Chapter 13 Escape
Miao Yi smiled bitterly, "I only picked two plants."
Yan Beihong couldn't help but stand in awe, when he first broke up with Miao Yi inside, he still thought that Miao Yi was impure in his heart, and was playing a trick on himself, that's why he didn't bother to leave, and only now did he realize that he was being petty in his heart, but it's hard for him to do the same as Miao Yi, and give up all the chances that he got by fighting for his life, to his younger siblings who aren't related to him by blood.
He couldn't help but raise his hand and pat Miao Yi's shoulder, "Older brother, you're a man of few words, brother I'm sorry for you!"
Miao Yi shook his head and said, "Big brother Yan why do you say that, I just want to ask big brother Yan, you have a way to escape from the roundup of the officials, is there any way to help me get out of the trap?"
Yan Beihong hemmed and hawed twice, tugging on his arm, "This matter is wrapped up in me, go, first find a place to eat and drink."
Miao Yi immediately pulled him back and reminded, "Someone is staring at me."
"A few little scumbags, afraid of a bird!" Yan Beihong dragged him on and left, "Eat and drink enough first, nourish your spirit, brother will send you away at night!"
The two found a temporary noodle shop, asked for a few pounds of beef and two bowls of noodles, and ate to the point of hiccups.
When they left, Yan Beihong packed a lot of food, and then found an empty house with no one in it, unloaded the door and laid it on the ground, and lay down to huff and puff.
Enduring the night comes, in order to get rid of the stalking, Yan Beihong clamped on Miao Yi quickly over the wall, do not take the right way, soon the stalking to get rid of.
Touching the foot of a darker city wall, Yan Beihong observed the patrol pattern on the city head, he has experience as a military commander.
After having a number in mind, he seized the opportunity to throw a pre-prepared simple flying claw onto the city head, grabbing the rope with one hand and stomping on the wall with his flying feet, bringing Miao Yi to quickly go up to the high city head, and then quickly sliding down from the other side of the wall.
Two people all the way in the dark, ran to seven or eight miles away in the mountain forest before stopping.
Borrowing the moonlight in the sky, Yan Beihong pushed the previously prepared food parcel into Miao Yi's arms.
"Big Brother Yan, what are you doing?" Miao Yi held the parcel in disbelief.
"Older brother, escaping is easy, but you want to go home in the future will be difficult, anyway, you are now unattached, that home is not going back, if you go back you will definitely still have to fall into the hands of that Huang Bao Chang. I don't say this before because I am afraid to say it out of your heart, these food is for you to take on the road to eat, go, go as far away as possible."
Yan Beihong returned his hand and pointed in the opposite direction along the mountain, "The flying claws on the city's head ultimately left clues, just in case, go in the opposite direction, that's all I can do, whether it's a disaster or a blessing I can't sway, it's up to your own luck."
"Thank you big brother Yan, it's just that I have one more thing to ask for!"
"Say it, as long as I can help."
"My sister is within the Immortal Gate that you are trying to enter today, her name is Lu Xuexin, she is still young, if big brother can take care of her in the future, I still hope that big brother Yan will take care of her."
"Lu Xuexin ......," Yan Beihong silently recited a few sentences, nodding his head heavily, "I'll make a note of it. Once we part today, I hope that we will have the opportunity to meet again in other days. Small childish gestures I will not do, my own affairs can not be delayed, I first return, you own more take care."
He was a person who was not effeminate, what had to be said had been said and what had to be done had been done, patting Miao Yi on the shoulder, without hesitation he turned around and left in large strides.
Seeing Yan Beihong's figure disappear into the night, Miao Yi looked up towards the ancient city with a complicated expression.
When he first entered the Ten Thousand Red Dust and ventured out, he had already made the worst possible plans, but he just didn't expect that after returning by fluke he would become a loner, and would have to leave his homeland and die alone from now on.
Turning around and finding the direction of his home, Miao Yi kneels down on the spot and chokes, "Lu A-Pa A-Niang, Zhang A-Pa A-Niang, the oldest two and the oldest three have become immortal, and will no longer need to follow me to suffer, you in heaven's spirit to bless them more."
After saying this, he bent his head to the ground and kowtowed.
The dark green bead hanging on his neck flashed a weak light, the "scholar" who played the zither in the midst of all the red dust, silently appeared behind him, still gorgeous, quietly looking at Miao Yi who bowed down and kowtowed.
After kowtowing, Miao Yi raises his hand and wipes the tears from his eyes, stands up, pulls out the pig knife from his waist and grips it in his hand, looks for the right direction, and quickly leaves in accordance with Yan Beihong's instructions.
"Scholar" raised his head to look at the moon, quietly disappeared in the moonlight ......
From darkness to dawn, in the lofty mountains through the night Miao Yi also do not know how far he ran, running out of the mountains with the sunrise was blocked by a big river, see the big river before guessing how far he ran.
He himself is tired enough, kneeling at the river and wash his face with water, sober up a bit. Returning to sit on a large rock on the river bank, he felt out the dry food Yan Beihong had prepared for him, nibbled a few bites, and felt out the sheepskin kettle on his waist, pulled out the stopper and filled it with a few mouthfuls.
Eating something, is pondering how to cross the river, where will go in the future, but see the upper reaches of a light boat downstream, said the bamboo raft may be more appropriate.
On the raft a man in white wrapped in a light green plain cloak, holding up a bamboo pole all the way to float.
River waves, the new raft green, standing on the raft of the "scholar" facing the sunrise morning wind, fluttering clothes, very pleasing to the eye and extraordinary.
"......" biting dry food Miao Yi open mouth stunned, how is he? This is not the "ten thousand feet of red dust" inside the cleanliness of the guy?
"Old Bai, Old Bai!" Miao Yi jumped up and waved his hand and shouted, "Here, here, do you still recognize me?"
The scholar looks at the sound and smiles slightly, holding up the bamboo pole and ferrying the raft to the shore, stopping and looking at the wretched Miao Yi, he smiles and says, "So it's you, little brother, we meet again. In the middle of nowhere, I don't know where little brother is going?"
Miao Yi asked, "Where are you going?"
The scholar looks towards the river rolling east and smiles warmly, "A light boat, downstream, traveling the mountains, no fixed place to go, wherever I go, as it happens."
This mentality, this demeanor, really people than people die of anger, Miao Yi found that this person when to see are a pair of cloudy look, even in that dangerous place is also a look of panic, the body is always clean and simple and simple.
Miao Yi a little embarrassed rubbed his hands and said, "It seems that we are on the same road, I do not know ......."
The implication is obvious, I don't know if I can take your boat.
The scholar nodded his head understandingly, "It's better to have a companion traveling with you, if you don't mind the simplicity of my raft, why don't you board the boat and travel all the way."
"Not simple, not simple, the first time I saw such a beautiful bamboo raft." Miao Yi happily jumped up.
He did not say compliments, this bamboo raft is indeed very exquisite, there is a bamboo mat dome in the center to shield the sun and rain.
The scholar's hand of bamboo pole support bank a push, bamboo raft carrying two people floating to the river, once again downstream.
