Hua Fushu was about to ask the shop owner and his wife and was about to go into the kitchen to look for them when Qin Youran stopped her. "I've learned everything. The person who abducted Ye Zelin and the other man was the third in command of Qingyun Mountain. Those people lying in the courtyard were the third in command's work. But what I don't understand is that you concealed your identities during this trip. Why did those bandits from Qingyun Mountain capture your husband? For money and rape?"
Hua Fushu rolled his eyes and said, "How would I know? If you ask me, who should I ask?"
Qin Youran didn't ask whether the bandits had captured Ye Zelin for money or sex, and turned to other matters: "I came here with Mu Qing. I asked him to look for you. Did you see him?"
Hua Fushu was very reluctant to speak: "No."
Qin Youran thought of Sanqiao and asked, "Where's Sanqiao? Isn't she with you?"
Hua Fushu said, "No, I was worried about Ye Zelin, so I came back to see her. I gave her the Cloud Piercing Sleeve Arrow, so she should be fine."
She looked up at Qin Youran and said, "Brother, I want to go to Qingyun Mountain to see if they have gone far."
Qin Youran naturally understood her thoughts. Two years ago, she swore that she would not marry Ye Zelin and ran away from the marriage. Two years later, she still married him and kept him in her heart.
He found the store's ox cart, put a silver note of one hundred taels in the kitchen, and left it to the store owner as payment for the cart. He drove the cart with Hua Fushu towards Qingyun Mountain, and made marks on the road to let Mu Qing know where he was going.
Sanqiao was still worried about Hua Fushu, so she suggested getting off the car to wait for him. Yu Xuanji was also worried about Yu Chisu and Ye Zelin, so they agreed and asked Lao Qiao to stop the car and wait for them.
Old Joe naturally understood their feelings and stopped the car.
Sanqiao hurriedly jumped out of the car and looked in the direction they came from, feeling nervous.
Yu Xuanji was also anxious.
A cup of tea passed, and the walkway with weeds and bushes on both sides was empty. Another cup of tea passed, and there was still no one. Sanqiao and others became more and more impatient and almost looked through the walkway.
About half a cup of tea later, a blurry silhouette of a car was seen driving down the aisle in the distance. Old Qiao was the first to react and exclaimed, "It's them! They've caught up! Sir, Miss Sanqiao, get in the car quickly!"
Sanqiao’s first reaction was not to get in the car, but to wonder if something had happened to Hua Fushu!
Seeing her standing there in a daze, the carriage gradually approached. Yu Xuanji pulled her onto the carriage. Lao Qiao whipped the horse and the wheels started rolling.
At this time, Sanqiao finally reacted. Looking at the cloud-piercing sleeve arrow on his forearm, he immediately became alert and prepared for battle.
She knew that Hua Fushu never did anything without confidence. The moment he knew Bai Xingjian's life experience, Hua Fushu had the idea of inciting Bai Xingjian to rebel.
When Hua Fushu and Yu Xuanji asked for the Han family's family token, she understood that Hua Fushu intended to tell Bai Xingjian about his life experience at this moment. Even if he couldn't make Bai Xingjian believe it, he could at least make Bai Xingjian doubt his life experience. As long as Bai Xingjian doubted it, her girl might not be in danger.
Even if her girl is in danger, she has the chips to save herself.
Therefore, her daughter did not make it in time and might have gone back to find Ye Zelin and Yu Chisu.
Even though she guessed that Hua Fushu might go back to look for someone, she was still worried about Hua Fushu's safety. Once they escaped the pursuit, she would definitely go back to find Hua Fushu.
Yu Xuanji lifted the curtain of the rear window and saw two assassins approaching them. The two cars were only about 15 feet apart. Yu Xuanji told Lao Qiao to speed up, but as soon as she finished speaking, the carriage driven by the assassins suddenly caught up with them, and one of the assassins jumped onto the roof of the car.
Sanqiao exclaimed, "There's someone on the roof of Uncle Qiao's car!"
Old Joe looked terrified, as if he had the strength to lift a tripod. He rushed out with his carriage like a soaring dragon, at incredible speed. Beads of sweat rolled down his cheeks and flew out with the wind.
He had an idea at this moment: he must not let anything happen to Yu Xuanji!
The road was not very flat, and the carriage was speeding like the wind, shaking and bumping violently. The people in the carriage held on to the window frames tightly to avoid collisions.
The assassin on the roof lay down, gritted his teeth, grabbed the edge of the hood with his hands, and slowly crawled towards the front of the car.
He snatched the reins from Old Joe and kicked him down. Old Joe screamed in panic and rolled into the bushes on the side of the road. His whole body was in pain and he could hear the sound of flesh being torn, accompanied by waves of stinging pain. He reached out to touch his hand and found it covered in blood. It turned out that a sharp dead wood had pierced his shoulder.
The assassin wanted to kill Yu Xuanji, so he lifted the door curtain and saw a girl of about sixteen or seventeen raising her hand towards him. Her frightened eyes reflected a hint of calmness, which was clearly due to fear but pretending to be calm.
Whether she was really calm or pretending to be calm, she and Yu Xuanji were going to die.
He drew the dagger from his waist, but a short arrow shot out from Sanqiao's hand and pierced his body. He looked down at the wound on his body, his face full of surprise, "You..."
The dagger in his hand fell, and Yu Xuanji reacted immediately and pushed the man off the carriage. The carriage was still speeding, and Yu Xuanji pulled the reins to stop the carriage.
A black shadow floated by, and before Yu Xuanji could see clearly, the black shadow disappeared. It was a person, a person riding a horse.
Mu Qingyang waved his hand, and the long sword flew through the wind and penetrated into the body of the assassin in horror.
The horse was frightened and galloped away, while in front was the carriage that Yu Xuanji was riding in. One carriage was galloping while the other was about to stop. If this continued, the two carriages would collide, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
Mu Qing climbed onto the front of the cart, grabbed the reins, and quickly pulled the reins to turn the horse's head away, changing the direction of the horse's movement.
Yu Xuanji stopped the car and looked into the carriage, but saw Sanqiao with a dull look in her eyes, without any life, as if she had been struck by some evil spirit.
Yu Xuanji called her three times, but she didn't respond at all.
Suddenly, she screamed, "I killed someone! I killed someone!"
Her tears fell.
She had never killed anyone before, this was her first time.
She never imagined that killing someone could be so horrible! She hoped she would never have this feeling again in her life.
She didn't want to kill anyone, but if she didn't kill anyone, she would be the one killed.
Sanqiao hugged Yu Xuanji and burst into tears as if trying to comfort her. Yu Xuanji knew that she was young and must be scared because it was her first time killing someone, so she comforted her with kind words and she felt better.
The two thought of Lao Qiao and went back to look for him. Sanqiao immediately saw Mu Qing, who was parked in another carriage on the side of the road. Mu Qing also looked at Sanqiao and walked over, "Sanqiao, are you okay?"
Sanqiao shook her head and said it was nothing, and asked why Mu Qing was here. In front of Yu Xuanji, Mu Qing naturally would not reveal Qin Youran's identity. He just briefly said that Hua Fushu had a conflict with the girl from the Lu family, and left without saying goodbye and went south. He and Qin Youran were worried and followed him.
Sanqiao believed what Mu Qing said. Qin Youran and her daughter were like siblings. Her daughter came to Yuezhou without saying goodbye. It was normal for Qin Youran to be worried about her daughter and come to find her.
