Zhao Yiming looked at the drizzling rain outside the window and felt inexplicably irritated. He couldn't concentrate on the book in his hand.
I simply put down the book and walked to the corridor, calling Chunxi to ask, "Is An An not back yet?"
Chun Xi bowed and said, "Sir, I haven't yet. It's raining and the roads are difficult to walk on. I'm afraid it will take a lot of time!"
Zhao Yiming waved his hand to let her go, then picked up the umbrella and walked towards the village entrance.
Unfortunately, after waiting at the village entrance for a long time, there was no sign of the donkey cart, and my anxiety grew stronger. I was just about to go back and pull the ox cart to look for the person.
He glanced up and suddenly saw a figure on horseback galloping through the rain and fog ahead. The rain was quite heavy, so Zhao Yiming could only squint his eyes to carefully identify the person on horseback.
The person was approaching very quickly, and when he got closer, Zhao Yiming finally recognized the person on horseback. It was Deng Xue. There was only Deng Xue, and there was no sign of Tian An at all.
At this moment, the man on horseback also recognized him and began to shout at him. The rain swallowed up the sound, and he could only vaguely hear the words: "Shilipo, col, help, girl."
Zhao Yiming's mind went blank, and his actions were faster than his thoughts. He dropped his umbrella and ran forward.
Deng Xue shouted all the way, and quickly came to Zhao Yiming before stopping her horse and dismounting.
Zhao Yiming did not delay and left a sentence: "Go back to the village to find someone for help and report to the police." Then he mounted his horse, turned his head and rushed towards Shilipo.
Tian An in the woods climbed over a hill and used the cover of the hill to enter the space.
As soon as she entered the space, she glanced at the clock and took off all the clothes that were wet by the rain. Winter clothes soaked by the rain were not only heavy to wear, but also sticky and uncomfortable.
After picking out some underwear in the clothing area and casually putting on a home skirt, Tian An went to the food area to find something to eat.
After grabbing some bread and eight-treasure porridge to fill her stomach and a bottle of water, Tian An went to the medicine area to get some cold medicine. She had been caught in the rain today, and if she hadn't taken precautions, she would have suffered if she had gotten sick.
I don't know how Deng Xue is doing. She must be exhausted from running in the rain! She has to go back quickly to get her some medicine!
After staying in the space for a while, Tian An checked the time. An hour had already passed. Those people had either gone far away to look for her, or had returned after failing to find her. In short, they should not be around anymore.
Tian An looked at the wet clothes on the ground with some helplessness. In addition to the land where things can be grown and change, there is also a pharmacy where drug production and research can change.
As for the rest, she would leave in the same condition she came in, so she would have to wear wet clothes when she got out. After all, the clothes in the dimension were different from those in this era.
Tian An endured the discomfort, put on her clothes, and carefully slipped out of the space. As soon as she came out, a cold wind happened to blow towards her, which made her shiver.
Night had already fallen, and the temperature in the mountains was extremely low. Tian An shivered from the cold. She turned around and wanted to retreat back into the space.
But then she thought of Deng Xue. That girl must still be waiting for her to come back and save her! And Xiaokang, knowing that she had been robbed, the little guy must be so worried!
No, she couldn't stay in this space any longer. She had to find a way out. Besides, judging by the time, her rescuers should have arrived by now! She had to go out and ask for help.
Tian An was about to go back the way he came in when he heard a voice coming from that direction. Listening carefully, he found it was the voice of those criminals.
"Brother, what should we do? There are so many yamen runners coming to the exit."
"Brother, let's not look for that damn girl anymore. Let's run away!"
"Yeah! Big brother, let's run away!"
The gang leader was getting impatient with the noise and lowered his voice, "Shut up, everyone! Are you afraid the police don't know we're here? Calm down, everyone!"
There are officials outside the forest now, and we can't escape at all. Our best plan now is to find that girl before they do and use her as a hostage to buy a glimmer of hope."
Tian An was some distance away from them and could only vaguely hear a few words like "yamen runner, escape, hostage, chance of survival". He guessed the meaning pretty much.
As she had expected, her rescuers had arrived. However, they were blocking the exit, so she had to wait until they left before she could leave. She didn't want to go any deeper into the woods. If she went too far, her rescuers might not be able to find her.
After weighing the pros and cons, Tian An decided to hide in the space first. If these people were looking for her, they would definitely have to go into the woods. Once they cleared the way, she could get out.
"Crack..."
Tian An was just about to hide in the space, but because his feet were numb from squatting, he accidentally stepped on a branch on the ground.
The rain stopped at this time, and the woods were extremely quiet. The crisp sound of branches breaking was amplified infinitely, and it was extremely abrupt.
"There she is!"
Tian An reacted, endured the numbness in his feet, turned around and ran.
"Hurry up and chase her, don't let her run away."
Hearing the footsteps chasing him closely behind him, Tian An's heart was about to jump out of his throat.
The woods were pitch black. She didn't care about being afraid and kept running forward without looking back. Gradually, the sounds behind her became quieter and quieter. Tian An ran for a while before stopping to catch her breath.
I felt some pain in my feet and looked down. Damn, my shoes had slipped off without me noticing.
Before she could think about it, she heard several voices behind her.
One of the criminals took her shoe and said, "Hurry, her shoe fell in front, she must be nearby, hurry up and look for her."
Tian An was startled and was about to continue running, but suddenly someone covered his mouth from behind and pulled him backwards.
Before she could struggle, a familiar voice came from above her head: "An An, it's me."
Hearing Zhao Yiming's voice, Tian An breathed a sigh of relief.
"Stay here and don't move. I'll go lead them away first, and then come over to take you out." Zhao Yiming whispered in Tian An's ear.
Tian An pulled down his hand that was covering his mouth and gently warned him, "Be careful."
After that, Zhao Yiming left her. No one knew how he managed it, but a moment later, she heard movement in the other direction. Sure enough, the criminals were chasing after them.
After seeing the bad guys leave, Tian An first breathed a sigh of relief, but then began to worry about Zhao Yiming.
Fortunately, Zhao Yiming came back soon after, along with her lost shoes.
After bending down to help Tian An put on her shoes, Zhao Yiming turned around and squatted in front of her. Then, just like when they first met, he carried her out of the forest.
Tian An felt a little dizzy and hurriedly took out the medicine from the space and put it in the backpack beside her. The medicine was prepared in the space before, and was wrapped in small packages with oil paper.
While I still have the energy, I quickly arrange things.
"I have medicine in my bag. The marked ones are Deng Xue's, and the ones without are mine..."
Hearing Tian An's voice getting smaller and smaller, Zhao Yiming quickened his pace.
