With a bang, the door was kicked open.
The tall imperial knights walked into the room, holding the sword at their waist with their fingers, and their eyes were terrified.
Yin Sha and Luo Lang were immediately frightened.
Yin Sha, who was still arrogant just now, finally realized the critical situation at this moment, she shrank her body into Luo Lang's arms tremblingly, her eyes terrified.
Yu Chu sat in the corner silently.
The leading knight narrowed his eyes and looked at them, then asked, "Who are you?"
Because the two girls have black hair and skin that seems to be sprinkled with gold powder, they are oriental women at first glance, and they should not be residents of this small town.
Yin Sha was shaking uncontrollably, and Luo Lang was also pale and speechless. Yu Chu replied in a low voice:
"My lord, we are from the East. I heard that the empire is prosperous. We are going to live in the empire. We passed by here and just met some adults..."
She answered so cleverly that the knights believed the three of them when they saw their dusty appearance.
The leader waved his hand and said casually: "Then close the prisoner-of-war camp first, and then release him after confirming his identity."
"Yes." The other knights responded in unison, and came up to set up the three of them, ready to take them away.
Yin Sha was forced to get up from Luo Lang's arms.
Leaving her lover's arms, she couldn't help being a little terrified, and struggled a bit: "Didn't you say that we are not from this country—why did you arrest us..."
While obediently following the knight's strength, Yu Chu got up and cast a cool glance at Yin Sha.
Not to mention the prudence of the other party just confirms the quality of the army - even if the other party has no reason to arrest them, they have no capital to resist.
This woman... doesn't even use her brain to think.
She turned her eyes away, and as expected, the knight supporting Yin Sha clicked impatiently.
As a knight, the other party was very strong, and seemed to be pulling Yin Sha impatiently, and she immediately sobbed softly, not daring to speak anymore.
Roland was not treated as well as the ladies. The knights were too lazy to help him, and someone kicked him directly behind him, urging him to go faster.
The former gentle painter, after several months of running around, was already a bit haggard, but now he was kicked and staggered, and he looked extremely embarrassed.
He didn't dare to be dissatisfied, so he could only speed up his pace dejectedly.
Several people were taken back and put in a prisoner of war camp.
There are separate barracks for men and women, and Yin Sha watched Luo Lang being taken away with teary eyes—not because she loves him so much, but mainly because the cell where the prisoners of war are held looks gloomy, and there is no one to rely on. It is inevitable that people will feel uneasy.
She cried so sadly with teary eyes, Yu Chu just pretended not to hear, went to the corner and sat down.
There were other women in the cell, and even a little girl a few years old.
Except at the beginning, when someone saw Yu Chu and Yin Sha's hair color, they would show a slightly surprised expression. After that, everyone looked numb and turned a deaf ear to the new couple's cries.
It seems to be used to it.
Being caught as prisoners of war is the lowest group of people in the army. Crying will only attract sticks, so it's better to be quiet.
When the new couple understands this truth, they will naturally not waste their energy crying.
Yu Chu hugged his knees, buried his face in his arms, and couldn't help yawning a little.
When I was afraid of being caught, I was always on tenterhooks, but now that I was caught, I seemed to be able to sleep well.
