The man shook off the torch and sparks flew everywhere. He squeezed her chin again, fingers working hard. In the firelight, his eyes were filled with killing intent.

Although his jaw hurt as if he was about to crush it, Yun Qixi's expression did not change at all. He stared at him calmly, and even smiled.

"You've failed so many times, your master should be disappointed in you, right?"

The first time she saw him, she recognized him. They had not met only once, in the tomb of the Miss Er, in the Eastern Willow Village.

The man's face turned red, he gritted his teeth and said coldly, "It's best to think about it clearly, where did you put it? Is your life more important or a piece of Gold Medal For Free From Death is more important?"

Yun Qixi laughed lightly, "The Gold Medal For Free From Death can survive, is it not as important as life itself?"

The man let go and glared at her. "I'll give you one night to think it over."

After saying that, the man strode out of the cave. When the woman left, she took a torch with her remaining one still burning on the ground.

Yun Qixi listened to the sound of her footsteps as she walked far away. She calmed down under the dancing flames and carefully analyzed the situation she was facing.

Before they found the Gold Medal For Free From Death, they wouldn't dare to touch her, but if they were given it, it might not even be possible. With a Gold Medal For Free From Death in hand, it was enough to make some people become even more arrogant.

However, if this dragged on, she wasn't sure what would happen if they lost their last bit of patience.

No, she had to leave! However, her hands and feet were tied. How could she leave? In this wilderness, no one could save her. Maybe Chu Lingyun was looking for her crazily, but he couldn't find her here. The location of this place should be hidden.

Staring at the gradually shrinking flame on the torch on the ground, Yun Qixi's eyes slowly narrowed, the flame in her eyes reflected a hint of decisiveness.

She moved closer to the torch, leaned over, and brought the rope around her waist closer to the fire. He didn't dare to get too close. If he got too close, he might burn his clothes, but he couldn't go too far.

It was not easy to grasp the distance between the two.

Little by little, the fire burned the hemp rope at her waist. The hemp rope ignited, as did her clothes. Yun Qixi anxiously rolled on the ground, only then did she extinguish the fire on his clothes, but his clothes had already been burnt with a big hole.

Once again, she approached the fire and let it burn the hemp rope. Seeing that the fire was large, she rolled on the ground in time to extinguish the fire. Even so, her skin was burnt, but she gritted her teeth and endured the pain. When the hemp rope was about to break, she did not dare to burn it. Instead, she rubbed it against the sharp end of a rock that protruded from the wall.

During this entire process, Yun Qixi was already sweating profusely, even her clothes were drenched in sweat. Fortunately, the part where the hemp rope was burnt was weak, so the hemp rope was broken very quickly.

Without any hesitation, she untied herself from the rope, freed her hands, and quickly untied her feet. He lowered his head and saw that his waist was burned. However, this was much better than losing his life.

Only after exiting the cave did she discover that it was still raining outside, and it was not small at all. Yun Qixi rushed into the rainy night without hesitation.

Outside the cave was a forest. Yun Qixi walked aimlessly through the forest, her trousers were sometimes scratched by branches, but she did not stop. She did not know where she was. She only knew that she had to get away from this place as soon as possible.

In the forest on a rainy night, she didn't know which direction to run. She didn't know how long it would take for her to run out of the forest and see a living person.

Only, she had to run! Run!

The rain fell harder and harder, and Yun Qixi's entire body was drenched in rain and sweat. The cold wind, mixed with rain, hit her body and made her shiver. But she kept running, her wet trousers, her shoes full of water that made her feet grow heavier and weaker.

Fortunately, it seemed that no one had been chasing her all this time. The other party should have been prepared to tie her up tightly, so she wouldn't be able to escape.

After running for an unknown amount of time, they finally made it out of the forest. But there was no moonlight, and it was dark, and she didn't know where she was. He could only feel the mud beneath his feet, and he slipped as he walked.

After falling a few times, she had become a clay figurine, with no image left to speak of.

He missed Yun Qixi, even though she had roamed the mountains and met with danger before, she had never escaped like this before, much less been in such a sorry state.

Thinking about the mastermind, when Yun Qixi stopped to catch her breath, she allowed the ten thousand Grass Mud Horses to gallop freely in her heart countless of times.

Was she that easy to bully? One day, she would definitely take back all that she had suffered today.

Suddenly, beyond the sound of the rain, she heard something that sounded like a carriage running.

As if seeing hope, although her feet were extremely weak and her head felt a little dizzy, she still forced herself to walk forward quickly.

The rain continued to fall and did not seem to stop for a while.

Her feet slipped, and she rolled down a slope, only to hear the sound of a horse carriage getting closer. Yun Qixi crawled up, and looked in the direction of the sound.

In the rain, several carriages were slowly approaching. In other words, the official road was about 10 meters away.

Yun Qixi was very excited, sshe crawled out of the muddy water, and with enough strength, he ran over with her heavy legs.

"Stop, stop." Yun Qixi shouted as she ran to the first carriage to stop it.

If it wasn't for her, the driver probably wouldn't have been able to see a person rushing out in front of them.

After all, on such a rainy night, who would appear in a place like this where there was no village and no store in the future?

"Phew!" The driver stopped and asked, "Who?"

Yun Qixi wiped off the mud on her face and said sincerely with a smile, "This big brother, this little girl is lost here, can you please save big brother and bring me along?"

"Who is it?" A man asked as the door of the carriage was pushed open from the inside.

Yun Qixi knew that the people in the carriage were the ones who could make the decisions, and hurriedly walked closer, fawning on him and smiling, "This big brother here, this little girl humbly requests big brother to give me a ride, thank you very much."

The man was dressed plainly as he sat on the floor near the door of the carriage. Through the increasing curtain of rain, he sized up the muddy girl before him and frowned. "We are businessmen, not benevolent people."

Once Yun Qixi heard that it was a businessman, Yun Qixi was relieved. Since he was a businessman, she might as well talk business with him.

Yun Qixi thought for a while, then took down the jade bracelet from her hands. Since the situation was special, she could not care too much about it, so she handed the jade bracelet over.

"Since big brother is a businessman, you must know what's good for you. I'll just take this as a fare. I only want you to bring me along."

The man took the jade bracelet from Yun Qixi's hands and looked at it for a while. When the other people in the carriage saw the jade bracelet, their eyes lit up.

But obviously, the man with the jade bracelet was the one in charge. When he looked at Yun Qixi again, his eyes were filled with surprise, and he asked: "Where is Miss going?"

Hearing that there was something to it, Yun Qixi immediately said, "I will go wherever you guys are going, as long as it is possible to leave this place."

The man was stunned again before he said, "We're sending the goods to the city."

Yun Qixi was overjoyed, "Then it's just right, I also want to go to Shuncheng."

The man kept the jade bracelet and said, "Then come up."

Yun Qixi was very excited and quickly climbed onto the carriage.

Although the carriage was large, it was very simple and crude. Four or five people sat on the ground. In the other corner, several bags were piled up.

Yun Qixi was covered in mud as she stepped onto one of the footprints. Feeling embarrassed, she hid herself in a corner, hoping that the contaminated area would be smaller.

The men must have been asleep at first, but after a surprised glance at her, they went back to sleep.

The carriage began to move, and the man who had spoken to him at first closed his eyes.

Yun Qixi was really tired and tired, so under the shaking of the carriage, she quickly fell asleep as well.

When the sky was just starting to brighten, they passed by the river bank. The carriage stopped to rest for a while, and the rain was still falling. Yun Qixi was no longer covered in dirt, so she walked over to the river bank to wash her face and clean the excess mud on her body and clothes.

When they got back to the carriage, the men were looking at her strangely. They had been travelling for the whole night, and it was probably only now that they could see her true face. The men whispered a few words and laughed as they talked. Slowly, their smiles grew more and more obnoxious no matter how one looked at them.

Yun Qixi pretended not to see it and carefully asked the man who put away her jade bracelet.

"Um, big brother, how far is it from here to Shuncheng?"

The man tilted his head and stared at her. He exchanged a glance with the other men and said, "It's still far."

"Oh." Yun Qixi replied and hid in a corner and did not speak anymore.

Dizziness and dizziness were her more and more obvious feelings. As a doctor, she knew that she was sick. Even though he had been drenched from the night in the rain and his clothes were still on his body, he still couldn't withstand the rain.

Faintly, she hoped to get to the city of Shuncheng as soon as possible and reunite with Chu Lingyun.

She did not know when she had fallen asleep, or rather when she had fainted. All she knew was that when she woke up in a daze, she was tied up in a cabin.

The sound of the rain continued. She lay on the ground, feeling the cold but unable to get up. Only when she looked out of the small window of the cabin did she realize that it was night again.

In other words, another day had passed. She hadn't shed a single drop of water for a whole day and night. Furthermore, her body wasn't feeling well at the moment. At this moment, her head felt as if it was splitting apart.

"I really didn't expect that the jade bracelet could actually be exchanged for a hundred silver. Truly, I picked up a treasure halfway through."

"Could it be that this woman is a young miss from some lost family? I think that she is quite pretty."

"Big bro, we haven't touched a woman in a long time, let's have a good time with this woman that we picked up."

A faint voice came from outside the door. Yun Qixi knew in her heart that she had just escaped the wolf den. However, the current her didn't have the slightest bit of strength to escape. Her mind was a complete mess, and she couldn't think clearly anymore.

The door opened, and obscene faces came closer and closer. They were laughing, but Yun Qixi wanted to cry!

For the first time, she was as helpless and hopeless as a fish on a chopping block.
