Chapter 51: Lost, Escape
When they returned to the inn, Lin Qian saw that Meng Yi was not lying on the bed sleeping, but was keeping his eyes open, waiting for them to come back.
"Master, just rest if you are tired. I have already told you that we will come back safely." Lin Qian said with some heartache when she saw his look.
When Meng Yi and Xu Jingcheng saw the three people coming back, their worries finally subsided.
Seeing the blood on Lin Qian and Lin Shuo, Meng Yi quickly waved and said, "Come here and let me see, are you injured?"
Lin Shuo was immediately touched. Uncle Meng was just better to him than Brother Wei Jing.
He thought about it and stretched out his hand for Meng Yi to feel his pulse.
Who knew that Meng Yi placed his hand directly on Lin Qian's wrist without even looking at his hand.
Lin Shuo felt cold all over and looked up at the sky speechlessly. No one cared about him. Never mind, he was used to it.
Just as he was about to withdraw his hand, Xu Jingcheng placed three fingers on Lin Shuo's wrist.
Lin Shuo immediately warmed up and looked at Xu Jingcheng, thinking that there were still people who cared about him.
After a while, Xu Jingcheng withdrew his hand.
"How is it?" Lin Shuo asked.
Xu Jingcheng said, "Master Shuo Shuo, your pulse is strong and powerful. I have never seen anyone as healthy as you. You don't even need someone to take your pulse. Even if you're injured and bleed a little, it's okay."
The most well-behaved person, who spoke the most truthful things, deliberately stabbed Lin Shuo in the heart.
Lin Shuo continued to stare at the sky in silence.
"Master, let's leave the Western Regions now." Lin Qian said to Meng Yi.
They rescued people in the Western Regions. If the matter was exposed, they would definitely be hunted down, so it was better for them to leave quickly.
Meng Yi nodded.
The five people checked out and left immediately.
Not long after they left, soldiers from the Western Regions found the inn where they had just stayed.
This time the primary mission has been completed. Lin Qian and her companions left the Western Regions directly and did not plan to travel any further. They rushed home as quickly as possible.
It’s better not to wander around now.
However, the five people did not know that when they left the border and just returned to Linjia Village, the Western Region soldiers colluded with the grassland soldiers and sent large forces to attack Yongyao.
King Ping An led his army to fight against the enemy, but fell into a trap and was defeated.
Within a few days, Yuan Hui, the general guarding the border, was shot dead on the battlefield because he was in a state of panic because his family was controlled by the enemy.
At the border, one of the gates was lost!
Linjia Village, midnight.
Lin Qian and a few others were awakened by the sound of gongs and drums. They were all sleepy, so they got dressed and saw what was happening outside.
They just heard the noise outside, and suddenly a sentence came clearly into their ears.
"The border has been lost! The enemy is coming soon, run for your lives!"
Lin Qian's heart skipped a beat and she turned to look at Lin Wu and the others.
Lin Wu frowned, then immediately said to the others, "Hurry up and pack your luggage. Keep the money close to you. I'll go get the carriage. Regardless of whether it's true or not, let's escape together first."
Several people responded immediately. Lin Changcan stood up, his hands and legs trembling violently, then he covered his chest, looking like he couldn't breathe.
Meng Yi frowned and came over, took a look and said, "He's been frightened too much, I'm afraid he's about to faint."
Lin Qian hummed, then pinched Lin Changcan's neck, knocking him unconscious.
"That's a good idea too." Meng Yi watched Lin Qian's movements but didn't stop her. As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Qian also squeezed him unconscious.
Afterwards, silver needles were inserted into the sleeping holes of both of them.
After doing all this, Lin Qian turned to look at Zhao Xiu and said, "Mom, I'm taking you into the space. You watch over them and don't let them wake up."
Zhao Xiu nodded immediately.
"Shuo Shuo, Dad, you guys go in too. I'm alone and I'm a smaller conspicuous person, so I'll definitely run faster." Lin Qian said to Lin Shuo and Lin Wu again.
Lin Wu shook his head and said, "Stop talking nonsense. Get your mother and the other two into the space. The three of us will escape. At least there will be someone to look after us."
Lin Qian hesitated for a moment and said okay.
After getting the three people into the space, Lin Qian took some clothes and quilts and put them into the space. At this time, they heard the sound of horse hooves.
It seems that the enemy is really coming.
"Qianqian, hurry up, put the carriage into the space." Lin Wu shouted immediately.
Lin Qian frowned. The space was not big to begin with, and she didn't know if it could accommodate a carriage. After trying it, she found that it could actually fit in, but the space was already packed.
"Let's go!" Lin Shuo pulled Lin Qian, and the three of them immediately jumped onto the roof.
Lin Qian glanced back and saw that their village was bustling with activity. Countless villagers were fleeing, some on horseback and some were herding cattle.
In the distance, Lin Qian saw soldiers from the Western Regions and the grasslands holding torches and riding tall horses. At a glance, they were all people.
The three of them ran forward for a long distance, and Lin Qian and Lin Shuo shouted at the same time: "Brother Wei Jing!"
They were thinking about escaping and forgot about Wei Jing and Zhang Yufang.
Seeing that the enemy was still some distance away from them, the three of them gritted their teeth and decided to go back to find them.
At worst, if we encounter danger, we can all hide in the space.
But when he arrived at Wei Jing's house, he found no one in the house.
"They may have left first. If we didn't see them, it means everything is fine. Let's leave first." Lin Wu said.
As they were talking, an arrow fell from the sky and hit the wooden door of Wei Jing's house. Then, they heard the long neighing of a horse, and it sounded very close to them.
"Let's go." Lin Qian said, pulling Lin Shuo with one hand and Lin Wu with the other.
The three of them jumped onto the eaves and continued running away.
In the darkness, only the torches in the hands of the enemy behind him illuminated everything around him, and the rest was pitch black.
Lin Qian and the other two, who were only concerned about escaping, did not notice that two figures jumped out of their yard and ran in the opposite direction of them.
Go east and north at the same time.
Lin Qian and the other two used Qinggong to run for a long time. They passed by many villages and towns, but they were all empty and everyone was running for their lives.
Finally, when the sky was just getting light, Lin Qian and her friends found the village chief and the villagers.
Lin Qian immediately moved the carriage out of the space and placed Lin Changcan and Meng Yi on it. Lin Wu drove the carriage to meet up with the villagers.
"Grandpa Village Chief, why are there so few people in the village? Where are the others?" Lin Qian looked at the people in Linjia Village and found that only half of them were here. She did not see Wei Jing and the others, so she couldn't help but ask.
The village chief was also an old man who could not stand the ordeal. He was so frightened that he lay dozing in the carriage. After hearing Lin Qian's words, he muttered, "The villagers can run east or north. The rest of the people should just go east."
Lin Qian said "oh" and stopped talking.
Their home was close to the east, so when they escaped before, they did run to the east. Later, they turned back to find Wei Jing and the others, and ran to the north.
It seems that Wei Jing and the others should be in the eastern team.
No matter where you go, as long as you are alive, it's fine.
