That day, Huo Xi and a group of his men were watching the excitement at the Yibang market. Although it was located on the border and the people of all Yi ethnic groups lived a difficult life, there were always people buying and selling goods in the market.
It was extremely lively. Huo Xi couldn't stop watching it and was in a happy mood.
Unexpectedly, his face was covered and he was lost. When he woke up, he found that he had been kidnapped in the mountains.
I wonder if he got the news? He must be very anxious.
Huo Xi sighed. "I'm thirsty. Can you give me some water?"
There was no response for a while.
She thought they would ignore her again, but she didn't expect something to touch her mouth, and water flowed to her chin. Huo Xi reacted, opened her mouth hurriedly, and swallowed...
No more. "Is there more?"
Feeling the water container touching her face again, Huo Xi tilted her head slightly, and the container fell to the ground. From the sound, it looked like a wooden water bowl or cup.
"I'm sorry, I can't see. Can you untie the cloth on my eyes? You tie my hands behind my back. I am a weak woman and I can't escape."
After speaking, she listened carefully to the sound, but there was no response for a long time. Then Huo Xi was pushed to the ground, and at the same time she felt the person sitting next to her.
When the voice started to speak, it was still something Huo Xi couldn't understand. He could hear the voices of three men, and maybe a woman?
Huo Xi was not sure.
Her hands were tied behind her back and her eyes were blindfolded. Someone was walking beside her, pulling her from time to time. She could feel that the person grabbing her arm did not look like a man.
The water he gave her just now made her feel that she looked more like a woman. She just didn't know how old she was.
But I've never heard her make a sound. Maybe it's a young man?
Huo Xi didn't know where they were taking her, and she was extremely anxious. If it was in the mountains, it would be easy to hide someone, and Zhufenggan and others might not be able to find her.
What Huo Xi didn't know was that she had been changed hands several times. Zhufeng and Gansan were lost several times and led to several places.
According to Jun Mingzhang's intention, he wanted to kidnap her, send her to the border, sell her to the people there, and sell her to a neighboring country at a high price to be used as a slave, a maid, or a concubine.
No matter whether it is sold to the cold country, Laos or Siam, or whether it is sold overseas from Siam, it will just follow the fate of others.
Jun Mingzhang's goal was achieved by only erasing the traces of Huo Xi, making Mu Yan unable to find anyone, and making him miserable.
Mu Yan broke one of his legs and ruined his life. He sold his beloved to let him experience the pain of life.
Didn't Mu Yan want to guard the border and protect the people of Dianchi Lake? He couldn't even protect his own wife, so who could he protect?
When Jun Mingzhang learned that his servants had sent a message and that Manager Hua had succeeded, he laughed so hard in the room that he burst into tears.
Hearing that Mu Yan, the master's teacher, had returned to Kunming City, he had gone to Yibang to look for him, and Jun Mingzhang didn't care.
"Let him find him. Even if he comes back, the man named Zhang is no longer clean. I want to see what he will do! Keep pretending to be a loving couple? I'm afraid he will feel as if he has swallowed a fly. But if he neglects his beloved wife,
I'm afraid his good father-in-law won't be able to spare him! I wonder how he can continue to be the heir apparent! His biological father doesn't kiss him, and his father-in-law doesn't support him either, hahaha..."
Killing several birds with one arrow made Jun Mingzhang feel extremely happy and overjoyed.
As per his plan, Huo Xi has changed hands several times in order to erase the traces.
At this time, Huo Xi didn't know where she was. The people around her probably couldn't even understand Chinese.
Huo Xi was anxious in her heart, but she didn't want to give up. The group took a break and were about to move on when Huo Xi shouted: "I want to relieve myself!" and made a squatting motion.
The steps stopped.
Huo Xi was pulled for a few steps, and then forced to squat down. The person next to her came up to untie her dress. Huo Xi twisted her body to avoid it, "You are like this, I can't untie it!"
The movement stops.
After several trials, Huo Xi understood that there was someone in the team who could speak Chinese! The man next to him never spoke out. Maybe this person knew Chinese.
"Can you untie my hand? You can tie one of my hands. I won't run away. I can't see my eyes and I can't untie them. Can you untie the cloth on my eyes?"
After waiting for a moment, Huo Xi felt that the hands behind his back were untied and his left arm was tied again, but the cloth covering his eyes was not untied.
Huo Xi's right hand was freed. She moved, but did not make any move.
I groped around with my hands and raised my feet to try around. There were shrubs. I guess it was a place to avoid people.
Huo Xi squatted down and unbuttoned her dress... When she was done, she pretended not to care. When she touched the blindfold, she quickly raised her head and looked around...
It’s a dense forest in the mountains!
There are towering trees everywhere. Looking towards the sound of running water, it turns out that there is really a rapid river in the forest...
When you take a closer look, you are greeted by a pair of dry well-like eyes, empty and without warmth.
Huo Xi was startled. She swallowed her saliva nervously, "Well, I didn't mean to do that. The cloth just rubbed off accidentally..."
In front of him was a woman, about forty or fifty years old. She was dressed in black, with a shirt and trousers, and several black cloth wraps around her head. She didn't know which barbarian tribe she was from. Huo Xi couldn't tell.
Seeing that the other party was a woman, Huo Xi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, because she had already tested out that the other party must be able to speak Chinese. Even if she couldn't speak it, she could certainly understand it.
He begged, "Can you stop blindfolding me? I can't see the road, it's difficult to move around, and it's delaying your schedule. If you tie me up, I can't escape."
The two looked at each other, deadlocked.
There was a sound of inquiry not far away. The woman glanced over there, walked towards Huo Xi along the rope she was holding, tied her hands behind her back again, pushed her again, and signaled her to move forward.
.
Huo Xi took two steps to realize that the other party had not blindfolded her again!
"Thank you." He whispered.
The other person's hand holding her arm paused, but still made no sound and just pulled her forward.
Huo Xi saw clearly. There were three men in front of her, all dressed as barbarians. They were not tall, but they looked very strong.
Seemingly seeing that the woman was not blindfolded, Huo Xi started chattering. The woman was silent at first, and then started gesticulating with several men.
Is she mute? Huo Xi looked at her in surprise.
She didn't know what they said, but Huo Xi only saw three men looking at Huo Xi up and down. They didn't say anything, and they didn't blindfold her anymore. They turned around and walked forward.
Do you think she is a weak female who is tied up and unable to escape?
No matter what, Huo Xi breathed a sigh of relief. Who wants to be blind? His eyes regained sight, and he walked all the way, observing the surrounding terrain.
The woman next to her noticed something, and her eyes fell on Huo Xi from time to time. But she made no move.
He just walked silently beside her, pushing her from time to time, and when she was about to fall, he lifted her upright in mid-air.
"Thanks."
Seeing that the three men were some distance away from them, Huo Xi asked her quietly: "Can you understand what I am saying? Are you Han?"
