Chapter 52
"Walk!"
"Want to leave? It's not that easy!"
Almost as soon as Xie Zhan stepped out of the cell and saw the green outside, someone was chasing him out from behind!
Wenbei immediately rushed out from hiding with his men and got into a fight with the jailers.
At the same time, everyone was led over by Xie Zhan, with only one person guarding Mingxiu.
She took out the dagger she had hidden in her hand for a long time and stabbed the man next to her in the shoulder.
The stabbing was so clever that the man's right hand was temporarily unable to use force.
Good times!
Mingxiu's eyes lit up and she quickly ran in the opposite direction to where Xie Zhan was.
In order to save trouble, these jailers did not take him into the cell at all, but directly pushed her down not far from the window at the back of the cell, not without the intention of missing a few people to get a piece of the pie.
This was very convenient for Mingxiu. If she wanted to escape, she didn't need to rush out of the cell over many obstacles, she just had to keep rushing forward.
There were dense bushes not far away, and the field of view was not wide. She didn't even have to run too far, she could easily disappear from the guard's sight by lying down and moving forward.
But nine times out of ten, life is not as it should be. She did disappear from the sight of those who were chasing her. Unfortunately, Wenbei also took a fancy to this terrain and quickly pulled Xie Zhan and ran there.
Pushing Xie Zhan down into the bushes and signaling him to run quickly, he had prepared a stand-in wearing the same clothes as Xie Zhan, and now it became the key to attracting the perspective!
As soon as Mingxiu left the bush and wanted to sneak away without anyone noticing, she saw a large group of people dressed as jailers coming. Her heart skipped a beat. Could it be that Wenbei's plan failed and now Xie Zhan was captured again?
Everyone came to arrest her?
She wasn't sure and didn't dare to make too much noise, so she could only move back and forth little by little among the dense trees.
"How did you..."
Suddenly, two people appeared from not far away. Mingxiu was startled at first, and couldn't help but be surprised after seeing who they were.
But before she finished speaking, her mouth was tightly covered.
"Don't make a sound, we haven't gone far yet!"
Mingxiu nodded quickly, just to ask him to take his hand away quickly.
"Bah!"
This person just crawled forward! Her hands were covered with dirt. You didn't need to think about it to know that her face must be as dirty as a tabby cat.
Wouldn't it be better if you asked her not to speak and just make gestures? Don't you know how dirty you are now?
Xie Zhan was a little embarrassed, he was indeed reckless.
But thinking about the soft touch in my hand just now, my heart couldn't help but move.
At this time, he noticed the dagger tightly clutched in Mingxiu's hand and the blood drops accidentally splashed on her body, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
"Are you here to save me too?"
Just as Mingxiu was about to say something, Ye Ziming's expression suddenly changed.
"Here we come." He mouthed.
Xie Zhan's heart skipped a beat, knowing that maybe Wenbei's stand-in had been discovered!
At this moment, Mingxiu seemed to have thought of something and pulled Xie Zhan quickly towards the north.
After all, she is not a martial artist. Even though the woman is light, Mingxiu still makes a lot of noise when she moves around. Even if the ground is full of weeds and branches, there is no guarantee that their location will not be exposed. In desperation, Xie Zhan directly picks him up.
In arms.
"Point me in the direction." Xie Zhan said against her ear.
This was an expedient measure, Mingxiu did not break away, and in fact she didn't think it was anything.
Without any more nonsense, she quickly pointed out the destination and watched Xie Zhan and Ye Ziming run over quickly.
It was a small tree hole. It was difficult to cover the bodies of three adults, but you could still get in if you squeezed.
Escape was the most important thing now, and they didn't care about anything. Xie Zhan hugged Mingxiu and quickly jumped into the tree hole, while Ye Ziming stayed close to Xie Zhan on the outside to cover the vines.
Her breath was filled with the smell of men, and Mingxiu was a little uncomfortable with it.
It's not that I'm shy or anything, it's just...
Xie Zhan hadn't taken a shower in the past few days, and the smell in the cell was bad. In addition, Ye Ziming hadn't washed himself in an unknown amount of time, so the smell in the tree hole was... hard to describe.
Mingxiu deeply felt that if the jailers had police dogs, hiding here would be the same as being exposed.
Fortunately, dog training abilities were not very developed at this time.
"How do you know this place?"
Compared to Mingxiu's openness, Xie Zhan seems much more coy.
After all, he was a man from the feudal era, and this was an era where he would marry a woman if he touched her hand. Even though the restrictions on women in the Northern Desert were not as strict as those in the Southern Dynasties, Xie Zhan had never experienced what they were doing now.
Mingxiu sneered, "I just found it when I was kidnapped."
How else could she explain it? It couldn't be said that she understood the habits of this kind of tree.
Fortunately, this time her theoretical knowledge was correct.
My teacher once said that if a large tree like this is hugged by dozens of people and has long-leafed vines growing on it, there will probably be tree holes because part of the tree roots are occupied by vines and small insects.
Although Xie Zhan had noticed something strange about her, Mingxiu still didn't want to reveal anything more unusual to him.
But she didn't know that sometimes lying would arouse people's suspicion.
This goes even further than revealing a difference.
However, Xie Zhan didn't suspect anything at this time. He just assumed that Wenbei and Mingxiu appeared from hiding.
In fact, he was vaguely sorry for Mingxiu. When Wenbei and Mingxiu both appeared, thinking about his opportunity to escape, Xie Zhan roughly guessed Wenbei's plan.
For women, even if they are not actually violated, just having such a danger is enough to destroy a person.
Even if he has confidence in the people around him and knows that they will not go out and ruin Mingxiu's reputation by talking nonsense, the harm caused to her is real.
The three of them stood stiffly in the tree hole for who knows how long, not daring to move in order to avoid being discovered. It wasn't until Mingxiu's body completely stiffened and she lost consciousness that they heard Ye Ziming say: "Your people are here."
This was obviously said to Xie Zhan.
As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Bei's voice came.
"master!"
Xie Zhan, who has been following his subordinates for many years, naturally couldn't have heard it wrong.
After moving for a while, he signaled to Ye Ziming that he could go out.
Wenbei breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xie Zhan was intact.
He knelt on one knee in front of Xie Zhan, "I came here late and made my master suffer. Please punish me."
To trace Xie Zhan's traces and to mobilize manpower to find a way to rescue him, Wenbei's actions were not too slow.
But even so, Xie Zhan was locked up for five days.
Ever since Xie Zhan appeared in front of him, the task of protecting his master had been handed over to Wenbei, but Xie Zhan was still arrested. To a certain extent, it was his dereliction of duty.
But that's not what Xie Zhan was angry about.
