New Return of the Pearl: The Group's Pet Swallow Flies
Chapter 108: They won’t kidnap us, will they?
Duanmu Qing cooperated by praising his son, making him laugh so hard that he couldn't stop. He even sat outside the carriage and drove with his father.
Only Xiaoyanzi and Huo Chengyue were left in the carriage.
Huo Chengyue felt inexplicably embarrassed. She wanted to ask something but didn't know how to start. What could she ask such a young child?
It is said that children cannot lie, but they can talk nonsense. She could not tell whether her words were true or false.
I simply closed my eyes, calmed down and looked at the delicious and fun things in the space. I wanted to take them out and share them with Xiaoyanzi, but I was afraid that the child would ask too many questions. After thinking about it, I decided not to give it to her.
Xiaoyanzi watched Huo Chengyue closing his eyes to rest, and she also calmed down, leaning against the window, watching the carriage driving on the somewhat deserted road.
But why is this road getting more and more remote? It seems like we are heading to some desolate mountain or wilderness.
She frowned. Those bad uncles outside wouldn't kidnap them and sell them in the wilderness, right?
However, seeing how generous he is, he shouldn't be the kind of person who would traffic in people.
But after thinking about it, she was still a little worried, so she pushed Huo Chengyue's leg and said softly, "Aunt, look, the place we are going to seems to be very far away. I don't know where this is. It's so remote."
Huo Chengyue opened her eyes, pulled aside the curtain and looked outside. Seeing that it was indeed deserted, as if she was in the wilderness, she frowned slightly and whispered to her, "Do you think this man will take us somewhere to sell us?"
Xiaoyanzi came close to her and whispered, "I'm a little scared too. I feel like he's not a good person."
"So you trust him so much? And you're willing to go to Qingyun Pavilion with him?"
Huo Chengyue raised her eyebrows and asked softly.
Xiaoyanzi held her chin in her hand and sighed helplessly, "Oh, it's a pity that people have to bow their heads under the eaves. I can't run away even if I want to."
Huo Chengyue touched her head lovingly and said gently, "Don't worry, I'm here, nothing will happen to you."
Xiaoyanzi raised her head and said in disbelief, "Your son is still in his hands. Can you deal with him?"
Huo Chengyue's face froze. She glanced inside the carriage and saw that her son was not there. Outside the carriage, she could hear her son shouting. She rubbed her brows helplessly and said, "I was 100% sure just now, but now I am only 30% sure."
Before Xiaoyanzi could say anything, she heard Duanmu Qing, who was driving the carriage, say helplessly, "Don't worry, you two. I'm not the kind of person who would kidnap children.
I can hear you all talking, don't worry, our Qingyun Pavilion is just built in the wilderness to make it look quieter, we don't intend to do anything to you."
Huo Chengyue and Xiao Yanzi looked at each other and smiled secretly. How could they not know that this man could hear their conversation clearly? They were just asking him in a disguised way.
The carriage continued to move shakily towards a mountain not far away.
Not long after, the carriage stopped at the foot of the mountain. Duanmu Qing jumped off the carriage, smiled and carried Huo Yuqi down, then lifted the curtain and took in Huo Chengyue who was in the carriage. After helping her get off the carriage, he carried Xiaoyanzi down.
The four of them stopped at the foot of this barren mountain, watching the trees on the mountain begin to turn yellow. Xiaoyanzi couldn't help but ask, "Don't tell me that your Qingyun Pavilion is inside this mountain."
Duanmu Qing raised his head in triumph and said in a very happy voice, "Yes, I am very smart and clever. No one can find us in this desolate mountain."
Xiaoyanzi and Huo Chengyue looked at each other and were speechless for a while.
Huo Chengyue asked, "How far is it? How long will it take to walk?"
Duanmu Qing scratched his head and said, "It will probably take two hours to walk."
Huo Chengyue's face turned a little dark. What's the difference between this and modern mountain climbing?
Two hours is four hours.
She was really convinced.
She turned around, hugged Huo Yuqi and prepared to go back in the carriage, "Qiqi, mother doesn't want to climb the mountain, let's go back first, I'll take you to play with your father next time."
Huo Yuqi was reluctant to look at the mountain, but he still put his arms around his mother's neck and said nothing.
Duanmu Qing was dumbfounded, and quickly reached out to keep her, smiling and saying, "Hey, don't worry, mother, you won't have to climb for long, just follow me first, I promise you it will be worth the trip."
The three words "mother of a child" made her eyebrows jump. She said her name in a speechless voice, "My name is Huo Chengyue, Huo as in Huo Yuanjia, Cheng as in the continuity, and Yue as in Wang."
The self-introduction made Duanmu Qing and Xiaoyanzi confused, but he didn't want to delve into the name, he just remembered that the woman's name was Huo Chengyue.
"Okay, okay, Huo Chengyue, come with me first. We have a mechanism here. I'm holding two children. Follow me and don't step on the mechanism."
After Duanmu Qing finished speaking, he held Xiaoyanzi in his left hand and Huo Yuqi in his right hand, and strode forward. Huo Chengyue followed behind him doubtfully.
There is a mechanism buried in such a large and barren mountain? Who would believe it...
She subconsciously did not follow Duanmu Qing's footsteps. As a result, not long after, a small stone flew out from the ground and hit her. Fortunately, she was quick-witted and dodged it by turning her head. She looked at the mechanism on the ground with some lingering fear.
Suddenly, a small hole appeared on the dry ground. There was a small mechanism buried inside. As long as you step on it, it will shoot out unexpectedly.
"Are you okay?"
When Duanmu Qing heard the noise, he quickly turned around and asked worriedly.
Huo Chengyue pretended to be a pig and ate the tiger, and said with a lingering fear, "It's okay, I was scared to death, luckily I reacted quickly, otherwise, I would be dead."
Duanmu Qing quickly calmed her down, "Because there are few people around here, there are always some wild beasts in the barren mountains. In order to prevent them from running around and disturbing our Qingyun Pavilion, we have set up some traps nearby. Be careful, it's okay."
Huo Chengyue nodded to show that she understood. She took a few steps and looked back at the carriage, only to find that the carriage that had been parked at the foot of the mountain had disappeared?
"Where's the carriage?"
Huo Chengyue asked, and Xiaoyanzi looked over curiously and found that the carriage was gone. However, in such a short while, they had not walked a few steps and had not heard anyone driving the carriage.
Duanmu Qing said without turning his head, "It's okay, someone is feeding the horses."
Huo Chengyue frowned. Are all the people here good at Qinggong? Even the carriage can be taken away quietly?
In reality, a group of people came quietly, carried the carriage and horses, and then left quietly.
How can it not be quiet when more than a dozen people are carrying a carriage and horses?
It's just that these people's Qinggong skills are really good. They had heard the Pavilion Master bragging a long time ago that he had found his son and asked everyone not to scare his son and future wife, so they asked everyone else to be quiet.
As a result, a group of people came quietly and left quietly.
Oh. You asked why the horse didn't neigh? Stupid, the horse was fed with knockout drugs and fell asleep.
Duanmu Qing led the three people and walked around for a while, and came to a flat ground on the mountain. Then he pointed to the cable car not far away and said to them with a smile.
"Look, we need to go up the mountain via this ropeway. You don't have to climb."
Huo Chengyue, Xiaoyanzi and Huo Yuqi were looking at the rope that was dropped from the top of the mountain to the bottom. There was a large basket hanging on it, which looked very flimsy, but there were two people standing on it, staggering towards them.
As soon as they arrived in front of the group, the two men in dark blue robes respectfully bowed to Duanmu Qing and said, "Greetings, Pavilion Master."
Then he looked at the beautiful woman standing next to the Pavilion Master and said with a smile, "Greetings to the Pavilion Master's wife." He then spoke to the two little kids, "Greetings to the young master and young lady."
Huo Chengyue, who was called the Pavilion Master's wife, had a question mark on her face, "???"
