Soon, another person ran over. It was Yang Jin.

"Marquis, when I went to chase the remaining two people, I discovered that there was an army of Liu Han four miles east of the forest. The bonfire was everywhere and there were at least a few thousand men."

Xue Yan's footsteps paused as he continued to carry Lu Qing forward.

"We'll pass through this patch of forest at full speed and continue heading west. Yang Jin, you and a few others can go to the north and drive to the west. We'll meet up tomorrow morning."

Yang Jin saluted and went into the woods with the others.

Xue Yan quickened his pace.

"Xue Yan, put me down. I'm going to find Han Shuo."

Lu Qing struggled to get down, but Xue Yan didn't let her go.

"We already found him and told him to leave first. He refused and said he would wait for you."

Lu Qing smiled. This silly child.

Sure enough, Han Shuo stubbornly squatted beside the tree hole, while Liu San'er looked at him helplessly.

Lu Qing got down from Xue Yan's body and hugged Han Shuo. Han Shuo cried, but did not dare to cry out loud.

"It's okay, this is not my blood."

Only then did Han Shuo stop his crying. He was carried by Xue Yan to be carried by Liu San'er while he walked into the forest with Lu Qing on his back.

The commotion behind them increased, and they ran faster and faster.

They passed through the forest at dawn and found Yang Jin and the other widows waiting for them. They looked quite tired.

But now was not the time to rest, so they had to increase their speed to the west. This place was not far from Aunt Zang City, and once they got there, they would at least be able to obtain the protection of the Liangzhou army.

Along the way, there were only a few people left in the car. Widow Ma and her two children had already been killed. Now, the only children left were Han Shuo, Soong Lan's daughter and a four-year-old girl.

That little girl cried all the way. Her mother kept comforting her, but it was to no avail. It was only when Han Shuo took out his malt candy that Little Girl stopped crying.

This time, they did not stop for two days.

Xue Yan rode beside Lu Qing almost all the time.

Lu Qing's blood had already dried up, but she didn't waste any water to wash it off. Just like that, it dried up and fell off. It was a shocking sight to behold.

Wang Qiang didn't say another word of ridicule to Lu Qing. The widows didn't know what was going on, and the soldiers kept quiet, but she didn't like to be on the road like this, even when she was sleeping in the car.

She was full of complaints, but when she saw the black blood covering Lu Qing's body, she didn't dare to make a sound.

In the two days after they left, Liu Han's army had withdrawn. They did not advance into the Liangzhou, and instead retreated back into the pass.

Shi Hu's death had changed a lot of things. It was just that the butterfly had just spread its wings and stirred up a storm in the future. However, this was not all.

Of course, Lu Qing was worried about these unknowable effects, but it was useless to worry about them since they were all killed anyway. She only hoped that the Han people would be less massacred this way.

Lu Qing's mood improved a lot after she thought it through. Only now did she realize that Xue Yan was looking at her wrongly.

There was a strange meaning to it.

"What are you looking at? Have you fallen for this old lady? "

Xue Yan just smiled. The current Lu Qing did not look beautiful at all. Her face was pale and there were spots of black blood on her face and neck.

Remembering her in a pool of blood, she unknowingly merged with the figure in her memories.

Actually, it wasn't just Xue Yan, even the few veterans in the team looked at Lu Qing thoughtfully. They seemed to have thought of something extremely painful, so they shook their heads and gave up.

Only the few recruits looked at Lu Qing with bright eyes, as if they were looking at a hero. Their eyes were filled with worship.
