Chapter 21: A Perfect Match (Part 2)

  Everyone was shocked at once, and Zong Xiong jumped out and was about to make a scene on the spot!

  Mongolian warriors brought Chaltun's words and said: "Don't talk nonsense! Zhe Yan Chong is a hero, how can he run away!"

  His status and prestige were not very high, but he came from afar as a guest, so he sat in the seat of honor.

  Zong Ganda said: "If you didn't run away, why haven't we seen anyone until now?"

  Zhao Guan thought that if something happened in the Han Department, all the Hans here would be unlucky. He hastily said: "It must have been an unexpected event."

  Wanyan Hu's face turned red with anger, and he tore off his hat, saying: "Unexpected? What unexpected?"

  Zhao Guan didn't know how to respond, and Ouyang Yi forced a smile: "Big brother indeed has something going on, but it's absolutely not running away. Today is his big happy day, and he's not going into battle, so why would he run away?"

  Zong Gan snorted and said: "Our clansmen saw Zhe Yan rush towards the northeast direction, at that time he was alone with his horse, and wasn't being held captive by anyone. If it's not escaping, what is it?"

  The hall was suddenly in an uproar again. Di Yu thought to himself, "These Jurchen people are really straightforward! If this were a big household in the Central Plains, they would probably have several family elders discuss and resolve it privately, who would make such a public fuss? This will only make things harder to settle!"

  Wanyan Hu asked Zong Gan: "Brother Woben, you said that Zhe Yan Chong went to the northeast?" Woben was Zong Gan's Jurchen name.

  Zong Ganda: "Yes."

  Wanyan Hu bowed his head and thought for a moment, then took out the hard bow with the word "Tiger" engraved on it from the dowry and said: "I'll go after him."

  "Wait here, sister, I'll go!"

  "No!" Wanyan Hu said: "I'll go after him myself! If he's being held against his will, I'll rescue him with my own hands. If he's betrayed me... I'll kill him with this bow!"

  Di Yu felt a chill in his heart, but Wanyan Hu had already turned and left.

  Aguo's other son, Zong Wang, asked his father: "What should we do?"

  "Take some men and follow him," Ah Gu said to Dao.

  Muneyoshi and Munetaka left, then Munemori asked Uyasu, "Uncle, shall we get rid of these Chinese..."

  Agu Da raised his hand and stopped him, saying: "The situation is unclear, don't act rashly."

  The woman of the country really came to persuade him, and she whispered a few words in her son Zonghan's ear. Zonghan took orders and left.

  Ouyang Shi glanced over and signaled to his subordinate Liu Qi to sneak out and gather information. Soon, Liu Qi returned and whispered: "It's not good, many Jurchen people are feeding horses outside the village. On the surface, they're feeding horses, but in fact, they've already blocked all the exits of the entire village."

  Ouyang regretted it in his heart: "If I had known that Lao Da was so persistent, I shouldn't have come up with this bad idea!"

  The Han family village was on high alert, and Zong Gan and Zong Xiong were also extremely anxious. It turned out that they had lost sight of Wanyan Hu not long after chasing him.

  Wanyan Hu chased after her on horseback, but the vast expanse of the northern wilderness stretched out endlessly before him. Where was Zhe Yan Chong's shadow? As the sky grew darker, he finally lost his way even to himself. He let his horse wander aimlessly while he became increasingly despondent. The night grew blacker and blacker, until in the distance he saw a glimmer of light on the eastern horizon, so he spurred his horse towards it.

  The fire was burning by a small river, and someone on the riverbank was fetching cold water to drink. Hearing the sound of horseshoes, he looked up and saw two people face each other in surprise: if it wasn't Zhe Yan Chong, who could it be?

  Wanyan Hu's heart was filled with mixed emotions, both excitement and resentment. Suddenly, he grabbed an arrow and aimed it at Zhe Yan Chong, saying: "Zhe Yan Chong! Why didn't you come to the wedding!"

  Zhe Yan Chong hesitated for a moment, and the cold water that had reached his lips was not drunk. He also ignored Wanyan Hu's sharp arrow aimed at him, walked to the bonfire and said: "That marriage is not my idea, it's my brother's idea. They want the Han people to live better among the Jurchen people, so they persuaded me to marry you." His face was red in the firelight, as if he had a fever.

  Wanyan Hu didn't notice this and asked: "You said the marriage was someone else's idea, what about you? Are you willing or not?"

  "I don't want to."

  Wanyan Hu's whole body was trembling with rage, and he couldn't even hold his bow and arrow steadily, but what was more was heartbreak.

  "Anyway, I won't marry you. I don't like you at all."

  Wanyan Hu shouted: "Enough! Enough! I don't want to listen anymore!"

  "Whatever the case, this time we are in the wrong. You can kill us if you want to. However, can I ask one thing of you?"

  "What's going on?"

  "Kill me if you must," Zhang Liao said, "but spare my brothers."

  Wanyan Hu's body shook violently, and she actually fell off her horse. Zhe Yan Chong was shocked and rushed over to help her up. Wanyan Hu pushed him away, saying: "Get lost! Don't touch me!" She flung the tiger-shaped bow at Zhe Yan Chong's face, saying: "Return it to you!"

  Zhe Yan Cong held the bow in a daze and said: "You..."

  Wanyan's eyes were filled with tears, but he stubbornly said: "Don't worry! I won't kill you. I'll go ask Father and Uncle to let your brother go."

  Zhe Yan was taken aback and asked: "Why did you do this?"

  Wanyan Hu said: "The man I, Wanyan Hu, want to marry must like me, love me, and treat me well. Otherwise, no matter how heroic or good he is, I won't be interested! You go back and take your people away! Once you leave our territory, I'll lead my men to come and kill you!"

  As she turned to leave, Zhēi Yàn grabbed her and said: "Wait."

  Wanyan Hu struggled to break free, and the two of them rolled into a ball. At that time, there was still a period of time before winter arrived, and the weather had cooled down for a while before turning hot again - it was the last warm spell of the year. Both of their bodies were dressed in not many clothes, and Zhe Yan Chu touched Wanyan Hu's skin, thinking to himself: "Her skin is indeed very smooth." A flame ignited below his abdomen, and his wild nature burst forth.

  Wanyan Hu is not a weak woman, she fights back with all her might, using her fists instead of her fingernails! But the more fiercely she resists, the more energetic Zhao Yan becomes. The two of them are entangled, rolling around, biting and scratching each other. Wanyan Hu's clothes are finally torn to shreds by Zhao Yan. Wanyan Hu cries out: "You don't like me, why are you tearing my clothes?"

  "Zhe Yan Chong shouted: 'I suddenly like you again, will you or won't you!'"

  Wanyan Hu shouted: "I don't want you to like me for your brother's sake!"

  Zhe Yan Chong shouted: "I'm going up on you now, no matter what!"

  The two finally rolled together naked, Zhao Yan Chong was fierce and violent, while Wanyan Hu Ke wasn't weak either. At first it was a fight, then it turned into rape, but soon it became wild sex, only calming down at dawn.

  Wanyan Hudao said: "What are you doing, forcing me?"

  Zhe Yan Chong said: "Impulsive." He asked again: "Why did you let me rape?"

  Wanyan Hudao said: "I don't know."

  The two of them slept together for a whole morning, and Zhe Yan Chong woke up to see Wanyan Hu washing by the river. When she saw that Zhe Yan Chong had woken up, she said: "You come over and wash too."

  "Your clothes are torn like this, how will you go back and see people later?"

  Wanyan Hudao said: "What business is it of yours?"

  "Of course it's related to me, you're not even wearing enough clothes to cover your body, and it's me who's losing face."

  Wanyan Hu's smile made Zhe Yan Chong stunned, and he thought: "Ouyang was right, she is actually quite good-looking."

  "What are you looking at?"

  "Zhou Yan suddenly said: 'I suddenly think you look pretty good.'"

  "Suddenly? What about before?"

  "Before?" Zhēi Yàn rushed to say: "I used to think you were very ugly, otherwise why would I run away from the marriage?"

  Wanyan Hu was furious and rushed up to pin Zhao Yan down and beat him, both of them were naked, accidentally turning the fight into a wild coupling.

  "Hey, what's wrong with you? Anyway, I don't think you look bad now."
