Xu Zizhen was a little strange. There were Song people in Tubo, but they usually did business in the periphery of Tubo. However, he remembered that he had been in Tubo for several days. It was said that he was already deep in Tubo. How could there be such a thing?
Such a little girl? And she doesn’t look like a businesswoman, but more like a slave.
But before he opened his mouth, Lin Zhi spoke again, his face looking very serious and heavy.
"Brother, the sister you were with was captured by Mr. Cangba. Tomorrow, he will offer sacrifices to the gods and ask that sister to marry him."
Xu Zizhen was shocked, Mr. Cangba? Arrested Su San to get married? Damn it, this is a slave country after all, and there are people who blatantly snatch the bride.
He quickly asked: "What's going on? Who is this Cangba? What did he do to Su San?"
Lin Zhi didn't seem to know how to express herself. She tilted her head and thought for a moment before replying: "Master Cangba is the richest master here. He has many cattle and sheep and many slaves. That sister didn't suffer anything. It's just Master Cangba who caught you."
came, so she didn’t seem to dare to resist, so she was tied up and sent into the house.”
Xu Zizhen breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that he was just a rich man. It was easy to handle. So what if there were more people. Then the bastard had a special bridal chamber. How could a rich man beat Su San?
But just as he thought of this, Lin Zhi said again: "Brother, I think that sister is very dangerous. Mr. Cangba has a medicine that can turn good women into bad women. There were several female slaves like this in the past. They originally refused
I followed him, but after taking that medicine, I slept with him."
Lin Zhi was naive and naive, and what she said did not express what she meant, but Xu Zizhen understood clearly. That bastard had done such bad things before. No matter how skilled Su San was, it would be useless. Lin Zhi had already said that she was tied up and would be killed when the time came.
If you force yourself to take the medicine, it will be too late.
Xu Zizhen's vision went dark in shock and anger, and he almost fell into coma again, but he persisted. Su San was in danger, so he must not faint at this time.
His mind was spinning rapidly, but now that he couldn't move, he couldn't save himself at all, let alone find a way to save others. The Lin Zhi in front of him was pretty good, but he was too young after all.
For the first time in his life, Xu Zizhen knew what it meant to be helpless. He could see it clearly now. He was lying in a simple hut, surrounded by neatly stacked bundles of hay. It seemed that he belonged to Mr. Cangba's house.
I didn’t know that the stable was a sheep pen.
The sky was very nice today, the white moonlight shone on the ground, and even the distant mountain peaks showed an obvious outline.
As soon as Xu Zizhen cast his eyes there, his heart suddenly moved and he asked hurriedly: "Little sister Linzhi, where is this? Is it close to Lhasa?"
Lin Zhi said: "Oh, this is called Medog City. Lhasa is about... more than two hundred miles to the west."
Xu Zizhen's heart sank. He originally had a glimmer of hope that he could persuade Lin Zhi to help him go to Lhasa to find reinforcements, whether it was the eldest princess Zhuoya, the little princess Duoqi Dolma, or even just Uncle Ciyang.
But more than two hundred miles...Ling Zhi is just a child. Even if she is willing to take the risk and sneak out to report the news, how can she run so far? And even if she can go, it is still such a long distance to wait for the reinforcements to arrive.
It's all too late.
Seeing that he suddenly became silent, Lin Zhi couldn't help but ask: "Brother, are you asking Lhasa to find someone to rescue you?"
What a smart kid!
Xu Zizhen secretly praised it in his heart, but at this time he had no other thoughts and just nodded silently.
Lin Zhi asked curiously: "Do you know anyone in the palace?"
Xu Zizhen sighed softly: "I know, I know Princess Zhuo Ya and the little princess, but what can I do? The water far away cannot save the fire near, Su San will..." tomorrow
Lin Zhi suddenly interrupted him in surprise: "Do you know our goddess? But she is not in the palace, she is near here."
"What?... around here?" Xu Zizhen raised his head in excitement, the surprise in his eyes was indescribable.
Lin Zhi nodded heavily: "Don't you know? The goddess has always lived at the foot of the snow-capped mountains and by the Yalong River. There is a palace built for her by His Majesty the King of Tubo. From here, it only takes a few dozen miles to walk across.
You can reach the river soon."
A few dozen miles? If we traveled all night, we would be back at dawn, and Su San would be saved! But... alas! Even so, these roads are still too far for a little girl like Lin Zhi, in case something unexpected happens along the way.
What should I do? Then I will definitely feel guilty for the rest of my life.
When Xu Zizhen thought of this, he coughed violently and coughed up several mouthfuls of blood.
Lin Zhi had never seen such a battle before, and her face turned pale with fright. She was helpless and could only rub his chest with her hands, crying: "Brother, please stop coughing, Zhi'er is scared!"
Xu Zizhen took a deep breath, held back his cough, raised his hand with difficulty, stroked Lin Zhi's hair, and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid, big brother is fine." After saying this, he deliberately made a face.
.
Lin Zhi slowly stopped crying, but her hands were still gently rubbing Xu Zizhen's chest, appearing extremely considerate and sensible. Xu Zizhen felt a warmth in his chest, and an inexplicable sense of intimacy arose.
After a moment, Lin Zhi's hand suddenly stopped, she raised her little face and asked curiously: "Brother, do you really know the goddess sister?"
Do we know each other? That Bingshan girl and I are more than just acquaintances.
Xu Zizhen thought of the days and nights he spent with Zhuo Ya. When he accidentally walked into the wrong house and touched the wrong person, he was "killed" by Zhuo Ya all the way, but the way that silly girl killed people was unheard of.
Thinking of this, his expression became more and more gentle, and a smile appeared in his eyes: "Of course I know her, I don't know if she is still angry with me, but I think... if she knew that I was hurt like a tortoise,
The dog will definitely come to save me."
Lin Zhi was still young and was confused by Xu Zizhen's words. She scratched her head and said, "Will she definitely come to save you? By the way, big brother, what's your name?"
"My name is Xu Zizhen." Xu Zizhen touched her head and smiled, "Although I don't know how long I can live, I am very happy to know a little sister like you before I die."
"Xu Zizhen, Xu Zizhen..." Lin Zhi muttered several times in a low voice, and suddenly raised her face with a bright smile, "Brother, you will not die. I will go find the goddess sister now. As you said, she will come to save you."
It’s yours.”
"What? No!" Xu Zizhen was startled. He really didn't want this innocent little girl to run such a long way in such a late night.
Lin Zhi gave him a sweet smile: "Don't worry, brother, I'm very good at riding a horse, and no one will notice me even if I sneak out, because no one will care about me, just like they left you here."
