Chapter 26: Plotting to Escape
After hearing this, the bandit leader frowned, wanted to say it directly, thought for a moment, and reluctantly laughed: "It's okay, it's okay, this matter will be discussed later." β
The woman didn't see that he couldn't see him, and her expression became darker and darker.
At this time, the leader turned his head to look at Yingqiu, and immediately said to the minions: "This is all home, why don't you let go of the newcomer quickly!" β
When the minions heard this, they didn't dare to slack off, and immediately went over to untie Yingqiu, Yingqiu only looked at the woman, but she didn't expect "Danglang" to say, something fell out of her arms, she looked at it, something was wrong, it was a conch shell!
Just about to bend down and pick it up, who would have thought, the minions reacted much faster than her, and one minion rushed over one by one, taking the conch shell in his hand and handing it to the leader.
Yingqiu was shocked, rushed up, and wanted to come back, who would, before he could run in front of him, he had already been dragged back by the minions.
Seeing her so panicked, the leader knew the importance of this conch shell to Yingqiu, and no matter how Yingqiu begged, he refused to return it to her.
He took a closer look and found that it was exquisite, bright and discerning, and he cherished it very much, and he liked to play with it diligently, and he couldn't put it down.
I couldn't help but praise in my mouth: "It's really a rare thing!" β
Raising his head, he asked Yingqiu: "The newcomer is already extremely beautiful, and there is such a treasure, how can I not be pitied?" β
He turned his head and instructed the minions: "Quickly bring the newlyweds down, bathe and change their clothes, and wait for me to invite the Taoist priest to come and discuss, and choose a day to complete the marriage with the newlyweds." β
Then he said to the woman, "Wait for a good life to serve the newcomer, and you have forgottenβ"
turned around and asked Yingqiu: "It's always a newcomer and a newcomer, and I forgot to ask, what's your name?" β
Yingqiu thought about it, it was useless to hide it, so she told him.
"It's a name, it's good, it's good, it's a good name." Then he said to the woman: "Qiqin, you are so good to wait for Yingqiu, there must be no mistakes, if there is a mistake, I will definitely show you to questionβand from now on, you are not allowed to cry all day long, you know?" β
Qiqin nodded tearfully.
Yingqiu is now extremely confused, what can I do, I blame myself, if I concentrate for a while and don't let the conch shell fall, isn't my fate in my own hands now.
Seeing that something that was vital to her life was taken away by the leader, how not to make her anxious.
After the bath, Qiqin accompanied Yingqiu to the bedroom prepared for her, which was a boudoir.
Qiqin was already sitting inside.
With Yingqiu, Qiqin forced a smile, because the minions had been following behind her before, the two of them couldn't talk, and when they entered the boudoir, they saw that there was no one in front of them.
Yingqiu whispered and asked how Qiqin had been taken captive here.
Qiqin listened, tears fell like beads, she told Yingqiu, she was robbed here in the spring, when she was married to a man surnamed Sun in the former village, at that time, relatives and friends, all the neighbors were present, and everyone was beaming, welcoming the bride into the house to worship and marry, who wanted to fall from the sky, they came with a group of people masked, holding sharp blades, cutting people when they saw people, stabbing them, killing a bloody road, snatching her from it and taking her away here.
At that time, she cried and grabbed the ground, almost seeking death, but was stopped by the minions.
Last month, I don't know what day it was, they just said it was a good day and an auspicious day, so they forcibly married him.
During this period, Qiqin washed her face with tears all day long, and she was in pain.
Seeing her like this, the leader, who calls himself Mubai (Yingqiu is puzzled: how can such a jackal-like person give himself such an elegant name?) Seeing her so sad, he was upset and scolded many times, and finally because Qiqin could not suppress the grief in his heart, he suddenly felt murderous intent, and when he raised the knife, he found that it was very cute, so he gave up that idea, and put her under house arrest for a while.
Qiqin was discouraged, but now that she had fallen into the cave of the tiger and wolf, she couldn't get out, so she had to swallow her anger and live in fear.
Qi also told her that there were countless daughters who had been captive before, and most of them were pushed off the cliff after they were tired of playing, and they were taken by the big birds flying around the cliff, and returned to their nests to eat them.
Yingqiu immediately thought of the scene when she was carried up, and saw the scene of the big bird flying away, and shuddered.
Thinking about Qiqin again, she is the same as herself, and they are such a cruel and inhumane gang of robbers with no humanity!
Yingqiu also told Qiqin about her situation, and the two immediately hugged each other and cried, sighing.
At this time, I heard the sound of footsteps, it was Yahuan who delivered the food, so the two hurriedly wiped their faces, pretended to be indifferent, and raised their spoons to eat.
After Yahuan left, Yingqiu asked Qiqin about the situation here.
Qiqin said that the person who is very strange in the curtain is very strange, and sometimes, when she goes to the room of the curtain white, she can see this kind of scene, he is tied up with five flowers, huddled in the corner of the room, and when she sees herself, she scolds sharply: "Bold slut, don't go out quickly!" β
Qiqin was taken aback, she really couldn't understand, it stands to reason that in this case, he should ask for help from himself, but why should he drive himself away now?
Sometimes, he didn't know what to pound in the room alone, and there were some knives and ropes in front of him.
Pretend to be casual.
Qiqin wanted to ask, but she didn't dare.
β¦β¦
Qiqin said a little more, but Yingqiu didn't listen to a word, all she cared about now was the conch shell.
She could see that although Makubai was very fond of the conch shell, he didn't know its true use, that is, he just treated it as a normal plaything and didn't take care of it very closely.
For the rest of the day, he came to visit Yingqiu during the day, and in order not to arouse his suspicion, he didn't say a word about the conch shell.
On the contrary, it was a curtain call, one day, after coming to Yingqiu's room to sit for a while, when he was about to leave, he remembered this and asked: "Yingqiu, after the conch shell fell that day, you seemed very flustered, but I don't know why you didn't care about it after that?" β
Yingqiu pretended to be disapproving, and said to the curtain casually: "That thing was found by me occasionally at the beach, and it was of little use, and I was startled when I landed that day, but I didn't panic at all." If you like it, you will give it to you. β
When he heard the curtain white, he was a little puzzled, such a delicate thing was said by Yingqiu as if it was worthless, which aroused his curiosity, turned around and went back to get it, and sent it to Yingqiu, reading: "I really don't understand, such a good thing, I like it so much, how can you ignore it?" β
Yingqiu was about to reach out to take it, but Makubai immediately retracted his hand, because he noticed that Yingqiu's eyes suddenly lit up when he was looking at the conch shell, which immediately alerted him.
"Hehe" laughed twice: "It's not me bragging, today I want to try to see if what you say is from the heart, and now I look at it, you really can't help it, in fact, you care about this thing very much, it's just a superficial board, right?" β
Yingqiu Fang was really anxious, she had calculated everything, once the conch shell was in hand, she would jump on it immediately, and she definitely couldn't delay for a moment!
However, it was taken back by the curtain white, which made her very sad.
Seeing through his heart, he couldn't help but regret a little: he shouldn't be so impatient, if he stabilized his mind and dealt with him for a while, I am afraid that he would be successful and realize his plan to escape, but this thought was just a mistake and a great opportunity was missed.
Yingqiu pretended to be indifferent, shook her head, and said, "What the master said is wrong, when you see your own items, there is no reason not to take a serious look." β
After hearing this, he was skeptical, but he still refused to return the conch shell to Yu Yingqiu, turned around and sent it back to his room, and never mentioned it again.
The wedding day is approaching, and the curtain seems to take it very seriously, mobilizing all the people under his command and busy day and night.
Even Qiqin was not allowed to be idle, so she was asked to do some rough work with Yahuan, which made Qiqin even more sad.
One day, seeing that no one was around, Yingqiu secretly called Qiqin aside and asked her in a low voice, "Sister must be desperate to escape from this place?" β
Qiqin was silent, and the contrast in status was so great that she no longer believed in Yingqiu, thinking that this was probably caused by the curtain to test herself.
Seeing her like this, Yingqiu was a little anxious, and said to her: "Don't doubt it, don't you have the same hatred as you, don't you have the same hatred as him, why don't you believe me so much?" β
Qiqin listened to her words, looked at her anxious and eager expression, and felt that what she said was true, so she nodded.
As soon as Yingqiu saw that there was a door, she looked around again and found that everyone was doing their own work, and no one cared about them.
Yingqiu told Qiqin about her plan, begging her to check the whereabouts of the conch shell that fell to the ground that day, and then wait for the opportunity to hide it in her arms and bring it to her, and the next step will be arranged by her......
After listening to Qiqin, she was a little suspicious, and Yingqiu swore to the sky: What she said was absolutely not false, and she saw that her appearance and temperament were indeed different, so she believed it.
Yingqiu told her not to be too nervous and excited, just act according to the plan.
Qiqin suppressed her excitement and looked for an opportunity.
Unexpectedly, that afternoon, Qiqin was sent to the kitchen, and the two never saw each other again.
Seeing this, Yingqiu was anxious, and walked around the room, she eagerly looked in the direction of the kitchen, hoping that Qiqin would appear from there.
used to be a personal maid ring of Qiqin, but now she is ordered to serve Yingqiu, and when she saw Yingqiu's restless appearance, she asked her: "Madame, if there is anything difficult, tell the maidservant, so that I can help you share your worries." β
Yingqiu looked at this girl, she was also full of sadness, it is estimated that these are all good family girls who were robbed by the curtain and a gang, and pity arises spontaneously.
But she couldn't tell the truth with her, she just said: "I'm lonely and bored, and I really want to talk to Qiqin, when can she come over?" β
Yahuan thought for a while, and said to Yingqiu: "Let's wait for me to think of a way." β
With that, she hurried away.
After a while, she suddenly saw Qiqin coming back, and when she saw that there was no one in the house, she said to Yingqiu: "I have paid attention to the conch shell, which is placed on the bookcase in the main hall, but because there are too many people passing by, although I have approached there several times, I have no chance to get it." β
Yingqiu was very anxious, and judging from Qiqin's expression, she was also very anxious, and even a little desperate.
Because she knows very well that the day Yingqiu gets married is the time when her death is approaching.
She had seen and heard that before, I don't know how many women were left off the cliff and dragged by the big bird after they married the newcomer in the confession, and if they didn't try to escape before, they would lose their last chance of life.
