The road from Africa to Europe

Chapter 489 Escape
This time it’s time to go out to burn incense. My grandmother will go to burn incense every month, hoping that the Buddha will bless her children and grandchildren in peace, especially since there is a son Shiro who is stationed at the border. The mother is really worried about his son’s situation. I will pray for blessings once a month. I don’t want my children and grandchildren to be prosperous, I just want them to live well. For this reason, the elderly have to go to the temple to pray for blessings once a month.

And Ling Xiao, who is rarely able to go out for a walk, will specially accompany his grandmother to the temple to offer incense. The two of them have always been like this. This time the offering of incense is different, because this time they also took their younger brother out together. This is the first time for the children to play outside, and they have been looking outside very excitedly all morning.

Ling Xiao doesn't know why she doesn't believe in burning incense and worshiping Buddha, but it doesn't prevent her from taking advantage of the opportunity of burning incense to go out for a walk. In addition, she likes the vegetarian food provided in the temple. The master chef in the temple is doing a good job. It's good to come here once a month to eat, and she even took people around the area. After all, the scenery on the mountain is good, so she found a lot of interesting places.But this time she stayed in the small courtyard obediently and did not go out

And the younger brother who was very excited was a little tired after playing all morning, and yawned again and again after eating vegetarian food. Knowing that their siblings have always been dependent on each other, their relationship is particularly good.

Falling asleep and falling asleep, she suddenly heard screams coming from afar, not just one, but several times in succession, and someone called for help, but stopped abruptly in the middle of the call. She had never heard these screams. Waking up from the dream, I sat up suddenly.

She has been different from ordinary people since she was a child. Her ears are very bright, and she can hear farther sounds than others. Now she hears faint screams, which makes her feel wrong. This is Buddhism. How could it be possible? There are so many screams?
Unless something bad happened, she felt wrong and got up and put on her clothes quickly, because she prefers to explore outside, so naturally it is impossible to wear delicate clothes, this kind of clothes are too restrictive, she wants to see See what's going on, naturally put on the kind of clothes that are relatively clean and neat, not the kind of beautiful dresses.

She quickly climbed up to the high place and saw that something was wrong. Many people with knives and guns even started to surround the temple. Many people were lying on the ground along the way, probably because they did not want the news to spread.And they have already entered a part of the gate, so they will enter here soon.

Time is running out, do you want to stay?This idea was quickly suppressed, and the result of staying behind might be bullied by those people, so she decided to take her brother and leave.

She hurried back to the room, wondering what to do?Then the only way is to run out to find rescuers, and now she can only do it as the discoverer. I saw robbers blocking the mountain gate just now, so naturally I can't go through the front door, and some of those people should come here now.

After taking out the things she was preparing to fight, she saw her brother who was still asleep at a glance. The Jedi could not keep him. This kind of weak and precious person is often the easiest target, so she woke up the children and put the four-year-old brother tied to his chest.

The younger brother who was still a little confused didn't understand what was going on, Ling Xiao told him: We are going to play hide-and-seek with others soon, so if you want to win, please keep quiet, she asked the younger brother to remember her words, and the younger brother has listened to his sister the most these years If so, naturally agree quickly.

She planned to sneak away before the people came here. As for Xin Yi, the big maid beside her, she couldn't take her away for the time being. If Xin Yi couldn't climb up and down like a monkey like her, she would send her to find her. The grandmother who came to burn incense together, asked her to tell her grandmother, don't let people know that there are still people from the Ling family who come to burn incense in the temple together, and she will go back to ask for help.

Xin Yi was very nervous after hearing this. She knew that this was the best way. If she was always trapped here, she would be in more danger. And her little lady is very good at being a tiger girl, but she usually behaves very well. Well-behaved, it's just that outsiders don't know about it, and occasionally let it go.

Even her big servant girl has some skills, but she also knows that she can't help much, at least she didn't know what happened just now, and the county master found out, so she can only say: "Your servant knows, and will definitely protect the old lady." , little lady, hurry up and go to work."

Ling Xiao didn't say anything else. Carrying her brother in her arms didn't affect her skills, so she jumped onto the wall and left. She flew over the walls all the way, and no one found her trace at all.

In this way, she took her younger brother MO out to the temple, found a special place for chariots and horses, and found a horse that looked very handsome. The horse was very affectionate after seeing her. This is also her special place, and almost all animals like it. Even if it is not his own horse, he will obey him obediently.

She knows that her speed must be fast, and there is a saying that is good: speed is the most important thing in a soldier, that's why she came here to steal a horse. She knows that if she doesn't ride a horse, she has to run back by herself, and the speed is much slower, okay The horse was very happy to see Ling Xiao, and there was no resistance at all. Ling Xiao got on the horse after taking off the rein.

After the horse left, it was quickly discovered by others. As long as they were not blind, they could see a big horse leaving. Those people would know that someone ran away on horseback. How could this be possible?Someone also rode on a horse and chased them all the way. While chasing, they asked Ling Xiao to surrender. Can Ling Xiao surrender?Surrender is tantamount to courting death.

Later, the chasers started to shoot arrows, and Ling Xiao didn't have any convenient weapons on him. Fortunately, he still had a whip in his hand. Although she hadn't practiced it, the whip made it very slippery. The arrows that killed her and the horse were only pushed away.

Her performance again and again made the people who came later even more angry. They all planned to kill Ling Xiao. They belonged to veterans who had done cases many times, and they worked well together. To a place that is not easy to walk.

It was the first time for Ling Xiao to face vicious gangsters. Along the way, she had to beware of the people behind her. In addition, she was carrying her younger brother in her arms, so she was naturally even more nervous, so he didn't pay attention to the group's thoughts at all. , so far away from the original avenue, and into a small road.

It was too late when Ling Xiao suddenly discovered this very bad question. She finally recognized that she had been to this place before. As a person with a photographic memory, she naturally remembered the places she had played. The road is gone.

Depend on!How to do?She maintained a certain speed, feeling very bad in her heart.So is it too late to turn the horse around now?cannot!If you want to directly confront those who are following you, those people will never let you and your younger brother go, maybe the first one will snatch your younger brother and torture him severely, so why bother turning back.

Going forward, I can only go forward, she still remembers that they used to ride here very leisurely to see the scenery, and if they go forward, there is a cliff, and the opposite is a slope, so now the only way to survive It is to let the horse jump over at once.

At this moment, she looked ahead, and then whispered to the horse: Jump over!At this moment, a small head protruded from her chest. He was also a little curious at the moment, not knowing what his sister said.

Ling Xiao pressed his younger brother's little head and said, "Close your big eyes immediately, and wait for my sister to let you open them, okay?" The little furry head nodded and shrank back into her arms , and after Ling Xiao stuffed the little brother, she signaled the horse to speed up and speed up.

The chasers behind slowed down a bit, because they felt that the opponent could not escape, and planned to tease him like a cat catching a mouse. From their point of view, this little guy could not escape. His ears were cut off to make him disobedient.

They thought it was a boy, and they didn't think it was a girl at all, but at this moment, they found that the horse that the young boy was sitting on started to jump, didn't they? !

They also saw that there was a cliff in front of them, because they all saw the situation on the other side, and someone wanted to jump off the cliff?This kid has tough bones!Still stupid!They simply cannot describe the behavior.

The reason why Ling Xiao planned to ride a horse across the cliff was because she was forced on the one hand, and on the other hand, she remembered one thing, that is, when she saw the scenery last time, she didn't know why she was thinking about whether she could jump on a horse In the past, it was weird to feel that if the quality of the horse was good at a certain angle, you could try it.

Now at this time, it is natural to work hard. She rode the horse to speed up and chose the most suitable angle. She saw the horse flying away from this side, and both the man and the horse were flying in the air. Moving forward due to inertia, Ling Xiao sat on the saddle with a little nervousness, his mouth slightly pursed.

When the later people arrived, they found that the horse jumped on the other side's slope like a pegasus, which made them so angry that they wanted to beat their breasts and scream!Damn it!Why did all their arrows shoot out just now?If you shot him with an arrow while he and the horse were in the air, he might fall into the cliff.

After Ling Xiao passed by, she went straight down the mountain without any hesitation. She rushed back to the capital to save people. Fortunately, the Ling family belongs to a big family, and the safety of her grandmother is very important to the adults in the family. She can go to the family to report .

The burning incense this time was that the two of them, the siblings, came with their grandmother. No matter how they had to find someone to save their grandmother, they rode back to the capital all the way. It can be said that they were very nervous. The baby on Ling Xiao's chest didn't know what was going on. Also very happy.

Ling Xiao told him not to show his head, because of the strong wind, she ran all the way back to her home and found a rescuer.She was the first person who ran back to report that someone was blocking the temple. Generally, there are some rich families staying in the temple, so if something is wrong, it will be later.

After finding the rescuer, she returned home and asked someone to take good care of the horse first, and then asked someone to ask whose horse it was, to express their gratitude, and they might not be able to come back without this horse.

When she relaxed, she felt tired, and her thighs were burning because they were worn out.She had learned riding skills before, but she hadn't ridden for a long time. This time, she couldn't bear the sudden long time.

She limped back to her small courtyard, and her younger brother had already been untied from her chest and put him on the bed. Now she could only wait for the news, and hoped that everything was not too late. Hungry and tired, but fortunately her other maid was here to bring her food and drink.

She waited for a while after eating and drinking, but there was still no news, and her body couldn't bear it, and then fell asleep. As for the younger brother, he also ate and drank and fell asleep with his sister.

After she fell asleep, she fell into a deep sleep, and the people in the other rooms couldn't say anything. A child who was still young came back with another child and brought news to everyone. It's really good, they don't want their own If something happened to my mother, if something happened, those who would be officials would have to go home to observe their filial piety.

In this way, Ling Xiao slept until the next day, and she didn't know that her grandmother had been rescued until she woke up. She took her younger brother to see her grandmother, and her grandmother was very happy to see Ling Xiao and her brother.

You must know that she was very happy when she learned from Xin Yi that the child ran away, but she was also a little nervous. After all, there are two children, so I don't know where they can go?There are a lot of bad guys out there.

But if their siblings were still there, they might be killed. Grandma saw that several children were killed because they saw the robbers crying. She was very glad that the children ran away after seeing that scene. .

When she knew that it was her granddaughter who broke out from the siege and asked for help, which meant that she saved everyone, she was surprised and happy, this granddaughter is really good, she rubbed her head, and asked: "What gift do you want? "

Ling Xiao shook his head and said, "Grandmother, I don't need a gift. At first, I just thought that I couldn't wait to die, and I also wanted to let more people save my grandmother. This time, my grandmother can come back safely is the best gift."

The "good boy" grandmother was very happy. She was very happy to see her granddaughter. You must know that because of Ling Xiao, more people were saved this time. This is a good thing for the Ling family, and the family will definitely be honored.

Ling Xiao is also smiling. Of course she wants to keep her grandmother. Now she and her younger brother need the care of her grandmother. Whoever let their parents and mothers go outside the customs? There are only two Ling family fourth rooms in the capital. The child is in the capital.

The reason why I didn't take them with me was because the place was too cold and it was too dangerous for the pampered children to come here, so what about the two children?I can only live with my grandmother, with my grandmother's care.

And Ling Xiao, who has been living relatively calmly, soon felt a little bit of a problem after her parents left. After all, the family she lives in now is a big family, so many people of the same generation live in a big house. The closeness of the sister-in-law always causes some small friction between the sisters-in-law.

Some women are frustrated by their peers, so they try to find ways to get it back from their children, and they still like that seniority to oppress others, and the two of them, Sifang, belong to the weaker side, who made their siblings younger.

Fortunately, there is grandma here, if there is no grandma's Dinghaishenzhen, wouldn't it be rubbed by the people in those rooms?So when Ling Xiao knew it was not good, he took his younger brother to escape on horseback, and then went to ask for rescue soldiers. The whole process was done in one go, so the rescue was successful.

After that, the grandmother put the Ling Xiao siblings in her heart, and the other children couldn't say anything. Who made Ling Xiao succeed in saving people, and made the Ling family have more contacts with other families.

Originally, some people criticized women for learning to ride horses, and those who thought that women should stay at home honestly lost their voices for a while, but after this time, everyone knew that if Ling Xiao hadn't come out on horseback to ask for help, many people would have died because of it.

Of course, everyone praised her, but they all felt that this woman was too outstanding, so not many people dared to have a better relationship with her. Of course, those cousins ​​who seemed much more ordinary were very popular.

Ling Xiao didn't know these things at all. She was busy studying and taking good care of her younger brother. Ever since her younger brother was rescued by her, she liked to cling to her elder sister. She was so busy that she didn't care about the problems around her.

It's just that when she is free, she always feels something is wrong. Even though she has lived in this place for many years, she still feels an indescribable loneliness, as if something is calling her. I don't know why she always has to go on the road alone The thought made her feel unspeakable helplessness.

When she dreams back in the middle of the night, she will burst into tears, and when she wakes up, she will forget a lot of things. Obviously she lives in the backyard as the daughter of an official family, but she just feels out of place.
