Chapter 676: Finding the Body
The old man also immediately lit the torch in his hand, and then held the torch high and said to Qin Meiniang:
"Let's go."
The old woman then said to both of them:
"Be careful along the way!"
Qin Meiniang also responded:
"Auntie, don't worry, we will be fine, and when I find my relatives, we will come back."
The old woman also followed the footsteps of the old man and Qin Meiniang to the courtyard, and then replied:
"Okay! Then I'll wait for you to come back! ”
In this way, the old man walked in front with a torch, Qin Meiniang followed behind him, and the two walked out of the courtyard quickly.
After leaving the courtyard, the old man also took Qin Meiniang and walked to the stream on the other side.
In fact, there is a wooden bridge not far away that can cross the creek and lead straight into the woods on the opposite side.
The old man also took Qin Meiniang and soon came to a wooden bridge by the stream.
After the two of them got on the wooden bridge one after the other, they also walked slowly to the opposite side.
Soon, the two of them came over the wooden bridge over the stream, and then came to the edge of the woods.
The sound of insects, birds, and beasts in the woods has been heard from time to time, which sounds a little scary.
However, for Qin Meiniang, she is not afraid at all now, she is just worried and worried.
She worries about the safety of the Queen Mother and her mother, and wants to find them as soon as possible in order to determine whether they are dead or alive!
Entering the woods, the old man was also walking side by side with Qin Meiniang, and the two of them walked along a path in the woods to the woods next to the cliff.
After the two of them walked for a while, they suddenly heard the cry of a wild boar not far away, which was very hurried and resistant.
The old man also choked up, then stopped and said to Qin Meiniang:
"Oh no, there's a wild boar around here."
Qin Meiniang was also stunned, and then after observing and listening around for a while, she said:
"Uncle, don't be afraid, don't say it's a wild boar, even if it's a tiger, I'm not afraid, as long as it dares to come out and attack us, then I'll be rude to it."
After speaking, Qin Meiniang also gestured the wooden stick in her hand to the old man, and continued:
"I know martial arts, can that wild boar eat this stick in my hand!"
The old man also nodded and said:
"What you say makes sense, then let's keep going, and after a little more walking, we'll be in the woods below the cliff."
Qin Meiniang also urged:
"Alright, let's move on!"
After the two of them stopped for a moment, they immediately began to walk forward again.
Although the light of this torch is not very bright, it is still possible to see the way forward.
After the two of them walked like this for a while, they only heard movement coming from the woods around them.
The old man's face gradually sank, and his heart was full of fear, he knew that Qin Meiniang knew martial arts, but what he didn't know was what the beast he was going to face and how many there were.
Qin Meiniang also raised her vigilance, she observed the movements around her from time to time, so that after those beasts rushed out, she also reacted to attack and attack as soon as possible.
After the two of them continued to walk a few steps, they suddenly rushed out of the weeds on this side, and several black wild boars came out.
After these wild boars rushed out, they rushed towards the old man and Qin Meiniang, howling as they ran.
Seeing this, Qin Meiniang immediately waved the wooden stick in her hand and began to strike at the few wild boars in front of her.
After a fight with the sticks in their hands, several wild boars were also hurt, and they all cowered and ran into the woods on the other side.
Seeing this, the old man was also frightened into a cold sweat, he held the torch in one hand, and took out the knife that was left behind him with the other, and he also wanted to defend himself from being hurt.
After the wild boars ran away, Qin Meiniang also asked the old man:
"Uncle, are you okay? Makes you frightened. ”
The old man also adjusted his breathing and said:
"That's what a surprise to me! The wild boars in this mountain are very powerful, let alone this night, even if you meet this herd of wild boars in this forest in the middle of the day, it is very scary! ”
Qin Meiniang also said something that made him feel relieved:
"Don't be afraid, those wild boars have already been beaten away by me, and they don't dare to come back and attack us easily."
The old man was also stunned, and then said:
"Okay, then let's keep walking, we'll be close to the woods below the cliff, and we won't be able to go far."
Qin Meiniang also nodded immediately:
"Then let's go."
After the two of them passed through the wild boar's attack, they also walked into the woods again, and they were getting closer and closer to the woods below the cliff.
Soon, the two of them came to the bottom of this cliff, there was no way to go, the top was above the cliff, because it was dark everywhere, and Qin Meiniang was not good at judging the specific location where the carriage fell.
The old man also stopped and said:
"We've come to the bottom of this cliff, and it's a cliff above, do you remember where your loved one's carriage fell?"
Qin Meiniang also thought about it, and probably came up with a general place, she said:
"The one that fell down is the center of this cliff, and we don't know which side we are biased to in this position?"
The old man also hesitated for a moment, and then said:
"In that case, let's go down in the direction of the right hand, where we are now should be on the edge of the path you go down the cliff, and the path is on the left side of the cliff, so let's look in the direction of the right side, and we may soon find the wreck of the carriage that fell under the cliff!"
Qin Meiniang also echoed:
"Cheng, then let's look in the direction to the right!"
After finishing speaking, the old man also held a torch, and Qin Meiniang turned around and looked in the direction to the right.
After searching for a while, the hard work paid off, and Qin Meiniang also saw the wreckage of the carriage that fell off the cliff at a glance.
After Qin Meiniang saw the wreckage of the carriage, she also immediately said excitedly:
"Found it, it's just ahead."
As soon as the old man heard Qin Meiniang's words, he immediately looked at it, as if he also saw the wreckage of the carriage in front of him, and immediately frowned and said:
"Yes, it looks like the wreckage of a carriage ahead! Let's go up and have a look. ”
Because, having already discovered something, Qin Meiniang and the old man also quickened their pace and walked forward.
As I got closer, my vision got better and better, and I saw that the horses that had fallen from the cliff had also fallen to the ground, and the carriage shed had also been broken.
Qin Meiniang quickly ran to the wreckage of the carriage, then squatted down and shouted at the wreckage of the broken carriage:
"Mother, mother! Are you all right? Respond to it! ”
The old man also came to Qin Meiniang with a torch, looking at the carriage being broken, and the horse that had been killed on the side, he was also full of emotion:
"Ahh That's a big fall! ”
Qin Meiniang didn't have time to think about it, so she immediately started to move, and began to pick up the wreckage of the broken carriage, shouting while picking it up:
"Queen Mother, Mother! If you're all alive, then please say yes! Don't scare Mei Niang like this! ”
When the old man heard Qin Meiniang call the queen mother and mother from time to time, he was also a little stunned, and he also stepped forward to pick up the wreckage of these carriages with Qin Meiniang.
After picking up for a while, Qin Meiniang also saw the Queen Mother and Qin Meiniang and her mother.
Qin Meiniang couldn't help but say sadly:
"What's wrong with you? Are you all right? Those pursuers have been killed by me, and you can rest assured, we are safe and free, and no one will come to trouble us again. ”
The old man saw that the Queen Mother and Qin Meiniang and her mother were hugging each other, both of them had blood stains on their heads, and there was no movement, he also stretched out and touched the Queen Mother's forehead, feeling that it was already cold, and he immediately said to Qin Meiniang:
"Girl, if they fall from such a high cliff, they will definitely die, don't be too sad, at least find their bodies, not destroyed by wild beasts or anything, this is already a good thing, you have to mourn."
Qin Meiniang couldn't help but tears crossed her cheeks, sobbed a few times, picked up her queen mother, and put her on the flat ground on the side, she was full of sadness and said:
"Queen Mother, I'm sorry! I shouldn't have fled with you, or you wouldn't have died because of it!" I'm the one who hurt you!"
After speaking, Qin Meiniang's tears rained down.
The old man was also standing on the side with a torch, and he couldn't help but sigh and shake his head.
After Qin Meiniang sorted out the body of the Queen Mother, she also stood up slowly, and walked to her mother's body, she also squatted down and continued to pick up her mother's body, and then she also hugged it to the side and put it with the body of the Queen Mother.
After sorting out the body for Qin Meiniang and her mother, Qin Meiniang couldn't help choking up and said:
"Mother! I haven't had time to honor you properly, you died a tragic death like this, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have taken you and the queen mother out of the palace, I shouldn't have escaped with you. ”
As soon as the old man heard Qin Meiniang say that she had escaped from the palace, he couldn't help but be surprised, and suddenly began to doubt the identities of the two dead women and Qin Meiniang.
After Qin Meiniang slowly stood up, she rolled up her skirt sleeves and wiped the tears on her face, and then said coldly with a tangled face:
"Your Majesty, I am inseparable from you, you sent troops to hunt us down, killed my mother and mother, this account, I will settle this account with you sooner or later, we originally wanted to escape, not to fight with you for power, but, I was wrong, we were wrong, I should be against you, in this way, the queen mother and my mother will not die."
