Chapter 541: Kidnapping
Zuo Mo opened the curtains and saw several torches flickering in front of him in the dark night.
Wild beasts were very afraid of fire in the dark. It was clear that his sudden agitation was caused by the torches.
The torches continuously moved forward, and when they got closer, Zuo Mo could even hear the sound of galloping horses.
"Help!"
Zuo Mo frowned at the coachman as the anxious call sounded out once again.
"What happened?"
"Young Lady, someone seems to have encountered bandits in front. That person is calling for help!" the coachman replied. "Should we go around them or …"
"Help!"
Before Zuo Mo could speak, a man covered in dirt appeared in front of the carriage.
"I am the young city lord of Pool City. Please send me to Pool City. I will definitely thank you greatly if you send me there."
"Let him in," Zuo Mo couldn't bear to see that.
Zuo Mo couldn't bear to see this. The man outside was overjoyed and hurriedly jumped into the car.
However, what was strange was that after the man got on the carriage, the bandits actually turned around and left after circling around a few times, and did not seem to have any intention of snatching the man away.
"Thank you guys so much. If it wasn't for you guys, I really wouldn't know what to do," the man smiled gratefully.
Zuo Mo nodded, "Since we're outside, we'll help if we can.
Coincidentally, we're going to Pool City as well, so we can take you there. But this place isn't close to Pool City. Why did you appear here? " "It's a long story. I was kidnapped by those bandits," the man sighed.
"They wanted to use me and my father to exchange for ransom, but I escaped when they let their guard down." The man sighed softly and said, "They wanted to use me and my father in exchange for the ransom, but I took the opportunity when they let their guard down to run away."
"Then your luck is pretty good."
"Then you're pretty lucky," Ye Zichen smiled, then frowned meaningfully.
The ransom that the city lord's son could exchange for was definitely not a small amount. Since the bandits dared to kidnap the city lord's son, they were definitely a bunch of criminals.
The banknote escaped just like that, and they actually didn't chase after him after he got on the carriage.
That's a bit weird!
"Maybe," the man shrugged with a smile. The man shrugged with a smile. The moment he shrugged, Ye Zichen suddenly grabbed his arm.
"Brother …"
"You are not the son of the City Lord." Ye Zichen locked his wrist tightly and frowned. "Who exactly are you? Why are you intentionally approaching us!?"
"Brother, what do you mean by this?" The man looked a bit flustered. Ye Zichen snorted, "Your hands are very rough, they are clearly hands that work a lot. As the son of the city lord, do you still need to do farm work? "
"This is practicing martial arts …"
"Hmph, practice martial arts? If he practiced martial arts, the calluses on his hands wouldn't be like this. What's more, your tiger's mouth is weak. You're not a martial artist at all. At most, you just have some strength. Tell me, who are you? "
Ye Zichen pressed the man against the car, causing the man to suddenly laugh.
"You actually found out. But what a pity, it's still too late."
Bang.
Zuo Mo, who was in the carriage, suddenly fell down. Ye Zichen also felt a bit dizzy, and saw a double image of the man in front of him.
"Go to sleep. I have attacked so many times, but I have yet to see anyone who can resist the Dreamsinking Powder!"
With that, Ye Zichen couldn't resist his drowsiness and fell asleep.
"Young Lady!"
The coachman noticed that something was wrong. The man scattered a handful of powder in his hand, causing the coachman to gradually lose consciousness and fall down.
"Zeze, an earth dragon carriage. It seems like we did something big this time."
…
"Ye Zichen …"
A soft murmur sounded out in Ye Zichen's ears. He opened his eyes in a daze, and saw that they were no longer in the carriage.
"You're awake? It seems like we were tricked, "Zuo Mo, who sat beside him, lowered her head with a sad expression.
Zuo Mo, who was sitting next to him, lowered her head with a tearful expression. Even the dumbest person could tell that the man who claimed to be the son of Pond City's city lord was lying.
"It's all my fault, if only I didn't let him get on the carriage."
At that moment, both of their hands and feet were tied up, and they were unable to move at all. Ye Zichen frowned and tried to break free from the ropes …
"Don't try, it's useless."
At that moment, a man's voice sounded out from the side.
Turning his head, he saw a man tied up not far from them. From the way the man was dressed, it was obvious that he was not an ordinary person.
"This rope is a replica of the Immortal-binding Rope. Although its effects are not as good as the Immortal-binding Rope, it still has special effects. The more you try to break free, the tighter it binds you. "
Just as the man said, when Ye Zichen tried to break free, the ropes did indeed become stronger.
Ye Zichen gave up struggling, then spoke.
"Who are you?"
"I'm Qiu Yuan, the son of Pond City's City Lord. The people who captured me are a group of horse bandits. They probably kidnapped me to exchange for money with my father."
The man sighed. Ye Zichen and Zuo Mo froze, then arched their brows.
"You're the son of Pool City's governor?"
"What's wrong? Do I not look like one?" Qiu Yuan raised his eyebrows and said, "What does your family do? These bandits always do big things. Since you're here, you're obviously not ordinary people. It's fate that we were caught here at the same time. Why don't we get to know each other? "
"That's not a bad attitude," Ye Zichen smiled.
"There's no such thing as attitude. We definitely can't escape after being tied up by the Immortal-binding Rope. Of course, you don't have to worry. These bandits only want money. As long as we give them the ransom, they won't do anything to us. It can be said that we're safe, "Qiu Yuan replied with a smile.
"So principled," Zuo Mo twitched her mouth in disdain. It was clear that she was in a rather bad mood.
"Hey, Qiu Yuan, when will your father send the money over?" At that moment, the man who lied to Ye Zichen and co., saying that he was the city lord's son walked in.
"Boss Ma, you've already captured me four times this month. Even if my father is the city lord, he won't be able to afford it!"
Qiu Yuan said helplessly. The man smiled apologetically.
The man smiled apologetically, "Sorry bro, business hasn't been good recently. You're the only one who's easier to capture. Hurry up and contact your father to pay up!"
Then, he walked over with a chuckle when he saw that Ye Zichen and Zuo Mo had woken up.
"Since you're awake, then don't just stand around. Tell me your identities so that I can contact your families. We don't have a fixed ransom for our work. The price is set according to your status. We'll release you when the money arrives, and we're honest! "
"That's great," Ye Zichen smiled playfully.
Then he raised his eyebrows, "But you might be disappointed.
"But you might be disappointed. Neither of us are from a rich family. Do you know the Spirit Breeze Village near Maple City? We're from that village."
