Origin Chapter 56: Hard to escape

Running in a hurry is definitely not the same as escaping with light work. The "driver" in yellow immediately reacted and chased after him eagerly, "Come on, he's going to run!"

Wang Xinran and another "driver" heard the shouting and ran up from the pit. Wu Zhongyuan had already run several dozen meters. Out of the pistol, "Stop, run again and I'm going to shoot."

At this time, whoever stands still is a fool. Wu Zhongyuan just thought he was farting, and continued to run along the ridge to the northwest. There was a forest 60 meters ahead, and as long as he entered the woods, he was safe.

"Who are you?!" Wang Xinran asked loudly.

Wang Xinran pulled out a pistol while asking, and the other person hurriedly stopped him, "No. 9, don't shoot, my own."

Number 9 must be Wang Xinran's code name in the organization. Only insiders may know it. Seeing that the two are not foreign enemies, Wang Xinran is even more angry, "We made an agreement with him before, what are you doing?"

No one answered her question. Seeing that there was no hope of catching up with Wu Zhongyuan, the man in yellow pulled the trigger while running.

The night was quiet and the gunshots were harsh. Wu Zhongyuan broke out in a cold sweat. When he realized that, he didn't seem to be injured, so he hurriedly ran.

After the first shot, there was another shot. This time the shot was farther away than the first shot. Along with the shot, there was Wang Xinran's angry warning, "Again. I'll kill you if you dare to shoot."

"Number nine, what do you want to do?" someone asked.

"I can't confirm your identity, prove it to me immediately, or I'll shoot." Wang Xinran shouted.

"Are you crazy?" someone yelled.

Wang Xinran didn't answer, and fired a warning shot again. When the two saw her coming, they didn't dare to chase after her, and they didn't dare to shoot rashly. Wu Zhongyuan took the opportunity to rush into the woods and continued to flee under the cover of the trees.

Even if he entered the woods, Wu Zhongyuan didn't dare to slack off. If the content on the stone tablet was correct, there would be other ambushes around besides the two men who were pretending to be drivers.

He can see things clearly at night, and his night vision ability helps him a lot at this time. When he runs, he looks around and can see that people from the north and west are running fast towards his location. The exact number is unknown, only know Lots of people.

However, because there was no warning before he escaped, these people were not aware of the precautions, and they were hundreds of meters away from him at this time, posing no threat to him.

At this time, I can't care about anything. The only thought is to run. The farther the better, the safer.

In less than five minutes, Wu Zhongyuan got rid of the chasing soldiers, but he did not dare to slow down and was still moving fast. These are official people who can set up a card to intercept anywhere, but must be in time before the other party can set a card to intercept , run out of the encirclement they set.

The surrounding area set by the opponent is not fixed, but is evaluated and set according to the speed of his movement. The bigger it is, so it is impossible for the opponent to set up a card a hundred miles away from the beginning, but to gradually expand by estimating his running speed. As long as he can run beyond the speed estimated by the opponent, he can jump out of the encirclement. .

He started to flee around 10:30 and ran for more than two hours, climbing over four peaks and entering the junction of Huangxian and Linxian. By this time, Wu Zhongyuan knew that he was safe, because in the past two hours He ran at least a hundred miles. If he was running on the road, the speed would not be very fast, at least not astonishing, but this was a trek in the mountains.

To the west there are still mountains, but Wu Zhongyuan did not continue to move in the mountains. The use of Qinggong requires the consumption of True Qi. His Qigong cultivation base is not high. At this time, the True Qi in his body has been completely exhausted. Can't run either.

The qi obtained from qigong practice is called differently in ancient times than in modern times. It was called spiritual qi in ancient times, but now it is mostly called true qi. Although it is called differently, it is the same kind of qi. thing.

But right now is not the time to think about it. The top priority is to keep on the road. If you can't run, you can only pick up cars. There is a wide road at the foot of the mountain, and there are many passing vehicles.

Just when he had the idea of ​​picking up a car, a green convoy drove in the distance. It was a dozen military vehicles, including jeeps and trucks. The trucks were covered with tarpaulins, and there were cannons behind.

Sometimes hesitation is not deliberate, but a missed opportunity. After a short and quick observation, Wu Zhongyuan took the cover of the trees and rushed to the foot of the mountain and climbed into a car at the end of the team, but he did not enter the canopy. Instead, he got into the gun carriage towed behind the truck. The gun carriage was wrapped in canvas, and the gun itself had firing positions, and he was curled up here.

By this time, Wu Zhongyuan relaxed slightly. His clothes and pants were soaked with sweat. He was extremely nervous and physically exhausted. After hiding, he kept shivering.

If there is an idiom to describe his mental state at this time, the bird with a startled bow is undoubtedly the most appropriate. He has no backup and has been deceived many times. No matter which side he is, he is eyeing him. Every step is like walking on thin ice and trembling with fear.

All frightened birds will be accompanied by the shadow of the bow and snake, insecure, nervous, worrying about gains and losses, paranoid and anxious, even if he hides in the gun carriage, he is not at ease, and even doubts whether the team is really training or is being trained by others. Appointment, deliberately taking this path led him to throw himself into a snare.

The only thing that makes him feel safe at this point is the gun in his bag, which, although he's unlikely to use it, will make him scruples.

Wait a little bit calmer, Wu Zhongyuan took out his knife and made a small incision on the canvas wrapping the gun truck, so that at least he could see what was going on outside.

He was drowsy due to physical and mental exhaustion, but he didn't dare to sleep. If he fell asleep, he wouldn't be able to detect any unexpected situation in advance, so he could only force his mind and look back.

The reason why he was able to escape was largely thanks to the stele. This stele was left behind after he went back. There should be two purposes. One is to wake up the modern self. To avoid risks, the second is to eliminate some regrets in his heart. At present, this stone tablet has indeed played a certain role, because he escaped safely.

However, it cannot be concluded that this stele can change some of the things that are set to happen, because according to the relevant theories of special relativity, even if the results of some things are known in advance, they can only change the development process of things, but cannot change the end of things. As a result, what is supposed to happen will happen sooner or later.

Whether it can only change some unimportant processes, or can change the results together, there is a very simple verification method, that is to rush to the second location as soon as possible, if the little wizard can successfully send him back, the stone tablet The appearance of the stele can change the result. If there is a change in the middle and the little wizard fails to send him back, the appearance of the stele can only change the process.

Recalling the contents of the stone tablet carefully, you can find several important clues. The first is that he finally returned to the ancient times, and the second is that the life after returning was not easy, otherwise there would be no "so bad" "One said. The third rule is that if you can get to the second location before sunset on April 15, you can return early. The last one is that both Wang Xinran and Zhao Ying are good people.

In addition to these four obvious clues, there is also a very important invisible clue, that is, in addition to relying on these two wizards to send him back, there is another way to return, he died when the little wizard also died In order to use this method, he returned to the modern age for another year.

The complicated clues were sorted out one by one, and it was dawn. The convoy stopped on a flat area by the side of the road. The soldiers in the car got out of the car to urinate and wash. After eating, they continued to get on the car and drive on the road.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Wu Zhongyuan moved from the gun truck to the truck in front of him. He was lucky. The last truck was pulling supplies for the marching army, and the food was a compressed dry food that could heat itself. He has observed carefully when we eat and eat, whoever wants to eat as much as he wants, and there is no need to report to anyone, there is no accurate quantity of boxed lunches.

After getting into the spacious truck, he didn't want to go back to the gun truck, but he didn't dare to stay in the truck, so he filled his backpack with this compressed dry food and moved it back to the gun truck.

Actually, he wanted to eat from the truck and go back, but the dry food had to be heated with water, and there was no water in the truck.

The convoy stopped again at noon for lunch. During lunch, the soldiers had a conversation. Although the conversation did not mention the destination of the trip, they said to run faster in the afternoon and try to get to the mountains before dark. Live ammunition drills, so Wu Zhongyuan knew what he had in mind. When the convoy started, he moved back to the truck and slept in the carriage.

He was woken up, looking out from the gap in the tarpaulin, the road was narrow, it was a dirt road, surrounded by trees, he must have entered the mountain.

I can't hitchhike anymore, I have to get down quickly, if I get to the camp, I can't run.

The first thing he did after getting off the bus was to let go. He didn't dare to turn on his mobile phone and could only determine the time by observing the sun. It should be after four o'clock in the afternoon, and his current location should be in the northwest of Huangxian County. , according to the speed of the car, it is about 800 to 1,000 miles away from Huangxian.

With such a long distance, it must have jumped out of the search range of the other party, and it should be safe.

Without eating all day and night, he was already hungry and his chest was on his back. There is a stream in the mountains, and dry food can be heated. There are instructions on the dry food bag. The food is better than he thought before. This self-heating dry food contains meat, vegetables and spicy sauce.

After eating, I counted the remaining dry food, and there are more than 20 bags. I eat two bags a day, and I don't have to go out for more than ten days.

It seems that today's luck is still good. Not only did they escape smoothly, but they also received sufficient supplies, which reduced the risk of exposure when going out for food. These days, surveillance is everywhere. Son.

After tidying up his backpack, Wu Zhongyuan continued to move northwest. Today is April 1st, and he has fifteen days to rush to the source of the Yellow River. Previously, he found the suspected location based on the clue of three connected snow-capped mountains. , in Maduo County, Qinghai Province, there is still half a month, time is enough.

If he hadn't seen the text on the stone tablet last night, he might have gotten in touch with Zhao Ying at this time, but now he won't do that for the simple reason that he doesn't want to kill Zhao Ying, although he doesn't know why It will kill Zhao Ying.

The mountain he is currently on is very large, a real deep mountain. Standing at a high place and looking around, the village cannot be seen in the area as far as the eye can see. This situation is beneficial to him. Safer.

Although there was plenty of time, Wu Zhongyuan did not dare to delay, and kept running fast. The stone tablet said that if he could get there before sunset on April 15th, he would be able to save the little wizard. "There are two possibilities, one is that the little wizard is dying because of his own reasons, and the other is that someone killed the little wizard. As for which case, he can't be sure, because the text on the stone tablet is written by himself. In both cases, he might use the word "saved" in his habit of expression.

In the evening, barbed wire appeared ahead, to be precise, three iron thorns tied to a concrete pillar.

This kind of iron thorns extends from north to south. If you take a detour, you may not know when to detour. After a brief hesitation, Wu Zhongyuan drilled through the gap of the iron thorns. The area surrounded by iron thorns is very likely It is a military restricted area, but even if it is surrounded by such a large area, no one will find it.

It's long past the sting, but there are very few snakes and insects nearby, even rabbits and birds, but this situation is a good thing for a person who walks alone in the mountains, he is not afraid of snakes, insects and wolves , but suddenly something came out, and it doesn't feel good to be startled.

Half an hour later, when night fell, Wu Zhongyuan slept during the day and was not sleepy, so he continued on his way.

After walking for another ten minutes, a big pit appeared in front of me. It was said that the big pit was not very big. It was seven or eight meters wide. The middle area was more than one meter deep, and the periphery was shallower.

The pit is overgrown with weeds, presumably from a long time ago.

Going further, I found a similar pit. The further I went, the denser the similar pits. Sometimes the two pits were still connected.

"Why are there so many pits?" Wu Zhongyuan murmured.

As soon as he mumbled, he immediately came to his senses. Previously, the convoy was artillerymen who went into the mountain for training. This mountain was probably the target of their artillery fire. No wonder there were no wild animals around.

When I woke up, I ran towards the north with all my strength. Fortunately, I woke up early.

However, he soon realized that he didn't wake up too early, because he didn't run far before the sound of gunfire came from the south.

"Fuck you..."
