The carriage stopped and Chaoxi went out to urinate.
Chaoxi came back and the carriage continued to move.
Along the way, others were crying, but Rong Chaoxi slept all the time.
"Get out of the car! Everyone get out!"
The scarred man opened the car door hastily and urged everyone to get out.
Several people were pushed out of the carriage, which had already reached the foot of the mountain.
Rong Chaoxi tried several times and finally opened his sleepy eyes.
At this moment, I saw four or five men with knives surrounding the carriage, all of them looking ferocious.
I saw the pretty woman holding Rong Chaoxi jumping out of the carriage.
"Why is there someone with a baby?"
One of the pot-bellied men grumbled and saw that there was no one in the car.
"Where's the person I told you to kidnap?!"
"It's right here." The pockmarked man pointed at Rong Chaoxi, "It's this little girl, the general's daughter."
The big-bellied man turned around and looked at the little guy who was covered in dirt, whose clothes couldn't be seen in their original form, and had saliva marks at the corners of his mouth, and frowned.
How come the little thing is so dirty?
The little guy sniffed the crystal pendant that was about to fall out of his nose and grinned at the big-bellied man.
Or is she just a fool? Is she really a daughter of a wealthy family?
Seeing the doubt in the big-bellied man's eyes, Aunt Tao quickly explained,
"The little girl tripped while peeing."
The morning dew still lingered on the mountain grass, soaking the little one's dress. She came into close contact with the earth, becoming a mud child. (Just to clarify for Chaoxi, she didn't fall into urine.)
"Hurry up the mountain. When we left the city, there was already movement in the city. I wonder if they are chasing us!?"
The scarred man glanced at the narrow path behind him.
From time to time, small animals would come out to take a look and then run away to the opposite woods.
The branches on both sides of the path were densely packed with black flocks of birds.
The scarred man had a puzzled look on his face.
Why do I feel like these birds and small animals have been following us all the way?
Then he shook off this absurd idea.
"Go up the mountain, quickly!"
"Let's not talk about the general still being stuck in jail. Even if he gets out and enters the territory of Juku Mountain, who will be able to find us?" The big-bellied man was full of confidence.
"Please, let me go. If you want money, just say my dad is rich and I'll ask him to give it to you..."
A boy wearing a light blue brocade robe with a dark pattern of Yuanbao flowers huddled at the back and spoke timidly with a heavy nasal tone after crying.
The men looked at each other and smiled, "Money?"
"You are just paid for by someone."
"Now that no one knows about it, why should I risk being caught by the government and ask your father for a ransom?!"
"Hurry up and stop crying! If you cry..."
The man raised the broadsword in his hand, held it high, and then chopped it down diagonally, full of threat.
"I'll chop off your hands and feet and throw you on the mountain to feed the wolves!"
Seeing this, everyone's expression froze.
The knife's light was as cold as ice, and it was stained with blood that had not been wiped off and had already turned black.
Even a brave woman like Qingjun couldn't help but take a step back.
Several children were crying and carrying the patched woman along as they walked up the mountain, pushing aside the half-man-high dry grass.
His hands were covered with fine cuts, but he endured the pain without crying out.
The pretty woman followed behind with Rong Chaoxi in her arms.
She looked around carefully, as if observing the terrain and memorizing the route.
After climbing for a quarter of an hour, Rong Chaoxi clearly felt that the person holding him was breathing heavily, and his shriveled chest was heaving violently.
Her face was as pale as thick snow in winter, and her originally lightly pink lips had turned purple.
She couldn't breathe.
Rong Chaoxi put his arms around the woman's neck and rested his cheek on her cold neck.
"Don't be afraid, I will protect you."
The little girl who had been so cheerful along the way suddenly quieted down. The pretty woman thought that she finally felt scared, so she spoke carefully to comfort her.
“Yeah…”
You should worry about yourself first.
Rong Chaoxi thought so.
The little guy placed his dirty little hands on the Tianchi point on the back of the woman's neck.
A faint spiritual energy slowly gathered in the palm of his hand.
The birds and animals in the forest seemed to have sensed something, and as if they had pressed the pause button, they stopped running to find food, rested on the branches and grass, and looked in the same direction.
A breeze suddenly arose, and the grass and trees swayed in the wind, as if welcoming it with joy.
The mountain veins that no one can see are like the tiny tendons and blood vessels in the human body. A fluid like light and fog gathers along the meridians towards one place.
Finally, it merged into the jade-colored twined branch mark between Rong Chaoxi's eyebrows, which appeared and disappeared from time to time.
The elegant woman heard a faint response and curled her lips slightly.
After all, he was just a little guy. After the fun and novelty wore off, he became afraid.
Fortunately, I was tricked today and was caught together.
Otherwise, I don’t know how the little guy would escape from this ghost cave where people are eaten without leaving any bones.
The terrain of Jukudong is complex, so you must remember the terrain well and take them away late at night.
Thinking of this, the elegant woman was suddenly stunned.
A second ago, she felt her breathing was difficult and her chest felt heavy as if a huge rock was pressing on it. She knew that her illness had recurred.
I tried to adjust my breathing, but in the next second, all the discomfort disappeared without a trace.
Even the fatigue in my legs from climbing was alleviated a lot.
She tried taking a few deep breaths, and they felt incredibly smooth, without the stinging sensation she'd felt before.
Could it be that the fresh mountain air cleared it up?
The elegant woman was just wondering and thinking about it when she heard a confused murmur from behind.
"Huh? Why is her forehead glowing green?"
Tao Gu, who followed closely behind, had her eyes dried by the breeze. She closed her eyes and rubbed them twice, and tears filled her eyes to moisten them.
She opened her eyes and saw a flash of green light on the forehead of the little girl in front of her.
She closed her eyes and shook her head, then opened them again and flashed again.
I closed my eyes again and opened them again, and they flashed again.
Four or five times in a row.
"Ma Zi, you... did you see it just now?" Aunt Tao turned her head and asked Ma Zi, who was half a step behind her.
"What?"
"That little girl's forehead is shining?"
"What's that flash?" Ma Zi leaned forward to look. "Nothing?"
"Hey! Look, she's gone again." Aunt Tao said excitedly while pulling Ma Zi.
"No, I didn't see anything." Ma Zi blinked.
"Impossible..." Aunt Tao became excited again, "It flashed again."
Ma Zi's face was full of question marks.
He stared intently, but saw nothing.
Because that was something Rong Chaoxi showed to Tao Gu on purpose.
"Hehe..." The little guy smiled with his mouth pouting.
Fun.
…
The mountains were covered with dense dead grass and leaves, and the road was rugged and steep. Several children almost fell down crying along the way.
His clothes were torn to shreds, and there were bloodstains on his hands and face. He looked very miserable.
Fortunately, they still had some strength left.
The bandits behind were panting as they climbed.
And the pretty lady in the middle was walking with such a strong momentum, carrying a big fat kid on her back, without even taking a breath.
As the elegant woman listened to the increasingly clear breathing sounds, doubts began to arise in her heart again.
How come I feel so good today?
