Chapter 101 The attack of the wolves at night (2)
Unexpectedly, Zhao Zimu who had been rushing forward suddenly stopped the horse. Ye Yiqiu stammered, “Master, master, what is wrong?”
Did she have a change of mind?
“Wait!”
As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Zimu rushed back.
“Mas…”
Ye Yiqiu looked dumbfounded in the direction of the disappearing figure whom he regarded as his master and suddenly felt a bit melancholy.
His master’s behavior was really unpredictable. It was hard for him to understand even if he had tried to figure it out. He indeed doesn’t have enough practice!
Zhao Zimu who was at the entrance of the last town at the border, “Have you seen a guy with red lips and fair face whose body was covered in foolishness and unruliness leave here? Which direction did he went to?”
The soldier at the door was that unlucky guy of that day, “Sir, what you said is quite right. That guy was indeed unruly and irrational. He and a general led a group of people and went into the grassland recklessly to search for Lord Qiansui. Are you looking for him?”
Seeing Zhao Zimu’s cold and handsome face, the small soldier thought that she came to find that guy who he found stubborn and troublesome. So, he told her with a smile on his face.
Zhao Zimu looked at that small soldier’s gloating face and asked with a cold face, “Are you sure?”
“I’m sure. That guy even caused me to suffer a beating at the hands of a general! If you want to teach him a lesson, you must also teach him for this little one. This little one will be very grateful!”
Zhao Zimu frowned. Then, with the small soldier’s horrified gaze, she raised her foot and kicked him mercilessly.
With a bang the little soldier rolled three or four meters away like a ball. The surrounding veterans looked at him with horror. The horror in their eyes had some sympathy.
How could this cheap-mouthed guy not learn his lesson?
After Zhao Zimu finished kicking, she immediately rushed in the direction she had just taken. Ye Yiqiu immediately rushed to his master after he saw her come back and called her respectfully.
Zhao Zimu nodded, looked once at him and motioned him to follow. Then, they went in another direction.
Ye Yiqiu, “…” Master, are you sure the direction is right. Also, you can tell me where you are going! Am I so unlikable? Ye Yiqiu thought frustratedly for a while and followed.
One day before, on the other side. On a spacious grassland, Chen Jing looked at the exhausted Ling Er whose eyes were still brimming with spirits and couldn’t refrain himself from saying, “If you are tired, take a break. You don’t have to work so hard. Looking at the current situation, your young master is likely to have left the grassland with Jiu Qiansui. You don’t have to be like this.”
While a trace of discomfort passed through his heart, Chen Jing still persuaded her.
Chen Jin who had always thought that he indulged her so much just because she was funny, gradually realized that it wasn’t that simple when he saw that her eyes was filled with another. However, he didn’t say anything because they didn’t belong to the same camp. Moreover, she had someone she liked.
He didn’t need to go closer and court a rebuff.
More than half a month has passed. Chen Jing also heard a lot of news while he took Ling Er around the grassland. They were lucky that Zhao Zimu attracted the attention of the Xiongnu when they wandered blindly on the grassland, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to live unharmed until now.
But even so, their food and water had run out. They must return to great Liang these two days, otherwise, even if the Xiongnu didn’t kill them, they would die because of lack of water and food.
Ling Er nodded. She agreed with his proposal because after knowing the news of Zhao Zimu’s departure, she no longer wanted to stay in this place. She wanted to go back as soon as possible to reunite with her miss.
The group of people walked to a hidden place, but they didn’t notice a few pairs of green eyes flashing behind them and disappeared when they stopped.
When everyone was resting and having good dreams at night, a sound of horror suddenly sounded in the dark silent night. All the people rushed out of the temporarily dwelling place that they had built. They watched the surrounding scenes vigilantly. This made panic suddenly appear in their eyes.
Chen Jing woke up as soon as he heard the sound. He immediately stood up and looked at the terrifying sight around him. He frowned vigorously.
Without even thinking about it, he rushed into a simple tent and shouted, “Ling Er, Zhao Ling! Quickly wake up!”
Chen Jing shook Ling Er, but he couldn’t wake up the sleeping person after a few shakes. He saw that the person who was sleeping was frowning and breathing quickly. Her face was flushed with a strange redness which looked very wrong.
Chen Jing’s heart skipped a beat and immediately reached out a hand to her forehead. As soon as he touched, Chen Jing was taken aback by the temperature on Ling Er’s delicate forehead. He knew that the situation was far from encouraging. He quickly lifted the simple clothes covering her body and carried her out.
Chen Jing’s close soldier immediately ran to him and said in a worried tone, “General!”
Chen Jing understood his worries. He looked at the more than a hundred wolves surrounding them. Now, it was the latter half of the night. They fire was about to burn out. Hence, these wolves had the courage to surround them at this time.
After taking a deep breath, Chen Jing pulled out his saber on his waist and said coldly, “Everyone, listen to the order and prepare for the fight!”
