Ce Changshu got off his horse and looked at Pang Miao in surprise, looking incredulous, "Why are you here? What's wrong with your eyes?"

"..." Pang Miao hesitated for a while, and replied calmly: "I was ordered to leave the imperial capital to search for books. I didn't want to encounter robbers on the way, and I was injured a little bit. I managed to escape here and was rescued by villagers and doctors. , why not rush back to the imperial capital now, for fear of delaying the errand."

"You're injured, what are you still doing with your errands?" Ce Changshu expressed extreme concern.

Pang Miao smiled helplessly, "You know it's not easy for me to wait for an errand. I'm afraid I'll lose my income and have a mother to take care of me. Is it because the history of policy orders is here because I have an errand to do?"

Chief Ce looked at him meaningfully, "Yes, I just finished an errand and planned to go back to the imperial capital. I passed by here and wanted to find some meals with fellow villagers. How about Pang Xiaoshu, we just returned to the imperial capital together. Do you think so?"

"Okay." Pang Miao responded, clenched his hands in his sleeves involuntarily, and felt a dull pain in his palm cut by the porcelain shards.

When the two returned to the village, they went to the villager's house who sent Pang Miao back to the imperial capital.Taking advantage of the time when the villagers prepared dry food for them, Ce Changshu was quite ingenious. He converted a discarded cart into a simple carriage and put on the horse he rode, so that the villagers did not need to work hard to give it away.

Pang Miao sat on a stool in the yard, listened to the chief executive's busy activities, kept a calm expression on his face, paid a little attention to the footsteps behind him, and grabbed the villagers' arms.

"Excuse me, can you do me a favor next time?"

The villager was willing to help others, and the young man he was facing was also polite and likable, so he responded straight away, "Young master, tell me."

"Help me find Dr. Ye, and ask him if he can give me one..." He lowered his voice, talked to the villagers with a smile, and laughed a couple of sick "haha" at the end, as if he was talking about something funny.

The villagers laughed and turned away in response.

When the dry food was ready, Ce Changshu also tried out his newly built simple carriage, and the two bid farewell to the villagers and headed back to Beijing.

A simple tent was set up on the cart with bamboo poles and old cloth. Pang Miao touched the texture of the cloth, and listened to the sound of Ce Changshu driving the cart for a while, then quickly took out the packaged dry food and water. sac, sprinkle all the medicine powder hidden in the other hand into the water sac.

Putting the things back in place, Pang Miao lay down again, paying attention to the movement all the time, while Ce Changshu had been concentrating on driving the car, the wheels were rolling very fast, and he was a little nauseous after a long time.

He got up and softly begged Ce Zhangshu to slow down.

The chief strategist smiled embarrassedly and said: "I was also in a hurry to return to the imperial capital, so I drove the car unconsciously, and forgot that Pang Xiaoshu was injured. I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. Eh? Pang Xiaoshu , I see how you, a frail scholar, escaped from the robbers? It must be very dangerous, right?"

Pang Miao replied absent-mindedly, "It was a coincidence that I escaped." He deliberately covered his mouth and pretended to vomit, not wanting to discuss this topic again.

Others treat him like a scholar who has no power to restrain him, and it just makes people lower their vigilance and defenses against him, so that he can escape. How can he say that he has thought of a good way, and he has some strength and ability to support his escape? Woolen cloth?

The chief strategist looked at his pale face, and hurriedly said, "School Pang, we'd better go to the tent and lie down to rest. We'll walk a little further and come down to eat dry food and rest for a while, okay?"

Pang Miao nodded and retreated into the tent.

Sure enough, the speed slowed down a lot, and the bumps were not so severe, like a huge rocking bed, being gently rocked by someone to comfort the people in it to fall asleep quickly.

It is impossible for the chief strategist to know that his heart is almost in his throat right now, how can he sleep.

At noon, Ce Changshu stopped the car, helped Pang Miao get out of the car, and took out dry food to eat.

"Where are we?" Pang Miao asked.

Ce Changshu replied: "Under the shade of the trees on the side of the road, the sun is very bright at noon, and it is very sunny."

"Oh." Pang Miao didn't say anything more, and Ce Changshu didn't mean to answer the question, so if we continued talking, there would be no results.He ate steamed buns slowly, and when he heard the sound of "gulu gulu" drinking water, he almost forgot to breathe for a moment.

"Xiaoshu Pang, drink some water too." Ce Changshu put the water bag in his palm.

"Thank you." Pang Miao raised the water bag, and suddenly heard a "pop", and called out hesitantly, "Strategic Order History?"

No one answered him.

Pang Miao put down the water bag and touched it forward, and he was indeed lying on the ground with his eyes closed, making no sound.

He was more careful, fearing that the chief strategist would cheat, so he shook his body vigorously and yelled several times.

Chief Che didn't respond.

He tore off the blindfold, but his eyes were still blurry, as if thick fog gathered in front of his eyes, lingering, and the overlapping vegetation made him feel dizzy.He bent down, looked at Ce Changshu's face carefully, deliberately pinched his arm hard, and then scratched his armpit a few times.

People are no different from being dead, there will be no pain and no sound, except that the chest still rises and falls.

Overjoyed, he picked up a branch at hand, took out a dagger from Ce Changshu, cut off the branch, and wrapped the fur wrap around one end to prevent his palm from being worn out by the rough branch.

In the end, he took most of the money from Ce Changshu, messed up the carriage, and got into the woods after identifying the direction.

After groping for a long time, he finally met a middle-aged woman who was collecting firewood. After asking the way, his heart sank a little.

really……

Ce Changshu did not take the road back to the imperial capital.

After thanking him, he planned to continue heading towards the imperial capital.The middle-aged woman looked around curiously for a while, and saw that he was inconvenient to move, so she quickly ran after him.

"Young master, are you blind? It's dangerous to walk here alone, why don't you go back with me, and I'll find someone to guide you."

The middle-aged woman threw away the firewood, and stretched out her hand attentively to hold Pang Miao's arm, but Pang Miao couldn't help but took half a step back.

"Thank you for your kindness, I can go by myself, and leave."

The middle-aged woman stopped in front of Pang Miao in two quick steps, and said with a kind smile: "Young master, your accent is from the imperial capital, right? You are not familiar with this place, and it is easy to get lost. Although there are no ferocious beasts that eat people, but If you lose your way, you will probably starve to death in the depths of the woods."

If Pang Miao hadn't seen the topography and didn't know the terrain and distribution of mountains and forests, he would have been fooled by this person.But he had just seen that the forest was not big, and it would take at least half an hour to walk straight ahead. After reaching a main road, he could walk west along the road to the official road, which led directly to Longmen Pass.

The purpose of middle-aged women's deception is self-evident.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that Pang Miao was silent, the middle-aged woman took the initiative to ask: "Who doesn't have any inconvenience when going out? Don't worry, my home is in the county town not far ahead, just a few steps away That's it. That...to be honest, as long as you tip me some money, it will be fine."

Pang Miao resolutely refused: "I can go, and I don't have any money to hire a carriage, thank you." He stopped talking to the middle-aged woman and avoided her.

The bright sunlight fell all over the ground through the gaps between the branches and leaves, and a brighter light flashed in the eyes of the middle-aged woman. She turned around and grabbed Pang Miao's arm, "Just follow me! Look at your pity!" of."

Pang Miao frowned, and shook off the middle-aged lady's claw-like hand.He couldn't reveal his identity, otherwise it would cause even greater disasters, so he continued to refuse with a strong tone: "I have already said no, and I am not pitiful."

The middle-aged woman refused to give up, and continued to arrest her. Pang Miao took advantage of the opportunity of tugging at her, and ruthlessly pushed her away.

Thanks to him practicing archery at home in order to defeat Cao Lv in hunting, his arm strength was stronger than before. The middle-aged woman was pushed back again and again by him, and her heel stumbled on the root of the tree lying on the ground, "Ouch "He fell to the ground with a sound.

Taking advantage of this gap, Pang Miao relied on the lush and continuous trees to cover his figure, and ran forward with all his strength, until he himself was tripped and rolled into the bushes to hide.

A middle-aged woman's yelling and cursing could be heard in the distance, which could not be heard clearly, and was quickly covered by the chirping of birds in the trees.

Pang Miao lay down for a while, calmed down, heard no abnormal noise in the forest, climbed out and continued on his way.

The originally estimated half-hour journey, because the eyes can't see very clearly, took a full hour to touch the main road, with pedestrians and oxen and horse-drawn carts coming and going.Pang Miao was not in a hurry to get out of the forest, so he covered his eyes again with cloth strips, and simply untied his hair tie, letting his hair hang down in a mess. It seemed that the clothes were not dirty enough, so he rolled on the ground twice, messing with the clothes. The clothes were so dusty that the original color could not be seen, and then the hem was torn into strips, and he dressed up as a beggar before groping out from the forest.

After Ce Zhangshu wakes up, he will definitely speed up his pace to find him, and he can't do without pretending to be unexpected.

Pang Miao walked along the main road, hoping to get to the official road as soon as possible.

It has been some time since he disappeared from the imperial capital, and the people arranged by Cao Lv must be looking for him too.But with his current appearance, it is as difficult as the sky to recognize each other.At Longmen Pass, the kidnappers need to disguise themselves, maybe the guards there can help.As for the others, he didn't know how much he could trust. In fact, he didn't even know Cao Lv's sphere of influence in the imperial capital. He was in a dangerous situation at the moment, and he didn't dare to be careless.

What can be done now is to work hard and persevere to the end.
