A witch who doesn't look like a witch.
Shen Shuyi looked at him warily, "Don't rush to act. You and I are both seriously injured and at the bottom of the cliff. Why don't we work together to resist the beasts in the mountains and leave this place before fighting to the death."
Xie Xinghe suppressed his murderous aura. He tried to stand up and meditate, but he fell back with a muffled groan.
Shen Shuyi gloated, "I didn't expect that Master Xie of the Canglan Sword Sect would have this day."
Xie Xinghe dragged his limp leg away, keeping a distance from her.
Shen Shuyi took healing medicine and was able to walk well. Xie Xinghe thought she had internal injuries and didn't have much strength left, but she still managed to hunt a wild rabbit.
As dusk fell, she cleaned the rabbit by the river and then returned to the tree to build a fire and roast the rabbit.
The meat is sizzling and the aroma is everywhere.
While eating the roasted rabbit leg, she glanced at Xie Xinghe, who was meditating with his eyes closed not far away. "Hey, Young Master, aren't you hungry?"
"Call me Saint Sister, and I will show mercy and bring you food."
Xie Xinghe didn't even look at her.
Chen Shuyi didn't bother to make things difficult for himself.
After she had eaten and drunk her fill, she would spread some hay on the treetop and rest her eyes at night.
The forest is particularly dangerous late at night, with the roars of wild beasts coming one after another.
Xie Xinghe opened his eyes, looked around, and his gaze finally fixed on the witch not far away.
The woman in front of the campfire was sleeping soundly with a long whip in her arms. I don’t know what she was dreaming about, but she even had an innocent smile on her face.
He pulled the corner of his mouth, his expression was cold, the frustration and depression from falling off the cliff with the witch sank into his dantian. He took a deep breath to adjust his mood and continued to meditate to heal his wounds.
…
The next day, Chen Shuyi had 66 to help keep watch, and he felt much better after a full night's sleep.
As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Xie Xinghe standing up with a sword in his hand, apparently intending to leave the forest.
Shen Shuyi followed him down the mountain. Xie Xinghe turned around and looked at her, and saw that the witch blinked at him with a pure and kind look.
"I advise you not to act rashly."
Shen Shuyi didn't care, "Are you afraid that I will attack you from behind? At worst, you can just follow me."
"Don't think I'm happy to go with you. We're just collaborating to get out of this deep forest. I'm not happy to see you hypocrites."
Xie Xinghe had a blank expression on his face. "The people in the Demon Cult are very cunning. Who knows what you are planning?"
Shen Shuyi snorted coldly and followed.
There are many poisonous insects and ferocious beasts in the deep mountains, so even martial artists have to be cautious.
After walking for most of the day, she and Xie Xinghe finally saw a small village at the foot of the mountain.
Chen Shuyi didn't waste any words and went his separate ways with Xie Xinghe.
After walking a distance away, she turned around and waved in the direction of Xie Xinghe.
"Thank you, Master. I still have your sword tassel. If you want it, be polite next time we meet. Don't yell at me. I'm scared."
The girl was wearing a bright red dress and a veil, but her eyes were so big and bright that it was hard to ignore them.
Xie Xinghe's expression became even colder.
As soon as Shen Shuyi came down the mountain, she found a place to take a shower and eat. After packing up simply, she headed towards the bustling town.
As soon as she entered the city, a middle-aged man and woman blocked her way on the street.
"Tui'er, you're so bold as to elope with someone!"
"You put your parents' faces on the ground and stepped on them. Everyone in the village is stabbing me in the back, you unfilial daughter!"
"Go home with mom!"
Chen Shuyi didn't understand what was going on, so the tall and strong men and women from the village surrounded her and tried to drag her away.
"66, what are their origins?"
Although she was able to get rid of the people, she didn't know the background of these two criminals, and other girls might be harmed.
[It's a human trafficker. Not only do human traffickers exist today, but human traffickers were also rampant in ancient times.]
Shen Shuyi didn't fight back immediately, and was immediately grabbed by the villains on both sides.
Since this was on the street, people passing by immediately gathered around to watch the fun.
"What's going on?"
"Is she really your daughter?"
"Even though she's wearing a veil, her features don't look like her at all."
"Good shoots have grown out of bad bamboo."
The village woman angrily said, "This bitch stole the family's money, dressed up like this, and ran away with someone."
"This is our family matter, don't worry about it."
As they spoke, the two men looked at each other, covered the girl's mouth, and dragged her away.
Shen Shuyi was pushed onto a carriage by the criminals, her hands and feet were tied, and her veil was torn off and stuffed with cloth.
The moment the veil was torn off, the ferocious man stared blankly.
"My goodness, this little girl is so beautiful."
The vicious woman glared at him and said, "Watch out, don't touch me. This way, we can present the goods to the master above us. If the master is happy, he will definitely be rewarded with money from you. Then, when we get to Yihong Courtyard, we will have as many beauties as we want."
About an hour later, Shen Shuyi was transported to a farm in the suburbs by a carriage and then taken in blindfolded.
"Be good to me, and I'll send you off to enjoy life in a few days."
"Don't make any noise. No one will come even if you scream your throat out."
"Eat your meal quickly." The door was closed with a creak.
Fortunately, the restraints on her hands and feet were untied. Shen Shuyi moved her hands and feet. She looked around and saw that there were several other little girls in the small room whose hands and feet were tied like her.
Their eyes were red, probably because they were tired of crying. They hurriedly picked up the steamed buns in the bowl and started to eat them.
Chen Shuyi did not eat the steamed buns, but stood in front of the small window with a horizontal bar. He saw a dozen bandit-like people in the yard eating meat and drinking wine, and talking dirty words.
