Chapter 18: Running Away from Home

At night, the spring is cold, and the mountains are filled with a thin layer of mist.

When Xiao Jingyi returned to the mountain, he saw the door of his wooden house open, he was stunned for a moment, and then walked into the house.

"Jingjia? Jingjia? He looked at the dark room and whispered.

Seeing that there was no one around, Xiao Jingyi felt that something was wrong, so he quickly took out the fire fold.

The firelight illuminated the small room, and she was nowhere to be seen, Xiao Jingyi turned around and ran to the hut and shouted her name from afar.

"Qingning! Jiang Qingning!!! Xiao Jingyi panicked, thinking to herself where could she go? Could it be that there are gangsters who have captured a lot of her? The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became.

——

In the dark night, the moonlight shone on the earth, and the path ahead could be vaguely seen.

Qing Ning walked in a hurry with her burden, she had nothing to take away, there were only one or two clothes in the baggage, in order not to marry Zhao Da, she could only leave.

Taking advantage of the remnants of the wine to strengthen her courage, Qing Ning plucked up the courage to hurriedly pack up her clothes and leave while he went to the hut, and now she watched herself get farther and farther away from the wooden house behind her, and hurriedly ran down the mountain, crying and running while holding her baggage, she was scared, she missed Abu.

Where can the "Woo Woo Woo ......" go? She wiped her tears, she had nowhere to go, homeless.

Three years ago.

"Father, can we still go back to the grassland?" Qingning asked Abu.

"The grassland grain is exhausted, the cattle and sheep are dead, the grass is dry, this place is prosperous and lively, everything is there, let's stay here, okay?" Jiang Nuo said.

——

When dawn falls, the sky lights up, the dew of the blades of grass rolls down, and people get up early to gather together.

Qingning went all the way north, walked all night on the mountain road, the whole person was confused, the wine had almost faded, she regretted her impulsiveness, looked back at the mountain, the lush mountains and forests were very dazzling at this time.

"Girl! Where are you going? Behind him, a lady drove a bullock cart slowly.

"Gangnam." Qingning said that this eldest lady is from a nearby village, and her face is very raw.

The eldest lady stopped and asked with a puzzled expression, "Where is Jiangnan?" ”

"Jiangnan can be prosperous, when I was young, I heard my father say that there are mountains and rivers, and the people are beautiful!" Qing Ning said with a smile, thinking that this place was too remote, so go to the Jiangnan area first, and then think of another idea.

"That's good, you come up, can I take you to Jiangnan?" The eldest lady saw that this girl was very kind, so she gave her a ride.

Qingning was a little excited with the burden, and after thanking the eldest mother, she jumped into the ox cart with the burden.

The ox cart walked bumpingly, the scenery on both sides was very beautiful, the river was horizontal, the green mountains and green waters reflected each other, and the wind was soft.

Qing Ning lay on the ox cart, pillow on the haystack, and after a night of driving, she couldn't help but fall asleep.

An hour later, Qingning was shaken awake, she opened her sleepy eyes, and dimly saw an eldest lady appear in front of her.

"Girl! Girl! This is the town, aren't you leaving home in a bad mood? If so, the eldest lady can take you back. The eldest lady asked worriedly.

Qing Ning sat up groggily, she drank too much last night, and now she woke up with a headache, she covered her head and looked around, it seemed that she had come to the most prosperous town nearby, she thanked her mother again and got out of the car.

Although the town is the most prosperous place within a radius of dozens of miles, it is far inferior to Jin'an. Qingning was a little emotional, she actually missed the prosperity of Jin'an, the willows on the palace walls and the snow on the eaves.

"There was a fugitive in town yesterday." An old man talked to a friend.

"But what happened?" A friend asked.

"What can it be? The fugitive was said to be a famous actor, and he sang a favorite song from the previous pilgrimage, and he was demoted here. Lao Su said.

Qing Ning was a little stunned when she heard it on the side, could it be that Yu Qing was a famous actor? But no matter how she looked, she was stunned with a lot of thoughts, and now she didn't know where to go.

——

When it was still late at night, Xiao Jingyi turned over the entire mountain, and there was no trace of Qingning, when he returned to the house to drink water, he glanced at the cabinet next to him, and found that her clothes were missing, Xiao Jingyi sighed in his heart.

The sky was white, and when Wan Ling was about to get up to feed the livestock, she saw Yu Qing coming in a hurry, she put down what she was doing and greeted her.

"Qing ......" Xiao Jingyi was a little anxious, and changed his words and said, "Is Jingjia here with you?" ”

"No, what's wrong?" Wan Ling was a little confused.

"She's gone." Xiao Jingyi said.

"Where did you go?!" Yun Ling is also anxious, don't meet the disciple, her appearance, how dangerous it should be to leave alone.

"Let's go out and look for it, but I don't know why." Xiao Jingyi said.

Yun Ling thought about it for a while, and then thought of the matter of the eldest lady of the Wen family, so he came out one by one, only to see Yu Qing's brows furrowed, and a trace of anger appeared on his handsome face, should he be going to trouble Zhao Da?

"Don't make trouble, Aunt Zhao treats you well." Wan Ling persuaded him.

"Hmm." Xiao Jingyi responded casually, thinking that if something happened to Jingjia, she would find him to settle the account, and then hurriedly ran to Aunt Li's to borrow a donkey and look around.

——

Qing Ning looked at the shopkeeper of the bun shop, she was a little hungry, staring intently at the hot bun and swallowing her saliva. The shopkeeper saw that she was beautiful, so he gave her a bun, and Qing Ning quickly took it and nibbled on it regardless of the image.

"You useless womanizer!" The shopkeeper's wife was a pungent one, twisted his ears and scolded, and pointed at Qingning and scolded, saying that she was misbehaving and seducing other people's husbands.

Qing Ning's eyes were red, the bun in her hand suddenly became tasteless, and she left lonely.

The town is not very large, and the puddings that come and go are gradually increasing. Qing Ning walked on the street, some wanted to go back, but she couldn't pull her face back, she thought of leaving the town, all the way north back to the grassland, as soon as she thought of the vast grassland, tears appeared in the corners of her eyes.

Qing Ning was about to leave the town, only to see the officers and soldiers looking for people everywhere with the portraits of fugitives, she glanced at it from a distance, and recognized that it was not Yu Qing, thinking that Yu Qing was so handsome, it really didn't look like a singer.

"Hey! Don't go! An officer shouted from behind.

Qing Ning stopped, turned around, and looked at the officer and soldier suspiciously, her feet trembled a little, and she remembered the past.

"There's... What...? She asked, trembling.

"What are you afraid of what I'll do?!" The officer was a serious man, and he showed her a portrait of the play, and asked her if she had seen him.

Qing Ning looked at the person in the painting and felt a little familiar, she seemed to have heard him sing, but she had never seen this person, so she had to shake her head.

So, the officers and soldiers took out a portrait again, saying that the princess of the previous dynasty was on the run, and the saint asked to be taken back.

Qing Ning's hands were trembling, and she looked at the officers and soldiers in front of her and spread out the portraits for her to take a closer look.
