【Back 291】Go deep into the deserted village to find the foundation
Jiang Chengjia, who had been silent, finally spoke: "You are rebelling out of the water pavilion and doing such a traitor. Do you still want me to forgive me?"
Qin Ye felt sad: "Master, I had no intention to attack you tonight, I just wanted to trade with you... Now it seems that you have no intention. Since this is the case, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless."
He put the silver knife on Jiang Chengjia's neck with his backhand, and grabbed her and ran towards the group of people fighting on the river bank.
The two of them were half a dozen and half dragged, and they were in extreme embarrassment.
In order not to make Qin Ye suspicious, Jiang Chengjia tried his best to break free from his hands. The more this happened, Qin Ye would make her tighter. In the end, she couldn't let her go with her hands, so she could only let Qin Ye mercy.
On both sides of the river bank, the blue-clothed iron-clad army and the black-clothed guests fought fiercely, and both sides refused to give in. It was not until Qin Ye dragged Jiang Chengjia to the Broken Bridge that the situation loosened a little. Qin Ye shouted at the group of people covered in black veil and wearing blue-clothed robe on the shore: "You are the negotiating commander in my hands! If you dare to act rashly, be careful of her life! Hand over Zhou Qi! I may spare her death!"
The young man held the "fragrant" young man hostage, causing all the blue-clothed iron-armored soldiers to tremble and stop fighting one after another.
Jiang Chengjia took the opportunity to shout: "You don't need to listen to the words of this thief. My life is irrelevant. Keep Zhou Qi well and don't let the traitors have a chance to escape!"
The group of blue-clothed iron-armored soldiers hesitated, stepped forward two steps, and rushed forward with the weapons in their hands.
Qin Ye frowned, and strangled her throat with his arms, looked at the people in front of him with a long look, and then said, "I heard that Xiao Sa is a righteous person, a kind and kind person, and will definitely not give up any of his subordinates when he is in danger... Do you want Xiao Sa to bear the charge of ruthlessness and ungratefulness! Watching his own negotiations with his own eyes makes him die under my knife?"
The blue-clothed iron armored army paused slightly, hesitated, and looked at each other. Qin Ye took this opportunity to retreat behind the black-clothed guests. After confirming safety, he shouted at the river bank: "Border Town Lords! If you still want this person's life, send Zhou Qi here!"
At this moment, one of the green armoured soldiers had a tough attitude and directly put a knife between the unconscious Zhou Yuanmo's neck: "Thief! Is it the only one who takes the hostage? Zhou Qi is a traitor, and it is not an exaggeration to cut him into pieces. Since you want him so much, let the envoy of my city be released! Otherwise, I will immediately make him have his head and head different!"
Qin Ye was stunned and stared at the man's movements carefully. Seeing that although he was very confident, there was no movement for a long time, and the Qingjia Army was also quietly retreating, he felt a bad premonition.
Sure enough, the next moment, a large number of soldiers poured out from the hidden areas of the river bank, and rushed here in heavy rain, besieging the entire Broken Bridge River bank.
Qin Ye made a quick decision and ordered everyone to take Deng Qing, Zhao Fu and Qian Hui to retreat. He himself held Jiang Chengjia hostage and, under the protection of three or four black-clad guests, passed the broken bridge, passed the riverbed, and ran towards the other side.
Li Jian led the soldiers to chase after him. When he saw the group of black-clad guests fleeing everywhere, he immediately ordered the arrest.
Unexpectedly, when these men in black went to the other side, they were like fish in water, and they all disappeared into the entrances of the various gorges and roads.
Jiang Chengjia was captured by Qin Ye, covered her mouth and nose, and crowded with two or three people, she squeezed into the corner of the gorge.
Li Jian's army searched around.
She and Qin Ye were close together, holding their breath and waiting for the soldiers outside the gorge to leave. A sound of footsteps passed by her ears, looking out through the gaps at the gorge, Li Jian happened to lead a team to pass by where they were hiding and rush forward.
Just as Jiang Chengjia was about to scream, he felt a chill on his neck. The snow blade was pressed against her skin. If it was a little deeper, it would cut through the bloodline.
She could only shut up and wait quietly for the pursuers outside to leave.
After a while, the movement outside the gorge finally subsided. The rainwater soaked her whole body, and the straw raincoat on her body was no longer effective. Jiang Chengjia felt that her back was cold. She didn't know whether it was sweat or rain, and she went even further along the knife wound on her back. The wound that had not yet healed was soaked by rain and sweat, emitting a rotten and bloody smell.
After a while, two black-clothed guests protected by Qin Ye looked forward from the entrance of the gorge and confirmed that Li Jian and others had led their troops to retreat from here. Then they carefully came out of the entrance of the gorge.
Jiang Chengjia's legs and feet were weak and he was in great pain due to the injury. However, the plan has reached this point and must not be wasted.
She endured the itchy and tingling feeling of the flesh, followed Qin Ye's footsteps out of the gorge, her lips trembled, and her mouth kept exhaling hot air, and gasped, "Qin Ye... Even if you hold me hostage, you can't exchange it for Zhou Yuanmo. If there is a lord in the city, he will never let Zhou Yuanmo fall into your hands. And... Zhou Yuanmo is already very poisonous. If you want him to survive, you must let me, Deng Qing, Qian Hui and Zhao Fu go back. Otherwise, he will definitely die."
Seeing her fearless appearance of life and death, Qin Ye’s eyes were deep and silence: “Hao Huaiyin is really heartless and actually feeds her brothers who have been with her for many years to poison?”
Jiang Chengjia snorted coldly: "Why did Zhou Yuanmo show mercy to us? He is in the valley on the east side of Cangshan Mountain... he shows no mercy to Junhou and me. Qin Ye, you are here to tell me that Junhou is merciless... don't you think it's ridiculous?"
Qin Ye saw that she didn't look like she was lying, and she was anxious. He believed that Jiang Chengjia would not do anything heartless, but the Huaiyin Marquis in the border town had always been harsh in his methods and hated betrayal the most. Zhou Yuan's journey was here, and he was afraid... in his hands, there was probably no way to survive.
He gritted his teeth and said, "So what if that is the case, you are in my hands, Deng Qing, Zhao Fu and Qian Hui are in my hands... Do he dare to act rashly? If Zhou Yuanmo poison dies, I will not let you go."
The words fell into Jiang Chengjia's ears, which made her tremble. Qin Ye of the past was gone forever. His appearance at this time was like an evil ghost, which made people feel trembling.
Jiang Chengjia no longer made any excuses or struggles. After leaving the canyon, he looked around the mountain quietly, then lowered his eyes and lowered his head.
In the second half of the night, Qin Ye led many black-clad guests to rush around the right bank of Canghe River, avoiding Li Jian's pursuit everywhere.
The rain lasted for most of the night and finally stopped when it was lightly dawn.
Jiang Chengjia was trembling with cold all over, and there was a slight sweat on her forehead. She felt the heat and cold in her body alternated, extremely painful. She was dizzy in front of her eyes, and she was about to fail to hold on and faint. She pinched her arms hard. The numb and painful feeling made her wake up for a moment and continued to stand firm.
When Qin Ye led everyone to the hiding place in the suburbs of the city, a gust of wind blew across the hills around the Canghe River veins, and a black shadow rushed towards the same direction.
Qin Ye was very alert. After confirming that everyone was safe, he captured Jiang Chengjia and came to a deserted village on the outskirts of the city. The place where this village is located is very hidden, sandwiched between two mountains and hills, covered by dense forests and trees, covering them tightly without any gaps. If you don’t look for it carefully, you will not be able to find this village at all.
Jiang Chengjia looked at the nearby environment and finally knew why Xiao Sa ordered people to chase the black-clad guest, but when he arrived at the mountains, he lost clues and searched for the fruitless reasons.
The guests in black walked before Qin Ye, and opened the branches in front of him, and gently entered the deep forest. The scenery in front of him gradually became wider, the sky gradually became brighter, red light suddenly appeared, and the sun rose to the east.
After a night of struggle, a group of thirty or forty men entered.
This quiet village was still covered with silver snow after being showered by a winter rain, and white light overflowed, floating red in the sun, like a huge red dragon dancing in it, shining brightly.
After walking a few more steps forward, the group heard a collision of weapons coming from the courtyard. He listened with his ears and felt a slight sound of footsteps coming from the front.
Forty or fifty people came from all over the village again, and asked vigilantly at the people in front of the village: "Who is outside the village?"
Jiang Chengjia looked at the black paint pressing from the distance, and relieved in her heart.
As she expected, Qin Ye only brought half of his men to the Broken Bridge tonight. If they encountered an accident on both sides of the Canghe River, this group of people who stayed here would probably go to rescue soldiers immediately.
She thought about it secretly, and then she heard Qin Ye's deep voice reply in her ears: "It's me..."
The young man in the village was slightly stunned, then came up and asked, "Qin Xiaolangjun? Is the matter done? Can you rescue Zhou Langjun?"
He took two steps forward and saw Qin Ye capturing a strange man in his arms. He immediately made a bell and said with great caution: "Who is this person?"
Qin Ye calmed down and said naturally: "He is the negotiator sent by Xiao Sa..."
The young man who asked the questioning thought about this situation and had a guess: "Things... haven't been done successfully?"
Qin Yeyao said helplessly: "Mr. Zhou is still in Xiao Sa's hands, I cannot rescue him. But... Long Hu is already in my hands."
The young man trembled with joy and said, "It's true!"
Jiang Chengjia leaned silently beside Qin Ye, secretly looking at the young man in front of him, listening to his tone, narrowing his eyes to guess his identity.
The man was deliberately covered with mud, and he couldn't see his true appearance clearly. He was tall and burly. Compared with Qin Ye, he was half a head taller. His walking posture and his method of practicing weapons exposed the fact that he had been to the army. He was wearing a thick straw raincoat and a flat hat, and his voice was very rough.
Qin Ye replied to the man: "With this Longhu, your brother and father can be saved."
The young man said excitedly: "So...what about the other brothers? With this dragon husk, can you bring them too..."
Before this person finished speaking, Qin Ye interrupted: "There is only one Longhu plant. It is the limit to make medicine for three people. The other brothers... can only find a way."
The young man's expression instantly turned from joy to love: "The only dragon husk left in Deng Qing's hand... This medicine is extremely difficult to find. Three or four brothers have died in the iceberg... What other solutions can be done?"
Qin Ye frowned and sighed, "This matter will be discussed later. We have experienced a fierce battle, and the brothers have been injured... Find someone to bandage them."
The young man looked behind him and saw that everyone was wet and full of embarrassment. He nodded and said, "Here, I will arrange it for my brothers."
Qin Ye grabbed Jiang Chengjia and was about to walk into the village.
The young man called him and said, "Qin Xiaolangjun! This negotiator...what do you plan to deal with it? Is it inappropriate to keep him in the village?"
His gaze like a poisonous snake glanced back and forth on Jiang Chengjia, full of repulsion and resistance to her.
Qin Ye: "I have some things to ask this person... Besides, keeping her is of some use. Don't worry, the tails that follow me have been cleaned up. No one will find this."
The young man showed hesitation and was still worried.
