Chapter 232 231: Come to redeem Bai Qingchen
It's time, and it's the time when the smoke from the kitchen is rising, and the sky is slightly red in the afterglow of the setting sun.

In the woods outside the city, there was a thin white mist. A fine horse galloped through the woods. The snow-colored figure on the horse's back was vivid, and there was a little red-clothed doll in his arms in front of him.

Nan Zhuohua sat in front, and Yun Ranyue's wide sleeves covered her body, shielding her from the wind blowing in front of her.

Passing through this forest, tens of miles away from the imperial capital, there is a mountain called Duanming Mountain.

The reason why it is called Duanming Mountain is because many people died on this mountain. Not only are there a nest of bandits entrenched on the mountain, but there are also wolves and beasts that often haunt.

There are few people here, and most people dare not pass by here. Occasionally, some dart guards or businessmen will pass by, but almost all of them will die here.

Either he was killed by bandits and robbed of wealth, or he was devoured by wild beasts in the mountains.

In recent years, the bandits on this mountain have become more and more rampant. It is not that the imperial court has come to encircle and suppress them, but they have all returned without hope.

Because the terrain here is steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the court soldiers who came to encircle and suppress were not familiar with the terrain here, so it was difficult to take down the bandits for a while.

The imperial court had no choice but to turn a blind eye.

However, these bandits are eyeing Bai Qingchen today, Emperor Hongyuan still attaches great importance to Bai Qingchen's life, and must try his best to rescue him.

From Jingzhou to Dijing, this mountain road is not the only one that must be passed. When going to Jingzhou, Bai Qingchen took the water road, and the road was smooth and safe.

But there was a point, Bai Qingchen couldn't stand the shaking of the boat, and vomited to death along the way.

In the words of Shen Yuluoyan, the adults of his family are both physically strong and delicate, with a weak willow supporting the wind.

When returning to the Imperial Capital from Jingzhou, Bai Qingchen didn't want to take the waterway, but insisted on taking the mountain road. Now it's all right, and the bandits have targeted him with his rich and powerful temperament.

Later, even though those bandits knew that he was the prime minister of the imperial court, they still showed no mercy. The bandits were all desperadoes, and they didn't care who the passers-by were, as long as they had money.

Although Shen Yuluoyan has some kung fu, but Bai Qingchen is a weak chicken, and there are many bandits, so in the end he still can't beat him.

Bai Qingchen and Luoyan were tied to the top of the mountain, and Shen Yu was released back, and he was asked to go back and get the ransom to come and redeem people. Knowing that Bai Qingchen was rich and powerful, the bandits were not polite, so they opened their mouths and asked for a ransom of 100 million taels , or gold.

Moreover, Yunranyue was also asked to redeem people, which was a bit unexpected.

The bandit's intentions can't help but make people speculate.

Bandits' strongholds were built on the steep hills, and there were people patrolling around the hills all day long, keeping the strongholds airtight.

There are two heads in the cottage, the first head and the second head are vicious people, extremely vicious, disregarding human life, the merchants passing by here fall into their hands, and none of them will end well.

In an iron prison cell, Bai Qingchen was half lying on the haystack on the ground, holding a piece of grass in his mouth, resting his hands on the back of his head, crossing his legs and shaking.

Wearing a comfortable posture does not look like being kidnapped at all.

Luoyan stood in the cell, holding the iron rods in both hands, squeezing his head to look outside, but the distance between the iron rods was too small to squeeze his head out.

Compared to Bai Qingchen's comfort, Luoyan was a little restless.

He turned his head and looked at Bai Qingchen who closed his eyes lightly, "My lord, do you think that Chen Yu can handle his business? Is there any problem if he hasn't come back for so long?"

He was afraid that Chen Yu's brain would not work well, and something would happen on the road.

Bai Qingchen opened his eyes, spit out the hay in his mouth, and responded lazily, "What can happen to that idiot Chen Yu, and it's impossible to meet the second bandit kidnapping him."

Luoyan scratched her head, feeling that what her lord said made sense, so she relaxed.

Luo Yan is not as simple and honest as Chen Yu, and his mind is very cautious. He is a little puzzled, and feels that something is wrong.

He glanced at the robber guarding outside the door, sat down cross-legged next to Bai Qingchen, stared at the tiger's eyes, and asked in a low voice: "My lord, what do you think the bandit leader is thinking? If people come to save us with ransom money, aren’t they seeking their own death?”

In fact, the head of the family didn't decide like this at first, he originally told Chen Yu to keep quiet, went back to get the gold by himself, and then came back alone to redeem Bai Qingchen and Luoyan.

But when Chen Yu went down the mountain, the head of the family suddenly changed his mind, saying that he asked Yun Ranyue to bring the ransom to redeem him.

This operation is really incomprehensible.

After all, with Yun Ranyue's strength, he alone can level this mountain.

Such an idea of ​​the head of the family is definitely leading the tiger up the mountain and looking for a dead end.

But Luoyan couldn't figure out what these bandits meant, so he could only ask his adults what they thought.

Bai Qingchen didn't have any idea either, the bandit leader's sudden convulsions might be due to his brain being broken.

He closed his eyelids lightly, and said in a casual tone, "It is estimated that these bandits feel that life is boring, and they are already tired of living."

Isn't recruiting Yun Ranyue over just getting tired of work?
The head of the family is really not tired of working, because if Yun Ranyue is not attracted, then he will be the one who will die.

In the dim, unlit room, there was only a faint yellow afterglow falling into the small window lattice, and a few faint rays of light shone faintly in the room.

In the room, the head of the family was standing aside, with a slanted old scar from the corner of the eye to the bridge of the nose, looking extremely vicious.

At this time, his eyes were terrified, and the dark room was oppressive and quiet, which made him dare not take a breath.

In one corner of the room, there were still a few corpses piled up. Their limbs and arms were broken, and their heads rolled on the ground.

It wasn't the dead bodies that frightened the head, but the black-robed man sitting in front of him in the room.

The man sitting on the chair was holding a brocade handkerchief, slowly wiping his fingertips.

His figure was hidden in the dim light, he was dressed in a cold black robe, his face was covered by a black mask, and only his red lips and delicate jawline were exposed.

After wiping his fingertips, the brocade handkerchief turned into powder in his palms. He put his arms on the armrests on both sides, his slender legs crossed, and his thin lips curled up in a shallow curve, elegant and dignified, yet creepy and cold.

It's the first time that the big master has been domineering on this mountain for so many years, and he has met such a dangerous person.

It was so dangerous that he didn't dare to raise his eyes to look at the man in front of him. The cold and bone-piercing aura around him made one's hair stand on end.

Those profuse red lips, gorgeous like blood, are even more crimson than a woman's lips.

This man is like a demon, but he is not like an ordinary person.

The head of the family bent over at the side, trembling, not daring to raise his head to look at the man, with a humble attitude, "Sir, my lord, I have followed your instructions to ask the follower who went down the mountain to inform Yun Ranyue to bring the gold to him personally." Come to redeem people."
