You are asked to marry in place of the tyrant, and you allow the tyrant to send you to marry?

She didn't dare walk to the edge of the cliff, but she also didn't dare get too close to it, for fear that she would accidentally fall into a pit.

When she went out to treat patients during the day, she also took a rough look at Xifeng Mountain and got a rough idea of ​​the terrain here.

Apart from anything else, Xifeng Mountain is strategically located and easy to defend but difficult to attack.

It seems that there are indeed several ways to go down the mountain, but each way is full of danger and not as easy as imagined.

"Oh my god! There's actually a fire ahead? The government is determined to suppress the bandits!"

"Uh... there's fire on that road too? Isn't that a trap I'm walking into? Is the person ahead an enemy or a friend?"

Seeing some scattered flames suddenly appear about a hundred meters ahead, Du Qingwan couldn't help but become nervous and her heart skipped a beat.

He raised his eyes and glanced around, and found that there were flames moving everywhere, which made him even more panicked.

Obviously, it is impossible to return the same way now.

Because, behind her, she could vaguely see some flames moving towards her!

"Damn it! There are wolves in front and tigers behind. What should I do now?"

Du Qingwan cursed inwardly and quickly hid under a big rock, her heart pounding.

She closed her eyes and silently repeated three times in her heart:

"Can't see me, can't see me, can't see me!"

"Who? Don't move!"

Suddenly, there is a high probability that Murphy's Law will occur.

The more she worried about being discovered, the more she prayed. The next second, she was discovered.

A sharp sword was quickly placed against her neck, and the cold blade brought a suffocating chill.

Du Qingwan stared with bated breath, closing her eyes tightly and not daring to say a word.

The blank brain continued to recall and confirmed that it was a female voice.

"Big...Big sister, let's talk it out nicely, nicely..."

Du Qingwan forced a smile and reached out her hand to tentatively push away the sword.

But Ke Minmin didn't give her this chance at all. She put the sword against her throat again and asked coldly:

"Stop talking nonsense! Are you in cahoots with those bandits? Tell me!

If you don’t tell the truth, I’ll stab you to death with my sword!”

When Du Qingwan heard the other party's question, she immediately realized that the other party was a friendly force, or even a reinforcement, and she couldn't help but feel ecstatic.

"No, no, no! Big... Big sister, oh, ugh! Lady!

I am not related to the bandits. They kidnapped me two days ago. I refused to obey them and they wanted to kill me.

I just found out that the government was attacking the mountain, so I wanted to escape down the mountain."

Du Qingwan hesitated and told the truth with great fear and trepidation.

Because the light was too dim, the two people could not see each other's faces even when they were facing each other.

But because of her trust in Du Qingwan, Ke Minmin somehow chose to believe her.

"In that case, follow me down the mountain!

We are here to suppress the bandits tonight, follow us and you will be safe!"

"Brother, you escort this girl down the mountain. I will go up the mountain and kill Zhang Laoer and Xu Qingsheng myself!"

Ke Minmin quickly retracted the sword, immediately called her younger brother Ke Zhenyu, and handed Du Qingwan to him.

But she insisted on going up the mountain to kill the bandit leader.

Hearing this, Du Qingwan was stunned and stopped subconsciously.

"Your voice... why does it sound so familiar? Are you... Ke Minmin?"

Because she was too nervous just now, Du Qingwan didn't pay any attention to Ke Minmin's voice and expression.

Now that she felt at ease, she actually recognized Ke Minmin's voice.

I couldn't help but feel excited.

"Girl, do you...know me?"

Hearing Du Qingwan calling out her name, Ke Minmin was stunned for a moment and looked at her in confusion.

Ke Zhenyu was also very shocked at this time. He was about to light a torch to confirm what Du Qingwan looked like, but was immediately stopped by Ke Minmin.

"Brother, don't light the torch, or the enemy will discover you.

Girl, how do you know my name?

Ke Minmin's gaze fell on Du Qingwan, her eyes still full of confusion.

Du Qingwan moved closer, looked at Ke Minmin carefully, and said with a smile:

“I saved you and heard your cries for help.

That day you were taken away by the Second Boss, and I was locked in the First Boss's room, so I heard your voice."

At this point, Du Qingwan smiled embarrassedly.

Thinking of what happened next, she suddenly didn't dare to continue and stopped talking.

After all, burying someone alive is really not a good thing.

Besides, this idea was hers on her own.

Those people almost buried her alive.

If there hadn't been a board covering her mouth and nose, she would have been buried in the mud and suffocated to death.

"and after?"

Realizing that Du Qingwan was most likely the girl named Du who helped her escape from the tiger's mouth, Ke Minmin couldn't wait to ask.

Du Qingwan wanted to show that she was a friend, and her purpose was to prevent Ke Minmin and others from hurting her, so she continued:

“Then you stabbed yourself and passed out, and they thought you were going to die, and I went over to save you.

I treated your wounds and gave you acupuncture to make you appear dead, so they buried you..."

At the end, Du Qingwan was extremely nervous, her palms were covered in cold sweat, and her heart was pounding wildly.

She didn't know whether she was aiding and abetting the evil.

Unexpectedly, before Du Qingwan finished speaking, Ke Minmin was suddenly overjoyed, hugged her shoulders, and said excitedly:

"So, you are Miss Du? Not only did you save me, you also gave me a medicine bottle and a lot of silver bills.

Oh, by the way, this is the jade pendant you left for me, right?"

As Ke Minmin spoke, she placed the jade pendant in Du Qingwan's hand, her face full of joy.

Du Qingwan picked up the jade pendant, took a look at it, and nodded repeatedly:

"Yes, yes. My name is Du Qingwan, the daughter of General Du Ludu of Yecheng. May I ask where you are from?"

After confirming that Ke Minmin was the person she rescued, Du Qingwan's heart finally settled down and she felt a lot more relieved.

She never dreamed that Ke Minmin actually survived and that she would meet her here.

"Haha! Thank you for your help, young lady! My name is Ke Minmin, and I am the chieftain of the chieftain's mansion in southern Yunnan.

Tonight, we are ordered to go up the mountain to suppress the bandits and to massacre Xifeng Mountain with blood, so as to eliminate the troubles for the imperial court forever!"

Ke Minmin quickly introduced herself, looking extremely excited.

Seeing this, Ke Zhenyu, who was standing by, was in a daze the whole time and could hardly believe his eyes.

"Sister, Miss Du, you have met before?

Sister, is Miss Du still your savior?

Doesn't this fate come a little suddenly? "

Ke Zhenyu didn't know what to say. After organizing for a long time, he could only piece together a few words, and he was immediately embarrassed.

Ke Minmin has a cheerful personality. She immediately patted her brother's arm and said with a smile:

"Yes! This is fate. You quickly escort Miss Du down the mountain. I will go up the mountain myself and kill the bandit leader!"

"Yes, sister! Oh, no, Lord Chief!"

Ke Zhenyu didn't dare to disobey and immediately agreed with a smile.

After saying that, Ke Zhenyu carefully escorted Du Qingwan down the mountain, and he was so happy.

After all, he had never seen a girl as beautiful as Du Qingwan in his life!

Ripples of emotion had already begun to arise involuntarily in my heart.

Seeing her brother and Du Qingwan coming down the mountain, Ke Minmin quickly gave orders and all the soldiers nearby attacked the mountain together.

In just a moment, countless torches were lit on the originally pitch-black mountaintop.

Amidst the flashing of swords and the shadow of sabers, there were sounds of fighting and screams that echoed throughout the sky.
