After her rebirth, she became the sweetheart of the sickly uncle.

He left a mark on the shadow guard somewhere, and when he was about to leave, he suddenly felt that a pair of eyes had been looking at him.

Ye Tantai picked up a stone and threw it into the bushes. Ah Yue was hit and exclaimed: "Spare my life!"

The man frowned. There was only an injured Qiang woman in an empty camp. Why?

"who are you?"

Ye Tantai's sword has been unsheathed and placed on Ah Yue's neck.

"I...I...please spare my life, sir." Ah Yue was so frightened that she could not speak coherently, and the only words in her mind were the words "spare my life."

Ye Tantai suddenly smelled a familiar smell. He moved closer and it came from the wound on the woman's face.

He had smelled this smell in the palace, but he had forgotten the specific location.

Before Ye Tantai could react, the voices of several Qiang people came from a distance. They spoke in Qiang dialect, but Ye Tantai could understand it.

"Where do you think that Dongling woman went?"

"I don't know. I don't know why the leader insists on looking for her. We shouldn't be discovered if we sneak back."

"No, they are searching all over the mountains and plains. If one or two people are missing, they won't find it."

Su Qingcheng ran away...

Ye Tantai captured this key information.

The two Qiang people who were talking walked further and further away, and finally stopped in a certain tent. After a long time of silence, Ye Tantai came out from the grass.

Su Qingcheng ran away, and the entire camp went out to look for her, not knowing what danger she would face.

Just thinking of that scene, Ye Tantai's heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.

He let go of Ah Yue and was about to leave. Ah Yue hugged his foot and bit it hard.

"You are not allowed to chase her." Ah Yue said in the Central Plains dialect.

Ye Tantai was in pain, and he broke away with a little effort. He pointed his sword directly at Ah Yue's neck and said sternly: "You can speak the Central Plains dialect. Who is she you just talked about?"

Ah Yue changed her fearful look and said resolutely: "I don't know anything, just kill me."

Ye Tantai realized that she might know which direction Su Qingcheng had gone, and his voice became less serious: "I am King Yunan, the husband of that woman, and I am here to save her."

Ah Yue looked at him suspiciously, still refusing to speak.

Just when Ye Tantai was about to have a good talk with her, the Qiang army came back.

"Come with me." Ye Tantai grabbed Ah Yue and the two of them hid in a tent.

Tuoba Yan said angrily: "A bunch of trash, you can't even look down on a woman, what's the use of you! I've searched half of the mountain and still can't find it. Could it be that she took the waterway?"

Ye Tantai was hiding when a Qiang man came in. He had an idea and threw a stone. The Qiang man fell to the ground instantly.

He walked out, put on the man's clothes, and said to Ah Yue, "I'm really here to save her."

Ah Yue hesitated, but finally said it: "She took the waterway."

Tuoba Yan outside also said: "Everyone, come with me on the waterway, I don't believe she's not here."

Ye Tantai did not dare to delay. He was only one person at this time, and there were at least hundreds of Qiang people here.

Even if there was a fight, even if he could escape unscathed, he probably wouldn't be able to protect Su Qingcheng.

So the way he came up with was to disguise himself as a Qiang person, follow them, and find Su Qingcheng before they found her.

"Thank you, I'll go rescue her right now."

After Ye Tantai politely thanked him, he put on Qiang clothes and walked out.

The man he knocked unconscious happened to be a low-ranking soldier in the tribe, walking at the back.

The people around him were also busy looking for someone, and they didn't pay attention to whether the person around him was the original person.

Ye Tantai took advantage of the dark moon and high winds, and everyone's faces and bodies were covered with dirt, and he quietly killed the more than 20 people at the back of the team one by one.

When he walks to the middle of the team, the people around him will have higher martial arts skills than the people at the end of the team. It is really difficult to assassinate without making a sound.

So he stopped for a moment.

"Hey, what are you doing behind you so slowly?" A Qiang man in front looked at him and asked.

"The cold wind at night makes my bones hurt." Ye Tantai replied in Qiang dialect.

The man stopped walking forward and noticed something strange.

"Where are the privates in the back?"

Ye Tan said without changing his expression: "They said we should take that road."

He pointed in a random direction, and the man looked along his gaze. Before he saw anything, the head had already fallen to the ground.

Ye Tantai walked over his body coldly, took off his outer shirt that represented his identity and put it on himself.

With this piece of clothing, he can move forward.

After passing through several scattered teams, Ye Tantai finally heard the sound of water, indicating that he had entered the waterway, and Su Qingcheng was not far away...

Su Qingcheng walked along the waterway for a long time, but still didn't see anyone on the detour.

"How is it possible? I clearly saw this section of waterway on the map of the Princess Mansion before. There should be a small village here."

The emptiness in front of her made her feel helpless.

She was so determined to take the waterway, placing her hope on the villages on the waterway. Maybe Tuobayan's people have caught up now.

The long hours of running around made her physically and mentally exhausted, and the cold wind by the river gave her a headache.

"It's impossible to go back the way we came. We can only look for caves nearby." Su Qingcheng murmured.

She gritted her teeth and walked forward. After walking for about an hour, she finally saw a mountain man's house in front of her.

Su Qingcheng took out the few pieces of silver she had left and knocked on the family's door. A pair of eyes that were only half her height emerged from the crack in the door.

"I'd like to stay overnight, is that possible?" Su Qingcheng said gently.

The door was opened, and inside were a frail old man and a skinny child.

"Looking at you, you should be from the city. We are just ordinary mountain people and cannot be offended." The old man said.

His voice sounded like it came from the ground.

The cold wind blew, and Su Qingcheng couldn't help but shudder, and said, "I was rude. If I can't stay overnight, can you tell me where there is a cave?"

The old man raised his hand and pointed in a direction, and the door was closed from the inside.

Just as Su Qingcheng was about to leave, she suddenly remembered something, knocked on the door again, and said, "May I ask how to get out of here?"

"Just walk along the south side of the cave." The old man's voice came from the house.

"Thank you." Su Qingcheng was very grateful and put some broken silver on the ground.

The grandfather and grandson depended on each other in the deep mountains and old forests. When they met someone like her who seemed to have a complicated status, they would of course stay away from her. Su Qingcheng was very grateful to be able to point her to a clear path.

She walked in the direction pointed by the old man and saw a cave.

Su Qingcheng lit a bonfire and fell asleep leaning against the stone wall.
