are all here, so we can't kill our whole family for him!"
"Alas! He committed suicide. No wonder we are cruel. Don't fall into our hands! Otherwise, there is nothing we can do!"
…
As the two walked, they talked, one voice louder than the other, as if they were afraid that Han Qing, who was hiding in the canopy of the tree, wouldn't hear.
Han Qing understood this and remained motionless.
It wasn't until the sound of the horse's hooves finally faded away that he climbed down from the tree, facing the direction where the two disappeared, clasping his fists and bowing his head deeply.
