One or two branches of plum outside the bamboo

Chapter 290 Three groups of people

The cloth bag was soaking wet, but Lu Jian didn't care. He put an old clothes on his shoulders and threw it on the top of the carriage.

Yan Qingzhi had already chopped off the pig's leg. Instead of bleeding, she found some dry branches from one side, wrapped them in lard, made a simple torch, and baked the wounds for a short time. so that the pig's leg no longer drips blood.

Then she stepped on the torch, changed her smock, cleaned up the surrounding traces, and then turned back to the carriage.

Lu Jian and Yan Qingzhu were both sitting on the carriage, and Yan Qingzhu gave way to Yan Qingzhi.

Yan Qingzhi was not polite either, she lay down on her head and fell asleep at the carriage entrance.

This wild boar is too heavy, and it is not too difficult to kill, but Yan Qingzhi wasted too much on the way back.

She hadn't had a good rest all this time, and after this round, she couldn't hold it anymore, and she wasn't iron-clad after all.

The moment Yan Qingzhi lay down, she fell asleep. The carriage was bumpy all the way, and the children in the car felt uncomfortable, but she was the only one and didn't dislike anything.

When he woke up, the carriage was already shaking out of the forest.

She was a little reluctant to be in a comfortable environment, but she still managed to sit up.

As soon as she sat up, Yan Qingzhu heard a movement outside, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and he probed in to check.

Yan Qingzhi didn't want to wake others, so she asked when she heard the movement.

"What time is it?"

Her voice was low, dry and hoarse. Yan Qingzhu handed her the water bag and listened to the sound of her pulling the stopper to drink water. He didn't answer until it was quiet.

"It's halfway through the ugly time."

Yan Qingzhi slept for about an hour and a half, but recovered a lot. She struggled to get up when she heard a low voice from Lu Jian outside.

"You will be out of the forest soon, you can sleep for a while."

Yan Qingzhi drank the water and was much awake, and staggered out of the carriage.

Hearing the movement, Lu Jian also slowed down the speed of the carriage.

Yan Qingzhi sat next to Yan Qingzhu, and after the curtain was lowered, her voice became louder.

"It's alright, my whole body kept calling out when I slept. I'll sit for a while and relax."

Yan Qingzhi slept with pain all over her body, and she had to slow down to get back to her best state.

Lu Jian wanted to turn his head to look at her, but the surrounding environment was inexplicable. As soon as he made a move, Yan Qingzhu opened his mouth to remind him.

"There's something in front of you left!"

Lu Jian quickly controlled the carriage and carefully avoided it, and then he didn't want to turn his head again.

Yan Qingzhi sat quietly for a while, and finally got used to this state. After resting, she finally felt full of strength, and even the sound of her hungry stomach was louder than usual.

Just as they left the forest, another group of people chased after their previous camp.

They were scattered around to check the traces around them, and only the headed people walked all the way, listening to the reports of the people below at any time, and integrating all the news together.

One of the men in black checked the surrounding traces, then turned around and reported to the leader.

"Brother, the traces have been cleaned up, but it can still be seen that someone has stayed here, it should be them."

The man who took the lead was wrapped in black clothes, and waved away the mosquitoes around him. There was already a person standing beside him, and he was about to speak when this person preempted him.

The man who took the lead glanced at him impatiently, then turned to ask another person standing beside him.

"What did you see over there?"

"There is a drag mark, but it seems to be dragged back from the other side. It doesn't look like a drag mark. There is also blood, which should have been brought out from the deep mountains..."

The leader nodded.

"It seems that they did stop here. Do a good search around here to see which direction they went."

The two nodded immediately and left.

The person in the lead looked at the situation nearby, found a tree at random, and waited for someone to come.

Just as he was waiting for his people to come over, he suddenly heard some noise behind him.

The loud voice was very familiar, and it was obvious that someone had come over.

He thought it was his own at first, but after a while, his expression changed a little. He leaned on the tree trunk, and under the cover of the night, he stretched out his head and looked in the direction of the voice.

Several people supported each other and climbed to the high ground not far away.

The distance is too far, he can't see the clothes of those people, he can only see that those people are very strong.

"Eldest son, do we need to do it ourselves?"

Although the man's voice was deliberately lowered, it still spread far and wide in such an environment.

"Humph! Those rubbish, besieging a group of children, and letting them beat one to death, and saying that the little girl's film is strong and powerful, when I can't see their thoughts, don't I think the ancient art is better than me! When I don't know what they're thinking..."

While being pulled to the high ground by others, the man was still complaining.

"Second uncle doesn't seem to be capable. He can raise some powerful sons. I don't know what grandpa values ​​about them. I leave everything to him. It's all his people in the stockade. I'll do something. Always keep your hands tied."

"..."

Hearing these words, the man raised his brows, and when he heard another movement in the distance, he hurriedly raised his head, just in time to see a black image in the distance approaching.

This time it was finally his own, he quickly raised his hand with his back to the tree trunk and gave the man a gesture.

Professionally trained people like them can sometimes spot a lot of problems just by intuition, not to mention some gestures at this time.

The man instantly understood the meaning of the leader, and the whole person instantly hid in the low bushes, and moved in the direction of the other people with a low body shape, that quiet state, as if he had never appeared before. .

And although the other group felt something abnormal, before he could listen carefully, the complaints from the other end rose again.

In the eyes of this man, the defeats of those people during the day were all intentional, and they took this opportunity to give allegiance to the second room.

The man in black listened to their conversation, frowned and thought for a moment before guessing the identity of the other party.

Just as he was trying to see if there was any better way for this group of people to find the group, another group of people rushed over from behind.

The second group of people who arrived quickly hid in close proximity.

The last group of people who arrived was a little arrogant, one by one riding tall horses, and some people held torches for lighting.

The man at the head was dressed in a blue robe, and the belt was made of old brown-yellow cowhide, with a dagger in it, and a rope and a water bag hanging on it.

Two black leather belts crossed his chest and bound the two long swords on his back.

The messy hair on his head couldn't hide his righteousness.

Before he reached the heights, he had already reined in the reins.

And the people behind him also stopped.

The man kept the traces around him in his eyes, cupped his hands against the air, and as soon as he opened his mouth, a loud voice came out far away.

"My lord, Qiu Xingchen, the head of Baitaomen, Qiu Chenfeng, is in the next cousin. He is in a hurry to pass by this place. He has no intention of being enemies with the heroes.

His words were full of vigor and energy, neither humble nor arrogant.It lowered the vigilance of those who were hiding by two points.

After saying this, he didn't move forward, but changed direction, bypassed this highland, and turned away.

The sound of the hooves hooted away until it disappeared completely, and the two groups of people let out a faint sigh of relief.

"How did those people find us just now?"

The people surrounded by the crowd asked the people around them in confusion.

The man beside him nodded in response.

"We just arrived here, and we didn't completely cover up the traces. It's not surprising that they can see it, but this Bai Tao Sect, this is the first time I heard that there is such a sect in the sea river?"

The eldest son who was surrounded by people didn't take it too seriously when he heard this.

"There are many gangs in Haichuan, and the speed of success and demise is also fast. We are in Lushan, and it's normal that we haven't heard of it. Right now, it's business to find that group of people. The fourth uncle has been dead for more than a month. Those corpse puppets and human puppets There is no news, and this matter cannot be delayed any longer!"

After speaking, someone suddenly shouted not far away.

"Eldest son, there is blood here..."

Hearing the man's shout, a group of people suddenly turned their heads to look, and the eldest son stepped forward a few steps and bent down to examine it carefully.

"This bloodstain is a little light, and it seems to have been covered up. You can look around to see if you can determine the direction those people left."

As soon as his voice fell, the surrounding people dispersed, and after a while, someone noticed the traces of the carriage scraping through the branches.

"It seems to be in that direction, let's chase as soon as possible, and try to catch up with them before dawn!"

A large group of people chased in the direction of the traces left by the carriage.

It was not until they had left for a long time that the people who were initially hidden slowly emerged from the corner.

One of them patted his chest.

"Scared me to death, they almost stepped on me just now!"

The other sneered.

"Who made you get so close!"

"What do you know! I didn't come so close for nothing, but I heard a lot of words just now..."

"Oh? What's the use?"

"That's a lot..."

"Talk, talk!"

"..."

The two talked and walked towards the middle of the high ground.

The man whose whole body was covered by the black robe had already jumped down from the tree, and after listening to the report of his subordinates, he had a general understanding of the situation.

"It turned out to be an old grudge. I was still thinking, how come the people from Nanhuang came over so quickly in just a few days!"

The people around him responded quickly.

"However, according to what they said, we should be looking for the same people. Why don't we follow them..."

The man in the black robe was thoughtful, but he quickly rejected the man's proposal.

"No, it took more than a month to find them, and it may not be that they have any real skills. You let the old six and the seven keep an eye on them, and we will continue to track them according to the original rhythm."

Hearing this, the people around him nodded.

"It's still the boss's careful consideration. So many forces in Kaicheng are running behind us, and our ability is evident. We really have no reason to follow others."

The group checked all traces here, and even found the wild boar corpse that Yan Qingzhi had thrown all the way back.

The three-party forces left from three directions, and the high ground slowly became quiet. After a long time, only one beast appeared, heading towards the few wild boar corpses left.

Lu Jian said that he was about to leave the mountain forest, and as expected, he was about to leave the mountain forest. Not long after, the carriage slowly left the mountain.

The downhill road was not easy to walk. Both Yan Qingzhi and Yan Qingzhu got off the carriage. Yan Qingzhi tied the carriage with ropes. She was behind and Yan Qingzhu was in front. The two helped Lu Jian control the carriage, and they left. After a quarter of an hour, the carriage emerged from the forest.

After leaving the forest, Yan Qingzhi also breathed a sigh of relief.

Although everyone had never encountered any risks when they entered the mountain to entrust Yan Qingzhu's clothes this time, the feeling of endless risks hidden in the silence still made Yan Qingzhi unable to calm down.

Now that I have come out, I feel that the wind is much fresher.

At this time, the sky was already bright, and another day passed, and it was finally a peaceful night.

Yan Qingzhi asked Lu Jian to rest and drove the car by himself. They couldn't keep running like this, they had to find a place to dispose of these wild boars.

In just a short while, a lot of bugs have fallen on the cloth bag. The pig legs hanging there are better because they have not lost their hair. However, the temperature is too high, and if you don't eat it, it will go bad sooner or later.

There were still some fruits picked the day before, and Jun Tongyue coaxed the children to eat a little bit. When the sun came up and the most painful time to travel, Yan Qingzhi stopped the carriage.

She found a place near a water source and raised a bonfire.

When the fire ignited, everyone stepped back, even Lu Jian couldn't bear it.

However, meals are always eaten and medicines have to be boiled.

Yan Qingzhi couldn't do anything about it, but Lu Jian's fire wasn't big, so it burned alive.

Yan Qingzhi washed the wild boars and inserted them one by one on the edge of the fire. After a full circle, he was no longer busy with anything else, and was only responsible for adding firewood, turning over and sprinkling seasonings.

The wind blew the smell of barbecue far away, and after a while, the children sat around behind Yan Qingzhi.

Yan Qingzhi didn't want to break her character, and asked Jun Tongyue to take care of the children in the carriage. Yan Qingzhu sat behind her, roasted the meat in one layer, sliced ​​it down, and fed it to the children.

Wild boar is thick, thick, and stinky. It is not as delicious as home-bred pork.

But in the end, it's meat, and those hungry children still eat deliciously.

Yan Qingzhi was sweating profusely, but she didn't dare to stop. Some traces were not clear. She knew that sooner or later someone would come after her. While she was not nervous now, she could have more time to prepare. The people who were chasing them really kept up in batches. If there was nothing to eat at that time, it would be really helpless.

They are better, desperate to survive, even raw meat can be eaten, but these children can't do it!
Yan Qingzhi was soaked with sweat, but she just wiped the sweat with a towel and continued to work.
