Chapter 14: A sudden turn of events
Li Laosan only glanced at him and swung the whip in his hand, "Behave yourself!"
Chen Er curled his lips and stepped back.
Shen Qingqian urged: "Brother, let's go!"
As another moment passed, she was really afraid that the Jun people would abandon their horses and chase after her.
Chen Xiao nodded, then bowed to Jiang Goudan and said, "Please pay attention to the direction along the way, so that we don't go too far."
Jiang Goudan didn't expect Shen Xiao to be so polite to him, and hurriedly said, "Of course, of course."
The group set out again, heading upstream along the stream.
As Shen Qingqian was walking, she suddenly looked back. It was pitch black behind her and she couldn't see clearly. She didn't know whether the person who reminded them to enter the woods had caught up with her.
But since they are all fugitives, he shouldn't take the opportunity to escape.
At this moment, Sheng Ze, who was being thought about by Shen Qingqian, was following the team from a distance. He was waiting for Ling Yun.
With Ling Yun's skills, it should be no problem for him to stop the princess of the Jun tribe, but it has been a while and Ling Yun has not returned yet, which is a bit abnormal.
Sheng Ze looked up at the team fleeing quickly in front of him, thought for a moment, then turned around and headed in the direction they had just entered the forest.
On the way, he untied his shackles and tied them around his waist. The originally loose prisoner uniform tightened, revealing his sturdy figure. Then he tapped the ground with his toes, and the next moment he jumped three meters away.
Not long after, Shengze saw Ling Yun's figure.
Ling Yun was very alert. He looked back warily before Sheng Ze approached. When he saw it was him, he immediately made a gesture to keep quiet.
Sheng Ze raised his eyebrows slightly and came to his side silently.
"Master, just after we separated, King Zhao's army surrounded the Jun people. The young lady and her servants didn't even have time to go into the forest and turned back," Ling Yun said with some gloating.
Originally, he had met the princess of the Jun tribe and wanted to teach her some lessons on how to behave, but then he heard shouts and screams from behind. Although the little princess was willful, she was also protective of her people, so she would naturally rush back to rescue them when they were in trouble.
So the little princess glared at Ling Yun fiercely and ran away with her servants.
Sheng Ze pondered for a moment and said softly, "It should be the border patrol troops of King Zhao. It seems that King Zhao has been ambitious for a long time."
As soon as he captured Linzhou, he sent patrol troops to curb the Jun people. King Zhao's ambition is really big.
But this was a sudden turn of events for them at the moment. The Jun people were good at fighting in the mountains and forests. He had no hope that the exile team would escape the Jun people's pursuit. Now, let King Zhao's army harass the Jun people.
"Master, why don't we take this opportunity to kill the little princess?" Ling Yun was eager to try.
The Dajin and Jun people are sworn enemies. He saw clearly just now that the little princess was very skilled, and the servants around her were even more skilled than him. If these two were not eliminated, they might become a hidden danger to the master in the future.
Sheng Ze paused after hearing this, but still shook his head and said, "Now is not the time to cause trouble."
The two of them did not linger any longer and quickly and tacitly chased after the exile team.
Ling Yun felt that his master was not as indifferent to these fugitives as he said, otherwise why didn't he leave?
But think about it, these people are in their current situation entirely because of the master, especially Master Shen's family, it is only natural that the master should take more care of them.
Shen Qingqian and the others had already walked five miles, and everyone was very tired.
"They won't chase us, will they?" Someone couldn't hold on any longer and sat down on the ground, never wanting to get up again.
