Chapter 64: Over the Mountain
I don't know if it was the power of Tang Yi's slap or the intimidation that worked, in short, Scarlett quieted down, and Tang Yi began to officially climb the mountain.
The mountain is indeed very steep, but because it grows densely with small trees, not only can it use the roots of the trunk, but also the dense branches and leaves completely cover the figures of the two, and the most important thing is that the pursuing war horses cannot run on such terrain.
As soon as he went up the mountain less than 100 meters, he heard a long neighing of horses under the mountain, Tang Yi listened carefully, roughly estimated that it was between fifteen and twenty horses, thinking about it, it was really scary for a while, if his speed was slower, I was afraid that he would be shot into a hedgehog.
The height of this mountain is about 800 meters, and Jones and they should all be wearing heavy armor, so even if they dismount and continue to chase, they should be able to throw them off if they climb over this mountain.
However, the map given by Scarlett did not have information about the back of the mountain, so Tang Yi gasped and asked.
"Hey! Scarlett, where is the back of this mountain? ”
"I don't know."
Scarlett's tone was a little dazed, mainly because her heart was in turmoil, because she suddenly found that she had been completely tied up with Tang Yi and was in danger.
Jones must know her murderous intentions, so he will never let her go, and in addition to Jones, the family relatives will definitely resent her, and may even persecute her.
Scarlett regrets it very much now, maybe she shouldn't have found Tang Yi in the first place, but how did Jones know what went wrong with their plan.
Regarding Scarlett's answer "I don't know", Tang Yi didn't bother to get angry, so let's cross the mountain first and get away from it when it's safe.
The lower the slope became to the top of the mountain, Tang Yi's speed was a little faster, and he couldn't hear the sound of chasing behind him, but he still didn't dare to relax in the slightest.
When I got to the top of the mountain, I found that it was a small flat top, with few trees and increased grass, and it seemed that the straight width of the top of the mountain was not short.
This is good information, because it means that the span at the bottom of the mountain is wider, and the more time it will take for Jones to go around the base of the mountain to intercept themselves.
Tang Yi swayed Scarlett's slightly slumped body up and continued to run forward.
"Tang Yi, let me down, I can go by myself."
"Are you sure?"
"Well, it's just a bruise, it's not serious."
In this case, Tang Yi put down Scarlett, but he didn't expect Scarlett to let out an inhalation sound as soon as she landed, which was obviously not as serious as she said.
Tang Yi leaned over and looked at Scarlett's injury, the wound was not big, and it didn't bleed much, but the location of the injury was just on the side of the knee joint, and the wound would be repeatedly pulled when she ran, so letting her run by herself was purely waiting to be caught up.
"This won't work, we haven't escaped from a safe distance yet, so I'll continue to carry you."
Scarlett took two steps and found that she really couldn't do it, so she nodded helplessly, but then said.
"Can you not carry it? It's hard for you to have you on my shoulder. ”
I'm going to the sun, and it's all the to run for my life.
Tang Yi thought secretly, and said angrily: "If you are not afraid of being touched by me, then you can carry you on your back." ”
Scarlett was silent for a moment, and after weighing the discomfort of being groped and being fucked, she finally decided.
"Then carry it on your back, but if you dare to touch my ass, I will not let you go."
Ouch, scared the young master to death, Tang Yi pursed his lips disdainfully, then put the backpack in front of him, turned his body and squatted slightly.
Scarlett gritted her teeth and jumped on Tang Yi's back, originally worried that this fucker would really touch her ass, but she didn't expect to just hug her thigh, and then ran forward.
"Tang Yi, what should I do?"
Scarlett, who was lying behind Tang Yi, asked him for help in a distraught, her slightly weak tone was not at all arrogant and cool at all, thinking about it, she was just a girl who hadn't walked out of the school yet, where did she really go through any wind and waves.
But these words made Tang Yi feel unhappy again, because Scarlett asked "what should I do", not "what should we do", even for the sake of the master running away behind your back, should you also pretend to express your feelings and share weal and woe!
So Tang Yi replied in an unkind tone: "If you hadn't chased me smartly and left too many traces for them, I would have hid and slept a long time ago, what else can I do now, be ready to wander the world with me, or die together!" What a stupid woman with her head squeezed by the door. ”
Wandering the world and dying together, these two sentences were like a sledgehammer hitting Scarlett's heart, causing Tang Yi to even scold her for being stupid.
After running for about a kilometer, the mountain turned downhill, and Tang Yi stopped at the edge of the top of the mountain and scanned down, looking for the direction of escape after going down the mountain.
Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, there was a small tree not far away, and the tree was full of small fruits with dark red and black spots, which looked a bit like a hawthorn at first glance, but Tang Yi knew that this fruit was called "gall fruit".
The taste of the "gall fruit" is astringent and bitter, and it tastes like tree bark, so even animals and birds disdain this fruit, but this "gall fruit" has a strange effect that ordinary people do not know, that is, it will be infinitely powerful within a minute after eating.
Because of this, this fruit is called "gall fruit", which means that it can bring courage to people, but this "gall fruit" also has side effects, that is, after eating for about half an hour, it will be weak and difficult to walk, and this state of detachment will last for about ten minutes.
Tang Yi once ate this "cowardly fruit" once out of curiosity, its strength is infinite, it is just an exaggeration, and the strength of the body can almost be doubled, but the feeling of detachment afterwards is too painful, and he can't move anywhere except for his eyes.
Seeing Tang Yi picking fruits, Scarlett, who was lying on his back, couldn't help but ask.
"Are you picking these hawthorns because you don't have enough food to eat?"
"Nonsense, I only prepared my own food, how could I think of dragging my family and fleeing for my life."
Scarlett knew that she was dragging Tang Yi down, so she had no way to refute Tang Yi's vague complaints, so she could only close her mouth and stop talking, but there was a trace of grievance on her beautiful little face.
In fact, Tang Yi also picked more than a dozen "gall fruits", and then began to go down the mountain, although Scarlett wondered why he only picked so few hawthorns, but after thinking about it, he didn't ask, so as not to be sarcastic by Tang Yi again.
As the saying goes, it's easier to go up the mountain than to go down, and it's not false at all, in order to avoid accidentally falling and rolling down, Tang Yi let go of the hand holding Scarlett's legs, and used it to grab the surrounding branches to stabilize his body.
So Scarlett had to hug Tang Yi's neck and wrap his waist tightly.
