"Ah~"
The two screamed in fright, but the man stepped forward and picked up Shen Que and Zelan in his arms, covering their mouths with one hand.
The two people were frightened and struggled desperately, but with their feet off the ground, the man's rough and strong hands almost crushed their heads.
Zelan was afraid that the man would hurt Shen Que, so she simply kicked him in the leg as hard as she could, as if she had hit a painful spot. The man hissed, and the hand that was holding Zelan loosened up, and she fell to the ground. In an instant, the man slashed at the back of her neck, and Zeelan fainted and fell to the ground.
Shen Que was so frightened that he couldn't make a sound and could only scream "woo woo". The man said:
"If you move again, I'll kill you both."
The voice was hoarse and low, sounding extremely terrifying. Shen did not dare to move anymore and could only cry silently and let the man take them away.
It was probably when he encountered bandits. Shen Que thought desperately, how could he be so unlucky? Logically speaking, bandits would not come back here again. Why would they do something unprofitable? Therefore, he was afraid that he was staring at I have been watching them for several days.
God, this makes me feel even scarier when I think about it.
The bandits here are fierce, and the people have long been tortured to the point of losing their sense of shame and bottom line. They will do anything to survive, so there is no hope that anyone will come to save them.
What to do, what to do, Shen Que tried hard to stay calm and had to find a way to get out quickly.
However, it is not that easy.
The man took them down the mountain. There were ropes and sacks prepared at the foot of the mountain. The two of them were put into the sacks like animals and taken away.
It's over, this little life has to be handed down here.
Shen Que was shaken so much that he felt like vomiting, tears couldn't stop falling from his eyes, and he felt hopeless and scared like never before.
During the bumpy ride, she felt dizzy and her limbs were limp, like a lamb at the mercy of others.
After an unknown amount of time, the two of them were thrown heavily to the ground. There was a sound of the door closing, and the surroundings became quiet.
Zeelan also woke up because of such a fall.
"Madam, are you still there?"
"Zelan, I'm here."
The two men were tied hand and foot and put in sacks. They could not see anything and could only identify each other by their voices.
"Madam, are you okay? Are you hurt? Did that person bully you?"
"No, no. Where are you."
"I'm here, and I'm moving towards you little by little."
The two talked quietly, identifying the direction of the sound bit by bit and moving closer to each other. The moment they touched each other, they finally leaned together and burst into tears.
I didn't dare to cry loudly, so I could only sob softly and cry uncontrollably.
"Will we die here?" Zeelan asked.
Shen Que said he didn't know, "It's all my fault for forcing you to stay here."
"It's not my fault, Madam. This slave's life was given to me by Madam. It's my duty to give this life back to Madam. Besides, if something happens to His Royal Highness, we can run away but the monks can't run away from the temple. Sooner or later, he will die."
After going through all this, this little girl has become a lot more enlightened.
"But what should we do now."
Shen Que stopped crying and sniffed hard, "Did you smell a musty smell?"
Zeelan said yes, and then touched the thing behind him with his body. It was wood.
I'm afraid it's a residential building, a woodshed or a kitchen.
Thank God, not bandits.
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief silently.
However, even if he is not a bandit, he is definitely not a good person. I don't know what that extremely evil person can do when he goes crazy.
The scenes of people snatching food and eating people they had seen in the past few days came to their minds, and they became more and more frightened.
"Madam." Zelan cried, "Can we still get out alive?"
Shen Que nodded and said yes, "Let's think of a way."
But even his hands and feet were tied up, no matter how he tried to figure it out, he didn't even know where he was.
Shen Que said, "Zelan, sit down and I'll rub on your back to see if I can remove the blindfold."
The man also blindfolded them.
Zelan said yes and sat up straight. Shen Que rubbed his face hard against Zelan through the rough linen bag. Sure enough, after a few rubs, the blindfold was rubbed off.
There were some blurry lights and shadows in front of my eyes, and numbness revealed a hint of skylight outside. It was going to be dark soon.
"This should be a residential house." She looked around hard, "It looks like a woodshed."
"Then it's definitely not a bandit." Zeelan was a little happy, "What else can I see? Madam, sit down and I'll take a seat too."
She used the same method to remove the blindfold, and now both of them could see each other.
"There's another room next door."
"There is a yard outside, but it is small and a bit rundown."
"The courtyard walls have collapsed."
The two moved little by little, observing the surrounding environment.
Suddenly, a voice came from the next room, which frightened the two of them so much that they didn't dare to move anymore and settled down to listen.
"Chen Da." It was an old woman's voice, "What on earth did you do?"
"Mom, just leave it alone."
It was the man's voice, "What's going on in the world now? As long as we sell these two people to the bandits, we will be able to have enough to eat. When the time comes, your son will carry you on his back. If we leave Fengyi, we two will be able to live." Go down."
"Chen Da, my son." The old woman said sadly, "Is this what your mother taught you when you were a child? Aren't you afraid of retribution for doing such a sinful thing?"
"What kind of retribution?" The man groaned angrily, "Those officials have already run away with their families. They can ignore the life and death of the people and are not afraid of retribution.
Mom, when has this happened? Who cares whether God will retaliate or not? I’m afraid we will starve to death before God repays us. "
"That's not okay." The old woman was so angry that she banged the table. "Think about your dead father, and then think about the people who have helped us, and you can't do such a heartless thing. Today, as long as I If you still have one breath, I won’t let you do anything wrong.”
"mother."
"Don't call me mother, tell me honestly, who are the two people who were kidnapped, and where are they now?"
The old woman was angry, but the man was also very stubborn and kept silent.
"Okay, now that you are patient and capable, I won't even listen to what I say."
The old woman said angrily, "If you don't tell me, I'll leave. Don't come to me again in this life."
"mother."
"Don't stop me."
…
Shen Que and Zelan in the woodshed heard these words clearly. They could be saved. As long as the old lady knew that they were next door, they could be saved.
What to do? The two people started desperately calling for help:
"Help, is there anyone?"
"Help, someone come and save us."
"Zelan, get up, let's knock on the door."
Shen was indeed afraid that the mother and son arguing next door wouldn't hear the shouts here, so the two of them rushed towards the door desperately.
Sure enough, after a while, the door was pushed open from the outside, and a ray of light came in. The two of them stepped back in fear and huddled together.
"Chen Da, this is a good thing you did."
Regardless of her son's obstruction, the old woman stepped forward and untied Shen Que and Zelan's sacks.
You wouldn't know if you didn't look at it, but you would be shocked to see that she is the aunt from the ruined temple.
Shen Que was stunned, and so was the old woman.
"aunt."
"It's you." The old woman burst into tears, "This is really evil."
As he said that, the old man picked up a piece of firewood beside him and hit Chen Da on the body.
After beating the man into the yard, Chen Da kept begging for mercy:
"Mom, I was wrong, mom, don't be angry, it hurts, mom~"
Finally, there was no danger. Several people were sitting in the Chen family's room. A large oil lamp burned weakly, and the dim light dissipated the cold air around them.
The old woman was short of breath, coughing violently, and kept breathing heavily.
"Mom, I'm sorry, I was wrong."
Chen Da was forced to kneel down. Facing the panting and pale-faced old lady, Chen Da did not dare to resist.
"Madam, I'm really sorry for you. It's the old woman who doesn't know how to teach her children, and she made you suffer like this."
The old woman cried and apologized to Shen Que and Zelan.
Shen Que hurriedly said: "Auntie, I'm not angry, and we won't blame him. It's all a misunderstanding. Please let him get up quickly."
The old woman said no, "I can't let go of this old face and I don't have the nerve to tell you. This bitch put me in a ruined temple, and then went out to steal things and do bad things. The pancakes you eat were actually stolen by him." , no matter how poor our family has been for generations, we have never done such a shameful thing, and I will not forgive him."
As he spoke, the old man coughed violently again.
"Zelan, go get some hot water." Shen Que quickly helped the old man sit down, "Madam, please don't be angry first, your health is important. To be honest, I am a doctor. We brought some herbs before coming here and hid them in the A place, please ask your son to run over and bring the things over for me, and I will help you get well first."
When Chen Da, who was kneeling on the ground, heard that Shen Que could cure his old mother's disease, he immediately kowtowed to Shen Que: "Living Bodhisattva, goddess, you sir, don't care about me, as long as you can cure my mother's disease Sick, if you want to kill me or chop me into pieces, I’ll do whatever you want.”
He was a filial son. Shen Que felt warm in his heart and told him the address. Chen Da went out in the dark.
When the people came back, they not only took the hidden baggage from Shen Que, but also brought back a chicken and a fish.
Before the old woman could curse, Chen Da quickly explained: "I didn't steal it, let alone rob it. Just now on the road, bandits robbed a government inn. This is something they dropped on the road. I picked it up. Come back and cook some stew for mother to replenish your body."
That night, the old woman cooked herself. She cooked chicken and made porridge with dried vegetables. She actually vomited it out after smelling the strong aroma.
"What's wrong, madam? Did this bitch hurt you?" the old woman asked her.
Shen Que quickly explained that it was not the case, "I am pregnant."
The old woman was surprised, "Then you haven't gone to the corpse mountain to look for..."
At this point, I understood in my heart, "That's your man, right? Have you found him?"
Shen Que lowered his head and held back tears and said, "No."
"No, it's a good thing." Chen Da said from the side, "I was there during the days of the fight. I was lucky enough to survive. If no body can be found, it means that the person is still alive."
"Really?" Hope arose in Shen Que's heart, "Brother Chen, do you know if the leader of Shuofang Army is still alive?"
"Is your man the leader of the Shuofang Army?" Chen Da was stunned. "That is a powerful man. He is a young man."
"Yes, that's him. Do you know him?"
Chen Da looked at her meaningfully and said, "I can't say I knew him, but he was a hero and he died a worthy death."
"What, what did you say, he is dead?" Shen Que was stunned, and Zelan was also stunned, and asked: "You just said that the fact that you didn't find the body means that the person is still alive."
"Hey, that's an ordinary soldier. The corpses of generals and leaders like this will be taken away by bandits, and then..."
He was afraid of scaring them, so he didn't say anything further.
Shen Que suddenly understood in his heart, whip the corpse.
