"That... is, that's the roar of a tiger..."
"Hurry, run! What are you standing there for?!"
A deafening tiger roar came from the direction of the intersection. The people who stood there in a daze for two seconds reacted, howled immediately, and scattered in all directions as if fleeing.
Just by hearing the roar, I knew that the tiger must have been caught and was chasing me out from this path again...
If you don't run now, when will you run?
Hearing the approaching tiger's roar, Hua Shi looked around again. After making sure that Hua Song and Hua Zhu were not in sight, he hurriedly grabbed Xie Mingchi's arm and ran towards the side of the street.
The tiger must have broken free from the pursuer's grip and followed the scent to chase out.
She had to run far away now, otherwise the tiger would catch up and trip her, and she wouldn't be able to escape...
Unlike the panicked crowd, Hua Shi took this into consideration.
I just don’t know where Hua Song and Hua Zhu ran off to. Maybe they were trapped in the black market and were forced back while taking advantage of the chaos.
This possibility is not impossible. After all, the two men's clothes were tattered, their hair was unkempt, and their bodies were covered with wounds. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that they were slaves in the underground black market.
The indentures of the two of them are still in his hands... He just doesn't know if he can still go in and bring the two of them out after this chaos is over.
Hua Shi's thoughts were in a mess. When she came to her senses, Xie Mingchi had taken her for an unknown distance. Looking at the increasing number of people around them, she knew that they should be some distance away from the black market.
And those who had fled from the black market had long since been buried in the crowd, disappearing without a trace...
"I wonder if Shochiku and the others are still trapped in there..."
Hua Shi let go of Xie Mingchi's hand and said with a frown.
If I'm really still trapped in there, it might be difficult to get out.
Hua Shi unconsciously tugged at the red ribbon tied on her hand and sighed softly.
"Let's go to the entrance and take a look. Maybe the two of them ran out from another path." Xie Mingchi suggested.
After all, the two of them finally came out from the exit, but were delayed for a while on the way. If they didn't wait for anyone, they might have come out from another entrance.
Previously, the entrance and exit were strictly guarded, but because the tiger broke free from the fence and escaped, the guards temporarily left and there was no one watching. The black market became a mess again, and anyone who followed the panicked crowd out would be seen in these two places.
Unless the two of them had ulterior motives after escaping and fled secretly...
The two men reached an agreement and followed the moving crowd, turning a few alleys and arriving at the entrance of the black market with ease.
The entrance was much more lively than the exit. There were many people gathered around, and they seemed to be discussing what had just happened with lingering fear.
Hua Shi tiptoed to look around. Right now, he just wanted to find Songzhu and the other one as soon as possible, and then he had to go back to the inn to pack up his things and return to the village.
I have been out for several days and I don’t know how Hua Yu and the others are doing at home. Now that things are almost done, I have to hurry back.
While spending time thinking about it, he also arranged the subsequent arrangements.
"Ashi, this way."
Xie Mingchi, who was behind her, suddenly put his arm around her shoulders and led her in one direction.
Hua Shi followed his force and saw two people squatting in the corner of the wall...looking miserable.
They are Huasong and Huazhu.
"Why are you two sitting on the ground?"
A gentle voice came from above his head. Hua Zhu's eyes lit up and he looked up quickly, "I...I, it's him...My eldest brother's wound hurts, so he sits on the ground to rest." We'll wait for you to come find us.
Hua Zhu didn't say the last sentence. The words that came to his mouth were stumbling. His two hands were rubbed together nervously. His dark, bright eyes were wide open as he looked up at Hua Shi.
Hua Shi's gaze fell on Hua Song's naked back, which was covered with whip marks in all directions. Some of the bloody wounds were hidden by his long and messy hair. In addition, his head was bent and lowered, and his whole body was almost curled up and buried in his chest.
"Help the man up first, find a clinic, treat his wounds, and then go back."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xie Mingchi stepped forward, walked to the side of Hua Song, exerted force with his arms, and easily pulled the person up.
Hua Song buried his head, feeling his vision becoming increasingly blurry. He wondered if it was because his injuries were too severe, or what...
There are several commercial streets in Taohua Town. Although there is only one larger medical clinic, Renyaotang, there are also some small clinics.
I found a small clinic nearby. It was called a small clinic, but it was actually just a clinic on the street. There was a table and two chairs, and a yellow flag hanging on the side with a few big words written on it. It didn't even have a storefront.
The doctor had a goatee, frowning eyebrows and big eyes, and the skin on his face was wrinkled and tightly packed together. He looked to be about forty or fifty years old.
He first took the pulse of Hua Song, who was so weak that he was almost half-fainted, and then asked someone to come over and was about to flip over his eyeballs under his eyelids. Unexpectedly, he saw a half-burned face that suddenly appeared in his field of vision, and he was frightened.
"You...your face."
The doctor blurted out these words subconsciously, retracted his hand, and swept his eyes over the people present. His expression was somewhat complicated, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Hua Song's fuzzy thoughts were shaken. This sentence was like a basin of cold water pouring down on him from head to toe. He suddenly lowered his head, hid the burned half of his face again, covered it with one hand, and remained silent.
