I'm the Farmgirl You Can't Mess With

Chapter 209: Counter Abduction

Editor: Atlas Studios

Seeing that the Mu family was so frightened that their faces were pale, Old Man Sun felt a little embarrassed. He quickly shut his mouth. If something really happened to Mu Yangling, considering Mu Shi was away at the army, they would really be reduced to… a family of the old and weak.

“You don’t have to be anxious. With Ah Ling’s great strength, ordinary people can’t deal with her. I’ll ask my son to go to the camp and beg the Little General. Perhaps he can save her.”

Shu Wanniang wanted to go personally, but Great-aunt grabbed her hand firmly. “At least think about these two children. You can’t go. That path is usually remote and someone might just knock you out and drag you away.”

Shu Wanniang broke free from her hand and said, “Aunt, Big Brother Sun might not be able to see Little General even if he goes. Let him go with me. No one would dare to abduct a person on the road in broad daylight. Our place is not far from the camp, and there are still soldiers inspecting the village. Aunt, you shouldn’t go home either. Just wait here with the children. There are many people here, and the villagers are all here. No one dares to do anything here. I’ll entrust the kids to you.”

Unable to hold Shu Wanniang back, Great-aunt watched helplessly as she and Old Man Sun’s eldest son hurried towards the military camp.

Mu Yangling followed the soldier forward. When they reached the fork in the road, the soldier suddenly said, “Miss Mu, Little General will be entering the county in a while. I’m afraid he’s waiting for us over there. Let’s leave quickly.”

The soldier was pointing at a small forest. Mu Yangling stopped in her tracks and asked in confusion, “That’s not close to the road into the county.”

“It’s shady there. We can’t ask Little General to wait for you under the sun on such a hot day, right? Hurry up and follow me,” the soldier explained.

As expected, Mu Yangling did not ask further and obediently followed him in.

This was a small forest. The trees in the northeast and northwest directions had been cut down and planted with sorghum. To the east was the way into the county, and to the west was a mountain. The forest was neither big nor small, so it was not a problem to hide someone. However, if there was a huge commotion, people passing by outside would definitely notice it easily.

However, to them, this was an excellent location that would allow them to easily move a person. As long as they knocked that person unconscious and carried them onto the carriage, no one would know what was inside.

Mu Yangling tried to figure out what they were thinking, taking every step with extra caution.

She didn’t know how strong they were, so she left a hint for Old Man Sun and Shu Wanniang. She couldn’t avoid it either.

It was better for them to look for her than for Bowen and the others. If she couldn’t get rid of them altogether this time, she probably wouldn’t dare to let Bowen study in the academy going forward.

After walking more than 20 steps into the forest, five burly men appeared in front of her. Mu Yangling’s tense heart suddenly relaxed, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly as if she had not detected abnormality of the situation. She asked sweetly, “Uncle, where’s Little General?”

The eyes of the burly man in the lead flashed. Smiling, he said, “Little General is anxious and has gone into the city. We’ll bring you to see him now.” As he spoke, he reached out to grab Mu Yangling’s arm.

Mu Yangling even replied with a smile on her face, “Okay.” However, her right hand quickly grabbed his outstretched hand and pulled it forward. The burly man actually staggered from her pull. Before he got over his surprise, Mu Yangling’s foot swept towards his knee. The burly man only sensed a sharp pain and felt that his leg must have been broken. Just as the thought flashed across his mind, he was already kneeling on the ground…

Mu Yangling then chopped the back of his neck with her left hand. Before the burly man could make a sound, he rolled his eyes and fainted.

These three actions took less than two seconds. Before the remaining five people could react, Mu Yangling had already turned around and kicked the soldier who had brought her here into a tree, rendering him unconscious…

Only then did the four burly men react. They shouted and cursed before surrounding her.

Mu Yangling’s eyes darkened slightly because of their scolding. As they were conversing in the Hu language just now, although she did not understand the last sentence, she still managed to make out the word “bastard”.

Knowing that she was facing the Hus, Mu Yangling did not show any mercy and fought the four of them head-on.

Mu Yangling was strong and had experience in fighting enemies. Coupled with the fact that she was small and agile, she easily defeated the four of them in less than 15 minutes.

Having had their limbs and bones dislodged by Mu Yangling, for a moment, the four of them could only look at Mu Yangling hatefully. One of them shouted loudly and incoherently. Mu Yangling instinctively felt that something was wrong and quickly went forward to dislocate their jaws. However, the other three stared at her with wide eyes as black blood flowed out of their mouths, their faces instantly turning black. They had actually committed suicide.

This time, Mu Yangling did not dare to be negligent. Although the two of them were still unconscious, she still dislocated their jaws and limbs. This caused the two of them to wake up from the pain.

The three of them looked at Mu Yangling, their eyes almost burning with anger. They never expected to suffer such a huge setback. Everything was clearly going according to the plan, so why didn’t the people who stayed in Mingshui County tell them that this Mu girl knew martial arts and possessed abnormal strength?

Seeing that the three of them were no longer a threat, Mu Yangling was in no mood to care about them. She searched the three of them, but there was nothing on them that could reveal their identities.

Frowning, Mu Yangling squatted in front of the burly man in the lead. She asked, “Are you Hus? Are you from the Jin Kingdom or West Xia? You can’t be from Tibet, right?”

That person glared at Mu Yangling angrily, his eyes burning with anger.

Mu Yangling narrowed her eyes slightly, but thinking that this was not the place to interrogate people, the most important thing now was to leave quickly. She did not know if they had any accomplices nearby.

Since they had kidnapped her here, there should be another carriage to receive her in order not to attract attention.

Mu Yangling looked around the forest before deciding to head southwest. After taking a few steps, she heard the sound of horse hooves. Her eyes turned sharp as she ran somewhere that the three of them could not see. After taking two heavy steps, she lightened her footsteps. She climbed up a tree quickly and lightly without making a sound. Just as she squatted on a branch, a dagger slid out of her hand. Looking in the direction of the sound of horse hooves, she heaved a sigh of relief when she saw Qi Haoran sitting on a horse.

She looked around and indeed saw a carriage parked in an empty space to the southwest.

Other than Qi Haoran, who had already arrived at the edge of the forest, there was nothing abnormal in her vision.

Mu Yangling placed her hand on the branch and was about to jump down when she suddenly changed her mind and hid behind the leaves.

Qi Haoran hurriedly ran into the forest with his men. When he saw the people lying on the ground and that Mu Yangling was nowhere to be seen, his eyes turned red. He stepped on one of those men and asked, “Where’s the little girl you tried to kidnap?”

That person looked at Qi Haoran with red eyes. Qi Haoran narrowed his eyes. “There’s poison in your mouth? Did Mu Yangling do this to your jaw?”

Qi Haoran looked around and ordered, “Search immediately. We must find Miss Mu and the people who kidnapped her.”
