Even the middle-aged man who offered the price three taels couldn't help but look behind him.
Seeing that the bidder was clearly nothing more than a frail little girl, his eyes, which were not big in the first place, inevitably carried a dangerous tone.
A little girl playing with a noose is looking for death, isn't she?
The old man at the auction naturally beamed after the price of the noose was raised to two. He only said loudly, "Now the price of this black iron noose has been raised to two. Is there any higher bidder?"
"If there is no more, we will have the final say."
However, the price that the man offered just now has already eliminated other competitors. Now that the man does not bid, it is naturally even less likely for others to offer two.
Therefore, after three strikes, the noose was bought by the girl at a high price.
Chen Changnian in the audience was naturally happy when she saw Jiang Nianjiao successfully photographing the noose. She immediately hugged Jiang Nianjiao and said, "Gillian, you are so kind. After I give the noose to Ziqing, I will let you go." He’s here to run errands for you for the day.”
Jiang Nianjiao chuckled and pushed Chen Changnian aside and said, "Okay, don't bring anything to do with you and Yan Ziqing. If you dare to use him, I don't dare to use him. You'd better grab your things and go directly to him." Bar."
After hearing Jiang Nianjiao's words, Chen Yannian stopped being sticky. Afterwards, Jiang Nianjiao paid the bill and Chen Yannian received the goods.
During this period, the boss of Tianzhen Pavilion also asked the two of them if they wanted to be escorted by bodyguards.
After all, the auction items in their Tianzhen Pavilion are indeed famous weapons on the weapon spectrum. Those who can come to such a place are all people from the world of martial arts. There are also people among these people who regard the rules as if they are nothing, and they are also afraid of any riots that may occur in the future.
And here is Shangjing, and now the imperial court is also very severe in cracking down on Jianghu forces. If something happens again, Tianzhen Pavilion will not be able to escape the crisis of being rectified.
These two little girls, especially the little girl who took the picture of the weapon, are not people in the world at first glance. Therefore, he proposed this out of good intentions.
However, Chen Changnian was very conceited about his kung fu, and Jiang Nianjiao thought that the thing was not in his hands, so they both directly rejected the Tianzhen Pavilion boss's proposal.
Afterwards, the two of them went their separate ways after leaving Tianzhen Pavilion. After Jiang Nianjiao got into his carriage, he ordered the coachman to take the carriage back to Jiang Mansion.
However, the carriage traveled here for a long time, and it was supposed to be a bustling avenue with noisy traffic, but at this time, the sound of people gradually became thinner. Jiang Nianjiao felt something was wrong, so she couldn't help but lift the curtain and looked over.
It didn't matter, it was almost life-threatening to look at it. I saw that the direction the carriage was pulling was not the way back to Jiang's house at all. It is a suburban path leading to the mountain road.
Jiang Nianjiao couldn't help but groan secretly in her heart. She also thought that along the smooth road, she should not encounter people who openly went to Beijing to rob. That's why he rejected Zhenge's proposal to send bodyguards that day.
But who would have thought that with just such a fluke, he would win the jackpot.
What's more, misfortunes never come singly, but Cui Qiao, who knows kung fu, is not by his side. Today, it really seems like I'm going to fall into someone's hands.
Lianying, who was following Jiang Nianjiao, also obviously realized that something was wrong. Jiang Nianjiao just made a booing gesture towards her, and then signaled her not to make any noise for the time being.
Lianying could only nod cooperatively.
Just watching the carriage go towards the mountain road little by little, both of them understood that if they allowed the driver to pull the carriage towards the mountain road, they would really make heaven and earth unable to respond, and the earth and earth would not work.
The two of them only searched the car. However, except for a porcelain pillow that had some offensive power, the other items in the car could not harm people at all.
Lingying snatched the porcelain pillow and then quietly lifted the curtain. At this time, the coachman was sitting on the edge of the carriage and holding the carriage. With the whip of the long whip, the horses in front of him went towards the mountains and forests in pain.
Lianying didn't dare to hesitate when she saw this. She just took the porcelain pillow and hit the man's head hard.
However, although the coachman did not look back, he seemed to have expected it. He only turned slightly to one side and jumped into the air. At the same time, the long whip in the man's hand was quickly rolled back.
Lingying's calf was caught by the long whip, and the man just pulled hard again.
Lianying, who had no strength to rely on, was instantly pulled out of the carriage.
ginger
When Nianjiao saw Lianying fell down, she immediately didn't care about alarming the enemy. She immediately wanted to get out of the car, but the coachman pushed her directly back into the carriage.
"Girl, I advise you to be more honest and don't make me angry easily." The coachman said unceremoniously.
Jiang Nianjiao's eldest daughter was about to lose her temper, but she also knew that now was not the time to vent her anger, so she could only open the sedan curtain first. After making sure that Lingying was just kicked out of the carriage by him, but no more harm was done, she felt sad in her heart. I feel more at ease.
After Lianying fell off the carriage, she obviously still wanted to catch up with the carriage, but a human's legs were no match for a horse.
Therefore, Lianying was soon left behind by the carriage.
Jiang Nianjiao could only say loudly, "Brother, who are you? Can't we talk it out if we have something to say? My father is rich! If you want money, I can ask my father to pay the ransom! If you have other demands, I can also try my best to help you." You handle it. Why do we need to get to this point?"
After hearing this, the coachman said, "Where did the noose go! Just hand over the noose. I will let you go."
As he spoke, the driver turned around, and Jiang Nianjiao realized at this moment that the driver pulling his own vehicle was none other than the man who had just offered three liang for the noose.
Although he looks fierce, he is very difficult to get along with.
However, Jiang Nianjiao breathed a sigh of relief when he expressed his request so smoothly.
After all, this kind of person is much easier to talk to than someone who doesn't ask for anything.
Jiang Nianjiao quickly cooperated and said, "That's natural, but the noose is not in my hands now. I also bought the noose as a gift to a friend. How about you let me go back and beg for it from my friend."
But the middle-aged man immediately refused and said, "Do you think I'm stupid? If I let you go back, will the noose still be in my hands?"
Jiang Nianjiao said quickly, "Why don't you ask my friend to come and redeem me? If I write her a letter, she will definitely come. If you can trust me, how about you ask my maid to deliver the letter?"
Jiang Nianjiao's idea obviously still has some feasibility. The middle-aged man thought about it for a while, and then said, "Okay! But if you dare to lie to me! Or your friend didn't come! Don't blame me for being rude."
Jiang Nianjiao saw that this man seemed to really just want the noose. After taking the pen and paper from the small drawer, she began to prepare a letter.
The man stopped pulling the cart and drove forward at this time.
When the carriage stopped in a tree-lined area, the man only asked Jiang Nianjiao to write a letter quickly.
At the same time, he only stared at Jiang Nianjiao's strokes.
Jiang Nianjiao was not sure whether the person could read or not, but regardless of whether the person was literate or illiterate, she had no intention of reporting him to the government.
There was no need for her to take greater risks when Bi Liang could solve the problem.
But she had only written a few sentences, and was about to ask the coachman where the transaction place was.
The sound of galloping horse hooves suddenly sounded from behind.
The coachman apparently also heard the sound of the horse's hooves. He was extremely alert. After hearing the sound of the horse's hooves, he immediately pulled the carriage again and rushed towards the mountain road ahead.
It seems that Lingying's loud shouting can still be heard behind her, "That's the carriage! It's the carriage that kidnapped my lady."
At the same time, it seemed that the sound of arrows breaking through the wind could be heard outside the car.
I don’t know how far I chased him, but the mountain road suddenly became narrower and narrower.
The speed of the carriage also slowed down significantly.
The coachman realized that it would probably be too late to escape at this point.
Therefore, he abandoned the carriage directly, drew the long knife in his hand, and wanted to fight with the visitor.
However, as soon as he showed his head, an overwhelming rain of arrows hit him.
At the same time, someone shouted loudly, "The governor of Shangjing is here! The traitor must not escape!"
He heard that the Shangjing Prefecture was dispatched, and he did see the costumes of the Shangjing Prefecture soldiers when they first appeared.
Seeing that they were outnumbered, the man knew that if he kidnapped Jiang Nianjiao again, he would probably not be able to escape unscathed.
Therefore, he cut off the rope of a horse, rode on the horse, and then abandoned the horse and ran away.
With the carriage blocking the aisle, the man couldn't stop many cold arrows.
When everyone catches up, then
The man didn't know where he had fled to the mountain road.
At the same time, a young man's gentle voice could be heard outside the carriage, "Girl, the bad guy has run away, you are safe now."
While speaking, the young man directly opened the car curtain.
When their eyes met, the young man had not yet recovered from the shock in his eyes, but Jiang Nianjiao, who was about to climb out of the carriage, only let out a low voice in surprise when she saw him. Then he fell back into the car seat again.
And Jiang Nianjiao looked at him as if he were some kind of mountain god and wild monster.
He didn't have time to comfort Jiang Nianjiao and reveal his identity.
Lianying behind him has already caught up.
Expecting that his appearance would not be as safe as this maid, the young man could only step back and let Lianying appear.
"Miss, we are safe! Fortunately, a few young masters were hunting in the mountains to help us. Otherwise, I really don't know what I would have done."
Jiang Nianjiao calmed down when she saw Lianying.
To be honest, the coachman just now did not scare her, but seeing Lu Zhizhang suddenly in this wilderness was undoubtedly like a nightmare for her.
Lu Zhizhang was her husband in her previous life. When she thought of their mutual friendship, she almost thought that everything she was working hard for now was just a dream. ..
Fortunately, Lianying appeared in time, and she could clearly distinguish the difference between this world and the next.
She shook her head at Lianying. After seeing Lu Zhizhang's panic just now, she regained her composure. She said softly, "I'm fine. That person didn't intend to kill me."
Hearing what she said, the young men who had just chased the bandits but failed to do so could not help but feel a little dissatisfied.
