Ma'am help, the general is in trouble again

Chapter 228
Suddenly, a big reactionary hat was slapped on me!

Zheng Quchi almost laughed out loud at the other party's arbitrary words: "No... do you have any evidence?"

Shoucheng held the big knife at his waist, with a dark face and a pair of gloomy and vicious eyes: "Evidence? Don't worry, I will thoroughly investigate and interrogate you, and then I won't be afraid that there will be no evidence." .”

"You're obviously subduing yourself." Zheng Quchi said angrily.

But after hearing this, the defender sneered: "To deal with you and other road bandits, being soft-hearted will only harm the people of Fu County. Stop talking nonsense and arrest them quickly."

Seeing the explanation but not being able to explain it clearly, the city guard didn't believe her despite her identity. The strange thing was that the city guard seemed to have determined that she was a road bandit and insisted on arresting her and putting her in jail.

But now the situation of the eldest brother and the younger sister is unknown. If they really encounter any danger, won't her arrest delay important matters?

What's more important is that the defender is very malicious to her. If she leaves with him, she won't be able to wait for Wei Yao and the others to find her, and she will be tortured to death by the defender.

Zheng Quchi's mind was spinning, and she quickly came to a conclusion. She would definitely let Wei Yao and the others handle this matter later, but now... she must not be taken away.

So she made a prompt decision and took out a slingshot from her body, and aimed it at Shou Cheng's forehead.

She was able to control her own strange power and kill the person in no time.

"Ouch..."

When he was caught off guard, he instinctively held his head and screamed. When everyone's attention was focused on him, Zheng Quchi turned around and ran away.

The city guard caught sight of her escaping figure from the corner of his eye. He ignored the big pain on his forehead and shouted angrily: "She is indeed a road bandit. Hurry, catch her!"

When the government officials and guards near the bulletin board heard what the city guard said, they believed it to be true. They immediately dropped what they were doing and gathered around to pursue him.

Seeing that all the officers and soldiers were led away by the woman named "Zheng Quchi", a veiled woman standing behind Zheng Quchi was surprised.

Then she raised her eyebrows and muttered to herself: "Is there such a good thing?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the veil on the woman's face was blown up by a gust of wind, revealing a delicate but straight nose and crimson lips, plus a pair of expectant eyes, which were right in front of the bulletin board poster. That bright and flamboyant face.

She approached the bulletin board, glanced at the flat picture on it, folded her arms in front of her chest, and said dissatisfied: "Who do you think you are as a painter when you paint me so ugly? You can still live in this poor country. If we were in Shengjing, hey, this craftsmanship would probably starve me to death."

-

Although Zheng Quchi was small, her speed in escaping was not slow. In addition, she specialized in running on tricky paths, so she was far away from her pursuers. Seeing that they could not catch up, she hid in a Breathing heavily in the alley.

"Quickly, quickly surround the surroundings, people must be here!"

Zheng Quchi heard a lot of chaotic footsteps running towards this direction, and her heart immediately dropped.

Her location is at the very back. If they rule out the wrong section of the road, they will find her soon.

After all, her familiarity with the roads in the county is definitely not as good as the officers and soldiers who patrol the streets every day. They only need to roughly guess her escape route, and they can set up defenses earlier and catch her at the end.

Zheng Quchi definitely couldn't go out now. She might have a face-to-face collision with them if she showed up.

But she turned to look behind her.

There is a dead end there. She has short legs and there is nothing on the ground to stand on tiptoe for her to climb over the wall and crawl away. What should she do?
At this moment, her heart seemed to be bandaged by something, so tight that she couldn't even breathe out.

As the various chaotic footsteps get closer and closer, maybe in the next second, they only need to turn a corner from the corner to see the desperate Zheng Quchi...

A dry and cool hand suddenly covered her mouth from behind, accompanied by a faint cold pine scent.

"Uh-" Zheng Quchi's eyes widened, and he was immediately like a frightened bird.

She subconsciously wanted to struggle away, but another hand pressed on the artery in her neck. It wasn't light or heavy, but the threat was very obvious.

She held her breath for a moment, but she didn't dare to move. She could only hear her heart beating violently.

"Don't make a sound, and don't be afraid."

The voice in her ear was low and light, like the rain hitting the bluestone on a quiet night. It seemed that all the creatures had fallen asleep, and everything around her seemed so quiet.

... Listening to this, it seems that he is not from the city guard side?
"Ni is water? (Who are you)"

she asked him vaguely.

"Don't say anything. I will take you away. If you agree, I will nod. If not, I will leave immediately." As soon as he finished speaking, before Zheng Quchi could think about it for a moment, he added in a low voice: "Yes. Yeah, you'd better be faster, because they should have just counted three and they'll be there."

Three numbers?
One, two, three? !

Zheng Quchi's eyes widened.

Is this still a consideration?
She nodded quickly.

"Uh-huh."

The person behind her seemed very satisfied to see her understanding the current affairs in this way. He gently reminded her: "If you are afraid later, just close your eyes."

What?
What is she afraid of?
At first, Zheng Quchi did not understand the meaning of this sentence at all.

But soon, she understood his good intentions. She thought he was taking her away and just climbed over the wall to avoid the pursuing soldiers. She thought she was wrong. She was so wrong.

When this "good Samaritan" said he would take her away, he really left her completely.

Directly from the county seat to the suburbs, from the suburbs to the mountains and forests, from the mountains and forests to the mountains and ridges, it went from the sky still bright, to the slightly dark sky, and finally to pitch black, and finally they came to a place that looked like... Inside the unusual cave...

She wanted to "get off" countless times in the middle, but the other party said nothing and even planned to knock her out to save her from making a noise, so she learned to "shut up".

She almost vomited from the jolt, because she could not survive being carried by the princess. She was carried on her shoulders, and the hardest bone happened to reach her stomach.

Sin ah.

When he reached the cave, he let her down.

It was already dark, but there were no lights in this cave. No, there were no fuel lamps. There was a slight sound of wind inside, and it was dark and terrifying both inside and outside.

Zheng Quchi was not afraid of the dark, but she was nervous about being alone in the dark. She rubbed her stomach and said cautiously: "Strong man, no, my benefactor, why did you bring me here?"

She was not stupid, nor had she ever suspected that the stranger who rescued her had other motives, and he might be even worse than the city guard.

But in this situation, how could she still yell and scold her?If the other party is actually a very evil person, with his powerful martial arts, he can probably kill her with just one slap.Therefore, the reason why she maintains a good attitude now is not that she is stupid, but that she is cowardly.

"What if they catch you without taking you away?" The other party seemed to be answering her question, but it seemed that he didn't answer at all.

He stood in a dark place, so she could never see his face clearly, but judging from the tone of his words, he didn't seem to have any sinister thoughts about her for the time being.

"Well, then you can just drop me anywhere. I know the way and I can go home by myself." She forced a smile.

"Don't worry, I still want to ask you something."

Asking questions again?
Thinking that not long ago, she was chased all the way because she couldn't answer the city guard's questions. Now he also has questions to ask?
She felt that the question the other party wanted to ask after going to such great lengths to capture her must not be easy to answer.

If she answered wrongly, or answered him dissatisfied, wouldn't she be in danger again?

She felt that it was impossible not to resist.

Rather than leaving her safety in the control of others, she might as well take the initiative.

The darkness of her field of vision was so dark that her excellent eyesight couldn't resist it. She couldn't see the other person's figure carefully. She didn't believe that the other person could still see her clearly.

So, this is a great opportunity.

Although she couldn't see, she could hear the sound and identify her location.

Just when she was secretly planning to get the slingshot, suddenly there was a bright light in the cave, and she looked over in shock.

But I saw dozens of people standing in the cave. They were all sallow and thin, but their bodies were strong and upright. In addition, the firelight raised the shadows behind them, and they looked like a group of jackals crouching in front of the fire. It seems to jump forward and tear apart the prey.

"..."

Zheng Quchi was stunned.

She put the slingshot back stiffly and quietly, turned her head and said to the man in front of her with a very polite attitude: "My benefactor, just ask, I will tell you everything I know."

The man stepped forward from the shadows.

He is extremely tall, but his figure is thin, but overall he is not ugly. Perhaps it is because he does not shrug his shoulders or crotch his waist, and his shoulders, waist and hips form a natural and relaxed graceful arc. Although he is just walking in an ordinary way like others, But he happened to have a very well-mannered look.

Generally speaking, his facial features exposed to the light are not very stunning. He has a narrow and long face, thick eyebrows and long eyes, a tall nose with a slight hump, and lips that are neither thick nor thin, but they all look good. , which inexplicably fell in love with her.

His expression was casual and smiling: "When I was in the city, I heard the officers and soldiers shouting "road bandit", "Are you a road bandit?"

Zheng Quchi's heart suddenly rose to his throat: "..."

She knew that the question he was going to ask would definitely not be easy to answer.

But how should she answer the question of road bandits?

If so, what if these people are actually enemies of the road bandits and have a grudge against them?
If she was wrongly accused, these people didn't look like an organization engaged in legitimate business. What if these people came specifically to rescue road bandits?
"What? Are you mute?" the man said lightly.

The dozens of people behind him took a deep breath, like a bison making an attacking panting sound, creating a tense and threatening atmosphere in advance.

Zheng Quchi said quickly: "No, I was thinking, do you want me to be, or not?" The voice at the end was really hollow.

The man seemed amused by her words: "Of course I hope you are, because we are road bandits."

"..."

Zheng Quchi's expression froze in an instant.

What the hell!

He, no, they are the road bandit team that Wang Zebang and the county government are targeting, and they are planning to mobilize troops to encircle and suppress them soon? !

Help!She, she had just been wrongly accused of being a road bandit, and now she really fell into the gangster's lair?
-

Fu County
In the city tonight, there is a city-wide curfew, and every household has closed its doors and windows, turned off the lights, for fear that it will be affected by the cold and cold atmosphere outside.

In the alley, which is not a well-off area, there is a bright fire, and the resolute and cold-blooded soldiers hold torches and surround the place with heavy guards, solemn and full of bloody aura.

puff--

A fat figure was kicked away and hit the wall. He spat out a mouthful of blood, and then slid off the wall like a rag and fell to the ground.

My whole body felt like it was falling apart, and I couldn't move for a long time.

But it wasn't over yet, another foot that was specifically designed to pick on his weak points stomped hard onto his back.

The man's neck jerked up reflexively, feeling pain in his flesh, bones, and internal organs. The pain caused his whole body to convulse, veins on his forehead protruded, and his face turned red.

"Our general's wife disappeared here, right?"

The man trampling on people above had fox eyes with slightly curved corners. Even when he was torturing people, he always had a smile on his face, but in the eyes of the man, he looked like a man-eating evil ghost, which made him People are horrified.

He sprayed blood from the mouth and begged desperately for mercy: "Yes, I'm sorry, I really didn't know at the time, I really didn't know..."

If he knew that that person was really the general's wife, even if he was killed, he wouldn't dare to bring evil ideas to her.

"Don't know what?" The smile on Wei Yao's face finally slowly faded. He propped up his elbows and legs, slowly lowered his body, and asked softly: "I heard someone say that the general's wife told you at that time, she It’s called Zheng Quchi, Zheng, Qu, Chi, she clearly said it, why don’t you believe it?”

I saw the majestic city guard not long ago, but now he was so scared that he almost peed: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please spare me, spare my life." …”

But Wei Yao seemed unable to hear her. He only murmured with a gloomy look: "Even if you inquire more carefully, or act more cautiously, and the investigation is clear, our general's wife will not be lost."

Speaking of this, the murderous intent in Wei Yao's eyes was clearly revealed, but he was restrained by a hand.

"Weiyao, calm down first!" Wang Zebang rushed over.

"How can you tell me to calm down?" He suddenly turned around, his face was full of regret and self-blame except for the cold and cruel look on his face: "I was negligent. I shouldn't have left my wife alone. The important task assigned has left the camp, so we should send another person to follow the madam. If something really happens to the madam this time..."

Wang Zebang also blamed himself for this. They had been very busy recently, so busy that they were almost dizzy, so they didn't think about more problems for a while.

Wang Zebang's brows furrowed into a deep "Chuan", but he said firmly: "No, I just inspected the scene. My wife should have been taken away, but she was not taken away by force."
