Chapter 178: Chasing and Escape
Gu Feixue was stunned.
For a long time, she sat among the broken walls.
Yuchi Shuo had found the skeletons of the two people from the collapsed corner of the wall.
"They are here, Xue'er." Yuchi Shuo approached respectfully and gently moved the two bodies.
The raging flames of last night had completely burned away the flesh and tissues on the bodies. The two bodies were hugging each other tightly, interpreting their eternal love.
Seeing this, Gu Feixue felt sad.
"Maybe if they had let us out this wouldn't have happened."
She felt extremely guilty and wanted to cut those soldiers into pieces.
A lot of people came last night. She vaguely remembered that the leading officer had a big beard and a stronger nasal tone than his accent. He seemed to be from Shanxi.
And those little minions, Gu Feixue could no longer remember them all.
Yuchi Shuo sighed, "It was you who helped us."
"Let's put them to rest, and then..." Gu Feixue was about to cry, but she held back her tears, "Avenge them."
"If I don't take revenge, I'm not a gentleman!"
The two men found farm tools and chose a paradise on earth in Taohuawu to bury them.
The two of them had a tacit understanding and did not erect a tombstone.
Everything was ready. Gu Feixue kowtowed three times and bowed nine times before preparing to leave with him.
This place is not far from Jiangzhou, and you can see layers of city walls.
"How do we get into town?"
"Don't be anxious. It's easy to go wrong if you do something by mistake." Gu Feixue looked at Yuchi Shuo.
She finally smiled and said, "You haven't even gone to the battlefield yet and you're already in this state. What are we going to do when we encounter a strong enemy later?"
"this……"
Yuchi Shuo also laughed.
Gu Feixue found a car and asked Yuchi Shuo to get in.
It is March, the season when peach blossoms bloom. The scene before our eyes is a sea of red and green, which is very beautiful.
"Tomorrow, when I'm better, I'll push you for a walk and show you the flowers and plants."
"Is it a deal?"
"That's natural."
The two did not enter the city, but went in the opposite direction.
There was a village in the distance, with the sounds of chickens and dogs. Gu Feixue was thirsty and was about to find someone to ask for a drink of water, but when she thought about how she had inexplicably implicated Yunqiao and Chunya last night, she hesitated to move forward.
Yuchi Shuo knew what she meant, "Then let's find a place nearby to rest."
She nodded and looked out to see farmland in the distance.
There is nothing in this season, and it is as withered as a head that has been razored.
This road was not easy to walk on, so the two of them walked forward one step deep and one step shallow. Gu Feixue had received rigorous training in her previous life and had experience and insights into polar survival.
"Here it is."
Gu Feixue looked into the distance.
"In the cemetery?"
There are dense ancient cypresses and bamboo forests here, which are vast and boundless.
It's a bit creepy during the day.
A chilling and eerie air hit me in the face, and even the refreshing wild flowers didn't smell as pleasant. Tombs were lined up one after another, some with steles, while others were leaning to one side.
It is still a long time before the Qingming Festival, so there are few people here.
“Ordinary people wouldn’t hide here.”
In her previous life, Gu Feixue was on a mission and had an conflict with some drug lords in Myanmar. That day, she panicked and hid in a cemetery. She thought she would be captured alive, but she didn't know that the group of traitors stayed away from the cemetery, so she managed to escape.
Since then, Gu Feixue has had a "special liking" for graves.
Probably no one in ancient China or abroad likes to hang out in cemeteries anymore.
She glanced around and said, "There's a huge tombstone over there, and there seems to be a thatched house behind it. I think it can provide shelter from the wind and rain. Why don't we go over there?"
The two men were at their wit's end and had nowhere else to turn, so this was indeed a hiding place for them.
There was no gravekeeper.
The house was dilapidated, but there were many sacks inside. Gu Feixue opened one and found that it was filled with chaff.
"Hahaha, what a treat!"
With a lot of experience in outdoor activities, Gu Feixue knows what can be eaten and what is absolutely not edible.
Some colorful mushrooms are not poisonous, while some plants look edible but are deadly to the throat.
All of this is the result of years of training.
Of course, husks cannot be eaten. If you want to eat them, they need to go through a series of procedures such as soaking, grinding, etc.
Yuchi Shuo was starving, and Gu Feixue was not much better.
She went outside to find some plants, picked out the slightly plump chaff, and soaked it in cold water until it swelled up. She kneaded the shepherd's purse and the grains into balls, placed them on a red-hot stone to bake, and soon the aroma filled her nose.
"Don't stir, old man. Just sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor."
Seeing that Yuchi Shuo was ready to help her, Gu Feixue reminded him and sent Tuanzi over.
The taste of this dumpling is actually very good, but it is a bit bland.
After the two of them had a hearty meal, Gu Feixue "destroyed the body and covered the traces of charcoal with soil, and threw the rest into the river. After everything was done, they went to the river to get water.
Yuchi Shuo was afraid of danger and insisted on following.
But Gu Feixue smiled and handed the only dagger she carried with her to Yuchi Shuo. "You take it. I'll be back soon. It's only a few steps away. How can there be any danger? Besides, I can adapt to the situation."
She made a big face at him.
"Don't make trouble, wait for me here."
Yuchi Shuo also knew that he was not in good condition and might even become a burden to others.
So I can only wait patiently where I am.
The two of them separated for a short time, but Gu Feixue kept looking back.
As a result, Yuchi Shuo also stood at the door holding a wooden stick as a crutch.
From this perspective, it looks like an old man is looking forward to the return of his children, especially the way he staggers and moves, which makes him look no different from an empty-nest elderly person.
She smiled.
But as I laughed, I felt uncomfortable again.
"Chunya, Yunqiao, I won't let your deaths be in vain."
As he spoke, Gu Feixue had already gone away.
After walking for a while, he suddenly saw a girl dressed in silk and satin. The girl was sitting by the river, looking gloomy and seemed to be in pain.
"Hey, you... who are you? What are you doing here?" Gu Feixue threw a small stone over. Although the woman turned around, she had a face that was breathtakingly beautiful.
"Girl, help me, girl, can you come to my house and find a servant to come over? I was just bitten by a snake and it hurts."
"My home is not far away. Over there... the one with the white wooden door is my home."
Gu Feixue looked over there and saw a mansion as expected, and the white wooden door of the mansion was particularly eye-catching.
Seeing this, Gu Feixue frowned.
She can't even protect herself, so I want to help her but I'm powerless.
To be honest, she didn't want to see the tragedy of Yunqiao and Chunya happen again.
"I'm looking for water. Sorry, I can't help you."
She gritted her teeth and prepared to leave.
