Forced to be a concubine, I went to my husband's place to become a wealthy merchant

Chapter 363

Xue Jiu did not hesitate and immediately took the others to head towards Fuzhou City.

When they met Wei Jue's horse on the road, they whipped it and told the horse to run to another road, away from them, so that the adults would be safer.

Just as Wei Jue had instructed, they saw several people leaving in groups at the fork in the road and splitting up into smaller groups.

By the time the assassins discovered something was wrong, they had already lost sight of Wei Jue.

The leader instructed the remaining assassins: "They are separated, there won't be too many of them, you guys should form groups and search for Wei Jue separately, and make sure to capture this bastard alive."

"Yes."

The assassins dispersed in groups...

Ye Xi followed behind Wei Jue, full of complaints.

Nothing good happened to her following him. Her life went from easy mode to hard mode, and then to hell mode.

She didn't even want to share the joys and sorrows with him, but now she wanted to live and die together with him. How ironic!

In order to avoid the assassins, Wei Jue chose to walk in places where there were no roads and paid special attention to the green plants around him.

Try not to go to places with dense green plants, because stepped on or broken branches and leaves will expose their whereabouts.

It was rare that it hadn't rained in the past few days, so there were no footprints left where they passed, so they didn't have to worry about dealing with the footprints.

Wei Jue chose the route based on his anti-reconnaissance capabilities, but it was very painful for Ye Xi.

She complained wildly in her heart: Even if it is to avoid the assassin, there is no need to choose such a difficult path, right?

Besides, it’s almost dark, and I wonder if there are snakes in these places.

Before the assassins arrived, they were bitten to death by poisonous snakes.

She didn't dare to ask out loud, fearing that the sound would attract people, and she felt that Wei Jue must have a reason for doing this.

After all, his life was worth much more than hers, so he could only follow along while complaining.

Sure enough, it got dark quickly, and in order to avoid being searched, Wei Jue chose to walk on the slope.

This slope also leads to Fuzhou City, but it is not a proper road.

There are many trees and shrubs above it, blocking the view. There are also trees and shrubs below it. The slope is not steep, so people can walk on it, but it requires some effort.

The advantage of walking here is that once they hear any movement above, they can stop immediately, then lie down and hide in the bushes, becoming perfectly invisible.

After it gets dark, it is easy to get into trouble if you walk in the dark, so Wei Jue will hold Ye Xi's hand and walk forward from now on.

He was worried that if she accidentally rolled down, he wouldn't know where to find her.

When people are unlucky, even drinking water will get stuck in their teeth.

Wei Jue had just been holding her hand and walking for a while when he stepped on empty air.

He never thought that there was a big hole in this place. It was probably washed by rain and then rolled down.

Ye Xi, who was being held by the hand, also rolled down. Wei Jue reacted quickly and hugged Ye Xi tightly for fear that she would get scratched.

After rolling for a while, Ye Xi finally stopped after hearing Wei Jue groan.

She felt a burning pain on her back, and then she felt Wei Jue's clothes on his chest were wet and sticky.

She reached out and touched the clothes on his chest. It felt slightly wet and sticky. She intuitively felt that it was blood that soaked through the clothes.

"Sir." Ye Xi called out twice in a low voice, fearing that something might have happened to him.

"I think my leg is broken, and the wound on my left shoulder is open again." Wei Jue replied in a low voice.

When he rolled down just now, his left calf hit a thick tree trunk with the last impact. He felt terribly painful in his calf with such a strong impact, and he probably had a broken bone.
