Jiangshan is the betrothal gift

Chapter 78
The two stumbled all the way down the mountain, walked out of the forest, and saw the small town they mentioned before in the distance.

It's just that the town is full of smoke, the houses are toppled, and occasionally there are faint fires in a few places.

Seeing some soldiers in that town bravely going out, Rui Yi hurriedly dragged Ling Xiao back into the woods, never thinking that after climbing the mountain all night, he was the one who fell into the jaws of a tiger.

Human beings have the most fundamental fear of war, and Rui Yi is no exception.She is not even an ordinary peasant woman, at least she can protect herself with some strength in the market and fields.Miss Jiao like her can't carry it with her hands or shoulders, and she can only be slaughtered in case of military disasters, without the slightest resistance.

She dragged Ling Xiao into the woods and sat down on the ground, that fear spread from the bottom of her heart.At first, she thought that if she met Dayan's army, at least someone would take her home, but the conversation between everyone last night made her completely give up this idea.Those people are Dayan's army, the people of the common people, but they did things like burning, killing and looting, she couldn't believe it.

"Girl, what should we do?" Ling Xiao shrank into a ball trembling, seeing that group of people had started to walk out of the town, he was terrified.

Rui Yi didn't know what to do, he held Ling Xiao's hand and gritted his teeth and said, "No, let's go back over the mountain."

"If I had known that I shouldn't have listened to those people back then, I would have stayed in Luoxue Temple." Ling Xiao was about to cry. When she had done cruel things in her life, she was just pulling the hair of her girl who bullied her. , pressed her to the ground and beat her, she had never even killed a chicken.

In the early morning of winter, the wind was as cold as a knife. It was better to walk all the time, and I didn't feel how cold it was.At this moment, he stopped suddenly, and the cold wind kept pouring down his neck, and his whole body was about to freeze into ice slag.

Although Ling Xiao was scared, he still took out the sable fur cloak from his bag and put it on Rui Yi. Rui Yi didn't want to, but Ling Xiao said: "Girl, there is nothing in this ghost place except those whores. Other people. You’d better put it on. In case if we can’t run out, others will know that you are a person of identity by looking at the cloak, so you have to ask clearly, then maybe we will have a chance.”

What Ling Xiao said made some sense, Rui Yi usually only stayed in the inner house, and didn't know how powerful the servants outside were with the signboard in the mansion.Ling Xiao obviously knew this. Although the danger was great, it was slightly better than this.

Putting on the cloak, the whole person almost melted into the color of the snow, and Rui Yi also felt much warmer.

"Let's go up the mountain first, we can't sit still." Rui Yi felt that it was a bit silly to stay here, since he had come to this point, he had to find a way to get out.She didn't know what to do in front of her, but there was only one way behind her, so she could only bite the bullet and walk back.

Ling Xiao was also afraid, so he nodded when he heard the words, and the master and servant turned around and walked back.After walking a few steps, I suddenly heard a slight vibration from the ground in the distance. Looking in the direction of the sound through the gap in the forest, I saw a large cloud of dust and smoke rising in the distance. And ran towards them, getting closer and closer.

At this time, Bing Yong, who had just left the town, immediately became vigilant, and soon a large number of people poured out of the town.

Rui Yi, the brave soldiers from the town, and the large crowd of people on horseback form a triangle. Fortunately, Rui Yi only has two masters and servants on his side, and there is no movement.

It was a little distance from the people and horses in the town, so it was relatively easy for Rui Yi's master and servant to go up the mountain.But now suddenly there was such a group of people, and with the momentum of thunder, they came roaring, and stopped not far from the grove in the blink of an eye.

Rui Yi and the others were actually not very far away from the newcomers, so their master and servant dared not move, and they would make extremely loud noises when they stepped on dead branches and leaves, which would definitely alarm the visitors.In desperation, Rui Yi covered Ling Xiao with a cloak, and both master and servant lay on the ground, not daring to breathe.

I'm very glad that I brought a ermine cloak with me when I went out today, if I had that red silk cloak, I wouldn't be crying right now.

Covering their black hair with a hood, Ling Xiao's legs were trembling in fear, and he was about to cry, "The servant hasn't honored my old lady yet, why did this happen to me so badly?"

Rui Yi was also afraid, but when the girl in front of her cried, she had to be strong instead, and she had to hold on even if she was afraid.

At this time, I suddenly heard a very loud voice, "Bangaoge, you and I meet again today, how is it? I don't want to catch you this time, so I can't hold back."

"General Shan likes to joke. You have followed my example after chasing me all the way. You are a little angry. Come on, why don't we drink three cups first, and then we can decide who is better."

"Bah! Shameless thing, you know how to run if you can't beat it, look at your promise. I got caught by my father today, let's see where you run!"

This was the first time he heard soldiers yelling and cursing before the battle, Rui Yi really felt like laughing.These two don't seem to be at war, they seem to be arguing with each other.Ling Xiao next to him was not as scared as before, and whispered to Rui Yi: "Girl, these two people are really interesting."

The two lay in the snow nest without daring to move, and their voices were extremely low, but this scene was very different from what they had imagined, which greatly relieved their tension, but their fear was still there.

"If you can't catch it, it's because you are incompetent. If you are not good enough, you blame others for running fast. Oh, you can't do it. Why do you run two more steps because of your short legs?"

The opponent's men let out loud laughter. Obviously, the Shan general here must be short, with short legs, and he was attacked for his shortcomings.

Sure enough, he immediately became angry and shouted to set up the formation.

Ruiyi had only heard of what a war was like before, but he had never seen it before, but he only mentioned it in a few words in the book. At this moment, he saw the two armies who were still laughing and scolding each other, and they immediately put up their battles, showing a murderous look. However, it made people afraid to come out.

The two confronted each other, strangely, they didn't make a move immediately, but just looked at each other like this, as if they were waiting for something.

This time it was hard for Rui Yi's master and servant lying in the snow nest, Rui Yi felt that if this continued, she would freeze to death without being caught by others.His hands and feet were numb, his teeth were chattering uncontrollably, and he couldn't even speak.There has never been such a difficult time in my life. When I went out yesterday morning, I was still the pampered and pampered Miss Jiao in the back of the house, but today I was lying in the snow nest in a miserable state.

Not long after, Ruiyi felt that he couldn't hold on anymore. He climbed the mountain all night and didn't eat anything in the morning. hallucinated.

"Ling Xiao, I heard the sound of horseshoes, is my family here to pick me up?"

Ling Xiao couldn't bear it anymore, but at least she was born as a girl and was used to hard work, so she could still hold on at this time.Seeing the girl like this, tears were about to fall, "Girl, hold on a little longer, Madam will send someone to pick you up soon."

Ruiyi's ears were buzzing, and the sound of horseshoes poured in like a tide. Amidst the noise, the lady's gentle smile appeared before her eyes. more powerful.Seeing Pei Jilin and Xin Geer again, they were all smiling at her, and she wanted to smile at them too, but she couldn't move her mouth, so she became anxious.When I was in a hurry, I saw Zhou Chenyi's cold and silent face and said to her: "I can't marry you." He also heard that Zhu Yanzhang came several times to make a fuss. They all smiled at her, and the disdain in those eyes made her eyes sting.

"Oh, it's a concubine after all, how can the son of the prime minister's family like it?"

"That's right, that's the only face I can look at. I really think of myself as a flower. Look at Jiu Yiniang's frightened look. Some of her are crying."

"I heard that Mr. Zhu is called the most beautiful man. He has a very high family background. Did he marry any kind of lady? It's not like being slapped in the face for insisting on this marriage."

"Climb high and fall hard. If you want me to say that your bones are light by three points, if you want to climb high and enjoy wealth, you have to be worthy of your own weight."

Rui Yi's whole brain was about to explode, and he really wanted to shut those people's mouths.Tears fell one by one, can she decide the marriage?

As she was crying, she saw Zhu Yanzhang saying to her solemnly, "When I come back, I will marry you and go home in February next year."

Under the sun, the back that was drifting away, still in a trance of yesterday, the gradually blurred figure made her feel unbearably sad.

The first man who said he wanted to marry her was also the man who had divorced before.

She hated him, but couldn't hate him.

Suddenly feeling a sharp pain, Rui Yi woke up suddenly, and immediately remembered Ling Xiao's scream.

Her arm hurt like hell, but she couldn't move. Seeing the bright red liquid soaking through her clothes, at this moment, she suddenly felt that it would be good to just die like this.

Before Rui Yi came back to his senses, Ling Xiao got up, dragged her into his arms, looked at the feather arrow on his arm, and didn't know what to do.
