"No Wedding Unless Enemies and Lovers" 《不是冤家不拜堂》Chapter 136

 Ji Ling Xue's eyes brightened, travelling through a gap, this was brilliant flying needle skill!

A trace of worship appeared in Ji Ling Xue's eyes as she looked at Xiao Yi Chen, prince, that was so cool!

The light inside the room suddenly went out, a low groan was heard, Xiao Yi Chen pulled Xiao Yi Chen's hand away and jumped to the ground, immediately bright torch light surrounded the entire study.

The prince's guards who Xiao Yi Chen trained rushed here without delay, long swords drawn out, bow and arrow drawn, the atmosphere became tense instantly.

Xiao Yi Chen said: "The person inside the room come out."

It was very quiet in the room, so quiet that it seems like there's no one inside, Xiao Yi Chen's eyes sunk, he moved forward, raising his feet he kicked the door down and entered. 

A bright dagger flew past Xiao Yi Chen's nose, Xiao Yi Chen reached out two fingers to hold the dagger, tilting his head to look at the dagger's owner, this person was completely covered in black, their face couldn't be seen, however it wasn't Ji Yu Qing.

Xiao Yi Chen frowned, the person in black on seeing the dagger had been controlled, raised their leg to kick his stomach, Xiao Yi Chen flexibly avoided this fatal kick, one hand grabbing the person's leg, he asked in a deep voice: "Who are you?"

The person in black didn't reply, continuing to make moves to escape, from somewhere an arrow came flying, hitting the person in black in the arm.

The person in black's eyes turned cold, looking around, they immediately found a way to escape, they made a move and disengaged themselves, with a leap, like a carp they landed behind Ji Ling Xue, taking the short arrow stuck in their arm they held it against Ji Ling Xue's neck, "No one move, prince Chen, if you move, you're delicate as a flower princess will be done for...hehe, prince Chen's weak points, was indeed this princess, princess...hehe..." This person's voice was rough, it was impossible to tell if they were male or female.

Ji Ling Xue's forehead was filled with black lines, if Xiao Yi Chen hadn't dragged her over to watch, it wouldn't have ended up this way, using her as a hostage they really thought she was a pushover.

Xiao Yi Chen frowned, he had thought it was Ji Yu Qing in the study, but he was tricked by a facade.

Xiao Yi Chen didn't move, his eyes fixed only on the pointed arrow covered with blood at Ji Ling Xue's neck.

He however saw Ji Ling Xue wink at him, not scared of being held hostage at all, making him uncertain if he wanted to cry or laugh.

Xiao Yi Chen calmed completely down and heard the rough voice continue to say: "If you don't want this woman to die, then quickly prepare a horse rations and a bundle, when I'm successfully out of the city gates will I let this woman go."

Xiao Yi Chen nodded, very compliant he got Chi Feng to prepare a horse and a bundle.

The person in black sneered: "Prince Chen, don't play tricks on me, otherwise I'll cut off this woman's hands first." As they spoke they raised their hand, the sharp arrowhead aiming down, accompanying Xiao Yi Chen's "No", Ji Ling Xue dropped a bottle to the ground.

The person in black once again raised the arrow to Ji Ling Xue's neck, smiling: "Princess don't you feel tired carrying so many bottles on you?"

Ji Ling Xue: "..."

Damn it, does this person have eyes on the back of their head, they were clearly having a standoff with Xiao Yi Chen, how did they notice she wanted to use that poison on them?

Very soon Chi Feng returned, leading a horse along, the saddle was immediately put on with a bundle hanging off it, the person in black carried Ji Ling Xue onto the horse, they stabbed the horse with the short arrow in their hand, the horse felt the pain, raising it's hooves it ran off.

Ji Ling Xue's body moved, wanting to use the momentum to jump off the horse, her body was held back and she was upside down, her face was hit by the horsetail a few times, it was so painful her eyes brimmed with tears.

Ji Ling Xue rolled her eyes, how could she be so unlucky, the last time she was this unlucky it was when she met the perverted Dayan third prince.

Dayan third prince's name was Yuchi Gong Ru with a resolute personality, wolf like temper, mistrusting, liking to kill.

These were things Ji Ling Xue heard of later, fortunately Yuchi Ru Ge appeared and took Yuchi Gong Ru back to Dayan.

Wait a minute, she seems to be missing something....Ji Ling Xue lift her head with all her effort to look at the lunatic on the horse, the person in black's back which was making her feel dizzy that she wanted to throw up, her thoughts brightened little by little.

With the north wind, Ji Ling Xue's voice carried a trace of uncertainty, "You are...Yuchi Gong Ru..." Dayan's third prince, you didn't go back with Yuchi Ru Ge...

The person in black on the horse having heard what was said found time to glance down at Ji Ling Xue, lips raising, a strange smile on their face, "Princess Chen, so you still remember this prince..."

Ji Ling Xue: "..."

Dadada, sound of horse hooves came behind, Ji Ling Xue struggled to look back, amongst the torch light, she saw Xiao Yi Chen's face.

"Princess Chen, don't have too much hope, they won't be able to catch up." As he spoke he took the arrow out from the horse's hind, when he took it out blood flowed out, the horse let out a whine in pain, running even more frantically, scaring the horses behind so much they didn't dare get close.

"Ji Ling Xue!" Xiao Yi Chen worried voice entered Ji Ling Xue's ears with the wind.

At this moment Ji Ling Xue was sprawled over the horse like a dead dog violently throwing up, tears streaming as she did, she was confused and disorientated from it, if she knew there would be so much jolting at night, she wouldn't have eaten so much in the afternoon...

Whoosh, whoosh! The sound of long arrows cutting through the air came from behind, despite Yuchi Gong Ru's arm being hurt, he still moved about normally, it didn't hinder him at all, it was like the blood wasn't from him.

Hearing the movement in the air, Yuchi Gong Ru pulled Ji Ling Xue up to be a human shield behind him, Ji Ling Xue's body went limp, her limbs were powerless, she saw the arrows draw closer, she shut her eyes, waiting for them to hit her.

Dadada! 

Three arrows from out of nowhere struck the previous arrows down but one still struck Ji Ling Xue's thigh, Ji Ling Xue clenched her teeth and groaned, cold sweat covered her forehead.

Yuchi Gong Ru laughed bitterly: "Prince Chen's skills are so poor, see how your princess is now suffering... Zezeze..."After speaking he laughed out loudly.

Ji Ling Xue ground her teeth, damn pervert!

It fell silent behind them, the biting cold wind made Ji Ling Xue's cheeks ache and her head go dizzy.

The sound of horse hooves behind them gradually faded, she used all her strength to turn her head, she could only see the outlines of the mountain range, Yuchi Gong Ru's horsemanship was really amazing, he even managed to lose Xiao Yi Chen and the others who were pursuing closely.

Yuchi Gong Ru seemed to know what Ji Ling Xue was thinking, sneering: "Don't look, even prince Chen's speed can't keep up, haha, my Dayan is the country of horses, you're lower region horsemanship cannot compare."

Ji Ling Xue rolled her eyes, the pain in her thigh had already been numbed, she raised her head to Yuchi Gong Ru asking: "You're already safely out of the city, Xiao Yi Chen can also not catch up, why haven't you let me go?"

Having heard what was said, Yuchi Gong Ru looked at Ji Ling Xue like he was looking at an idiot, "You wan to go? You want to jump off this frantically running horse, do you know the consequences?"

Ji Ling Xue said to herself: If I don't fall to my death, I would be crippled, but at least it's better than being with you pervert.

Yuchi Gong Ru suddenly grinned, his white teeth were as bright as the moon in the depth of night, wolf like teeth, Yuchi Gong Ru said: "There's a cliff up ahead, seems I need to fall with you." As he spoke he held Ji Ling Xue by the waist, toes on the horse's hind, he used it's momentum, the horse hissed in pain, it's miserable cries filled the air.

Xiao Yi Chen brought his men hurriedly to the cliff, looking at the black bottom of the cliff his hands clenched into fists, he had miscalculated...

Ji Ling Xue felt like she was a frail piece of fallen leave, fluttering in the air when a sudden cold air blew by, she was flipped over and blown even further away.

Noise came into her ears, she actually wasn't dead!

Ji Ling Xue's eyelids moved, the rocking motion increased, Ji Ling Xue slowly opened her eyes, around her was sat five women, the girl wearing thick cotton clothes held a cloth in her hand, and had been helping her wipe the sweat off her forehead.

Ji Ling Xue looked around, they were locked in a carriage, the carriage swayed as it ran towards an unknown destination.

"Who are you?" Ji Ling Xue asked, opening her mouth did she then know she had her acupuncture point struck, she couldn't make any sound, a piercing pain came from her leg, making her frown.

The girl in thick cotton clothes shook her head, indicating she also couldn't speak

Ji Ling Xue came up with a bright idea, using her strength to sit up, she pulled over the girl in thick cotton clothes hand and wrote on her palm.

Ji Ling Xue said: Where are we, who are you?

The girl in thick cotton clothing said: Are you from Dongqi? We're in a carriage, I like you also woke up to find myself here, this carriage has always been moving, we haven't been outside, I don't know where this is?"

Thinking of the hubbub of missing women cases in the capital recently, Ji Ling Xue looked at the women in the carriage, there were all around fifteen or sixteen years old, even though they looked thin and pallid their features were regular.

Ji Ling Xue: I couldn't accidentally have been caught up in the missing girls cases right? So the criminal is Yuchi Gong Ru? Considering how perverted he is, he seems even more like the faceless corpses murderer...

Without any ideas the vexed Ji Ling Xue hit her head against the wall, a low voice came from outside the carriage: "Keep quiet, otherwise I'll rape then kill you!"

Ji Ling Xue shivered, she somehow felt this voice was familiar but couldn't recall where she had heard it before at this moment.

Ji Ling Xue and the girl in thick cotton clothes struck up conversation by writing, it was tentatively confirmed, the girl in front of her was the girl who had gone up the mountain to pick herbs and suddenly went missing, Lian Xin.

It wasn't convenient for Ji Ling Xue to tell her who she actually was, she made up a story, she had been sleeping at home and was waking at night by strange movements, after waking up she found herself being touched, and after a fierce battle of wits with that kidnapper she was injured and taken.

Lian Xin looked at Ji Ling Xue sympathetically, then fell silent holding her hand.

The carriage finally stopped, it was very quiet outside when the window curtain was raised by someone, a large bowl of rotten rice was pushed to the middle of the carriage, all the girls seeing this shook their heads and sighed.

Ji Ling Xue's lips twitched, from afar you could smell the rancid rice, was he treating them like pigs?

Ji Ling Xue wrote on Lian Xin's palm: You have all been locked in here the entire time, being treated this way, why don't you run? 

Lian Xin wrote: It's not that we don't, rather we can't, two had run off before, but not long after they were caught and brought back, they've drugged us, we have the strength to write, but not the strength to run, what's more we've been muted, we can't even call out for help.
