Chapter 382: The White Bone Pit
Ye Xiaoyu chuckled in a low voice.
This person has been struggling with this question since just now.
"How can there be so many whys, you were caught by the kidnappers, I happened to see this scene nearby, so I came to save you, human nature, there is no why."
Reaching out and hammering his sore thigh, Ye Xiaoyu said lightly.
"I know who you are."
Tian Yuyun made a move.
βοΌβ
Ye Xiaoyu's heart suddenly missed a beat.
Know who you are? Could it be that this Tian Yuyun also recognized himself?
This is impossible, at that time, Ye Xiaoyu was just a stall in Yuejing City, not to mention that Tian Yuyan couldn't remember herself, even if she remembered, it had nothing to do with her identity at all.
Moreover, she Ye Xiaoyu is an ordinary little person who is not well-known, and the word identity seems to be inappropriate at all when used on her.
"You're a woman."
As if he had guessed that Ye Xiaoyu would be shocked, Tian Yuyan paused for a while before speaking again.
Cut.
Ye Xiaoyu disagreed.
She still thought that Tian Yuyun knew something terrible?
It turned out to be nothing more than this.
She never wanted to hide the fact that she was a woman, but these people had too bad vision, and they all identified her as a man.
"Just now, at the bottom of the dirt slope above, our bodies collided together......"
Tian Yuyun said again.
"Women's clothing is both skirt and outerwear, and it is too troublesome to have three layers inside and three layers outside. Or men's clothing is convenient. β
Ye Xiaoyu said with a smile.
"Huaiqing didn't know you were a woman, right?"
"I don't know about this, the two of us haven't gotten to the point where we can talk to each other."
Afraid that Tian Yuyun would be cranky, Ye Xiaoyu hurriedly explained.
"Aren't you going to sue him?"
Ye Xiaoyu hadn't noticed it before, it turned out that Tian Yuyan was also such a chattering person, even more chatty than Zou Youheng.
"Sue him?"
Ye Xiaoyu laughed.
"I don't think it's anything, if Wang Huaiqing knows, then he knows, if he doesn't know, he doesn't know, I don't think it's necessary to tell him such a trivial matter."
"You're really open-minded."
Tian Yuyun sighed lightly.
"But thank you."
"Forget it, if we can go back tomorrow. You can just introduce more customers to take care of my shop. β
The business of the shop is the most important thing.
"It's all about now. Do you still have your shop in mind? β
It was dark in front of them, and they couldn't see each other's expressions clearly, so they could only judge the speaker's attitude by their tone.
"Don't you have anything else to think about?"
Seeing that Ye Xiaoyu was silent, Tian Yuyun asked.
Something to think about?
My mind went round and round. Except for a figure that was already blurred and could not be touched again. She Ye Xiaoyu really has nothing to worry about. Even if you die now. She will only curse her own bad luck and God's injustice, and there are really no other thoughts.
Is Wang Huaiqing his own thoughts?
Reached out and touched the jade pendant hanging on his chest. Ye Xiaoyu couldn't figure it out.
"Alone, I really don't have anything to worry about. Except for the shop. β
Ye Xiaoyu laughed out loud, with an inexplicable bitterness in her tone.
"Second lady, you should have a lot of things that you can't give up, right?"
Tian Yuyun is not like herself, she has a family, a husband, a son, and a person who often thinks about her, compared with Ye Xiaoyu, she is much happier.
"Hmm."
There was a faint answer from beside him.
In the spring, everything revives, and things like snakes end their hibernation and come back to life. Leaning on the mound, Ye Xiaoyu was actually full of fear, if a snake appeared in the grass, it didn't need to be a poisonous snake, even if it was an ordinary snake, it would scare her to death.
She felt that she had been here for a long time, but instead of getting brighter, the sky was getting darker and darker, which made her have a bad premonition.
If this is not the bottom of the valley at all, but a bottomless hole, between the mouth of the cave and the bottom of the cave, there is a winding road to connect it. The entrance of the cave is obscured by weeds, and no light can penetrate it, no matter day or night, the bottom of the cave is always so dark, so what should I do?
There was an even sound of breathing beside him, it was estimated that he was too tired, even in such a harsh environment, Tian Yuyan still fell asleep.
Ye Xiaoyu is also a little sleepy, or she should be like Tian Yuyun, sleep first, and then make plans when she wakes up......

"Ye Xiaoyuβ"
Zou Youheng shouted at the top of his voice.
The sky was getting brighter, and this night, he and Wang Huaiqing almost turned over the forest, but they still didn't find a trace of Ye Xiaoyu and Tian Yuyun.
Could it really be that the two of them weren't in the woods, as he had joked at the beginning?
So where will they be?
Zou Youheng felt irritable for a while, and couldn't help but hit the weeds heavily with the bamboo pole in his hand, as if venting his anger.
Wang Huaiqing is not as obvious as him, but it is not much better. He was exhausted by the search for half a day and all night, but without a single result.
"Tian Yuyi-Ye Xiaoyu-"
"Ye Xiaoyuβ"
The two of them yelled at the top of their lungs.
The dew on the leaves above their heads was shocked by the sound and kept dripping on the two of them, but there was still no response to the person they were looking for.
At dawn, Tie Yi and his men also found this forest, and when they saw Zou Youheng and them, they also found nothing.
A group of people searched again in the woods, even if the person's mouth was blocked and there was no way to make a sound, so that the kidnappers could hear some movement.
But after howling in the forest for a long time, it was still quiet all around, and there was not even the sound of birds.
"Could it be that it's not in the woods at all?"
went out to search for a circle to no avail, and Zou Youheng returned to the same place.
"Last night we chased all the way to the next city. But we found nothing, neither the carriage nor the people, and the road went straight, and there were no houses around except the woods on either side, so we turned back again, thinking that the group had hidden the lady in the woods. β
Tie Yi said.
As Zou Yu's most powerful assistant, he thinks he is very good at finding people, but this time. I really met an opponent.
"But I've been looking for it all night......"
Zou Youheng was a little discouraged.
What Tie Yi said makes sense. But this forest is so big, I have searched back and forth several times, no matter how powerful the kidnappers are, if the person is really here. It is impossible to be completely without a trace.
Wang Huaiqing also walked over from there.
"How? Did you find anything? β
Zou Youheng was impatient.
"Nope. Nothing. It's a valley over there. The stone walls on both sides are covered with grass. Nothing can be seen. β
As he spoke, Wang Huaiqing's brows tightened.
"The valley?"
Zou Youheng suddenly slapped his thigh.
"You said Ye Xiaoyu also jumped into the carriage, right? When she jumped up, her hands and feet were not tied. And the kidnapper didn't bother with her in a hurry. In other words, Ye Xiaoyu probably used this time to help my Erniang untie the rope in the carriage, and then the two of them jumped off the carriage......"
Wang Huaiqing had also thought about this possibility before, but Ye Xiaoyu was alone, and he had to take the weak Tian Yuyun with him, even if he was allowed to untie the rope and jump off the carriage, what was the possibility that the two of them would be able to escape from under the noses of the five big and three thick kidnappers?
After jumping off the carriage, the two of them ran into the woods, and the kidnappers naturally did not stop there, but must have chased all the way...... It's highly likely that the two of them have fallen into that valley! β
Zou Youheng's tone suddenly became firm.
"This ......"
Tie Yi and Wang Huaiqing were a little hesitant.
What Zou Youheng said made some sense, but if he really fell into that valley, then the two of them are ...... now
Because he didn't want to think about it, Wang Huaiqing didn't want to go down to that valley from the bottom of his heart.
"Let's go down and find out, a person like Ye Xiaoyu who regards money as his life will definitely not let go like this. If Ye Xiaoyu is fine, in order to maintain her business with the Zou family, she will definitely try her best to protect Erniang. β
As he spoke, Zou Youheng picked up an iron rod and walked straight in the direction of the valley.
Ye Xiaoyu, you must not have anything to do, the five taels of silver have not been returned to you yet.

"Ye Xiaoyu, don't let me die yet, don't you want to be full attendance this month!! βββ
"Huh?!"
A loud shout in his ears made Ye Xiaoyu wake up instantly.
His eyes turned left and right, and he was suddenly full of loss.
She is not in the apartment of the previous life, nor in the shop of this life, but still lying at the bottom of the pit where I don't know where.
It's dawn.
Fortunately, the situation is not as bad as she thought, this is the bottom of the pit, yes, but I don't know where the light is refracted from, although it is not strong, but it can barely make her see the surrounding environment clearly.
Bang dang.
It was as if the hand had touched something.
Crispy, it feels like a skeleton used to look at a creature in a previous life.
βοΌβ
The thing was touched by Ye Xiaoyu, rolled on the ground a few times, and finally stopped at her feet.
Tian Yuyan was still sleeping soundly beside him, breathing evenly, as if today was just one of all the ordinary days.
"Ahhh!!h βββ
Ye Xiaoyu didn't want to wake up Tian Yuyun's sweet dream at all, but when she saw the thing that rolled to her feet, she couldn't calm down anymore.
It was a skull, really a skull!!
Subconsciously turning his head to look around, Ye Xiaoyu was so frightened by the sight in his eyes that his back was cold, and he almost couldn't get up in one breath.
The place where she was not the bottom of the valley, but a pit that, judging by the strange weeds and trees growing around, should have been dug a long time ago.
The extent of the pit is not too large, about the size of three dry wells combined. But in this small range, there are rows of white bones stacked in large and small sizes, with different shapes, which may not be called "stacked", because from Ye Xiaoyu's point of view, it is just piled there, like discarded garbage. (To be continued......)
