With a bang, the grenade exploded not far behind them.
These devils appeared so suddenly that even Zheng Xiao didn't expect it, so he had no precautions and almost suffered a big loss.
Where the grenade exploded, a strong wave of air swept over, as if an invisible big hand pushed the two people, causing them to fall forward involuntarily, and then rolled down the narrow and steep steps toward the entrance of the alley.
go.
Zheng Xiao felt a pain in his shoulder, as if it had been scratched by something, but he didn't care about that now. He hugged Yaomei tightly with both hands, firmly protecting her vital parts with his body, and then followed the extremely hard
The bluestone steps rolled down.
The two people tumbled down the steps like wheels. The long and narrow steps were like a huge washboard, and the two people became the clothes on it, being rubbed hard by the collision, all the way down.
Being held in Zheng Xiao's arms, Yaomei felt that her back was hurt by the impact of the steps, which made her want to cry out. So Zheng Xiao, who used his body to protect her vitals, could have expected it.
It was so painful, but his arms tightly wrapped around himself, preventing him from getting out.
Gulu gulu, the two of them rolled all the way out of the alley, then bumped into a stone at the entrance of the alley, and finally stopped.
The muscles on Zheng Xiao's face twitched violently. Just when he stopped, the hard edge of the stone bumper hit his lower back. A sharp pain like being torn apart came from there, making him stunned.
Almost fainted.
"Can't pass out." Zheng Xiao roared to himself, and then bit his tongue hard. The pain made him wake up again. He raised his body slightly, pulled out the pistol from the holster on his leg, and pointed it at
The Japanese soldiers rushed out of the alley.
Two gunshots rang out, and the Japs at the front suddenly swayed, then fell down the steps, rolling down the stairs with a gurgling sound, while the ones behind him hurriedly stopped.
"Flash!"
Holding the frightened Yaomei, Zheng Xiao's body rolled out. Behind him, the bullets fired by the Japanese chased the bodies of the two people. The bluestone slabs on the ground were hit by sparks and stone chips flew everywhere.
After a while of rolling, just when the enemy's bullets were about to catch up with Zheng Xiao and the others, the two of them rolled into the stone and finally escaped the enemy's pursuit.
Letting go of Yaomei's elastic body, Zheng Xiao grinned and said, "Okay, can you get up first?"
Ah——, Yaomei finally came to her senses, hurriedly turned over and got out of Zheng Xiao's arms, and sat on the back of the stone, her heart beating fiercely.
She didn't know why she had forgotten about his embrace just now and allowed him to hold her for so long. Was it because she felt safe and peaceful there?
"What time is it now? Do you still have time to think wildly?" Yaomei shook her head and drove these thoughts away. Then she pulled out her short sword, approached Zheng Xiao and said, "What should we do now?"
Zheng Xiao had already turned over and sat up. A piece of skin was shaved off by a Japanese grenade on his shoulder, and blood gushed out like a spring. He frowned, then used the first aid kit to deal with it, and then looked outside Shi Nian.
At the entrance of the alley, more than twenty Japanese soldiers had appeared, hiding behind the hiding place, aiming their guns at Shi Nian. As soon as they showed up, they would be greeted by a barrage of Japanese fire.
"Are you injured?" Seeing the blood seeping out of the gauze on Zheng Xiao's shoulder, Yaomei's heart tightened for no reason.
"It's okay, it's just a scratch." Zheng Xiao waved his hand casually, his eyes never leaving the Japs soldiers on the opposite side. He was thinking, "The situation is a bit not right. The team after the Japs entered the village should not be able to gather in such a large number.
together."
He already knew the terrain of this village very well. Under the deliberate harassment of Yaomei and his clan, the people who came in were scattered and then defeated one by one. It was impossible for so many people to gather together.
If these people hadn't found a way to gather together, then there would be only one explanation: the Japanese reinforcements had arrived.
The captain Matsui Ishizo who was chasing him was a very difficult guy. He was thoughtful and scheming. He would definitely send someone to inform the Japanese army.
According to time calculation, the rockfall at the entrance of the valley has almost been dug up, and the Japanese should have entered the valley, so it would make sense if they were Japanese reinforcements.
However, if this is really the reinforcements of the Japs, then the village may be in catastrophe. The Japs have killed so many people here, and they will definitely not give up. If things go wrong, they will wash out the ancient village with blood.
Thinking of this, Zheng Xiao told Yaomei his estimate, and she immediately became anxious, "Brother Zheng, all the elderly, women and children in the village have been gathered in the ancestral hall for refuge. I'm afraid there will be trouble."
Zheng Xiao nodded, looked outside, then took off the last two flash bombs, held them in his hands, then took out a pair of goggles and put them on Yaomei, and whispered, "I'll let you run away in a while.
, you just run towards the entrance of the alley, I will cover you from behind."
Although she was very curious about what this thing on her head was, she had no time to study it at this time. Yaomei nodded in response, then stood up, "Okay, Brother Zheng, you have to pay attention to your safety."
The stone mill is very high. When two people stand up, they are still more than half a foot away from the stone mill, which can completely block their figures.
three!
two!
one!
Zheng Xiao pulled the tab of the flash bomb and threw them out. The two guys flew over the stone mill and landed at the entrance of the alley.
——Bang——!
The Japs were stunned for a moment, and then they felt a flash of white light in front of their eyes. The next moment they covered their burned eyes, fell to the ground and howled in pain.
Zheng Xiao dodged out from behind the stone crusher. He held up his automatic rifle and fired continuously at the area covered by flash bombs. He turned his head and shouted, "Run."
Yaomei glanced at Zheng Xiao, then ran out from behind the stone crusher, rushed toward the alley on the left like an arrow, and disappeared into the alley in the blink of an eye.
Zheng Xiao's automatic rifle had a flat end, blocking the enemy's firepower, and then quickly retreated towards the entrance of the alley, and also rushed into the alley.
Yaomei was waiting at the wall at the entrance of the alley. Seeing that Zheng Xiao had successfully retreated into the alley, she felt relieved. She pulled Zheng Xiao, turned around and ran away, "Follow me quickly."
, I know a very secluded shortcut that can go around to the ancestral hall."
The two people, one behind the other, ran deeper down the alley.
"Baga, chase quickly!"
Outside the alley, the Japs who had reacted got up from the ground. Regardless of the corpses of their companions lying on the ground, they shouted and chased after them.
