Chapter Thirty-Eight: Tying Up the Beauty (Part II)

Zhang Huan quietly took Cui Ning out of the carriage when the carriage slowed down through Leyouyuan, Zhang Huan held her hand tightly and walked slowly on the mountain road, in the eyes of others, they seemed to be a couple who came to play, but the man seemed to be a little careless, and he didn't notice that the woman next to him was a little faltering.

When the two came to a secluded place, Zhang Huan let go of her hand, pointed to the big stone in front of him and said, "You sit there and rest for a while!" ”

Cui Ning sat down silently, she gently beat her legs, and suddenly said, "My father has already released people, why don't you let me go?" ”

Zhang Huan glanced at her and said with a faint smile: "Your father didn't let me go, but he didn't promise to let me go, so in order to survive, I can only keep you by my side." ”

After a while, Cui Ning couldn't help but say, "Do you know the consequences of kidnapping me?" ”

Zhang Huan smiled slightly, he jumped on the boulder, sat down side by side with Cui Ning, took out a piece of Hu cake and handed it to her and said with a smile: "The consequences!" Since I was a child, I will have a very sad life in the future, and I will even lose my head; And to Dali, in the process of looking for you, the Cui and Chu families may reach a tacit understanding between China and change the situation. ”

Cui Ning glanced at him in surprise, but refused to accept the cake he handed over, Zhang Huan saw that she refused to eat, and did not persuade much, so he stuffed it into his stomach twice, he jumped up, patted the cake crumbs on his body, took her hand and smiled: "Let's go!" We continued on our way. ”

The further she went, the more rugged the mountain road became, Cui Ning's feet had been worn out, and blood stains oozed from her shoes, but she didn't say a word, and followed Zhang Huan to stumble forward.

The sky has gradually darkened, not far in front of the water, an official road along the river zigzag to the direction of Chang'an, the official road is very quiet, no one, then Zhang Huan found that after a circle, he actually returned to the place where he went up the mountain, he touched the back of his head, and couldn't help laughing: "We are going back again!" ”

Seeing Cui Ningyun's sideburns scattered and pale, he pointed to a big tree on the hill in the distance and said, "Let's spend the night there!" ”

Hearing the word 'overnight', Cui Ning's eyes showed fear for the first time, she shrank back and took a step back, but Zhang Huan ignored her, took her wrist, dragged her up the hill, and then pushed her to sit on the bare roots, and said coldly: "If you are obedient, I will not hurt you, otherwise the mountains and fields are empty, lonely men and widows, and I can't guarantee that I will do anything!" ”

Cui Ning's face twisted, and he said firmly: "If you dare to touch my body, I will bite my tongue and kill myself!" ”

"Touching you?" Zhang Huan glanced at her and sneered: "Then I still hugged you, and I still held your hand for so long a day, so what is it?" ”

"You!" Cui Ning turned his head angrily, stared at him word by word, and said, "I thought that you made this decision to save people, and you are still a man, but your words and deeds now make me ashamed!" ”

Zhang Huan snorted coldly, "I don't need you to judge whether I am a man or not, but you are now my hostage, and it is not your turn to bargain with me!" ”

He stood up, looked into the distance, and said, "I'll go get some water now, you just wait here, if you dare to run, then don't blame me for being rude!" ”

After speaking, he strode down the hill, Zhang Huan had just left, Cui Ning immediately jumped up and ran towards the official road at the other end, and in a moment, her figure disappeared into the night.

Just as she ran down the hill, Zhang Huan appeared from behind a big rock next to him, he watched Cui Ning's figure disappear, shook his head with a smile, turned around and walked briskly in the opposite direction, but only took a few steps, Zhang Huan's pace slowed down, he looked up at the sky, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, he groaned, or turned back and quietly followed in the direction of Cui Ning's escape......

Courage stimulated Cui Ning's potential, she ran desperately forward despite the pain in her feet, but after all, the water and rice did not enter for a day, and she only ran out of two miles, and her little potential was exhausted, the moonlight was clear, the road ahead was very clear, and there was a fork in the official road a hundred steps ahead, and the fork in the road was a long wooden bridge, and the river under the bridge was turbulent, and it flowed to the northwest.

Cui Ning slowly walked to the bridge, and saw a sign standing on the side, which read: 'Chang'an Ten Miles', and the arrow pointed directly to the other side of the river, she looked back, Zhang Huan did not chase after her, so she relaxed slightly, and held the railing on the small bridge, at this moment, another road sounded the sound of horses' hooves, it seemed that a group of horses were rushing.

Cui Ning was taken aback, she suddenly hid in the bushes on the side of the road, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and dozens of horses gradually appeared in the night, there was a fork in the road ahead, they all slowed down their horses, Cui Ning peeked from the bushes, under the moonlight, I saw that the people on the horses were all dressed in military uniforms, the leader was about fifty years old, his face was thin, pale, and he had a beard half a foot long.

At this time, a person who looked like a deputy general in the back caught up and said: "Dashuai, now that the city gate is closed, why don't we find an inn in front to rest, and then enter the city at dawn!" ”

The middle-aged man nodded, "It's okay, you go to the front to arrange it first!" ”

"Yes!" The adjutant general rode his horse and led more than a dozen followers to gallop across the bridge, "Uncle Wei Shi!" Cui Ning suddenly recognized this middle-aged man, he was the head of the Wei family, Wei Ge.

"Uncle Wei Shi save me!" Cui Ning stood up from the bushes, she ran to Wei Ge Ma and knelt down, Wei Ge Ma took a step back, looked at the woman in front of her and said in surprise, "Who are you?" ”

Cui Ning finally cried, "I'm Cui Ning, doesn't Uncle Wei Shi know me?" ”

"Cui Ning?" Wei Ge looked at her again, and sure enough, it was Cui Yuan's only daughter, Cui Ning, and he frowned and said, "At such a late hour, why are you alone here?" ”

"Uncle Wei Shi, I was kidnapped by a strongman.....

Cui Ning briefly told Zhang Huan about kidnapping her, and finally cried: "I escaped while he was unprepared, and I happened to meet Uncle Shi, and I begged Uncle Shi to save me!" ”

But Wei Ge didn't answer her, there was silence for a while, Cui Ning felt that the atmosphere was a little abnormal, she raised her head to look at Wei Ge, only to see that his face was cold, and there was a bitter hatred in his eyes staring at her.

Cui Ning was flustered in her heart, she couldn't help but stand up and retreat, but another cavalryman blocked her behind, Cui Ning ran two steps towards the bridge, and stammered: "Uncle Wei Shi, you are ....."

Wei Ge raised his head and laughed, he gritted his teeth and said: "Cui Yuan's husband borrowed a knife to kill people, my Wei family was killed, and the woman was humiliated, I didn't expect his daughter to fall into my hands, Miss Cui, if you want to blame your father's poison, I will double the insult suffered by my Wei family to you tonight." ”

A cruel sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Let you die in bliss!" ”

Dozens of soldiers jumped off their horses, smiling and slowly walking towards Cui Ning, Cui Ning was so frightened that she never expected that Uncle Wei Shi, who had grown up watching herself, would poison herself, she turned around to escape, but her footsteps were nailed, only to see that at the end of the bridge, several soldiers had turned back and blocked the way.

At this critical moment, a black shadow suddenly burst out from the side of the bridge, the knife in his hand was fierce, and a knife cut off the hind legs of a war horse, the horse neighed and rolled to the ground, the sudden change made the people around him stunned all of a sudden, the black shadow was waiting for this fleeting opportunity, in the stunned eyes of everyone, he pounced on Cui Ning.

Cui Ning also noticed the change, and before she could react, the black shadow was already in front of her, and she only felt a strong arm tightly wrapping around her waist, and a familiar breath rushed towards her, "It's you!" She immediately felt that the black shadow was Zhang Huan, who had kidnapped her for a day.

The people around them had already reacted, they roared, drew their knives and pounced on Zhang Huan, Zhang Huan cut off the handrail of the small bridge with a knife, lowered his head and shouted: "Hold me tight!" ”

At this moment of life and death, Cui Ning's heart suddenly had a strong sense of dependence on Zhang Huan, she hugged Zhang Huan's waist and buried her head in his arms, suddenly, she felt that her feet were empty, her body actually rose in the air, accompanied by Cui Ning's scream, the two of them jumped down the mountain stream more than ten zhang deep.
