Chapter 5: First Encounter
It was late at night.
Except for the two minions who were left to keep vigil, the rest of the people fell asleep by the wheels, and even the leader Zuo Sheng fell asleep on the grass after he was full of wine and food.
Qin Yan vigilantly inspected the tree above everyone's heads, and saw that the two minions of the night vigil were sitting in the convoy with their shoulders hooked and eating meat, so he carefully climbed down from the tree and touched the side of the car covered by cloth at the end of the convoy.
Just as Qin Yan wanted to lift the cloth, for some reason he heard the sound of breathing in the car.
He frowned slightly, he didn't expect that the bandit leader said that the item that could make the qi refining break through to the forging body was a living thing, and a not very good premonition came to his heart.
In order to prevent the living creatures inside from making noises and waking up others after seeing him, Qin Yan deliberately took out two more concealment charms and pasted them on both sides of the frame. After doing all this, he lifted a corner of the cloth and looked in.
The cloth concealed a cage in which a little girl who looked about her own size was looking at her with fear and hatred as the cloth was lifted.
Seeing the little girl, Qin Yan immediately understood what the bandits meant by the breakthrough item.
It turns out that after a person's age reaches a certain age, due to the lack of qi and blood, it is likely that they will not be able to break through to the forging period; At this time, it is only necessary to find some young boys and girls to refine the pill and take it, and then they can use the undeveloped prenatal blood in the bodies of these boys and girls to replenish their bodies, and even allow the users to become younger to a certain extent.
Since this elixir can break through to the forging stage 100% once consumed, it was very popular throughout Yongming Xia Island in the early years. Later, after being known by the Qin family, he sent a large number of disciples to Xia Island to exterminate this evil art, but he never thought that there would be anyone who knew about it now.
After all, in the family history that Qin Yan saw, this matter had passed for nearly a thousand years.
In order to see more clearly, Qin Yan lifted the strip of cloth wider, and only by the moonlight could he see the little girl's face clearly. I saw the girl cowering at the other end of the cage, her body bound by hemp rope, and a piece of cloth stuffed into her mouth to prevent her from making a sound; The satin skirt that looked very delicate was stained with blood at this time, the hem of the skirt was also tattered, and the face was painted black, just from the clear eyes and the approximate position of the facial features, this little girl should be quite cute.
The little girl obviously found out that the person who came was not the gang of robbers she was familiar with, and looked at the little boy in front of her, who was similar to herself, and her eyes showed some doubt.
Seeing this, Qin Yan made a silent gesture towards the girl, the girl nodded, and then saw him take out a wire from the storage ring and start tinkering with the lock at the cage door.
The loss is that in his previous life, he was tortured by those old locks at home when he lived, so he practiced a lock-picking skill that he was not proficient in, and after four or five minutes of tinkering, he finally opened the lock.
Under the girl's surprised gaze, Qin Yan took off the lock, opened the cage a small slit and got in.
After entering the cage, he carefully moved to the girl's ground, and then took out the dagger in his arms and cut it off. The girl also moved very cooperatively and slightly, and only after completely getting rid of the rope did she take off the strip of cloth from her mouth, and whispered with a little excitement: "Little brother, are you here to save me?" ”
"yes." Qin Yan nodded and asked, "How did you get caught here?" ”
It seemed that Qin Yan's question was aroused, and the girl's eyes suddenly watered, and she saw that she was holding back her crying and desperately lowered her voice and said: "My father and I originally lived in Qingyun City, and this time my father moved to Wuwei City with everyone in his family for the convenience of doing business in the future." ”
"Because the two cities are close, we didn't hire a guard, and whoever thought of it would run into the bad guys outside."
"Daddy originally wanted to give them all the things in the car, just to exchange the lives of the people in our family."
"But who knows..."
"But who knew that before Daddy finished speaking, they began to kill people, and they killed people when they saw them....."
"Daddy, mother, uncle, and uncle were all killed!"
Saying that, the girl couldn't hold back crying anymore, but she was very aware of the current situation, and desperately suppressed her throat, for fear that the crying would attract the bandits.
Seeing this, Qin Yan was also speechless, so he could only reach out and hug the girl into his arms and gently pat her back.
It is not an easy thing to witness a loved one die in front of him, Qin Yan had experienced it in his previous life, so he knew very well how the girl was feeling now; Coupled with the fact that the girl didn't know how many days she had been locked up and how many frights she received, she desperately needed to find a place to confide out.
In this way, the two hugged each other without saying a word, and I don't know how long it has been; Qin Yan only felt that the girl's crying gradually stopped, and she only sobbed quietly. And his chest has long been soaked with a mixture of tears and snot.
He simply wiped the little girl's face with his sleeve, and then asked in a low voice, "Then what is your name?" ”
"Ink... Mo Qianhe. The girl sobbed and said, "Ink... It's the ink of the ink... Qian is the Qian of Qingqian... He is the grass of the seedlings. ”
"Mo Qianhe... My brother remembered. Qin Yan said softly to Mo Qianhe: "Brother told you that in a while, my brother will put a talisman on you, which can make you not noticed when you run away." ”
"But keep in mind that this talisman only lasts for about sixty breaths. So after activation, you have to run in one direction, you know? ”
As he spoke, Qin Yan took out a concealment talisman from the storage ring and handed it to Mo Qianhe.
As a mortal, Mo Qianhe didn't have a way to charge the Concealment Talisman all the time like Qin Yan, so he could only use the Concealment Talisman itself to maintain its operation.
Looking at the rune paper that Qin Yan handed over, a glimmer of light flashed in the girl's eyes.
"Brother, you're a monk!" Mo Qianhe said with some admiration.
"Yes, but my brother may not be able to beat the bad guys outside, so you must be obedient for a while, you know?"
Qin Yan gently touched the girl's head and said.
In fact, he himself knew that trying to save the girl on such an occasion could not be said to be whimsical, but also to be said to be full of difficulties, and the monk who was in the lead alone was not necessarily something he could deal with; At the moment, it can only be taken by surprise first.,If you can kill a minion first, you can kill one.,This can also reduce some resistance for the girl's escape.。。
As for yourself? If it really doesn't work, just use the sword talisman that my uncle gave me. It's just that my uncle gave a total of five, and if I miss a blow by then, I'm afraid I won't have any spiritual power left.
But since I have encountered this kind of thing, I must take care of it, if not for anything else, just for my own thoughts!
