Chapter 766: My wife has been kidnapped!
Lu Qingqing was setting up camp, so she signaled to Old Man Zhuang to give her some firewood.
Old Man Zhuang had heard what she had said before and felt very sympathetic towards the poor little girl.
Immediately, he took a large handful of firewood from his own pile and put it in the car for her.
Sun Yue wanted to give him some money, but Old Man Zhuang refused to accept it.
After a while, when Old Man Zhuang was cooking, Sun Yue brought over a whole hot roast chicken.
This time, she was afraid that the two would not accept it, so she put down the roast chicken and ran back.
Old Man Zhuang looked at the fragrant roast chicken and swallowed his saliva.
"Qing girl, this roast chicken smells so delicious, let's take it.
At worst, I can find time to make more dry food in the next two days.
Give some more to the little girl to return the favor."
Lu Qingqing glanced at Sun Yue on the other side and finally decided not to send the roast chicken back.
After dinner, the two men combed the ice off the horse's body.
Lu Qingqing set up the white bell before returning to the tent.
Looking at the unconscious Qin Lang, Old Man Zhuang decided to give him another try of acupuncture.
The two lit several candles until the tent was bright.
Old man Zhuang then took out the silver needle and started acupuncture.
After the acupuncture was completed, Qin Lang just moved his fingers a few times as usual.
Although the two were a little disappointed about this, they were mentally prepared.
This time, as usual, two people took turns to keep watch.
Here, they have become accustomed to living outdoors.
In the carriage not far away, Sun Yue was hugging the quilt and huddled in the carriage.
Looking at the pitch-black carriage, I was so scared that I huddled into a ball.
Although she had expected that life after escaping would not be easy, she did not expect it to be so difficult.
Listening to the howling wind in the silent wilderness, her thoughts slowly drifted away.
Thinking of their dead sister, Young Master Xiao who abused them, and their parents who sold them.
That fear made her body tremble slightly.
She forced herself to stop thinking too much and think about people and things that would not make her afraid.
Thinking of this, the image that appeared in my mind was the thin figure who killed Young Master Xiao with ease.
Thinking that he was in the tent not far away, Sun Yue slowly relaxed and fell asleep.
Nothing happened all night.
The next day, Lu Qingqing got up to cook, while Old Man Zhuang continued to give Qin Lang acupuncture.
But the person still didn't wake up.
Sun Yue woke up almost as soon as Lu Qingqing got up.
She washed off the disguise on her face, changed into women's clothes, and started cooking.
Worried that Lu Qingqing was in a hurry, he hurriedly heated up the food he had hastily packed in the city yesterday.
I took out a few good ones and sent them to her.
"Young man, I heated up some food, please don't be disgusted."
Lu Qingqing refused:
"You don't need this meal, Miss Sun, you can save it for the journey.
By the way, my surname is Lu, and my given name is Qing."
Sun Yue was rejected again and felt a little disappointed.
But when I knew Lu Qingqing's name, I felt a little happy inside.
Old Man Zhuang came out of the tent and just saw Sun Yue coming to deliver food.
A light bulb went off in his head.
The way this little girl from the Sun family behaves, could it be that she mistook Qing for a boy?
Oh my, this is really...
He turned around to look at Qin Lang, who was still unconscious in the tent, and was secretly shocked.
You little bastard, if you don’t wake up, your wife will be kidnapped!
After Lu Qingqing rejected Sun Yue, she also realized something was wrong.
She thought about it and stopped speaking in a hoarse voice.
Thinking of the delicious roast chicken I ate yesterday, I said to Sun Yue in a normal voice:
"Miss Sun, the world is in chaos these days, with robberies and murders everywhere.
If you are a girl traveling alone, it is safer to dress as a man.
You see, I cut my hair and spoke in a rough voice on purpose.
In this way, fewer people will recognize it and a lot of trouble will be avoided.
In addition, if you go further south, it will take at least ten days or half a month to reach the next city.
You should be frugal with your food."
After saying this, he stopped looking at the stunned Sun Yue and squatted down to continue working.
Before Sun Yue recovered from her shock, she heard Old Man Zhuang say loudly:
"Qing girl, your husband's fingers are moving again, come and see."
When Lu Qingqing heard the word "husband", the corners of her mouth twitched.
Why does it sound so awkward when this old man refers to her husband?
Looking at Sun Yue who was stunned beside her, she did not refute and responded:
"Hey, here we come!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran to the entrance of the tent.
Looking at Qin Lang who was still unconscious inside, he stretched his muscles again.
On the other side, Sun Yue was stunned by the news!
The young man is a woman?
Not only women, but also husbands?
The little bit of affection that had just arisen was crushed to pieces by the word "husband".
Sun Yue returned to her carriage in a daze, not knowing how she finished her breakfast.
When I came to my senses again, I had already set off following Lu Qingqing's carriage.
Two days later, scattered refugees began to appear on the road again.
Lu Qingqing took out the bloody knife and hung it on the front of the car.
With this deterrent, I basically never encounter car chases and robberies.
Sun Yue, who was following behind, also witnessed the difficulties of fleeing famine over the past two days.
After several adjustments, the black and yellow makeup on the face became more and more realistic.
With the thick cotton-padded jacket on his body as a cover, at first glance he looked like a short and thin man.
After being chased by refugees once, she was so scared that she followed Lu Qingqing's carriage closely.
After running for two days, her horse was a little exhausted.
After all, Lu Qingqing had two horses that she took turns riding, and she was traveling all day long.
Sun Yue only has one horse.
There was no other way, she could only feed him more carefully.
Every time they stopped, she quickly unloaded the carriage so that the horses could rest more.
Next, the horses were given more food and water.
The proportion of refined grains is increasing.
I originally thought that the bags of food I bought at that time would last for several days.
It seems that it is consumed quite quickly.
Under the pressure of survival, her previous embarrassment was also washed away.
Now, more thoughts are focused on how to survive.
In the past two days, she used her money to buy two straw mats and two tattered mattresses from Lu Qingqing and made a simple windbreak.
I also bought a horse brush and brushed the horse's hair like Lu Qingqing did.
In addition, he bought a knife from Lu Qingqing and practiced swinging it every day.
Seeing that her enthusiasm was no longer overwhelming, Lu Qingqing occasionally gave her some advice.
This little girl is very tenacious, putting aside the initial awkwardness.
Her strong will to survive made her look at her with new eyes.
