Chapter 3 Monster Insect Attack At the critical moment, Wen Yunxi shouted: "Wait, don't move, give me some time!"
After shouting these words, before she regretted it, she quickly slid down the rock wall, grabbing the edge of the narrow path and moving forward little by little.
Wen Yunxi's thin body was swaying in the strong wind. If he hadn't tightly grasped the cliff with both hands, he would have been blown to the bottom of the valley.
His fingers were in severe pain, and the warm liquid was blown cold by the wind as soon as it flowed down. Wen Yunxi licked his lips and tasted a fishy-sweet taste in his mouth.
You don't need to look up to see that her nails have cracked because of too much force, but she can't relax even a little bit. If she relaxes, she will be blown off the cliff by the wind.
"you……"
Everyone was shocked by her, and those who were so anxious just now that they were shouting and cursing gradually became quiet.
Wen Yunxi just crawled forward silently, and the little girl took two steps back to make way for him. He looked at her bloody fingers with a complicated expression.
This guy... is really interesting.
Wen Yunxi climbed up carefully in front of the boy. Without saying a word, he tore off the corners of his prison uniform and tied the struggling boy to his chest.
As soon as I turned around to grab the rock wall, someone fell on my back.
"Go down!" Wen Yunxi gritted his teeth.
The little girl said weakly: "I just put in too much effort and can no longer hold on to the cliff."
Wen Yunxi: "..."
She had no energy left, five fingers were torn apart, and there was a boy hanging on her chest. If she carried a little girl on her back, would it be because the stumps at the bottom of the valley were not enough? ! "Stop blabbering and get out of here!"
She wanted to save people, but she didn't want to lose her own life! The little girl still didn't move and hugged him tighter.
If you die, you will die. The journey is not lonely anyway.
Wen Yunxi didn't dare to make big moves, and couldn't stop shaking. In the end, he could only act like a hunchback, enduring the severe pain in his fingers and shaking his legs to cross the cliff.
She regretted it, really! Two days later, looking at the two children, one old and one young, in front of her, she regretted it even more.
The little girl who cheated her out of half a bowl of rice and made her carry it all the way was named Qin Yu, who is 12 years old this year.
Like her, her family was also convicted of the rebellion in early June, her father and brother were beheaded, and the female relatives all hanged themselves after hearing that they were going to be exiled to Lanzhou, leaving this little girl alone on the journey.
This person was not a simple person. Others were exhausted physically and mentally from being exiled, but she lived like a fish in water.
Wen Yunxi had deliberately avoided this girl before, but he didn't expect to be entangled in her anyway. He couldn't even scold her, and couldn't help it.
As for the little boy, I also asked about the situation. His name was Liu Le. He was only four years old this year. He was exiled with his mother, but his mother fell to the bottom of the valley and died.
Although Wen Yunxi found this child troublesome, he couldn't just leave it alone.
"Ugh……"
Forget it, it will be lively when there are many people, and we will have to hire workers anyway.
"Sister Yunxi, I'm hungry." The corner of her clothes was shaken by someone.
Wen Yunxi lowered his head, met the little boy's pitiful gaze, and immediately turned away.
"Then be hungry."
There was no use looking at her, she was hungry too.
She only ate half a piece of dry biscuit yesterday and hasn't eaten it today.
This damn place was full of gray and white stones, and not even a blade of grass could be found. Wherever she went to dig for food, if she hadn't gotten along well with the guards, there wouldn't have been half a piece of cake.
She had seen it yesterday. Others only had two finger widths, which was not enough to fit between the teeth.
After thinking about it, the team suddenly stopped.
"Rest where you are and don't talk loudly."
Leader Jiang came from the front of the team, holding a whip. His voice changed from usual. Although his tone was still ferocious, it was very low, as if he was afraid of disturbing anyone.
Wen Yunxi squinted his eyes, stood on the stone and looked forward.
On the desolate sky, an ocher-colored flag was fluttering in the wind. The Chinese character "Lin" embroidered with gold thread on the flag was vigorous and majestic, shining brightly under the scorching sun.
After Leader Jiang left, Wen Yunxi asked the servant behind him in a low voice, "When did there be an extra King Lin?"
The officer was stunned for a moment and then whispered: "No wonder you didn't know that the Wen family was already in prison at that time."
He looked around and lowered his voice.
"You know that the third prince forced the palace. I heard that he was stopped by the ninth prince, who is now King Lin."
Wen Yunxi nodded, and Qin Yu, who came next to him, also nodded.
This group of prisoners were actually family members of officials who had sided with the third prince. Naturally, they knew more about the third prince's failure to force him into the palace. "Speaking of us, the Ninth Prince, we are also unlucky. When we were born, we encountered the Beidi border. At our first birthday party, we received news of the defeat of General Yan from his grandfather. In the end, we ceded territory and paid compensation to seek peace with Beidi, so that we could live in peace. .”
Everyone likes gossip, and seeing the two girls listening to it with gusto, the officer's interest became even higher.
"Isn't this rumored to be unknown? He has always been disliked by the emperor. I heard that he is not allowed to attend state banquets. However, the ninth prince is very talented. When he was ten years old, the Taifu wrote an article to praise him. Guess what happened?"
The two girls shook their heads together, waiting for him to continue.
"My cousin's cousin's second son works in the palace. He said that as soon as the emperor saw the article, he kicked the ninth prince out of the palace, gave him a random mansion, and did not allow him to go to school again."
Wen Yunxi shook his head. This ninth prince might not be his biological son.
No wonder the original owner didn't have much information about the Ninth Prince in his memory. He was so despised that he couldn't live in seclusion.
Seeing that the servants had stopped again, Qin Yu asked eagerly: "Then how can he still stop the third prince?"
The officer shook his head, "The news hasn't spread yet. I didn't hear about it when I left the capital."
A few people chatted in low voices for a few more words, and then went to find a place to rest.
Not knowing how long he had slept, Wen Yunxi was woken up by a roar.
She frowned and opened her eyes, and saw the guard who had been chatting with her before jumping off the cliff.
"what are you doing?!"
Wen Yunxi rushed towards the officer, but was a step too late and didn't even catch the corner of his clothes.
She lay on the ground in a daze and looked down. The officer had fallen to pieces.
what's the situation? Just as they were wondering, more shouts came from the team in front.
"Run away, there's a tiger!"
"Yeah, there's a rabbit there!"
"Mom, don't hang yourself!"
"Hurry and protect the prince, there are assassins!"
Wen Yunxi: "???"
what's the situation?Are you all crazy?
Where are the rabbits and tigers on this rocky cliff? ! Could it be...
What radiation do these gray-white stones have? Wen Yunxi quickly got up from the ground, and Halina Xuanlin Wen Yunxi tied Liu Le to his back.
"Xiao Le, no matter what happens later, don't move."
After thinking for a while, he said to Qin Yu: "And you, follow me closely. If you feel uncomfortable, shout out immediately."
Qin Yu nodded, and just when he wanted to pull Wen Yunxi's clothes, his eyes blurred, and he froze there.
Wen Yunxi didn't wait for the little girl to make a move. He turned around in confusion and saw the little girl's eyes looking straight to the right, her big eyes full of tears.
"Xiao Yu? How did you..."
Before Wen Yunxi finished asking, Qin Yu suddenly ran towards the cliff.
"What are you doing? There's a cliff over there!"
Wen Yunxi quickly grabbed her collar and dragged her back. Seeing that her eyes were dull, he slapped her hard, but he still didn't wake her up.
Wrong, so wrong! Wen Yunxi pressed Qin Yu to the ground and began to take off her clothes, groping her skin carefully with his hands.
Wait, what is that? Wen Yunxi took a closer look and saw a thin black line on Qin Yu's neck, crawling towards her scalp.
"Be patient."
Wen Yunxi made a quick decision, pressed his fingers hard towards that place, grabbed the black thread and pulled it out.
The black thread struggled in her hand, curling up and trying to get into her fingers.
Sure enough, these people were all invaded by this bug in their brains.
Wen Yunxi shook the insect away and smashed the black threadworm with a stone. He breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that the insect didn't move again.
"Sister Wen?"
Qin Yu looked at her actions with some confusion.
Wen Yunxi did not explain, only said to Liu Le: "You ask Xiaoyu to check it for you, and I will go to the front to take a look."
