The situation was urgent, and Yun Gui didn't have time to see Ling Qingwan's expression. He carried Ling Qingwan out of the room, Sui An closed the door, and the three of them left in a hurry.
Suddenly, a bright light appeared in the darkness. Tears seemed to have broken off the string and flowed down Ling Qingwan's cheeks.
Not to mention whether the Northern Zhou people could discover that the farmer helped her deliver the message, when they woke up the next day and saw that Ling Qingwan was not there, they would definitely attack the farmer and the woman.
Thinking of this, Ling Qingwan only hated herself for being incompetent.
The couple risked their lives to help her, so she should protect them.
However, she betrayed the trust of a pair of kind-hearted people and pushed the parents into a desperate situation.
Ling Qingwan was both grief-stricken and powerless at this moment. She wanted to break free from Yun Gui and return to her room while the Bei Zhou people were away. However, her acupuncture points were locked, and Ling Qingwan was like a fish on a chopping board, letting Yun Gui slaughter her.
She knew that Yun Gui was trying to save her, but if her parents were in danger, she would never forgive Yun Gui even if she died.
After passing through a dense forest and reaching the mountain road, Yun Gui had no idea what Ling Qingwan was thinking. He quickly got on the carriage, and Sui An drove the horse and took the two of them to the nearest post station at the foot of the mountain.
"I'm afraid they will find out you're gone and chase after us. This place is some distance from the villa, let's go to the post station first, and I'll help you unblock the acupoints." Yun Gui and Ling Qingwan said in a gentle voice.
The light in the carriage was dim, and Yun Gui didn't notice that Ling Qingwan looked sad.
After about an incense stick of time, the few people arrived at the post station.
Yun Gui carried Ling Qingwan into the room and asked Sui An to guard outside.
"Anyone who comes must report to me first." Yun Gui solemnly reminded Sui An.
"Understood, sir." Sui'an agreed.
As he spoke, his eyes inadvertently looked at Ling Qingwan who was lying on the bed.
"Sir, why do I feel that there is something wrong with the second Miss Ling?" Sui'an frowned and tilted his head to look at Ling Qingwan.
Of course something was wrong. She now wished she could kick Yun Gui and Sui An to death.
Only then did Yun Gui notice that Ling Qingwan was crying.
"But did I hurt you when I hugged you just now?" Yun Gui asked with concern.
He took out a clean silk handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped the tears from Ling Qingwan's cheeks.
"I am hugging you because you have been acupunctured and cannot leave. I have no choice but to do this. If you think I am being rude, I will apologize to you after I have opened your acupuncture points."
After saying that, he let Sui'an go.
Ling Qingwan and Yun Gui were the only ones left in the room. Yun Gui opened the medicine box and took out a cloth bag, which contained hundreds of silver needles of all sizes, neatly arranged.
Yun Gui did not delay and immediately tried to find a way to help Ling Qingwan unblock the acupuncture points.
Because the Northern Zhou people had a special acupuncture method, and although Yun Gui was good at medicine, he was not as good as Huai En after all. There were always diseases in the world that he could not solve. Yun Gui did not close his eyes for the whole night.
Yun Gui didn't sleep, so Sui An naturally couldn't sleep either. He just stood outside the door for three or four hours.
At dawn, Sui'an could no longer hold on and took a nap against the door. Suddenly, he heard a crisp "pop" sound, which scared Sui'an sobered up quickly.
When he opened the door, he saw Ling Qingwan bending over and hurriedly putting on her shoes. Next to him, Yun Gui was sitting on the bed, with a red mark on his fair cheek.
"Ling Qingwan! What do you mean? My young master saved you and you beat him!" Sui An was so angry that he didn't care about anything else and cursed at Ling Qingwan.
"Sui'an!" Yun Gui scolded Sui'an.
As if everything around her had nothing to do with her, Ling Qingwan stood up and walked straight to the door.
As a result, after taking only two steps, she felt dizzy and almost fell down.
"You've been acupunctured for a long time. If you don't rest well, your body won't be able to take it." Yun Gui was worried and quickly got up from the bed.
Ling Qingwan slowed down for a moment, then continued walking forward and stepped out of the room.
"Are you going to the villa? Or going back to Shangjing? I have a carriage, I will take you back." Yun Gui followed Ling Qingwan.
She had just escaped from the Northern Zhou people, and suddenly she was leaving without saying a word. How could Yun Gui feel at ease
"Take me back to my original place, back to the Northern Zhou people." Ling Qingwan said coldly to Yun Gui.
According to her physical condition, it would take some time to go back. Yun Gui happened to have a carriage, which could be put to use.
She now had to ride her horse as fast as possible and get back to the cabin.
"Wait for me, brother, sister."
Ling Qingwan muttered to herself.
"You want to go back?" Yun Gui was shocked.
She had finally escaped, why did she fall into the trap again
"Sir, you'd better leave her alone. If she wants to be bullied by those Northern Zhou people, then let her be bullied. No matter how hard you try, she will just ignore your kindness."
Sui An was really irritated by Ling Qing Wan's attitude. Seeing Ling Qing Wan was courting death and insisted on going back, Sui An couldn't help but complain.
"Send me back!" Ling Qingwan was anxious and yelled at Yun Gui.
As a last resort, Ling Qingwan was determined and Yun Gui had no choice but to let Sui An drive the horse to send Ling Qingwan back.
On the way, Ling Qingwan didn't say a word to Yun Gui.
She sat in the corner, her hands tightly clutching her sleeves, tears falling one by one.
Yun Gui asked Ling Qingwan several times what was wrong, but Ling Qingwan refused to answer. Yun Gui sighed helplessly and stopped bothering her.
After returning to the wooden house, Ling Qingwan heard the sound of a baby crying in the house before she got off the carriage.
Ling Qingwan's heart skipped a beat and she quickly ran into the room.
The side room next to it was the room Ling Qingwan stayed in yesterday. The farmer and the woman were lying on the ground, no longer breathing.
The surroundings were covered with blood and the smell of blood had not yet dissipated. Ling Qingwan estimated that the two people must have been killed by the Northern Zhou people in the middle of the night yesterday.
Her legs went limp and she stumbled a few steps.
Yun Gui stepped forward to support her, but Ling Qingwan waved him away.
On the bed, the child was crying.
Ling Qingwan came to her senses and hugged the child tightly.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." She choked and apologized to the child while crying.
What did this couple do wrong? They were just unlucky to run into the Northern Zhou people and to run into her. Ling Qingwan felt extremely upset. At this moment, she wished she could die for this couple.
Thinking of what the woman said to her yesterday and the promise she made to her, Ling Qingwan felt so painful that she couldn't help but tremble all over.
When Yun Gui saw this scene, he was also panicked.
"Wanwan, stop crying."
"Don't call me Wanwan!" Ling Qingwan already hated Yun Gui, and hearing him call her so intimately, Ling Qingwan felt even more disgusted.
"What right do you have to yell at my young master! If my young master hadn't saved you last night, you might be the one dying here!"
Yun Gui likes Ling Qingwan, so no matter how Ling Qingwan scolds him, he can't retaliate, but Sui An is different.
Sui An had been puzzled as to why Yun Gui was so obsessed with Ling Qing Wan, and even dared to disobey the orders of the Valley Master for her. Now seeing Ling Qing Wan's ungrateful look, he was even more furious.
