Chapter 87: The Evil of Human Nature
Seeing that the remaining soldiers on the other side had already escaped, Huang Yuchen took back his Dou Qi, sat behind him on the trunk of the tree lying in the grass, and shook the blood on the big knife. After a fight, his face did not blush and his heart was not beating, and he did not feel any more after any violent exercise. The Dou Qi was full of energy in his meridians. It was obvious that the knife and knife were full of strength, but there was no feeling of exhaustion at all. The Dou Qi seemed to have never been used, and it was still running in the meridians from time to time, and he could not feel any fatigue in his whole body.
Zhan Pengfei threw away the blood on the knife, walked towards Huang Yuchen, sat next to him, looking at the woods ahead, the enemy soldiers had disappeared, and couldn't help but smile: "I didn't expect that these enemy troops were so weak, and they had not yet killed, and they all ran away."
"It's useless to run away." Huang Yuchen put the big sword aside and whispered: "Even if he runs back, those who escape in the battle will definitely be sentenced to death. He will just die in another place."
"Hehe ." Zhan Pengfei smiled, his breath was a little messy, and he was breathing slightly at this moment, but seeing Huang Yuchen's calm and windy wind, it seemed that he had never taken action, he couldn't help but be surprised, but did not ask, but said: "These enemy troops will definitely welcome more enemies later. After this battle, the enemy did not appear immediately. Obviously, there were only so many people nearby, and the other enemy troops were probably still far away."
"Since we have revealed our traces, other enemy troops will definitely chase after us." Huang Yuchen whispered: "But these soldiers fled. If they see the main force, they will definitely reveal that there are only two of us. This is a bit troublesome." After Huang Yuchen said that, he stood up, carried the big sword on his shoulders, and rushed to Zhan Pengfei and said: "At this moment, they have run a distance. Now they chased, they should be able to touch their camp."
Seeing this, Zhan Pengfei smiled, raised his sword and said, "That's what he meant."
As soon as they finished speaking, the fighting spirits of the two men spread. They picked up their weapons and chased them all the way to the place where the enemy disappeared.
Li Zhong led a group of soldiers and walked forward quickly along the mountain stream and rock walls. Soon, he could no longer hear the sound of swords and weapons behind him, and he roughly escaped from the dangerous area.
Everyone's speed did not decrease, and they continued to run forward, deliberately hiding their breath, trying not to make any sound. They held their breath and kept moving forward.
Li Zhong had previously predicted that if he was moving at full speed, it would take about half a quarter of an hour to reach the next hiding place. This place is like the cave we had previously hidden, and is often hidden in Qingfeng Village. These places have one characteristic, that is, they are so hidden that they are not easy to be discovered by the outside world. However, if you bypass this mountain and enter the next hiding place, it is farther from Li Hui's village than the previous location.
Li Zhong remained silent and moved forward quickly. However, he was suddenly caught by a force and pressed to the ground tightly. He was already nervous, but he was suddenly pressed to the ground. He was about to struggle, but Li Hui's extremely low voice sounded in his ears: "Don't make a sound." Then he widened his eyes and shut his mouth tightly.
It was also a very short time after Li Zhong was pulled down. A sound of footsteps on the ground sounded around him. The sound of "clicking" was unaware of it. This should be an enemy passing by. From the sound, there should be no less than a hundred people. Li Zhong lay tightly on the ground, close to the rock wall, and the grass was growing beside him, covering his figure. Several soldiers behind him, including Li Hui, also lay tightly on the ground, holding their breath and waiting for the army to pass.
After a long time, the sound of military boots trampling on the ground gradually faded away. Li Hui patted Li Zhong's back gently. Li Zhong raised his head and opened the lawn in front of him. Not far away, a piece of grass had been trampled into flat ground. There were more than a hundred soldiers who had just passed by.
Li Zhong stood up, called the internal fighting spirit of crystal stone again, stepped on his legs, pressed against the rock wall, and continued to run forward. A group of soldiers followed behind him, and everyone marched quickly.
After walking for a while, he went to a low bush faintly. It was a mess outside, as if it had been searched. Li Zhong stopped, lay on the ground, looked back at Li Hui, pointed to the bushes in front, and signaled that they had arrived.
Li Hui frowned slightly and looked forward. This low shrub seemed to have been slashed by someone with a knife and an axe. A piece of branches and leaves were scattered on the ground, and there were also signs of trampling around the grass. This place must have been carefully searched. Seeing this, he gently waved back with one hand, and a figure immediately rushed out and rolled in front. Before the person stood up, he exerted force under his feet, and instantly rushed into the opposite shrub.
Li Hui signaled the others to hide in place and wait for news.
After a moment, the sergeant who had just rushed in showed his head in the bushes and waved to everyone. Seeing this, Li Hui immediately waved backwards, and everyone came out in a row and headed straight for the bushes ahead.
After passing through the dense shrubs, fumbled inside for a while, he found a crack in the rock wall. The crack was not big, and the survey could be penetrated by one person. Li Hui looked back at Li Zhong, and looked inquiring. Li Zhong nodded and indicated that it was this.
Li Hui took the lead and drilled directly from the gap. A group of soldiers behind him followed and drilled into the crack of the stone.
After entering, it suddenly became clear inside. This was a small underground cave, and I don’t know how it was formed. A few people surveyed and accommodated it here. Unlike the previous cave, there were no beds, no cabinets and other items. There were only simple weeds on the ground, and a candle was hung on the rock wall next to it. Several animal furs were still on the side, which looked a little tattered.
"This is a stall for hunting in Qingfeng Village." Li Zhong got into the crack of the rock, walked to the inside, sat on the ground, and said to Li Hui softly: "But there are not many prey nearby, and they don't come very much, so the furnishings are simple and there is no spare food." After Li Zhong said that, his stomach "gurgled". From yesterday until now, he had not entered the water. After a big battle, he was exhausted and rushed at full speed. At this moment, he was hungry and uncomfortable. At this moment, his stomach suddenly screamed, which made him a little embarrassed, and he smiled at Li Hui.
Seeing this, Li Hui took out a small package from his arms and slowly opened it. It contained a few thin cakes, which looked very dry. Li Hui broke a small piece and handed it to Li Zhong, saying, "This thing can satisfy your hunger. I'll use it a little first."
Li Zhong took the dry cake and put it in his hand. There was only a small piece. He thought to himself what kind of use it could be used for. But he thought that he was better than nothing. He opened his mouth, threw it into his mouth, chewed it a few times, and then swallowed it.
Li Hui looked at the soldiers and whispered: "I will repair here for a night, and go straight to the front camp tomorrow night." The front camp that Li Hui said was the mountain village he had hidden before. In the mountain village, more than a hundred imperial men were hiding. When he arrived at the mountain village, he would be considered to have escaped.
After Li Hui said that, the soldiers took out small packages from their arms, opened them, broke off a piece of dry cake, put them in their mouths, and then closed their eyes to rest and stopped talking.
After a piece of dry cake, Li Zhongben felt nothing was wrong, but after a moment, a huge feeling of fullness suddenly came, and he kept burping himself. The feeling of hunger disappeared instantly. He couldn't help but be surprised and looked at Li Hui with a questioning look on his face.
Li Hui put a piece of dry cake into his mouth, looked at Li Zhong, smiled, and whispered: "What I just gave you was the dry food specially prepared by the Empire for the army. Such a thin piece is enough to support the needs of the day. You just swallowed it in one bite, it would be strange if you didn't hold on at this moment." After saying that, he smiled, then sat cross-legged, closed his eyes to rest, restored his own consumption of fighting spirit, and ignored Li Zhong.
Li Zhong touched his stomach, and his stomach was already supported at this moment, and he couldn't help but feel wonderful. When he arrived at this cave, the tension in his heart disappeared a lot, but he was still worried about Huang Yuchen, not knowing what happened to him now.
Li Zhong sat cross-legged and continued to practice fighting spirit. No matter how worried he was about Huang Yuchen, he had already arrived at this cave at this moment. He couldn't help with the rest of the matter and seized time to practice. He believed that Huang Yuchen would definitely rush to Li Hui's village and meet him.
Huang Yuchen and Zhan Pengfei followed the deserter's footsteps, followed slowly, and deliberately left some traces to allow the enemy to discover it, thus creating the illusion of everyone running away in this direction.
Chasing behind the enemy, it was neither too fast nor too slow. Several enemy troops fled randomly, scared, but after a while of running, their consciousness slightly recovered. These deserters had a total of more than a dozen people, and their ideas changed at this moment. Some people thought that they would escape at the last minute and go back to the camp without death. They immediately left the team and made their own way of living. There were about four or five enemy troops who made this choice. The remaining soldiers still decided to go back to the camp. None of the soldiers had abandoned their weapons and their armor was not damaged, and they did not look like deserters. They thought that they would not be regarded as deserters when they went back to the camp and reported the enemy whereabouts. However, in this way, the few soldiers who had previously left the army became mortal enemies of the soldiers who were about to return to the camp.
The two followed the soldiers and observed silently, but found that they had caught up with the soldiers who had left the team before. Without saying a word, they raised their swords and killed several people, hid the bodies, and then put their clothes on and came to the camp.
The two looked at each other, and Zhan Pengfei smiled at Huang Yuchen. It was no surprise that he had seen such things too much, but it was the first time Huang Yuchen saw such things. Although he knew why the other soldier did this in his heart, he could not accept it from his own heart.
The comrades who were fighting side by side the moment before, but the next moment, he waved the butcher knife to the comrades and did such a thing. Huang Yuchen suddenly felt hatred in his heart, wishing he could rush forward now and kill the remaining deserters together.
Huang Yuchen's hatred rose, but Zhan Pengfei was calm and he stepped on the ground from time to time, creating the illusion of many people moving. Looking at Huang Yuchen, he saw that his face was full of hatred, and he couldn't help but smile and said softly: "Brother, don't take it seriously. There are countless such things in the army."
Huang Yuchen didn't say anything, but stared at the several enemy troops moving forward not far away, picked up the big sword, and chased after him directly.
Seeing this, Zhan Pengfei shook his head, picked up his long sword, and followed him away.
