Chapter 164 - 164 Lu Ze, You Bastard, You Liar!

164 Lu Ze, You Bastard, You Liar!

“You—”

After Lu Ze finished instructing Mrs. Luo, he thought for a moment and turned to look at Lin Suisui. However, before he could say anything, Lin Suisui interrupted Lu Ze’s suggestion. “I’ll go with you!”

Lin Suisui looked at Lu Ze as she said persistently, “If you don’t bring me along now, I’ll think of a way to secretly follow you guys!”

She could ride a horse and march with them!

However, she didn’t want to be left behind!

“Okay.” Lu Ze only hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement.

When Pei Qian came over, he not only brought a group of guards, but also five fast horses. When he saw Lu Ze, he said bluntly without any hesitation, “Qian He and I will break out of the encirclement with my guards to the left. I’ve already instructed someone to inform the refugees to protect their families and escape!

The cavalry and I will distract you guys first. Then, you guys will mix in with the refugees and leave!

“Gu Erlang, Madam Liu, we have many enemies on this trip. Whether we can successfully escape or not will be up to fate!”

After saying that, Pei Qian didn’t say anything else. He drew his sword, turned around, and pounced in the direction where the northern barbarians’ attack was the weakest!

With Pei Qian’s departure and some people shouting for their escape arrangements in the refugee camp, the already chaotic refugee camp became even more chaotic.

Although the northern barbarians were cruel, they knew very well that the goal of this trip wasn’t to slaughter people. The most important thing was to find evidence of the communication between the northern barbarians and the inner court!

If those things were really exposed, the plans of the northern barbarians for the past few decades would be in vain!

King Gu Han took the lead and chased after Pei Qian!

Pei Qian’s attire and identity made King Gu Han believe that he was definitely a general in the refugee camp. Guhan King Bartru had suffered a lot of casualties this time. He originally thought that he could attack from the inside and outside, but when they surrounded the tightly guarded refugee camp, they realized that the previously agreed collusion was a joke!

There was only light cavalry on this trip. In order not to attract attention, they weren’t equipped with armor. Therefore, they suffered heavy losses under the volley of arrows.

Now that the target had already left the camp, there was no point in attacking the camp. Therefore, he naturally didn’t continue fighting. He quickly arranged for people to turn their horses around and chase after Pei Qian and the others!

Not long after Pei Qian and the others left, Lu Ze and the others quickly rode their horses and disappeared into the night.

However, even such a small commotion still attracted the attention of the northern barbarians not far away. Although there weren’t many pursuers chasing after them, there was still a lot of them!

Therefore, even Lu Ze didn’t expect that the cave that was originally meant for Mrs. Luo and the others to hide in would become their first resting place.

Although Lin Suisui wasn’t proficient in riding, she gritted her teeth and forced herself to keep up! However, the forest was bumpy, so her inner thigh started bleeding from all the rubbing.

However, in order not to worry Lu Ze, she gritted her teeth and didn’t say a word.

She just obediently sat beside Lu Ze and listened to the commotion outside the cave warily.

It was inconvenient on the way, so even Little White stayed by Yuan Niang’s side. Actually, she understood Lu Ze’s plan. This trip was indeed dangerous!

However, for some reason, she didn’t want to be abandoned again!

It was as if she had experienced such a situation before, making her subconsciously feel very resistant!

“Is your leg injured?!” Lu Ze came over and wrapped Lin Suisui in his cloak. Although he couldn’t see because he couldn’t start an open fire now, when he approached Lin Suisui, he still keenly smelled blood.

Lin Suisui didn’t say anything and only wrapped her cloak tighter around her.

“I won’t go back.” Lin Suisui’s voice was very soft. With suppressed tears, she said, “Don’t even think about getting rid of me!”

“I don’t want to leave you behind.” Lu Ze was silent for a long time before helplessly reaching out to hug the little girl. With heartache, he whispered into her ear to comfort her, “But if your leg is injured, you have to apply medicine. Otherwise, how can we travel tomorrow?!”

“It’s fine. I can hold on!” Lin Suisui shook her head. They had yet to escape danger, so how could they have the time to care about this? “We don’t have much medicine on hand. In addition, we have to travel in a while. Let’s wait until we reach a safe place!”

Seeing that Lin Suisui was so insistent, Lu Ze didn’t say anything else. He just handed her a flat kettle. “Your body feels cold. Drink some strong liquor to warm yourself up first.”

“Are we really going back to the capital?!” Lin Suisui took a sip of liquor from the jar. After she took a small sip, tears flowed down her face…

“Cough, cough, cough. How spicy!”

However, although it was spicy, her body quickly warmed up. “But it really worked!”

“In the past, when I led troops out of the camp to attack at night, strong liquor was a must-have for military supplies on a snowy day.” Lu Ze put away the wine pot and explained to Lin Suisui in a gentle tone, “I remember that a soldier under my command had always been timid. During that battle, a northern barbarian archer shot an arrow through his wine pot. In a fit of anger, he forgot about his fears and chased that northern barbarian archer for half a mile with his saber. Even after he killed him, he was still feeling rueful about the liquor he didn’t get to drink.”

Lu Ze’s voice was extremely slow, and his low voice was charming. However, Lin Suisui quickly realized that something was wrong. She reached out and tugged at Lu Ze’s sleeve as she gritted her teeth. “When did you…”

“When you gave Pei Qian the medicine previously, I left some.” Lu Ze sighed softly and bent down to kiss Lin Suisui’s forehead as he coaxed softly, “Sleep well. When the camp is safe, Fang Dalang and the others will come looking for you!

I’ve already instructed Brother Fang in advance! It’s too dangerous for you to follow me. I’m worried and can’t bear to let you follow me! Listen to me. After I’m done with my matters, I’ll immediately return to look for you!

I, Lu Ze, swear on my life that I will never let you down in this life! Suisui, just wait for me. I’ll be back soon!”

Lin Suisui used the last of her strength to tug at Lu Ze’s sleeve. She opened her mouth to scold Lu Ze for being a bastard and a liar, but no words came out. Two streams of tears slowly flowed down her face…
