The man, clutching the stone, watched the people surrounding him warily, pondering which direction would be easier to break through.
But a voice called out from behind: "Yi Shuihan, why are you running? Have you lost your mind? Can't you recognize people?"
The three characters “Yi Shui Han” sounded very familiar.
The man paused for a moment, then turned around.
A beautiful and charming woman walked towards them, her eyes filled with nine parts surprise and one part reproach.
He was startled.
"I think I've seen this girl before."
As the woman approached, a faint scent wafted over. The man tilted his head and sniffed, finding the scent all too familiar.
It was as if he had been by my side day and night, inseparable.
Who in this world could be so close to him?
The man suddenly realized something and blurted out, "You're my wife, aren't you?"
Xiao Qingyin paused in her steps.
What does this question mean?
Doesn't he recognize people?
She carefully examined Yi Shuihan's face and noticed that his pupils were slightly unfocused, and he could no longer see any of his usual clarity and wisdom.
A sense of foreboding washed over me.
The next moment, Yi Shuihan threw himself into her arms, hugged her waist, and said pitifully, "Wife, why did you take so long to come? Someone was trying to force me to do the wedding ceremony, I was almost scared to death."
Xiao Qingyin: "!!!"
My first reaction: This person has really become an idiot.
Second reaction: There are still people who are so ignorant of their own mortality that they want to force Yi Shuihan to have a wedding ceremony.
The last person who did that is still locked up in the dungeon.
As Yi Shuihan felt the familiar touch, his confidence grew even stronger.
Sure enough, this fragrant, soft, and beautiful woman was his wife.
So it nuzzled against Xiao Qingyin's shoulder like a cat.
Xiao Qingyin: "..."
This guy seems to have become even more clingy since he turned dazed?
Just then, a flurry of footsteps and noise broke out.
"He's over here! I see him!"
Xiao Qingyin turned her head and saw a group of people who looked like villagers walking towards them.
Yi Shuihan was startled and hid behind her, trying to conceal his tall figure.
"Wife," he whimpered, "they forced me to marry them."
Xiao Qingyin gently patted his hand to comfort him.
"Don't be afraid, you won't be arrested."
As Zhang the hunter and the villagers approached, they saw Yi Shuihan hiding behind a woman, surrounded by several guards. They couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
Could it be that this man's family has come looking for him?
I hesitated for a moment, unsure how to begin.
The villagers, however, didn't care about anything else and shouted at Xiao Qingyin, "Quickly return our girl's groom, she's waiting to get married."
Xiao Qingyin raised an eyebrow: "There is no groom here, only my fiancé."
The villagers were taken aback and all looked at Zhang the hunter.
"Old Zhang, didn't you say this foolish child had no parents and was all alone here? How come he has a fiancée?"
This fiancée doesn't look like an ordinary person.
Upon hearing this, Zhang the hunter's face turned as red as an eggplant.
Those words were merely fabricated by him to silence public opinion and ensure the marriage could proceed.
Unexpectedly, a shrew appeared out of nowhere and ruined his daughter's marriage.
The chickens, ducks, and sheep have all been slaughtered, and the wine has been served. How can we not perform the ancestral worship ceremony?
Zhang the hunter was truly unwilling to accept this.
The man had only mentioned a rabbit figurine before, but never his fiancée. How could he know if the woman was lying?
He gritted his teeth and said loudly, "You woman, stop talking nonsense! How did my grandson-in-law become your fiancé? You wouldn't happen to be trying to kidnap him because he's good-looking, would you? You'd better give him back right now, or else..."
He turned to look at the villagers and asked, "What will we do if anyone dares to rob any of our villagers?"
The villagers raised their arms and shouted: "Let us show you how tough the fists of Hewan Village are!"
Hunter Zhang said with a stern face, "Did you hear that? Don't expect to take people from us."
They outnumber us several times over; if it really came down to a fight, we'd definitely win.
Xiao Qingyin smiled slightly.
He took out a wooden whistle from his purse and blew it.
The guards who were searching nearby heard the whistle and all rushed over.
In the blink of an eye, Xiao Qingyin's group grew from a dozen people to several hundred.
The villagers: "..."
Zhang the Hunter: "..."
This woman has absolutely no sense of martial ethics!
They only had a few dozen people, but she managed to summon hundreds.
Isn't this bullying the weak with numbers?
When the villagers saw that Xiao Qingyin's people all had knives at their waists and arrows on their backs, exuding an extremely fierce aura, they knew that they were no ordinary people.
They might not even be able to save their lives.
They came to a wedding, not to die.
So they all trembled and urged Zhang the hunter, "Since he's someone's fiancé, you should give him back to her, and our girl can find another groom."
Zhang the hunter was extremely unwilling.
Unfortunately, circumstances are beyond our control; we can't win even if we try to take it from them.
He could only bow and admit his mistake: "I'm sorry, this old man's eyes are playing tricks on him. He has mistaken me for someone else. This is not my granddaughter's husband. Please take him away, young lady."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the girl caught up with him.
She had fallen countless times along the way; her hair was disheveled, her hairpins and ornaments were nowhere to be found, and her red wedding dress was torn to shreds by thorns.
Upon seeing Zhang the hunter, she asked breathlessly, "Grandpa, have you found Brother Erniu?"
Erniu is the name that Zhang the hunter gave to Yi Shuihan these past two days.
Hunter Zhang shook his head: "Erniu has gone home, and we'll never see him again."
The girl glanced around and spotted Yi Shuihan hiding behind Xiao Qingyin. She exclaimed in surprise, "Grandpa, Brother Erniu is over there!"
