Martial: I Started The Technological Revolution In Ancient Times

C70 Escape



C70 Escape

Struggling forward, all kinds of dangers.    

    

Along the way, they encountered all sorts of problems, but Xiao Yun used all sorts of methods to overcome them.    

    

This caused everyone to have a strange feeling towards Xiao Yun.    

    

It was as if following him could fill in some sense of security.    

    

This feeling would probably not diminish even if they escaped with their lives.    

    

After three days, they finally walked out of this forest.    

    

Outside was a flat land, more like a desert, desolate and vast.    

    

The rain did not accumulate here, either seeping into the ground or flowing into the nearby rivers.    

    

The ground was flat, and it was mainly made of sand and stone, so it was relatively safer to walk.    

    

As they stepped on the solid ground, they felt as if they had been reborn. Then, they looked at each other. First, they felt as if they had just survived a disaster. Then, they laughed out loud almost at the same time.    

    

In fact, Xiao Yun also heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he placed the wooden board on the ground and laid on it with his head raised.    

    

He took a deep breath, tilted his head, and said to the beauty, "Come, massage my leg."    

    

The beauty was stunned.    

    

The laughter of the surrounding people also stopped.    

    

Seeing that the beauty didn't respond for a long time, Xiao Yun frowned and said, "Come here quickly."    

    

The beauty gritted her teeth and forced a smile. She moved closer and sat on the edge of the wooden board, then pressed on Xiao Yun's leg.    

    

However, the trembling of her hands indicated that she wasn't calm.    

    

The surrounding people also had painful looks on their faces.    

    

The young master of Lee family walked over and said awkwardly, "Young Master Xiao, my follower's technique is not bad. Why don't you let him try? Don't let Miss Leng do this."    

    

The beauty immediately looked at Xiao Yun with a hopeful expression.    

    

This kind of behavior was actually an insult to her.    

    

But Xiao Yun had saved everyone's lives, and she could not refuse him. The humiliation in her heart could naturally be imagined, and even her good impression of Xiao Yun had completely disappeared.    

    

But Xiao Yun shook his head and said, "All of you are not martial arts practitioners. Your hand strength is always a little lacking."    

    

He turned to the beauty and said, "Use a little more strength."    

    

The beauty's heart was miserable and angry. She bent down and used the most strength in her hands. Xiao Yun immediately bared his teeth and sweat appeared on his forehead.    

    

"Ugh..."    

    

He couldn't help but let out a cry.    

    

The beauty was shocked and hurriedly withdrew her hand. She said with a slightly apologetic tone, "I, I used too much strength."    

    

Xiao Yun took a deep breath and said, "It's fine. Use this kind of strength, especially on the knees and the calves. Push more."    

    

The beauty was helpless and could only press continuously according to his words.    

    

Everyone couldn't help but sigh.    

    

Although the beauty was old, she was still the eldest daughter of a virgin and a famous noble in the capital. It wasn't good to do this kind of servant's work and also come into contact with the legs of a man.    

    

It would even affect her reputation in the future.    

    

At the same time, they did not understand why Xiao Yun, who had been the backbone of everyone along the way and used his charisma to conquer them, would suddenly make such a ridiculous request!    

    

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Xiao Yun said, "Alright, there's no need to press."    

    

He struggled to stand up, his legs twitching.    

    

He turned his head to take a look, only to find that the beauty's eyes were filled with tears.    

    

"What are you crying for?"    

    

He asked concernedly.    

    

The beauty hurriedly turned her head away, but her tears flowed even more.    

    

Xiao Yun did not quite understand. He went over and stretched out his hand to rub the top of her head. Then he said, "This place is very safe. Find the river or the official road and follow the flow of the river. You will find fish and animals by the river, but you must pay attention to the water. Using the method I taught you to boil water, you must cook it before drinking it. If you don't boil it, even if you die of thirst, you can't drink the water in the river. Do you understand?"    

    

When the beauty heard these words, she was obviously stunned for a moment. She turned her head and looked at Xiao Yun.    

    

" You are not going with us? "    

    

Xiao Yun grinned and pointed in the direction of the forest and said, "There are still people inside. I can't just focus on running for my life. Leave them behind? I asked you to massage my legs. My legs were soaked in cold water. If I can't massage my Tongtong bloodline, I won't be able to walk very far. Even if I manage to escape, I will leave behind the root of my illness. And you have already learned this method. After that, you have to give them all a massage. Here, your hand strength is enough. I know, as a young lady of a noble family, you haven't left the pavilion yet. Doing things like this is a form of harm to you, but in the face of righteousness... Even life and death are trivial matters, let alone common sense and ethics. Doing this is not for you to live, but for others to live on! Alright, you guys rest for a while and set off. I'm leaving."    

    

"Young Master Xiao, please stop!"    

    

Young Master Lee immediately shouted, "How can you consider yourself running for your life? With your ability, you could have easily escaped. However, you were dragged into this by us, and you have been in danger time and time again. How could anyone blame you? As for the others, whether they could survive until now was a question of whether they could survive the earth and muddy water. You still want to turn around and enter a dangerous place. Wouldn't it be a loss if you became that traitorous?"    

    

Xiao Yun sighed and turned his head to look at the crowd. One by one, he swept his gaze across their faces.    

    

Then he said softly, "To us, are there any living people inside? Can I find them? Whether or not we can bring them out, that might not be the case. It's a probability, a very low probability... Maybe 10%, maybe less than 10%... But for those who might still be alive, this is just a tiny probability for us. But for them, this is everything!"    

    

Everyone exclaimed in admiration.    

    

The beauty was even more shocked. She stared blankly at Xiao Yun. Suddenly, she stood up and grabbed his hand. With a trembling voice, she said, "Don't leave."    

    

The corner of Xiao Yun's eyes twitched violently.    

    

His heart was in turmoil.    

    

In his past life and present life, this was the first time someone had held his hand like this, and said to him, "Don't leave."    

    

So he didn't want to leave.    

    

However, in this world, there were always rules. Just like he had said, he had to abide by his own rules.    

    

This has nothing to do with benefits, nor does it have anything to do with his career, nor does it have anything to do with humanity.    

    

It's just his bottom line.    

    

The people he brought were still in the forest. He acted alone because it was very dangerous to fight against Zhao Fengxi, so he took the responsibility.    

    

Originally, he should have gone back to save Shangguan Qing'er and the others after settling this matter.    

    

However, because of the presence of the beauty, his selfishness caused trouble. He did not want the beauty to die here, so he made an exception and changed his schedule.    

    

Doing so actually made Shangguan Qing'er and the others take an additional risk!    

    

It was against Xiao Yun's principles of being a person who dealt with the world.    

    

He stretched out his hand and carefully pushed aside the beauty's palm, unwilling to give up.    

    

Then, he sighed and said, "It's fine. If I can walk out..."    

    

After a long silence, he said, "I'll go to the Leng family to find you."    

    

After saying that, he walked towards the forest without looking back.    

    

He didn't dare to look back. Once he turned his head and took a look, he felt that he would give up what he was holding in his heart.    

    

The beauty didn't continue to shout.    

    

She lowered her head to look at her own hand.    

    

Her heart felt empty, as if she had lost something.    

    

He had lost something... Something that she had never possessed before.    

    

She sighed slowly, then turned to the crowd and said, "Let's follow what Young Master Xiao said and continue to search for the river. I know that everyone is hungry and thirsty now. But if the food is not cooked, we will not eat or drink. After we find the river, we will rest for a while. At that time, I'll massage everyone's legs and blood vessels."    

    

This decision was made through gritted teeth.    

    

Sacrifice?    

    

She would definitely have to sacrifice herself. Once this was done, her reputation in this life would be completely ruined.    

    

However, it didn't matter.    

    

Just like what Xiao Yun had said, in the face of righteousness, personal reservations were insignificant.    

    

And compared to what Xiao Yun had done, what was the point of massaging someone's legs for his contributions?    

    

Thus, everyone started to listen to the beauty's orders and walked forward step by step. However, they couldn't help but turn their heads and look at the place where Xiao Yun had left.
