Chapter 2: Run, Bride
The terrible shout, listening to Xiaowan's heart was shocked, she bravely walked to the window, only to see a dozen people gathered downstairs, horses and carts, carts tied with a lot of boxes, and flags, but unfortunately Xiaowan can't read.
At this time, the crowd dispersed, and a man with a long figure and a black robe walked slowly, a long sword in his hand was cold, and there were four or five people on the ground who were pressing and shouting.
In the face of pleading, the man did not hesitate at all, his sword fell, blood splashed, and the person on the ground whined and fainted, and Xiao Wan watched the person called "Shopkeeper Ling" chop off other people's toes.
The two toes rolled down into the mud with blood, shocking, the man turned sideways slightly, his face was splashed with blood, and the fierce bloodthirsty gaze frightened Xiao Wan's soul away.
Xiaowan sat on the ground with weak legs, the furniture in this room was neat, the wall was pasted with big red happy characters, the bed account was a mandarin duck playing in the water, and under a pair of dragon and phoenix red candles on the desk, there were silver ingots and strings of copper plates.
This is the marriage room, and she knows that the shopkeeper Ling who wielded the sword just now is the man she wants to marry, Ling Chaofeng.
Before getting married, he was tied up in a firewood room, and every day he listened to the women outside talking about the Lingxiao Inn, saying that when the travelers entered their shop, either a few people came out, or the property burden they carried with them was gone. Whenever this happens, after a few days, the store will send people to the town to set up a stall to sell steamed buns, and those who have eaten them will say that the meat buns are not stuffed with pork, but must be made of human flesh.
The women all said that after Xiaowan got married, she slept in a bed made of white bones and ate soup made of human flesh, and within a year and a half, she would become a murderous dominatrix without blinking......
"Daddy, where are you?" Xiaowan wiped away her tears and curled up.
Before she was tied up, she had packed her luggage and was going to Baisha Town to find her father's good brother Blacksmith Zhou, and ask him about her father's whereabouts, but now Qingling Village can't go back, and Xiaowan doesn't want to marry Ling Chaofeng, the only way out is to find her father and ask him to withdraw from the marriage for himself.
Raising her head and seeing the strings of money piled up in a small mountain under the red candle, Xiaowan pursed her lips tightly and stood up unconsciously.
"First, lend me a little money...... she said to herself, turned around and grabbed the red hijab on the bed, took two strings of copper plates from the case, poured a plate of dried snacks, tied it up and held it in her arms, and dared to touch the door.
I opened a crack, just saw the scene downstairs, only to see a burly, imposing man, carrying a sack as big as a person, swaggering out, along the sack there are bright red blood dripping down, thinking that it may be that the person was killed just now in this sack, scared Xiao Wan trembling.
This run, being caught is death, but staying here is also death, horizontal and vertical is death, if you can run, you can live.
Xiao Wan secretly cheered herself up, and when the big man turned back, she gritted her teeth and opened the door to touch the downstairs, she could hear the commotion behind the store, and the blood stains on the ground were towards the front door, and there was no half a figure in the store, only a dozen or so square tables of eight immortals, she didn't dare to stay, and rushed straight out of the door.
It was already sunset outside, and I was looking for the direction where Baisha Town was located, and I ran away without looking back.
Let's say that Baisha Town is ten miles away from her home Qingling Village, and although Lingxiao Inn is under the rule of Baisha Town, it is still ten miles away from the town, and ten miles east of the inn is Baisha River.
Xiaowan wanted to go back to Baisha Town to find Uncle Zhou, so she walked west to the sunset, the golden sun shone on her face, inexplicably ignited the hope of life, and there were tears on her face, and she finally smiled for more than half a month.
Ten miles away, said far is not far, said near is not close, this pass rushed away, to the town, the sky is already dark.
