Chapter 2 Escape from Danger

Qingcheng's injury gradually healed, and after the injury was healed, she returned to the study to study with the old master. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although she was extremely reluctant, she shuddered from her father's whip. In the past few months, there has been nothing to do in the military camp, and Sima Nan has been at home almost every day to ask Qingcheng about his homework. Qingcheng trembled every day, afraid that he would make a slight mistake in his recitation and let his father catch him.

However, although Sima Nan was not too satisfied with Qingcheng's performance, after thinking about it, it was really not beneficial for his daughter's family to read so many books, so some places passed so-so.

In mid-October, the imperial court Xuan Sima Nan went to Jinling to arrange military affairs. Sima Nan didn't dare to slack off, and took his eldest son Sima Xing to Jinling overnight.

After his father left, Qingcheng was amnesty, and he was no longer as active in studying as before. Either I slept in class or ran out to play. The old master saw it in his eyes and was angry in his heart, but the master was not there, no one could care about this naughty student, he only had to be angry.

Qingcheng is like a bird released from a cage, either flying into the garden or landing in the market all day long. Seeing that the New Year is approaching, every household goes out to do New Year's goods, and the streets are crowded, so it is not lively. Sister-in-law Gui was instructed by Mrs. Sima to go to the street to buy New Year's goods, Qingcheng salivated and begged for a long time, and Sister-in-law Gui couldn't take it out secretly.

Qingcheng has a wild nature, and this time out of Sima Mansion, it is like a fish returning to the sea, scurrying around. Sister-in-law Gui was in a hurry, but she didn't run as fast as Qingcheng, so she had to call the little guys in the house to follow closely.

Who knows, there are too many people on the street, and none of the little guys are paying attention, so Qingcheng can't be found in the crowd. The little guy saw that the big thing was not good, and poured into the crowd to look for it, but there was not even a shadow. At this time, he was in a hurry, and hurriedly turned around and told Sister-in-law Gui about Qingcheng's disappearance.

When Sister-in-law Gui heard this, her eyes were dizzy, her feet staggered, and someone next to her held on in time to prevent her from falling.

"You no-eye bastard! Don't go to the central people anymore to look for it, if something happens to the young lady, I see that your head is still not on the cavity. Sister-in-law Gui scolded.

The little girl's face turned white in a hurry, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he hurriedly turned around and went to the people in the house to look for him. Sister-in-law Gui didn't care much, so she left her things, pushed away the crowd, and looked for them along the street.

When the housekeeper heard that he had lost the young lady, he hurriedly returned to his wife and took a few more people to find him. Mrs. Sima was in the Buddhist hall at the time, and when she heard the news of her daughter's disappearance, it was like a bolt from the blue, and she suddenly fell into the chair. She never cared about this eccentric daughter, but every time Qingcheng was able to evoke her maternal love in such an unexpected way.

She stood up, and while calling someone to summon her youngest son Sima Jian in the military camp, she turned over and knelt in front of the Buddha statue and begged bitterly, hoping that nothing would happen to her daughter.

It was almost dark before Sima Jian rushed home. When he heard that his sister was lost, he had already led people to look for him along the street, but he didn't even hear a single message. He panicked, afraid that he had encountered a kidnapper, so he hurried to the yamen to report the case. When the yamen saw that he had some trouble, he immediately sent people to look for him, but he has not been found yet. He was afraid that his mother would worry, so he appeased him first.

Mrs. Sima sat in the brightly lit nunnery, chanting Buddha in her mouth, hoping to find Qingcheng as soon as possible. Hearing the sound of footsteps in the courtyard, she thought she had found it, and hurriedly greeted her. But his son Sima Jian told him that Qingcheng still had no whereabouts, and he had already reported to the official.

"That's so good! It's so dark, if she encounters human traffickers, won't it be over? Oh, my son! Why don't you worry about your mother so much! Mrs. Sima cried and cried, and fell on her son's shoulder and sobbed.

Sima Jian comforted his mother and turned around to look for him.

The cold moon quietly climbed onto the roof, and Qingcheng sat in the rotten grass and looked at the bright moon, with mixed feelings in his heart.

She was playful for a while, and when she saw someone playing monkey, she followed. Who knows, after the monkey play dispersed, she turned around and found that Sister-in-law Gui and the little girl were gone. Although she was bold, it was getting dark at this time, and there was no half a figure on the street, and she couldn't help but be afraid. She quickly turned around to look for it, but the monkey man was wandering around, and she didn't know where she was.

Qingcheng was anxious in his heart, choked back tears, and walked forward while crying. At this moment, a person came out of the alley, and the man walked in a hurry and bumped into her.

"Hey! I said you don't have long eyes... When the man saw that the other party was a little girl about eight or nine years old, he stopped.

"Whose child are you? If you don't go home, what are you hitting here? The man asked, seeing her with tears in his eyes.

"Do you know how to get to Sima Mansion?" Qingcheng choked.

Also, Qingcheng was unlucky, that person happened to be a crutch, and when he saw that she was a little girl, she lost her way again, and immediately moved her brain.

The man's round eyes flickered, and he smiled: "Little girl, I think you are lost." Your family lives in Sima Mansion, right? I'm just going there, why don't you come with me? ”

A child in Qingcheng, who didn't have much thought, thought that he had met a good person, wiped his tears, and followed the man.

After walking for about half an hour, I saw that it was getting darker and darker, and the road did not seem to be the way I came. Qingcheng was a clever person, and she felt more and more that something was wrong, so she lied to the man and hurriedly ran forward. Seeing that the matter was revealed, the man chased after him in two or three steps, covered Qingcheng's mouth, and carried it away with a drag.

Qingcheng felt tired after running for a long time, and the man covered her mouth again, and she fell asleep dizzily. When I woke up, I found myself lying on a pile of rotten grass with a girl sleeping next to me. The girl was dressed in green, plainly dressed, and did not look like a child of a rich family.

Qingcheng was at a loss for a moment, knowing that he had met a villain. When he saw the door, he went over and called for help. But no one answered after knocking for a long time, and then a crisp voice suddenly sounded behind her: "Don't knock, that crutch has drunk and may have gone to bed early." ”

When Qingcheng turned around, he saw that the girl in green was looking at her with big black eyes.

"Who are you? How is it here? Are you in league with them? Qingcheng approached the girl and asked.

The girl shook her head, "I was abducted just like you." ”

"And where do you live?" Qingcheng sat beside the girl and looked at her sympathetically.

"I don't know."

"And what's your name?"

"Dance!" The girl whispered.

Qingcheng sighed, stretched his legs, and suddenly said, "My name is Qingcheng!" How did you get kidnapped? Who are they? What will it do with us? ”

The girl glanced at her and said, "My father and mother and I went to Jinling to look for relatives, and I encountered a robber on the way, and my father and mother told me to run quickly." I ran and got lost, and I couldn't find them when I looked back. Later, a kind aunt came over and brought me here. The lady was very kind to me, but her family couldn't afford to support me, so she sold me to a kidnapper. ”

After the girl finished speaking, she saw Qingcheng staring at the window without speaking, and continued: "There are three of them. You were asleep just now, and I heard them say that they are going to sell us to some fireworks pavilion. ”

Although Qingcheng didn't know what the fireworks pavilion was, he heard that it was going to be sold, and the coolness crawled all over his body.

She got up and walked to the window, stared at the ledge that was one person tall, and suddenly asked, "Wu'er, do you want to go out?" ”

Wu'er nodded, and followed her gaze to the windowsill. Qingcheng pulled Wu'er up, patted his thin shoulder, and said, "Step on me, climb up." ”

Wu'er didn't seem to understand, and looked at Qingcheng in a daze.

"Hurry up." Qingcheng squatted lower, "Don't you want to go out?" You go up first, and then pull me up. ”

Wu'er looked at the window and looked at Qingcheng, and shrank back in horror. She had never been afraid of such a high place, and she was terrified.

"Don't be afraid! I'm holding you up below. Qingcheng saw Wu'er's fear, pulled her kindly, and sincerely encouraged.

Wu'er hesitated for a moment, finally nodded, and stepped on Qingcheng to try to climb up. But she was too short to reach the windowsill, and she almost fell down in a hurry. There is no way, so I can only change Qingcheng to climb. Qingcheng stepped on Wu'er's shoulder with difficulty, and reached out to hook the wooden stick on the window.

"A little higher, a little higher." Wu'er struggled to stand on tiptoe, and her little hands held it up hard. She was sweating profusely and her back was wet.

Qingcheng stretched out his other hand and hooked it as well. She put a little more effort and finally climbed onto the ledge. She looked out, and when she saw that there was no one around, and that the windowsill was not very high, she stretched out her hand to pull the dancer. Wu'er was short, Qingcheng pulled the pane with one hand, and handed it over desperately with the other. The two tried a few times before pulling the dance up.

Unbeknownst to him, the two were about to jump down. Suddenly, the crutch opened the door and saw two children. He yelled into the house, and strode towards the firewood room as he picked up his shoes. Qingcheng hurriedly pulled Wu'er and jumped off the windowsill, and the two ran out.

It was dark and the night was falling, and the two girls couldn't tell the path, so they only buried their heads and fled forward. The kidnapper and a tall, thin man chased after him. Qingcheng and Wu'er are young in the end, their foot strength is poor, and they have no strength after a while.

Seeing the two abductors coming, Qingcheng was in a hurry, and saw the lush bushes on both sides of the road, so he hurriedly pulled Wu'er into it. The kidnapper came and saw the two children, so he took a torch and shone it around, and ran forward again. Qingcheng and Wu'er didn't dare to make a sound, and kept lying in the grass and didn't fall asleep.

When the two woke up, it was already dawn. Qingcheng woke up Wu'er, and the two of them checked for a while, and saw that there were no shadows of the two crutches, so they boldly walked out. The two girls stumbled along the way, and it took about an hour to find the road. Seeing that it was almost noon, the two of them were tired and hungry, and after walking half a mile, they could no longer hold on, and fell to rest on the side of the road.

At this time, suddenly a person behind him grabbed Wu'er's arm and shouted, "Little, look where you are still running!" ”

When Qingcheng turned around, he saw that it was the person who lied to him yesterday. The man twisted Wu'er with one hand, and with the other hand, he came to capture Qingcheng. Qingcheng panicked, hurriedly jumped away, kicked the man in the stomach, and reached out to pull Wu'er over. But that man was very angry, although he squatted on the ground and cried for his father and mother, he still didn't let go. At this time, the crutch's helper heard the news and ran over.

Qingcheng saw that Wu'er couldn't get out for a while, so he didn't care. Suddenly, I saw a group of people on the main road. She hurried towards the group and called for help.

Her rampage startled one of the horses in the team. The horse raised its front hooves and neighed at the sky, and the man on the horse almost fell. A few men dressed up in a long suit hurriedly stepped forward to restrain the horse, and the horse quieted down.

"Where are you from? How dare you frighten my master's horse? A middle-aged man shouted.

The man looked strange, had a high nose and deep eyes, and his speech was a little strange, and Qingcheng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Knowing that he heard footsteps behind him, he reacted, pounced on the man on horseback and shouted, "Help, save us." They're bad guys, they're going to kidnap us and sell us. Kind uncle, save us. ”

The man on the horse was startled and gave the long entourage a look. The long man stopped the thin crutch who was reaching out and following Qingcheng, "What are you doing?" Have you nearly frightened my master's horse to death? ”

The thin man saw that the man on the horse was a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old, and he was not afraid of him. More and more sprinkled, "Where did you come from without long eyes?" I don't ask what kind of place this is, our name of Sanye Pan is not fake. Be interested, hand it over to me, or you will know the means of my Wuling Shuangxia. ”

The young man smiled slightly, got off the horse, helped Qingcheng up, and asked, "Where are you?" Is what you just said true? ”

Qingcheng nodded vigorously, pointed behind the thin man and said, "You see that short and fat kidnapper is still holding my sister." We are all daughters of good families, and we were deceived by them because we were separated from our families. Believe it or not. Qingcheng took off the Sinan jade pendant on his waist, "This is our family heirloom, and we lied to you as a puppy." ”

The young man looked at Qingcheng before, it didn't seem like he was lying, and when he saw that she was nobilized, he believed it in his heart. At this moment, I saw her take out the family heirloom jade pendant, and saw that there were two big characters engraved on it. He already had a plan in his heart, and asked the crutch loudly: "You said that this girl belongs to your family, do you know who her surname is, and what evidence is there?" ”

The thin crutch blushed when he heard this, and he couldn't speak for a long time. The short and fat kidnapper saw that his accomplice did not come back for a long time, so he twisted his dance and looked for him. After asking the reason, he couldn't help but be furious, pulled out the shiny long knife on his waist, and shouted angrily: "Where did the little white face come from, dare to come to the good things of Lao Tzu." If you dare to talk nonsense, Lao Tzu will kill you. ”

The young man was not so angry, and looked at the two of them fixedly. Suddenly, as soon as he stretched out his hand, four or five stout men with eight feet in length and fierce eyebrows came out from behind him. The men each carried a scimitar in their hands, their eyes were like torches, and they stared at the two of them coldly.

The two abductors have seen the world, and when they see that these people speak strangely and have fierce faces, they know that they are not easy to mess with. If you lose the dance, you will run away.

Those big men wanted to chase after them, but they were stopped by the previous long followers.

Qingcheng saw that the crutch had run away, and his heart was overjoyed. Pulling the dance to thank him, the young man waved his hand gently and said, "You two want to come to Qingzhou." I'm just about to enter the city, so why don't I give you a ride. ”

Qingcheng and Wu'er got on the truck behind them and entered Qingzhou City safely and securely all the way.
