Chapter 183 Kidnapped
Yuan Lai walked behind Qi Rong, listening to his increasingly heavy breathing, and asked worriedly, "Are you okay? Why don't we rest for a while?"
The road was very long and she had been walking for a long time without seeing the exit. She was also a little tired.
Qi Rong shook his head, "We can't stop. If we stop now, we'll never get out."
Well, Yuan Lai didn't dare to refute and had to follow Qi Rong forward.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, the road ahead became brighter and brighter. Yuan Lai couldn't help but feel excited. They had finally found their way out!
When they reached the end of the road, Qi Rong reached out, moved the stones blocking the road in front, and walked out holding Yuan Lai's hand.
This is a quiet street, a bit desolate, with some abandoned houses on the side of the street.
"What is this place? It looks a bit like..." Yuan Lai thought for a moment, "a house in a costume drama."
Qi Rong tapped Yuan Lai on the head, and An An appeared dissatisfied, "I was sleeping soundly, why did you call me out? Hey? Where is this?"
"When I was here, it was the capital of the Kingdom of Xingyang." Qi Rong led the two people forward.
"The Kingdom of Xingyang? There is no record of it in history?" Yuan Lai searched through the only remaining historical memories in his mind, from the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties to the new China.
Qi Rong patted Yuan Lai's head and said, "The Qingyang Kingdom only existed for five years. It's normal that it can't be found in history. Besides, the two are not in the same time and space."
"How magical." Yuan Lai looked behind him and found that the hole he had just come out of had disappeared, and what remained in its place was a wall.
Qi Rong took Yuan Lai and An An to push open the door of a mansion that had been closed for a long time.
Dust flew everywhere. Yuan Lai tore off a complete seal. "Seal, I've only seen this thing in TV dramas. I didn't expect this seal to be so exquisitely made."
Qi Rong lit the candles and said to the two, "This will be where we live from now on. There are many rooms here, just pick one you like. I have something to go out for tonight."
Yuan Lai took off his sweater. The temperature here was still very high. It seemed that it was summer.
Looking at Qi Rong's somewhat unstable body, he said to An An, "Why don't we follow him and see what he's doing?"
An An scratched his head, "I don't dare to do this. What if I get discovered?"
"But I'm worried he might faint on the way."
An An couldn't stand Yuan Lai's soft and hard nagging, so she glanced at her and said, "Okay, hold me tight."
The two men followed Qi Rong stealthily, climbed over two mountains, crossed five rivers, and finally stopped in a valley.
The grass and trees on the mountain were withered and yellow, without a trace of life. The two people didn't know why Qi Rong came here alone so late at night.
In the blink of an eye, Qi Rong jumped into an inconspicuous puddle and disappeared.
Yuan Lai and An An ran forward, doubting their own eyes, "How could such a big person disappear?"
Yuan Lai poked the water with his hand and found it was quite cold.
She found a big rock, sat down against it, and suggested, "Let's wait for him to come out."
An An had no objection. She sat next to Yuan Lai and began to analyze the current situation. "I've seen a lot of things. The mountains are connected, like a long dragon. The grass and trees are yellow, not withered. If my father is right, this is Cangkong Mountain."
"Cangkong Mountain?"
"Yes. It is said that Master Huaxuan was born from the Great Ming inside Cangkong Mountain. I see that Master Huaxuan is very weak. He must have returned to the Great Ming just now."
Yuan Lai suddenly remembered what Ren He said and asked An An, "Does anyone in that niche know someone named Ren He? I think he and Qi Rong seem very familiar with each other."
"Ren He should be a pseudonym." An An shook her head, indicating that she didn't know Ren He.
The mountain wind brought warmth, and the two people leaned against each other, gradually feeling sleepy.
The ten brothers followed Hong Bao out of the cave and were shocked by the sight before them. "What a high mountain, what big rocks!"
Hong Bao continued to move forward, smelling a faint scent.
Haohao behind him yelled, "Who are you? Where's the red envelope?"
The other nine people turned around and opened their eyes wide. There was no red envelope in front of them, only a young man.
The young man was still wearing the clothes Haohao bought for him, and his back was burned beyond recognition.
This cry scared Hongbao, and when he turned around he turned into a puppy again.
"Woof woof woof?" Why are you barking for no reason? The smell is getting weaker and weaker. If I don't look for it now, I will really lose it.
Haohao covered his mouth, looked at his brothers, and asked in a low voice, "Did you all see that? Am I dazzled? Did the red envelope just turn into a human?"
Everyone nodded in tacit understanding.
"In September, you said that Hongbao should be sterilized. Fortunately, I stopped you, otherwise this situation would be out of control." The little boy was scared.
We were already at the hospital, but for some reason I suddenly had the idea of waiting.
Everyone followed behind Hong Bao and no one dared to speak.
Turning the corner, they saw the red envelope parked in front of a puddle. A few steps away, Yuan Lai and a strange girl were sleeping soundly.
"Red envelope? Red envelope!" Haohao gently called back the red envelope.
In this situation, it is inappropriate to call out, and it is even more inappropriate not to call out. In the end, you can only bend down, pick up a small stone and throw it at the big stone.
There was a "bang" sound as the stones collided, and An An opened his eyes.
"Yuan Lai, wake up, there are so many people here."
Yuan Lai opened his eyes, somewhat unable to believe that the red envelope actually brought out exactly ten people.
They met without words, but smiled at each other in tacit understanding.
Only Hongbao looked vigilantly at the flickering flames at the foot of the mountain and barked.
"Here! Here! The reward for catching the monster is 100 gold! Everyone, charge!"
A large group of people surged up from the bottom of the mountain, each holding a special crossbow in their hands, staring at them menacingly.
Seeing that the situation was not right, An An immediately turned into a hairband and returned to Yuan Lai's head.
"The one on your left, the one on my right, and everyone else, come at us together. We won't let these monsters escape tonight!"
A large pile of smoking things was thrown up the mountain, and they suddenly felt dizzy and weak all over.
The villagers rushed forward and easily tied up the confused men with ropes.
They went down the mountain overnight, and the villagers excitedly pulled them back to the city in ox carts.
The villagers locked the group up in an abandoned yard. An An saw that everyone else was fainted by the smoke, so he transformed into a human and fed Yuan Lai a pill.
Yuan Lai opened his eyes and felt like his head was about to explode.
"Don't move. They used a medicine specifically for dealing with monsters. You can't move until the effect of the medicine wears off."
Yuan Lai was puzzled. "I'm dealing with monsters, but I'm a human! My brothers are also human? We all fainted, why are you fine?"
"Ah?" Yes, why is she okay.
An An stood there in a daze, confused by herself.
It was Yuan Lai who twisted on the ground for a long time and reminded An An to wake up the others.
Yuan Lai looked around but didn't see the red envelope. Yuan Lai suddenly became nervous. Could the red envelope be dangerous?
