Daiyu of the Red Chamber raised a cat
Chapter 58
There are many traps on the way down the mountain, if you are not careful, you may be caught.
Holding Daiyu's hand, Zhou Hang ran quickly, closely following the big black cat that was exploring the way ahead.The whole body of the big black cat is pure black, only four paws are snow white.The moon was hiding behind a mass of dark clouds, and it was almost impossible to see anything in the dark night. Daiyu could only see four small white dots jumping up and down in front of her, which were the four hooves of the big black cat.
There was a light rain two days ago, the ground was not dry yet, the mountain was full of dirt roads, and they took small paths, which were even more muddy and slippery. Daiyu almost slipped several times, but fortunately Zhou Han pulled her, I didn't fall down.
After all, the physical strength of girls cannot be compared with that of men, not to mention that a lady like Daiyu usually rides a sedan chair when she goes out, and lacks exercise.So after running for about a quarter of an hour, Daiyu's legs became weak, and she was too tired to lift her feet, panting heavily.
In the end, even his head was dizzy and he couldn't see the way clearly, so he was dragged away by Zhou Hang almost instinctively.
Running all the way down the mountain, Daiyu leaned against a tree and almost sat on the ground.At this moment, her throat was dry and painful, and her internal organs seemed to be mixed together, rolling in her stomach.Turning his head to Zhou Hang quietly, he also leaned on a tree and panted heavily.The few women who ran out after hearing her words followed. They were quite smart and knew how to run after the big black cat, otherwise they would be caught in those traps even if they wanted to run out.
That's right, if you don't have a bit of intelligence and courage, you don't dare to run away.
Just like the rest of the women, who obviously have the opportunity, but are indifferent and dare not try.I'm afraid that if he fails to escape and is caught, he will be subjected to a more miserable situation.However, it has always been necessary to take risks if you want to accomplish something. People often need to think about what will happen if they succeed. Do they not do it because of the risks?Are you willing to endure the current inhuman treatment just because you are afraid that you may be subjected to more cruel abuse?
A smart person will make the choice that is most beneficial to him.
Just like her now, although she is more certain of escaping than others, it is not without any risk.But you can't just do nothing because of this risk, just let them be at their mercy.It has come to this point, how can it be the worst?
Closer surveillance?
Worse treatment?
How can it be?
They are all controlled by others, how much difference can there be?
The big deal is another battle of wits and courage.There will always be times when they are neglected.
Lin Daiyu and Zhou Hang had already stopped, and the women were still running forward crookedly supporting each other.
On the mountain, they suffered far more rapes than Daiyu, and naturally they were far more afraid of those bandits than Daiyu.When people are under extreme fear, they often burst out with superhuman strength.The only belief these girls have now is to escape and escape from the clutches of the bandits.Therefore, Zhou Hang wouldn't be surprised even if they exploded ten times more stamina and perseverance than this.
They are all miserable people!
Daiyu sighed, but also forced herself to follow.Ma Ye's men are still searching the village, while the bandits are busy fighting the fire, so no one has chased them out yet.But the current situation is definitely not optimistic.After all, if you can't find it on the mountain, Master Ma will soon send someone along the mountain road to look for it.
There is a large forest at the foot of the mountain, the forest is deep and dense, the girls entered the forest without any hesitation.Holding Daiyu's hand, Zhou Hang turned and walked in another direction.Daiyu looked back and pursed her lips. Although there was deep worry in her eyes, she didn't say anything after all, but let Zhou Hang pull herself away.It's not that she doesn't care about the lives of these girls, but that Daiyu can't help them even when she is in danger.She has already brought them down the mountain, as for what happens next, it depends on their fate.
These girls were not originally planned, but under the circumstances at that time, seeing the situation of those women, she could not remain indifferent.
This is not weakness, but a person's conscience.
But no one with a conscience can remain indifferent under such circumstances.
So, then, almost subconsciously, she yelled that sentence.Although she planned to go back early in the morning and tell her father what happened here, and let her go to the court to send people to suppress the bandits and rescue the hostages.But after all, this place is not under the jurisdiction of Yangzhou, and these bandits seem to have some collusion with the government, so it is not impossible that there is no possibility of obedience.What's more, even if the government really sends troops to kill the bandits, those bandits are all desperadoes. If the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, it is very likely that all the hostages will be burned and all the hostages will be killed.
So, if possible, it's better to escape.
Daiyu showed them a way and also a hope, a hope of regaining their freedom and getting rid of their tragic fate.
She just told them that if they acted, it was possible to escape.She didn't force them to do this, it was up to them whether they dared to take risks.If possible, Daiyu would naturally hope to watch them escape with her own eyes, but since her own safety cannot be guaranteed, she has no choice.After the grain depot caught fire, the bandits must have been busy putting out the fire first, and came down the mountain to catch them who should be Ma Ye's people. Even if there were bandits, they would follow Ma Ye's orders.Their target is themselves, not those girls. If they catch those girls and go back, it would be a waste of manpower. Master Ma probably wouldn't do that.
Therefore, Daiyu is [-]% sure that those girls will not be taken back.
Daiyu was almost exhausted and dragged by Zhou Hang across a low grass.Xia Chan sang "Zhi Zhi", and there were many noisy chirping of various insects and birds.At this moment, Daiyu was not in the mood to listen to the sounds of nature. She supported Zhou Hang's arm vigorously and dressed roughly.
"No, I really can't run anymore."
Zhou Hang was also panting from exhaustion, but at least he was a man, and his physical strength was much stronger than Daiyu's.Although his legs were weak, he could still hold on.Knowing that Daiyu had reached her limit, he felt very distressed.Not far ahead is a hill with lush vegetation, Zhou Hang intends to find a hidden place to rest there first.Seeing that Daiyu was already tired, he knelt down and said, "You come up first, I will carry you on my back."
Daiyu waved her hand to wake her up, and said, "You are tired too, how can I make you carry me on your back?"
While talking, he went to the spiritual spring water from the space, took a bowl for himself, and gave Zhou Hang another bowl.
"Drink it quickly. The water in the space is different from the outside. It has benefits that many medicines don't have. Maybe it can relieve fatigue."
Zhou Hang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly took Gululu and drank it.After drinking it, I really feel better, and my legs feel stronger.He hurriedly urged Daiyu to say: "It really works, you should drink some." Seeing that Daiyu had finished drinking a bowl of water, he passed the bowl to Daiyu's hand and asked Daiyu to fill her up again. bowl.
Daiyu and Zhou Hang both drank two bowls of water, and finally felt better.Although I still feel tired, my legs and feet are not as weak as before.Daiyu's eyesight was not good at night. Looking forward, it was pitch black everywhere. Although Zhou Hang is now in human body, it may be affected by the cat's body, and his night vision ability is super strong.While moving his legs and feet, he looked at the hills in the distance, and described to Daiyu how far away he was, how long it would take to cross several small slopes, and how long it would take.
This is the beginning. To return to Yangzhou City, there are still hundreds of miles to go.Zhou Hang wondered where he could find a horse. Wouldn't it be too late to return to Yangzhou with just these two legs?
Thinking about him, she asked Daiyu if she dared to ride a horse.
He didn't ask Daiyu if she could ride a horse, because he knew Daiyu couldn't.
The ladies in ancient times were not as open as the ones in the 21st century. They always stayed out of the door and never walked. They saw a lot of horses and made a lot of carriages. They must have never ridden a horse.Riding a horse looks simple, but it is also a technical job, and it cannot be done on horseback.Horses, especially fine horses, have a temper and arrogance. If you can suppress it, it’s fine. If a person who doesn’t know how to ride a horse sits on it without authorization, it dares to throw him off without hesitation.
Zhou Hang rode a horse for the first time when he was five years old. He sat in the front and his mother escorted him behind.Riding and riding Mom suddenly wanted him to ride by himself, man, he almost fell off the horse.
When they planned their escape route, they also thought about riding down the mountain.The reason why this plan was rejected in the end was that apart from Daiyu’s inability to ride a horse, another important reason was that if he rode down the mountain, he had to use amulets for the horses. There were only four amulets in total, two of which were Used to escape enemy surveillance in chaos.The other two, and the only two remaining, are reserved for emergencies, and cannot be used until a critical moment.
In addition, once the horse is running, the sound of the horse's hooves slapping the ground is easy to detect.
Daiyu obviously thought of this question too.
When I came, I came by carriage, and it took almost two days.To go back or take a carriage, at least it will take two days.In two days, anything can happen.If possible, it is natural to go back as soon as possible.Yangzhou City doesn't know what's going on recently, she is very worried about her father, she was hijacked and disappeared for several days, her father still doesn't know what to worry about now.It's true that her father is a good official who works for the public and the people wholeheartedly, but she couldn't imagine whether her father would compromise if the bad guys used her as a threat.
She can't let her father do something against her principles because of herself, and she won't feel at ease for the rest of her life.
Not wanting to embarrass her father, thinking that her father might not think about food and tea for her own sake, Daiyu wished she could grow wings and fly back to Yangzhou immediately.
"I dare to ride!" Daiyu raised her head, her eyes full of determination.
Zhou Hang didn't expect her to speak so decisively. In the hot and humid summer night, these words were like spring water freshly drawn from a well, exuding bursts of coolness.Sister Lin is not an ordinary weak woman, she is much stronger and braver than he thought.
Zhou Hang felt that his youthful passion had been stimulated.
For a distance of several hundred miles, if you buy a horse, it will take almost a day.Thinking of this, Zhou Hang couldn't help thinking of the scene where he and Lin Daiyu rode together.Except when he was in the cat body, he seemed to have never been so close to sister Lin before.Sister Lin doesn't know how to ride a horse, and he certainly won't let her ride by herself, so he and she can only ride together.At that time, the skirt of the skirt rubbed against the skirt of the skirt, and the body was close to the body. Thinking of this week, Hang hurriedly shook his head to dispel the messy thoughts in his mind.
Zhou Hang, Zhou Hang, what are you thinking about?
Isn't this desecrating sister Lin?
What's more, fleeing for your life is the most important thing now, don't rush to get rid of those irrelevant things from your mind.
At this moment, a row of bright torches rose in the night sky.The stars are scattered, looking from a distance, like bright lights flickering in the dark sky.It was Lord Ma's men who came after him, Daiyu urged Zhou Hang to leave quickly, and calculated how long the invisibility talisman on him would last.Zhou Hang's was used earlier than Daiyu's, with only a quarter of an hour of invisibility left, while Daiyu had half an hour left.Those torches moved very fast, it seemed that those people were not on foot, but on horseback.
The foot strength of a horse is not on the same level as that of a human, and it will be a matter of time before they are caught up.But now the effectiveness of the invisibility charms on the two of them has not been exhausted. When these people catch up after a while, they can just find a place where they are not easy to crash.When the time of the invisibility talisman runs out, these people should chase them to a farther place. Even if they don't, they can go into the space to hide, and come out when someone walks away.
The row of flames quickly moved from the mountainside to the foot of the mountain. Daiyu looked at it from a distance and estimated the number, there were about thirty or forty people.At the foot of the mountain, they were dispersed and divided into three parts.Some go forward, some go left, and some go right.
The one to the right, that is, the direction of Zhou Hang and Daiyu has the most people.
It may also be because the right side is the north, and Yangzhou City is on the north side.
This was a situation that had already been expected, although after knowing that they were missing, this group of people would definitely chase after them in the direction of Yangzhou, Daiyu and Zhou Hang couldn't stop going to Yangzhou City because of this.As for why they didn't deliberately choose a direction other than Yangzhou City, it wasn't that they didn't think of it, but that it wasn't necessary.
They have aura in their hands, invisibility charms, space, with these, as long as they don't want to be caught, those people can't even try to find them even if they dig three feet, so why bother.
When she was in Yingmei Temple, Daiyu didn't want to be exposed, so she followed their way.
As for later, when he woke up in a strange carriage and didn't know Zhou Hang's situation, he had to make false claims with them.It was so easy for them to return Zhou Hang to him, but Zhou Hang was seriously injured and unable to transform, and he was closely monitored by them, and he never found a chance.
Now that Daiyu and Zhou Hang have taken precautions, they will not succeed so easily.
There are about 20 people to the right.There was nothing to hide on the grass, and soon, they searched the hill where Daiyu and Zhou Hang were.The leader was Ma Ye. When they arrived in the woods, they dismounted and searched every place carefully, even tree holes and treetops.
Daiyu and Zhou Hang didn't dare to run anymore, they leaned side by side on a thick tree trunk, not daring to move, not even daring to breathe loudly.The big black cat had already been taken into the space by Lin Daiyu.Most of these people are martial arts practitioners with very keen senses. As long as there is a little movement, there is a danger of being discovered.
Although they searched very carefully, it was impossible to touch every tree, so Daiyu and Zhou Hang were not found.
Daiyu counted the time, Zhou Hang's invisibility talisman should soon expire.Maybe there is still half an hour, she is not sure, in short, it will not be too long.Instead of waiting until the invisibility talisman fails and rushing into the space, it is better to go in early.
Stretching out her finger to poke Zhou Hang's shoulder, Daiyu indicated with her eyes whether she wants to enter the space now.
Zhou Hang shook his head, meaning there is still some time, so wait and see.
About a minute or two later, there was a sound of horseshoes from a distance, and two people came over.The two men galloped up to Lord Ma, dismounted and saluted, and said: "I want to report to Lord Ma, six women were found in the forest to the south, two women, four girls, and there is no Miss Lin we are looking for." .”
Lin Daiyu didn't know what Master Ma's expression was, she only heard his voice was a little angry and impatient.
"Really not, do you see the truth?"
The man said: "The subordinates have checked one by one, there really are none! The subordinates have already asked those women, and they said that they were the only ones who escaped, and there was no one surnamed Lin. By the way, one of the women said that they heard A girl's voice told them to go west and they could escape, so they dared to run out."
Master Ma let out an "oh" and asked, "What kind of girl can she say?"
The subordinate said: "She said that it was too dark, she didn't see anyone, she only saw voices, and there was a big black cat leading the way. When they walked to the foot of the mountain, they entered the forest in the south, and the big black cat disappeared. Cat. Said it might have gone north."
"That's right!" Master Ma ordered the subordinates to go down and call people from the other two places, and said to everyone in the forest: "All listen to my order!" Then he called seven or eight people by name and ordered them to come out. Lin Zi searched northward, especially the road to Yangzhou, and he had to pay great attention to both major roads and small roads.He himself led the rest of the people to search in the woods.
Daiyu guessed that the person surnamed Ma felt that she hadn't run out of the woods yet. After all, if she only relied on two legs, unless she was a hero who jumped over the roof and wall in the storybook, most people didn't have such good foot strength.
Hearing what that person said just now, Daiyu felt relieved.Master Ma was mainly catching himself, and those women were out of their consideration.Judging from the man's words, they didn't seem to embarrass the women either.
Just as she was thinking, Daiyu suddenly felt a bright light in front of her eyes, and she suddenly entered the light from the darkness, and she couldn't help squinting her eyes as the light stimulated her.
Daiyu snorted and said, "Why didn't you know me before you entered the space?"
"Well, it's time for the invisibility talisman!" Seeing Daiyu pouted and frowning, Zhou Hang couldn't help but smile.It seems that her arrival has changed Sister Lin's character.Now Sister Lin is no longer an orphan girl dependent on others. With her own company and Father Lin's love, she is no longer the sentimental character she was before. On the contrary, she is a bit sweet and naive, which sounds cute.
Of course, this doesn't mean that Sister Lin has no self-cultivation. Her cuteness is just in front of Father Lin and him. She is still very knowledgeable and reasonable in front of outsiders, and her behavior is commendable.
As soon as Zhou Hang's words fell, the invisibility talisman attached to his body instantly turned into a flame and disappeared without a trace.
It's really stealth time!
The design of this invisibility symbol is quite fun.When it was first pasted, it was an ordinary talisman paper, but when the time passed, it started to feel slightly hot, reminding people to arrange their time reasonably.When the last quarter of an hour is left, the countdown begins. First, a glowing red light is emitted from the bottom. Of course, this red light can only be seen by those who have used the invisibility talisman.The red light was just a line at first, and gradually widened. When the entire talisman paper glowed red, it was the time when the invisibility time was exhausted and the invisibility talisman was about to fail.
Daiyu is not an unreasonable person. In such an emergency situation, she would advance the space and explain later.Because if it is too late to enter the space, and it happens to be discovered by Master Ma's people, it will be a big trouble.
Space comes out wherever it enters.
In the space, you can sense the situation in a radius of eight feet around the outside world, and it can't be farther away.
It is estimated that Ma Ye and the others will not leave for a while, so Zhou Hang and Daiyu can't easily leave the space for a while,
Although Daiyu's invisibility talisman still has a lot of time, it is useless in space.The invisibility talisman is for one-time use, and Daiyu couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity."
Zhou Hang said: "What a pity, it has already played its role, didn't it help us escape, what's the pity?"
After hearing this, Daiyu thought it made sense, so she couldn't help laughing and said, "I'm pedantic."
Although Zhou Hang didn't read novels very much in his previous life, he heard his relatives' cousin nagging a lot about the portable space.Cousin is a fan of novels. Although her family also runs several companies and is very wealthy, she always fantasizes that one day she will be reborn into a court marquis or a wealthy family, hold a portable space, and start a wonderful life of upgrading and fighting monsters.
In the past, Zhou Hang was most afraid of seeing her, because they were the only relatives of the same age.
The elders don't listen to her nonsensical nagging, so she always comes to bother him.
The few knowledge of time travel, rebirth, and portable space in Zhou Hang's mind is thanks to his cousin.
Zhou Hang didn't believe that there was such a thing as portable space in this world before. Of course, he also didn't believe in rebirth and time travel.But now, the facts are in front of you, and you have to believe it if you don’t believe it.Portable space is often tied to self-cultivation. Think about it, you already have such a magic weapon that produces your own spiritual energy and self-produced spiritual spring. Wouldn’t it be a pity if you don’t cultivate yourself?Of course, there are also simple portable spaces without cultivation.Zhou Hang had always thought that the space between him and Sister Lin was like this.
But now that this invisibility talisman suddenly appeared, Zhou Hang's thoughts became lively.
The invisibility symbol should belong to the previous owner of the space.A piece of ordinary talisman paper can become invisible by drawing some ghostly talismans on it. Isn't this mana or something?Therefore, he deduced that the previous owner must have been a monk.I don't know why, or it was ascended, or the soul was scattered, or other reasons, anyway, it is no longer there.
Zhou Hang believes that although he is gone, there must be something left behind.
Maybe there is a method of cultivation.
Waiting for the past, Zhou Hang intends to study the research space carefully, and must discover its maximum value.
This time, the kidnapping of sister Lin deeply stimulated him, and only then did he realize how weak he is.Facing the group of people surnamed Ma, he could only watch Daiyu begging for perfection. This feeling was really aggrieved.
Therefore, he eagerly wants to become stronger.
He had already figured it out, and when he returned to Yangzhou, he confessed to Lin Ruhai.He wants to obtain a legal identity, practice martial arts, and make contributions.He also told sister Lin about this matter.Sister Lin hoped that he would study and take the imperial examination.He knew that she had good intentions, and that if she excelled in learning, she would become an official. In the eyes of the ancients, everything was inferior and only education was high.However, it is too slow to make yourself stronger through this path.
First of all, you have to go to the master to study, and then you have to take the exam for scholar and exam for Jinshi. It will take several years after a lot of tossing.Leaving aside the issue of whether or not you will fail the exam, if you fail the exam once, you will have to wait three years to take the exam again.
It's just a triumphant song all the way, the provincial and provincial examinations have been successfully passed, and it is only a small official of the sixth and seventh ranks, and it will take many years to climb to a high position.
It's better to just join the martial arts and go to the battlefield to fight. If you are lucky, you can make great achievements in three to five years.
No matter what time it is, whoever has the hardest fist speaks the most.
After tossing around for most of the night, the two of them didn't even close their eyes.Just now I didn't feel my nerves were tense all the time outside, but now that I'm in the space, once my tense nerves relax, I don't feel sleepy.So, I freshened up, added some supper, fed the big black cat and ate something, and then went to sleep.
Wake up again, it is time for the sun to rise from the east.
There was no one within a radius of eight feet that could be sensed by the space. It was estimated that Master Ma and the others had already chased them far away, so Daiyu and Zhou Hang came out of the space.Daiyu was wearing men's clothes, a crow-blue robe, black soap boots, and a bamboo hairpin on her head, just like an ordinary scholar's attire.She would like to wear something more low-key, but unfortunately the space is full of brocade clothes, this one is already the most simple and unpretentious one can find.
Zhou Hang wore a black robe, which was also a bamboo hairpin.
The two had a discussion, and when they met someone, they said they were brothers.The elder brother took the younger brother out to play and lost his way.
The air in the woods is very fresh in the morning, and the clear and Yue calls of early birds looking for food echo in the woods.Daiyu let out a long breath and looked at Zhou Hang: "I can't tell the direction, so I have to lead the way."
"Okay, come with me!" Zhou Hang smiled, his eyes were very gentle, and if he looked carefully, it seemed that there was a hint of pampering.
I didn't meet anyone along the way, and as expected, Ma Ye's men had already chased him in the direction of Yangzhou City.
After walking through the continuous small hills, we saw a small village.At the entrance of the village, there are three low square houses made of adobe, supporting a mill and a stove, and a small fur stove is tied to a small courtyard surrounded by fences, where two old grandpas and one grandma grind flour.Zhou Hang went over to ask the way, and asked the old man where he could sell horses.The old man told him that there were no horses in this village, and if he wanted to buy a horse, he had to go to the town and walk five miles north from here.
It took half an hour to walk five miles, and Zhou Hang was afraid that Daiyu would be tired, so he wanted to buy a donkey first.Suffering from no money, he gave him one of Daiyu's pearl earrings.The old man refused to take it, saying that his donkey was worth two taels of silver.
Zhou Hang smiled and said, "This pearl earring is worth several hundred taels."
The old man obviously didn't believe it, he shook his head and led the donkey into the house, as if he was afraid that Zhou Hang and the others would snatch it by force.
Zhou Hang was a little dumbfounded.
After a while, the old man came out, still grinding the flour, and said: "Just such a small bead can be worth hundreds of taels, don't bully us peasants who haven't seen the market. I think when I was young, I would also be in The town has done long-term work for the old men. One of the old men has a young concubine. It is said that she bought it from Yangzhou City. She likes to wear beads, gold and silver jewelry. Her beads are bigger than yours. , it’s only a tael of silver. Don’t fool me!”
Zhou Hang thought to himself, the old man in your town is not a wealthy family, and the beads he bought are probably counterfeit.
But he knew that he couldn't tell the old man clearly for a while.People say that old children are old children. When a person is old, his temper seems to come up. He is stubborn and stubborn. No matter how you explain what he thinks is right, it is useless.Some even rely on the old to sell the old, pretending to be confused on purpose, making you suffer, neither laughing nor laughing, it is better to follow his wishes.
So Zhou Hang said: "You said this is worthless, how about we change it?"
The old man said, "What should I change?"
Zhou Hang said: "Change to a gold one, it can't be that the gold one is worthless."
After speaking, he took out another red gold bracelet, handed it to the old man, and said: "What do you think of this, this is my most valuable thing, if you say no, there is no way!"
The old man stared straight at the eyes.His two gray eyebrows frowned and frowned, and his eyes blinked and blinked, as if he couldn't believe it, and he turned to the old woman, "Come and see, come, this, this is real gold... ..."
The old woman also came up to look at it, her expression was the same as that of the old man's, "Emi Tuofu, how much is such a big piece of gold worth?"
Zhou Hang laughed and said, "It was 100 taels of silver when I bought it back then. If it was normal, you would give me ten donkeys and I wouldn't change it. Who made me unlucky, I took my younger brother out to play together, and I just caught up with the rain fan Now that my younger brother is sick, he has to go to the town to see a doctor, and he can't care too much."
Hearing this, Daiyu quickly put on a weak look.
At this time, the old grandpa and grandma were in a hurry. They had never seen such a valuable thing in their life.What is a donkey, if this bracelet is sold, it won't be worth it = dozens of donkeys, we can't let them run away.
The grandfather hurried to the house and led the donkey out, lest Zhou Hang would regret it.
When the two arrived in the town, they happened to catch up with a market in the town, which was very lively.
Knowing the principle of not revealing their wealth, the two only took an unremarkable golden lock and went to the pawnshop.Became 50 taels of silver.Then I went to the clothes shop and bought two sets of coarse clothes worn by ordinary people.I went to the horse market to pick a horse and spent 40 taels of silver.After some purchases, there are ninety-little silver left, and I plan to keep it for emergency use on the road.
That day, after having a meal in a small restaurant in the town, the two rode on the road.
Taking care that Daiyu is riding a horse for the first time, Zhou Hang's speed is not fast.He could feel that Daiyu's body was always stiff, and he would rather sit in a very uncomfortable position than relax and lean against his arms.Although, he understands Daiyu's thoughts, she was a beautiful woman in ancient times, she was raised strictly since she was a child, and she didn't have many opportunities to talk to men on weekdays, let alone her body is close to her body now.
But he was distressed, no matter riding or sitting on horseback, it was a very strenuous task, even he felt tired, it was impossible for Daiyu not to be tired, but she was so stubborn.
I walked like this for most of the day, only stopping to rest for less than half an hour in the middle.Seeing that the sky was already dark and the sun was setting, there was no way to go to the village or back to the store, so we could only stop in a jungle.Fortunately, they still have room to avoid sleeping in the wilderness.
After tying up the horse, Zhou Hang helped Daiyu off the horse.
Let Daiyu rest against the tree first, and he checks the surrounding situation.
After sitting on horseback all day, Daiyu felt that her bones were falling apart.The inner sides of the two thighs were even more painful. Daiyu guessed that the skin must have been worn out, but she couldn't say anything about that place, she just had to endure it.
The forest was quiet, Daiyu closed her eyes and rested her mind, listening to the sound of Zhou Hang stepping on the leaves gradually going away.Suddenly, she felt something fall on her face, it was cool, and when she looked up, a bird as big as a pheasant was staring at her curiously.Daiyu's intuition is not good, don't let the bird pull on my face.Thinking about it, she reached out and wiped it on her face.There is nothing, so I can rest assured.
It might be the remaining dew, she thought. ,
This forest seemed to be deserted, and there were many weeds growing in it, some of which were tall, and Zhou Hang could no longer see it.While staring at the birds on the tree, Daiyu wondered when Zhou Hang would come back, and if there were no dangerous beasts in the forest.
Just as she was thinking, Zhou Hang suddenly called her.
Daiyu hurriedly agreed: "What's the matter, what's the matter, what do you want me to do?"
I only heard Zhou Hang's voice coming from afar: "Good Yu'er, come here and have a look!"
Daiyu didn't know what was going on, so she hurriedly followed the sound and walked over.Zhou Hang was squatting next to a big tree, and Daiyu only saw the back.There is something in front of him, because it is far away, it is hard to see what it is.Daiyu speeded up while asking what to look at.
When I walked in and took a look, I couldn't help being shocked.
It turned out that there was a person lying on the ground.
Moreover, she has seen this person before.
However, why did this person appear here at this moment, and was seriously injured and unconscious?
"Do you remember him?" Zhou Hang asked.
Daiyu said: "Why don't you remember? Isn't this the old man we met on the streets of the capital when we returned to Yangzhou half a year ago? He even bought candied haws for you."
Zhou Hang said: "So you also remember him."
Daiyu said: "Of course I remember. This gentleman has a noble bearing, and he seems to have been in a high position for a long time, but it's so strange, why he is lying here today, and I don't know who cut him all over his body. "At that time, this man left a good impression on Daiyu.Moreover, at that time on the street, Zhou Hang jumped on him suddenly, and still grabbed his clothes, he was not annoyed, which shows that he is also a magnanimous man.Although Daiyu didn't know who he was, whether he was an official or something else, she intuitively thought that he was not a bad person.
Probably Zhou Hang thought so too, otherwise, with his temperament, he wouldn't care about the life and death of an irrelevant person.
As the saying goes, saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Since Daiyu saw this person, she couldn't bear to ignore him.
Thinking about it, Daiyu took some spiritual spring water from the space, handed it to Zhou Hang, and asked Zhou Hang to feed this person to drink.Daiyu is a girl, so naturally she wouldn't feed another man herself.
Zhou Hang naturally did his part.
Lingquan water can cure all diseases and eliminate all kinds of poisons, even trauma. I believe this person's injuries are no problem.Of course, she didn't dare to take more, but barely covered the bottom of the bowl.It wasn't that she was stingy with the spiritual spring water, but that if she drank too much for this person and the effect was too good, it would be hard to explain for a while.
The man gritted his teeth tightly, Zhou Hang opened his mouth with one hand, and held the bowl with the other, and it took a lot of effort to feed the water.
After about half an hour, the man's eyelids moved slightly.
Daiyu and Zhou Hang glanced at each other.
Wake up soon?
Sure enough, after a while, the man exhaled slightly, and slowly opened his eyes.
"Are you awake?" Daiyu asked, blinking her eyes.
The man had just woken up, and it seemed that he was still not very sober. His eyeballs looked around, and it took a while to gather strength, and he said intermittently: "Yes, you guys saved... me?"
Daiyu laughed and said, "We just gave you some water."
She was right, she didn't do anything, she just fed a bowl of basic water, but the water was different from normal ones.
Zhou Hang couldn't help but be engrossed in seeing Daiyu's delicate appearance after deliberately concealing some of the facts.
Holding Daiyu's hand, Zhou Hang ran quickly, closely following the big black cat that was exploring the way ahead.The whole body of the big black cat is pure black, only four paws are snow white.The moon was hiding behind a mass of dark clouds, and it was almost impossible to see anything in the dark night. Daiyu could only see four small white dots jumping up and down in front of her, which were the four hooves of the big black cat.
There was a light rain two days ago, the ground was not dry yet, the mountain was full of dirt roads, and they took small paths, which were even more muddy and slippery. Daiyu almost slipped several times, but fortunately Zhou Han pulled her, I didn't fall down.
After all, the physical strength of girls cannot be compared with that of men, not to mention that a lady like Daiyu usually rides a sedan chair when she goes out, and lacks exercise.So after running for about a quarter of an hour, Daiyu's legs became weak, and she was too tired to lift her feet, panting heavily.
In the end, even his head was dizzy and he couldn't see the way clearly, so he was dragged away by Zhou Hang almost instinctively.
Running all the way down the mountain, Daiyu leaned against a tree and almost sat on the ground.At this moment, her throat was dry and painful, and her internal organs seemed to be mixed together, rolling in her stomach.Turning his head to Zhou Hang quietly, he also leaned on a tree and panted heavily.The few women who ran out after hearing her words followed. They were quite smart and knew how to run after the big black cat, otherwise they would be caught in those traps even if they wanted to run out.
That's right, if you don't have a bit of intelligence and courage, you don't dare to run away.
Just like the rest of the women, who obviously have the opportunity, but are indifferent and dare not try.I'm afraid that if he fails to escape and is caught, he will be subjected to a more miserable situation.However, it has always been necessary to take risks if you want to accomplish something. People often need to think about what will happen if they succeed. Do they not do it because of the risks?Are you willing to endure the current inhuman treatment just because you are afraid that you may be subjected to more cruel abuse?
A smart person will make the choice that is most beneficial to him.
Just like her now, although she is more certain of escaping than others, it is not without any risk.But you can't just do nothing because of this risk, just let them be at their mercy.It has come to this point, how can it be the worst?
Closer surveillance?
Worse treatment?
How can it be?
They are all controlled by others, how much difference can there be?
The big deal is another battle of wits and courage.There will always be times when they are neglected.
Lin Daiyu and Zhou Hang had already stopped, and the women were still running forward crookedly supporting each other.
On the mountain, they suffered far more rapes than Daiyu, and naturally they were far more afraid of those bandits than Daiyu.When people are under extreme fear, they often burst out with superhuman strength.The only belief these girls have now is to escape and escape from the clutches of the bandits.Therefore, Zhou Hang wouldn't be surprised even if they exploded ten times more stamina and perseverance than this.
They are all miserable people!
Daiyu sighed, but also forced herself to follow.Ma Ye's men are still searching the village, while the bandits are busy fighting the fire, so no one has chased them out yet.But the current situation is definitely not optimistic.After all, if you can't find it on the mountain, Master Ma will soon send someone along the mountain road to look for it.
There is a large forest at the foot of the mountain, the forest is deep and dense, the girls entered the forest without any hesitation.Holding Daiyu's hand, Zhou Hang turned and walked in another direction.Daiyu looked back and pursed her lips. Although there was deep worry in her eyes, she didn't say anything after all, but let Zhou Hang pull herself away.It's not that she doesn't care about the lives of these girls, but that Daiyu can't help them even when she is in danger.She has already brought them down the mountain, as for what happens next, it depends on their fate.
These girls were not originally planned, but under the circumstances at that time, seeing the situation of those women, she could not remain indifferent.
This is not weakness, but a person's conscience.
But no one with a conscience can remain indifferent under such circumstances.
So, then, almost subconsciously, she yelled that sentence.Although she planned to go back early in the morning and tell her father what happened here, and let her go to the court to send people to suppress the bandits and rescue the hostages.But after all, this place is not under the jurisdiction of Yangzhou, and these bandits seem to have some collusion with the government, so it is not impossible that there is no possibility of obedience.What's more, even if the government really sends troops to kill the bandits, those bandits are all desperadoes. If the dog jumps over the wall in a hurry, it is very likely that all the hostages will be burned and all the hostages will be killed.
So, if possible, it's better to escape.
Daiyu showed them a way and also a hope, a hope of regaining their freedom and getting rid of their tragic fate.
She just told them that if they acted, it was possible to escape.She didn't force them to do this, it was up to them whether they dared to take risks.If possible, Daiyu would naturally hope to watch them escape with her own eyes, but since her own safety cannot be guaranteed, she has no choice.After the grain depot caught fire, the bandits must have been busy putting out the fire first, and came down the mountain to catch them who should be Ma Ye's people. Even if there were bandits, they would follow Ma Ye's orders.Their target is themselves, not those girls. If they catch those girls and go back, it would be a waste of manpower. Master Ma probably wouldn't do that.
Therefore, Daiyu is [-]% sure that those girls will not be taken back.
Daiyu was almost exhausted and dragged by Zhou Hang across a low grass.Xia Chan sang "Zhi Zhi", and there were many noisy chirping of various insects and birds.At this moment, Daiyu was not in the mood to listen to the sounds of nature. She supported Zhou Hang's arm vigorously and dressed roughly.
"No, I really can't run anymore."
Zhou Hang was also panting from exhaustion, but at least he was a man, and his physical strength was much stronger than Daiyu's.Although his legs were weak, he could still hold on.Knowing that Daiyu had reached her limit, he felt very distressed.Not far ahead is a hill with lush vegetation, Zhou Hang intends to find a hidden place to rest there first.Seeing that Daiyu was already tired, he knelt down and said, "You come up first, I will carry you on my back."
Daiyu waved her hand to wake her up, and said, "You are tired too, how can I make you carry me on your back?"
While talking, he went to the spiritual spring water from the space, took a bowl for himself, and gave Zhou Hang another bowl.
"Drink it quickly. The water in the space is different from the outside. It has benefits that many medicines don't have. Maybe it can relieve fatigue."
Zhou Hang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he hurriedly took Gululu and drank it.After drinking it, I really feel better, and my legs feel stronger.He hurriedly urged Daiyu to say: "It really works, you should drink some." Seeing that Daiyu had finished drinking a bowl of water, he passed the bowl to Daiyu's hand and asked Daiyu to fill her up again. bowl.
Daiyu and Zhou Hang both drank two bowls of water, and finally felt better.Although I still feel tired, my legs and feet are not as weak as before.Daiyu's eyesight was not good at night. Looking forward, it was pitch black everywhere. Although Zhou Hang is now in human body, it may be affected by the cat's body, and his night vision ability is super strong.While moving his legs and feet, he looked at the hills in the distance, and described to Daiyu how far away he was, how long it would take to cross several small slopes, and how long it would take.
This is the beginning. To return to Yangzhou City, there are still hundreds of miles to go.Zhou Hang wondered where he could find a horse. Wouldn't it be too late to return to Yangzhou with just these two legs?
Thinking about him, she asked Daiyu if she dared to ride a horse.
He didn't ask Daiyu if she could ride a horse, because he knew Daiyu couldn't.
The ladies in ancient times were not as open as the ones in the 21st century. They always stayed out of the door and never walked. They saw a lot of horses and made a lot of carriages. They must have never ridden a horse.Riding a horse looks simple, but it is also a technical job, and it cannot be done on horseback.Horses, especially fine horses, have a temper and arrogance. If you can suppress it, it’s fine. If a person who doesn’t know how to ride a horse sits on it without authorization, it dares to throw him off without hesitation.
Zhou Hang rode a horse for the first time when he was five years old. He sat in the front and his mother escorted him behind.Riding and riding Mom suddenly wanted him to ride by himself, man, he almost fell off the horse.
When they planned their escape route, they also thought about riding down the mountain.The reason why this plan was rejected in the end was that apart from Daiyu’s inability to ride a horse, another important reason was that if he rode down the mountain, he had to use amulets for the horses. There were only four amulets in total, two of which were Used to escape enemy surveillance in chaos.The other two, and the only two remaining, are reserved for emergencies, and cannot be used until a critical moment.
In addition, once the horse is running, the sound of the horse's hooves slapping the ground is easy to detect.
Daiyu obviously thought of this question too.
When I came, I came by carriage, and it took almost two days.To go back or take a carriage, at least it will take two days.In two days, anything can happen.If possible, it is natural to go back as soon as possible.Yangzhou City doesn't know what's going on recently, she is very worried about her father, she was hijacked and disappeared for several days, her father still doesn't know what to worry about now.It's true that her father is a good official who works for the public and the people wholeheartedly, but she couldn't imagine whether her father would compromise if the bad guys used her as a threat.
She can't let her father do something against her principles because of herself, and she won't feel at ease for the rest of her life.
Not wanting to embarrass her father, thinking that her father might not think about food and tea for her own sake, Daiyu wished she could grow wings and fly back to Yangzhou immediately.
"I dare to ride!" Daiyu raised her head, her eyes full of determination.
Zhou Hang didn't expect her to speak so decisively. In the hot and humid summer night, these words were like spring water freshly drawn from a well, exuding bursts of coolness.Sister Lin is not an ordinary weak woman, she is much stronger and braver than he thought.
Zhou Hang felt that his youthful passion had been stimulated.
For a distance of several hundred miles, if you buy a horse, it will take almost a day.Thinking of this, Zhou Hang couldn't help thinking of the scene where he and Lin Daiyu rode together.Except when he was in the cat body, he seemed to have never been so close to sister Lin before.Sister Lin doesn't know how to ride a horse, and he certainly won't let her ride by herself, so he and she can only ride together.At that time, the skirt of the skirt rubbed against the skirt of the skirt, and the body was close to the body. Thinking of this week, Hang hurriedly shook his head to dispel the messy thoughts in his mind.
Zhou Hang, Zhou Hang, what are you thinking about?
Isn't this desecrating sister Lin?
What's more, fleeing for your life is the most important thing now, don't rush to get rid of those irrelevant things from your mind.
At this moment, a row of bright torches rose in the night sky.The stars are scattered, looking from a distance, like bright lights flickering in the dark sky.It was Lord Ma's men who came after him, Daiyu urged Zhou Hang to leave quickly, and calculated how long the invisibility talisman on him would last.Zhou Hang's was used earlier than Daiyu's, with only a quarter of an hour of invisibility left, while Daiyu had half an hour left.Those torches moved very fast, it seemed that those people were not on foot, but on horseback.
The foot strength of a horse is not on the same level as that of a human, and it will be a matter of time before they are caught up.But now the effectiveness of the invisibility charms on the two of them has not been exhausted. When these people catch up after a while, they can just find a place where they are not easy to crash.When the time of the invisibility talisman runs out, these people should chase them to a farther place. Even if they don't, they can go into the space to hide, and come out when someone walks away.
The row of flames quickly moved from the mountainside to the foot of the mountain. Daiyu looked at it from a distance and estimated the number, there were about thirty or forty people.At the foot of the mountain, they were dispersed and divided into three parts.Some go forward, some go left, and some go right.
The one to the right, that is, the direction of Zhou Hang and Daiyu has the most people.
It may also be because the right side is the north, and Yangzhou City is on the north side.
This was a situation that had already been expected, although after knowing that they were missing, this group of people would definitely chase after them in the direction of Yangzhou, Daiyu and Zhou Hang couldn't stop going to Yangzhou City because of this.As for why they didn't deliberately choose a direction other than Yangzhou City, it wasn't that they didn't think of it, but that it wasn't necessary.
They have aura in their hands, invisibility charms, space, with these, as long as they don't want to be caught, those people can't even try to find them even if they dig three feet, so why bother.
When she was in Yingmei Temple, Daiyu didn't want to be exposed, so she followed their way.
As for later, when he woke up in a strange carriage and didn't know Zhou Hang's situation, he had to make false claims with them.It was so easy for them to return Zhou Hang to him, but Zhou Hang was seriously injured and unable to transform, and he was closely monitored by them, and he never found a chance.
Now that Daiyu and Zhou Hang have taken precautions, they will not succeed so easily.
There are about 20 people to the right.There was nothing to hide on the grass, and soon, they searched the hill where Daiyu and Zhou Hang were.The leader was Ma Ye. When they arrived in the woods, they dismounted and searched every place carefully, even tree holes and treetops.
Daiyu and Zhou Hang didn't dare to run anymore, they leaned side by side on a thick tree trunk, not daring to move, not even daring to breathe loudly.The big black cat had already been taken into the space by Lin Daiyu.Most of these people are martial arts practitioners with very keen senses. As long as there is a little movement, there is a danger of being discovered.
Although they searched very carefully, it was impossible to touch every tree, so Daiyu and Zhou Hang were not found.
Daiyu counted the time, Zhou Hang's invisibility talisman should soon expire.Maybe there is still half an hour, she is not sure, in short, it will not be too long.Instead of waiting until the invisibility talisman fails and rushing into the space, it is better to go in early.
Stretching out her finger to poke Zhou Hang's shoulder, Daiyu indicated with her eyes whether she wants to enter the space now.
Zhou Hang shook his head, meaning there is still some time, so wait and see.
About a minute or two later, there was a sound of horseshoes from a distance, and two people came over.The two men galloped up to Lord Ma, dismounted and saluted, and said: "I want to report to Lord Ma, six women were found in the forest to the south, two women, four girls, and there is no Miss Lin we are looking for." .”
Lin Daiyu didn't know what Master Ma's expression was, she only heard his voice was a little angry and impatient.
"Really not, do you see the truth?"
The man said: "The subordinates have checked one by one, there really are none! The subordinates have already asked those women, and they said that they were the only ones who escaped, and there was no one surnamed Lin. By the way, one of the women said that they heard A girl's voice told them to go west and they could escape, so they dared to run out."
Master Ma let out an "oh" and asked, "What kind of girl can she say?"
The subordinate said: "She said that it was too dark, she didn't see anyone, she only saw voices, and there was a big black cat leading the way. When they walked to the foot of the mountain, they entered the forest in the south, and the big black cat disappeared. Cat. Said it might have gone north."
"That's right!" Master Ma ordered the subordinates to go down and call people from the other two places, and said to everyone in the forest: "All listen to my order!" Then he called seven or eight people by name and ordered them to come out. Lin Zi searched northward, especially the road to Yangzhou, and he had to pay great attention to both major roads and small roads.He himself led the rest of the people to search in the woods.
Daiyu guessed that the person surnamed Ma felt that she hadn't run out of the woods yet. After all, if she only relied on two legs, unless she was a hero who jumped over the roof and wall in the storybook, most people didn't have such good foot strength.
Hearing what that person said just now, Daiyu felt relieved.Master Ma was mainly catching himself, and those women were out of their consideration.Judging from the man's words, they didn't seem to embarrass the women either.
Just as she was thinking, Daiyu suddenly felt a bright light in front of her eyes, and she suddenly entered the light from the darkness, and she couldn't help squinting her eyes as the light stimulated her.
Daiyu snorted and said, "Why didn't you know me before you entered the space?"
"Well, it's time for the invisibility talisman!" Seeing Daiyu pouted and frowning, Zhou Hang couldn't help but smile.It seems that her arrival has changed Sister Lin's character.Now Sister Lin is no longer an orphan girl dependent on others. With her own company and Father Lin's love, she is no longer the sentimental character she was before. On the contrary, she is a bit sweet and naive, which sounds cute.
Of course, this doesn't mean that Sister Lin has no self-cultivation. Her cuteness is just in front of Father Lin and him. She is still very knowledgeable and reasonable in front of outsiders, and her behavior is commendable.
As soon as Zhou Hang's words fell, the invisibility talisman attached to his body instantly turned into a flame and disappeared without a trace.
It's really stealth time!
The design of this invisibility symbol is quite fun.When it was first pasted, it was an ordinary talisman paper, but when the time passed, it started to feel slightly hot, reminding people to arrange their time reasonably.When the last quarter of an hour is left, the countdown begins. First, a glowing red light is emitted from the bottom. Of course, this red light can only be seen by those who have used the invisibility talisman.The red light was just a line at first, and gradually widened. When the entire talisman paper glowed red, it was the time when the invisibility time was exhausted and the invisibility talisman was about to fail.
Daiyu is not an unreasonable person. In such an emergency situation, she would advance the space and explain later.Because if it is too late to enter the space, and it happens to be discovered by Master Ma's people, it will be a big trouble.
Space comes out wherever it enters.
In the space, you can sense the situation in a radius of eight feet around the outside world, and it can't be farther away.
It is estimated that Ma Ye and the others will not leave for a while, so Zhou Hang and Daiyu can't easily leave the space for a while,
Although Daiyu's invisibility talisman still has a lot of time, it is useless in space.The invisibility talisman is for one-time use, and Daiyu couldn't help but sigh, "It's a pity."
Zhou Hang said: "What a pity, it has already played its role, didn't it help us escape, what's the pity?"
After hearing this, Daiyu thought it made sense, so she couldn't help laughing and said, "I'm pedantic."
Although Zhou Hang didn't read novels very much in his previous life, he heard his relatives' cousin nagging a lot about the portable space.Cousin is a fan of novels. Although her family also runs several companies and is very wealthy, she always fantasizes that one day she will be reborn into a court marquis or a wealthy family, hold a portable space, and start a wonderful life of upgrading and fighting monsters.
In the past, Zhou Hang was most afraid of seeing her, because they were the only relatives of the same age.
The elders don't listen to her nonsensical nagging, so she always comes to bother him.
The few knowledge of time travel, rebirth, and portable space in Zhou Hang's mind is thanks to his cousin.
Zhou Hang didn't believe that there was such a thing as portable space in this world before. Of course, he also didn't believe in rebirth and time travel.But now, the facts are in front of you, and you have to believe it if you don’t believe it.Portable space is often tied to self-cultivation. Think about it, you already have such a magic weapon that produces your own spiritual energy and self-produced spiritual spring. Wouldn’t it be a pity if you don’t cultivate yourself?Of course, there are also simple portable spaces without cultivation.Zhou Hang had always thought that the space between him and Sister Lin was like this.
But now that this invisibility talisman suddenly appeared, Zhou Hang's thoughts became lively.
The invisibility symbol should belong to the previous owner of the space.A piece of ordinary talisman paper can become invisible by drawing some ghostly talismans on it. Isn't this mana or something?Therefore, he deduced that the previous owner must have been a monk.I don't know why, or it was ascended, or the soul was scattered, or other reasons, anyway, it is no longer there.
Zhou Hang believes that although he is gone, there must be something left behind.
Maybe there is a method of cultivation.
Waiting for the past, Zhou Hang intends to study the research space carefully, and must discover its maximum value.
This time, the kidnapping of sister Lin deeply stimulated him, and only then did he realize how weak he is.Facing the group of people surnamed Ma, he could only watch Daiyu begging for perfection. This feeling was really aggrieved.
Therefore, he eagerly wants to become stronger.
He had already figured it out, and when he returned to Yangzhou, he confessed to Lin Ruhai.He wants to obtain a legal identity, practice martial arts, and make contributions.He also told sister Lin about this matter.Sister Lin hoped that he would study and take the imperial examination.He knew that she had good intentions, and that if she excelled in learning, she would become an official. In the eyes of the ancients, everything was inferior and only education was high.However, it is too slow to make yourself stronger through this path.
First of all, you have to go to the master to study, and then you have to take the exam for scholar and exam for Jinshi. It will take several years after a lot of tossing.Leaving aside the issue of whether or not you will fail the exam, if you fail the exam once, you will have to wait three years to take the exam again.
It's just a triumphant song all the way, the provincial and provincial examinations have been successfully passed, and it is only a small official of the sixth and seventh ranks, and it will take many years to climb to a high position.
It's better to just join the martial arts and go to the battlefield to fight. If you are lucky, you can make great achievements in three to five years.
No matter what time it is, whoever has the hardest fist speaks the most.
After tossing around for most of the night, the two of them didn't even close their eyes.Just now I didn't feel my nerves were tense all the time outside, but now that I'm in the space, once my tense nerves relax, I don't feel sleepy.So, I freshened up, added some supper, fed the big black cat and ate something, and then went to sleep.
Wake up again, it is time for the sun to rise from the east.
There was no one within a radius of eight feet that could be sensed by the space. It was estimated that Master Ma and the others had already chased them far away, so Daiyu and Zhou Hang came out of the space.Daiyu was wearing men's clothes, a crow-blue robe, black soap boots, and a bamboo hairpin on her head, just like an ordinary scholar's attire.She would like to wear something more low-key, but unfortunately the space is full of brocade clothes, this one is already the most simple and unpretentious one can find.
Zhou Hang wore a black robe, which was also a bamboo hairpin.
The two had a discussion, and when they met someone, they said they were brothers.The elder brother took the younger brother out to play and lost his way.
The air in the woods is very fresh in the morning, and the clear and Yue calls of early birds looking for food echo in the woods.Daiyu let out a long breath and looked at Zhou Hang: "I can't tell the direction, so I have to lead the way."
"Okay, come with me!" Zhou Hang smiled, his eyes were very gentle, and if he looked carefully, it seemed that there was a hint of pampering.
I didn't meet anyone along the way, and as expected, Ma Ye's men had already chased him in the direction of Yangzhou City.
After walking through the continuous small hills, we saw a small village.At the entrance of the village, there are three low square houses made of adobe, supporting a mill and a stove, and a small fur stove is tied to a small courtyard surrounded by fences, where two old grandpas and one grandma grind flour.Zhou Hang went over to ask the way, and asked the old man where he could sell horses.The old man told him that there were no horses in this village, and if he wanted to buy a horse, he had to go to the town and walk five miles north from here.
It took half an hour to walk five miles, and Zhou Hang was afraid that Daiyu would be tired, so he wanted to buy a donkey first.Suffering from no money, he gave him one of Daiyu's pearl earrings.The old man refused to take it, saying that his donkey was worth two taels of silver.
Zhou Hang smiled and said, "This pearl earring is worth several hundred taels."
The old man obviously didn't believe it, he shook his head and led the donkey into the house, as if he was afraid that Zhou Hang and the others would snatch it by force.
Zhou Hang was a little dumbfounded.
After a while, the old man came out, still grinding the flour, and said: "Just such a small bead can be worth hundreds of taels, don't bully us peasants who haven't seen the market. I think when I was young, I would also be in The town has done long-term work for the old men. One of the old men has a young concubine. It is said that she bought it from Yangzhou City. She likes to wear beads, gold and silver jewelry. Her beads are bigger than yours. , it’s only a tael of silver. Don’t fool me!”
Zhou Hang thought to himself, the old man in your town is not a wealthy family, and the beads he bought are probably counterfeit.
But he knew that he couldn't tell the old man clearly for a while.People say that old children are old children. When a person is old, his temper seems to come up. He is stubborn and stubborn. No matter how you explain what he thinks is right, it is useless.Some even rely on the old to sell the old, pretending to be confused on purpose, making you suffer, neither laughing nor laughing, it is better to follow his wishes.
So Zhou Hang said: "You said this is worthless, how about we change it?"
The old man said, "What should I change?"
Zhou Hang said: "Change to a gold one, it can't be that the gold one is worthless."
After speaking, he took out another red gold bracelet, handed it to the old man, and said: "What do you think of this, this is my most valuable thing, if you say no, there is no way!"
The old man stared straight at the eyes.His two gray eyebrows frowned and frowned, and his eyes blinked and blinked, as if he couldn't believe it, and he turned to the old woman, "Come and see, come, this, this is real gold... ..."
The old woman also came up to look at it, her expression was the same as that of the old man's, "Emi Tuofu, how much is such a big piece of gold worth?"
Zhou Hang laughed and said, "It was 100 taels of silver when I bought it back then. If it was normal, you would give me ten donkeys and I wouldn't change it. Who made me unlucky, I took my younger brother out to play together, and I just caught up with the rain fan Now that my younger brother is sick, he has to go to the town to see a doctor, and he can't care too much."
Hearing this, Daiyu quickly put on a weak look.
At this time, the old grandpa and grandma were in a hurry. They had never seen such a valuable thing in their life.What is a donkey, if this bracelet is sold, it won't be worth it = dozens of donkeys, we can't let them run away.
The grandfather hurried to the house and led the donkey out, lest Zhou Hang would regret it.
When the two arrived in the town, they happened to catch up with a market in the town, which was very lively.
Knowing the principle of not revealing their wealth, the two only took an unremarkable golden lock and went to the pawnshop.Became 50 taels of silver.Then I went to the clothes shop and bought two sets of coarse clothes worn by ordinary people.I went to the horse market to pick a horse and spent 40 taels of silver.After some purchases, there are ninety-little silver left, and I plan to keep it for emergency use on the road.
That day, after having a meal in a small restaurant in the town, the two rode on the road.
Taking care that Daiyu is riding a horse for the first time, Zhou Hang's speed is not fast.He could feel that Daiyu's body was always stiff, and he would rather sit in a very uncomfortable position than relax and lean against his arms.Although, he understands Daiyu's thoughts, she was a beautiful woman in ancient times, she was raised strictly since she was a child, and she didn't have many opportunities to talk to men on weekdays, let alone her body is close to her body now.
But he was distressed, no matter riding or sitting on horseback, it was a very strenuous task, even he felt tired, it was impossible for Daiyu not to be tired, but she was so stubborn.
I walked like this for most of the day, only stopping to rest for less than half an hour in the middle.Seeing that the sky was already dark and the sun was setting, there was no way to go to the village or back to the store, so we could only stop in a jungle.Fortunately, they still have room to avoid sleeping in the wilderness.
After tying up the horse, Zhou Hang helped Daiyu off the horse.
Let Daiyu rest against the tree first, and he checks the surrounding situation.
After sitting on horseback all day, Daiyu felt that her bones were falling apart.The inner sides of the two thighs were even more painful. Daiyu guessed that the skin must have been worn out, but she couldn't say anything about that place, she just had to endure it.
The forest was quiet, Daiyu closed her eyes and rested her mind, listening to the sound of Zhou Hang stepping on the leaves gradually going away.Suddenly, she felt something fall on her face, it was cool, and when she looked up, a bird as big as a pheasant was staring at her curiously.Daiyu's intuition is not good, don't let the bird pull on my face.Thinking about it, she reached out and wiped it on her face.There is nothing, so I can rest assured.
It might be the remaining dew, she thought. ,
This forest seemed to be deserted, and there were many weeds growing in it, some of which were tall, and Zhou Hang could no longer see it.While staring at the birds on the tree, Daiyu wondered when Zhou Hang would come back, and if there were no dangerous beasts in the forest.
Just as she was thinking, Zhou Hang suddenly called her.
Daiyu hurriedly agreed: "What's the matter, what's the matter, what do you want me to do?"
I only heard Zhou Hang's voice coming from afar: "Good Yu'er, come here and have a look!"
Daiyu didn't know what was going on, so she hurriedly followed the sound and walked over.Zhou Hang was squatting next to a big tree, and Daiyu only saw the back.There is something in front of him, because it is far away, it is hard to see what it is.Daiyu speeded up while asking what to look at.
When I walked in and took a look, I couldn't help being shocked.
It turned out that there was a person lying on the ground.
Moreover, she has seen this person before.
However, why did this person appear here at this moment, and was seriously injured and unconscious?
"Do you remember him?" Zhou Hang asked.
Daiyu said: "Why don't you remember? Isn't this the old man we met on the streets of the capital when we returned to Yangzhou half a year ago? He even bought candied haws for you."
Zhou Hang said: "So you also remember him."
Daiyu said: "Of course I remember. This gentleman has a noble bearing, and he seems to have been in a high position for a long time, but it's so strange, why he is lying here today, and I don't know who cut him all over his body. "At that time, this man left a good impression on Daiyu.Moreover, at that time on the street, Zhou Hang jumped on him suddenly, and still grabbed his clothes, he was not annoyed, which shows that he is also a magnanimous man.Although Daiyu didn't know who he was, whether he was an official or something else, she intuitively thought that he was not a bad person.
Probably Zhou Hang thought so too, otherwise, with his temperament, he wouldn't care about the life and death of an irrelevant person.
As the saying goes, saving someone's life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. Since Daiyu saw this person, she couldn't bear to ignore him.
Thinking about it, Daiyu took some spiritual spring water from the space, handed it to Zhou Hang, and asked Zhou Hang to feed this person to drink.Daiyu is a girl, so naturally she wouldn't feed another man herself.
Zhou Hang naturally did his part.
Lingquan water can cure all diseases and eliminate all kinds of poisons, even trauma. I believe this person's injuries are no problem.Of course, she didn't dare to take more, but barely covered the bottom of the bowl.It wasn't that she was stingy with the spiritual spring water, but that if she drank too much for this person and the effect was too good, it would be hard to explain for a while.
The man gritted his teeth tightly, Zhou Hang opened his mouth with one hand, and held the bowl with the other, and it took a lot of effort to feed the water.
After about half an hour, the man's eyelids moved slightly.
Daiyu and Zhou Hang glanced at each other.
Wake up soon?
Sure enough, after a while, the man exhaled slightly, and slowly opened his eyes.
"Are you awake?" Daiyu asked, blinking her eyes.
The man had just woken up, and it seemed that he was still not very sober. His eyeballs looked around, and it took a while to gather strength, and he said intermittently: "Yes, you guys saved... me?"
Daiyu laughed and said, "We just gave you some water."
She was right, she didn't do anything, she just fed a bowl of basic water, but the water was different from normal ones.
Zhou Hang couldn't help but be engrossed in seeing Daiyu's delicate appearance after deliberately concealing some of the facts.
