Chapter 17 Five Things

"It's almost dawn, I should go back!" Qiu Ying walked out and looked at the sky, then turned and looked at Ma Jun.

"Miss Qiu, so many things happened one night, and now you are alone again..." Ma Jun said in a low voice, scratching his head unnaturally.

Jinggan saw that Ma Jun was a little reluctant to leave Qiu Ying. Just as Miss Qiu was about to speak, Jinggan picked up the crutch from the ground and handed it to Qiu Ying, and said: "It's not bright outside yet, girl, don't leave in a hurry. Besides, , You, a female prostitute, went out carelessly in the dark, what will you do if you run into that shadow again?" After that, he secretly winked at Ma Jun who was standing aside. Seeing that Ma Jun was still stunned, he asked him to do it. He quickly took two steps back and stepped on the horse army.

"Oh, Miss Qiu... Why don't you give it to me? You are a weak woman, and you can make people worried if you walk alone in the daytime. What's more, the sky is not completely bright yet. We have just met each other not long ago, and we met again. You leave, and I don’t know when we will meet again." After seeing Ma Jun say these words, Qiu Ying already understood that Ma Jun had feelings for her, so she blushed and hesitated to respond.

Seeing that the girl seemed to be in trouble, Ma Jun suddenly felt a little frustrated. He hesitated to speak, and kept rubbing his hands together, not knowing what to say. The girl was thoughtful, and when she saw Ma Jun was at a loss, she took out a string of copper coins from her waist. He took off one bell, held it in his hand, tied the rest on his belt, and walked towards the horse army.

When Ma Jun saw Qiu Ying coming over, he felt even more nervous. Huh? Does Miss Qiu look down on me or is she deliberately avoiding my pursuit? Or did I do something wrong?

When she got closer, Qiu Ying grabbed Ma Jun's wrist, gently put the bell into Ma Jun's hand, lowered her head and said, "This bell is just a mark. After leaving Yumen Pass, the road is difficult to walk. It's hard to come back! If we meet again by chance, you will know it's me when you hear the sound of this bell!" After saying that, he picked up Ma Jun's wrist, put it to his ear and shook it.

"Girl! Give me one too!" Jing Gan said jokingly, reluctant to part with the beautiful couple in front of him.

"You are so dark and ghostly. It would be a waste to give you the bell!"

Jing Gan couldn't say anything for a long time, and secretly sighed at how extraordinary this woman was.

"Okay! Take care, everyone! If it's too late, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up with the merchant caravan." The girl said as she took off the piece of cloth from the cane, wrapped it around her head, dressed like a businessman from the Western Regions, and bowed to say goodbye.

After leaving the Temple of the Sea, Qiu Ying got on her horse, turned around and looked at Ma Jun again. The two of them looked at each other and smiled before bidding farewell!

After passing the grassy beach in the distance, Qiu Ying's figure gradually disappeared in the distant mountains, and Ma Jun was still paddling his feet to reach into the distance and waving. As Qiu Ying left, Ma Jun's soul also went with him.

"Are you Tashi?", a soft voice came from the darkness.

"Who is it?" Tashi, who was tied up high on a stone pillar, tried to break free, but became even more panicked when he heard an unfamiliar voice.

When they got closer, Tashi looked under the stone pillar and saw a man slowly putting down a foreign plate of food. He took out a bowl, filled it with a bowl full of rice, and pressed a piece of meat. Then he gave instructions to the people on both sides. He pulled down the lifting platform and sent the full meal up.

"Put me down, it's too high and I can't reach it!" After being kidnapped by Kuang Feihong, Tashi was rebellious and stubborn. He was hung on a stone pillar in a concentration camp thirty miles outside Lingcheng. Now. It was already the third day that I had not had a bite of food. I was hung on a stone pillar and tortured day and night. When I saw someone bringing me food, I was so hungry that I kicked my legs and struggled to reach the rice hanging on my forehead without asking. I didn’t know who was coming. Deliberately playing tricks, but still unable to see the height from below, the full bowl of rice was pulled to his forehead. No matter how hungry Tashi was, he could only watch the food that was out of reach above his head. This cruel method, in The bandit's den is called the Eagle!

"Aren't you afraid of poison in the food?"

"Dad, it would be better for me to die by poisoning in this meal than to die at the hands of that evil man!"

The man below heard it clearly and thought to himself: What a tough man, he is still so stubborn after three days. It is a pity that he has offended General Kuang. Even if he admires him more, he cannot violate the rules of the army. He stepped forward.

After dismissing the two guards, he looked up at Tashi.

"Man, are you from Luosang?"

When Tashi saw that there was only one person left at the bottom, he said: "Heroine, I haven't had anything to eat for three days. I'm hanging on this stone pillar out of breath. How can I answer so many of your questions? It's better.

Put me down first, and then I’ll tell you!”

The man below thought for a while: If I put this man down, how can I, a female prostitute, control him? Besides, I don’t know why he was tied to the stone pillar. But the deputy counselor said that he was tied to the stone pillar.

The third uncle came here as a prisoner. The third uncle has always been domineering and domineering, making no distinction between good and bad. It seems that this man does not seem to be a bad person. It is better to let him down, as long as he does not untie the iron rope around him, and find out who he is.

"Hey! Heroine, why are you standing there? Since you are delivering food, let me have a good meal. The food at this high place is really something you can only stare at!"

"Okay! But you have to promise me five things!"

The girl had an idea and I didn't know what she was thinking. Tashi was always impatient, but now she was tired and hungry. It was extremely difficult to hang on a stone pillar that was ten feet high, so she opened her mouth and agreed.

"As long as you put me down to stretch my belly and promise you five things, it doesn't matter! I can't hold it anymore..."

As the chain came down, the bowl of rice was also spilled all over the floor. Tashi quickly sat up, grabbed the rice that had just been spilled on the ground, and stuffed it into his mouth. The girl was a little panicked when she saw Tashi eating and looked back.

He took two steps before he dared to speak.

"Don't forget what you just promised!" He raised his right hand and spread his fingers, and said: "Five things!"

When I regained some energy, I would not think about the five things I promised the girl. After I slowly stood up, I rushed towards the girl angrily, with an expression full of murderous intent. The girl closed her eyes in fright and retreated a few steps.

Bu sat on the ground and shivered! Unfortunately, even though he was put down, the iron rope on his body was still not freed. When he almost reached the girl, the iron rope at the other end still tied his hands and feet within a small area and could not move forward.

Take another half step.

"What a reckless man! You were kind enough to let you go, but you didn't say thank you at all. Instead, you wanted to harm me!" The girl tremblingly recovered from the fright and opened her mouth to curse.

Tashi saw that his hands and feet were tied with iron ropes and could not move. He also saw that the girl in front of him was frightened by his recklessness. He knew that he was a little ashamed, but he could not say a word for a long time. Hearing what the girl said, his face turned red and his heart beat.

After hesitating for a moment, he sat cross-legged on the ground, looking at the sky and scratching his ears.

The girl seemed to notice Tashi's embarrassment, and she had an idea and said, "The beads on your head are so beautiful!"

One sentence brought back the awkward atmosphere. Tashi awkwardly pulled off the beads on her headband and replied: "Girl, these are called coral beads."

"You're a grown man, why do you have so many colorful beads all over your body?"

"You don't understand this. This coral bead and turquoise headband was specially chosen for me by my uncle. This is a custom left over from the mysterious dynasty of Guge..." Speaking of the dress inlaid with Dzi beads and agate,
