Economic and Trade Song Dynasty

Qin Juan hesitated whether to rush up to see if Gu Yue fell to the ground, he only hesitated for a moment, covered his mouth and nose, and ran over.

No matter what, he couldn't let Gu Yue be in danger.

The moment Qin Juan arrived, he saw a sharp white blade that was about to cut the wrist of the person lying on the ground in an instant.

Qin Juan was trembling all over, kicked the white blade away, and grabbed Gu Yue's wrist.

Warm blood flowed from Qin Juan's fingers.

"Gu Yue!" Qin Juan's nerves were tense to the extreme. Now he didn't know that the ghost thing had cut on the outside of Gu Yue's wrist. The knife stabbed at him.

The ghost lacked internal strength, but the speed was extremely fast. Qin Juan couldn't dodge it, and was stabbed in the arm, bleeding profusely.

Qin Juan hastily tore off a strip of cloth from his inner jacket, wrapped it around Gu Yue's wrist, tied the knot, and then stabbed at the ghost in the dark.

Qin Juan knew that this ghost's internal strength was not as good as his after only three moves, but this speed was faster than Danmu's!

Never let him escape!Otherwise, it will definitely not be caught!

That ghost also knew that he couldn't beat Qin Juan, and just wanted to escape, but was caught by Qin Juan desperately.

When Qin Juan grabbed it, he almost let go in fright. The skin under his hands didn't look like human skin, the bumps and holes looked like they had been burnt by something!

Qin Juan suppressed the discomfort and pushed the man to the ground!

He took out the rope wrapped around his waist and tied the man until he couldn't move.

He took a deep breath, wanting to see how Gu Yue was doing, but he didn't dare to relax, took out the torch and lit it.

The light flashed by, and he saw in front of him...

He was so scared that he sat on the ground between exclamations.

What the hell is this monster!

The whole body is pitch black, and the pitted skin looks like it was burned like this...

"It's from Jiao Yu?" Qin Juan asked tremblingly, could this be from Jiao Yu?

The pitch-black person did not speak, as if he was dead.If the whole face wasn't for the light shining in his eyes, Qin Juan wouldn't be able to tell whether this person was a living thing...

If this person is from Jiao Yu, can he guess that there are Jiao Yu tribes living here?

Therefore, this person wants to scare them away, so that they don't want them to discover their clan lair.

If his guess was reasonable, he might know something.

"We just want to go through here. If you let us out, I will let you go." Qin Juan didn't know if he could understand Chinese, and he gestured with his hands as he spoke.

But this person, like a fool, just watched him without moving.

Qin Juan didn't want to waste any more time, he turned around to look at Gu Yue's injuries, and found that Gu Yue only hurt the outside of his wrist, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

It was also at this time that he felt pain in his arm, and when he stretched out his hand to touch it, there were large bloodstains.

He was a little dizzy in the firelight... Wiping off the blood on his hands, he reached out to pinch Gu Yue's people.

Not long after, Gu Yue woke up, saw Qin Juan's face in the firelight, and asked in a hoarse voice: "What's wrong..."

"The man caught him, but he didn't speak." Qin Juan said, squinting at his wrist, "And you're injured."

It's fine if he doesn't say anything, but Gu Yue feels pain when he talks about it.

"I bandaged you, don't worry too much."

"Is he going to kill me?" Gu Yue asked.

"Ah."

"Why." He sat up, looked at the dark person beside him, was startled, and couldn't speak for a while.

Qin Juan asked him, "Is he from Jiao Yu?"

Gu Yue didn't know: "I'll ask him, just wait a moment."

Gu Yue moved in front of that person, and asked in Yinshan dialect: "Are you from Jiao Yu?"

Qin Juan saw the eyes of the lying ghost moved, and Qin Juan also understood that this person could understand Yinshan dialect.

After being defeated by the Yinshan Miao people, the Jiao Yu people migrated to this virgin forest, but in order to find out who was defeated and revenge, they began to capture the Yinshan Miao people who came down from Yinshan and learned their language.

So they can understand Yinshan dialect.

The ghost didn't speak, but pressed its scorched lips tightly.

"You don't need to ask, he is from Jiao Yu." Qin Juan said.

Gu Yue looked at him, although he was puzzled, he was roughly sure.

Gu Yue: "It's no wonder that those who entered the forest have such a small chance of surviving. It turns out that they are playing tricks."

Gu Yue grabbed the man by the neck: "Damn it! Where are all your people hiding?"

The ghost thing began to struggle frantically, roaring and screaming, and the sound was extremely unpleasant.

Seeing this, Qin Juan covered Ghost's mouth with a bag: "We can't deal with someone coming now! Don't irritate him yet."

Gu Yue withdrew her hand, momentarily at a loss.

Qin Juan: "Tell him that we won't hurt him, as long as they let us out."

Gu Yue recounted it.

The ghost didn't speak, and still looked at the two of them timidly.

"How can he talk like this!" Gu Yue shook her hand angrily.

To tell the truth, Qin Juan did the same.

"Wait until Tao Hua and Xiao Qu'er come over." Qin Juan lit another torch and looked around, "He should be the tomb guard. He is the only one here. The first two times he wanted to pretend to be a ghost to scare us away. Seeing that you can’t go away in fear, you want to kill us.”

Gu Yue said "Yes", and suddenly heard a few birds chirping, Qin Juan also responded like a wolf howling.

Qin Juan and Gu Yue didn't notice that the lying ghost trembled when he heard the wolf howling.

Not long after, Tao Hua came out of the stone forest with Xiao Qu'er in her arms.

When Qin Juan was imprisoned in the Palace of the King, he and Xiao Qu'er had exchanged secret codes. If they were separated, they would be safe after learning how to sing like a bird and waiting for him to respond with a wolf howl.

After they were reunited, Qin Juan explained the situation here.

Taohua suddenly said: "Let me talk to him."

Gu Yue was about to speak, but was dragged away by Qin Juan: "Just let Taohua talk to him."

Qin Juan asked Tao Hua and Xiao Qu'er to stay here, and went to the Stone Forest with Gu Yue.

Gu Yue: "What do you mean, you're not afraid of that person attacking Peach Blossom?"

Qin Juan raised his eyebrows: "Peach blossom?"

He said almost casually, "Peach Blossom is also your name?"

"..." Gu Yue's ears turned red all of a sudden, and she felt uncomfortable all over.

Qin Juan looked at him and felt a little strange, what's the matter with this man?

"Don't you want me to keep calling him a lowly slave!" Gu Yue blurted out, "Besides, isn't his name Taohua? Isn't his name just for people to call him?"

Qin Juan thought about it, yes, what does his name Taohua have to do with me.

"I'm just talking casually, I just think that if you really call him Taohua, he will be frightened by you..."

Gu Yue wondered, "I'm so scary..."

"Maybe you are scary when you face Taohua, and Xiaoqu'er is also a little afraid of you." Qin Juan said seriously.

Gu Yue was silent: "..."

Qin Juan hugged her chest: "Also, I let Taohua talk to the tomb guard because Taohua is gentler than us both in appearance and voice, and Taohua is very powerful. Don't underestimate him."

Gu Yue pursed her lips, and said after a while: "I didn't underestimate him." He said that he was just worried about Taohua's safety... Forget it, he didn't know what was going on, if he did, there would be no For a moment, I felt overwhelmed.

Qin Juan didn't notice that Gu Yue lowered his head, and he continued: "If there are many Jiao Yu people living here, they are hidden and fast, attacking passers-by and soldiers who come into the forest, they guard in their own way. This forest of theirs creates a cold and weird illusion, so it makes sense..."

Gu Yue raised her head: "Moreover, some of them know how to set up formations, and their craftsmen are very good. They can set up mechanism traps and make such weird mechanism techniques..."

Having said that, Gu Yue looked very excited.

"Not only that... this place can also suppress Gu's temperament." Qin Juan said this sentence suddenly, of course this is his guess, the main reason is that after entering here, the emperor in the body has not moved at all.

Qin Juan reminded Gu Yue by saying this, so Gu Yue untied a bamboo tube from his waist, opened it, and was surprised to find that a Gu he raised had died.

"Impossible, my Gu can live for half a year without eating or drinking, how could it die!" Gu Yue growled.

Only then did Qin Juan realize that this bamboo tube was the bamboo tube used to hold Gu.

Qin Juan: "Could it be that after their ancestors were defeated by your ancestors, they began to study how to restrain Gu?"

Gu Yue suddenly realized.

"It seems that they have been preparing for a long time, so why haven't they done it for so many years?"

Qin Juan: "It should be because of the population. They have been here all along, and almost everyone in the clan is related by blood. It may be because of close relatives and in-laws that the newborn children cannot support them..."

Gu Yue: "That's right, and they are so stupid, why attack the army, wouldn't it be better to let them in?"

Qin Juan: "How can they figure out whether the army from outside is here to attack them or to attack Yinshan!"

Just as he was talking, Qin Juan heard Xiao Qu'er's bird cry again, he responded like a wolf howling, and then he and Gu Yue went to find Taohua and the others.

"I have already told him that we escaped from Yinshan, and we just want to come here immediately. He said that he doesn't know the way out, but he can take us to meet their elders." Taohua said to Qin Juan and Gu Yue .

Gu Yue: "If we enter other people's lair, what if we are killed by them!"

"He said that he had sworn to their king's tomb that he would not lie, and he promised that we would not die." Taohua said again.

Gu Yue snorted coldly: "Do you believe this kind of nonsense? He's already enough of a ghost! He's still afraid of dragging us to hell?"

Taohua took a deep breath: "It's better for us to vote, the minority obeys the majority."

"..." Gu Yue froze for a moment.

Both Qin Juan and Xiao Qu'er stood beside Tao Hua.

Gu Yue suddenly wanted to die, and shouted: "Okay, you three are in the same group! I will be unlucky for eight lifetimes to meet you!"

When Gu Yue was angry, the silver crown on her hair and the silver earrings on her ears would tremble and make harsh sounds...

To be honest, Qin Juan felt a little sympathy for Gu Yue at this moment.

This person looks quite lonely sometimes, but it doesn't prevent him from being hateful when he is hateful...

"There is no other way. If we can't get out, we will starve to death here. It's better to fight for a chance." Qin Juan said in a low voice.

Tao Hua nodded: "Besides, we are not the generation to be bullied."
