Chapter 16 Escape
About an hour and a half later, Guo Xiu noticed that Cao Shi's speed suddenly slowed down. Panting, she bent over and stood still, wiped the sweat off her face, and when she looked up, she saw a village in the distance.

"Rest for a while and then start again. Try not to make any noise like last night. If... I mean, if someone in the village finds out, you don't have to worry about me running as fast as I can."

Guo Xiu nodded upon hearing that she would only drag Cao Shi down if she stayed, and he would have nothing to worry about if she ran away.She took out the gourd and drank a few sips of water; "Do you want to take a few sips?"

"At our current speed to reach a safe place at least half a month, save some water."

"I know!"

Seeing her not panting, Cao Shi said, "Let's go!"

Guo Xiu followed behind Cao Shi, and as they got closer to the village, her whole heart was raised, her eyes scanned the surroundings warily, and when they approached the village, the two suddenly started running, and they were about to pass through the village. , she suddenly heard a messy footsteps behind them.She was about to turn around, but Cao Shi suddenly pushed her; "Don't turn around and run forward desperately."

After listening to Cao Shi's words, Guo Xiu sped up her speed again. She only heard the sound of "bang bang" coming from behind her from time to time. Three people rushed out, she stood still suddenly, looked at the three people rushing towards her with teeth and claws, took out a pot from the space, took a deep breath, waved the pot and yelled and rushed towards the three people.

Cao Shi was startled when he heard Guo Xiu's yell, he punched them twice until they turned around and chased after Guo Xiu.

At this time, Guo Xiu had already rushed in front of the three of them. She took advantage of the gap between the three of them, waved her hand and hit one of them with a pot, and then continued to run forward. However, she obviously underestimated the three of them. A trap, Guo Xiu tripped over a rope like a ball in mid-air and drew a parabola and fell heavily on the ground, falling like a dog eating shit. She knew very well that she was not out of danger, so she stood up with some effort, and continued to run forward with a limp.

When Guo Xiu fell, Cao Shi had already run to the back of the village, kicked down a person with his long legs, and chased after Guo Xiu.

Guo Xiu touched her nose and looked at the blood on her hands, with an expression uglier than crying, she won't be disfigured!

Cao Shi quickly caught up with Guo Xiu, grabbed her arm and started running.

After half an hour, the two slowed down, out of breath, and Cao Shi let go of her; "Let's have a rest! The people in that village didn't catch up."

Guo Xiu sat on the ground paralyzed upon hearing this, took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood under her nose, looked at Cao Shi and asked, "Is my nose not going to collapse?"

Cao Shi looked at Guo Xiu who was looking at him seriously and shook his head; "No!"

Guo Xiu breathed a sigh of relief; "It's okay, it's okay, the best thing about my face is the high bridge of the nose, if it collapses, you probably won't like me even more."

Cao Shi glanced at her lightly; "If we rest enough, we will continue on. I'm worried that those villagers will catch up."

"My leg hurts, it must be swollen, please help me!" Guo Xiu said while reaching out to him.

Cao Shi pulled her up with a little force, and supported her to continue walking until the sun set and they stopped.
