Traveling through the ancient times

Chapter 175: Another New Year's Eve Painting

Chushunihua winked at the farmer and lowered his eyes to look at his bound hands and feet.

The farmer realized that she wanted him to help her untie the rope, and he shook his head in fear.

"Girl, I'm really sorry that I can't help you untie it. If we let you go, my partner and I will die."

Nian Chuhua understood what the peasant woman meant. It must be Yongkang who threatened them. Nian Chuhua curled the corners of his mouth and shook his head, then looked at his rumbling stomach.

"You want to eat?"

Nod vigorously at the beginning of the year!

The peasant woman smiled. Seeing Nianchuhua's reaction, she knew that she was a well-educated and well-mannered girl, so she said to Nianchuhua,

"Wait a minute. There is some porridge left over from lunch today in the kitchen. I'll bring you a bowl."

After the farmer said this, he turned around, closed the door and went out.

After a while, she came in hurriedly with a bowl of porridge and fed Nianchuhua one spoonful at a time with a spoon.

The farmer wiped the corner of Nianchuhua's mouth and reminded her, "Girl, that man should be back soon. Don't let him know that you've woken up."

Yongkang would come to the woodshed to take a look at Nianchuhua every day after he came back, and then he would leave her alone after making sure she was still there.

As long as Chushulhua pretends to be asleep, Yongkang shouldn't make things difficult for her.

Yongkang estimated the days and lay in ambush near the official road to see when Lu Ming would come back. In the past few days, he would come back every evening to have dinner and take a look at the New Year's Eve painting.

Nianchuhua gave the peasant woman a grateful smile and nodded.

After eating something, I wasn’t so hungry anymore and I also regained some strength.

The peasant woman carried Nianchuhua back to where she had been lying before, and tidied her clothes and hair.

Then he picked up the farm tools scattered on the ground. After doing all this, he turned around and left with the empty bowl.

Sure enough, Yongkang came back after a while. When Chushulhua heard the farmers outside greeting Yongkang, he closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.

Yongkang opened the door of the woodshed and saw Nian Chuhua still lying motionless on the ground. He frowned. How come she hasn't woken up after so many days? Could she be dead?

Chushulhua's heart suddenly tightened, and she suppressed the fear in her heart and calmed her turbulent emotions, as if she had really fallen asleep.

Yongkang walked in and heard the footsteps getting closer and closer. Nian Chuhua's heart skipped a beat. Did he find out that she was awake?

Yongkang walked over to Nianchuhua and squatted down. He probed Nianchuhua's nose with his fingers and found that there was breath in his body.

Nian Chuhua's breathing suddenly stagnated, and her heart sank. She forced herself to remain calm and tried her best to control her breathing so that she looked normal.

There was an unconcealable hostility in Yongkang's eyes, and then he let out a sinister laugh.

Nianchuhua felt a little scared. Yongkang's voice made every pore in her body scream and tremble. She felt like she was in an ice cave, so cold that she wanted to shiver.

Nianchuhua had a bad feeling in her heart, but she couldn't show her true colors at this moment.

Yongkang looked at the harmless face painted at the beginning of the year. What a beautiful person!

Pity!

Lu Mingqian and Nian Chuhua, one harmed his entire family, the other ruined his good deeds, leaving him alone and helpless.

Once the matter was resolved, he would send this woman and Lu Mingqian to hell together, and let them become a pair of ghost mandarin ducks.

A bloodthirsty light flashed in Yongkang's eyes, and then he stood up and left the woodshed.

The terrifying pressure that had enveloped him dissipated instantly, and Nian Chuhua breathed a sigh of relief. His back was already covered in cold sweat, and his entire body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Yongkang had dinner and went out again. While Yongkang was out, the farmer took a steamed bun and a bowl of porridge into Chushul.

Chuanxihua gradually regained her strength. She still couldn't speak, so she nodded and bowed to the farmer to express her gratitude.

"Girl, have you never been able to talk?"

Nian Chuhua quickly shook his head, opened his mouth and looked outside.

The farmers realized that it was Yongkang who poisoned her and made her speechless. They didn't know what grudge had broken out against such a good girl, but she was abducted here and drugged to make her speechless.

Although the farmers were kind-hearted and asked for the painting at the beginning of the year, they also valued her life and did not dare to let her go. They could only send her some food every day to save her life.

Even if Chuchuhua wanted to ask the farmers to help her deliver the letters, she couldn't do it. She couldn't speak, and most of these ordinary farmers were illiterate, so she couldn't explain clearly to them.

At the beginning of the year, the weakness in Hua's body slowly dissipated, and now she has regained her strength.

That day, the farmers took advantage of Yongkang's absence to bring food to Nianchuhua. After eating, Nianchuhua bowed deeply to them.

She couldn't just sit here and wait to die, so she could only feel sorry for the peasant couple. She hoped that Yongkang still had some humanity and would not kill them all.

Once she escapes, she will bring people back to rescue them as soon as possible.

After the farmers went out, Chushunihua rolled to the farm tools before it got dark and began to carefully grind the rope that tied him on the hoe.

About a quarter of an hour later, the ropes on her hands loosened, and she quickly untied the ropes on her legs and moved her wrists and ankles.

He can only leave secretly after dark. I have observed in the past two days that Yongkang only comes back twice a day, morning and evening. He is not in the house at other times. I don't know what bad things he did when he went out.

Yongkang also wanted to do something bad, but Lu Mingqian hadn't come back for so long, and his patience was almost exhausted.

These two days he couldn't help but wonder, didn't the people from the Third Prince's Mansion send a letter to Lu Mingqian?

Or was it really as Nian Chuhua said, that she was not that important to Lu Mingqian? So knowing that Nian Chuhua was arrested was used to threaten him, so he simply didn't come back?

Now, the people outside Qunan City are like playing a big game of hide-and-seek. People in the city are looking for Chu Nianhua, Yongkang and others, Yongkang is looking for Lu Mingqian, and the Xiliang King's personal guards are looking for Yongkang.

Yes! The Xiliang King's personal guards are also looking for Yongkang!

That day, the head of the guards escaped after being injured and went into hiding...

The five guards who came out of the city saw the retreat fireworks and thought that the matter was accomplished. After leaving the city, they went directly to the meeting place agreed upon before.

Logically speaking, the chief of the royal guards and his men were outside the city and should have arrived earlier than the five of them, but the five of them waited there for two quarters of an hour and did not see the chief of the royal guards taking Qi Muhe to meet up.

The five men thought something might have happened, so they secretly returned to Shili Pavilion, and sure enough, they saw the other four bodyguards who had been killed in the valley.

"The boss isn't here. I don't know if he was caught or escaped. Let's look for him everywhere."

Their guards have special contact methods and marks. If the head of the guards escapes, he will leave marks for them to make it easier to find them.

The others flew into the woods, and during the journey they met Hua Ling Tianxing and others who were looking for Nian Chu Hua from a distance, but they avoided them.

They searched for possible places to leave marks, and finally found the mark of their contact on a tree trunk. After searching all the way, they finally found the hiding place of the head of the personal guard.
