To Rule in a Turbulent World

Chapter 136 Volume 3 Man Jianghong

Late at night, outside the Blue Pass.

You Miao and others finally found a place to stay. The horses had been running for a day and a night. Even if people could stand it, the horses couldn't stand it, so the horses had to rest.In a cave in a low valley, the fire flickered on and off. The entrance of the cave was covered by a big rock, and the outside was piled up with branches and other sundries to block the light.The horse was tied not far from the entrance of the cave, chewing the dry grass under the tree.

You Miao stared at the fire, since he said goodbye to Li Zhifeng, he was so silent that he almost changed himself.

The cave was very crowded, the women huddled in the innermost part of the cave, while the men stood guard near the entrance of the cave.Li Yan lay beside the fire, weeping silently, then began to cry, then cried louder and louder, and finally let out a painful roar.

Ping Xi, who was on guard at night, hurried over and said, "Keep your voice down!"

You Miao went over to check on Li Yan, with guilt and pain in his eyes, tightly clutching the jade pendant left by Liu Shaling.Everyone knew what he was crying about, but no one dared to say it.

——He was crying about the Tang family, about his incompetence, he couldn't even protect his own wife, and humiliated her when the country was subjugated.Now everyone has escaped, and his wife is still in the enemy camp... How will the Tatars treat Tang after they find out that they have escaped... You Miao dare not think about it.

He hugged Li Yan and let him lean on his shoulder, Li Yan just stared blankly at the bonfire.

"Gao Lan was taken away, Si Lujian..." Li Yan murmured.

"The Zhanzhan River is full of water, and there is a maple on it..." Qian Hui said in harmony, seeming to arouse the grief of the teenagers for a moment.Several people sang Song Yu's Call of the Soul in unison, their voices were low and hoarse.

"The eyes are so far away, it hurts the heart of spring, the soul is gone and comes back, mourning the south of the Yangtze River..." You Miao sang along with everyone.

No one walked ahead, and no one mentioned the past. After singing this song, they ate the last bit of bread that You Miao brought out, and then fell asleep to save their energy.After all, he still has to escape at dawn, but no one knows where the escape will end.

Escaping the Yellow River, escaping Jiangjunling, escaping the Yangtze River, I don’t know if Huahua Jiangnan is as sensual as it used to be?In two months, the peach blossoms will bloom, and it's time for Jiangbo Villa to plant rapeseed.However, Li Zhifeng, who accompanied him every year, will stay in the north and never return to Jiangnan.

In the dream, You Miao seemed to have returned to Jiangbo Mountain Villa, with peach blossoms and willow leaves fluttering in the ten miles.And at this moment, Ping Xi woke You Miao up with bloodshot eyes.

"Ziqian, wake up! I suspect there are Tatars nearby!"

You Miao woke up suddenly, got up and followed Pingxi out of the cave, climbed up to a high place with hands and feet, and saw a dragon lined up with torches on the plain in the distance.

"It's not a Tatar." You Miao knew it at a glance: "Tatars don't move around the mountains at night, they are probably Hu people, and look..."

You Miao pointed to the other side and said, "They probably aren't looking for us. The direction is wrong. It's the southwest of Qinling Mountains."

Ping Xi said: "There are still Han people here?"

You Miao shook his head, he couldn't tell for sure, but in any case, he couldn't reveal his whereabouts at this moment, otherwise troubles would suddenly happen.He briefly discussed with Ping Xi, both of them used to be civilians and soldiers, and they could probably feel some rules, so they decided not to startle the snakes, and not to leave the cave, but just put out the fire in the cave.

However, the people in the cave probably felt something, but they didn't ask. In the early morning of the next day, You Miao let the rest of the people go on the road. Some people had caught a cold and started to have a fever, and some even passed out.You Miao didn't dare to procrastinate any longer, and let the unconscious man lie on the horse and follow the team.

It takes three full days to cross the Qinling Mountains, and these people's physical fitness is extremely poor, and the weather is freezing, and they may have to delay on the road.The most troublesome thing is that they have nothing to eat.

Food must be found today, or we will all be overwhelmed.Hunger, chasing soldiers, cold, sickness, this is the most desperate moment.When the sun was three poles high, You Miao was both hungry and sleepy, and felt dizzy for a while. The horses lined up and moved slowly on the cliff stone road. Occasionally, small stones fell and fell into the abyss.

Li Yan's eyes were blue with sunken eyes, the rest of the teenagers were all skinny, and some even developed a high fever and muttered nonsense.You Miao stopped on a platform at noon and told them to rest on the spot and eat a few mouthfuls of snow.

"Your Excellency." A woman came over, her body was dirty, but her beauty was not diminished a little, and she gave him a blessing.

You Miao stood in the cold wind and looked down the mountain, and saw the traces of trees being cut down in the valley in the distance, and turned her head, "Madam Huang?" .Huang Yuan is an old man and a young wife. His wife is only 22 years old and has a very beautiful appearance.Huang Yuan was dead when the city was broken, but Wei survived.

Wei Shi: "Sisters have a few words to say, they thought about it, sent me over, and wanted to say it to Mr. You."

You Miao thought that something happened to them again, and hurriedly said: "If we let us run first, forget it, we have all escaped here, it is impossible to leave you..."

Wei hurriedly stopped You Miao, and said with a smile: "No, my lord, you misunderstood. I came to thank you for saving your life. Although you are young, you are the leader of all the officials in the court. Apocalypse has you, it is God Blessed."

You Miao hurriedly gave way, and Wei said softly: "That day, your guards rescued us and killed dozens of people. He was extremely brave. The second princess asked him, and he only said that it was your order. Yesterday blue A farewell to Guan, we all know that Master You is sad to lose this loyal servant. But people have joys and sorrows, please for the sake of the apocalypse, for the great cause of the Central Plains... remember to mourn, and never hurt your body with grief."

You Miao understood that when Wei and the other women saw that he was sad but did not show it, they were afraid that he would become ill, so they spoke to comfort him.

You Miao hummed, nodded, and said, "Thank you, Mrs. Huang."

As soon as he looked up, he saw all the girls with pale lips, warming themselves around the fire, looking towards him from time to time, with worried expressions on their faces, and he was moved in his heart, saying: "Everyone support each other, just go back, we are already here , don’t fall on the road.”

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of fighting from the foot of the mountain, mixed with people's screams.Everyone was shocked at once, and You Miao immediately said: "Don't panic! Stay here! Come and see with me!"

You Miao untied the bow and arrow from the horse and took up the quiver, but someone said: "Ziqian, we should run away! It's not suitable to stay here for long!"

You Miao said: "No, let's see the situation first, what if the Han army is fighting the Hu people?"

You Miao rode down the mountain on a horse, and saw clearly on the mountainside, it was indeed a group of Han people fighting with the Hu people, and the battle robes seemed to be Xianbei people.The Han people couldn't tell which unit they belonged to, and Ping Xi wanted to shout, but You Miao stopped him.The strength of the two sides was equal, and You Miao counted secretly, one five, ten, fifteen... Twenty Xianbei soldiers and twelve Han people were shooting arrows across a stream.

While escaping, they were shot to death a few more. They were thrown into chaos immediately, and finally ran along the edge of the woods, running towards them.
