Snow capped, winter wind blowing head-on, such as cold knife, a knife to the face blowing. White Yin Ling beat a shiver, she put down the window lattice curtain, mercilessly rubbed two hands.
The carriage stopped at this time. The groom opened the door and said politely, "miss three, this is Lingshan."
Bai Yinling's body was shivering with the cold wind, and she shrugged her head and jumped out of the carriage. She looked around quietly, the mountains were surrounded by winter snow, such as silver, white to the eye.
"Miss, there is a mountain stronghold not far away from here. You should be careful not to be found by the people in the mountain stronghold. Although you are praying for the general's house, if you can escape from Lingshan, you'd better leave quickly.
Here is the silver that the general gave to the villain and the young lady. Find a secluded place to hide for three years, and then the general will come to meet you. "
As the groom tidied up a thatched cottage, he handed Bai Yinling a bulging bag of money. She reached for it and said thanks. When the house was ready, the groom gave a few words and left quickly.
Holding her purse, she watched the groom disappear in the snow outside the courtyard, her eyes covered with sadness.
Shortly after her mother died, she was sent to Lingshan by the old lady and Zhang together for blessing because she was not known. She begged her father, but in the face of pressure from the old lady, her father had no choice but to let her be sent away.
Although let the groom care for her, but this kind of care can not warm her heart.
She sighed and closed the door of the hut. Sitting on the bench for a moment, she got up and left the hut.
There is a mountain stronghold at the end of Lingshan mountain. The owner of the mountain stronghold, whose surname is "Lan", used to be a member of her mother's family. No one knows about this. My mother gave her a jade pendant before she died. Take this jade pendant to the stronghold, and the people in the stronghold will help her.
After walking for a day and a night, she finally saw a stockade. The walls of the stockade were rows of bamboo, the top of which was extremely sharp. She handed the keepsake to the stockade guard at the gate, and one person sent her into the stockade, waiting in a room.
She sat on the bench in embarrassment, holding the silk handkerchief tightly. Soon, she heard the footsteps outside the room, looked up, and two men came towards her.
"Are you Bai Bing's daughter?"
One of the men was quite old, with a white beard reaching to his chest, but his eyes were bright and full of spirit.
"Yes..."
Bai Yinling chicken pecked rice and nodded, his hands shaking unconsciously. After leaving the general's house, it was the first time for her to see an outsider alone.
Although they were from their mother's family, their hostility made her afraid.
"Didn't LAN Bing go to the general's residence to enjoy his happiness? How did you get kicked out? "
It was another man who asked. Compared with the old man just now, he was young and his rough facial features were domineering. He pulled up a contemptuous smile and looked up and down at Bai Yinling. She was numb by his unkind eyes.
"I... I..."
It was hard for her to say, and she didn't know how to say it.
"Don't push me any more. Meng Cheng, you can arrange a residence for Yinling. I'll take her to meet the elder tomorrow."
The old are considerate and blame the young.
The young man named Meng Cheng chuckled and nodded in reply: "good."
After the old man left, only Meng Cheng and Bai Yinling were left in the room. He did not leave immediately, but stood in the same place and looked at Bai Yinling.
"Mr. Meng, can you lead me back to the courtyard?"
Bai Yinling asked.
"Don't worry," Meng Cheng laughs treacherously. He approaches Bai Yinling step by step. Bai Yinling subconsciously retreats. She retreats to the wall and can't escape.
"You... What do you want to do?"
She asked in a panic.
"Little white girl, you know that we have to find a support in our mountain stronghold. If you don't have it, it's hard for you to survive in the mountain stronghold."
There is something in Meng Cheng's words, obviously mentioning Bai Yinling. No matter how silly she is, she knows what it means.
