Chapter 50: Escape
He Mian'er seems to have had a long dream, a dream that is a little sweet and unwilling to wake up. She wanted to indulge in it, but she only felt her body swaying and seemed to move.
There were countless strange voices in my ears, one after another. The noise was so loud that she had to come to her senses and see what was going on.
She struggled to open her eyelids, only to feel that her eyelids were heavy, as if she was about to fall asleep in the next second. It was even darker in front of him, as if he was covered with something, and it was even a little harder to breathe. The body is even softer, the whole body has no strength, it is difficult to even move the fingers, and the body is tied tightly.
He Mian'er was afraid that she would fall asleep at this moment, she was stuffed with a large piece of cloth in her mouth, and she couldn't speak, so she could only try her best to make a sound of struggle. As soon as the voice came out, she knew that everything she was doing was in vain.
Countless sheep bleated nearby, muffling out the last of her cries for help. Then she realized that the boss had the idea of putting them in the cart with a flock of sheep.
Her head was covered with layers of cloth, presumably sheepskin. She was curled up and pressed to the bottom, and she guessed that Master Chen should be the same.
Thinking of this, she seemed to want to find out if Master Chen had woken up like her, but all she could hear was the noisy sound of sheep.
The sheep next to her kept bleating, and she seemed to fall asleep again, and in a daze, she seemed to hear the sound of the thin second child talking to someone.
For some reason, she suddenly came to her senses and tried to listen.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we came from Mongolia to sell sheepskins, it has been hot recently, and we haven't sold much, so we plan to go back and come back when it's cold." The thin dick had a flattering face. He and the eldest disguised themselves as the Mongol merchants who had come to sell mutton and sheepskins.
He had gone out a few days ago to buy a large number of sheepskins and flocks, and that was what he was going to do.
It is located on the border, and although there were occasional invasions of northern Tartars in the past, the people of Mongolia and the Central Plains still had private trade.
Although the government did not explicitly prohibit it, it did not block it, allowing the people on both sides to interact privately and exchange goods.
"You are sheepskins and lambs, aren't you? Let's check to see if there's anything hidden that shouldn't be hidden. The officers and soldiers at the pass seemed to be conscientious and responsible, and they were about to stab the sheepskin with a spear in their arms.
He Mian'er didn't know it, but when she heard that the officer and soldier seemed to be going to make an inquiry, she felt that she had the hope of escaping, and she was happy in her heart. I couldn't help but snort, hoping to attract the attention of the officers and soldiers.
She hoped that if the man could open the layers of sheepskin and examine it, he would find two people hiding underneath. But I didn't know that if the man's spear stabbed over, and then used a little more strength to pierce the sheepskin, not to mention, she would most likely be pierced into a sugar gourd.
When the boss saw the appearance of the officers and soldiers, he thought that the matter was exposed, and the officers and soldiers saw some clues. He quietly touched the knife hanging from his waist, intending to see that things were not good, so he slashed and broke out of the encirclement.
The hand that touched the knife was held down by the thin second brother, and I saw the thin second brother take out a few taels of silver from his waist, and quietly stuffed it into the hands of the leading officers and soldiers, and said with a flattering smile: "Hello official, you have taken this bit of silver, and buy some wine and drink with your brothers." It's really hard for the officials to guard here every day. ”
The leading officer and soldier weighed the few taels of silver, probably thinking that it was okay. Immediately, he smiled, took the spear back, and said, "It's easy to say, I see that you still understand the rules." ”
But it turned out that the officers and soldiers at these passes knew that the Mongols cherished fur the most, and often only the whole fur could be sold at a good price.
Therefore, he deliberately pretended to prick the fur, forcing the people to pay the tolls, and then let them go.
At this moment, the officers and men took a lot of silver, and they were happy to get their wish. With a wave of his hand, he was about to let them pass.
At this moment, I saw a person galloping in the distance, and in the dust, I could only hear him shouting: "General Zhengyuan has arrived!" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the frontier was shocked. After all, General Zhengyuan infiltrated the enemy camp alone for three years, and finally stabbed the deeds of Huerle, the leader of the northern Tartars of the desert, and everyone in the frontier can be said to be known to women and children.
The boss was shocked that Xu Yunqing, who he had been afraid of, had actually arrived here. How could you not let him be afraid. It's just that the more scared I get, the less reckless and impulsive I had just now.
He knew that if he forcibly broke through, Xu Yunqing would see the problem, and he was afraid that even if he could drive into Mongolia, he would be caught up by Xu Yunqing.
For a while, I only looked back at the place I came from, and my heart was three points of fear, but it was also mixed with five points of expectation, and I wanted to witness what kind of character this thirty-six generals in Mobei could not stop.
He Mian'er was a little more sober than just now. She knew that she heard the voice of the person who came from afar, "General Zhengyuan! "Since that Xu Yunqing has arrived!
She never imagined that Xu Yunqing would rush to save herself, after all, Longyan, Fujian Province is thousands of miles away from the northern border, and ordinary people are afraid that it will take ten days and half a month to arrive.
But when she heard him coming, she still set off countless waves in her heart.
She knew this was her last chance. Use all your strength to struggle for help. Whether it was the weak voice, or the struggle that struggled, it was once again drowned in the flock.
I only heard the thin second child in my ear ask, "Official, what do you think of us?" ”
He Mian'er held her breath and listened carefully, she knew that this unknown pass guard she had never masked, his words, at this moment, to some extent, determined her fate at this moment.
If he can stay in Shanxi, with Xu Yunqing's keenness, he should be able to detect the abnormality of these people. After all, he had always dealt with the Mobei Tartars, and he was very familiar with them.
These two are bound to panic, and they can stall for time and come up with other ways to get out.
He Mian'er held her breath, her whole body was listening to the outsider, paying close attention to his every move. I just hope that the man will say, "Wait a minute, let's check again." ”
Unexpectedly, the man waved his hand and said, "Let's go quickly, let me go." Then he turned around and said to the crowd: "The rest of the people have guarded the pass for me, and not even a fly can let it fly over casually." The rest will come with me to meet General Zhengyuan........"
He Mian'er couldn't hear what the rest of the people said. She only knew that the car under her was moving again, and she heard the sound of the thin second child shouting rapidly, and the car had already driven into the vast Mongolian steppe.
