Chapter 062 Escape
Lin Zimo, who took a serious look at his old Mount Tai with the help of fire, found that he did not seem to have died. In his mind, he began to come alive. He guessed that the fundamental reason why Yang Mengqi's own father chose to commit suicide instead of escaping after the city was destroyed was the kind of integrity pursued by scholars. And this kind of manner in which I think of them is too pedantic.
The direct consequence of Yang Mengqi's crying was to attract a patrol team of rebels nearby. The seven-person team full of alcohol came to Gao Xiang with a torch. The leader of the team was red-faced, squinting at him and came in with wine hiccups. His eyes soon fell on Yang Mengqi, who was still kneeling on the ground.
Lin Zimo, who had noticed something wrong, slowly bent down to pull out the dagger in his right boots, while the attention of the rebel leader was all focused on Yang Mengqi. Hearing the woman crying, he inevitably felt strange to see someone kneeling in front of the body, so he wanted to see what happened. Before he could let her turn her head around, Lin Zimo, who was pulled out of the dagger, covered his mouth and wiped his neck.
The calm Lin Zimo came out slowly and saw the remaining six rebel soldiers leaning against the wall. With a natural expression, he put his right hand with a dagger on his back and slowly walked to the front of a rebel soldier. After smiling at the other party, he scratched his neck with the dagger in his right hand.
Lin Zimo, who moved quickly, grabbed the dagger with his backhand and stabbed the lower abdomen of a rebel soldier next to him and said, "Gao Xiang, do it quickly. Don't let any of them run away.
Gao Xiang immediately realized that he pulled out his waist knife and cut a rebel soldier opposite him to his face. With a few screams, three rebel soldiers have been killed by the two of them. The wine of the remaining three rebel soldiers suddenly woke up and pulled out their steel knives to prepare for a fight.
Lin Zimo, who had just pulled out a dagger from the body of the rebel soldier, was a vigorous walk and stabbed straight towards another key point. Another scream, the rebel soldiers stabbed in the center of his dagger, and the steel knife that had just been pulled out of his right hand fell to the ground. The two rebel soldiers standing in the distance waved the long knives in their hands and killed Gao Xiang together. Although he is a complete archer, it does not mean that he will use melee weapons well.
Gao Xiang was in the left with the steel knife in his hand, and the one on the right was forced to retreat step by two rebels. Lin Zimo, who was empty, took a few steps quickly and stabbed into the back vest of one of the two with his bleeding dagger. The scream of the man's death came from the bottom of his heart.
Lin Zimo, with a bloody face, had no time to wipe it. He quickly pulled out the dagger inserted into the rebel's back vest and waved it to the last enemy. Gao Xiang, who was stabbed in the gap as soon as he was hit by a knife in his arm. In less than three minutes, this rebel patrol team was neatly killed by Lin Zimo and Gao Xiang.
Yang Mengqi, who was still kneeling in front of his father, heard another scream. The reason why she was indifferent was not to mourn her late father, but that she firmly believed that her father-in-law could retreat completely. Otherwise, you will definitely be accompanied by death.
Lin Zimo, who was stained with a lot of blood, walked to the door and looked at Yang Mengqi, who was kneeling on the ground and said, "Madam, let's get out of here quickly, otherwise we will attract more rebels."
She endured the death of her close relative and knocked three times at her father's body before slowly standing up. Although her heart is extremely sad, she should focus on the overall situation in front of her. My father-in-law has made it, so he has to make the decision he should make.
Yang Mengqi, who turned around, strode out, and then turned his head to look at his dead father and said, "Father, set it on fire!"
Lin Zimo, who picked up the ground torch, threw it all into the room. He, who was still holding the dagger in his right hand, took Yang Mengqi and walked out. Her face was full of tears, and her eyes were full of deep grief. The three people standing not far away saw a fire in the room and turned around and left.
They met a rebel team of about ten people as soon as they ran out of the alley. Gao Xiang, who held the steel knife in his hand, was prepared to fight to the death, and Yang Mengqi's head was completely blank.
Lin Zimo, who was in a hurry, held his fist in front of the leading person and bowed his head and said, "They have just run out of here. And seven of our brothers were killed by them. It seems that they are officials hiding in the city.
The angry rebel leader shouted loudly, "You all chase me. Don't let those grandchildren run out of the city. I will definitely drink with their hearts and livers.
More than a dozen people with torches hurriedly chased out in the direction pointed by Lin Zimo. The three saw them disappear into the night. Under the guidance of Yang Mengqi, they still went out of the city in another direction. Lin Zimo, who was not in a hurry to leave the city, took them to walk and stop. Once they heard the rapid footsteps in the distance and saw a little fire, they hid. Until he heard and saw the rebel patrol go away, and then came out to continue his journey.
"It's almost dawn." Gao Xiang noticed the sky above his head and said, "Let's get out of the city quickly, or we can't get out."
"Don't worry." Lin Zimo comforted his eagerness to get out of danger and said, "We must calm down. The closer you are to the city, the less anxious you are, otherwise it will be very easy to make mistakes.
Gao Xiang nodded and observed the situation around him. He wanted to know the details of the couple and said, "You should not be ordinary people, otherwise you would not have done such a thing. Is it possible that you are the spies of the army?
"Now, we say this is inconvenient. After I leave the city, I will definitely tell you the truth. Lin Zimo took Yang Mengqi's left hand and looked at him next to him.
Gao Xiang, who didn't speak any more, followed the couple all the way to the gate. They saw that the gate had been sent, not like three people had just entered the city. They all know that it is impossible to forcibly kill out of the city. After all, the number of the other party is nearly 20.
The main reason why Lin Zimo and Gao Xiang could easily eliminate the seven-person rebel team was the success of the sneak attack. And the seven people happened without enough preparation and vigilance. If it's a face-to-face battle, I'm afraid that the two of them will become ghosts under other people's knives. The martial arts of the two are ordinary, and they are not much better than the seven unjust ghosts.
"It seems that we can't get out." Gao Xiang, who felt hopeless, lost his confidence.
"Don't worry, let's take a look." Lin Zimo has been staring at the road ahead.
Time is lost little by little, and the sky is gradually getting brighter. Gao Xiang, who had been an ant on the hot pot, felt helpless.
Yang Mengqi, who didn't say anything for a long time, lowered his voice and said, "I have a way out of the city. It's just..."
Seeing that Gao Xiang, who could escape from the sky, suddenly interrupted: "It's just what? Hurry up and say it."
Yang Mengqi, who was pale, shook his head and added that what he hadn't finished, "It's just too risky."
"Does the wife mean that one of us pretends to be the leader of the rebels to deceive the opportunity to get out of the city?" Lin Zimo, who has something to do with her, said what she thought.
"That's what the slave means." Yang Mengqi expressed his worries and said, "I think this role of the rebel leader should not be easy to play. And will they use some passwords and secret words between them? Once recognized, the result is that we..."
"Now, there seems to be no safer way." Lin Zimo said silently, "Let me pretend to be the rebel leader."
Gao Xiang has no objection. After all, it is easy for him to be speechless. Yang Mengqi, who had long known that there was no second candidate, blamed himself and did not object. Lin Zimo, who returned the dagger in his hand and put it back to the sheath, tidyed up his appearance, and then gave some psychological hypnosis and hints.
"Our life and death are in this fight." Lin Zimo told the truth.
After saying that, he swaggered to the front, while Yang Mengqi and Gao Xiang followed him closely. What makes Lin Zimo feel happy is that there is no essential difference between the clothes of the rebel leaders and the clothes of the soldiers. If he is asked to dress up as a general of the Ming Dynasty, he must first get a suit.
Before the three of them stopped, this group of rebels had already increased their vigilance. Everyone clenched the long knife in his hand to prevent accidents.
"You all cheer me up." Lin Zimo, who stopped, showed a majestic appearance. His eyes were higher than the top, and he pointed to a rebel soldier who held the door and shouted, "Your leader? Let him come to see me."
A middle-aged man with a beard came out and said, "I am the leader here. Who are you again?"
"Don't you even know me?" Lin Zimo pretended to have an unhappy expression.
He looked carefully and said, "I'm sorry, I really don't know you."
Lin Zimo, who pretended to be angry, cursed and said, "I don't even know me. It's really blind to you. If you dare to say that you don't know each other, I will have to split you.
