In ancient times, I just wanted to be a salted fish

Chapter 67: Fellow People

"Swoosh" a sharp arrow shot from behind Chen Ruotong, but she didn't feel anything at all.

At this critical moment, a knife knocked the arrow away in time, and it fell to the ground with a "clang". At this time, Chen Ruotong heard the sound and turned back sharply, and Qiao Zien appeared in front of her with a knife in his hand like a god of war.

At this moment, she is Bai Wuchang! How could he not be afraid? Did he already know it was me? Was he following me?

It turned out that after dinner, Qiao Zien went to see Chen Ruotong, and Chunhua said that the Fourth Master went for a walk in the woods in the north. He was afraid that she was in danger, so he followed her. The scene he saw was not scary but funny. She was stepping on the colorful light wheel, and the Santa Claus hat was turned upside down, with the white side as the white hat of Bai Wuchang.

Just as he covered his mouth and laughed, a sharp arrow shot out from the side, and flew towards Chen Ruotong at high speed with the wind. At the same time, a knife appeared in his hand, and he flew up and raised the knife to knock away the arrow, protecting her.

Chen Ruotong guessed that Xiao Haige followed her to protect her, so how could she blame him? How could he enter the space again?

"You came at the right time, otherwise I would have really become Bai Wuchang!" Chen Ruotong joked, and the balance bike under her feet disappeared.

More than a dozen men in black surrounded them. Chen Ruotong was a little dumbfounded. What was going on? Were they ambushed? Surrounded?

More than ten people with long swords stabbed at the two people at the same time. Qiao Zien held Chen Ruotong's hand and waved the Embroidered Spring Sword in her hand to resist. Chen Ruotong had never seen such a scene before and was so scared that she dared not move.

Qiao Zien let go of Chen Ruotong's hand and fought hard. Five or six men in black were injured and fell to the ground.

At some point, the ropes that bound Hei Wuchang, also known as Lao Liu, were untied by a man in black. He stood up and grabbed Chen Ruotong and held her hostage: "Stop, Qiao, throw the knife in your hand over here, or I'll kill him!"

A gleaming dagger was pressed against Chen Ruotong's neck. If she moved even slightly, the sharp blade would cut her throat. Chen Ruotong's mind went blank and she was paralyzed.

Qiao Zien put down the knife in her hand, and there was a bang. Lao Liu fell to the ground and didn't make any sound. Chen Ruotong was shocked. At this time, her brain was working quickly: That was the sound of gunfire! But she saw that Qiao Zien was holding a pistol in her hand, and it was smoking. Before she could see clearly, the pistol disappeared in the blink of an eye!

Chen Ruotong thought self-deprecatingly: Haha, it turns out that he is not from the Ming Dynasty, but a modern person like me! I have always been self-righteous!

The other six men in black didn't know what hidden weapon Qiao Zien was using, so they all held swords and gathered together to be highly alert. Chen Ruotong was no longer in danger, and the six people in front of him were not to be feared. So Qiao Zien put away his pistol, picked up the knife on the ground, and fought with the six men in black.

Yang Song was the most powerful one among the five. He winked and the five men surrounded him, but Yang Song flew towards Chen Ruotong with his sword in hand. He wanted to kill Chen Ruotong, avenge Lao Liu, and then kill Qiao Zien.

At this time Wei Bufan took action in time to stop Yang Song, and Chen Ruotong was almost captured again.

Since Yang Song had fought with Qiao Zien for a long time before, he could not hold on against the expert Wei Bufan and was defeated repeatedly. So he blew a whistle, and the five people fled with him with injuries.

The six seriously injured men in black on the ground were captured by Wei Bufan. Five minutes later, Zhen Yu brought more than a dozen yamen runners to take away the six who were shot dead and the five men.

Qiao Zien was so tired that she lay on the ground to rest. Chen Ruotong took off her hat and white clothes, wiped off her makeup, and tied her hair up, returning to her original appearance. Of course, her face was still covered with white, red and black spots, which were not wiped clean, and her face looked like a big clown.

After resting for a while, Chen Ruotong helped Qiao Zien up and supported him as they walked towards the farm.

Zhen Yu followed behind with a flute in his hand.

Chen Ruotong turned around and said, "Master Zhen, you came just in time. The fight is over and you're here. The one who saved me just now was one of your men, right? Thank you for saving my life!"

Zhen Yu smiled faintly and said, "Of course, of course. How can I stand by and watch someone die without helping? Besides, you are also my friend, right? When a friend is in trouble, I should help him!"

"So, you and your men have been following me for a long time?"

"No, it's just a coincidence!"

"It was quite a coincidence. It was already dark and we ran into each other in the woods!"

Zhen Yu smiled and said nothing more, staring at the embroidered spring knife in Qiao Zien's hand. Everything made sense now!

Chen Ruotong knew it very well. How many people were thinking about her? If they kept watching her every day, would her secret be known to everyone? Wouldn't that be bad?

Chen Ruotong and Qiao Zien returned to the farm, and Zhen Yu also returned to the inn.

Chen Ruotong returned to her room and immediately entered the space. She drank a bag of milk to calm herself down. Damn it, I have lived two lives, and this is the first time I have experienced a gunfight, the first time I have experienced a life-and-death situation. It was so fucking scary and exciting! Then she took a shower, washed and dressed, changed into new clothes, put on makeup, and left the space.

Qiao Zien returned to the house and changed her bloody clothes. Tiedan fetched a bucket of hot water, and he took a simple bath to calm his emotions. After dressing up, he sat at the table, waiting for Chen Ruotong's questions.

Chen Ruotong knocked on the door and entered the room, sitting opposite Qiao Zien, not saying a word, staring into his eyes.

Qiao Zien couldn't stand Chen Ruotong's gaze, so she said, "Brother Gu Chuan, if you have anything to say, just ask directly. I will answer truthfully!"

Chen Ruotong said angrily, "Humph! You are playing dumb to get the upper hand, huh? You are making fun of me like a monkey, huh? Where's your knife? Where's your gun? Take it out and let me see it!"

So, Qiao Zien took out an embroidered spring knife and a Browning pistol out of thin air and placed them in front of Chen Ruotong.

Chen Ruotong stared at the gun and asked, "Are you a soldier?"

Qiao Zien replied seriously: "Yes!"

"Then tell me how you got here?"

Qiao Zien said, "I was ambushed by the devils and killed by a bomb, and then I came to the Daliang Dynasty. When I entered this body, I felt pain all over my body, and my hand accidentally grabbed your ankle, and then I fainted. When I woke up again, I was in the Renjitang clinic, and when I opened my eyes, I saw you sleeping on a chair."

Chen Ruotong rolled her eyes, waved her hands and asked, "Wait, wait, what did you just say? Japs ambush, what Japs?"

Qiao Zien replied: "The Japanese devils. In the Marco Polo Bridge Incident in 1937, the Nationalist government did not resist, so I disobeyed orders and took a few patriotic brothers to kill the Japanese devils. I didn't expect to be ambushed by them. I was outnumbered and was killed in the explosion!"

Chen Ruotong was surprised and said, "Oh my god, we are not from the same generation. I thought we were from the same hometown, but we are only half-hometown!"

Qiao Zien looked into Chen Ruotong's eyes and said, "Brother Gu Chuan, what era are you from? I know that you and I are not from the same era!"

"I came here on March 0, . I was shopping in a big mall when there was a sudden power outage. I was transported to this dynasty all of a sudden. I don't know why, but I just traveled here!"

Qiao Zien asked curiously: "What about your glass, porcelain, lighters, and medicines? Do you have these things in your brain?"

Chen Ruotong thought about it and said, "You can put it this way! Then are your knife and gun in your brain?"

"Yes, when I woke up, these two weapons appeared in my brain. They are my two old friends. As long as I think about them, they appear in my hands. It's really magical!" Qiao Zien looked at the knife and gun on the table and smiled calmly.

Haha, we are fellow travelers after all!
