Xia Lin suddenly panicked and couldn't walk.
Such a terrifying Nan Jintian was really going to be taken back and tortured to death. She might as well commit suicide here now.
"Don't panic." Zhao Jiayan beside him said in a deep voice, and then quickly said: "Run southeast from here. There is a cave three hundred meters away. The entrance of the cave is under a rock. It is a cave I have discovered before. It is very Hidden, you run over there now and don’t worry about anything.”
Xia Lin said "Oh" and nodded quickly. However, when she was about to run away, she realized that Zhao Jiayan's words were wrong, "Aren't you coming with me?" He saved her and betrayed the island owner Nan Jintian, so he was taken back. There is no good fruit to eat either.
Zhao Jiayan pushed her and said, "I need to lure those people away for you. I will meet you in the cave when the time comes." After saying this, Zhao Jiayan took a few steps back.
"You..." Xia Lin was shocked to see Zhao Jiayan's dedication. She wanted to thank him, but now was not the time to say thank you, and there was no time. Finally, seeing that Zhao Jiayan had made up his mind, she nodded and quickly followed Zhao Jiayan's instructions. Speech is done.
Xia Lin did not look back, nor did she dare to look back. She ran forward and found a rock at the designated location. There was a haystack under the rock. She pulled the haystack open and saw an entrance.
Xia Lin swallowed, not caring whether there was a snake or not. Xia Lin leaned over and hid in, and made sure the entrance of the hole was exactly the same as before.
After entering, she couldn't see anything due to the darkness, and she didn't dare to move for fear of disturbing some kind of ladder animal or something.
Now she just hopes that Zhao Jiayan can come over quickly, and her mood is wandering in fear and fear.
After probably squatting in the dark and waiting for a quarter of an hour, Xia Lin heard a little movement from the entrance of the cave.
She clenched her fists tightly, not knowing whether the noise came from Zhao Jiayan or Nan Jintian's people.
"Xia Lin." Zhao Jiayan called her.
Xia Lin remembered his voice and hurriedly stepped out, "You got rid of them? Great! Then let's keep walking and try to reach the coast as soon as possible to take the boat."
"Wait a minute." Zhao Jiayan shook his head indeed, "Nan Jintian has sent too many people to arrest us, so we can't leave for the time being." After saying that, he fell to the ground with a plop.
"Hey! What's wrong with you?" Xia Lin didn't expect that he would suddenly fall down. He subconsciously stretched out his hand to grab it, and was horrified to find that he had sticky blood on his hand.
"Are you injured?" He was obviously injured, and there was blood on his arm.
"Fortunately, the bullet scratched me, but it's a little painful." Zhao Jiayan looked at Xia Lin in the dark. He had a certain degree of night vision. Looking at the worry in Xia Lin's eyes, he felt a little satisfied.
But Xia Lin is not used to this darkness.
Zhao Jiayan then said: "There is a box in the innermost corner. There is a flashlight and all the spare things in it. Go and get it.
Xia Lin immediately went to look through it, and sure enough she found a box. When she turned on the flashlight, she felt a little safer.
She found that in addition to the flashlight, there were some compressed biscuits and some small instruments she didn't recognize in the box.
"Bring the box over here, hold the flashlight, and don't touch anything else." Zhao Jiayan reminded her.
Xia Lin nodded, "Is the wound on your arm okay?" With the flashlight, she could see clearly that Zhao Jiayan's arm was indeed bruised. He was almost hit by two bullets. In addition to the bullet scratch, there was also a stone scratch. The traces should have been produced during the escape.
"It's okay." Zhao Jiayan found a syringe from the box, inserted a needle into his leg without hesitation, and then injected it.
"What are you..." Xia Lin has never seen such a fierce person.
"Tranquilizer." Zhao Jiayan said, "The blood on my body will no longer flow."
"Oh." Xia Lin nodded. Now she was even more curious about Zhao Jiayan. Why would a one-armed and strange man save her, a stranger with nothing? And when facing the pursuit of Nan Jintian's men just now, he obviously chose to protect her.
"Are you curious about me?" Now that it was quiet, Zhao Jiayan was interested in observing her eyes, and he could clearly see the curiosity and surprise in her eyes.
Xia Lin did not deny it, "I am indeed a little curious about you, that...why are you willing to save me in such a difficult environment?"
"Because I fell in love with you at first sight." Zhao Jiayan suddenly smiled and looked at her intently.
Many years later, things have changed.
They have been together for six years and separated for three years. It has been nine years since they met.
Nine years ago, when Zhao Jiayan launched a fierce pursuit of her, Xia Lin also asked: "Why are you so nice to me?"
Zhao Jiayan's answer at that time was: "Because I fell in love with you at first sight."
People who have never experienced a glance at Ten Thousand Years will not understand the excitement and familiarity that Zhao Jiayan felt when he first met Xia Lin. At that time, he felt that this woman would be deeply involved in his life.
So he wanted to get closer to her.
At that time, Xia Lin smiled shyly at his answer, and then became his girlfriend.
But now Xia Lin just stared at Zhao Jiayan in astonishment for a few seconds, and then smiled with the light of the weak flashlight, "Are you kidding me?"
She didn't realize that her current image of dirty hair and poor mental state could attract a man to fall in love with her at first sight, so the man was obviously kidding.
Zhao Jiayan looked away with some disappointment, "Just pretend I didn't say anything."
He shouldn't have gotten close to her now. What he just said was just impulsive, and he regretted saying it.
"What's the real reason? Why did you save me?" Xia Lin was still curious.
"Stop your curiosity, I won't tell you." Zhao Jiayan stopped discussing this issue with her, and his expression was firm.
"Okay." Seeing that he had made up his mind not to say anything, Xia Lin glanced at his mouth and said, "Then how long should we stay here?"
"As long as it's daylight outside, we can't get out."
"That's it." Xia Lin was not surprised by this situation. After all, she had felt it outside just now, and there were really many people trying to catch her back. "Then let's wait until dark before leaving."
Zhao Jiayan said "hmm".
"Actually, I still want to know your name. You are my benefactor. Next time I can't see you, just call 'Hello', right?" Xia Lin said.
Zhao Jiayan shook his head, "I won't tell you."
Xia Lin thought this man was so strange that he couldn't even ask for his name. He was almost a descendant of Lei Feng.
"How have you been lately?" On the one hand, Zhao Jiayan did not reveal her name to her, but on the other hand, he asked a question that only acquaintances would ask.
