Ming Dynasty: I, Zhu Yunwen, started by resurrecting my grandmother.

Zhu Yunwen noticed that this old hag had a rather strange temper and didn't play by the rules at all.

Seeing that he remained silent, the old hag became even angrier: "First you shot my Fu Bao with an arrow, and now you call me old. Who are you?"

"My name is Zhu Yuntong." Zhu Yuntong bowed from his horse.

The old hag sized Zhu Yunwen up again: "You're also surnamed Zhu? Then who is your father?"

"My father was the late Crown Prince Yiwen."

"You are Zhu Biao's son?" The old hag was quite surprised.

"Exactly."

"Then why don't you come and die?"

Zhu Yunwen thought to himself, "Do I deserve to die for this?"

It seems that this old hag is not only ugly, but also vicious.

Just as Zhu Yunwen was about to urge his horse forward to fight that old witch, Zhu Gaochi stopped him: "This foolish brother will deal with her!"

Zhu Gaochi was thinking, firstly, that Zhu Yunwen had just saved him, and secondly, that the other party was an old woman, so what could she possibly be capable of?

He could take this opportunity to show off and save face.

Zhu Yunwen thought to himself that this was a good thing, as it would be a good opportunity to see what that old witch was capable of.

The old hag roared, "I didn't want to kill you, but you've come here to die!"

The two of them didn't have much to say to each other, and they started fighting.

Zhu Gaochi wielded a large sword. He originally thought that his opponent was old and not very strong or capable, but once the two of them started fighting, he realized that he was wrong.

The old woman wielded a black whip, about two zhang long, and she used it with incredible skill.

When it is soft, it resembles a silver snake;

When you call it hard, it's like a steel gun.

The whip whistled in the wind, how could Zhu Gaochi possibly get close to her?

Before the two had even exchanged five blows, the long whip suddenly became entangled with the broadsword. The old hag pulled back with all her might, and the broadsword in Zhu Gaochi's hand was snatched away.

Zhu Gaochi, now without his weapon, immediately panicked.

He turned around and shot an arrow at the old witch, but the old witch was quick-witted and lowered her head, and the arrow flew past her.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Gaochi nocked another arrow, but this time, due to excessive force, he broke the bowstring.

Zhu Gaochi was greatly alarmed.

The old hag was overjoyed at the sight: "You fatso, where do you think you're going?"

Another whip lashed out, striking Zhu Gaochi's back.

The long whip was about to strike Zhu Gaochi; if it did, his bones would be broken and his tendons would be torn.

Zhu Gaochi closed his eyes, waiting to be beaten.

In his ear, he heard a "snap" sound, and the long whip was blocked by a long spear.

Zhu Yunwen wasn't particularly skilled in martial arts, but at this moment, he was going all out.

When Zhu Gaochi opened his eyes, he saw that it was Zhu Yunwen who had saved him again.

The old hag sneered, "You brat, you've finally made your move."

Zhu Yunwen said to Zhu Gaochi, "Brother, step aside and I'll deal with her."

"Then be careful."

"The materials are fine too!"

"It doesn't matter? Today I'll show you what I'm capable of." The old hag said, lashing her whip at Zhu Yunwen's face again.

The two then began to fight.

After the numbers are combined,

Zhu Yunwen thought to himself, "How can this old witch be so strong? We're no match for her. It seems we're both doomed today. I should have known better than to come here. This is such a bad deal."

However, there is no medicine for regret in this world.

The soldiers behind the old hag were cheering her on, their menacing expressions quite frightening.

The old witch also became interested, and her long whip flew up and down around Zhu Yunwen's front and back.

The old hag lashed out at Zhu Yuntong's head with her whip again. Seeing that he could not dodge, Zhu Yuntong, in desperation, threw the spear in his hand at the old hag.

This was a move the old witch hadn't anticipated.

She quickly dodged to the side, avoiding the spear.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Yunwen grabbed the tip of the whip.

"You brat, let go!"

"I won't let go!"

The two were vying for each other's attention, each trying to pull the other over.

At this moment, Zhu Yunwen pulled out the Seven Star Sword from his waist and swung it several times, cutting the long whip into several pieces.

"You ruined my long whip, you have to pay for it!" The old witch was furious when she saw that her long whip had been turned into a short whip.

"Brother, what are you standing there for? Run!" Zhu Yunwen shouted at Zhu Gaochi.

Zhu Gaochi spurred his horse and rode away, faster than a rabbit.

Just as Zhu Yunwen was about to flee, the old witch took out a handkerchief from her bosom, shook it in the air, and a strange fragrance wafted out.

Zhu Yunwen smelled the fragrance, and that was it. He immediately fainted and fell off his horse.

The old hag let out a strange laugh and ordered her soldiers, "Tie her up!"

Several soldiers rushed over and tied Zhu Yunwen up.

The old hag gave the order: "Chase after him! You must capture Zhu Gaochi!"

"promise!"

Everyone agreed in unison.

They spurred their warhorses and gave chase.

At this moment, Zhu Gaochi could no longer care about Zhu Yunwen; his broadsword was gone, and his bow was broken.

They were in a hurry, like dogs that had lost their homes, or like fish that had escaped the net; they simply urged their horses onward toward Beiping.

He ran for ten miles and was about to be caught when a group of about five hundred people suddenly appeared in front of him.

The banner had a large character "常" written on it.

The general under the flag was Chang Yuchun, and beside Chang Yuchun was a beautiful girl. Who else could it be but Zhao Ning'er?

It turned out that Zhu Yunwen was worried that Zhao Ning'er would be in danger if she followed him into Beiping City, so he arranged for Zhao Ning'er to be with Chang Yuchun.

When Zhao Ning'er saw that Zhu Yunwen had not returned the day after entering Beiping City, she was worried. So she inquired around and someone told her that in the morning, they saw two horses running in the north direction.

After Zhao Ning'er inquired about the other party's appearance, she guessed that it was most likely Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Yunwen.

Zhao Ning'er thought to herself, "Zhu Yuntong, you're really bold. You're in a den of dragons and tigers right now, and you still have the mind to play around."

So she discussed it with Chang Yuchun.

Chang Yuchun was also worried that Zhu Yunwen might be in danger, so he led his 500 elite soldiers over.

Zhu Gaochi had seen Chang Yuchun's portrait before, and thus recognized him.

Of course, he also knew Zhao Ning'er.

"General Chang, Miss Zhao, the Northern Yuan army is catching up! Please save me!"

Zhao Ning'er then asked, "Where is Zhu Yunwen?"

"He was captured by that old hag behind him."

"What?"

Hearing this, Chang Yuchun and Zhao Ning'er were both surprised and worried.

Zhao Ning'er shouted, "Zhu Gaochi, you hide behind us, we'll hold off the Yuan soldiers for you!"

Zhu Gaochi thought to himself, "Finally, I can catch my breath."

A moment later, the old hag arrived with her cavalry.

The two armies faced each other, lined up in a row.

Zhao Ning'er, riding on horseback, saw Zhu Yunwen lying on the back of a horse, seemingly unconscious.

With her left hand on her hip and her right pointing at the old hag, she cried out, "You old witch, release Zhu Yunwen now, or I'll spare your life! If you hesitate, it will be too late!"

The old hag was in no hurry and first carefully examined Zhao Ning'er.

Then, she chuckled coldly, "Who are you? You're so pretty!"

"If you want to know who I am, listen carefully. This lady is Zhao Ning'er." Zhao Ning'er's voice was loud and clear.

The old hag was also somewhat surprised: "Are you perhaps the daughter of Zhao Sili, the military commander?"

"You know that much is good!"

"So what is your relationship with Zhu Yunwen?"

"I am his fiancée." Zhao Ning'er raised her chin.

To everyone's surprise, the old hag trembled slightly upon hearing this, and her eyes flashed with cold light: "So, you're doomed!"

As the old hag finished speaking, she brandished Zhu Gaochi's large knife and charged straight at Zhao Ning'er.

He slashed at Zhao Ning'er's shoulder.

Zhao Ning'er, who knew no martial arts, was taken aback by the ferocity of her opponent!

She was so frightened that her face turned pale.

Just then, a loud clang was heard in my ears, as two weapons collided.

Chang Yuchun urged his horse forward and used his eighteen-foot steel spear to deflect the old witch's large knife.

With just one exchange, the old hag's large knife was knocked away.

The old hag was greatly surprised and asked, "Who comes here?"

"Chang Yuchun!" Chang Yuchun's voice boomed like thunder.

"You're talking nonsense. Chang Yuchun has been dead for a long time. You just think his name is impressive, so you're using it to intimidate people, right?"

Chang Yuchun stroked his beard and laughed heartily: "Do you think I need to impersonate myself?"

The old hag was half-believing and half-doubting, and asked her men, "Does anyone here know Chang Yuchun? Come here and take a closer look."

At this moment, an old soldier came over and looked at Chang Yuchun very carefully, then whispered, "Reporting to the princess, this person is indeed Chang Yuchun."

Are you sure you're not seeing things?

"I'm sure."

At this moment, the old witch shouted at the one-horned monster, "Fu Bao, bite him!"

Upon receiving its master's command, the monster let out a loud "roar," a high-pitched and resonant sound!

Many horses at the scene were startled.

The same was true of the horse Zhao Ning'er was riding; upon seeing the unicorn's ferocious and disgusting appearance, the horse immediately ran away in fright.

"Grandfather, please save me!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Chang Yuchun immediately stretched out his arm and rescued Zhao Ning'er from the horse.

Then look at the unicorn, it spread its four hooves and headed straight for Chang Yuchun.

Chang Yuchun dared not be careless. He hung his spear on the Victory Hook, then pulled out the bamboo-jointed steel whip from his waist and lashed it at the unicorn's back.

"Snapped!"

The force of that whip strike was so solid it was indescribable.

The unicorn, in unbearable pain, turned back and ran away.

Seeing how incredibly powerful Chang Yuchun was, the old witch gave a whistle and led all her cavalrymen in retreat.

Zhao Ning'er quickly said to Chang Yuchun, "They're trying to escape. We must rescue Yunhuo! Go after them!"

Upon hearing this, Chang Yuchun shouted, "Don't run away, leave my grandson here!"

However, because they were unfamiliar with the terrain, after chasing for a while, the other party managed to slip away from Chang Yuchun and his group by taking a few turns.

Zhao Ning'er was so anxious that she stomped her feet, but there was nothing she could do.

night.

Zhu Yunwen didn't know how long he had slept before slowly waking up.

He felt only hunger in his stomach and dizziness.

His arms were still bound.

He looked around and found that he was in a large tent, which was decorated very luxuriously.

Moreover, strangely enough, it seemed to be a woman's residence, as it was filled with a fragrant aroma.

Two maids, who looked like servants, stood on either side of him, holding fans and shooing away mosquitoes.

Zhu Yunwen then asked, "Who are you two?"

One of the girls smiled and said, "My name is Alan, and her name is Chana. We're here specifically to serve you."

"Are you Mongolian girls?" Zhu Yunwen wondered.

"Yes, Your Highness," Allen replied.

"Prince consort? Who is a prince consort?"

"Isn't that you? Aren't you about to marry the princess?"

"What? I'm marrying the princess?"

Zhu Yunwen was completely baffled.

At that moment, the curtain was lifted, and a person slipped in from outside—it was the old witch.

The old hag waved her hand, and the two maids withdrew.

Zhu Yunwen noticed that the old hag had no expression on her face, and when viewed by the light, she resembled a skeleton.

He couldn't imagine how there could be such an ugly person in the world.

The old hag had bright, lively eyes. She looked at Zhu Yunwen and let out a strange laugh: "You brat, isn't the aroma of this old woman's 'Thousand-Mile Fragrance' quite good?"

"You only know how to win by using underhanded methods, what kind of hero are you?" Zhu Yunwen was furious.

The old hag let out another strange laugh; her voice was so awful, it was indescribable.

"I'm not some kind of hero. As long as I can beat you, that's good skill."

"But that fatso, luckily he ran fast, otherwise I would have caught both of you."

When Zhu Yunwen heard that Zhu Gaochi had already fled, he felt relieved.

"It's not that I, this old woman, am stirring up trouble. You saved Zhu Gaochi, but he abandoned you and ran away alone. Is this how an elder brother should act?"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yunwen felt a pang of sadness, thinking to himself that Zhu Gaochi was truly despicable, only caring about his own escape and not caring about his own life or death.

However, on the other hand, even if he wanted to intervene, there was nothing he could do.

"I'll ask you again, is Zhao Ning'er your fiancée?" The old hag gently stroked her hair. To be honest, her hair was very beautiful, jet black and shiny, smooth and lustrous, without a single gray hair.

"What, you saw Zhao Ning'er?" Zhu Yunwen immediately became nervous, because he knew the old witch's methods; she could use any trick.

"Yes, she looks like an angel."

"What did you do to her?"

"Why are you so worried about her?" the old hag asked deliberately.

"What exactly did you do to her? Tell me already!" Zhu Yunwen's heart was in her throat.

"I originally intended to end her life with one blow, but unexpectedly, Chang Yuchun appeared and saved her."

"You vicious woman, what grudge does she hold against you that you would harm a weak woman like this?" Zhu Yunwen wanted to bite her.

"How can I let her compete with me for a man? So, I have no choice but to destroy her!" The old hag said, her eyes flashing with resentment.

"Stop! What do you mean by that?"
