Traveling through the ancient times

Chapter 97: The New Year's painting was taken home by a man

The man drove the carriage and started on the road again. Chushouhua didn't know where he was going. She was not familiar with the outside of the city...

Nianchuhua looked at the swinging car curtain and carefully reached her hand into her waistband. There was a handful of leaves, which she had secretly picked when she was squatting there to relieve herself.

Holding his breath, he took out a leaf with great effort and carved the word "SOS" on the leaf with his fingernails.

She had been missing for so long, Hua Ling must be looking for her everywhere. She had agreed with Hua Ling before that if she encountered danger, she would use "SOS" as a code word for help.

Moreover, if Jiang Ruixue knew that she was missing, she would definitely look for her. This way of asking for help could more clearly express her identity.

The man was driving the carriage outside and did not notice Nian Chuhua in the carriage. He thought that the girl was quite smart and did not make any fearless struggle because she knew she could not escape.

At this time, the clever Nian Chuhua was carefully stuffing a piece of picked leaf out from the gap in the carriage. Nian Chuhua stuffed a leaf out every few steps until all the leaves were thrown away.

Time passed little by little. On the way, the man only stopped once to feed Nian Chuhua something to eat, and then he kept walking until dark. They did not stay in an inn. The man built a fire on the side of the road and roasted meat, which he got from somewhere. After a while, they could smell the aroma of meat.

At the beginning of the year, the man placed the painting under a tree. He sat with his back against the trunk. When he smelled the aroma of meat, he couldn't help swallowing.

The man noticed her movements and raised the almost roasted meat in his hand, "Do you want to eat it?"

Nian Chuhua blinked hard, and the man handed her the meat with a smile. Nian Chuhua took it and ate it with big mouthfuls. It tasted average without any seasoning, but now was not the time to be particular. Maybe if she ate more, she would recover her strength faster.

The man did not give Nian Chuhua any more medicine, so Nian Chuhua's strength was slowly returning. Although it was very slow, Nian Chuhua felt much better now than in the morning.

After finishing the whole piece of meat, Chushunhua wiped her mouth with her sleeve and looked at the man, wondering where he was going to take her and what he was going to ask her to do there.

The man looked at Chu Nian Hua, who had a frown on his face and seemed to be hesitant to speak, and asked, "Do you want to talk?"

A nod at the beginning of the year...

"I can let you speak, but you can't shout, otherwise... I will cut off your tongue and roast it for you to eat." The man said the cruelest words in the most gentle tone.

Chushunhua nodded, indicating that she would not yell...

Seeing that Nian Chuhua was so cooperative, the man rummaged through his sleeve pocket to find a porcelain bottle, opened it and smelled it, then poured out a pill and handed it to Nian Chuhua, saying, "Eat it."

Nianchuhua took it, looked at it in her hand, and put it in her mouth. She couldn't understand it anyway, and it was just a little bit off. Although she was also very scared, a cold feeling spread in her throat, like eating a throat lozenge.

"Ah..." Nianchuhua tried to speak softly. Is it ok?

"Aren't you afraid that I'll give you another poison pill?"

"If you wanted to poison me, wouldn't you have done it long ago? Why did you have to wait until now?"

The man was surprised. He didn't expect that she would use what he said to stop him...

"Give me a drink of water!" Nian Chuhua stretched out his hand to the man. He had just eaten a large piece of barbecue, and his mouth was greasy and dry.

The man obediently handed the water bag to Nian Chuhua, and watched Nian Chuhua tilt his head back and pour some water into his mouth without sticking to his lips. One sip did not quench his thirst, so he took a few more sips and almost drank up all the water in the water bag. Only then did he return the water bag to him contentedly.

"You're welcome!" The man shook the water bag, and there was probably still a mouthful of water left...

"Why should I be polite to you? Can't I eat and drink enough before I die?" Nian Chuhua pretended to be indifferent.

"Who said you were going to die?"

"You won't kill me?"

"Why should I kill you?" The man raised his eyebrows and looked at Nian Chuhua.

"If you don't want to kill me, why did you capture me?"

"If I catch you, do I have to kill you?"

"Didn't you say yourself that you killed all the women you captured?"

"That's because they were disobedient and pissed me off, so I killed them. Since you're so obedient, I won't kill you."

“…” Then thank you very much!

Seeing that Nian Chuhua didn't respond and was thinking about something, the man warned, "Don't have any bad ideas, or I will kill you."

At the beginning of the year, I drew "..."

Can any idea be as bad as yours? You always want to kill...

"I know, what did you put on me? Why does it stink so bad?" After eating, Nian Chuhua couldn't help but feel disgusted with herself. This smell was really bad...

"Dead rat."

What? Chushouhua was feeling around to see if there was a dead mouse...

"You were probably with it for a long time in the carriage, so you got some of it on you."

This is damn bad fun...

"So where are we going now?" Nian Chuhua asked casually, looking at the crackling flames in the fire.

"go home!"

"Go home? Go back to your home?"

The man nodded... and didn't want to say more!

At the beginning of the year, Hua continued to ask, "How long will it take to get there?"

The man raised his eyes and looked at Nianchuhua. "Are you really not afraid at all?"

"Are you scared? Will you let me go?"

"will not"

"That's fine. I'm going to go through this with you whether I'm afraid or not." The more stubborn he was in words, the more cowardly he was in his heart.

The man looked at Nianchuhua thoughtfully and chuckled, "Go upstairs and have a rest. We will arrive tomorrow."

Chushulhua obediently stood up, climbed onto the carriage and threw the dead rat far away. Then he lay down and thought carefully.

They walked for a day after leaving the city and would arrive tomorrow, which meant that they were not very far from the city. If they rode horses, they might be able to find it in half a day.

I wonder if the leaves she threw were found by the people who were looking for her...

This man is indeed a weird guy. He has captured so many women for a purpose, but he is not like what we see on TV, where he beats or scolds the captured women. As long as you don't make any noise, he is quite nice to you.

Did he capture the girl to be his wife because he couldn't find a wife? But looking at the man, he didn't look like someone who couldn't find a wife!

I stayed up all night at the beginning of the year. No matter how much I said I was not afraid, we were about to reach the enemy's lair. If I could sleep well, I was really brave.

The next day, just after daybreak, the man started his journey. A leaf fell through the gap in the car and lay quietly not far from the fire.

At the beginning of the year, Hua's strength had recovered a lot, but compared to a normal person, she was still a little weak, and she thought about running away.

But then she thought again, this man was able to abduct Hua Ling without anyone noticing with just one breath, which meant that his martial arts skills were not comparable to her newly learned kung fu. If she ran away now, she would be killed on the spot if she was caught...

Be patient, I hope my teammates can find her sooner!

Lu Mingqian and Lu Mingcheng rode their horses at full speed. Along the way, they thought of many possibilities in their minds. Who abducted Chu Nianhua? Was she captured by some pervert to drain her blood and make medicine? Or was she sold somewhere?

The longer it gets, the more terrifying it becomes. No matter which situation it is, they cannot accept it. They must find the person back before those people succeed!

It took only eight or nine hours to reach the gate of Qunan City instead of two days' journey.

The guards of the palace saw it immediately and ran towards their prince. One guard shouted, "His Highness is back!"

Lu Mingqian and his companion dismounted, and the guards came to greet them, "Your Highness, you are finally back!"

Lu Mingqian took a quick look. There were people from his house, people from Lu Mingcheng's house, and the city guards. "What's the situation? Any news?"

"Your Highness, there is no news about Miss Nian's whereabouts yet. Lord Zhou has closed the city gates. We have searched the city thoroughly but have not found her. Our subordinates suspect that the thieves have left the city through a secret passage, so we began to look for her outside the city..." The guard carefully told Lu Mingqian the current situation.

After leaving the city gate, there are many roads leading to various places, and there are many small roads beside the official road. They couldn't find the whereabouts of Nian Chuhua for a while.
