Xuan Yi stopped and asked without looking back: "Why, is there anything else?"
Liu Zhongwen got rid of Yuan Yiqiu's hand that was holding him, walked to Xuan Yi and said sincerely: "Please find her and treat her well. The common people owe her this life and cannot be with her. That is the common people who are not blessed. I hope you can
cherish her."
After speaking, he took out the fragrant purse from his arms and handed it to Xuan Yi and said: "This is from Qi Zi. There is a peace charm in it. Qi Zi said that it is for peace. The common people are not worthy of having it, so I give it to you.
I hope it can help the emperor find Qi Zi safely."
Xuan Yi took the purse and said, "Don't worry, I will find her safely, and I will treat her well, and I will also make her forget you completely, and then all she thinks about is me."
"What a domineering confidence, what a firm belief, Qi Zi, only he is worthy of you." Liu Zhongwen said to himself as he watched Xuan Yi and his party disappear into the night.
Yuan Yiqiu stepped forward and said softly: "Ms. sir, let's go back."
Liu Zhongwen nodded, turned around and entered the yard with his wife. When the door closed with a "clang", a breeze blew through the door, and the autumn leaves on the trees fell melancholy.
It was night, and there were three or two stars twinkling in the sky, and the moon had been hiding in the clouds and refused to show its face.
In this environment where you could vaguely see your fingers with your hand, Qi Zi smiled bitterly. The smile was so evil. If you were timid here, you would be frightened half to death. She rested her head on her head with her baggage.
On the ground, her body huddled up, and she really wanted to sleep to death like this, but she was very awake and not sleepy at all. She listened to the movements around her attentively, without a trace of fear, maybe she was afraid of everything, and these were not considered at all.
What.
Outside the ruined temple, a dark figure was running towards this direction. She was panting heavily and looked back as she ran, as if she was escaping from some pursuit. When she saw a ruined temple, she rushed in without thinking.
Qi Zi heard the noise, straightened up and looked at the figures in the yard, and asked softly: "Who is it? Who is outside."
The visitor was startled and thought: No... no way, could there be someone in this kind of night?
"I'm sorry, I'm being chased. Can you let me go in and hide?"
A woman's voice was full of pleading, Qi Zi said: "Come in, I'm not the master here."
The woman walked in with her eyes wide open. Both sides could only see a blurry shadow. The woman sat aside and asked softly: "Are you being chased too?"
"Being chased?" Qi Zi asked.
"Yes, otherwise how could anyone exist in a place like this in the middle of the night?" she said tremblingly.
Qi Zi looked helplessly at the darkness in the yard and said, "I'm not being chased, I just don't have a place to stay."
"Oh~~~."
"What, are you being chased?"
"Yes, he is a bad guy. You don't know that I just escaped from the fire pit, and there are still a dozen girls who have not escaped."
Qi Zi couldn't understand what she was talking about, and he didn't want to inquire about other things at this time. He just said thoughtfully: "It would be nice to escape."
"What's your name?" the woman asked, with a smile in her voice.
Qi Zi thought for a while and said: "Liang... Yang Qi Zi."
"The name of the medicine is pretty nice. My name is Su Yueling." She introduced herself briskly, without any worry of being chased. I guess she must be a cheerful person.
He vaguely felt her taking something out of her arms, then moved to sit down next to Qi Zi and stuffed something into her hand.
"What is this?" Qi Zi asked inexplicably.
"Eat it, it's steamed buns."
"Steamed bun?"
"Yes, I saved this for my escape. Although it doesn't taste good or soft, it can still satisfy my hunger." Su Yueling still said briskly, full of gratitude for letting her enter the ruined temple.
Qi Zi took a bite, and it tasted like steamed buns. She said, "Thank you, Miss Su."
"You're welcome, eat quickly." After saying that, she started eating by herself.
I haven't eaten anything since morning, and I don't feel hungry. The small bite just now aroused the desire to eat. Is there still a survival instinct in my subconscious? Then please give me a reason to live? What is it?
reason?
After Su Yueling finished eating, she vaguely saw that Qizi was still eating, and said, "Why are you acting like a rich lady? You have to eat quickly."
Qi Zi broke off half of the steamed bun and handed it to her and said, "I'm not very hungry. I'll give you this half."
She hesitated for a moment, then took it in her hand and said, "Thank you."
At this time, a man's voice came from outside the temple, "Brother, there is a ruined temple here."
"Come in and have a look."
Su Yueling stood up and said, "No, they are coming after me." The ruined temple was too small and there was no place to hide.
Qi Zi asked: "Who is it? Who is chasing you?"
"Of course they are here to arrest me, run away." Su Yueling grabbed Qi Zi's hand and walked out, but it was too late.
The door of the ruined temple no longer existed. A dozen big men rushed in without any hindrance. The torches illuminated the ruined temple. Everyone surrounded them. The leader was a big man with a scar face, showing his strong arms and hands.
He took a big knife and took a step forward and said, "You stinky girl, how dare you run away? If it weren't for your beauty, I would have sold you to a low-level brothel."
Only then did Qi Zi clearly see Su Yueling beside him. She was twenty-eight years old, with a graceful figure and a peach-shaped face. Her angry look added a bit of charm. She was a very beautiful girl. No wonder these people wanted to find her in the middle of the night.
"Bah, you guys are a bunch of bad guys with human faces and animal hearts. You specialize in bullying the weak and forcing girls into prostitution. Aren't you afraid of being punished by God for doing such shameful things?" Su Yueling said angrily and loudly.
"Don't worry, even if we are going to be punished by God, it will be in the future. At least we are happy now, hahaha..." Everyone laughed, and everyone looked at Su Yueling with sly eyes.
Su Yueling put on a fight stance, and the scarred man at the head said fiercely: "Forget it, with your little effort, you can't deal with us, so just follow us obediently, otherwise I will definitely fight this time
I won’t let you go.”
"Boss, is there someone else standing next to her?" a boy next to the boss reminded.
Only then did he notice the existence of Qi Zi. Perhaps her clothes and dirty face made everyone present think she was a girl worth noting.
"Take them back together, she is a woman anyway, it will always be useful, hahaha..." He looked at Qi Zi with a wretched and evil smile, and everyone burst into laughter again.
"Shameless." Su Yueling roared, swinging her show fist and hitting the scarred man, but there was his opponent, and he was easily taken down.
She struggled and shouted: "Let me go, let me go."
The scar-faced man twisted Su Yueling's arm with one hand, looked at Qi Zi again and said, "Take her away together."
