Dark clouds obscured the sun, and the sky darkened.
Xu Bo looked at the sky and said to Yan Wushuang, "It's going to rain soon, let's find a place to hide from the rain." This rain is not small. When escaping, you must pay special attention to avoid getting sick from the rain.
At this moment, there was the sound of birds singing on the hill next door. Hearing that sound, the bird was obviously frightened.
Xu Bo looked at him, and immediately climbed onto a tall tree. As soon as he reached the top of the tree, he saw a group of people on the other hill looking in their direction.
Yan Wushuang saw Xu Bo's expression a little dignified, and hurriedly asked: "Xu Bo, what's the matter?"
"They are catching up."
Yan Wushuang's face turned pale, but soon he calmed down: "Uncle Xu, let's throw away the extra things!" Apart from the steamed bun and the water bag, he felt that other things such as ointment and oil paper could be thrown away.
Xu Bo shook his head and said, "No, they know that we have found them when they see things. Then, they will be able to judge how far we are from them." In the entire Liaodong, only Nie Hang had such a tracking method. But Nie Hang was upright in nature, and he respected Marshal Yan very much. Xu Bo believed that Nie Hang would never agree to Tong Chunlin to hunt down Yan Wushuang. Therefore, this time the people must be sent by the capital.
Knowing that there are chasing soldiers, the speed of the two is much faster than before.
As Xu Bo walked, he was observing the surroundings.
After a quarter of an hour, it was getting darker and darker. At this moment, Xu Bo discovered a small hole. The entrance of this small hole is bigger than the copper basin.
I probed it with a wooden stick and found that this small hole was only as long as an adult. .
Standing in front of the entrance of the cave, Xu Bo said towards Yan Wushuang: "There must be a tracking expert in them. If they walk at our speed, they will soon be overtaken." They have gone so far and they will consume too much physical strength. They are definitely not. The opponent of that man.
Yan Wushuang lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, Uncle Xu." If it hadn't been for him to save those people, nothing would happen.
Xu Bo shook his head and said, "I'm not sorry. Actually, I'm the fault of this. If I took you to pretend to eat meat and then went into a coma with you, I would kill those gangsters in the middle of the night. These people didn't find the same thing, just follow them. It won’t happen if we go together."
In fact, these words are just to relieve Yan Wushuang, the other party is obviously a master of criminal investigation, not comparable to the soldiers at the gate of the city. Asking Yan Wushuang to meet this person will reveal his identity in all likelihood.
Now it's a race against time, Xu Bo is not too nonsense: "You go in, I will seal the hole."
Yan Wushuang grabbed Xu Bo's arm and held on.
Xu Bo broke off his hand and gave Yan Wushuang the food on his body and a dagger seized from the bandit.
Seeing Yan Wushuang motionless, Xu Bo said coldly: "You can't die, otherwise no one will wash him away from the marshal's grievances. Quickly, there is no time to delay."
With red eyes, Yan Wushuang lay on the ground and slowly poured into the hole. This hole is really small, so it can only accommodate Yan Wushuang alone.
Uncle Xu found stones and piled up the entrance of the cave. He piled up rocks and said, "When you hear the movement, close your eyes and don't look outside. People like them are very sensitive. If you look at them, they will notice."
After stacking the hole, Xu Bo said to Yan Wushuang, "Master, you will rely on yourself for the next part of the journey. Master, you must live no matter what difficulties you encounter. Only by living can you get revenge."
Yan Wushuang choked up and said, "Uncle Xu..."
Xu Bang said: "A man bleeds without tears. From now on, don't shed tears at will. Only useless men will cry when something happens."
"Yes." He was clearly crying when he said this word. He doesn't regret saving those people, but he regrets that he hurt Xu Bo.
"Remember, go to the Yongsheng Firm in Spring City to find their big shopkeeper Tang Xingping." The opponent is a master, and Xu Bo is not sure that he can get rid of him. What he can do is to take this person as far as possible to ensure Yan Wushuang's safety.
Yan Wushuang wiped his tears and said, "Uncle Xu, you must live, I am waiting for you in Spring City."
Uncle Xu smiled and nodded, "Okay."
Master, take care of yourself. "After saying this, Xu Bo turned and left.
Without Yan Wushuang following, Xu Bo was very fast. In a blink of an eye, there is no figure in sight.
Xiang Hongda walked along the road that Xu Bo and Yan Wushuang stepped on, and walked into the valley, but stopped.
Lian Guo said, "Master Xiang, what's the matter?"
Xiang Hongda pointed to a rag on the thorns not far away: "They should have left this."
Lian Guo took the broken steps and said, "Master Xiang, it seems that they are just ahead."
Xiang Hongda frowned.
"What's the matter, Master Xiang? Is there something wrong?" There are already clues, which is like a reassurance for him.
Xiang Hongda said: "With so many of us, we will make a lot of noise wherever we go."
Even Guo didn't understand the meaning of these words.
Xiang Hongda said: "They are far away from us." If not, the other party must have found them.
"Master Xiang, then we will catch up quickly." He wished to catch Yan Wushuang now.
After a few steps, it rained heavily. The rain was too heavy, and they didn't bring rain gear, and they soon got wet all over.
The rain was too heavy and blocked the route. Even Guo didn't see clearly and fell to the ground. He got up and said to Xiang Hongda, "Master Xiang, let's take shelter from the rain!" If he stepped on the air and fell down the mountain, he would be dead. People have to chase, but one's own life is also very important.
Xiang Hongda glanced at Lian Guo and said, "They are on the way, we are sheltering from the rain, and the distance will become longer and longer." It is also possible to catch people early and complete the task to return to the capital.
However, Xiang Hongda was not so unkind. Looking at the muddy Lian Guo, he said, "You stay and shelter from the rain!" The main reason is that it is useless for Guo to follow, and it doesn't matter whether he follows or not.
After speaking, Xiang Hongda continued to chase forward under the heavy rain with his confidant.
Lian Guo regretted his life, and he was cold and hungry at this time, so he took his two subordinates to find a place to shelter from the rain.
Xu Bo's reaction was completely different from that of Xiang Hongda and others. He touched the rain on his face, looked up at the sky and smiled: "God, it seems that you can't bear to watch the Yan family's queen." The heavy rain fell too timely. The rain falling from the heights would wash away the footprints he and Yan Wushuang had stepped on. Although the road they stepped on could not eliminate the traces, it could buy them a lot of time.
After laughing, Bo Xu continued to move forward. At this time, he did not spare any energy. So the speed is twice as fast as before.
When I walked to a place, I saw very good growing vines. Xu Bo moved his heart, jumped into the vine and cut a lot of vines.
The small hole where Yan Wushuang hid was higher than the flat ground, so he didn't need to get caught in the rain. But at this time, he felt uncomfortable. It's nothing more than dragging the legs back, and it even hurts the people around him. For the first time, Yan Wushuang knew that he was actually a burden.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard footsteps. These people even caught up in the rain. The enchanting concubine and the Song family brothers really wanted to kill their Yan family.
Soon, the sound of footsteps arrived. Thinking of Xu Bo's words, Yan Wushuang didn't dare to look out, but quickly closed his eyes.
Xiang Hongda didn't notice the strangeness, and quickly walked past the cave with a group of people.
Even so, Yan Wushuang still didn't dare to get up because he wasn't sure whether this group of people would come back.
There is luminous at night, and there will be no noise when he walks alone. With so many people on the other side, he could easily hear the sound. In this way, it is safer.
It rained heavily and it lasted more than three quarters of an hour.
After the rain stopped, Xu Bo did not continue to move forward. Instead, he walked to the edge of the steep cliff and sat down to pick up the vines just cut.
Xiang Hongda chased along the road, originally chasing very smoothly. But chasing after chasing, there is no way.
It is impossible for people to fly away out of thin air, they must have taken other paths. Xiang Hongda immediately said, "Search back and see what's wrong?"
After walking back less than two quarters of an hour, I found the vines that had just been touched.
Xiang Hongda's complexion changed slightly, and he turned back with a group of people. Go to the end of the road and let those who follow you search. Finally, they found a drooping vine on a tree on the edge of the cliff.
Yin Tu said with some annoyance: "My lord, we don't have ropes."
"They can use vines, and so can we." Such a thick vine is enough for them.
Before the vine picked up the person, even Guo chased him up: "Master Xiang, who are you?"
Pointing to the bottom of the cliff, Xiang Hongda said, "They went down here."
Lian Guo glanced down and felt dizzy, and quickly took two steps back: "I'm joking, your lord, why do you want to climb the cliff if you don't take a good road."
Yin Tu said: "They didn't want us to find the trace, so they used this roundabout method."
Xiang Hongda had a meal when he heard this, and said, "Yin Tu, you can search back with someone."
Lian Guo was a little puzzled.
Xiang Hongda said: "Perhaps this person is using the strategy of adjusting the tiger away from the mountain." He has encountered such things many times.
Lian Guo said, "I walked this way and found nothing unusual."
"If he hides in a cave or a deep pit, you won't find him." Sending someone back to search is just in case. But the two are really separated, even if they don't catch him now, they don't worry.
Yan Wushuang is just a twelve-year-old child. Without that person to protect him, it would be easy to catch him.
Xiang Hongda and Lian Guo walked in front of the cave one after another, but Yan Wushuang stayed in the small hole and dared not move. He was afraid to wait until he moved to make a noise, and he happened to be discovered.
As he was thinking about it, he saw a spider crawling to the pile of rocks and weaving a web. Yan Wushuang was thinking how to drive away the spider, when he heard footsteps again.
Yan Wushuang lay down and didn't dare to move, his eyes closed.
