Hu Xiaotian came to the room, treated the wounds first, and then found some shabby clothes from the Zhou family's wardrobe. After putting them on, he took out the human skin mask Qin Yutong left for him, and followed Qin Yutong's writing
The method he gave himself was to cover his face with a human skin mask. The west chamber should be a woman's boudoir. He found a bronze mirror from the ground. Hu Xiaotian carefully arranged the mask in front of the bronze mirror. What appeared in the mirror was a woman.
He was a middle-aged man with dark complexion. He looked weathered and had many wrinkles on his eyes and forehead. He was a completely unfamiliar face. Even Hu Xiaotian himself could not recognize himself at this time.
After making sure that there was no flaw on his face, he packed everything up. The iron book and iron coupon that saved his life became a problem. Now the city gate was heavily searched, and soldiers were likely to search him up and down. If the iron book and alchemy coupon were discovered,
, then he would have nothing to hide. But this iron book of alchemy is related to the lives of the Hu family. If he stays here and lives in vain, Hu Xiaotian will not be willing to do so.
In the early morning, when no one was around, Hu Xiaotian crawled out of Zhou's house. When he walked out of Yujin Lane, he saw a dung truck dumping night fragrance parked there, but the owner was not beside the truck. Hu Xiaotian frowned and became aware of the plan. He quietly
He pushed the dung cart away and walked a certain distance. He looked back and made sure that the owner of the cart was not following. Then he threw all the iron coupons and daggers into one of the dung buckets.
He pulled the dung truck straight towards the west gate of Xiezhou City. Wherever he went, passers-by ducked out of the way. Hu Xiaotian was secretly happy. It seemed that he should be able to sneak out of the city smoothly today. At this time, the rain was getting lighter, and there were more pedestrians on the road.
There were still soldiers with bright armors passing by. The entire Xiezhou City was heavily guarded and filled with a tense atmosphere.
When he passed the notice board on the way, he saw a notice posted on it. Hu Xiaotian raised his eyes and saw that there was a man painted on the notice. Without looking at the text next to it, you really couldn’t tell that it was him. To say that this painter was
My painting skills are really bad, so I used this portrait to hunt me down. I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to find me even if I didn't put on makeup.
Hu Xiaotian continued to move forward with the dung cart. When he passed Ximen Street, he saw a group of people passing by. One of the people in the group was tied up and sitting on the cart, it was Zhou Wenju.
Zhou Wenju was smiling, and there was no fear on his face. When Hu Xiaotian saw that Zhou Wenju was arrested, he was filled with emotion and relief. He felt that Zhou Wenju had suffered such a disaster because of him. He was happy that Zhou Wenju did not die after all.
He was burned to death in the Tianfu Palace by Li Honghan's men. If Hu Xiaotian had martial arts that could not be matched by ten thousand people, he would have rushed forward to rescue Zhou Wenju at this time, but now he could only rush forward and capture him without mercy. Zhou Wenju made
Such a sacrifice was just to help him escape. He could not live up to Zhou Wenju's hard work.
At this time, Zhou Wenju looked in the direction of Hu Xiaotian. He did not recognize the disguised Hu Xiaotian at all, but found that the eyes of the middle-aged man pulling the dung truck seemed to be filled with tears. He must have sympathized with his plight.
.Zhou Wenju nodded slightly to him, with a faint smile on his lips.
Hu Xiaotian's eyes filled with tears. He said silently in his heart: "As long as I, Hu Xiaotian, have a breath in this life, I will repay Mr. Zhou's kindness and kindness!" After sorting out his emotions, he pulled the dung truck and set off again.
The major gates of Xiezhou City are heavily guarded, and everyone must be searched regardless of their entry or exit.
Hu Xiaotian pulled the dung cart and followed the crowd to the city gate. Soldiers immediately stopped him, and one of them shouted: "What are you doing?"
Hu Xiaotian glanced at the dung truck behind him: "Uncle Bing, what do you think I can do with a dung truck?"
Several soldiers all covered their noses. One of them came over to search Hu Xiaotian, and the other found a wooden stick and poked it in the dung bucket a few times, for fear that someone might be hiding inside. The person in charge of the search also specially placed a sign between Hu Xiaotian and the city gate.
I compared the portraits carefully and found that they had nothing in common.
The people behind were already getting impatient: "Hey! You turd picker, please leave quickly, please leave quickly. It stinks like hell! Are you trying to smoke people to death?"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "It's not that I won't leave, some soldiers will search."
"What's the point of searching for a manure delivery man?"
Several soldiers found that there was nothing suspicious and waved their hands, agreeing to let Hu Xiaotian go. Hu Xiaotian tidied the dung bucket slowly. The people behind started to curse again. Even the guard guard couldn't help it: "Hey! What are you doing?
?If you don’t leave even if I tell you to leave, do you want me to arrest you?”
Hu Xiaotian then pretended to be scared, pulled up the dung truck and walked out of the city, feeling ecstatic about escaping from the prison in his heart.
After walking for more than five miles along the official road, he saw a river in front of him, so he dragged the dung cart down the road to a deserted place. Hu Xiaotian emptied the dung bucket containing the iron coupons of the alchemy book.
When he was empty, he picked up the dirty alchemy coupons and daggers covered with cloth, went to the river bank, rinsed them with river water, and then wrapped them in cloth again and kept them close to his body.
The rain had stopped. Hu Xiaotian took a few breaths of fresh air and checked the arrow wound on his shoulder. Fortunately, he was recovering well. After putting on the Jinchuang medicine, he returned to the avenue and turned around to look at Xiezhou City in the distance.
, thinking of his night of terror, Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel very lucky. If Zhou Wenju hadn't sacrificed his life to save him, he might not have been able to escape from Li's clutches. There weren't many pedestrians on the official road. Hu Xiaotian went to the nearest market and found
At a noodle stall, he ordered a big bowl of beef noodles and had a full meal. Then he went to the horse market and bought a bay-red horse. Of course, Hu Xiaotian didn’t have Hoover’s ability to look at horses. He just saw that
The bay horse has full muscles and a shiny mane, so it should be in good shape. After buying a saddle and bridle for the bay horse, take the horse to the locals to ask for directions. You can go east around Xiezhou City to return to Qingyun, and go west along the official road.
Keep walking and divide into two roads at the foot of Pengyin Mountain. One bypasses Pengyin Mountain and enters the hinterland of Dakang. The other is the road he came from, directly over Pengyin Mountain. Although the latter is closer, Hu Xiaotian thought of coming here before.
After seeing the thrilling scene of nearly escaping from death, I decided to take the main road and go around Pengyin Mountain to Kangdu.
After eating and drinking enough, I bought some necessary items on the way, and then left the market. I had a bay horse to travel with, which really saved a lot of effort. I actually walked 150 miles in one day, and as I got farther and farther from Xiezhou City,
As they got further and further away, Hu Xiaotian's mood gradually calmed down. In fact, he now looked like a completely different person, and there was no need to worry about others recognizing him.
Because he was not familiar with the road, Hu Xiaotian did not arrive at the planned village or town before dark. He did not want to rush on the road in the dark. He happened to see an abandoned earth temple on the side of the road, so he decided to spend the night in the earth temple.
Hu Xiaotian lit a bonfire in the temple, set up tree branches, hung a kettle on it, boiled some water, rolled up pickles with the big cakes he bought at the market during the day, and ate them loudly, although there was also meat in the market.
But the weather is hot now, so if you take meat on the road, you might be afraid that it will spoil in the middle of the journey.
After simply filling his stomach, he got some fodder for the horses, then closed the door of the Tutu Temple and used the wooden stakes found in the temple to hold the door up to prevent uninvited guests from sneaking in at night. Since leaving the capital, Hu Xiaotian’s social experience
It is also increasing day by day.
Hu Xiaotian swept a clean place in the side hall, spread out a mattress and lay down. A bright moon slowly rose from the eastern sky. The moonlight shone like water on Hu Xiaotian's face, and he couldn't help but feel indescribable confusion in his heart. After leaving,
Before moving to the capital, he once thought about escaping from marriage and living the life he wanted. Later, his thoughts changed several times. He once thought that he would live only for himself in this life, and that he would live a free and easy life without worrying about anything.
Human feelings. But when drastic changes suddenly occurred and the Hu family faced life and death, the sense of responsibility that had been buried deep in his heart became stronger than ever. He could have had a better choice. He could have returned to Qingyun and found Murong Feiyan.
He went to find his sworn brothers and relied on their help. He might be able to turn the crisis around. Even if things went wrong, he might be able to dominate the mountain and become the king of the mountain. There should be no danger of his life in a short period of time. However, he chose a more difficult path.
path of.
Hu Xiaotian felt that there was a voice calling him all the time, leading him to the capital. He would do his best to save the fate of the Hu family. He might risk losing his life, and it might be in vain, but he knew that if he didn't go
, I am afraid that I will never be able to face myself and face the condemnation of my conscience in my future life.
The night wind blew gently, and a leaf finally lost its battle after a long struggle with the night wind. It swayed slowly and finally landed on Hu Xiaotian's chest. Hu Xiaotian picked up the leaf and blew it with his mouth. He imagined
No matter how much I think about my current appearance, I can't remember what kind of face I have now. By the way, I am able to escape from Xiezhou City smoothly this time, and I have to thank one person, Qin Yutong! This Xuantian Pavilion
As a female disciple, if she hadn't left a mask before leaving, she wouldn't have been able to leave Xiezhou City with such arrogance.
Hu Xiaotian touched his face, and now he had become a real two-skinned person. It was really funny to think about it. Hu Xiaotian yawned and was about to fall asleep, when he suddenly heard a bay-red horse neighing, and then uneasily
Walking in front of the porch.
Hu Xiaotian suddenly stood up. His previous dangerous experiences had made his nerves very sensitive, and his sense of danger prevention was unprecedentedly strong. He pulled a burning stick from the bonfire and walked into the bay red horse. He saw that he was not far away from the bay red horse.
Three feet on the ground, there was a green snake with its head raised and vomiting a message, ready to go. Hu Xiaotian saw the right moment and suddenly waved the wooden stick in his hand. The burning end hit the green snake hard on the head, sweeping the green snake away.
