Escape: I rely on the food exchange system to survive to the extreme

Chapter 266 Package Swapping
"what!"

Late at night, Jiang suddenly sat up from the kang, opened her eyes and wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.

"what happened?"

Mei Erhu heard the noise. Today was New Year's Eve and the oil lamp in the house was still on. He could clearly see the fear on Jiang's face.

"I, I seemed to have dreamt about Qianqian, and she seemed to be injured."

"Hey! Don't think too much about it. Aren't the Jiangbei and the other side going to be unified? How could our daughter get hurt?"

When Mei Erhu heard what Jiang said, he got out of bed wearing his cotton coat. Jiang poured him a cup of warm water which was placed at the foot of the kang.

"Who knows, maybe our family will be able to celebrate the New Year together next year."

Even though Mei Erhu said so, Jiang's heart was still pounding fast. She drank water in small sips and watched Mei Erhu carry Mei Li, who had fallen asleep against the wall for some reason, back to her room and cover her with a quilt.

"Some time ago, someone sent money to our family, but there was no letter. They just sent a message saying everything was fine... What is this child busy with all day? It would be good if she could bring back a few words."

Jiang was complaining about Mei Qian not writing back, but in fact she was worried that Mei Qian might have been held up by some urgent matter.

"Jiangbei has finally fought back, how could there not be a lot of trouble?" Mei Erhu kept comforting Jiang, although he was actually a little worried in his heart.

His mother burned incense for his father today, and then grumbled for a long time.

She said that her father has not been diligent at all this year. He didn't come to talk to her even though it's almost the New Year. At least he should let Mei Qian know that he is safe, right?

There was no result.

Thinking of this, Mei Erhu became a little worried.

But looking at Jiang's worried face, he dared not show anything.

"How about we ask the Lin family tomorrow?"

"Master Lin didn't even come back for the New Year, and I'm worried about all this already. Why are you bothering me with these questions..."

Jiang glared at Mei Erhu, and Mei Erhu scratched his head embarrassedly and couldn't help sighing.

Sure enough, every family has its own troubles.

On the first day of the new year, the death knell suddenly rang in the Yaolin Palace.

···
"hiss!"

Mei Qian suddenly woke up from her dream and opened her eyes in pain. She soon discovered a more cruel truth - Cang's team seemed to have joined forces with some other team.

Otherwise, she wouldn't be sitting in the carriage now.

"woke up?"

Suddenly hearing Cang's voice, Mei Qian turned her head and saw Cang sitting there, while she was still lying in the carriage tied up. The wounds on her hands had formed blood scabs and did not look like they had been treated.

"If you can't ride a horse, don't ride it."

The first thing Mei Qian said when she woke up was to criticize Cang's horse riding skills. Cang did not change his expression immediately, but just asked back: "Isn't it you who did it?"

"You have to provide evidence when you speak. How could I do that? Would I do that? I fell and fainted. Am I seriously ill?"

Mei Qian was full of resentment and rolled her eyes at Cang, saying, "Can you help me up?"

"What are you going to do?"

"See if I broke any arms or legs because of you."

Looking at Mei Qian's appearance, it couldn't be fake. Cang had checked his horse long before the accident and didn't find any wounds. It certainly didn't look like Mei Qian had done anything to it.

Out of suspicion, he deliberately tried to trick the other party, but he failed to win and looked at the disheveled man with his hair disheveled after falling off his horse.

Coupled with the resentment she had just felt after waking up, Cang felt that Mei Qian would scare people to death if she went out now.

Like a female ghost wandering in the wilderness.

Thinking this, he reluctantly stretched out a hand and helped the man up.

Mei Qian was tied up. She moved her legs and raised her arms. Fortunately, they did not look broken.

After Mei Qian finished the test, he looked up at the carriage and said, "Where did you get this carriage? Wouldn't it be better if it was like this at the beginning?"

Cang raised his eyes to look at Mei Qian, and saw that she started to ask questions and test him as soon as she woke up, so he ignored her completely.

Seeing that the other party ignored her and closed his eyes to rest, Mei Qian turned her head to look at the curtain behind her. She couldn't help but reach out to open the carriage to take a look. As a result, she heard: "If you lift the curtain, I will chop off your hand."

Mei Qian: "..."

Mei Qian glared at him again, reluctantly put down her hand, and continued to ask, "Are you so afraid that I will lift the car curtain? Are you afraid that someone outside will see me and recognize me?"

"I think you should stop wasting your time talking to me about this."

"Then if you have any questions to ask me later, I won't tell you."

"It's up to you. I have plenty of ways to make you speak when the time comes."

Mei Qian:? ? ?
Is this the difference between villains in movies and TV shows and real-life villains?
In movies and TV series, the heroine just says something and the other person explodes. In real life, I'm too lazy to talk to you, so you'd better not talk too much.

Mei Qian was so angry that she turned her back, then turned her head to glare at Cang, who still had his eyes closed. After a snort, she fell to the ground with a loud "bang", with her back to Cang.

Cang opened his eyelids and saw Mei Qian's helpless and sulking look, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and then he closed his eyes again.

Mei Qian remained motionless in this position for a long time.

[Xiaomei, is he asleep? Is he still closing his eyes? ]

[He should not be asleep, but his eyes are still closed.]

At this time, Xiaomei acted as the eyes on the back of Mei Qian's head, keeping watch for Mei Qian.

With her back to Cang, Mei Qian curled up with her bound hands and feet. Mei Qian took out a small blade from the space and held it in her palm. Then she let a little bit of it out through her fingers and slowly rubbed the hemp rope on her legs.

However, Mei Qian was extremely careful during this process, as she was afraid that Cang had noticed something.

She had to be cautious with every movement, rubbing the knot on her foot in time with the bumpy rhythm of the carriage.

Every time Xiaomei reminded the other person to open his eyes, Mei Qian would stop immediately.

Because the whole process required her to concentrate, control her breathing, and open her eyes from time to time, Mei Qian was in a state of high tension.

She herself didn't know how long she had been wasting time, but finally she started to feel exhausted.

Mei Qian quietly put away the blade and fell asleep in the same position.

I don't know how long it took, but the carriage finally stopped.

Mei Qian bumped her head against the wall of the carriage in a daze. Before she could scream in pain, she seemed to hear some disturbing noises outside the carriage.

"Ok?"

Mei Qian was about to sit up, but unexpectedly Cang got up first, pushed Mei Qian down, and jumped out of the carriage at the same time.

"I'm going, just go out if you want, why are you pushing me?!"

Mei Qian, who was lying on her back, wanted to scold Cang to death for jumping out, but the next second Cang turned around and came in, wrapped Mei Qian up in the blanket and carried her out!
Mei Qian:? ? ?
···
"No one is allowed to escape, stop them all!"

At this time, following the traces left by Mei Qian, Qi Fei guessed the direction of the people who took Mei Qian away, so he immediately took a shortcut and led his troops to rush over.

Sure enough, I saw a convoy traveling overnight towards the rising sun.

As soon as they encountered this suspicious convoy, before Qi Fei could say anything, the other party ran away like a mouse seeing a cat.

Doesn’t this prove anything?
"Don't shoot! To avoid accidental injuries!"

It was still dark at this moment, and Qi Fei couldn't see clearly whether someone had really tied Mei Qian up. What if someone accidentally shot her with an arrow?
When Qi Fei rode on horseback and ordered an outflanking attack, a group of people in the enemy team had already appeared and were ready to break out on horseback without any hesitation. One of the carriages was extremely suspicious.

"Quick! Catch up with that carriage!"

Qi Fei became even more anxious upon seeing this, and ordered everyone to chase back all the attackers, and especially to keep a close eye on the carriage.

Lingjiao, who had followed Qi Fei all the way here, was the first one to discover Mei Qian's trace when she was searching earlier.

She carefully kept both the bell and the hairpin in her arms. Qi Fei's shout also drew her attention to the carriage.

But just as Qi Fei ordered everyone to keep a close eye on the carriage, Lingjiao subconsciously looked towards the other figures on horseback.

"girl……"

Lingjiao suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a "thing" lying across the horse besides a person.

"Come with me!"

No one expected that at this time Lingjiao's momentum suddenly rose, and he actually directly ordered several soldiers on horseback beside him.

At the same time the order was issued, Lingjiao ran out first with a bow and arrow on his back.

[My dear girl, if I continue to march and fight, I will have to run around a lot. If you want to follow me, you should train your horse first.]
When Lingjiao wanted to go with Mei Qian before going to Ningcheng, Mei Qian rejected her in this way.

[Girl, the master that Lord Liang found is really amazing. He not only taught me how to ride a horse, but also how to shoot arrows~]
[Wow, Lingjiao is really amazing. During my absence from Ningcheng, he even practiced horse riding and archery. I will definitely come to see if what you said is true when I have the chance~]
"girl……"

Riding on the horse, Lingjiao clamped his legs tightly around the horse's belly, took a deep breath, drew the bow with both hands, aimed in the direction of the rider in front of him, and couldn't help chanting, "Girl, Lingjiao is here to save you!"

With a sound of breaking air, the man on horseback in front suddenly bent down and lay on the horse's back as if he had eyes behind him to avoid the arrow.

While dodging the arrow, he turned around and saw that the person riding a horse and chasing him in the front was actually a woman? !

Seeing that the other party was pointing the bow at him again, the man suddenly turned his head and pushed out a long object on the horse's back. Scared Lingjiao so much that he immediately loosened the bowstring and stopped his horse.

"Uu——!"

Without waiting for the horse to stop completely, Lingjiao jumped to the ground and rolled twice, rushing towards the fallen object. The moment he lifted the cloth strip, Lingjiao's face turned black.

A bag of straw suddenly caught her eye...

Now that my legs are almost ready, I can start running.
