Chapter 14 Silly Second Brother
A great country?
Bai Li tilted his head back and dug out from his memory that this was the Western Tartar Kingdom, the Mongolian Kingdom.
The small countries around here have a population of only a few hundred thousand, including the Great Zhou where they are located.
Simon, with its millions of people and vast territory, can certainly be called a great country.
The Meng Kingdom was adjacent to Qianzhou of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which was also the place of exile.
Bai Li secretly made up his mind to rescue his second brother when he arrived at the place of exile.
Her second brother, who was two years older than her, grew up at his maternal grandfather's house. The three siblings only saw him once a year at the end of the year. The second brother always had a playful look on his face and liked to chase her and play with her.
I remember when she was six years old, she was bullied by a dozen kids older than her on the street. He immediately protected her behind him like a hen protecting her chicks, and in the end, fists rained down on his head and body.
The second brother was beaten black and blue, but not a single punch landed on her.
She was crying so hard at that time, and the second brother wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and smiled: "It's okay, brother. As long as you don't hurt me, it's fine."
Her second brother, who appears to be cold and serious to the outside world but smiles like a fool to her, had better be a human being and spare her second brother's life, otherwise she will kill him with fire!
They haven't reached Guizhou yet, so there's no rush to save her second brother, but she can go and take over the gold mine first.
Yuzhou is more than 500 kilometers away from here. If she runs at full speed, she can go back and forth in one day and one night.
She waved to Li Dong to talk to her side. When Li Dong heard that she was leaving, he immediately shook his head like a rattle.
"No, there won't be enough people at the next Xiangzhou Post Station to fool them."
"How long will it take to get to Xiangzhou?"
"At the current speed, if we don't stop to play, we'll arrive in two days."
“That’s enough!”
"What?"
"I mean, two days is enough for me to run a small errand."
"Then...what if you don't come back?"
"You think you can stop me?!"
Facing the female devil's sinister eyes, Li Dongtou shook out his afterimage.
"That's it! I'm just being polite. Do you really think I'm giving you face?"
Li Dong felt aggrieved, but there was nothing he could do.
It would be best if the female devil doesn’t come back, then he can vent his anger!
"Here, here are a hundred taels of silver. Buy a new pair of shoes for your brothers!"
Li Dong smiled instantly, happily took the banknote and kissed it.
"Boss, you have to come back in two days, otherwise I can't hold you back!"
"I understand. I'll find an excuse for my parents."
"no……"
"This is an order, not a negotiation!"
"Okay, okay!"
For the sake of the banknote.
"Remember, don't let Ma Dehai know that I'm leaving, otherwise..."
The tender white little fist shook, and Li Dong immediately jumped away reflexively, nodding like a chicken pecking at rice.
Bai Li told his mother and grandmother that he was tired of staying in the carriage and wanted to go out for a walk.
After repeatedly assuring that he would not go far, Bai Li quietly left the team.
…
In a dungeon far away in Mongolia, a young man was trapped in a water dungeon, his head lowered and his body motionless, and it was unknown whether he was dead or alive.
His naked body was covered with dense scars.
New and old wounds crisscrossed his body, leaving him covered in wounds, which showed how much torture he had suffered before.
Suddenly, there was a commotion at the cell door. A gruff female voice shouted, "How dare you stop Princess Helan? Come, drag him away and feed him to the wolves!"
"No, Princess, please spare me! It was the Second Prince who ordered that no one else be allowed to approach... Princess, please spare me!"
The man guarding the door was dragged away, and several women came in, surrounded by a girl in exotic clothing.
The girl walked straight to the dungeon. When she saw the young man whose life or death was unknown, her eyes began to turn red and she gave orders to her servants in a trembling voice.
"Quick, put him down!"
“Be gentle!”
"Witch doctor, witch doctor come quickly!"
"Princess, let's take him away from here first."
After a period of chaos and confusion, Bai Erlang's mind regained some clarity and he tried hard to open his swollen and heavy eyelids.
"Princess, he's awake!"
There was a scraping sound in his ears, and Bai Erlang felt dizzy. His eyes, which had just opened a crack, closed again.
"What's going on? Witch doctor, witch doctor!"
“Here it comes, here it comes!”
After another flurry of activity, the witch doctor wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Reporting to Her Majesty, this man was seriously injured. He's lucky to have survived, but he needs to be taken good care of. As for what happens next, it all depends on his luck!"
"Witch doctor, thank you for your trouble."
"My Lady, I don't deserve this.
It is my honor to serve you."
Princess?
Bai Erlang heard this name in a daze, and then his eyes went dark and he lost consciousness again.
Bai Li ran all the way according to the sketch given by Li Dong.
People passing by only felt a gust of wind blowing by, and it passed by without even seeing its shadow.
We ran from morning to dark and finally arrived at our destination, Lion Mountain in Yuzhou.
She just approached the col and "whoosh whoosh whoosh"
Several cold arrows shot at her, and she rolled on the ground a few times to narrowly avoid them.
"Go over there and see if there's anyone there!"
"Spread out in an umbrella formation and search carefully. If you make a mistake, your life will be in danger!"
"yes!"
The footsteps of several groups of people separated, and one group walked straight towards her!
What a strong defense!
Bai Li didn't dare to be careless anymore. He took a breath and used his luck as fast as lightning to leave here again. He found a big tree and jumped onto a branch.
Suddenly, something sharp hit my back and a deep, cold voice was heard.
"If you don't want to be discovered, just stay still."
Damn, she was still careless!
I didn’t expect there was someone hiding in the tree!
A group of soldiers passed under the tree, and Bai Li didn't dare to breathe.
"Strange, there was clearly movement here just now."
"It could be a roe deer, a wolf, or something like that. Our boss is just making a fuss out of nothing."
"If someone hears you talking nonsense and spreads it to the higher-ups, the boss and we will be in trouble!"
…
After the people walked away, Bai Li moved!
Unexpectedly, the person behind him was very skilled. The two of them exchanged a few moves on the tree branch, but Bai Li still couldn't take the man down.
I was afraid that the night would be long and would bring more trouble, so I wanted to end it quickly.
The opponent seemed to have the same idea. For a moment, both of them used all their skills, with the same goal, to take down the opponent as soon as possible.
After a few more moves, Bai Li got angry and disappeared in an instant. While his opponent was stunned, he punched him in the face.
“Ah…”
The scream only managed to escape half of the melody before its mouth was covered.
Hearing footsteps in the distance, Bai Li gave up the idea of knocking the person out.
"Look carefully, the sound just now was over here!"
"yes!"
At this time, the moon climbed up to the treetops. Under the hazy moonlight, several soldiers from the Great Zhou Kingdom used their swords to push aside the bushes and grass and carefully checked. In the end, they did not even let go of the rabbit holes.
"Report! Nothing found here!"
“There’s nothing here!”
These people happened to be gathered under a big tree. From where they were standing, they could spot Bai Li and the others as soon as they looked up.
