Ding Yanshan didn't speak, but her heart sank. The second and third types both indicate that the matter has something to do with her family. If there is really something involved, then Ju Muer was taken captive, could it be to deal with Long Er
Thinking of this, Ding Yanshan immediately felt ashamed. The last thing she wanted was to lose face in front of Long Er and Ju Muer. She couldn't swallow her anger, but she wanted face. If the kidnapping was really done by her family members, how would she hold her head up in front of Long Er in the future
"Miss Ding, no matter which one you are, you are very dangerous."
"What danger?" Ding Yanshan was still immersed in the shame that her family might be involved in it, and she didn't react for a while.
"If it's the first kind, then those things that happened next door may happen." Ju Muer bit her lip, suppressing the fear and disgust in her heart, and said quickly, "If it's the second kind, the person who ordered you to be kidnapped behind the scenes , if you can sacrifice you to deceive others, you can sacrifice more. If you don’t know who he is, you can’t understand what will happen after you stay here.”
These words stabbed Ding Yanshan hard like a knife.
Ju Muer continued: "If it is the third situation, you are even more dangerous. If the robbers want to achieve the purpose of deterrence and force your family to submit, they don't know what they will do to you. If the deterrence fails, you are in danger. It's useless here."
If it is useless, the girls know what will happen.
Ju Muer said again: "Because they are not taking precautions now, you have to find a way to leave quickly. If something happens later or we are separated, there will be no chance."
"But what can I do?" The more Ding Yanshan heard what Ju Muer said, the more frightened she became. She wanted to leave, but she didn't know what to do.
"Why did you say 'you'?" Su Qing always cared about this sentence, "It should be us, sister, let's go together."
"I can't go with you. If I don't go fast, it will be a burden. You two escape by yourself. After you get out, send rescuers to save me."
"No, I won't go without my sister." Su Qing put aside the bamboo stick and hugged Ju Mu'er's arm.
"Will you focus on the key points? It's not time to discuss who will go and who won't. How to go is the key." Ding Yanshan became angry when she saw Su Qing moaning, "We have no way out at all. Let's go. Don't say that we are being imprisoned, and there are still many bandits guarding outside, even if we can run out of this house and get lost in the deep mountains and old forests, we will feed the wolves."
Su Qing glared: "Then you just wait for those villains to chop off your fingers and cut off your ears and send them to your home, or come and spoil you when they're full."
"You..." Ding Yanshan was so angry that she wanted to curse back, but was held down by Ju Muer.
Ju Muer asked Su Qing: "Qing'er, do you remember the route?"
"Remember." She usually went to the mountains to pick flowers, and walked in various streets, and she was very good at recognizing the way.
"Okay, from now on, we must work together, you two don't quarrel anymore."
Su Qing and Ding Yanshan glared at each other, but they still said "yes" together.
Ju Mu'er was satisfied, and said, "Miss Ding, please go to the door and listen to the movement outside. Qing'er, the window is too high, you move the chair over there, and I will hold it for you, and see what's going on outside."
The three moved quickly, and Ding Yanshan put her ear to the door and waved her hands to show that she was fine. Su Qing moved the chair over and put it in place. Ju Muer supported it and stabilized it. The chair with the broken leg had to work hard to hold it. Then Su Qing stood up, just able to lie down on the window.
She looked out of the window and saw a dense forest. This room is at the end of the whole house, very close to the woods behind. But the view from the window was limited. Su Qing looked and found no one outside, so she wanted to open the window, but she pulled it, but she didn't. When she looked carefully, she found that the window was latched.
Su Qing told the situation. Ju Muer asked: "Is there anything in this room that can be used to pry?"
Su Qing and Ding Yanshan quickly swept around the house, but found nothing.
Ju Muer said again: "Hairpins and the like are also fine."
Ding Yanshan touched her head: "I have it, I have it."
She pulled out the hairpin and ran over to hand it to Su Qing. Su Qing took it, and bit by bit the wooden latch with the tip of the hairpin. Ding Yanshan watched anxiously from below, and said, "Can you do it? If not, I'll come."
"Stop talking nonsense, go and listen quickly." Su Qing was already nervous about the door, and she was very upset when she said that.
Ding Yanshan thought about it, bit her lip and ran back to the door.
After a while, Su Qing finally pushed the wooden bar aside, and was about to cheer, when Ding Yanshan lowered her voice and said urgently: "It seems that someone is coming."
She ran back while talking, Su Qing suddenly jumped off the chair, and Ding Yanshan dragged Ju Mu'er to the bed.
But they all forgot that the chair had a broken leg. As soon as Ju Muer let go of her hand, the chair started to shake, and she was about to fall down. But at this time, the footsteps outside the door became heavier, and the person who came was obviously standing outside their door.
The three girls didn't care about anything else, and quickly returned to the edge of the bed. The three hugged each other, bowing their heads and not daring to speak.
There was a sound of unlocking the door, and the broken chair was standing under the window, still shaking.
With a creak, the door opened.
The wobbly broken chair suddenly stopped at that moment.
Su Qing sneaked a glance out of the corner of her eye, feeling so nervous that her heart stopped beating. She didn't dare to look much, for fear of attracting the attention of the robbers, and then found that they had moved the chairs under the window, and found that they had pried open the window. In short, she didn't dare to breathe.
It was a short robber who opened the door. He looked around the room and saw the three girls staying on the bed obediently, then closed the door again and locked it.
The three girls froze for a while, and then dared to move. Su Qing quietly ran to the door and listened, then ran back and whispered: "Okay, let's continue, first open the window to see the specific situation outside."
Ding Yanshan nodded, and consciously took on the job of listening to the door just like before. Su Qing took Ju Muer to the chair, asked her to help the chair, and stood up again.
She carefully looked through the window to make sure there was no one outside, and then gently pushed the window, but it didn't open. Su Qing was taken aback, and took a closer look. The wooden latch had indeed been pushed away, but why couldn't the window be pushed open
She collected herself and pushed a little harder this time, but she still couldn't push it away. She was startled, increased her strength, and pushed again, but the window didn't move.
Ding Yanshan looked anxiously behind the door, ran over and asked, "What's going on?"
"It can't be opened, the latch has already been pulled." Su Qing was so anxious that she was sweating.
"Is there another place to buckle it?" Ju Muer asked quickly.
"No." Su Qing searched while answering, raised her head to look carefully, and said, "Oh, it seems that the upper part is also latched." She only opened the lower part, but the upper part was still there.
Su Qing couldn't reach the top of the window frame, so she tried tiptoeing, but it still didn't work.
Ding Yanshan said urgently: "Short, come down, I'll do it." She said, pulling Su Qing down forcefully.
Su Qing was not convinced, and muttered: "I'm only fourteen, when I grow up to your age, I can grow so tall."
Ding Yanshan ignored her, grabbed the hairpin, stood on the chair, and fiddled with the wooden latch. Seeing that she knew how to do it, Su Qing hurried to the door to listen to the movement outside.
After a while, Ding Yanshan's arms were sore, but she finally pushed the wooden bar aside. She resisted the urge to shout, and whispered: "I've done it, I've done it."
Su Qing rushed over: "Don't drive in a hurry, first check if anyone is outside."
Ding Yanshan looked through the crack of the door, shook her head and said, "No."
Su Qing said: "Let me see."
Ding Yanshan thought that this matter was really scary, so she jumped off and let Su Qing go on.
Su Qing quietly opened the window, and looked out for a while. Then it closed softly and jumped down.
"I think I can escape." She whispered excitedly, "Although this window is high, the ground below is muddy. Let's jump down. As long as we hold back and don't shout, the movement should not be too loud. After we go out, the forest in the south is very far away. It’s so close, we can quickly run inside, and once we get in, it’s easy to hide our tracks.”
"What's the weather like now?" Ju Muer asked.
"The sun is going to the west." Su Qing replied.
"Then the timing is right now, you guys have to go. They just came to investigate once, and they won't come back so soon. At this moment, they are full of wine and food, and it's time for them to relax. You go now, before it gets dark, there is still a chance Get out of this forest."
"Sister, what about you?" Su Qing was quite dissatisfied with Ju Muer's "you" one by one, "If my sister doesn't leave, I won't leave either."
"No, you have to go." Ju Muer's tone became stern, "I will follow you, except to drag you down and slow down your pace, it is useless at all. I am tired of you, if something happens to you , I can't feel at ease for the rest of my life. Qing'er, you forgot that I still have something to entrust to you, so you must be safe."
Su Qing was shocked. Ju Mu'er said again: "You went out, it's serious to find someone to rescue me quickly."
Su Qing gritted her teeth: "Okay, I'll find someone to come back and save my sister."
"My sister is waiting for you here."
Su Qing's eyes turned hot: "Sister, you must wait for me, I will come back as soon as possible."
Ju Muer was also flustered, but she knew she had to act calmly at this moment: "It's not too late, you guys go away."
At this time, Ding Yanshan asked: "How to get there?"
"Follow me!" Su Qing was full of energy when she thought about going to rescue the soldiers, "Sister, I will definitely bring someone back to rescue you."
"If you don't find me when you come back, these gangsters have also escaped. Then, Qing'er, remember, there is another clue, which is to rob the carriage we came here. I wrote my name in the carriage." She stretched out her hand, revealing Injured fingertips. It was scratched by her scratching the seam of the board in the carriage, and she wrote on the corner of the board with blood, thinking that she might be able to find the mark of this car in the future.
"I understand." Su Qing took a deep breath, holding back tears. Regardless of whether there will be a carriage or not in the future, what is in front of you is the most important thing.
"Sister, I'm leaving."
"Take care, Qinger. If... you take care of my father for me." Ju Muer shook Su Qing's hand vigorously, and couldn't help but hug her again. Maybe this is the last hug. Ju Muer bit the tip of her tongue hard, forcing back the tears. She smiled and said again, "Take care, Qing'er."
Su Qing gritted her teeth: "You wait for me, I will bring someone here soon." She turned to Ding Yanshan and said, "Let's go."
Although Ding Yanshan was not sure about running away with this girl, she would of course prefer to try this way of escape than waiting here to die. She turned her head to look at Ju Muer, and felt that she couldn't bear to leave a blind person like her here alone. She bit her lip and finally didn't know what to say, so she just said, "Then let's go."
"Take care, you must get home safely." Ju Muer said to Ding Yanshan while helping the chair.
Su Qing climbed up to the window, turned her head and told Ding Yanshan: "Remember, when you jump down for a while, you must not scream, even if you break your leg, bear with me. After landing, don't stay, don't talk , follow me to the woods over there, understand?"
Ding Yanshan nodded. Su Qing leaned out to look around, then turned her head and said softly to Ju Muer: "Sister, I'm leaving, you must wait for me."
"Okay." Following Ju Muer's reply, Su Qing jumped out of the window suddenly.
The thud was a muffled sound, neither light nor heavy, which made both Ding Yanshan and Ju Muer hold their breaths nervously, and there was no more sound after that, it should be smooth and unhindered. So Ju Muer propped up the chair and urged: "Miss Ding, you should go too."
Ding Yanshan stepped on the chair and climbed to the window sill, Ju Muer couldn't help but said again: "Miss Ding, listen to me, you can save your life by pretending to be stupid."
Ding Yanshan was startled, she kicked her foot and jumped out before she had time to think about it.
Ju Muer was in the room, hearing the sound of her landing and the sound of the two running fast, the tight string in her heart was finally loosened.
Her feet went limp, and she sat down on the ground.
The floor was cold, freezing cold. The coolness seeped into her body and poured into her heart. The icy feeling built up and finally released the fear she had been suppressing.
She was afraid, very afraid.
The silence and loneliness frightened her even more.
Ju Muer didn't know how long she had been sitting, she suddenly came to her senses, she couldn't just sit and wait for death, she must not give up until the last moment.
She got up, but couldn't touch her bamboo stick. She was a little flustered and fumbled around, and finally remembered that it was on the bed. She groped back to the edge of the bed and found her bamboo stick.
After getting the bamboo stick, she felt more at ease in her heart. But it was useless, the bamboo stick could not save her. Ju Muer sat down on the edge of the bed, she didn't know what she should do, she didn't know if Su Qing and the others could return to the city safely, and she didn't know when those robbers would come to open the door of her house.
Ju Muer trembled all over, she didn't dare to think about what would happen after they opened this door, she didn't dare to think about what would happen to herself. But she suddenly thought of Long Er, she thought of his arrogance, his love for face, his narrow-mindedness, and how kind he was to her.
