Chapter 70 Scary
Two of the four masterminds framed Zhu Li lost their territory. Li Keyong was fine, and he also had the title of Hedong Jiedu. It should not be difficult to conquer Hedong under the righteousness.
But it would be bad that he died at the hands of Zhu Li. The hatred between Shatuo people and Zhu Li was undoubtedly a big deal.
As for Li Sigong, he could only wait until Emperor Xizong returned to the east before finding a way to obtain territory.
Zhu Li couldn't know what happened outside. Since he jumped into the Wei River, he immediately left the place where he fell into the water, took off his armor in the water, and even threw away the steel spear and long sword.
Fortunately, when Wu Dao was training him, he always asked for extreme training. He sneaked desperately in the water along the direction of the water flow, but he couldn't hold it in. He just looked at the place where there were aquatic plants, carefully slid the aquatic plants, and only stuck their mouths and noses out of the water, took a deep breath, and continued to sneak along the current without going ashore at all, without showing his head.
Such uninterrupted sneaking, he swallowed the turbid and bitter river water when he was thirsty, and when he was hungry, he either chewed the aquatic plants in the river or took out some fish and shrimp when he was lucky. At this time, he could not care about the rawness and ripeness, and he swallowed them all in one.
He endured so hard and persisted for more than 40 days, but he was still in the water. At this time, he had already left the Wei River and entered the Yellow River.
On a dark and windy night, Zhu Li was in the water and found a mountain on the north bank of the Yellow River. She quietly slipped up and plunged into the mountains.
It was almost August, and under the night moon, the mountains were high and there were many mosquitoes, the summer wind was unpleasant, and it was dull and irritable.
Zhu Li, who had already left her armor, had only a single dress stuck to her body. In addition, she had soaked in water for more than 40 days, and her whole body was white and tender, and she could almost pinch it out of water in one hand, so she could withstand the bites of these mosquitoes.
But shortly after walking, he changed his appearance, his head full of blood bags bitten by mosquitoes, and even scratched many places by rocks and thorns. If someone saw him at this time, he would definitely be scared to death.
At this moment, he had his hair disheveled, his face covered in blood, his white underwear, and his torn skin, but his exposed skin was extremely pale and very terrifying.
In addition, he walked like a flying person and his body was erratic. At first glance, he was not a human being, he was simply a wild ghost traveling.
On the distant hillside, a swaying light caught his attention. He was bitten by the mosquitoes on the mountain. Zhu Li was not worried about so many things. She took big steps with her barefoots and rushed towards the direction of the swaying lights.
When I got closer, I realized that this was a family. The small courtyard made of rocks looked very strong. Below the swaying lights in the courtyard, there was a faint smoke rising, and a scent of mugwort wafted in the wind, which was very comfortable.
The place where the fragrance filled, there were fewer mosquitoes, which made Zhu Li feel relieved.
But looking back, it feels very funny. He never frowned when facing thousands of troops, but this evil mosquito almost lost his mind just now. It's really ridiculous.
Just as he was about to knock on the door and stay, his figure suddenly paused and thought to himself that he was hiding now. If he was discovered by Tian Lingzi's dead men, he would not be very afraid of the other party. His internal injuries had already healed most of them, and it should not be a problem to escape from those people's entanglement.
But if he entered this family and was discovered by Tian Lingzi, it would probably drag down the people of this family. Thinking of this, he instantly gave up the idea of staying alone.
He slowly turned around and walked to a windy outlet near the house. The moxa fragrance was moving and sat down. With the moxa fragrance floating over and the smoke, he avoided the moxa insects in the mountains and planned to stay until dawn.
But sometimes, I don’t bother with others. As soon as Zhu Li sat down, the gate of this family was opened from the inside.
A strong, fierce man walked out with a bow and a knife. Apparently he heard the movement outside and came out to investigate.
Zhu Li didn't hide at all, and sat openly at the wind, allowing the man to see him at a glance.
In the eyes of the thick and powerful man, a black shadow lies on the rocks with disheveled hair. The breeze is coming, the white clothes are fluttering, and sometimes they will squirm, looking very cunning.
Facing the hazy moonlight, the man didn't see it very clearly, but such a strange image made the man feel scared and secretly shocked. However, he still plucked up his courage and asked Zhu Li loudly: "Who is there in the middle of the night?"
In fact, when the gate of the courtyard sounded, Zhu Li felt something was wrong. She wanted to turn around and leave, but the rough man not only asked him, but also took off the bow and arrow on his shoulder and aimed at him. For a soldier who had been on the battlefield for a long time, even if he didn't look back, he could sense the sharpness of the sharp arrows. This discovery made him smile bitterly.
There was no choice but to turn his head and bow. However, before he could speak, he saw the big man looking at his eyes and suddenly glaring. A big fluffy mouth opened instantly, and it was more than enough to stuff a fist.
His face also "brushed" and became pale, and even his body became trembling. Even the bow and arrow in his hand seemed to be shaking under the trembling of his body, and he could hardly hold it.
"Damn, what a ghost, it's a ghost." The man blurted out at Zhu Li, and his horrified expression almost didn't know how to take a step.
While looking at Zhu Li in horror, he stretched out his hand in panic and waved wildly in the direction of the courtyard, shouting loudly: "Xiaoqian, Xiaoqian, come quickly, come and help me, I'm hitting evil, I've seen a ghost."
Such movements outside, especially the strong man's wailing and shrill shouting, immediately alarmed the people in the yard. A woman's voice immediately sounded from the yard, mixed with disdain, and roared angrily: "What are the ghosts shouting? It's midnight, what should I do if the child is scared?"
"Xiaoqian, come quickly, I'm really damn." Seeing that the woman seemed to not believe her, she had no intention of coming out. This big and thick man almost cried, even his voice was hoarse.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Li was amused and crying, and helplessly looked at herself in the moonlight, and had to speak out: "Brother, I am not a ghost, I am just a down-and-out person who has fallen into the mountains."
When the strong man saw Zhu Li speak, his expression still flashed. He carefully looked at Zhu Li again before tremblingly saying, "You, you, are you really not a ghost?"
Just when the strong man was skeptical, a shrew suddenly walked out of the yard. This man was big and thick.
The fluff under the nose was facing the moonlight, clearly visible. He was holding a kitchen knife in his hand and striding out of the yard, looking angry and said, "Dear ghost, what are you calling? Where are the ghosts?"
While scolding the strong man, she followed his gaze and looked in the direction of Zhu Li. With this glance, the shrew instantly turned into a frightened deer. She saw her trembling all over, and the kitchen knife in her hand was immediately thrown away. She turned around and rushed into the yard at a faster speed than before. A more shrill scream followed: "Ghost, ghost, dead ghost, run quickly, hurry up."
However, at this time, although the strong man was still very nervous, he believed that Zhu Li was no longer a ghost. With the hazy moonlight and a cool breeze, he could vaguely see hot air scattering out of Zhu Li's nose and mouth, which made him calm down.
The strong man consciously put away his bow and arrow, plucked up his courage to walk towards Zhu Li, and said, "Since my brother is not a mountain ghost, why did he run to my door in the middle of the night?"
When Zhu Li saw the strong man's movements, she felt relieved and sighed: "I don't want to have too many mosquitoes in the jungle. I was so anxious that I wanted to find a place with few mosquitoes."
"In my brother's yard, mugwort is burning. The wormwood is wafting out. I stayed here with a lot of mosquitoes. I just stopped here. I hope I will forgive me if I disturb you." Zhu Li said apologetically.
When the strong man heard this, he immediately believed it. He was a hunter in the mountains. Naturally, he knew how fierce mosquitoes were in the jungle in the mountains in the middle of summer. So he completely took off his guard and bowed sincerely: "It made my brother laugh, but my brother's appearance almost scared me, a rough man. It's really scary. Okay, if my brother doesn't mind, please come into the house and sit down."
Zhu Li hesitated for a moment when she heard this, but in the end she followed the strong man into the yard. A woman was trembling next to the fire in the yard. Her big and thick body was trembling and a rolling pin was in her hand. When Zhu Li entered the yard, she looked at Zhu Li carefully and carefully under the light.
Seeing the woman's appearance, Zhu Li secretly felt funny, but the stout man couldn't hold his face anymore. He looked like a majestic face and pretended to be majestic: "I don't know, I'm scared to you. It's so embarrassing that a living living person can scare you like this."
However, when he said this, he forgot what he looked like before, and he was almost scared to pee just now.
However, these two men are also old couples. The woman was sure that Zhu Li was really not a ghost queen. He heard that he didn't buy it at all. She glared at him and said angrily: "I am the only one who is scared like this? I don't know who she was just now, so I almost cried."
With the lights, the woman looked at Zhu Li carefully again and found that the other party, except for the disheveled hair and broken clothes, was not counted as the traces of being bitten by mosquitoes, but also a very heroic young man. She felt relieved and muttered herself, then put down the rolling pin in her hand.
