Chapter 30
Hearing this pair of man and woman begin their escape, the audience was inexplicably nervous.
A man carrying forty pounds of gold, plus a weak woman.
How could they avoid the pursuit of the blade-wielders?
Even if everyone went to the river beach gathering today, it could give them enough time.
But the mastiffs kept by the Gelao Society were not vegetarians.
They would follow the scent and find them very quickly!
Zhang Lin didn't tell the audience what the outcome of being caught by the blade-wielder team was.
But everyone intuitively felt it wouldn't be very pleasant, otherwise the man wouldn't have trembled all over just hearing the woman mention the consequences of not escaping!
This was the crucial point of the story, and Zhang Lin didn't delay, continuing to tell it.
"The two ran like this and arrived at a river section."
"That was a gap guarded by humans, because nature is the best defense."
"Although this stretch of river wasn't deep, the current was rushing, and no one could stand steadily in the river."
"Once washed away by the rapids, some part of the body would inevitably hit the oddly shaped rocks."
"Moreover, the riverbed under the rapids was also extremely uneven."
"Under a whirlpool, there might be a large pool; if you accidentally step into it, the chance of floating back to the surface is zero."
"And across the river were cliffs hundreds of meters high, straight up and down, simply impossible for humans to climb."
"So, when the woman saw this stretch of river, she hesitated."
"The man told her that he had long since figured out the situation of this river and could definitely cross it."
"And he also told the woman that on the other side of the cliff, there was an extremely narrow crack where a person could squeeze in."
"Once, the man took advantage of people not noticing and squeezed in; it was a large cave that could lead outside."
"As long as they got outside, they could live!"

"Just like that, the woman followed the man and began to cross the river."
"The man used gestures to direct the woman, letting her follow him every step of the way."
"So, the situation now became: the man in front, the woman in back."
Hearing this situation, anyone with a bit of jianghu experience frowned.
The audience below had already begun to whisper.
Heibei Laoliu, with his reputation, would never give his back to others.
And this man, in such a dangerous situation, walked in front himself!
He might have forgotten that he was still carrying forty pounds of gold on his body!
This amount of gold sometimes makes even relatives dare to kill for it.
How did he think a dark prostitute wouldn't be greedy?
Even Yin Yin Nanfeng in the second-floor box couldn't help but sigh: "This man is truly stupid; how can he not see that the woman doesn't sincerely want to escape with him at all?"
"Even the storyteller said the woman's heart is cold."
"Having lingered by the Jinshajiang for so many years, I'm afraid this dark prostitute had long since lost her sincerity."
Zhang Yueshan also nodded: "I can only say this man is naive, otherwise he wouldn't be dreaming the beautiful dream of being able to escape."
"I went to that stretch of the Jinshajiang with Fo Ye; back then, even with the gold rush, the vicinity was mostly undeveloped primitive forest."
"Even if the Jinshajiang has no gold now and has undergone basic development, there are some mountains that even locals won't go to."
"That is absolutely the most dangerous place in terms of natural hazards!"
"Just watch; this person daring to carry gold and leave his back to others is destined not to live long."
Sure enough, they heard Zhang Lin continue:
"The man walked in front, his heart only on the rushing river under his feet."
"But he couldn't see that the woman had already slowly and resolutely taken a very sharp small knife from her body."
"The knife was extremely small, but the light of the blade showed at a glance that it was sharpened daily, always kept in the sharpest state."
"Then, the woman's left hand touched the man's shoulder."
"The man immediately turned his head; the woman was already soaked, her wet clothes clinging to her body."
"Her wet hair stuck to her forehead, her face full of water droplets; her eyes looked even more like flowers in dew."
"At this moment, the woman was extremely beautiful; even the man forgot he was escaping and looked a bit infatuated."
"Just at this moment, that sharp small knife had already cut the belt around his waist."
"The man felt his body lighten, and when he realized something had happened, it was already too late."
"The woman's small knife had already been raised and stabbed into his heart with almost no deviation!"
"A wave surged over, the river water rushed over their heads, and the woman nimbly pulled out the small knife."
"And the man's body had already lost the strength to resist the impact of the wave and fell down, disappearing into the rushing river in an instant."
"The woman took advantage of the time before the next wave hit, caught her breath, moved slowly, and walked back to the shore."
"Once on the beach, she lay on the pebbles, one hand holding the sharp knife, the other holding the belt containing the forty pounds of gold nuggets."
"The river water surged up, sometimes even submerging her body."
"At this time, the river water should have been bone-chillingly cold, but there was no cold expression on her pretty face; instead, it was a kind of fanatical excitement!"
"She had just killed a person and snatched that person's gold nuggets, but she didn't feel guilty at all."
"At this moment, she didn't feel she had killed a person; on the contrary, she felt she had let the man be liberated."
"Otherwise, the man would have died under the punishment of the blade-wielder team! That is the most cruel punishment in the world; just looking at it would give you nightmares for days."
"Just as she was about to stand up and leave, a figure suddenly appeared before her eyes."
"Her movements suddenly froze, her breathing stopped; in that instant, she felt the blood in her whole body stop flowing."
"She didn't move, but the figure was slowly leaning down to look at her."
"Originally, the woman's face had been twisted into a strange and ugly shape because of fear."
"But when she saw the person's eyebrows and eyes clearly, she suddenly tried hard to control her expression."
"Her eyes were filled with ripples, her elbows propped up, her head slightly lowered, and she even gently brushed her messy hair."
"The person, seeing this, quickly took off the sheepskin jacket he was wearing and wrapped it around her."
"After putting on the sheepskin jacket, she snuggled into the person's arms, trembling slightly and gently."
The crowd, hearing this, knew that Heibei Laoliu had met the dark prostitute.
It was just that the timing of their meeting was very strange!
A dark prostitute had just killed a laborer who wanted to take her away and snatched his gold.
A blade-wielder should have been participating in his victory banquet, but he had run alone to the deserted riverbank.
No one believed that with Heibei Laoliu's sensitivity, he wouldn't see that the bulging belt the woman was holding was a man's thing?
Wouldn't he see the sharp small knife the woman was holding?
But he still chose to give his sheepskin jacket to the woman to wear.
Between a man and a woman, sometimes it is just so wonderful; two people who clearly have nothing to do with each other are connected by fate on such a night.
