Chapter 32: Bandits
"Hold on to me!" Sain Yunchuan gritted his teeth and said.
He grabbed the branch beside him with one hand to fix his body, and tightly pulled Lin Youran's wrist with the other.
The mudflow was still surging forward rapidly, and half of Lin Youran's body was still immersed in it, being pulled by two forces together, she struggled to raise her other hand, and tightly grasped Sain Yunchuan's wrist.
At the same time, Sain Yunchuan used his hand to pull Lin Youran out of the mudflow, but the mudflow resistance was too great, he even tried a few times and failed, and his strength was almost exhausted.
Lin Youran also gritted her teeth and insisted, although she really wanted to be like the protagonist in the TV series, let Satin Yunchuan leave her alone and take care of herself.
But she clearly knew that Sain Yunchuan was her only lifesaver at the moment, and he hadn't given up at the moment, so she didn't dare to ...... Nor can they utter such righteous and awe-inspiring words.
After satin Yunchuan rested for a while, he gritted his teeth and exerted his strength again, and the green tendons between his hands and forehead burst out, and he was about to drag Lin Youran out of the mudflow, but at this time, there was a crisp "click" sound in his ears.
Satinyun Chuan's hand was light, his body also lost support, and he fell into the surging mud flow with Lin Youran, and the hands that the two were originally holding were also washed away, Lin Youran's eyes were dark, and he said in his heart: "It's over...... I'm going to die a second time......"
Not to mention that she doesn't know how to water, even if she is a swimming champion, she doesn't have the ability to show it when she encounters this scene, and I don't know if it's lucky or unlucky, just as Lin Youran's body sank, a broken tree trunk floated in her direction.
The trunk hit her calf straight, and the indescribable pain came from her leg, she reacted quickly, and when the trunk floated up, Lin Youran directly hugged the trunk tightly, and when she looked up again, Satinyunchuan was gone.
And although Lin Youran had a tree trunk by her side, she still ate a lot of mud and sand, and coupled with her weak body, she fainted in a groggy state.
When she was conscious again, she heard a noisy voice beside her, and it seemed that there were many people beside her, Lin Youran tried to open her eyes, which seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, and saw the face of a strange man.
"Brother Leopard, she's awake!"
The man was born lean, with a pair of slender and shrewd eyebrows, Lin Youran looked at it in a daze, and his first reaction was "The monkeys in this place can actually speak."
But a moment later, as she came to her senses, she heard the cries of children, the sighs of women, and the impatient beating and scolding of men.
Lin sat up suddenly, only to find that he seemed to be placed in a ruined temple, and there was a group of ragged people sitting in the corner, both men and women, and a few small children.
And next to them, several fierce men were guarding their side with weapons, constantly reprimanding the crying child hiding in his mother's arms.
Wait...... How do you seem to have seen this scene somewhere......
A memory that didn't want to be remembered suddenly emerged, and Lin Youran suddenly remembered that when he first woke up, it was the same scene as now.
Before Lin could ask, a burly man with a knife hanging from his waist squatted in front of her, pinching her chin open, as if checking her teeth.
Really...... Providence makes people, so coincidentally, she actually fell into the hands of human traffickers again! Lin Youran wanted to cry without tears, and his whole body hurt badly, especially his throat, which was dry and painful as if he had swallowed glass.
Also, since she fell into the hands of human traffickers, is Satinyun Chuan also here?!
Lin Youran suddenly became much more energetic, she looked at the crowd in the corner, there were about twenty poor people selling on behalf of her, her eyes swept over every face, and she made sure that none of them she recognized.
Disappointed and worried, she turned her head and grabbed the man who had just checked her teeth and asked, "Did you see a man when you rescued me?" He's tall and thin, looking like a little white face? ”
Her words caused everyone to burst into laughter, and Lin Youran's brain was buzzing, and when they had laughed enough, one of them joked loudly: "If you want a man, just pick from it and see which one is the little white face you like?" Hahahahaha......ha
"Don't you really say it, don't we really have a little white face here! Right...... Mr. Wenyu! ”
As they talked, they didn't know who it was, but suddenly they pushed someone over, and the man was obviously defenseless, and he was stumbled backwards and almost fell to the ground.
When he stood up straight with an embarrassed face, Lin Youran saw that this person was wearing a cyan robe, long and clean, with a bookish air on his body, as if he was a scholar, could he also be a slave to be sold?
"You guys are playing, how can this girl be the person this girl is looking for!"
Although there was a little panic on his face, his tone was flat, and he didn't seem to be worried that these bandits would be bad for him, plus these people called him "sir", could they be in a gang?
Before Lin Youran could sort it out, the man turned to her and said, "When we found the girl, there were indeed a few people around you who were washed up the slope together, but the girl was the only one alive, otherwise, the girl wouldn't be the only one here." ”
"Dead ...... He's dead? Lin Youran's face was full of astonishment, and his sore and swollen eyes widened and widened.
How is this possible?! How could Satinyun Chuan die so easily?? His martial arts are so high, and he is the next master of the Yusheng Sect who is predetermined, how can it be!
Ke Lin leisurely remembered the turbulent torrent at that time, and the whole person was deflated at once, the situation was urgent at that time, and Satinyun Chuan spent a lot of effort to save her, at that time, no matter who fell into the rapid mudflow, it was nine deaths.
Don't...... Is he really dead?
Satin Yunchuan is the person she has been guarding against all the way, and it took her a long time to solve the misunderstanding with him, and he really died like this??
Lin Youran didn't want to believe it, but she had already seen the fragility of life, as young as her, she had only graduated in just one year, and she died of overwork, not to mention the power of nature, it couldn't be easier to destroy a flesh and blood body.
Lin Youran couldn't accept it for a while, tears fell down her eyes, Satin Yunchuan died to save her, such a big favor made her conscience uneasy for the rest of her life......
No way! If she wants to see people like corpses, she must find Sain Yunchuan, at least ...... At least let him be buried in the ground......
Lin Youran wanted to stand up, but as soon as she moved slightly, there was a sharp pain in her knee, and she looked down to see that her leg seemed to have been poked by the broken tree trunk, and now it had been bandaged.
The scholar named Wenyu blushed and said: "The girl's leg is badly injured, and the injury is covered with mud and sand...... It's rude. ”
"Thank you...... Thank you. ”
Lin Youran sobbed, just now she wanted to go to Satin Yunchuan on the spur of the moment, and now she thought about how this group of people could let her go.
People had to bow their heads under the eaves, Lin leisurely wiped her tears, her legs were difficult to move, she couldn't escape, she could only find a way to deal with this group of outlaws.
"Little brother...... To give...... Would you like to give a glass of water? Lin Youran said in a hoarse voice.
Wenyu was not a bad person, and when she saw that she was no longer crying, she ran outside, and after a while, she came back with a bowl of water.
The water should be the rainwater outside, and there is a thick layer of sediment sinking underneath, although Lin Youran is staying in the broken temple at the moment, but she is like a person who is about to die of thirst in the desert, and she doesn't care whether it is clean or not, she drinks the bowl of water with a bang.
After she finished drinking, she eased her senses, crossed Wenyu, and said to the person who looked like the leader: "Big brother has read countless people in this business, you should be able to see from my clothes that I am not an ordinary girl, I can't hide it, my sister is a leader in the ghost market, this landslide separates us, she should be looking for me not far away, if you help me find her, don't say that it is to redeem me, even these slaves you want to sell, she will buy them together, and she will not bother you to sell them to the slave market." ”
Lin Youran's expression was sincere, what she said was the same as the truth, she didn't dare to say anything else, so she said that if this person really sent her back, the president's sister would probably eat black, and let this group of slaves go directly, and it would be a good thing not to wipe out this group of people.
Her little abacus is shrewd, but as Lin Youran said, these people are all old oilers, how can they be fooled so easily.
The leopard brother looked her up and down, and smiled coldly, "Don't say that your sister is from the ghost city, even if your brother-in-law is the emperor of the dynasty, you can't escape, Lao Tzu warns you, don't be smart, otherwise you ......"
His hand was on his neck and made a threatening gesture, Lin Youran saw that this person didn't buy oil and salt, thought he didn't believe it, and said hurriedly: "I really didn't lie to you, if you sell me, you can only earn 133 taels of silver at most, but if you find my sister, she will give you 5,000 taels, why should you miss this opportunity to make money?!" ”
Brother Leopard didn't respond, but the people on the side were moved, "Brother Leopard, if this little lady says it's true, won't we make a lot of money, five thousand taels of silver...... We've never seen so much silver before! ”
"Don't fucking talk nonsense!" Brother Leopard glared at the man fiercely, "If her sister is really the leader of the ghost market, these five thousand taels of silver are the paper money to send our brother on the road!" If anyone has a mind that should not be moved......"
He got up and looked at the people around him murderously, "Lao Tzu will kill him!" ”
If these words continued, no one dared to squeak anymore, Lin Youran also closed his mouth in amusement, and from time to time, the rain gradually stopped, and the leopard led everyone to the road.
Lin Youran learned from the topic of their chat that they were bandits who occupied the mountains in the nearby mountains, and often robbed pedestrians who trespassed into their territory without permission, and took away all the money on them...... That is, this leopard brother, who took it to the slave market in the town to sell it for money.
Today, they were pressing the slaves to hurry, but they didn't expect a landslide to happen in the distance, so they hid in this dilapidated temple, and also picked up a Lin Youran for nothing.
After listening to this, she had mixed feelings in her heart, and she didn't know whether she was lucky or unlucky.
