Dongbing City, northern suburbs.
On a small hill, a figure was moving forward with great difficulty.
He was carrying a person on his back, and his clothes were soaked in blood. It was hard to tell whether it was his blood or someone else's.
In order to escape the Yamaguchi-gumi's pursuit, Chu Yuntian didn't dare to take the main road. He even threw away his mobile phone to prevent GPS positioning and gateway address query.
Until now, he has not dared to call Ye Wenli.
Taking the main road would definitely not work. The Yamaguchi-gumi would definitely conduct a siege and interception of important transportation hubs. If he was caught, he would definitely be dead. So far, there is only one way to return to China.
Smuggling.
This is the most dangerous and safest way.
Taihe had woken up at some point. Ikeda Kazuki's dying counterattack almost cost him his life. Even now he was still breathless when speaking, and his chest was rising and falling like a broken fan.
"Mr. Chu, where are we? Are we safe?"
"We will be safe soon. Don't worry. Ikeda and Shu are dead. No one can pose a threat to us anymore."
Chu Yuntian felt a little bitter in his heart. Rather than saying this to comfort Taihe, it was more like saying this to comfort himself. Although the recovery fluid can heal external injuries, it has no effect on mental strength.
Frankly speaking, he needs rest and sleep.
But he... couldn't stop.
Taihe looked up and saw the endless hills under the moonlight. Clusters of short trees hid the figures of the two of them. No human figures could be seen here.
But it also reflects from the side that... they are not out of danger yet.
"Mr. Chu, don't waste your time. Put me down and go alone."
As Taihe was talking, Chu Yuntian finally couldn't hold on any longer, his eyelids were fighting, and he finally sat down on the ground. He grinned, not even looking at Taihe, "Do you think this is possible?"
Taihe smiled bitterly, "But Mr. Chu, if this goes on, both of us might end up in trouble. You are younger than me, and your potential is much greater than mine. I am already an old man, and even if I get out alive, I won't be able to make any big waves, and you don't..."
Before he finished speaking, Chu Yuntian waved his hand to interrupt Taihe, "Hold on a little longer, we should still be some distance away from the ferry, but as long as we keep going west, there shouldn't be any problem. No matter how powerful the Japanese devils are, they can't conduct a carpet search of a place like this."
"But what about Ye Wenli and the others? What about the people we brought with us? Mr. Chu, I am most worried about them, not us."
Speaking of this, Chu Yuntian's heart sank.
Yes, Ikeda Kazuki is dead, they have already fled to the mountains, and it would be difficult for the Yamaguchi-gumi to catch him even if they have all the means. But what about the people that Ye Wenli brought with her? They are his most loyal and elite brothers.
The most crucial point is that the strongest person in the center is Tong Zhan. Although he has given Ye Wenli full command, Tong Zhan is a brave man who will splatter blood in five steps when he gets angry...
Both of them were silent, but in this situation, no one could do anything. The only way was for Chu Yuntian to get out of trouble as soon as possible, so that he could help Ye Wenli and the others.
As he was talking, the moonlight in the distance became brighter and brighter, and in an instant, the ground in the distance was illuminated as bright as day. Chu Yuntian was stunned at first, and his face changed.
"Not good, search for helicopters."
As soon as the words fell, the strong humming sound of the propeller and engine reached their ears. Judging from the volume of the sound, the helicopter was not too far away from them.
"Go!"
Chu Yuntian said this and ran away.
"Mr. Chu, please leave quickly."
Chu Yuntian turned around and saw Taihe sitting there motionless like an old monk in meditation. He couldn't help but get anxious and grabbed his wrist, "What are you doing? Are you looking for death by staying here?"
Taihe smiled bitterly, "Mr. Chu, I really can't do it anymore. My injuries are too severe and have damaged my internal organs. I can't walk anymore. You will only be a burden if you carry me with you. You should leave quickly. I will stay here to distract their attention."
After the incident at Taiji Gate, Taihe had already regarded Chu Yuntian as his backbone and hope, and now he was unwilling to stand up no matter what. Chu Yuntian also did not dare to drag him hard, because with his current injuries, he might fall directly to the ground if he exerted force.
In desperation, Chu Yuntian finally gritted his teeth and spent another 20,000 gold coins from the system to exchange for a bottle of recovery fluid.
It's not that he was unwilling to spend the 20,000 gold coins on Taihe, but he instinctively felt that he should keep some trump cards. This bottle of recovery fluid might be the key to his turnaround at a critical moment.
"Drink it."
When Taihe saw Chu Yuntian handing him something, he didn't ask what it was, and drank it all in one gulp. After the recovery liquid entered his body, a strong vitality quickly spread throughout his limbs and bones. Afterwards, Taihe could clearly feel that his injuries were recovering rapidly.
Although he had already witnessed many of Chu Yuntian's magical methods, Taihe was still shocked by the powerful effect of the recovery fluid at this time, and said in a daze, "What a wonderful treasure this is."
"What are you talking about? Let's go." Chu Yuntian had no more strength left in his hands and directly dragged Taihe up from the ground. Taihe, who had regained his strength, fully displayed his powerful inner strength. At first, Chu Yuntian was pulling Taihe, but later, Taihe dragged Chu Yuntian and walked briskly.
Not long after the two of them left, the place where they were just standing was swept by the searchlight of a helicopter. Not only that, behind the leading helicopter, there were dozens of helicopters following closely.
The Yamaguchi-gumi actually mobilized the military.
It is impossible for the police to dispatch dozens of helicopters. It must be the top military figures who were able to do so.
Following the helicopter, the army began to move into the mountainous area like a tide. The searchlights above their heads illuminated the area where they were heading as if it were daytime.
It looked like they were actually planning to conduct a carpet search.
They didn't know how long they had been running, but Taihe and Chu Yuntian both felt their internal energy decreasing, as if all the strength in their bodies had been drained away. Finally, Chu Yuntian sat down.
"No, I can't run anymore. We can't run like this anymore. We are human. How can a human run faster than a helicopter? If we keep running, we will die of exhaustion."
Even if they could keep running, the helicopters would be followed by the army's blanket search, and by then the two men, exhausted, would be like fish on the chopping board - at the mercy of others. (To be continued)
