"He promised me that in this life and this life, I will no longer be obsessed, I will never see each other again, and I will forget each other at the end of the world." With tears in my eyes, I knelt on the edge of the bed and grieved and cried silently.

A man of five years and three thick was very upset when he heard this cry, he scratched his head with one hand and pointed at me with the other: "This girl is crying and howling something I don't understand." As he spoke, he kicked at the little minion next to him and yelled, "What are you doing in a daze? Tie her up for me! "A thin man hurriedly took a hemp rope and tied me up, I resisted hard, but I was a weak woman, crippled and lame, except for crying, I had no ability, pure wastewood. After tying it up, the commanding leader grabbed me by the hair, looked at me for a while, and nodded: "I'm always a little old, but it should be the woman in the portrait." ”

Auntie, I'll give you another chance, what do you say about me? You say I'm old?

The man let go of me, stood in front of me, and looked at me with a condescending attitude: "Ten thousand taels of gold, it's a pity if you don't want this, Qi Yucheng, Qi Yucheng, is cunning and treacherous, but he is a person who can't do business." ”

Big brother, how can you see it so clearly! That's right, Qi Yucheng is his mother's bastard! He continued: "The princess of the dead country, everyone gets to be punished, even if there is no gold ten thousand taels, if you are recognized, you will be dead on the street, today I will come to run every week, instead of risking the world's disapproval to confront the new monarch, it is better to send this worthy of the so-called 'gold ten thousand taels' gift, return to the court, and share the glory with the brothers who were born and died, don't you say, little princess?" ”

This person is actually Zhou Fa! It is said that he was born lowly and was a grass people, but in March, he revolted three times on the southwest border, which severely damaged the hearts of the people of Ningning, and then became more and more rampant, and he even shouted "abolish the prince and stand on his own". It's a pity that he is just a brave and unscrupulous man, in front of Qi Yucheng, he is a little ant who is not enough to worry about, and a flick of his hand is enough for him to end his nest. But it was in front of Qi Yucheng, not me. I am in front of him, like an ant to an elephant, an egg to a stone!

I looked outside the door, it was noon, and it was impossible for Chu Zhilan to come back at this time. Yes! I thought that my aunt and grandmother had come to work, but I didn't think that God was still unwilling to let me go. Aunt Bai, I'm sorry for you, Chu Zhilan, I'm sorry for you. I can only repay your kindness in the next life.

It was already evening, Chu Zhilan was carrying three rabbits home, and as soon as he arrived at the gate of the courtyard, he dropped the rabbit in his hand. The ground was littered with footprints, "one, two, three, four, five...... Six ......" Chu Zhilan counted silently as he walked, and there were two different footprints on the stove in the back room. Eight people in total. He went back into the house, picked up the smallest bow on the wall, pried open a brick behind the bow, and took out a long, slender cloth bag a foot long from it. He was about to leave, when he suddenly remembered something, ran back to the stove in the back room, got in, knocked and beat for a while, and came out with a dirty face, holding a small package in his hand. He put the package behind his back and turned to walk in the direction of the village.

I finally confessed why Qi Yucheng felt that Zhou Fa was not to worry about. This straw bale, who revolted under the banner of "tyranny of the faint monarch and elimination of violence for the people", is a violent person himself, and he is simply a local tyrant and a king in the mountains. As soon as he got me down the mountain, he robbed a well-off peasant family, tied up the owner of the house and hung it on a tree, and let the poor man beg his grandfather to tell his grandmother, and he would not let them go. In front of others, he killed two pigs and a cow raised in someone's yard. The farmer cried so much that Zhou Fa actually asked him to gag him with freshly slaughtered raw pork. I watched the scene so bloody that I was nauseated, and he only laughed like a madman on the sidelines. He walked past me and kicked me so hard that it hit me in the ankle, and I screamed and fell to the ground.

"Throw this woman into the firewood room for Lao Tzu!" I let out a deep breath. On the way to be taken captive, I have been worried, although I am not a yellow flower girl, if in order to save my life, it is not impossible to sell my hue, but if it is Zhou Fa, it is absolutely not! How can I say it, too...... Too ugly?

The firewood room was dark, and I was very sleepy after tossing for a long time, but I was tied tightly, and I couldn't turn over, and there was firewood under me, which was really ugly, and I couldn't sleep if I wanted to. In the darkness, my ears sharpened, and I could hear the neighing of horses outside, and the wild laughter characteristic of Zhou Fa. Thinking that his minions had captured other people's horses out of nowhere.

Gradually, my eyelids became heavier, and the firewood under me hurt my waist, I tried hard to turn over by myself, moving desperately, and finally turned over, but I saw Qi Yucheng in front of me. My eyes widened as I watched as he put one hand on my cheek, rubbed it slowly, and said to me tenderly, "Morning and twilight, come here." I watched his face get closer and closer, and somehow my eyes filled with tears, but his face was not blurry, but clearer. I felt him kiss me, and I hugged him hard and said to him, "I'm so scared, I thought you didn't want me anymore." He hugged me tightly, stroked my hair, and laughed softly, "I won't, Twilight, I won't." I didn't believe him, let him swear, he looked at me, and suddenly laughed out loud, laughing louder and louder, looking crazy, "Did you woman take the wrong medicine?" Why did Lao Tzu swear? I was stunned, sick and sick. Who's this? It's not Qi Yucheng, it's Zhou Fa?

Before I could sort out the confusion, a soft cry sounded in my ears: "Qingyi, Qingyi? "In an instant, I knew, I, in a dream. I felt soft all around me, and a little warm, someone touched my cheeks, but it couldn't be Qi Yucheng. I opened my eyes, accustomed to the darkness, and saw a familiar man, his face still stained with blood. I suddenly remembered the bloody raw meat in the farmer's mouth, and immediately sat up and retched. Chu Zhilan patted me on the back and whispered, "Be quiet, I'll take you out." He lifted me up and walked out of the firewood room, the bonfire in the courtyard was not extinguished, and at the door was the body of the little man who was guarding me, and I saw that the deep cut in his neck was still bleeding, and I forced myself to cross over him with nausea. Suddenly, I heard someone shouting, "Where to run?" Chu Zhilan dragged me away without saying a word, and threw me on a horse nearby, before I sat up, I saw a person with a big knife rushing to Chu Zhilan under the horse, seeing that the big knife was about to slash at him, but I don't know where he pulled out a slender dagger, dodged the opponent's big knife, and then quickly waved the dagger, before I could see clearly, a large amount of blood spurted out of the person's neck, and he fell to the ground and died.

Chu Zhilan quickly flew on the horse, grabbed the reins in front of me and drove away. The horses were galloping fast, but I heard the sound of horses chasing behind me, and Zhou Fa's angry scolding: "Stop for Lao Tzu!" Then I heard the whistling of arrows flying towards us.

I froze when something splashed on my face in the dark, and after a while I could smell a thick smell of blood. I turned my head to look over, and there was a bloody tear on Chu Zhilan's arm. I frantically covered his wound with my hand, and another burst of arrows flew by. He hurriedly put my hand in front of me with his other hand, and yelled angrily, "Don't move! I was so frightened that I didn't dare to move at all, but felt that the horses were galloping fast, and the evening breeze blew wildly on my face so that I couldn't open my eyes, and the sound of horses' hooves and arrows and feathers behind me followed closely. My lips were chattering. I broke my hand out of his shackles and in turn held his hand tightly. I heard the sound of horses' hooves getting closer, and I felt like my heart was going to beat out.

"Don't be afraid." The voice behind him sounded, restoring his original warmth and steady. But this sentence is more like an admonition than a comfort, as if Mr. Teaching is educating his students. So I nodded heavily. He took my hand back and shoved the reins into mine. Gradually, the sound of the horses' hooves behind us faded away, and finally only the horses under us galloped through the mountains and forests.

When we stopped, it was still dawn, and Chu Zhilan found a densely wooded place and drove the horses away. I was so tired that I didn't have the strength to recover much, and I didn't have the strength to do anything after I got off the horse, so I didn't want to take a single step, curled up in a ball, and fell to sleep on the ground. Chu Zhilan was unceremoniously, pulled me up, and said very sternly: "You can't sleep here!" "I was very sleepy, I had experienced so much in one day, and I was yelled at, I was quite aggrieved, I broke away from his hand, squatted on the ground like a liar, and said to him with a crying voice: "Chu Zhilan, but I'm so tired." And then I couldn't stop crying. The more I cried, the more uncomfortable I became, and the more I cried, the more aggrieved I became, so I scolded Qi Yucheng: "Qi Yucheng, you bastard, you can't die well, you are just a pile of bird droppings falling from the sky, and you are a toad when you roll on the ground!" Woo......"

Before I could finish scolding, Chu Zhilan still pulled me up hard: "I didn't hear what you were talking about, but you can't sleep here, don't play a child's temper with me here." Seeing that I didn't leave for a long time, Chu Zhilan squatted down and carried me on his shoulder. I couldn't stand it after he walked for a while, my stomach hurt so much, I didn't cry anymore, wiped my snot and tears on his back, sniffed, and said, "Chu Zhilan, you let me down, I can go by myself." He simply put me down and said, "When you arrive, just rest here." I ignored him and fell asleep.

I slept very comfortably, I was still a little cold, but then I gradually warmed up, and then I was woken up by the heat...... I got up and saw the fire in front of me, and the hay beneath me, and in the distance, the sky was already dark. I saw Chu Zhilan sitting on the opposite side of the fire, he leaned against a big tree, looking into the distance behind me, I turned my head and looked at his gaze, the curved moon hung in the sky, the faint light passed through the thick clouds, and when I turned back, I found that Chu Zhilan was no longer looking at the moon, but looking at me, but that look was much more melancholy than looking at the moon......

Big brother, your eyes are very dangerous......

"Aren't you sleeping?" I was stared at a little embarrassed, "Yesterday...... Thank you, I, I know I have caused you a lot of trouble, you saved me, I have nothing to repay, yesterday you saved me again, and you were injured, I promise, I will leave when the injury is healed, I know that there are many enemies, no, don't trouble you, big brother...... "The more I talk, the more I have no confidence, and the more I say, the quieter my voice becomes. I didn't really want to leave because I had nowhere to go.

"I see that your throat disease has become serious, I haven't heard a word of what you said, and your voice is so hoarse, it's better for you not to talk more." His voice was cold, coming from the other side.

Yes? Is it too much trouble to even listen to me? I felt the atmosphere become more awkward, he looked at me and told me not to speak, and intuitively he hated me a little, and I couldn't sleep again. I played with the campfire in front of me, and I put the hay under me into it, and the flame burned even brighter.

At this time, he suddenly said: "The light of the bonfire will draw the enemy." "I sighed, and stopped playing with fire. I suddenly felt that something was wrong: "Wouldn't that just be a fire?" "I looked at him opposite, his face was still stained with blood, and his face was still like that, and he couldn't see any expression." It is extremely cold at night in the mountains. He said.

I looked at him through the firelight, and he didn't hide from me. I made up my mind and popped the fire with a stick, and when I extinguished the fire, it darkened. Before I could get used to the darkness, I groped my way to my feet and walked towards where he was sitting. Soon I realized that I was overestimating myself, I lost my direction, and I shouted in a low voice: "Chu Zhilan? "It's been a long time, but there has been no response, and I suddenly became anxious, this turtle grandson won't really bother me and leave me away. I hurriedly shouted again: "Chu Zhilan? ”

"I'm here." The voice rang in my ears. As soon as I reached out, he grabbed him, "Here." ”

He pulled me to sit down against a big tree, and I took one of his arms and leaned against him: "It won't be cold to sleep without a campfire." I felt him nervous for a moment, but as if he hadn't noticed anything, I closed my eyes and exhaled relaxedly. Before falling asleep, I muttered, "I must sleep well, nourish my spirits, and run away on cloudy days without holding you back!" I heard him give an inaudible "um". In my sleep, Qi Yucheng broke free from my embrace, I shed tears, felt the empty cold in my heart, I don't know who surrounded me from behind at this time, and said to me in my ear: "Don't cry." ”

The next day, the harsh sun shone on my face, and I struggled to open my eyes, only to find that all of my eyes were swollen and I couldn't open them. I saw Chu Zhilan staring at me, and I immediately turned back, not wanting him to see what I was now. I heard him stand up and prepare to leave, so I immediately got up and grabbed him: "What, big brother, let's go together." He looked back, looked at me, and smiled. I laughed so hard that I was furious. "Will you come with me?" He asked. Willing? I have a choice, big brother. I immediately nodded and smiled, and replied, "Yes, naturally." He took me by the hand and walked straight on, it was the sun rising in the east, and he looked at me no more, but I heard him say, "If you will, I will rejoice." ”
