After leaving the swamp, Yun Qianran found several milk fruit trees based on the wild survival experience she had accumulated abroad.
She remembered that this wild fruit looked like white pearls, tasted sour and sweet, and had a strong milky aroma.
When her parents took her out for picnics as a child, she liked to look for this kind of wild fruit.
Yun Qianran stood at a distance and took a look. There were no poisonous snakes or ferocious beasts lurking, so she could pick them with confidence.
She approached the milk fruit tree and was about to raise her hand when she suddenly found two hairs stuck on a leaf.
"This is," she picked up the hair and looked at it carefully, monkey hair?
There are monkeys in this place?
If there were, the number of monkeys that could survive so deep in the primeval forest would definitely not be just one or two.
It is most likely a huge group of monkeys, otherwise they would not be able to deal with jackals, tigers and leopards!
...
...
There was a strange light in Yun Qianran's eyes. If it was really a group of monkeys, then this area might be their activity area.
In general, wild beasts attach great importance to their own territories. If any foreign creatures invade, they will definitely be chased and beaten, just like the black bear before.
So if those kidnappers were really deep in this forest, they might have encountered the monkeys?
It is more likely that there was a conflict between them!
Of course, to know whether this is true or not, we have to find the monkey group and see for ourselves.
Thinking of this, Yun Qianran did not delay any longer. She quickly picked all the milk apples and returned to the swamp.
"I thought my wife didn't want me anymore." Zhuang Tingyun chuckled and teased.
Yun Qianran placed the milk fruit in her pocket in front of him and said, "Eat it yourself. After you finish eating, we will set off."
"Let's go?" Zhuang Tingyun's voice rose two notches.
He looked Yun Qianran up and down, "Madam, do you want to murder your husband?"
"But it's worth dying for me to have my wife accompany me on the road to the underworld."
Yun Qianran choked on a milk fruit in her throat. She coughed hard twice, glared at him and scolded him, "What good are you thinking? Who wants to die with you?"
"Isn't it?" Zhuang Tingyun felt disappointed.
“Yes, yes, if you want to die so much, just walk back a few steps after eating and jump down. I guarantee you’ll die completely and even your body won’t be found.” Yun Qianran responded speechlessly.
Zhuang Tingyun was embarrassed. "Forget it. I just want to die on my wife. I am not used to any other way of dying."
“Get out!” Yun Qianran raised her little fist and pretended to hit.
"I take back what I said!" Zhuang Tingyun held his head and begged for mercy.
Yun Qianran snorted and began to eat handfuls of milk fruit. "This is what I found. You are not allowed to eat it."
"No, I'm worried that I'll be too hungry to have enough strength and won't be able to satisfy my wife." Zhuang Tingyun also started to grab the food.
The two of them fought over it, and soon all the milk fruits were in their stomachs.
Yun Qianran looked at his legs and frowned, "Seriously, you should wait for me here."
"Madam hasn't told me where you are going." Zhuang Tingyun was waiting for her to set off.
Yun Qianran took out the two monkey hairs she had just seen and said, "I suspect there is a group of monkeys nearby. We may be able to use them to find the kidnappers."
"Madam was planning to abandon me." Zhuang Tingyun's eyes were dim, and he looked at her as if he was looking at a scumbag.
Yun Qianran:? ?
"Be normal!"
Zhuang Tingyun frowned and smiled, "It's just a minor injury. I'm not that weak. Besides, after taking the pills Madam gave me, I clearly feel more energetic than before. I will definitely not hold Madam back."
"Then let's go together. Let's make it clear first that we must not alarm those monkeys." Yun Qianran explored the way along the fallen monkey hair.
About half an hour later, they found a group of monkeys.
They stayed on a big tree more than 20 meters away from the monkey group, watching, "It turned out to be white-haired monkeys, at least more than a hundred of them, with one monkey king, not a scattered group of monkeys, and..."
Yun Qianran saw the anger on the monkey king's face and the rag under its feet, "They have indeed come into contact with humans."
Yun Qianran didn’t think that ordinary forest explorers could go so deep into the primeval forest and make the Monkey King so angry. It was most likely that they were the ones who kidnapped the three babies.
"Monkeys are very vengeful creatures, especially wild monkeys." Zhuang Tingyun whispered in her ear.
"Yes, since those guys have had a dispute with the monkeys, the monkeys will definitely retaliate. We just need to wait here."
Wouldn't it be more efficient for more than a hundred monkeys to find people than for just two of them?
"You find a secluded place to rest first, I'll keep an eye on them." In order to avoid being left behind by the monkeys, Yun Qianran didn't want to miss a moment.
"Don't worry, ma'am. Once the monkeys decide to take revenge, they will definitely come in groups. We will be awakened even if we are asleep. There is no need to worry about missing their actions." Zhuang Tingyun stroked her hair and coaxed her gently.
Along the way, he had been observing her emotions. Although she didn't keep muttering, he could see that she was actually very nervous.
"Madam, you should go and have a rest. I'll keep an eye on them for you. Otherwise, even if we find them, I'm afraid we won't have the energy to save them."
"You don't have to persuade me." Yun Qianran shook her head.
Zhuang Tingyun frowned, but finally stopped trying to persuade her. He stood quietly beside her and said, "I'll stay with you, Madam."
The two of them were like two wooden stakes, standing there until the sky became completely dark.
"The monkeys are moving. A little monkey just ran back from outside. I don't know what he said to the monkey king."
Yun Qianran stared at the monkeys in front of her, "Let's go around their habitat first, see which direction they are going, and then follow them."
They quietly came to the edge of the monkeys' territory and saw the monkey king leaving with fifty or sixty strong white-haired monkeys.
“Follow me!”
The monkeys walked and stopped along the way, sometimes breaking wooden sticks, sometimes picking up stones, and sometimes collecting the feces of some large animals and some small fruits wrapped in sharp thorns.
Seeing their actions, Yun Qianran and the others became more certain that they were going to take revenge!
And there is another problem. Sending out fifty or sixty adult monkeys at one time is enough to show that they are dealing with quite a few people, otherwise it would not be worth their seriousness.
"What should we do if there are many kidnappers?" Yun Qianran asked in a low voice.
She wasn't afraid of crowds, but she was afraid that those guys would threaten them with their three babies.
"Then let's attack together with the monkeys!" A dark light flashed in Zhuang Tingyun's eyes.
Let the monkeys hold those guys back, and they will launch a surprise attack.
"good!"
The two men tried their best to conceal their breath and followed the monkey group all the way. After about two hours, the monkey group stopped.
Yun Qianran looked ahead and saw a small wooden house about fifty meters ahead of them.
“It’s them!”
"Madam, look carefully." Zhuang Tingyun pointed to the front of the wooden house.
Yun Qianran's pupils contracted. These guys were so brave!
What did she see? There were three dead monkeys hanging upside down in front of the wooden house!
And that’s not all, a little further inside, close to the wooden house, there are two blazing bonfires, on top of which are two skinned white-haired monkeys being turned over and roasted.
"Beast!" Yun Qianran lowered her eyes with boundless anger. She finally understood why the Monkey King hated those people on the opposite side so much.
But at the same time she was angry, she was also worried. These guys were so cruel to the monkeys, so what about her three babies?
“Squeak, squeak, squeak!”
Before she could think about it, the monkeys in front launched an attack.
Unexpectedly, fifty or sixty white-haired monkeys did not rush forward.
The first monkeys to rush out were those holding stones and animal feces, followed closely by those holding thorny fruits. After they had thrown away all the things in their hands, they all retreated, allowing the monkeys holding long sticks to rush over.
Compared with the perfect coordination of the monkeys, the kidnappers who were attacked by the monkeys were in chaos.
The war between man and monkey was about to break out. Yun Qianran moved her body and wanted to rush out. Zhuang Tingyun saw the situation and quickly held her down. "Madam, don't worry. There seems to be someone else in the room."
His eyes were fixed on the wooden house, but his pupils suddenly shrank the next second, "It's actually him!"
Du Cunjin!
"Who?" Yun Qianran was curious. She also saw the figure that appeared in the wooden house. His hair and beard were all white, but he walked very briskly. He was a master, definitely a master!
"Du Cunjin is the top fighter of the Jiang family in the imperial capital. Madam, you must be careful of him later." Zhuang Tingyun's eyes were solemn. It seemed that the Jiang family in the imperial capital were really coming for him, and they had implicated Yun Qianran and the three babies for no reason.
"Squeak, squeak, squeak!" When the Monkey King saw Du Cunjin's figure, hatred immediately burst out in his eyes. It was this guy who kidnapped five of his fellow tribesmen and skinned them and roasted them. He deserved to die!
It called out to the white-haired monkeys around it, "Squeak, squeak, squeak!"
Hearing its rapid and loud urging, five strong white-haired monkeys gathered towards it, dragging wooden sticks.
"The Monkey King is very smart. It seems that I have suffered losses at his hands." Yun Qianran watched the battlefield between the Monkey King and Du Cunjin.
"Now, let's go from the back!" Zhuang Tingyun pulled her around to the back of the wooden house.
"There are two more people in the house." Yun Qianran hid under the window behind the wooden house and raised two fingers to Zhuang Tingyun.
"I'm going to save the three babies, and you go and capture the man." She looked at him and spoke silently.
Zhuang Tingyun nodded seriously and replied silently: "Be careful."
Yun Qianran listened carefully. Judging from the noise, the two people in the room should be walking back and forth, perhaps changing their angles to watch the man-monkey battle outside.
She threw herself into it, and based on the route the two people had taken, she determined the scene inside the cabin. After sketching it out in her mind several times, she stood up and swooped in through the window.
"Who is it?" The two kidnappers turned around hurriedly when they heard the voice.
But what greeted them was Zhuang Tingyun's huge fist.
At this time, Yun Qianran had already untied the three babies, pinched their mouths, and fed each of them a pill wrapped in gold foil.
"Babies, wake up!" After feeding the three babies the medicine, she massaged them for a while to make sure they had no organic injuries, only then did she feel relieved.
Du Cunjin heard the noise inside the house, left the Monkey King behind and rushed in, "The dignified owner of the village actually teamed up with a bunch of beasts. If this gets out, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
"It's better than some rats who only do dirty work behind the scenes!" Zhuang Tingyun retorted.
Du Cunjin's eyebrows were filled with anger, "Since you are here, you don't have to leave!"
"Hiss, hiss, hiss." As he opened his mouth, a group of colorful little snakes suddenly crawled into the wooden house.
Zhuang Tingyun's expression darkened instantly. "Does your Jiang family not want to exist anymore?"
"Master Zhuang, you should take care of yourself. If you can go back alive today, tell me this again!" Du Cunjin didn't take him seriously at all.
He moved his gaze and saw Yun Qianran standing next to the three babies. "As expected, she is the woman that the young master values. She is indeed extraordinary."
"Let me introduce myself solemnly. My last name is Du Cunjin, and I am the personal bodyguard of Jiang Wen, the eldest son of the Jiang family in the imperial capital.
I am honored to tell you that you have been chosen by our eldest young master. I have investigated your identity. You are the orphan of the Yun family in Ancheng. Not only is you a notorious slut, but you also have two sons.
With your status, I would say that you will never be able to marry into a top-tier wealthy family, but now is your chance."
When he said this, Du Cunjin paused. He was waiting for Yun Qianran to speak first.
However, he was disappointed, because Yun Qianran looked at him as if he was a mentally retarded person.
"Are you done?" Yun Qianran's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and she was about to take action after she finished speaking!
Du Cunjin couldn't hold back his face and snorted coldly, "Don't be shameless. Being valued by the young master is a blessing that many women can't even dream of!
Now all I need is for you to nod and follow me to the imperial capital honestly. Given how much the young master likes you, I won’t marry you as his principal wife, but I can at least guarantee that you can be his eighteenth mistress.
When the young master gets tired of playing with you, the breakup fee he'll give you will definitely be enough to keep you well-fed and well-clothed for the rest of your life!"
Yun Qianran sneered, "It's impossible to marry into a top-notch wealthy family? I am a wealthy family myself, why should I marry into one?"
"Also, when you said this, have you ever thought about Mr. Ting's feelings? In China, is there any richer family than him?"
Du Cunjin moved his lips, "It didn't exist before, but it will exist in the future!"
Anyway, he didn't believe that Zhuang Tingyun could escape today.
"Hehe, you're just a coward, hiding in the gutter and giving orders, and you dare to compete with me, the banker?" Zhuang Tingyun approached him with a sneer.
"Is it fun to show off your eloquence? If you really have the guts, walk out of this place alive today, otherwise the most powerful and most luxurious young man in China will definitely be our eldest master!" Du Cunjin's face was grim. Since he had taken action, he would never let Zhuang Tingyun escape.
"What a fool's dream!" Yun Qianran finally woke up as she looked at the three babies in her arms whose eyelids were twitching.
"Hmm..." Nuan Bao made a sound in his throat, opened his eyes and looked at her, "Mom, where am I?"
She was still a little confused. Wasn't she playing a mirror maze with her two brothers? But it didn't look like this place.
"Huh?" Du Cunjin looked at her suddenly, "What did you do?"
He frowned deeply. How could the little girl wake up? It was impossible. The medicine he gave her was enough for at least three days. How could she wake up so quickly?
"Want to know?"
Yun Qianran held the three babies and came to Zhuang Tingyun, "Take good care of them."
She stuffed the three babies into his hands, turned around and stepped forward, appearing in front of Du Cunjin in an instant, "Go ask the King of Hell!"
