Whoop -

"Sure enough, I'm hiding here, big brother, I'll look for ......"

The light around suddenly brightened, Ye Xiaoyu turned his head, and faced a big man standing on the dirt slope looking at the two of them condescendingly, probably out of the city, relaxed his guard, he didn't cover his face anymore, but Ye Xiaoyu felt that this face might as well be covered.

Dahan's face was full of joy at this time, and when he was about to squat down and grab Ye Xiaoyu's shoulder, his eyes suddenly blurred.

- Ye Xiaoyu smashed the handful of dirt mixed with gravel in his hand towards his eyes, although he knew that it didn't have much effect, but time could be bought a little bit.

When Ye Xiaoyu was doing this, Tian Yuyun had already stood up and ran forward.

Hopefully, this time they will be spared.

"Ah!!! ——”

But Tian Yuyan hadn't run two steps before he suddenly slipped down in the grass in front of him, and Ye Xiaoyu, who was following behind, saw this, so he quickly reached out to pull it, but before he could see what was under the grass, he also slid down.

"Big brother...... How good is that...... The two fell into the dirt pit......"

"How dare you say it!!"

"The pits are full of dead people...... Or let's ......."

"Damn, I've been busy for a long time, and I haven't mixed anything ......"

"Actually, it won't be in vain, big brother, look, didn't we send the letter, you can make a mistake ...... mistakes"

The sound in his ears gradually blurred, and finally only the "rustle" sound of his body rubbing against the weeds remained, and he was still holding Tian Yuyan's wrist in his hand, which kept sliding. The speed was so fast that Ye Xiaoyu's mind went blank.

"Are you sure the carriage is going in this direction?"

Riding on the horse, Zou Youheng turned his head and asked Wang Huaiqing, who was also sitting on horseback next to him.

The two of them had been out since the afternoon, and had been looking for them all the way, but now it was dark, and they still found nothing.

"yes, the carriage is heading out of the city."

Wang Huaiqing looked around and said.

"There are trees on both sides of the road, and I don't know if the people went forward or just into the woods."

Zou Youheng frowned, and there was a rare look of a hippie smile.

"Let's go into the woods and look for it. Rushed for an afternoon. If we had followed the road, we wouldn't have noticed a single trace. Moreover, these people must have wanted to use it to blackmail your Zou family. That being the case. That won't keep them too far......"

"Rain?"

Zou Youheng chuckled and repeated.

He quite agreed with Wang Huaiqing's opinion. But at the moment of dismounting, a funny idea popped up in my head.

"You don't still have that kind of affection for our second mother, right?"

Tethered the horse to a large tree on the side of the road, and the two tied their trouser legs tightly. Leaned into the woods.

"What nonsense!!"

Wang Huaiqing held a bamboo pole in his hand and quickly paddled the grass in front of him.

"What's this, admit it and don't be ashamed."

Zou Youheng also pulled hard and said casually.

It was already completely dark, but fortunately, Zou Youheng brought a fire fold, found a bunch of dead leaves in the forest, and began to make a fire.

Only when the fire is burned and the branches are lit can there be torches, otherwise there is no way to do it in this dark forest, without any lighting, let alone find someone, even if you go in and walk around.

"I said, although my young second lady is handsome, she is already married to a wife......"

Handing the torch to Wang Huaiqing, Zou Youheng lowered his head and tried his best to extinguish the fire on the ground, otherwise it would be bad if no one found it later, and it would be bad to burn this forest.

"No wonder Xiaoyu thinks you're annoying."

Wang Huaiqing raised the torch in his hand and continued to walk forward.

He didn't have the heart to discuss these with Zou Youheng now, half a day had passed, but he hadn't even found any clues, and if he continued like this, what if Tian Yuyan had something...... Wang Huaiqing didn't dare to think about it, but just quickened the pace of his feet even more.

"Heh......"

Listening to Wang Huaiqing's words, the corners of Zou Youheng's mouth curved.

This Ye Xiaoyu is really stupid, people are just catching Tian Yuyuan, what does it matter to her, she just wants to jump into the carriage, Wang Huaiqing didn't follow, she is a girl who is a hero.

"Come and see—"

Wang Huaiqing, who was in front of him, shouted as if he had discovered a new continent.

"Look, the grass here looks like it has just been trampled on."

Zou Youheng leaned over, and sure enough, the grass in the grass was crooked, and there were marks on the soles of his shoes, and he looked like he had just been stepped on.

"They guess they're in the woods, maybe they're being tied up somewhere."

Wang Huaiqing's eyes lit up.

"Don't be so sure, how do you know that this messy grass was not trampled on by someone who came to collect firewood in the woods?"

Zou Youheng objected.

Wang Huaiqing didn't bother to pay attention to him, and walked in the other direction with a torch. He had a strong premonition that Tian Yuyan was near here.

The Zou family compound is brightly lit.

"Master, what should I do now?"

In the lobby, Wu leaned over and asked Zou Yu, who was sitting next to him.

On the table in the middle, there is also a letter I received just now, the author of the letter is unknown, and the content inside is also very brief: "The day after tomorrow, take enough 10,000 taels to wait on Huangqipo, otherwise I will come to collect the body of Tian Yuyan, the second wife of the Zou family."

In fact, when he first saw this letter, Wu felt a little funny.

Not to mention whether the Zou family can take out 10,000 taels at once now, even if they can, these kidnappers are too worthy of Tian Yuyan, and they don't weigh whether this so-called second lady of the Zou family is worth so much money.

"Tie Yi, you take a few teams of people to search around the North District."

Zou Yu glanced at the letter placed on the table and commanded in a cold voice.

"Master, this matter is still unclear, I think it's better for us not to make such a big move, doesn't Yuyun's maiden family still don't know?"

Wu glanced at Zou Yu and said meaningfully.

"Tie Yi. You take a few people out to look for it first, and come back to me first to report to me if there is any situation......"

Zou Yu changed his strategy.

The catcher named Tie Sheng got the order and went out with a few of his men.

"Master, you're tired all day today, so rest early. I'll go to Li Garden to see Xiaobao. ”

Wu said, and stood up.

That Xiaobao is Tian Yuyi's son of Zou Yusheng.

Anyway, the Zou family already has its own bloodline, and it doesn't seem to matter too much whether Tian Yuyun comes back or not.

"Where's Youheng?"

Zou Yu suddenly opened his mouth.

"He's gone to look for the rain chimney. I didn't say it, sir. This kid is really caring. ”

Wu walked to the door, turned around and said.

"Alright, you can go down."

Zou Yu said lightly.

The light projected from the lobby stretched Wu's figure very long. She didn't really want to visit Xiaobao, who couldn't speak yet. She just made an excuse at random. Came out from Zou Yu's side.

Husband and wife for decades, the throbbing and love of youth are long gone, especially in the catastrophe ten years ago. She blocked the knife for him, but in exchange for her own daily guilt in the future, to Zou Yu and to herself.

Zou Yu is a good person, but at the same time a man. People will be selfish, although he adopted Zou Youheng, but he is not the flesh and blood of the Zou family after all, so after all, he has Tian Yuyan and Xiaobao.

Wu was saddened by these, but he had no way to resist. This is all human nature, and as a dignified prefect, she should be happy that she does not have three wives and four concubines.

A long time ago, the Wu family felt that they shouldn't be worrying about Zou Yu, and after Tian Yuyun married in, this feeling became even stronger. But every time, she has no way to let go, or rather, after paying such a big price, she is unwilling to let go.

"Second lady...... Second lady? ……”

I don't know how long it took to slide on that road, and when she finally stopped, Ye Xiaoyu felt that her back was about to burst into flames because of the long-term friction.

Tian Yuyun also slid down, leaning next to Ye Xiaoyu, the hands of the two were still holding, but she was silent, as if she was unconscious.

"Second lady? …… Wake up......"

Sitting up from the ground with a hard support, Ye Xiaoyu shook Tian Yuyan's shoulder vigorously beside him.

Fortunately, the body is still hot, and he shouldn't have died.

It was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything clearly.

With the touch of the soles of his feet, Ye Xiaoyu roughly judged that this should be the bottom of the valley or the bottom of the dirt pit, if it is the former, it is okay, and he can try to find some other roads; If it's the bottom of a dirt pit...... Could it be that they have to climb up the same path they just slid down?

But no matter what, the place where they are now should be flat ground.

Tian Yuyun still didn't move, Ye Xiaoyu was a little anxious, so she reached over to see if she was injured again.

"Ah?!!!h

Because it was dark, Ye Xiaoyu couldn't see anything clearly, and could only judge by his feel. It is estimated that he felt the touch of his own son, and Tian Yuyan screamed in fright.

"Second lady, you finally woke up, you didn't respond to my call for a long time just now, scared me to death......"

Ye Xiaoyu's tone suddenly became a little relaxed.

"Where is this?"

Tian Yuyan's voice was very small. It doesn't seem to have recovered from the fright of sliding down just now.

"I don't know, we probably fell to the bottom or the bottom of the pit."

Ye Xiaoyu shook her head.

"You check yourself first to see if there are any injuries or bleeding, now it's so dark, we can only wait until dawn to make plans."

As he spoke, Ye Xiaoyu tried to move his arm, although it was sore, but fortunately he was not seriously injured.

"Can you move your hands?"

Ye Xiaoyu confirmed again.

"Hmm. There was no blood on the body. ”

Tian Yuyan groped around his body for a while, and then said.

"That's good, take a rest now, there's a fierce battle tomorrow."

Ye Xiaoyu adjusted a comfortable posture and prepared to recuperate.

"You, why did you save me?"

was silent for a long time, and just when Ye Xiaoyu thought that Tian Yuyun had fallen asleep, this sentence sounded in his ears. (To be continued......)
