After dawn, the mountain road is much easier to walk, not because the road is really easy, but because the eyes can see clearly, and the muscles of the whole body no longer need to be tense to prevent slips at any time, which saves a lot of energy in comparison.
However, the speed of the journey has also increased significantly. Hong Tao walked ahead almost without stopping, and Zhu Mabayi and Fang Wenlin had to follow closely behind.
Fang Wenlin's legs and feet were not good. Sometimes Hong Tao would take the two children down and walk for a while, and let him get on the horse to rest. But Zhumabayi was never allowed to get on the horse, even if Fang Wenlin and Camila interceded for help, they were ruthlessly rejected.
"Practice more now to increase the chance of survival. After the two children are settled, the following journey will be more difficult."
This is the reason given by Hong Tao, he has roughly figured out the way out. Camilla and Yu Jia took them back and handed them over to Kerimu to take care of them for a period of time, and then led Fang Wenlin and Sister Zhumabayi to take the Shate Ancient Road to southern Xinjiang.
If he succeeds, he can come back and pick up the two children. As long as the two adults are not around, no one will doubt the identity of the children, even one after another. Anyway, I have nothing to do when I'm idle, saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda.
It doesn't matter if you fail, the three adults died on Tianshan Mountain, and one of them was accompanied by a pure natural beauty, so it's not a loss at all. Let Kerim bring up the two children. Anyway, he does not lack these few bites of meat. In a few years, he will have two more good helpers for grazing.
"No, Camila must be with us!" But Zhumabayi immediately objected when he heard that the child was going to be sent away. His tone was very decisive and his attitude was very firm, as if she was the child's mother.
"Yes, yes, Camilla can't stay She is, yes" Fang Wenlin was not so decisive when he saw Hong Tao turned his gaze to himself, but he hesitated for a long time without saying why. From the look of his expression, he is more inclined to the opinion of the nun.
"She is the daughter of a certain important figure in the rebel army?" Hong Tao guessed a possibility without too much effort. If this conjecture is true, it would explain why Zhumabayi insisted on fleeing with Fang Wenlin's family. She must know the secret and doesn't want to leave Camilla as a bargaining chip to the Redeemer.
"It is true that their parents died a long time ago" Fang Wenlin's answer was so artful that Hong Tao was left speechless for a long time.
"There is one thing I must explain in advance. Taking the children will definitely kill them. If you don't want to kill them, you'd better separate temporarily. It will be much easier to find a way to send someone back to pick up the children after you are safe. Think about it carefully." In fact, Hong Tao Didn't want to know who Camilla was, just to make sure of the number of participants.
If you have to take your two children to southern Xinjiang, then you can only say goodbye. As the ancients said, don't do porcelain work without diamonds. Rather than watching the two children die in his own hands, it is better to see nothing.
"Do you have a way to take us through the blockade and enter the southern border?" Seeing Hong Tao's resolute words, Fang Wenlin and Zhu Mabayi had to think carefully about the child's problem, and whispered together a few words as if they had reached an agreement. A certain consensus was reached, and this time it was the nun who came forward to ask.
"I can't guarantee it. The success rate is half to half." At this moment, Hong Tao didn't dare to brag anymore. If he left alone, he would be able to pass with 80% certainty.
Although he has never seen the Shatter Ancient Road, he crossed the Altai Mountains in winter. There are many cliffs, high mountains, ice caps, Daban rapids and waterfalls, and the temperature is even lower. Even if the altitude here is slightly higher, the difficulty should be Not too much.
"Can you tell us how to cross the blockade?" Zhu Mabai turned his head and looked at Fang Wenlin. He was quite satisfied with the success rate, but then he had doubts about the method.
"No, it's best not to ask!" Hong Tao replied decisively.
"Bijs, we should trust each other even more at this time" Zhu Mabai didn't speak, but Fang Wenlin felt that it was necessary to discuss the issue of cooperation. How could people feel at ease without even saying where to go.
"No, if I had trusted you, I would have become a prisoner of the Redeemer long ago. If you had a way, you would not use me as an outsider to help you. Now you need me, not we need each other, so everything must be done according to my method .Or just break up, and you can figure it out on your own, there is no third choice."
But his lecture was interrupted right after the beginning. Hong Tao didn't want to play with rights, freedom and equality at this time.
"" The savior suddenly became domineering, which made Fang Wenlin a little uncomfortable, and he didn't know what to say for a while.
"When can I go to southern Xinjiang?" At this moment, Zhu Mabayi interjected. The question is very simple and crucial.
"It will take about ten days, and I need to prepare some tools. Today I will send you to a safe place first, then take the children away, and start off when you come back!" Hong Tao did not desperately hide the timing, of course, Didn't say too clearly.
"Teacher Fang, just listen to Biles, he is more familiar with the terrain." Zhu Mabayi felt that the time was acceptable, so he went to seek Fang Wenlin's opinion.
"Bijs, is the child really safe?" Even though Camilla and Yu Jia are not biological, Fang Wenlin is not inferior to his biological parents at all. The first concern is not his own safety but the two children's.
"Well, it's much safer than us. I'll let my younger brother's family take care of it." This time, Hong Tao didn't choke on others with a straight face. It's only natural for parents to worry about their children.
"Still can't I ask where?" Obviously, Fang Wenlin didn't completely trust this shepherd who didn't even know his real name. In fact, if it wasn't for the life-saving grace just now, he wouldn't even have basic trust. The emotion that shouldn't be had and is the deadliest is trust.
"I want to ask, if you are caught by the redeemer, can you two resist the torture and not confess? If you can, I will try a few first, and if you resist, tell the truth."
Well, the situation that had eased just now made this problem messed up again. Hong Tao can understand human nature, but he doesn't quite understand why people always only care about their own human nature, but rarely consider others.
"Okay, Bires, you saved our lives anyway, and we died once anyway, so it doesn't matter" After being stunned speechless, Fang Wenlin became more free and easy, and stopped asking any secrets , as if resigned to fate.
Hong Tao didn't say anything, and everyone fell into silence for a while. The two children may not have slept well these days, and as soon as they relaxed, they swayed on the horse and fell asleep. The adults didn't hear anything.
"Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu Zhu Mabai went up to share the ride with the children.
Fang Wenlin and Zhu Mabai didn't say anything, and got on the horse obediently. This walk is a steep and slippery mountain road for most of the day. I am already tired, and I am too embarrassed to stop and rest too much. It is good to get on the horse and sit for a while.
"Cover your hands with your sleeves, and be careful not to get pricked ba, ba, ba Hurry up and be careful of being whipped!" Hong Tao is not so kind, he is not caring for others, but trying to play tricks again.
He didn't go directly up the mountain along the sparse vegetation, but grabbed the reins of the two horses tightly, pulling, yelling and cursing into a large thicket of lush vegetation that was as tall as half a person.
"Bijs, stop quickly, that's nettle, it's poisonous!" Even though Jumabayi is a young girl, with thin skin and tender flesh, she looks like a city dweller, but she is really familiar with mountains, not only walking on mountain roads I didn't complain and knew a lot of plants, but I just reached out and grabbed a leaf and exclaimed.
In fact, there is no need for Zhumabai to say that the two horses have already had abnormal reactions. Their emotions were a little irritable, they kept shaking their heads and stomping around, and they were very unwilling to move forward. But the reins were pulled by the villains, and the eyes were covered with cloth, so he had to bite the bullet and keep up.
"Of course it's poisonousCamila, Yu Jia, uncle's debut test questions, why do you think you came here on purpose?"
Hong Tao didn't explain it directly, but took this matter as an exam question and gave it to the two children.
"Don't let the bad guys catch up!" Yu Jia spoke quickly and gave the answer first.
