"Brother, you and I will each lead a team to outflank this group of horse bandits." The reason why the third prince did this was to spread out the troops and make the horse bandits' operations go more smoothly.
He also wanted the soldiers to conserve their strength and rescue the dozen men and women who had been robbed in the middle of the road, so as not to let their honors be in question.
If Xiaobai is missing a beautiful girl, there will be no problem. If there are more than a dozen missing, it will be suspected of being disrespectful to the gods. Their country cannot afford it.
After the troops were divided into two groups, the eldest prince had rescued many beautiful girls and some treasures.
The horse bandit was hired this time, and he had already received a generous reward. He was facing the Royal Guards again, and the risk was high. After robbing him once, the focus of the operation was to escape.
Xiaobai, like other show performers, fled in a panic, half of it was acting, and the other half was really scared.
Even if she is practicing now, she will still be instinctively afraid of bandits.
A tall horse bandit came straight towards them. The show people running with her scattered, and she ran forward as hard as she could.
No matter how much people can't outrun the horse, the horse bandit picked her up, put her on the front, and said with a smile: "Be honest, don't move around, you will fall and be trampled to death by the horse. I can't save you." . ”
Sounds like a very young man, but his skills and equestrian skills are not weak.
Xiaobai knew in her heart that this person was arranged to snatch her away, so she remained motionless.
After they ran for several miles in the forest, the third prince was left far behind, and the officers and soldiers disappeared.
Xiaobai was a little confused and said: "Shouldn't you let the third prince rescue me?"
The horse thief laughed and said, "Miss Qianjin, you need to be more realistic in this act. , otherwise it would be so easy for him to save you, how could he openly ask for you?"
Xiao Bai thought so, so he didn't ask any more questions and let him run wildly in the forest. But this event was indeed not arranged by the third prince, and it was different from what was agreed in advance.
After chasing for a while, he still didn’t see Ma Thief and Xiaobai, so he knew something was wrong. He was afraid that Ma Thief would really want to plunder after seeing Xiaobai’s good looks, so he hurriedly asked his subordinates to meet Ma Thief contact the leader.
The horse bandit who was responsible for robbing Xiaobai was actually the leader of this group of horse thieves. He was originally a prince from a kingdom outside the Great Wall. When his country was destroyed, he walked out with the remaining soldiers and became a plundering bandit.
Therefore, although he is young, he is full of strategy and his subordinates are all convinced of him.
When a bandit has been a bandit for a long time, he becomes a little more gangster, and he doesn’t want the third prince to get the woman he wants so easily.
The horse bandit has been in the mountains and forests here a lot, and he knows where it is not easy to be found. His horse is so handsome that it dares to jump into the mountain streams that ordinary horses dare not jump over.
The two gradually reached an inaccessible place and stopped. Xiaobai knew something was wrong when she saw this, but she was very calm and asked: "What do you want to do?"
The horse thief hugged him and dismounted, jokingly said : "I want to see what the woman that the Third Prince spends so much to rob from God looks like."
The tribute performers all wear white veils, which are thin but can make people see clearly. The appearance of the wearer.
Xiaobai's face was expressionless. Naturally, the horse thief would not ask for her consent and directly took off her veil. He was instantly stunned, "Sure enough, there is some value in being robbed."
Xiaobai retreated Taking a step back, "The focus of the Third Prince's operation is me. If you don't send me back, he won't give you the remaining half of the reward."
"Why are you such a boring woman? You don't want to Do you know what I look like? Maybe you think I’m better-looking than the third prince, so you don’t want to leave.”
“The third prince is handsome, but my admiration for him is not because of his appearance. "
The horse bandit took off his hood, and Xiaobai saw a very handsome face, coupled with his star-like eyes, it really made people feel dazed for a moment.
Tang Yue also felt that this horse bandit was good-looking and should be a person with spiritual roots. There was such a person in the royal capital at that time.
"How about it? I didn't disappoint you, did I? If you follow me, you can still live a prosperous life."
Xiaobai calmed down and regained his composure, "My value is not as good as the remaining half of the reward. It is enough for you to live a peaceful life for three years without having to work hard to plunder." The horse bandit was silent for a moment, this woman Not only is she beautiful, but she also has a calm mind, which is truly unique.
He said: "You can cooperate with me, and we will get the remaining reward together."
"Why should I cooperate with you? The person I admire is Third Prince."
Ma Bandit smiled evilly, "If you have to follow me, then you will cooperate with me."
Xiao Bai heard his threat. He glanced at him with disgust and said, "I would rather die than surrender."
The bandit suddenly didn't want her to see him like this, and said softly: "I'm just teasing you, I won't do this. I never do this on weekdays." He would not let his subordinates do this to bully women and children."
Xiao Bai recalled the rumors he had heard before. There was indeed no theory that horse bandits raped women and killed young and old.
They usually just quickly deal with those who resist, without killing them.
The horse bandit's eyes sparkled, "Besides, I am still a virgin, and I have never had an easy time with women."
Xiaobai's voice had no emotion at all, "These things have nothing to do with me. I ask the leader to keep his promise and be a man of his word."
The leader of the horse bandits found this woman more and more interesting. She tried to find something he cared about, first with inducements and then with reputational persuasion.
"I can get the treasure, and I can also get you. I have the strength to do this."
"Then you can try this."
The horse bandit decided to fight with She spent a while and said, "Then just stay here alone, I'm leaving."
After saying that, he jumped on the horse and galloped away, not believing her little A woman is not anxious or afraid when she is alone here.
Xiaobai is really not in a hurry. On the contrary, she is very grateful to the leader of the horse bandit for underestimating the enemy and leaving her alone here.
In addition to improving her physical fitness, she practiced Taoism so that she would have enough strength to save herself in such unexpected situations.
She didn't even put away her complicated clothes. She clicked a few times and left, flying towards the temple. She should be able to meet the third prince on the way.
The leader of the horse bandits walked around a few times and received a message from his subordinates, asking him where he was now. Should the deal with the third prince continue?
He released the dove and pretended he didn't see it. Life is short, so do whatever you want. It's almost time. He wants to go back and see if our lady is scared.
When he returned to the place, he naturally didn’t see Xiaobai. He walked around a few times and didn’t see anything. He thought it was a man being dragged away by a wild beast.
Hurrying to check for traces of beasts in the mountains, a black bear was indeed found, but Xiaobai’s figure or body was not seen.
He suddenly had an incredible idea in his mind. Could it be that the rich young lady has gone back?
After eliminating all possibilities, the remaining one, even if it seems impossible, is the truth.
The leader rushed towards the temple. If he saw Xiaobai again, he must take him away directly.
After all, Xiaobai had only practiced Taoism for half a year, and her speed was still not comparable to that of a superior war horse. The leader quickly caught up with her.
Knowing that someone was chasing her, she still didn’t want to reveal that she knew Taoism, so she stopped.
The leader saw the white figure appearing in his eyes. She looked at him calmly, her hair and clothes were not messy at all, and she felt like she was a phantom.
The horse gradually approached her, Xiaobai raised his head, and the leader realized that this was a real person and not his imagination.
"How did you get to such a far place alone? Do you know magic?"
