Yin Ling's disappearance was only discovered the next morning.
The second time there was an incident in which a disciple of the Artemisia Mountain Sect left the door without permission. This time, there was finally a last eyewitness - the last person to see Yin Ling happened to be the girl who often followed her. According to her, Yin Ling was in a depressed mood at that time, so she planned to go to Yanshan in the evening. She also asked Yin Ling if she needed to accompany her, but Yin Ling refused. Looking at Yin Ling's appearance at that time, he should have gone and returned, so he didn't care.
And because Yin Ling has a cold and arrogant personality on weekdays, she rarely communicates too much with her peers, so the disciples who live in the same courtyard as her don't have much in-depth communication with her, and they don't know anything about her not returning all night.
It wasn't until the next day that everyone realized that Yin Ling, who said he would go and go back, actually disappeared for a night!
After learning about this, Mei Yanzhi's expression never cleared. Obviously, he thought that Yin Ling's disappearance was related to the few heavy words he had said yesterday morning, and he was quite remorseful at this time.
Although, since the decline of the Mei family and the Yin family's tough dissolution of the marriage contract made by the two as children, the two families have gradually stopped contacting. He has long been less mindful of marriage. But in the face of the girl who might have been his wife, he did not want her to be in danger in any case—especially since it might have been fueled by a few of his heavy words.
Yu Yiqing sighed and patted him on the shoulder, comforting: "Don't worry, Senior Sister Yin Ling is the best among the female disciples of our sect, ordinary dangers will not hurt her, maybe she was just delayed by something." Let's search the mountains as soon as possible. ”
Qin Bai opened his mouth and said, "Are we still searching in Yanshan?" At this time, he was already a half-grown teenager, and his stature was much taller than before, and his voice was a little hoarse in the voice change period. When he said this, his eyes unexpectedly looked at Mei Yanzhi, and subconsciously turned to He Jianshuang, who was younger than his own generation.
"Not necessarily, this time I'm afraid we'll have to move the area west. He Jianshuang said lightly: "Some time ago, I heard that the town in the west is not very peaceful, and in the past half a month, there have been girls who have disappeared from time to time. Moreover, this wave of disappearances has a tendency to spread to Yanshan, and I am afraid that it is the gang's doing. ”
Everyone's faces changed in unison. Mei Yanzhi said strictly: "Is there really such a thing?"
He Jianshuang raised his eyelids and said lightly, "It's just my speculation." ”
Yan Ling's expression also became solemn.
In this era, there were indeed gangs that sold beautiful boys and girls between the Western Regions and the Central Plains, most of which were achieved by abduction, persecution, or even buyout. Everywhere you go, you collect a batch of "new goods" and you leave. I can also think with my toes, the other party will definitely not dare to run directly to the Artemisia Mountain faction to rob people - nonsense, isn't that the rhythm of looking for death?
But what if the object is changed to a girl walking alone in Yanshan at night?
Yin Ling's martial arts are indeed very good, but after all, she is also a girl's family, and just because she knows martial arts, she can't completely veto the possibility of her encountering danger. The probability of this thing is indeed not large, but if it really falls on her, then the probability becomes 100%.
-- She thinks that people will think of these things too.
Mei Yanzhi said coldly: "Just follow what you said, search to the west." ”
……
…………
The above is the last memory of Yanling, who woke up in a dizziness, about this incident. [Candle]
She slowly opened her eyes, and realized that her mouth had been gagged with paper, and her hands were tied behind her back and her ankles. The legs were also tightly tied with ropes, and they went around at least twenty times, and they were tied like mummies.
Yan Ling: "......"
He and Artemisia Mountain sent everyone into the mountain to search, Ben and He Jianshuang have been staying together, but when they walked somewhere, they suddenly separated, and when she wanted to go back to find He Jianshuang, she felt a tingling pain in her neck, and then she fell unconscious. Now that her hands were tied, she couldn't touch the wound on the back of her neck, but she thought that it should be some hidden weapon stained with anesthetic. No wonder Yin Ling was put down—it was indeed impossible to prevent.
Yan Ling lay on her side on the ground like a dead dog, and looked around, this should be a wooden house in the mountains, there is no light in the house, it should be late at night. In the corner of the wall not far away, leaning on a girl who was tied up by five flowers, it was not Yin Ling or anyone. I saw that her eyes were wide open, bursting with sparks of anger, and she was constantly trying to break free from the rope.
Seeing that Yanling had finally woken up, Yin Ling whined and motioned for her to come over and help untie the rope.
Yanling thought for a while, stuck out her tongue hard, and pushed out the paper in her mouth. Sure enough, TV series are all lies, how can it be plugged in people's mouths like this.
Yin Ling: "......" She choked for a while, then drew a gourd in the same way and spit out the paper ball in her mouth.
The two of them spoke at the same time, "Why are you here?"
After some conversation, I realized that everyone was invited by the secret weapon. These people are probably the gang of traffickers that He Jianshuang said. Yin Ling has been brought here for a day and a night, and he has been trapped alone. Yanling has also been here for half a night. According to what Yin Ling heard, there were more than a dozen girls in the hands of this gang, and they would leave here before dawn tomorrow. And Yin Ling didn't know where he was now.
After learning this, Yan Ling was not so afraid, she couldn't leave the Yanshan Territory, so these traffickers should still be hiding in the Yanshan Mountain Range, and they would not be far from the Artemisia Mountain Sect. It's just that it's hard to say clearly, so I can only sue Yin Ling, these people haven't left Yanshan yet.
Yan Ling pushed the tip of her tongue against her sore mouth and whispered, "Why were you tied up alone?"
Yin Ling said hatefully: "I kicked and injured the deputy leader of this gang, and they looked at me alone...... Stop talking nonsense, since you're awake, come and help me untie the rope. ”
Yan Ling moved her hand, the rope was so thick and tightly tied that it couldn't be loosened at all. Otherwise, Yin Ling wouldn't have been able to unravel it for so long.
In fact, to untie the rope, you can make the rope loose by transforming. But Yin Ling is here, and he can't change rashly...... That said, it's a tricky situation.
If something could be used to burn the rope...... Yan Ling's heart moved, closed her eyes, and slowly urged Neidan's energy. She hadn't tried to do this, only the feeling of heat at the ends of her limbs when she had transformed. She's going to get that feeling back now.
Feeling the wrists of both hands heating up, Yanling squeezed hard at a certain point, and soon the filaments of the rope on the inside of the wrist bounced out and hit the skin. Looks like this will work!
Over there, Yin Ling saw that Yanling not only thought of a way together, but actually closed her eyes and slept in front of her, almost being angry.
Yanling didn't have as many empty tubes, and while she was scalding the rope, she pulled the gap in the rope wider and wider.
Yin Ling moved for a while, he was really weak, leaned against the corner of the wall and looked at Yanling for a while, and suddenly said in a cold voice: "Why are you also arrested?"
Yanling opened her eyes: "We are searching the mountains and looking for you everywhere." After a pause, she added, "You don't have to worry too much, Senior Brother, they will definitely find us." ”
At the mention of this name, a little loss and grief flashed in Yin Ling's eyes: "He...... He wants me to disappear!"
Yesterday, in front of the matchmaker, Mei Yanzhi said this: "Since the other party is so sincere, you might as well go and meet." I think that's a good thing. ”
If there was the slightest hint of struggle or jealousy in his expression, she wouldn't have run away in a bad mood. However, Mei Yanzhi's expression was calm and calm. At that time, she knew that the marriage contract that the two had once had stored could never be restored.
and Yin Ling didn't have a deep relationship, Yan Ling only raised her eyebrows when she heard this, she didn't plan to make a shallow and deep word, and she was a confidant sister, so she said lazily: "It doesn't matter, there is no grass at the end of the world, why bother to love a flower, if you don't have a heart, I will leave." You're still young, you'll find a better one. ”
Yin Ling's face darkened: "Why do you speak in a tone like an old lady." ”
Yanling couldn't help but laugh. At this moment, she suddenly found that this Yin Ling, who had always been cold to everyone, seemed to be a girl with a somewhat cute personality.
Chatting is the best way to pass the time, and finally, with Yan Ling's unremitting efforts, a slight "sting" sounded, and her tightly bound wrists were relaxed, and the broken rope fell to the ground.
Yan Ling didn't feel much about the temperature of her hands. However, if someone came to touch her hand at this time, she would immediately feel an unbearable burning sensation.
Her hands were free, and under Yin Ling's shocked gaze, Yanling quickly and softly moved behind her and began to untie her rope. The knot was tied very tightly, and Yan Ling planned to repeat the old trick and began to gather heat. Unexpectedly, Yin Ling was so hot that he exclaimed: "What are you doing, it's so hot!"
Yan Ling retracted her hand and said calmly: "I'm untying the rope for you." ”
Yin Ling: "Why is it so hot?"
Yan Ling: "Haven't you heard of friction and heat?"
Yin Ling: "......"
This hot method is not done, and can only be solved by physical methods. Yanling began to use her fingernails to pinch the knots, but halfway through the unraveling, she keenly heard someone coming this way, and hurriedly retreated to her original position.
Yanling kicked the rope she had just untied behind a pile of debris in the corner. Yin Ling was also very alert, and the two quickly made the action that was originally tied.
There was indeed someone at the door, and the man opened a small window on the door, and was a little surprised to see that the two people in the room were still fine, but they woke up. Then I thought that one of the people inside had kicked the deputy leader, and I immediately became vigilant. Soon, there were
