Chapter 71
In the end, Chen Wu was not found before Kong Lingyi and the others set off. Shu Yun was a little worried. She didn't know what kind of accident he encountered in Hexi Village, or that Chen Wu was deliberately hiding from the men in black sent by Kong Lingyi.
, that’s why we didn’t bump into him.
However, in any case, there was no news about Chen Wu for the time being. The injured people in black also improved a lot under Shu Yun's treatment. So before setting off, Kong Lingyi arranged for a burly man named Ji.
Yang's man in black drove Shu Yun, and then urged the team of witch doctors to continue their journey down the mountain road.
The mountain road is not as narrow as Shu Yun imagined, and it is definitely more than enough for a carriage.
Ji Yang told Shu Yun that these mountain roads were actually dug out by bandits and bandits nearby in order to allow more merchants to pass by and get more oil and water. It's just that they
As a team walking here, they don't have to worry about these bandits. The only thing they need to worry about is that the guy named Ma Fangjiu will bring people to attack them again.
After hearing this, Shu Yun also curiously asked who this Ma Fangjiu was and why he attacked them.
However, Ji Yang shook his head vaguely and said only: "These are all fights between adults. Miss Shu, you'd better not be clear about it!"
Therefore, Shu Yun could only sit in the carriage fearfully, listening to the rolling wheels, and stayed in the carriage honestly.
The descent of the mountain was very fast, and it took almost no time for the group to reach a small town at the foot of the mountain. After stopping for a while, the convoy headed northwest.
After walking for a day, Shu Yun discovered that the number of people in their team had increased instead of decreasing.
"Brother Ji, why do I feel like there are more people in our team than before?"
Ji Yang glanced at the back of the motorcade, and while holding the car, he said to Shu Yun: "Because of what happened last time, your Excellency sent a letter back overnight, and asked Mu Gong to send another man over to prevent Ma Fangjiu from getting hurt.
Come and hurt the witch doctors again."
Mu Gong?!
Shu Yun glanced at the back of the motorcade with some doubts, and did not dare to ask any more questions. God knows what a mysterious process it was for their group to go to the northwest! It was enough to arrive safely and then leave.
I don’t know whether it was because of the new guards joining, or because the man named Ma Fangjiu finally felt happy after he succeeded in killing so many witch doctors last time. In short, Shu Yun and his party walked along.
The official road went all the way west, and after walking for half a month, nothing like that night happened again.
Before nightfall, the convoy entered a small mountain village near the water. Shu Yun was fortunate enough to be assigned to a family to rest and wash herself properly.
After soaking comfortably in the barrel for about half an hour, Shu Yun easily changed into clean clothes, sat in front of the door with a comfortable look on his face, looked at the stars in the sky and hummed happily.
"Miss Shu is in a good mood!" Kong Lingyi appeared beside Shu Yun at some unknown moment, and her sudden voice startled her.
"Why are Master Kong here?!" Shu Yun blinked and stood up nervously.
"Miss Shu, please sit down. I'm just here to discuss something with the girl!" Kong Lingyi's attitude softened, and his tone was no longer as serious and cold as usual. I don't know if it was because they were getting closer.
Northwest reasons.
"If there is anything you need my help with, Mr. Kong, please just tell me!" Shu Yun blinked, but it was straightforward.
"Our convoy will reach Yucheng in about seven days." Kong Lingyi stared at Shu Yun's eyes seriously, looking at her confused look, and then explained: "Our destination is in Yucheng.
In other words, if we work hard for another seven days, we can reach Yucheng."
"Huh, that's great!" Shu Yun couldn't help but become happy when he heard this, but his mind was still thinking about what Kong Lingyi just said about the discussion, so he quickly asked: "Then Master Kong wants to discuss with me
What to discuss?”
"Miss Shu, I'm afraid you will have to shorten this seven-day journey to two days with me." Kong Lingyi looked at Shu Yun's surprised look at her and continued: "I wonder if the girl can ride a horse? If not,
, then I can only arrange for someone to take you on your way!"
"Horse riding?! Mr. Kong, what do you mean, we won't follow the convoy?" Shu Yun had a vague premonition in his heart.
Kong Lingyi did not disappoint her, she nodded and said: "Yes, Miss Shu. We have to rush to Yucheng within two days! They can't wait!" Kong Lingyi looked at her seriously with a trace of worry in his eyes.
Shu Yuan said: "After arriving in Yucheng, Miss Shu, you can just go with a few witch doctors."
"In other words, are there other witch doctors who will set off with us tomorrow?" Shu Yun understood a lot after hearing this. After seeing Kong Lingyi nodding, he couldn't help but frown and said: "Everyone is riding a horse.
?”
"Travel lightly! Except for some necessities that you can carry, leave everything else in the convoy. They will arrive in Yucheng in seven days." Kong Lingyi looked at Shu Yun, looking at her troubled expression, and thought for a while before asking.
: "Miss Shu, is there any difficulty?"
"I don't know how to ride a horse!" Shu Yun held it in and said with some fear: "I heard that if you ride a horse for a long time, you can't even stand on the ground?!"
Kong Lingyi was stunned, and suddenly a smile appeared on his face: "It will be good for Miss Shu to ride more horses from now on. We will take you on the road tomorrow, so we don't have to worry about riding horses! As for the fear of leg pain...
....Then you can only think of a solution yourself, Miss Shu!"
"Me?!" Shu Yun pointed at himself with a surprised look on his face. Seeing Kong Lingyi nodding with a smile, he could only nod his head depressedly and began to make calculations in his mind.
The next day, when the first ray of light appeared in the sky, Kong Lingyi had already arranged for more than a dozen horses to be brought in, and they were lined up at the entrance of the village, snorting.
Shu Yun followed Ji Yang and stood at the corner of the village entrance with a small bundle on his back. He breathed a sigh of relief for no reason when he saw several witch doctors dressed in simple clothes and appearing with small bundles on their backs just like her.
"Everyone choose your own horse!" Kong Lingyi waited until everyone had arrived, then said to the seven witch doctors. After watching them nod and choose the horse, he looked at Shu Yun and said:
"Miss Shu, come here, I'll take you for a ride first!"
Shu Yun nodded, but did not think too much about embarrassing matters such as the separation between men and women. He ran to Kong Lingyi's side with his baggage on his back and watched Kong Lingyi get on his horse and look at him with a confused look on his face.
"Sit behind me!" Kong Lingyi tilted his head and glanced at Shu Yun, stretched out his hand and pulled her onto the horse with a strong force, and then said to her: "If you feel unstable or afraid,
