Escape: I rely on the food exchange system to survive to the extreme
Chapter 265 Leaving Traces
When Cang came back with the boiled water and saw Mei Qian sitting obediently on the stone platform covered with animal skins, Cang felt something was wrong.
Mei Qian doesn’t seem to be that honest.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have sneaked in and got drunk to cause trouble.
Mei Qianjiancang stood five steps away from her, motionless. Looking at the other person's half face hidden in the darkness, she was somewhat frightened.
I also don't know what this person is thinking deep down.
Mei Qian didn't know what this guy had been through in such a long time. Now all she could do was to lower her eyes silently to avoid being noticed by others.
"Water, take it."
When she received the kettle again, Mei Qian felt the warmth.
She took the kettle and tried it carefully. After realizing that the water in the kettle was not hot, Mei Qian drank several sips under Cang's compelling gaze.
"Where are you taking me, please?"
After drinking the water, Mei Qian tentatively started another conversation.
When Cang left just now, Mei Qian looked at the cave again and again in the light of the fire beside the stone platform.
Mei Qian realized that he was probably in the deepest part of the cave, and the figures reflected in the firelight from somewhere made him quickly calm down.
It looked like none of those figures were anyone she could defeat.
"What do you think?"
Cang asked Mei Qian in return. Mei Qian stared at Cang's face and asked tentatively, "Go back to Xirong?"
After she finished speaking, Cang's eyes changed for a moment. Mei Qian noticed and then asked, "Are you Xirong people already preparing to retreat?"
"Aren't you very happy then?"
Cang's words did sound like he acknowledged Mei Qian's question.
But Mei Qian also answered truthfully: "I would be happier if you didn't tie me up and take me back."
Cang listened to Mei Qian's slightly joking tone and stared at Mei Qian for a while. Mei Qian felt a little uncomfortable being stared at. Her smile gradually faded and she said:
“Since we are retreating, we shouldn’t do anything that will cause us more trouble.
It was not a wise choice for you to suddenly kidnap me."
"Whether it is wise or not is not up to you to decide." After Cang finished speaking, he no longer intended to continue talking to Mei Qian, and only said, "It's getting late, you should go to bed."
After he finished speaking, Mei Qian seemed to have thought of something and gurgled twice in the direction away from Cang, staring at Cang vigilantly and said, "Then close your eyes first."
Cang: “…”
How could he close his eyes in front of Mei Qian?
Compared to Mei Qian who looked at him with a defensive expression, Cang was just as wary.
"Close your eyes first."
Mei Qian: "..."
Who is this?
Mei Qian was being stared at by the other party. She clasped her hands in front of her chest and "obediently" fell on the stone platform, staring back at Cang with an expression as if she was unwilling to close her eyes.
Given Mei Qian's temper, Cang felt that if it were someone else, she would suffer.
Cang walked to the campfire not far from the stone platform, sat there facing Mei Qian, put on his clothes and closed his eyes.
But his eyes seemed to be closed. Mei Qian just lay on the stone platform for a while, and before she even turned half of her body, she could feel Cang opening his eyes again and looking at her.
Mei Qian: "..."
Mei Qian couldn't help but complain a few words in her heart, and then she felt sleepy.
It was probably time. Mei Qian's eyelids could no longer bear the trembling and she eventually fell asleep.
Without her knowing, Qi Fei, who had been looking for Mei Qian for a whole day, was almost going crazy.
"Great! Normally you can't find anything, but now you've found out that more than a dozen carriages and horses of unknown origin have left Lisu in recent days, hahahahahaha..."
Qi Fei was so angry that she laughed.
If you can't find out the problem normally, you're risking your life, right?
They had fooled her one by one, and now that Mei Qian was in trouble and they couldn't find any trace of Mei Qian, they were showing off everything they could find out to her. What was the point? !
"I'll give you one more day to chance. If you still can't find Mei Qian's trace, don't blame me for letting you be skinned on New Year's Day!"
Qi Fei's eyes became bloodshot as he spoke. Min You had been inspecting the military camp in the western suburbs on behalf of Qi Fei the other day, but upon receiving the news, he hurried back.
"Why was Rukong kidnapped for no reason?"
When Min You came back, Lin Manman was reporting the latest discovery to Qi Fei.
Qi Fei had never expected that there was a secret passage under the manor where she settled all the ladies, and it looked like it was not built recently, but a secret passage left a long time ago. Even she, the owner of the manor, didn't know about it.
“That secret passage leads directly to the sheepfold in the backyard of the manor, so even if there is any movement on a normal day, no one will notice it.
Although the place where you rest is not close to the sheepfold, the road there is smooth and it is not a place that people often go to on weekdays. "
In other words, it was understandable that no one discovered Mei Qian in time when she was captured and taken away.
"So, Ruokong was being targeted intentionally?"
"Maybe he's targeting me."
Qi Fei has not forgotten who the owner of the manor is, and whose people Mei Qian brought with him when he went out recently.
"If the Xirong people are so foolish as to mistake Mei Qian for me, it is not impossible for them to kidnap her."
Qi Fei took a deep breath after saying this.
Now she has sent people to trace the direction of the secret passage to see if they can find any traces.
However, compared to this matter, there is another thing that Qi Fei is equally concerned about.
Qi Fei told Min You about the report from his subordinates about a suspicious caravan of carriages and horses appearing in Li Su Prefecture in recent days.
"I didn't know that my Li Su Mansion was almost worn out like a sieve."
Although the officials who reported the matter to her did not confirm whether the carriages and horses were from the Western Rong people, Qi Fei herself had already tacitly acknowledged that this was the fact.
It was precisely because of these previous omissions that Mei Qian was lost quietly.
The more he thought about it, the more Qi Fei's heart felt like it was on fire, and the bloodshot look in his eyes was scary.
Min You's expression was extremely serious after hearing this. However, seeing Qi Fei's anxious look, Min You had to help Qi Fei regain her sanity and said:
"The most important thing right now is to find Rukong first. Does the prince know about Rukong's situation?"
"By the time the emperor's uncle finds out, Mei Qian won't even know where she is!"
As soon as Min You heard it, he knew that Qi Fei hadn't told Qi Chen yet, but Min You sighed and said, "It is our responsibility to find Ruo Kong, but an official is missing. Even if this kind of thing is far away or remote, the prince should know about it."
"I just don't have time for the moment, and I'm afraid if someone else writes it, I'm afraid that my uncle will worry about it. Wait until I find Mei Qian..." Qi Fei spoke too fast, but as she was speaking, she met Min You's disapproving eyes, and her rationality returned a little.
"You go and write."
Min You: “…”
Every time, he is asked to do these crappy jobs, right?
Without looking at Min You, Qi Fei walked out of the house. Min You saw this and hurriedly shouted, "Princess, it's so late, where are you going?"
"It's almost dawn, I'm going to mobilize the troops. The Xirong people have come to me and slapped me in the face. If I don't fight back, I won't be myself!"
···
Mei Qian was woken up again by her stomach discomfort, and as soon as she woke up, she wanted to curse.
At this moment, the back of her neck was still sore and painful. When she thought about how Cang had knocked her out and carried her on a horse to prevent her from waking up and making trouble, Mei Qian wanted to curse even more.
However, even though she cursed in her heart, the first thing Mei Qian did after waking up was to look around.
Judging by the sun and the surrounding terrain, Mei Qian quickly confirmed that his group was moving north.
The northern part of Jianmen Pass...
Mei Qian thought about it, tilted her head, pulled out the small bell at the end of her hairband, and while Cang, who was riding a horse, was not paying attention, threw it to the ground, and threw it all the way.
But the little bell was too small. After Mei Qian threw it away, she felt that she could not pin all her hopes on the bell.
She can't leave Jianmen Pass. If she is really abducted from Jianmen Pass, it will not be so easy for Qi Fei to find herself later.
Mei Qian thought about it, and a hint of madness flashed in her eyes.
The next second, a silver needle taken out from space appeared between her hands that were tied with hemp rope. Mei Qian held the silver needle, took a deep breath, and stabbed it directly into the galloping horse!
Then the horse under him suddenly "went crazy" and frightened Cang who was riding fast. The horse raised its front legs in pain and threw the two people off with a neigh.
"Ugh! I knock!"
The world was spinning before their eyes. Instead of the hero saving the beauty as they had imagined, Mei Qian and Cang were both thrown in different directions and fell heavily!
The gravel on the ground really hurt her!
Mei Qian fell on her back and her vision went dark. At the same time, she heard the Xirong people around her shouting in a language she could not understand.
She tilted her head and looked at Cang, who was helped up by a group of Xirong soldiers with an ugly expression on his face. Her mood became much better.
So good~
It's just a bit of a waste of time.
As if she couldn't bear the pain, she suddenly turned her back, and folded her hands above her head again. She put the pearl hairpin that she had just quietly pulled out of her hair under her body and adjusted its direction. She grabbed a handful of gravel and covered the broken stones with the blood from her hands... (End of this chapter)
