Chapter 80 The separation (2)
“Woman!” The man clearly smiled. He reached over with his other hand unceremoniously.
Chen Hui suddenly screamed. That high-pitched voice stabbed the man and make his movement stop.
Seeing that the purpose was temporarily achieved, Chen Hui stopped screaming and said, “My value as a prisoner is much higher than that purely of a woman! If you take me to Li…”
“Borwu!” A sultry female voice interrupted Chen Hui’s words suddenly.
When the man holding Chen Hui heard this voice, he put Chen Hui down. He turned his head and the corners of his mouth raised slightly into a flattering smile. He also jabbered something.
Chen Hui looked at the woman who strode over in surprise.
Chen Hui didn’t expect to see a woman on the battlefield. When this woman strode over, she instantly remembered the legendary Amazonian warriors.
This woman was tall, about one meter eighty. She was wearing a thin armor covering her torso. Her arms and calves were exposed. One could clearly see her beautiful and powerful muscles as well as several scars of various depths. Her skin was bronze-colored and as she approached, her heroic features were clearly reflected in Chen Hui’s eyes. She was definitely stronger than the average woman, but she didn’t have as many muscles as the man holding Chen Hui. In Chen Hui’s eyes, this was a beautiful woman full of power.
Chen Hui didn’t expect that she would see such a woman in this era. She couldn’t help from getting excited, but when she thought about her situation, her spirits fell again.
“Woman?” The woman didn’t look at her kin when she walked over. Instead, she looked at Chen Hui and asked her. Her voice wasn’t as soft as most women Chen Hui had heard before. Instead, there was a sonorous and powerful sense of power. And her Great Liang’s pronunciation was of much higher standard than this man.
Chen Hui only hesitated for a moment. Then she sat on the ground and cried bitterly.
The woman looked at her kin. The man pouted and shrugged.
The woman thought for a moment and said a few words in Xi language to the man. The man nodded, turned and left. The woman bent down and patted Chen Hui on the shoulder.
Chen Hui raised her head, looked at the woman with red eyes and was about to tell the woman her story. Who knew that the woman grabbed her waist directly and threw her on her shoulders?
Chen Hui’s head was facing the ground and she was stunned for a while.
She, unexpectedly, was carried away by a woman?!
Chen Hui thought for a moment. She didn’t dare to struggle. What if she provoked her and she threw her to that man? Anyway, she was already ready to be a captive. It was better to be a captive of a woman than to be a captive of a man, right?
Speaking of which, such a manly woman wouldn’t be a lesbian, right? Then, if she fell into the other party’s hands, it doesn’t seem that she was much better than falling into a man’s hands! But thinking optimistically, women would probably be gentler when doing the same thing, right?
Chen Hui thought about it uncontrollably for a while before she calmed down and began to look around. She realized that there were three to four people captured like her, but they didn’t have the same treatment as her. They were tied up like zongzi and dragged forward by a big man.
This group of people walked on mountain roads. Perhaps, it was to avoid the patrollers that Li Youde once mentioned. The Xi people walked very carefully. Chen Hui counted with difficulty. There were about twenty of them. They shouldn’t have been the opponent of the people led by Li Youde, but they took advantage of the geographical position. They caught Li Youde’s team off guard first and when their team came to the reaction, they were already messed up and there was no way to organize effective resistance. Naturally, they could only be beaten. Chen Hui didn’t see Li Youde among the people who had been tied up and among the corpses that she saw earlier, there was no Li Youde, Ah Da and Ah Er. She thought that they probably had successfully escaped…She hopes that Li Youde could come up with a good plan to save her!
On the other side.
Li Youde scanned around. There were only thirty people who had managed to escape and get together. They included the servants and Brocade Armed Guards that he brought as well as the soldiers who were still in shock.
However, Lady Chen whom he thought he would see, was not among them.
Seeing Li Youde look around, the fretfulness on Ah Er’s face became more obvious and the anxiousness in his heart also grew. Lady Chen had treated them well. He had looked around for a while. She was not here and he didn’t know how she was now…
“Lord, she was not found!” Ah Da who went out to look, hurriedly returned to fulfill his order.
“Useless thing! How come you can’t find a big living person?” Li Youde was angry and anxious.
Ah Da hesitated for a while but still mustered the courage to say, “Presumably…presumably she couldn’t escape.”
“Nonsense!” Li Youde had resisted the kick he wanted to throw just now. Now, he was unable to hold it back and kicked.
Ah Da didn’t dare to dodge. After suffering this kick, he simply continued, “Lord, it was such a chaos just now. Perhaps, the moment Lady Chen jumped out of the carriage, she has been…been…”
Ah Da looked at Li Youde’s sinister face, gritted his teeth and couldn’t continue.
The uneasiness that had existed since before finally solidified. Li Youde stood there dazedly and looked in the direction that the group had escaped from.
He suddenly beckoned. Someone from the Brocade Armed Guard immediately came over.
“Go see whether those people are still there,” Li Youde commanded coldly.
That person took the command and rode back on a horse. After about the time to burn an incense stick, he returned, got off from the horse and said, “They are no longer there and no one is left there.”
Li Youde’s heart sank and immediately said, “Go back and have a look!”
A ground full of corpses and blood.
Li Youde stood at the outer end and looked at his carriage in a distance. Suddenly a thought that seemed to have been hidden for a long time emerged.
He had long realized that he was helpless against Lady Chen now and he didn’t know what to do with her. He couldn’t bear to beat her and couldn’t bear to let her suffer. He could only suffer himself. However now, wouldn’t his trouble be gone if she has died? No one would ride roughshod over his head again; he no longer has to think about whether she was sincere and whether she would leave him…He would not have a big trouble. He should be laughing now.
Li Youde walked forward step by step. Ah Da and Ah Er also helped to look for Chen Hui. They searched twice, but there was no trace of her. If alive, a person was not seen. If dead, the corpse was not found.
“Lady Chen is clever. She has probably run away a long time ago,” Ah Er tried to be optimistic.
Ah Da said, “Could it be that…she was captured by the Xi barbarians?”
“Don’t talk nonsense!” Ah Er quickly said, “Why would they capture someone for no reason? Lady Chen must’ve run away a long time ago.”
Li Youde didn’t speak. His gaze looked around aimlessly and suddenly fell to a certain place. His eyes narrowed and he strode over. He picked up the broken hairpin on the ground. This was what Lady Chen used to fix her hair. He recognized it.
And there seemed to be traces of a spear stuck in the soul where the hairpin was broken.
She must’ve been captured by the Xi barbarians!
The previous thought seemed to come up again. It was nothing to have someone to pair food with, but if this someone affects him too much; he couldn’t help but hesitate. What if someone uses her against him in the future? It was for his own benefit to let go of this trouble sooner. If she was regarded as dead at this moment, he might be sad for some time. After all, he might never run into someone who he liked so much in the future again. But at the same time, he would have no weakness that could be exploited.
“Lord, this Lady Chen likes lord the most…”
“This Lady Chen is lord’s…”
“Lord, please…”
“Does lord like this Lady Chen?”
…
Li Youde suddenly regained his senses. But those words from Chen Hui, her demeanor and behavior still stayed in his mind.
All fake!
He threw the broken hairpin in his hand angrily on the ground, turned and left.
Ah Da and Ah Er didn’t know what was going on. They just followed hurriedly. However, Li Youde unexpectedly stopped again. The two almost bumped into him. The two quickly dodged to a side and were able to avoid Li Youde, who turned around and walked back.
Li Youde went back to the two pieces of the broken hairpin. He looked down for a long time and his complexion changed and changed. After a long time, he sighed, squatted, picked them up and held them firmly in his palm.
Forget it, he admits defeat.
