Chapter 36: Life is never equal
Shu Hui didn't care about Deng Pu's departure, as if he helped Deng Pu just to be righteous. He saw the injustice of the road. He sneered constantly as he watched Deng Pu's figure disappear into the dense forest. He sat cross-legged and slowly adjusted his breathing. The seriously injured master was also a master, and it was indeed not something he could resist. If he hadn't joined forces with Deng Pu, his subordinates would have been given away for free.
Thinking of the previous battle with Zuo Lixing, it was terrifying. It was hard to imagine that a dying person had such power. However, this battle was also of great help to him. Although the injured self would cause his realm to fall into a level in a short period of time, not everyone has the opportunity to have this experience of fighting with the Grandmaster's life and death and still survive. This will be of great benefit to his future. After he is injured, he will take a big step forward.
Several men in black ran out of the forest, stood beside Shu Hui with his hands hanging down. Seeing Shu Hui was healing, they all turned into statues and remained silent.
After a long time, Shu Hui slowly opened his eyes, "Have you found their trace?"
"Reply to the general's words, Qin Feng is quite cunning and seems to be a veteran in this industry. He set up many traps that lure people on the wrong path along the way, which took us a lot of time." A man in black bowed.
"That's just that I haven't found it yet?" Shu Hui's voice suddenly became cold.
"Reply to the general's words, although it has not been found yet, the scope has been narrowed to the minimum range. It will take at most one or two days before we can find their traces."
"One to two days?" Shu Hui raised his head, "Princess Zhaohua's serious injury has not healed. They must not be able to walk fast. One to two days is enough. They will never get out of the Luoying Mountains and cannot reach the territory of Qi. Let your subordinates go, and if this fails, they will not come back."
"Yes, General."
At dawn, Gao Yuan walked into the cave again. He had already cleaned up, including all the traces of people in the cave, leaving only Min Ruoxi. After the tossing and crying and sadness in the middle of the night yesterday, Min Ruoxi was sleeping soundly. Qin Feng was standing, staring at the face opposite, and for the first time he felt that Min Ruoxi was really beautiful. She still maintained the posture when Qin Feng put her down yesterday, but her figure was concave and convex. It was really a ridge and peak, with different heights.
The tears were still there. When Qin Feng thought of the scene last night, he couldn't help but feel hot. This was the first time in his life that he had contacted a woman so intimately, and had broken through the boundaries that should be under normal circumstances.
"It's urgent to follow the power, right?" Qin Feng murmured in a low voice.
It seemed that Qin Feng's self-talk woke Min Ruoxi up in her sleep. Her long eyelashes moved slightly. She opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was that Qin Feng was standing in front of her. Subconsciously, she suddenly closed her eyes, as if she remembered something, and her face turned red again.
"Your Highness, it's time for us to set off." Qin Feng said.
The eyeballs under the nose turned a few times, and finally opened their eyes helplessly, "Is it dawn? It's time to leave."
"Your Highness, can you move?" Qin Feng asked hopefully, and the answer he received was a helpless and bitter smile. Still unable to move, he could only tie it on his back and leave like yesterday. Just as he squatted down, Min Ruoxi shouted, "Wait a minute, shouldn't he wash his face?"
"Wash your face?" Qin Feng was stunned. He didn't wash himself. During the battle, he would not have this concept in his life of escape, because he thought it was a waste of time, but it was obvious that the woman in front of him did not think so.
But the princess is the princess. Although she made a request, her tone was commanding. Qin Feng could only take off the skin on his waist, pour some clear water wet a piece of brocade handkerchief on His Highness the Princess's waist, and gently wiped it for the other party.
After last night's incident, although the two of them once again had skin kinship today, both sides seemed natural and no longer had the awkwardness and discomfort. Of course, Qin Feng's hands were too heavy, which made Min Ruoxi frown involuntarily again.
"Is I that dirty? I need so much effort to wipe it?" Min Ruoxi asked half-jokingly.
Qin Feng smiled embarrassedly: "I have never done this job before. It's not important. Your princess will do it."
After washing the other person's face, he hugged her and walked out of the hole, sorted out all the traces in the hole, walked out of the hole, put the spiders collected yesterday in the weeds, and then walked over and carried Min Ruoxi on his back, and tied them firmly with the rattan.
"What are you doing?" Min Ruoxi asked curiously.
"It won't take long to get these spiders weave many webs at the entrance of the cave, which makes it harder for those who follow them to find it. Even if they find a hole here, as long as they don't enter the hole, they still cannot find the traces we left." As he said this, Qin Feng couldn't help but look in the direction of the dead branches he broke yesterday. Although he was very careful, the place was scattered very wide, and there were only a few small roots in each area, but they naturally fell off and broke them artificially. In the eyes of experienced people, they can still be easily distinguished.
This is a woman's trouble. If she was alone, she would never leave such flaws. Fortunately, Deng Pu is not a top expert in this field, or she can get away with it.
"Let's go!" He walked forward with Min Ruoxi on his back. "Princess, I will feed you food while walking. Remember, don't spit the leftovers on the ground casually. Tell me, I will deal with these things."
"I understand." Min Ruoxi said softly. It took only a short day to spend with Qin Feng, but this day was enough to make her unforgettable for the rest of her life. In addition to the indescribable scene last night, the powerful combat power and extremely rich escape experience displayed by Qin Feng opened her eyes. She was not too unfamiliar with these things, because the Jiying Palace of the Great Chu under her control was a place where experts in the martial arts world gathered, and of course there were also good players in this field. But Qin Feng's performance made Min Ruoxi feel that those so-called experiences of those good players are completely a fighter in front of Qin Feng.
"Do you usually do this? Where did you learn these things from?" Min Ruoxi asked curiously.
Qin Feng smiled bitterly, "These things are all exchanged for life. His Royal Highness the Princess lives in the capital for a long time, so naturally I don't know the suffering of us. To put it bluntly, we are just people who are ready to die at any time, but who would willingly die early? After repeated battles, we will pursue the enemy, which will allow us to learn something. If we fail, we want to escape. When we run away, we will inspire people's escape instinct and try our best to hide our own traces. Gradually, with more people dead, the summed up experience will naturally increase. These things are piled up by human lives."
Listening to Qin Feng's bitter voice, Min Ruoxi couldn't help but feel silent. They were aloof and accustomed to the prosperity of the capital, so naturally they would not think that those magnificent and leisurely things were all exchanged for their lives by the frontier soldiers.
"Did the princess know how many people have died in total since the completion of the suicide camp?" Qin Feng asked.
"have no idea."
"Since our death camp built its own camp, a total of 10,68 people died. This was only after I became the camp lieutenant, and it was impossible to count it before."
"But I heard that there are death row prisoners in the suicide camp."
"Yes, they are sinners, death row prisoners, and they deserve death, but for me, they are all warriors and my brothers, because they all fall on the battlefield and die under the enemy's sword. Each of them may not live brilliantly, but they die heroically enough." Qin Feng's voice fell. "They used blood to wash away their past shame, not to mention, among these people, some of them could have been considered good people, but they fell to this point for various different reasons. At the beginning of human beings, they are born with good natures, so who was born to be bad people?"
Min Ruoxi was speechless.
"Do you miss your brothers?" she asked softly.
"Of course." Qin Feng nodded, "I don't know how they are now? The Western Qin army invaded, including the elite Thunder Army of the Western Qin. I don't know if Anyang City can be defended? In fact, what is important is whether the Western Qin people want to attack Anyang City. If they really intend to take Anyang County, the number of people in the Death Camp is really not enough."
"Don't there still more than 10,000 troops in Anyang County?"
"They?" Qin Feng laughed, "It's okay for them to bully the common people. If they really want to go into battle, they will be scared to death with the enemy's roar. Does Your Highness know that among this county soldiers, how many people are those with power and powerful people who come down to cross the gold and find a way for their promotion?"
"There is something like this?"
Qin Feng laughed loudly, "In recent years, our western border troops have won many battles and won hard work. Naturally, there will be a lot of people who want to benefit from it. They dare not enter the border troops, because the border troops still have to fight after all, but if they have to get an official position on the county soldiers, when the victory is delivered, it will be enough to write a small contribution to the support."
Sighing, Qin Feng shook his head and said, "People are always unequal. Wild dogs are the guy who was seriously injured by your guard. Following me for dozens of battles, there are seven first-class merits, but three are still missing to wash himself. Does Your Highness know what this means? Making seven first-class merits is equivalent to fighting seven turns in front of the old man of Hell, but he has to turn three more trips. Maybe any one of them will take his life, and then all his previous efforts will be wasted."
"If I could go back alive this time, I would try to let my father make some changes."
Qin Feng did not answer her words and said to himself: "If the people of Western Qin really wanted to take Anyang City, I hope the Scissors and the others would be smarter and run away. No one was watching them anymore. Although it was shameful to be a deserter, it would be better than dying in vain."
