Chapter 302: Chapter 301 Who Dares to Touch My People (5) Chapter 302: Chapter 301 Who Dares to Touch My People (5) After finishing their rations, Shen Han took out the dagger and examined it closely in his palm.
Bai Qinghuan saw it, a faint light flashed in her eyes. Yes, it was the dagger Su Shu had given her, which ended up in Shen Han’s hands after their escape.
When Shen Han saved her, she was crawling on the ground, unable to stand, and in despair, she thought about using the dagger to end her own life rather than falling into the hands of the thugs behind them.
But Shen Han, who suddenly charged out, kicked the dagger away. He took the dagger, picked up the injured her, and carried her on his back as they escaped.
Shen Han had said coldly at that ti, “If I wanted to kill you, having a knife would be useless.”
The dagger then belonged to Shen Han. Bai Qinghuan, chewing on the dry rations, quietly sat beside him without speaking.
After a long while, Shen Han broke his usual silence to explain their next move.
“In a bit, after we leave this ruin, we need to run quickly through the farmland ahead, cross the river ahead, and then we can reach the borders of City C. Eat more, you’ll need the strength to swim in the river.”
Bai Qinghuan humd in response.
Shen Han took out a small packet from his pocket and poured out two white pills, handing them to Bai Qinghuan.
“Painkillers, chew them dry. The river water is too cold, it might irritate your wounds.”
Bai Qinghuan took them without a word and put them in her mouth. Swallowing was a bit difficult, but her frail body burst with surprising strength and persistence.
The girl beside him, in her silence, seed to possess an unusually strong force, much like soone he rembered.
Shen Han was reluctant to think about that person’s na, especially on such a lonely and dangerous night. It was uncomfortable to recall.
Along the way, there wasn’t much communication between the two. Shen Han couldn’t rember why he had decided to save her originally.
He just felt that, seeing her frail, thin body lying on the ground from afar, with the chaotic and roaring sounds approaching in the distance, that scene seed to pierce into so nearly forgotten place deep in his mory.
Separated from his n, now he only had Bai Qinghuan by his side. If they were to escape successfully, it would be up to them alone.
Shen Han leaned against the cold wall, closed his eyes and took a brief rest to regain his strength.
Having finished eating, Bai Qinghuan did not disturb him and closed her eyes to rest against the wall as well.
Unconsciously, the girl’s body leaned over slightly, her head accidentally resting on the shoulder of the person next to her.
Shen Han opened his eyes, glanced at her, but didn’t wake her and continued to close his eyes to make the most of the ti to rest.
Suddenly, a beam of light flashed quickly across Shen Han’s eyes. Shen Han abruptly opened his eyes, his body tensing up, instantly alert.
Startled by his suddenly stony shoulder, Bai Qinghuan woke up, looked up bewilderedly, and was just about to ask when a large palm covered her mouth.
She saw Shen Han signaling her to “be quiet,” she quickly understood, nodded, and allowed Shen Han’s arm to pass under her arm, silently pulling her into the narrow gap between two buildings to evade the enemy.
Hidden in the gap between the walls, the two of them vanished from sight. Around them, beams from flashlights moved about, searching for their possible presence. Hiding in the darkness and facing the wall, Shen Han silently observed the several beams searching for them.
As long as they didn’t co in to search, it was temporarily safe, but the footsteps outside were chaotic, and in the darkness, Shen Han frowned.
There were at least a dozen pursuers. If they lingered in this area, they could only be trapped here.
Outside, curses rang continuously.
“Damnit, everyone open your eyes wide and search! I refuse to believe they can hide. Even if they burrow underground, dig three feet down and find them! I want to tear them to pieces!”
Having killed his brothers and burned his granary, if he couldn’t drag these people out and grind them into minceat, his rage would not be quelled!
