Chapter 067: Yuan Ying Gets Lost
In the afternoon that day, while walking in a valley, Yuan Ying got lost.
The group was all women. Yuan Ying relied on her and Pang Zihui's skills, so she did not bring any guards, but only four female servants.
I had brought enough dry food and water, but it was a very scary thing for six women to get lost in the mountains.
Yuan Ying looked back and forth, only to see trees and shrubs everywhere, with almost no distant scenery visible. When she drove her horse for a while, she still saw trees and shrubs everywhere. Where could she see the way out?
Yuan Ying is a caring person and rarely panics about anything, but she was a little panicked today.[
Just like this, when the six women stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes, Yuan Ying suddenly saw a palm-sized piece of bark scraped off a tree in the distance. The bark was scraped away, revealing the bright white xylem.
.
Yuan Ying was pleasantly surprised and said: "Someone must have been here."
So she stood under the marked tree and looked around. When she saw another marked tree not far away, Yuan Ying walked forward along the marked tree for three to five miles.
On the way, I saw an open area in the mountains. The ground was not large, and there was a hut built on it.
It was already getting late, and there was smoke rising from the hut.
Yuan Ying was overjoyed when she saw it. She hurriedly led her horse and everyone to the hut, stopped and went inside to ask for directions.
A woman in her twenties came out of the room. Although her clothes were patched, she had a pretty face and bright eyes.
Yuan Ying was very surprised when she saw it. She didn't expect that there would be a single woman living in this deep mountain. As soon as she saw it, she made up her mind and knew that the reason why this woman lived here must have extraordinary experiences, so
Just ask for directions carefully.
The woman asked Yuan Ying warily where they were from. Yuan Ying knew that she and her party were wearing casual clothes and carrying bows, arrows, swords and guns. It was not good to tell the truth, so she lied and said that she was the daughter of a wealthy family in Fancheng and her surname was Hao. She heard that Cao Bing was coming soon.
When he arrived at Fancheng, he followed his father's orders and went to Zaoyang to join his relatives and avoid Cao's soldiers.
Not wanting to get lost, he said, "The six of us have been wandering around in the mountains for a day and can't get out. Fortunately, we met this eldest sister. Please show us the way out. We will be very grateful."
After hearing this, the woman looked at Yuan Ying and his party, then looked up at the sky, and said: "I know the road, and I can send you out. But it's dark, and the group of people, not only women, but also men
I can’t get out of this mountain. If I wander around in this mountain for a night, I will be lost in this mountain forever by dawn. That is very dangerous.”
After the woman finished speaking, she looked at Yuan Ying and the others in embarrassment. Seeing that they were all women, she comforted them: "I don't dare to send you out when it's dark. We might get lost in the mountains and we'd be in trouble."
The woman continued to speak, and the cry of a child sounded from the bed.
The woman hurriedly got up and went over to hug the child and comfort her.
When Yuan Ying saw the child, she saw that the child had a tiger-like head and a tough head, and was very cute.
When Yuan Ying took a closer look, she suddenly felt that this child seemed familiar, and a warm current surged in her heart. She felt that this child and she had an ongoing connection, but she just didn't understand it yet.
The child was just over two years old. He was crying and when he saw Yuan Ying, he slowly stopped crying and reached out for Yuan Ying to hold him.
When Yuan Ying saw it, she hurriedly took it and hugged it in her arms, but for some reason, she felt an uncontrollable feeling of pity that caused tears to flow down her face.
Yuan Ying really couldn't suppress her feelings, so she hugged her child tightly and sobbed loudly.
The woman was both happy and sad when she saw her. She wiped her tears and comforted Yuan Ying. It took a while before Yuan Ying stopped crying.[
Just like that, it got dark and the woman couldn't send Yuan Ying and the others out of the mountain, so Yuan Ying and the others had no choice but to stay at the woman's house.
The woman lit up the pineapple and started to cook dinner for Yuan Ying and her entourage.
The room was too small to sleep six women, so they crowded together and chatted after dinner.
Yuan Ying was curious about a woman living in a deep mountain forest, so she asked about her life experience.
This woman didn't say anything at first, but gradually she revealed it for some unknown reason, saying that her surname was Lin, and her name was Lin Zhen'er.
In his early years, he lived in the mountains north of Xinye City. His mother died early, and he and his father hunted and gathered herbs to depend on each other. "Then, three years ago, a senior official who claimed to be Jingzhou Zhizhong came into my house with guards and took a look at me.
, proposed to my father.
My father had been a soldier in Liu Biao's army in his early years and knew some things about Jingzhou Yamen. Seeing that this officer was a talented person with a dignified appearance, and knowing his details, he was happy from the bottom of his heart, but he was also afraid that people would not want me as a wife.
.
Hey, as for me, although I have never been married, I know one thing, that is, you must marry someone who is honest and reliable. Only in this way can you ensure a safe life.
I saw that this officer was tall and tall, with a dignified appearance, riding a tall white horse, and accompanied by three guards. He looked majestic. To be honest, I liked him from the bottom of my heart.
Seeing that my father kept praising this officer and saying good things about him, I felt satisfied from the bottom of my heart.
However, the only worry I have is that I am afraid that this officer is out to find a woman, and if he likes me for a while, he will seduce him with sweet words.
I have seen many such things, so I insisted on not agreeing and asked to wait until the world became stable and the matchmaker got married.
As soon as the officer saw that he couldn't get the hook, he was so anxious that he couldn't stand it. He worked hard here every day and coaxed him with sweet words.
My father told me again that in history there was a high-ranking official named Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty. On his way to escape after a defeat, he stayed at Mrs. Zhao’s house at night. Mrs. Zhao’s father saw that Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty was a person and would definitely be promising in the future.
He dedicated Mrs. Zhao to Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty. Later, she gave birth to King Zhao Ruyi.
Later, when Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty became emperor, he took Mrs. Zhao to live in the capital and lived in the palace.
My father told the story here, and the next day, I agreed to the officer’s insistence and slept with him.
After that, he was very nice to me and we kept seeing each other for more than three months. Later, he never came to see me again during the war.
After waiting for a while, the water north of the Han River stabilized, and he took me and my father to live in Xinye City.
After staying for a few days, he said goodbye to my father and me, saying that he was going to recover Soochow. He just left and has never been heard from again."
Lin Zhen'er took a few breaths after saying this, and then said: "I gradually became disappointed with him and hated him.
