Traveling through ancient times: daily life on the run

Chapter 390 Why Do You Want to Escape

It was already late at night when Qin Bingrui's team arrived at Shaobu's military camp.

After capturing a few foreign soldiers walking on the road and asking around, they found out that it was Chi Nur from their tribe who had taken the Han woman away, and they had received benefits from Chi Nur and followed him out to support him.

Zhu Jinyou was very surprised. Later, when he thought of Luo Yan's true identity, he remembered that when he led the army to annihilate the Qi Yue Kingdom, there was indeed a young and warlike general who escaped with a princess of the Qi Yue royal family.

At that time, Zhu Jinyou was full of blood and very warlike. He led a large group of troops to chase Chi Nur and the fallen princess because he was afraid of letting the tigers go back to the mountains, fearing that they would make a comeback and take revenge in the future.

Zhu Jinyou remembered what the late emperor had said to him: to show mercy to the enemy would be cruel to oneself. Moreover, they could be captured as prisoners of war, but they must never be allowed to make a comeback.

Today, all this has really proved what the late emperor said.

At that time, Chi Nur asked a maid to take the princess away on horseback, and he and a dozen guards stayed behind to intercept Zhu Jinyou's army.

Zhu Jinyou remembered that day, when an archer behind him who never missed his target was about to shoot at the fleeing woman, he finally blocked the archer with his hand. Even if a weak woman escaped, she would probably not cause any big waves.

At that time, Chi Nur was more skilled in fighting, and perhaps because of his strong desire to survive, he managed to escape death. These past events suddenly came to Zhu Jinyou's mind vividly. He could not have imagined that five years later, he would be catching up with him again.

This time, he wanted to find this royal descendant of a foreign race and ask her clearly whether everything was carefully planned by her?

This time Luo Yu ran faster than ever before.

If she is caught by Zhu Jinyou this time, her life or death will be even more unpredictable. I originally thought that Concubine Ying's identity was outrageous enough, but now she has the identity of a princess of a fallen country.

Xuelian, who was following closely, clearly felt Miss Luo Hong's nervousness. She thought to herself that the girl must have recovered her past memories. If Lord Chi Nur was not in trouble, he would definitely be very happy, right?

How can two legs outrun a four-legged horse?

What's more, there were no large objects blocking the view around, so it would be very easy for a smart guy like Zhu Jinyou to catch up with her.

Luo Yu covered her headscarf tightly, thinking that the best way would be to change her clothes instead of running away. Unfortunately, her mind was blank at that time, and she only thought that Zhu Jinyou would not find out so early.

Miss Xuelian and several other servants knew kung fu, so they told Miss Luo Hong the specific escape direction and secret code, and they just stayed behind to block the enemy.

Luo Yu originally wanted to give up, but seeing Xuelian was so determined, he had to agree. It would be better to run away this way, as he could get rid of all the people on both sides.

It turned out that Chinar had more than just these few guards. When some passers-by on the road saw Miss Xuelian start to act, they all took out their weapons.

Song Si unsheathed his sword and said to Zhu Jinyou, "Master, I will take the brothers to deal with these people, you go after Miss Luo Yu."

Unfortunately, the person Xuelian led to block was this big shot. Zhu Jinyou could not have imagined that they were all determined to fight to the death.

Luo Yu thought as he ran, "Just hold on for five more minutes, then I can get on my horse and flee." From what Xuelian had said, the people waiting for her were all warriors from their Qiyue Nation. They had a shortcut through the snowy mountains that could take her away from this vast grassland. From then on, no one would be able to find her, and she could live the life she wanted, free and worry-free.

Luo Yu knew that no matter where she went, Qin Bingrui would find her. No matter whether it took one, two or ten years, they would meet one day.

Seeing the group of people on horseback waiting for her on a hill, Luo Yu was extremely excited, but there was also a little reluctance in her excitement. She turned around and looked at them reluctantly, Zhu Jinyou, goodbye!

When she turned around, she found a warhorse rushing towards her at the speed of an arrow. She had no time to react. She only saw a man bending down, holding her waist with one hand, and gently lifting her up, carrying her perfectly onto the horse.

The group of people not far away saw this scene and secretly cried out in alarm. More than a dozen masters were riding towards them on horseback.

Zhu Jinyou made a gorgeous U-turn and wrapped Luo Yu's entire body tightly in his arms.

The horse galloped across the vast grassland at the speed of lightning. Luo Yu felt that his heart was about to jump out of his throat.

Zhu Jinyou's low and hoarse voice rang in her ears: "Miss Luo Yu, why do you want to escape?"

Luo Yu's headscarf was almost blown apart by the wind. She held the horse's reins tightly with both hands, fearing that she would be thrown out.

I don’t know how long I ran, but the people behind me were getting farther and farther away.

Perhaps, they were attacked by something and could not catch up.

The grassland was boundless and the horses had no sense of direction. After slowing down, Luo Yu looked up at the sunrise in the east behind him and realized that they had been running west.

After running for an unknown amount of time, Luo Yu felt thirsty and hungry. She touched the small bag she was carrying, and the only bag of gold inside had fallen out. It must have been thrown out when Zhu Jinyou carried her onto the horse.

Zhu Jinyou sensed her uneasiness and whispered in her ear, "What's wrong?"

"The purse fell."

Zhu Jinyou burst out laughing. This really resembled her character of loving money like her life.

"It's just a bag of money, what's there to be afraid of?"

"Without money, how are we going to get food and lodging? Think about it, we've been running leisurely for most of the day, and we don't even know how to go back. Can you still find the way you came? Even if you can, you still need to eat on the way!"

Sure enough, a small western town appeared not far away.

Zhu Jinyou was not unhappy. Instead, he asked her, "So you mean you are willing to go back with me?"

He didn't care about the point of her words at all. Luo Yu turned around and glared at him, then asked, "Do you have any money on you?"

Their faces were only half an inch apart at the moment, and the horse was moving slowly forward. Zhu Jinyou held her tightly to his chest with one hand, and when he turned his head, the atmosphere was very ambiguous.

Luo Yu took the opportunity to slowly turn his head, trying to ease the embarrassment.

Unexpectedly, he bent down and kissed her on the lips.

Luo Yu turned his head away feeling very uncomfortable, and only touched him lightly, just a quick taste.

Zhu Jinyou gave a bitter laugh, his tone much colder: "Miss Luo Yu, do you really want to leave me? Could it be that your General Chi Nur is more favored by you?"

Luo Yu pretended not to care: "Since you know my identity, why did you chase me back?"

"Then can you tell me why you wanted to escape when you saw me? Have you been lying to me all along?"

"What did I lie to you about?"

"You, you stole my heart."
