The pain on the ankle was unbearable, but what was even more unbearable was the current situation.
The mud ditch was full of mud, and my whole body was stuck in it. The smell was disgusting. What was even more terrifying was that there were all kinds of bugs, grasshoppers, frogs and other things scurrying around. All kinds of reptiles.
The flying insects jumped directly onto her face, and some even got into her clothes and bit her. Xu Wanyi wanted to cry loudly.
Torches were swaying all around, and unidentified people were searching everywhere. She didn't know who they were. But it was obvious that falling into their hands would not end well. She could only bite her lips and press her body against
Under the grass on the edge of the ditch, I endured the stench and cold of the muddy water, hoping to escape this disaster.
However, things in the world are often like this. The more you worry about something, the more likely it will happen.
The two people holding torches had already passed the ditch where she was hiding. Fortunately, a frog jumped out under the stimulation of the fire and jumped on Xu Wanyi's face. Although Xu Wanyi was nervous,
He closed his lips, but still let out a frightened groan.
The man walking past immediately turned his head and looked over with eyes wide open. Xu Wanyi almost burst into tears and hurriedly buried her head in the muddy water without daring to move.
"What did you find?" came a vague voice.
"Lao Liu, I seem to hear something?" Another person said.
"What did you hear?" the confused voice asked.
"It seems like someone snorted in the grass over there." Another person said.
"Why didn't I hear it? You must not have heard it wrong." Lao Liu said.
"Damn it, you still don't believe what I'm saying. Damn it, there's something wrong with you today, Sixth, why are you so slurred in your mouth, and you dare to talk back to me. Come here, you take the lead." The man scolded.
Lao Liu said: "I don't dare, I will cut off the queen for you."
"Mother, Sixth, you are such a coward. That's all, just let me stand by to hold you back." The man cursed and walked over with rustling footsteps.
Xu Wanyi lay all over in the muddy water. She was like an ostrich with her head buried in the sand. As long as she couldn't see the other person, she felt that others couldn't see her either. She was trembling all over.
The man approached slowly, holding a torch, leaning forward and using a steel knife to slowly push aside the long grass above the ditch. Then, he saw Xu Wanyi lying in the ditch. He was startled at first, and then
Nisheng laughed.
"Did you see it? There was a big white fish lying in the ditch, Lao Liu." As he spoke, the man reached out and grabbed Xu Wanyi's hair, and forcibly lifted Xu Wanyi's face.
Xu Wanyi had never experienced such a desperate thing in her life. She lay there, her whole body stiff and unable to move due to nervousness and cold. Someone grabbed her hair and lifted her face up, listening to the man above her head.
Laugh. It feels like being stripped naked and standing in a bright place for others to watch.
"Did you see it? Did you see it? Haha, it seems to be a woman. Old Liu, what did I say? You should reply this time. Tsk tsk, she is quite beautiful." The man pointed the steel knife at Xu Wanyi's pale face.
Slowly reached out to pinch Xu Wanyi's face.
Xu Wanyi's whole body was trembling and stiff, and her fear and despair had made her unable to move. She could only watch helplessly as the big hand touched her face. She lamented in her heart: She really thought her life was miserable, why did she end up in this situation?
I am afraid that I will not be innocent even before I die. Now I wish I could die quickly, but it is a pity that I lost the dagger I carried with me, otherwise I should have killed myself.
Suddenly, the man in front of him shook his body and made a strange sound in his throat.
"Lao Liu... you damn..." The man tried his best to turn his head and look back, his voice was hoarse and terrifying.
Xu Wanyi saw in horror that blood was gurgling from the man's throat. Every time he said a word, the blood from the throat wound spurted out. The blood splashed onto Xu Wanyi's face, and Xu Wanyi even felt It feels warm.
Plop! The man fell down and his head was stuck in the grass in the ditch in front of Xu Wanyi. His body twitched unconsciously, like a grasshopper with its head pinched.
Xu Wanyi was so frightened that she couldn't breathe. She used all her strength to sit up and move away from the twitching corpse in front of her. But she heard a familiar voice in her ears.
"Princess, don't move or make any noise, I'm here to save you."
Xu Wanyi stared in shock at the man named Lao Liu who was speaking. He was inserting a blood-stained dagger into his waist.
"You...you..."
"It's me, Princess." Zhang Yanling said solemnly: "Don't make any sound, there are people around."
Xu Wanyi finally confirmed the voice, looked at the person in front of him with surprise, and trembled with excitement. He didn't know whether to cry or laugh. The savior had come. At the critical moment, in despair, his life-saving straw came. I don't know at this moment What words can be used to describe Zhang Yanling who suddenly appeared? It is not an exaggeration to describe it as a bright light in the dark night or a sweet spring in the desert.
"Hou...Master Hou...wuwuwu!" Xu Wanyi couldn't help crying.
"Shh... don't cry. There are enemies all around. Climb up quickly." Zhang Yanling whispered.
"I... my feet are sprained, ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooaaa
Zhang Yanling frowned and stepped forward, stretched out his arm around Xu Wanyi's wet chest, stretched it under her armpits, and hugged her tightly. Xu Wanyi was like an octopus, and she immediately wrapped her arms around her. Zhang Yanling With a force, a wet and muddy body was lifted out of the ditch. Xu Wanyi's body trembled, her whole body clung to Zhang Yanling's body, her fingers dug into Zhang Yanling's shoulder flesh, and then He didn't let go either.
Zhang Yanling knew that he would be exposed if he continued like this, so he raised his feet and put the body into the ditch. He quickly extinguished the torch, hugged Xu Wanyi and quickly moved away from the place and headed to a safe area in the west. He originally wanted to continue to blend in, but But now I can only give up.
It wasn't until he was a few miles away from where the enemy was searching that Zhang Yanling stopped at the back of a ditch. He panted violently and took a rest. Xu Wanyi still strangled Zhang Yanling as tightly as an octopus. Willing to let go.
"You can let go. You're going to dig out the flesh on my shoulders. Princess, let go, I'm going to suffocate." Zhang Yanling said.
"I don't...you can't even think of leaving me. I'm afraid...wuwuwu." Xu Wanyi cried while holding her tighter.
"Princess, this is a safe place. Tell me, where are Shihuayi and the others? Where are Yuan Cheng and the others? Why are you crawling in that ditch alone?" Zhang Yanling asked in a low voice.
"I don't know, they chased us down... We ran away, and then we all ran away... I sprained my feet and fell into the ditch and couldn't move. Who are these people? What are they going to do?" Xu Wanyi cried tremblingly.
