Chapter 326 Ah~~~~~, Come here!
No shadow, can’t find it? How is that possible?
A woman who had been seriously ill one after another and whose health had long been poor would not be able to remain unscathed even if she managed to kill Shunji Fukuyama.
Nami Kuroiwa couldn't accept this.
"Look, I don't believe she can go anywhere."
There seemed to be a fire burning in Kuroiwa Nami's eyes. She began to question Matsuyama Osamu, who was almost exhausted, about everything about their return and the process of their search.
While she listened to his detailed account, she checked around and soon discovered the missing basket.
Kuroiwa Nami was furious.
I was also driven crazy by Shunji Fukuyama's stupidity.
Now they have food and drink, so they can hide anywhere during the day and find an opportunity to escape quietly at night.
Sure enough, there is no false reputation.
He is smart and can make all of them fall to the ground by himself.
Nami Kuroiwa was very regretful. She was too careless.
"She must have known the situation at the time and knew she couldn't escape capture, so she hid somewhere you wouldn't expect."
Kuroiwa Nami gritted her teeth and said, "She is waiting for dark, and then she will run away."
As she said this, she looked at the exhausted Matsuyama Osamu, "Where is Yamashita Haru now?"
"He has been keeping watch in the village below, watching the road."
"Then leave him alone."
Kuroiwa Nami said, "Since you are here, it's okay to imitate a woman's cry occasionally, right?"
ah? Songshan Zhi was a little confused. He didn't quite understand what she meant.
"It's getting dark," Kuroiwa Nami looked up at the sky that was about to get dark and said quietly, "Besides tigers and wolves, there are also ghosts that can scare people!"
She turned to look at her subordinates and said, "From now on, we will move separately and quietly. Every two or three hundred steps, either laugh or cry. Be more sinister."
As she said this, she demonstrated to them what a terrifying laugh sounded like, "Hehehe~~~~~"
Each note has a different tune, and seems to have a unique echo in the mountains and forests.
Songshanzhi shuddered violently.
It is said that this place is haunted.
And Hideji Fukuyama's body is still in the cellar.
he……
He swallowed his saliva, but didn't dare to say that he would go look for it too.
He couldn't find it anymore; he had been searching for the whole day.
My legs were already shaking.
"Have you learned it?"
Nami Kuroiwa's eyes were like those of a hungry wolf, as if she would tear alive anyone who dared to say no.
In fact, she really wanted to tear every one of them apart.
A large part of the reason why these people were able to escape and survive was because they themselves lacked the ability, so they had nothing to do with any actions or contacts with the Da Zhao people.
Otherwise, given their stupidity, they would either be in jail or killed and sent to the government, who would then throw them into a mass grave.
It’s a pity that she has no one on her side now.
The undercover personnel in the capital were rescued by the so-called martial artists because of a broken book, without the Dazhao officials having to take any action.
Otherwise, she would never let that idiot Fukuyama Hideji take care of Shen's company alone.
“I’ve learned it!”
"I've learned it, I've learned it..."
"Yes, we all learned it."
Under Kuroiwa Nami's sharp gaze, no one dared to say no, and Matsuyama Osamu also nodded repeatedly.
"Then go to the place where Shen's footprints disappeared and split up."
She was so angry at them that she drank several gulps of water.
There was a fierce battle tonight.
Kuroiwa Nami decided to take care of herself first. She let her hair flutter in the wind. "Wait until the dead of night. I don't believe that woman will not be afraid at all. If she makes any noise, that's when we will catch her."
She let her hair down and stared at the group of idiots. "From now on, keep your ears up. Do you hear me?"
"Hi!"
When Songshanzhi and the other four bowed their heads, they responded loudly.
At this time, Shen Ning was indeed waiting for dark.
There are a lot of mosquitoes in the forest, but fortunately I pulled up my pajamas to protect my head.
Shen Ning now only hoped that the moonlight at night would not be too bright, otherwise, it would be difficult for her to escape.
Time passed slowly in mutual expectation. Before the last ray of light in the sky faded away, the moonlight like water poured down on the earth.
After waiting for a while, the light became dimmer. Shen Ning, who was about to get down from the tree, suddenly saw the birds that had quieted down not far away suddenly scatter in all directions as if their nest had exploded.
“Woo~~~~Woo~~~~~Woo~~~~~~~~”
The horrible cry was carried by the wind.
Shen Ning's heartbeat quickened, and she quickly stood close to the tree.
It is said that the end of science is metaphysics, but that thing may really exist in this world!
she……
It would be a lie to say I wasn't scared.
But when she thought about the Japanese people here, she didn't seem too scared! That thing may exist in the world, but no matter in her past life or this life, she has never done anything wrong.
People say that if you don't do anything wrong in your life, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door in the middle of the night.
If she really encounters Dazhao's ghost, can she ask him for a favor and kill the Japanese?
Her mind was wandering when Nagayama Takao came over with his hair loose and a stick in his hand.
“Woo woo woo~~~~~~~”
He screamed and swept the snake around with the stick, afraid that he would step on the snake again like he had just done.
Takao Changshan was glad that he reacted quickly. When the snake turned around to bite him, he grabbed it and threw it onto the tree.
But he may be lucky once, but he may not be lucky all the time.
Summer is a good time for snakes to come out.
To prevent any accidents, he simply picked up a long branch and swept as he walked.
This place is close to the outer limit estimated by Kuroiwa Nami.
It can't be such a coincidence that Shen came here.
“Woooooo ...
He was crying falsely in his throat, and when he passed by here, Shen Ning, who had her head covered, saw his shadow through the middle seam of her clothes in the moonlight.
Hiss~ pretending to be a ghost!
Why is there someone pretending to be a ghost here?
Shen Ning felt something was wrong.
She slowly sat down again and waited silently.
All day long, the Japanese man who was looking for her ran left and right and never stopped.
Now this...
Could he be his accomplice? They still thought that she couldn't run far without even shoes, so they kept looking for her? Shen Ning sighed softly.
Find it!
There was plenty of light during the day but they couldn't find her. Now that it was dark, she didn't believe they could find her.
Shen Ning suspected that these people were able to firmly believe that she did not run far because they had people monitoring the main roads in and out of this place.
If she goes out now, there is a high probability that she will be caught.
Shen Ning leaned against the tree and waited silently.
The man pretending to be a ghost soon came over with a stick.
However, this time he did not take the small path, but came out from the woods.
Fortunately, it was still a few meters away from the big tree where she was hiding.
Shen Ning slowed down her breathing, shrank herself, and did not move.
“Woooooo ...
Takao Nagayama was observing the surrounding grass or ditches.
Nami Kuroiwa asked them to pay attention to these possible hiding places.
So, as he walked, he observed everything very carefully.
Shen Ning silently watched him approach and then walk away. In the meantime, from time to time, a sound that was neither laughing nor crying, nor crying nor laughing, could be heard from the distance.
Obviously, they had a few more people at this moment.
Not at home during the day, but back at night...
Could it be that she had been observing how the Jia family was looking for her during the day?
If you don't kill her but imprison her, what do you want to exchange her for?
In exchange for the freedom of all the Japanese? Or should the Japanese delegation return home?
Or, is it both? Then they overestimated her status.
Although she was a first-rank imperial edict and was respected by the emperor and empress, she was still far from being able to exchange one person for the lives of so many Japanese people.
This matter..., Shen Ning was not willing to do it either.
She listened attentively to the sounds around her.
But unexpectedly, a woman's laughter came from above the path again.
This laughter is much more creepy than the crying of the Japanese just now.
Shen Ning exhaled lightly and shrank even more obediently.
Time passes by little by little.
Nami Kuroiwa's patience and confidence were rapidly eroding.
Could it be that she made a mistake in judgment?
Or, did Changshan Jingfu and his people reveal a flaw, which was discovered by the Shen family? Or maybe, they are not afraid of ghosts?
I heard that she is a scholar. Scholars here like to say that they don't talk about strange and supernatural things.
Kuroiwa Nami was both angry and helpless.
She was considering changing her strategy to howling like a wolf.
“Hehehehe~~~~~~~”
Each "he" is connected, but the tone of each "he" is different.
Shen Ning's vision was blocked by the branches and leaves, so she couldn't see the other person's situation. When she heard her walk through the woods and onto the path, she felt inexplicably nervous and didn't even dare to peek.
Nami Kuroiwa is still making her final efforts.
She had already searched the forest ahead, but she had never been to this outer area.
According to Matsuyama Osamu's report, when they rushed back, Fukuyama Hideji's body was still warm, and because he was still bleeding, Shen had not been away for long.
When people are running for their lives, they will run faster than usual.
It is very likely that she went to this outskirts and hid.
Thinking of this, Kuroiwa Nami changed from walking horizontally to walking vertically.
Go up the mountain, go down the mountain...
Under the moonlight, in the quiet forest, with her hair loose, she really looked like a ghost.
"Ahhh~~~~" A scream was heard from afar. Kuroiwa Nami suddenly turned around and ran towards the direction of the scream.
Shen Ning swallowed her saliva, feeling that if she continued to search like this, she would not be safe here.
To prevent any accidents, she quickly climbed down the tree and ran farther away.
She observed from day to night, and although she took a nap on a tree in the middle, she could see that these Japanese did not go any further to look for her.
Then, if she just ran a few more miles, she would be relatively safe.
This time, Shen Ning didn't carry the basket anymore.
There was only one steamed bun left, so he wrapped it together with the remaining five mung bean cakes and stuffed them tightly into his sleeve. Then, holding the water bag in one hand and the dagger in the other, he crouched, turned to the path, and ran as fast as he could.
She didn't dare walk in the woods. What if there were snakes? The man just screamed so miserably, maybe he encountered a snake? Also, there are many dead branches in the forest. If one is stepped on and broken, the sound can be heard far away at night.
This path is safer and easier to walk on.
As soon as she turned a corner, Kuroiwa Nami came back.
My companion only screamed once, probably because he was bitten by a snake.
She originally wanted to go and take a look, but for some reason, the further she got away from here, the more anxious she became.
There is a high possibility that Shen is hiding in the periphery where she originally thought! Just now..., she might be observing her from somewhere.
When she realized this, she turned back decisively.
However, it was too late.
But what Kuroiwa Nami didn't know was that this time she was not only observing the grass and ditches, but also checking the trees.
If Shen could climb trees, she might really be able to climb up a tree!
When she went up and down the mountain to check the trees again, she didn't know that Chen Ning had already run two miles.
She ran quite far, but she didn't dare to stop.
Run farther, run farther, and maybe you can avoid the Japanese on the road when you go down the mountain.
Having escaped from the wolf's den, her most critical issue now was returning to Beijing.
But she didn't even know where this place was, and she didn't know how difficult the journey back to Beijing would be.
So, she had to get some clothes that ordinary people could wear.
Shen Ning ran breathlessly, and when she was tired, she walked. Finally, the path became wider, and under the moonlight, she saw another village.
She wanted to go down so badly, but if there were still pursuers behind her and she went down, there would be dogs in the village...
Chen Ning suppressed the thought of entering the village, stepped on the stalks of the fields at the foot of the mountain, and ran further away.
She had a day's rest today and now she is full of energy to escape.
Even the headaches and colds that usually come up all the time never come to see her.
Shen Ning went around one village, then another, and stopped at the end of the third village.
There is only this one house within 500 meters, and the fence is damaged. It must be that some naughty children have sneaked through it many times.
Shen Ning felt that she could also drill.
Then, she really sneaked in and stole a set of tattered clothes and a pair of worn-out straw sandals that were hung under the porch.
Clothes at that time were extremely precious to farmers. Even if they were torn, they were washed clean.
When Chen Ning came out and changed into clothes in a secluded place, she said to the family in her heart that she would return the hundred sets to them when she returned to Beijing.
The ones chasing her were the Japanese. It was okay for the family to lose their clothes, but if they spread the news, it would easily cause misunderstanding if someone replaced her with a set of clothes that were dirty and brushed, but obviously made of good material.
If one is not careful, the whole family may be killed by the enemy.
Chen Ning didn't dare to stay, so she rolled up her clothes and used them as a bundle, and put the dagger, steamed buns, and mung bean cakes inside, tied them around her body, and then went further away.
At this time, the night wind was rising. She took a rest while walking, turned to a wider country road, but did not continue along the road. Instead, she crossed the path in front and went to the village on the other side.
Finally, she didn't know how far she had walked. When the wind was getting stronger and her feet were getting more painful, the cat came to a pile of firewood.
It started to drizzle before dawn, but the farmers still kept their habit of getting up early.
Granny Liu is now living with her son-in-law. She loves her daughter very much, so naturally she is the one who makes breakfast.
But I never thought that when I was holding a piece of firewood, I would see a living person.
At the same time, because of the strong wind, the oil paper that Chen Ning left in the basket was blown out and just happened to float in front of Kuroiwa Nami, who was so desperate that she had given up.
She looked at many trees but couldn't find anyone, but this oil paper...
For farmers, they will not easily give up even a piece of oil paper.
So, this is what Shen left behind.
When Kuroiwa Nami picked up the oil paper, she screamed on the spot, "Ah~~~~~, everyone, get over here."
