Chapter 43: Escape from the Troubled Times 41
Lin Xia, wearing a guard uniform and a new hairstyle, ran into the cell with a panicked look on her face, "Something happened."
The cell was dim, and the four people inside didn't notice that their teammates had been replaced, and asked anxiously, "What happened?"
"Something happened to you." A handful of drugs were thrown at their faces, and the four people were shocked, "You, you are not..."
"Find it sooner in your next life." Lin Xia whispered softly, her gentle tone sending chills down one's spine, as if she were a devil's messenger.
He killed one with one sword, picked up the key from the guard, and with a "click", the lock opened.
The two people in the cell were covered in wounds and unconscious. Lin Xia gave them some water and slapped them each a few times, and they slowly woke up.
Qi Xiuer squinted her eyes and took a look cautiously. She didn't recognize the person in front of her, but he looked a little familiar. Then she looked again and recognized Lin Xia.
"Sister Lin..." A weak crying voice suddenly sounded.
"Okay, okay, it's okay. We have to seize the time and run quickly." He casually comforted Qi Xiu'er, took out a handful of medicine and handed it to Zhang Yue next to him, then took another handful and sprinkled it roughly on Qi Xiu'er.
Lin Xia went out of the cell, stripped off the corpse's clothes, and gave them to the two men. At this time, the two men were relying solely on the belief that they were alive to support their actions.
The three men walked out of the cell and didn't see anyone. The entire yard was silent, in contrast to the noisy outside.
Lin Xia was already familiar with the environment before. She supported herself with one hand and came to the wall. The exit here was very secretive.
She leaned against the wall and peeked in. There were no soldiers guarding the place.
Then he pulled the two men up and glanced casually at the yard next to him, which was full of dead bodies.
Judging from their clothes, they were probably the county magistrate’s family and some officials. All men, women, and children were killed.
She took Qi Xiu'er and the other person to a corner of the yard, found a secret cabinet, and let them rest inside for a while while she went out to see what was going on.
The other side.
The virtuous king said to Xiao Cheng calmly and frantically on the city wall, "If you don't withdraw your troops in a quarter of an hour, then you will be prepared to see Zhou Hean's body. I mean what I say."
The virtuous king received the news that Zhou He'an had run away, but he was betting that Zhou He'an had not yet reached Xiao Cheng.
"Old man, then look at who I am." Zhou He'an walked out slowly.
Obviously, the wise king lost the bet.
Hahahahaha.......
The virtuous king laughed loudly, "I didn't expect to lose to the Zhou family in the end, but I don't regret it. The Zhou family can be considered buried with me."
The wise king's eyes were crazy and strange, "Aren't you going to take over the people of this city?"
Zhou Hean said without hesitation, "We will pray for them."
The winner takes it all, hahahahahahahaha.
The loss was not unfair.
The outcome was decided. The wise king picked up his sword, slashed his throat cleanly, and fell out of the city gate.
Zhou Hean stared blankly at the shadow falling from the sky. After ten years, all the enemies of the Zhou family were finally dead...
Lin Xia came out carefully and found that the situation had changed. All the soldiers laid down their weapons and quietly waited for their fate. The city gates were opened and King Cheng's army entered.
She knew it was a victory, they all survived.
After taking off the enemy's clothes, Lin Xia took out the token of King Cheng's army, took two soldiers with him to carry the two unconscious people away, and when he went out, he saw Wu Geli who looked anxious.
The other party looked relieved, "Fortunately you are okay, are these two okay?"
“Still alive.”
"Thanks for your hard work."
"It's not hard." Life is hard.

All is well and alive.
When she asked Qi Xiuer later, Lin Xia finally understood why Zhou Hean was in trouble.
In a nutshell, it's because of being too eager for success and being stabbed in the back by the people.
Blinded by hatred, Zhou He'an led his troops on a hurried march to hunt down the virtuous king. They happened to pass by a fork in the road, and there were traces on both sides, so he didn't know where to track.
At this time, Zhang Yue heard a low shout and found a child of four or five years old hiding in a pile of grass beside the road and shivering.
The child was shaking violently. When Zhang Yue found him, he looked at her in horror with tears in his eyes.
Zhou He'an stepped forward and comforted him softly, then asked the child if he had been here all along and if he had seen a group of people passing by.
The child just nodded and cried, but didn't say anything.
Zhou He'an asked a few questions patiently. The child was quite young and looked frightened, so she didn't intend to ask any more questions.
The child's frightened eyes miraculously calmed down when he saw the flag Zhou Hean was carrying. He said tremblingly, "I've seen this flag before. My mother said that if you see it, you can live."
Everyone was quiet, and then the child said, "I saw a lot of people going this way."
The child pointed to the road on the left, but he didn't expect that his childish words would hurt everyone.
They were ambushed by the Wise King. The canyon there was extremely vulnerable to attack. Zhou He'an and his team were first ambushed in the canyon, and then their retreat was blocked by the Wise King. Most of the 3,000-man team were killed or wounded, and in the end only three people survived.
Later, it was learned that the boy and his family were encountered by the fleeing wise king, who captured the boy's family and threatened him to do as he said, otherwise he would never see his parents again.
The virtuous king hated Zhou He'an, just as Zhou He'an hated the virtuous king. Without her, how could the reckless Xiao Cheng accomplish anything! He wanted to take a gamble and capture Zhou He'an. Even if he couldn't survive, he would definitely let Zhou He'an be buried with him.
In this way, the anxious Zhou Hean met the lying child. The child was so nervous that he couldn't speak. When he saw the flag his mother had used to comfort him, he calmed down and remembered what the wise king had told him...
In the end, the child who saw the flag did not survive.
sorrow!
Understand the whole story.
Lin Xia had only one thing to say about this: Our ancestors were right, don’t chase after a desperate enemy!
"Haven't you only been training for two years? How did you get into the Royal Guard?" Lin Xia was surprised when she saw Qi Xiu'er's pale face.
"It's not because I trained well. Too many guards died this year, so we joined the team early."
Lin Xia was glad in her heart that the battlefield was a meat grinder and that didn't matter how good your martial arts skills were. It was great for her to be with Wang Zhaozhao.
But being a bodyguard is meaningless. Now that the male and female protagonists have conquered the world, can I resign and go back to test Wang Zhaozhao's attitude?
Wang Zhaozhao is much more humane than the serious ancients. He can understand that workers want to resign, but if the training does not pay back, it would be a loss. So he agreed to let Lin Xia work for another five years and let her go after the next batch of new people get the hang of it.

For a period of time afterwards, Zhou He'an reflected on himself and was busy with the follow-up work after being captured.
After the dust settled, Zhou He'an and his wife privately summoned a rescue team.
This was the first time that Lin Xia really saw the male protagonist’s appearance.
Wow, he doesn’t look like a good guy. He looks ferocious and vicious, as expected of a bandit leader.
Lin Xia soon stopped thinking about anything else.
Because Lin Xia was the biggest contributor to rescuing Zhou He'an, he got the most, including several hundred kilograms of gold, several large boxes of silver, and countless gold, silver, jewelry, and real estate.
Even though it wasn't performed on the spot, Lin Xia's eyes still lit up when he heard it. He felt like he had become rich overnight.
Even when Zhou He'an invited her to become an official, Lin Xia was not interested and refused, but the others gladly accepted the reward of becoming an official or being promoted.
