They did not travel the whole day, but played and had fun along the way. In the afternoon, they stayed at a store. Logically speaking, Jiaozi should have walked this short distance.

After hearing what Yelu Changchen said, everyone felt that something was not right. It was indeed too slow.

"Then what should we do? Should we go back and take a look? But we don't know where they are now. They should take the official road."ωωw.cascoo.net

Lu Daxin asked for everyone's opinions. There were too many small roads along the way. It would indeed be faster to take the small roads, but the official road would be safer. The bandits here were still quite powerful, but they didn't appear often. They shouldn't be so unlucky!

"Then we can only go back and take a look. Let's not talk about the goods first. Lu Baixue is still with them. Since she was sent by the Queen Mother, she must return unscathed."

Lu Wan also joined in the conversation. After hearing what Lu Wan said, Shen Yan nodded. So everyone did not take the luggage but carried the valuables with them, and rode back on their horses.

The journey was very smooth. Although it was dark, they were not walking blindly because they had the night pearls in their hands.

However, they did not see Lu Baixue even after walking halfway back from the inn. In their hearts, Chen Yan and the others could not help but wonder, could it be that Lu Baixue and the others were not taking the official road?

If you take the small road, there is a high possibility that you will encounter bandits. The bandits here are still very powerful, and the imperial court has sent troops to encircle and suppress them a long time ago, but without success.

I heard that a bandit leader here was originally a general serving in the palace. Later, for some unknown reason, he committed a crime and was sentenced to death.

The general was a man of great martial arts skills. He escaped from the pursuit of the soldiers and fled to such a place. In just a few days, he became the king of the mountain. His ordinary soldiers, who were well-versed in martial arts, were sent to pursue him, but they were unsuccessful.

So they tacitly allowed him to do good deeds here.

If Lu Baixue and the others were really taken away by this man, they would have to spend a lot of time to resolve this matter.

Chen Yan frowned tightly. There were too many small roads leading to the county town, and they were not sure which road to take.

At this time, Shen Yan saw something on the road with his sharp eyes. Shen Yan turned over and got off the horse to pick up the thing.

Shen Yan recognized at a glance which object he picked up from the ground was Lu Baixue's handkerchief.

"It seems that they did walk along the official road. This is a handkerchief of Lu Baixue. I have seen it before. She always has a plum blossom embroidered on her handkerchief."

Chen Yan described the characteristics of Lu Baixue's handkerchief very familiarly. Seeing her acting so nonchalant, Lu Wan was so jealous that she was about to explode.

Lu Daxin and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. Chen Yan was indeed too much of a straight man. What was so special about him talking about other girls in front of the girl he liked? It's really a bit too much.
