The Concubine of Crossing

Fortunately, there was only such a small area where they fought. Li Xiao glanced for a while, and finally found a medicine bag under the trunk of a dead tree, and quickly took out the healing medicine and sprinkled it on Liu Huwei.

This medicinal powder is indeed a good thing. No matter how big the wound is, after spraying the medicinal powder, the blood will quickly coagulate.Seeing that Liu Huwei finally stopped bleeding, Li Xiao hurriedly sprinkled some on himself, and rushed to deal with the dead leaves on the ground.

The weather has been sunny for such a long time, and the leaves have long since dried up. After a while, a small area has been burned. If it is allowed to burn like this, it is unknown how many forests will be burned.

Li Xiao hurriedly planed away the unburned leaves, but unfortunately the leaves burned too fast. When he planed one side, the other side immediately burst into flames, and finally kicked quickly with his feet.

Liu Huwei couldn't sit still anymore, and came to help with the wounds all over his body. At this time, Li Xiao couldn't stop him. If the place really burned, it was really impossible for the two of them to escape without even a horse now. go out.

Before the fire spread, they cleared away the surrounding leaves, and Li Xiao pried up the soil and buried the burning ones. Finally, the fire was controlled and did not continue to spread.

Liu Huwei was so tired that he lay motionless on the ground. The wound on his body that had finally stopped bleeding opened again, and a small piece was soaked under his body.

Li Xiao was also very tired, but he still managed to come over and give him medicine. Liu Huwei turned his head and showed him an ugly smile. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to say it.

Li Xiao leaned against the tree trunk next to him to rest, "You can rest for a while, I will guard."

The smell of blood is all around, and it is actually very dangerous to stay where you are.

However, both of them are in this state, and they can't move forward in this darkness.Even because of the bloody smell on their bodies, they may be easier to become moving targets.

In contrast, the wolves in this area have been scared away by them. It is said that wild beasts have their own sense of territory. There are already wolves here, and the possibility of other ferocious beasts is smaller.

Therefore, instead of encountering other dangers in the dark, waiting in place can give them a little rest time, and the burning torches can also help disperse some wild beasts.

So Li Xiao didn't plan to leave, so he just sat there and waited for dawn.Even because he was so hungry, he still had the appetite to eat.

Fortunately, they were not too unlucky, and nothing happened this night.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Li Xiao simply got up and carried Guard Liu on his back, and continued on his way.

Yesterday he stabbed County Magistrate Yu badly with a sword. Even if he didn't die, he probably wouldn't be much better off. In addition to the money and food, they would have left long ago. As long as County Magistrate Yu's head is not broken, he should not be in the mood to chase him now. Otherwise, they wouldn't stop chasing after half a day.

Of course, it's not guaranteed that County Magistrate Qi Yu insisted on having them chase them because of his hatred for him with that sword, so Li Xiao started to walk away with Liu Huwei on his back as soon as he could see the road.

I don't know if it's because the road is too sideways, or their luck is not very good. They encountered hungry beasts with green eyes several times during the day. Fortunately, they didn't come in groups. The blood of the beast can be used as a water source to quench the thirst of the two.

Even without a horse for transportation, he walked with a man on his back for a day, but he couldn't cover a long distance.

Seeing that the weather was getting late, he had to find a place to spend the night now, and in order not to repeat yesterday's tragedy, he had to find a place that could withstand the danger this time.

After two days and one night without rest, Li Xiao was so energetic that he couldn't take it anymore, and his walking pace became heavier and heavier.

Liu Huwei was carried on his back, and he was dizzy. He kept waking up and sleeping, almost in a semi-consciousness.

The wound medicine on Li Xiao's body is almost used up, and in this situation, it is estimated that it is useless to use only the wound medicine.

Li Xiao couldn't help being a little anxious. Although they had made an appointment to meet, it was still a day's journey away from Shacheng. Now they had to walk, and they would have to walk for several days.

Li Xiao searched for a long time before he found an area with many rocks. Anyway, he is strong and there is no shelter around, so he built one by himself.

It doesn't matter if the place is small, as long as you can stay overnight safely.

Li Xiao had just finished building the small stone cave, and was about to walk around to see if he could catch prey, when he felt something ringing in his ears.

Because he had been keeping an eye out for his prey, his ears were kept high, and the sound naturally entered his ears immediately.

As Li Xiao listened, he always felt that the sound was like footsteps, horse hoofs, and the sound of carriage wheels, because he had heard it almost every day for the past few months, so even though the sound was still far away, he could still hear it. A clue.

At first I thought it was the people from Shacheng who were chasing them, but soon realized that something was wrong. The people from Shacheng really wanted to chase them, and they shouldn't have brought the carriage.

It can't be Luo Laibao and the others, because all the food they pulled was detained in Shacheng.

So, these people probably just passed by here.

Thinking of this, Li Xiao was overjoyed. If this group of people were easy to talk to, he might as well borrow a carriage to let Guard Liu sit for a while. Behind the crowd, there is always less danger.

Thinking of this, Li Xiao began to approach the place where he heard the sound, and then he saw a long line, obviously in the military style, and the flag fluttering in the wind was familiar to him, Li Xiao narrowed his eyes and thought After a while, my eyes widened suddenly, and there was only one thought in my mind for a moment: They were saved!

When Liu Huwei woke up, he heard the familiar sound of wheels rolling in his ears. He opened his eyes and saw Li Xiao sleeping on the side. The sun shone on his face through the window, making that fair face look even more It was only then that he realized that the tattered and blood-stained clothes on the two of them had disappeared, and they had changed into simple linen clothes.

Normally, he would have looked down upon it, but after experiencing the stinky, dry and tattered bloody clothes, the clothes made him feel very comfortable now.

Liu Huwei wanted to sit up, but because of the injuries involved, he gasped in pain.

It was because of this noise that Li Xiao opened his eyes suddenly, seeing that Liu Huwei woke up, his face became more happy, and he hurried over to help him, "Are you awake? Do you feel better?"

There was warmth in Liu Huwei's eyes, "I'm fine." Then he asked, "Where are we?"

Hearing his question, the smile in Li Xiao's eyes widened, "We are in King Zhenjiang's convoy."

Liu Huwei was obviously stunned, with a puzzled expression on his face, "Why did King Zhenjiang appear here?"

Seeing Liu Huwei's frowning, Li Xiao knew that he must have been thinking too much, so his smile narrowed slightly, and he said, "The king of Zhenjiang was ordered to rescue the disaster."

Liu Huwei was startled, and immediately knew that he was thinking wrong, and his old face flushed for a while.

Li Xiao smiled, and didn't hold on to this topic, but said, "They are going in a different direction from us, so we just missed them. Originally, they planned to go to Shacheng... Now they have sent someone to send them to us. Let's go to Liucheng."

When Liu Huwei heard this, gratitude finally appeared in his eyes, because the place where they agreed to meet with Qian Yaoliang was precisely Liucheng.

Liu Huwei opened the curtain of the car, and saw that besides the coachman driving the carriage, there was a group of soldiers following him, apparently to protect their safety.

Liu Huwei was a little puzzled. It stands to reason that he didn't really have a big face, so the people of King Zhenjiang sent him off in person.

Then he remembered a rumor circulating in Kyoto that the Prince of Zhenjiang had a good personal relationship with a businessman who opened a restaurant.

Liu Huwei still remembered that Li Xiao had mentioned before that he owned a restaurant in the capital. Could it be that he was the owner of the restaurant who had a good relationship with Prince Zhenjiang?

Liu Huwei felt that this guess was reliable, but since Li Xiao didn't say anything, he didn't mention it anymore, but asked, "I don't know how long it will take to arrive?"

Li Xiao looked at the sun in the sky, "I heard it will arrive at noon."

At this moment, there was a rush of horseshoes in front of them, and the squad leader hurriedly pulled his men aside, and the group of people watched the large group of well-trained soldiers pass by them.

Suddenly, Liu Huwei yelled, "Lord Qian!"

The people who rode forward immediately left and stopped, and then the other soldiers also stopped. Qian Yaoliang turned his horse's head, and when he saw the two of them, he was surprised and happy, "Great, you are all fine." , It's really beautiful."

Li Xiao and Liu Huwei were also very excited when they saw Qian Yaoliang appearing here.Almost subconsciously, Li Xiao turned his head and looked around, but after looking around, he couldn't see the shadow of his man.Immediately felt a little disappointed, God knows how much he misses Noble now.

At this time, Liu Huwei was reporting to Qian Yaoliang what had happened in Shacheng, Qian Yaoliang's face became more serious as he listened, and Li Xiao silently closed his mouth about to ask.

After listening to Liu Huwei, Qian Yaoliang's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. Seeing that the faces of both of them were very pale, he slowed down his tone again, "You will rest in Liucheng first, and the rest of the conversation Just give it to us."

Liu Huwei immediately lowered his head in shame. As a guard, when the adults needed him most, he couldn't help him at all.

Qian asked for food but patted him on the shoulder, "You have done well enough." After confirming Shacheng's wolfish ambitions and the people's stubbornness, they would not have any hesitation when they made a move.

It wasn't until after listening to them that Li Xiao couldn't wait to ask, "My lord, what about Laibao and the others?"

Qian Yaoliang suddenly laughed, "They are waiting for you in Liucheng! Originally, your family Laibao insisted on coming, or I said that I was afraid that you would miss you if you took a different path, and he was afraid that he would miss you, so he didn't come with you." .”

Just hearing that name mentioned by others, he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth and nodded repeatedly, "Well, thank you, sir!"

A few people said a few more words, and they are ready to go on the road if they need money and food. He came to Liucheng to find people. Now that Li Xiao and Liu Huwei are safe, he has no worries.

Especially when I heard that the king of Zhenjiang had also gone to Shacheng, if he didn't go there quickly, he might have finished fighting, so naturally he had to hurry up.

Li Xiao and Liu Huwei looked at the endless marching team, and both felt that the dust was about to settle.
