Chapter 613 Encounter on a Narrow Road
After crying for a while, Zi'an went on the road to look for it.
She is not familiar with the terrain of Wolf's Tail Mountain, but she walked through it twice when collecting herbs before, and she can roughly tell the direction. In addition, Qin Zhou and her analyzed the terrain, so she chose a remote road to find and escape. , I will never take the Kangzhuang Avenue, I only hope that there will be a hiding place in a remote path or a cave in a mountain stream.
Zian didn't dare to stop along the way. Holding the scar rope in her hand, she only had one thought in her heart, that she must find them.
In some places, there are traces of fighting, and there is blood on the side of the road. There are about four or five traces of this kind of fighting.
After walking for more than an hour, she turned over two hills, and when she looked at the opposite hill, there seemed to be a figure floating.
She hid behind the big tree vigilantly, and looked over secretly. Yes, there were indeed many people over there, all dressed in imperial army uniforms, holding long swords in their hands, looking for them in the mountains.
Zi'an looked at them with bloodshot eyes, wishing he could rush over and kill them all.
However, there are many people on the other side, she is injured, and the scar is not a panacea.
Zian tried his best to calm down his anger and analyzed the situation.
They are still looking, which means the three hundred people are still safe.
However, someone died under the long sword on the hillside, which proved that when they fled, the forbidden army immediately caught up with them. There were many old, weak and disabled soldiers along the way, so why didn't the forbidden army catch up? Why was no body found later?
Zi'an analyzed again and again, thinking that Qin Zhou's people might send people to resist and let the villagers escape. The traces of fighting they saw along the way can prove this.
If there was any resistance, then the three hundred people should have been dispersed, and they should not be hiding far away. The forbidden army searched the opposite hill, and probably found that they were hiding on the opposite hill.
Zi'an was secretly anxious, but he must hide carefully, at least until Qin Zhou's people came.
Zi'an checked with his eyes, and now he saw about 200 people, all of whom were well-trained forbidden troops, but Zi'an felt that this was not all, and the forbidden troops should also be dispersed to chase them.
To deal with 6,000 people, Zian deduced that the forbidden army should at least dispatch about 1,000 people.
Because it was a sneak attack while it was dark, and they set fire again, these thousand people were enough.
Returning from Langwei Mountain to dispatch troops, calculated at the speed of running a dead horse, it would take three hours to go back and forth.
Now that more than an hour has passed, at least, they still have to hold on for about an hour.
I just hope that Qin Zhou will be fast, fast, fast!
Zi'an walked cautiously, there was a distance from the mountain on the opposite side, and Zi'an walked away all the way, but it was not eye-catching.
Suddenly, a long sword on the right pointed at her, and it was placed on her neck in an instant, accompanied by a sharp shout, "Stop, turn your head!"
Zi'an yelled inwardly that it was not good, just now he just walked over cautiously and forgot to be on guard, unexpectedly there was an ambush here.
She turned her head and saw two guards pointing at her with long swords. They looked her up and down, saw the blood on her body, and said coldly, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
They had never met Zi'an before, so they didn't know Zi'an's identity for a while.
Zi'an looked very panicked, and said: "If you go back to Master Jun, the little woman is a villager at the foot of the mountain. The little woman's husband went up the mountain to cut firewood yesterday, but he hasn't returned yet. The little woman was worried, so she came up to look for her husband."
"The woman at the foot of the mountain?" The two imperial guards looked at her and saw that her hair was disheveled and her clothes were torn. Although she was in a state of embarrassment, she couldn't hide her beauty. The clothes were ordinary clothes, but they were also very decent.
Just holding a rope in his hand, this rope is supposed to be used for binding firewood.
"Where did the blood on your body come from?"
Zi'an said bitterly: "Today is the birthday of the little lady's husband, so the little lady killed a chicken at home, unexpectedly, the chicken cut its throat, but jumped on the little woman, so the little lady looks good I don’t want to change my clothes, I save them for my husband’s birthday celebration.”
"Chicken blood?" The forbidden soldier stepped forward and sniffed it, because the blood was dry, and although the smell of blood was strong along the way, he couldn't tell whether it was human blood or chicken blood.
"What village below the mountain are you from?" the shorter guard asked coldly.
"The villain is from Datong Village, and my husband's surname is Chen." Zi'an looked very flustered, and looked around, "Mr. Jun, what are you looking for here? Can you see my husband? He is about as tall as you, Mr. Jun, and looks as tall as you, Mr. Jun." Very strong, with dark skin."
Zi'an's scene is very good, plus she just cried a while ago, her eyes are red and swollen, and she is holding a rough rope in her hand, she really looks like a village woman who failed to find her husband.
The two didn't intend to kill the villagers at the bottom of the mountain, because if the villagers at the bottom of the mountain died here, they would definitely go to the government to pull out the radish and bring out the mud, so as not to spread the news about Langwei Mountain.
The two interrogated Zi'an for a while, and seeing that they couldn't find any suspicious signs, they sent her away, "You go, there are bandits here, you go back and tell the villagers not to go up the mountain, so as not to encounter accidents."
Zi'an was shocked, "The bandit? My God, will my husband be killed by the bandit? The little lady must hurry to find him!"
After speaking, he turned around and left.
It's not difficult to kill these two people here, but once you do this, it will definitely alarm the people on the opposite side, and it's not suitable to do it if you are injured and can't run far.
Just as Zian walked a few steps, he heard the forbidden soldier yell again, "Stop!"
Zi'an's body was stiff, his hand clenched the scar rope, and he slowly turned to look at the forbidden army.
The guard said: "Don't go this way."
He pointed to the path on the right, "You can go down the mountain from here."
Zian was stunned for a moment, there is a small road here, but he came here to collect herbs before, Ah Jing said that the end of this road is a cliff.
The two stared at Zian, their eyes flickering.
Zi'an immediately knew that these two people were tempting her, because if she was a villager nearby, she must know that this road would not go down the mountain.
They didn't dare to kill the villagers, but they were also afraid that the people in Muzhai would be released. As long as there were still people alive in Muzhai, the massacre of the village would not be covered up.
Zian shook his head, and said honestly: "Master Jun, don't go this way, there is a cliff at the end of this place, and there are poisonous snakes!"
poisonous snake...
Zian suddenly had an idea in his mind, but he had to leave here first.
The two imperial guards had no doubts after hearing what Zian said. Those villagers in Muzhai fled to Langwei Mountain. The local villagers are very familiar with the terrain in the mountains.
Naturally, the two of them did not expect that the person in front of them was the Regent Princess Xia Zi'an, and she brought people here to collect medicine.
"Really? Then you go, go back the same way."
You can go down the mountain after crossing the col here, without going through Langwei Mountain. Thinking about it, she didn't come from Langwei Mountain, otherwise, she would have died of fright when she saw that scene.
The forbidden soldier thought so, but looked at Zi'an again, Zi'an had already turned and left, but her skirt was impressively stained with ashes.
