Because Juqingma was never allowed to be ridden, the Song family did not prepare a saddle.

Moreover, they are pulling a cart now, and apart from the horse's reins, there is nothing on their backs.

Song Zhenping couldn't ride a horse, so it was impossible for him to harness a carriage to a horse.

Seeing that Han Ming was being held back by the men in black, and that only two of the Wan family's employees were still able to fight back, Song Liyun became anxious.

She grabbed Song Zhenping's leg and helped him onto the horse: "No matter what, you run first, as far as you can. I'll come find you whenever I have time."

"I……!"

Song Zhenping knew the situation was urgent, so he struggled to climb onto the horse's back.

Just then, Juqingma suddenly lay down, and Song Zhenping lost his balance and pounced on it.

"What happened?"

Song Liyun was shocked. She thought Ju Qingma had been assassinated and quickly went to pull Song Zhenping away.

But then Juqingma suddenly reared up, startling Song Zhenping, who was already on its back, so he grabbed the horse's neck.

The horse carried Song Zhenping onto the main road.

When Qin Sanye saw someone trying to escape, he immediately abandoned Steward Wan and rushed in front of the horse, wielding a stick and striking the horse's head.

Under normal circumstances, a horse will definitely avoid or retreat when attacked head-on.

But Juqingma is no ordinary horse.

With a long neigh, it didn't retreat but advanced, standing upright with its two front hooves raised higher than Qin Sanye's head, kicking wildly like drumming.

Seeing the horse's hoof, as big as a small basin, smashing towards his face, Qin Sanye was so frightened that he scrambled back ten feet to avoid the blow.

The two people following closely behind him were not so lucky. As soon as Juqing's horse landed, it charged towards them.

The men and horses separated at the first contact.

With a loud thud, the two were sent flying through the air with screams, crashing heavily to the ground and never getting up again.

The two men were violently struck by the horse; they would either die or suffer broken bones and sprains.

Song Zhenping was already so frightened that he closed his eyes tightly, clung to the horse's neck and didn't move, letting the chrysanthemum horse carry him away.

After that, Song Liyun stammered out only two words: "You...you're awesome!"

The scene left Song Liyun stunned, and even the fighters stopped and stared in disbelief.

Is this still a horse pulling a cart?

Taking advantage of the moment, Han Ming took off his outer garment, revealing an exquisite suit of armor, dropped the steel pipe, and drew the Swallow Feather Blade from his waist.

This is a set of regular military equipment used by the Zhenbei Army.

"You are..." Master Qin gathered his men and looked at Han Ming with surprise.

He received information from Old Master Hong that Wan Chun's fur shop was secretly buying and selling furs, which he assumed was a private transaction with the Di people. He followed them once and found his way here.

Today, we're trying to find a pretext to seize both people and goods. How did we get in touch with the Zhenbei Army?

Song Liyun did not want to answer Qin Sanye's question.

Now that she had revealed her hand, Song Liyun had no intention of letting these people go. In any case, Steward Wan wouldn't dare to expose his whereabouts and wanted to kill them to silence them.

Han Ming had spent a lot of time practicing swordsmanship with the garrison personnel, and with a diet rich in meat, he was physically strong and no longer the thief who had dug up the treasure forest. Wearing a suit of armor, he looked even more imposing.

Upon his arrival, the two remaining members of the Wan family who still had fighting strength quickly moved closer.

The three of them joined forces to fight against the five men in black.

Han Ming, clad in armor, brandished a long sword, slashing and hacking, with the assistance of two Wan Gu Ji long staffs on either side, instantly turning the tide of the battle.

The five men in black were utterly routed, and their defeat was inevitable.

Things have developed in a way that is no longer in the pattern that Master Qin predicted.

Qin He knew that the Wan family had five people in one carriage, so to be on the safe side, he brought seven people with him in addition to two drivers.

In this way, even if the seller has someone to deliver the goods, his manpower can handle it.

As he initially thought, it was only a matter of time before the Wan family conceded defeat. However, he never expected that the seller would come out with a single horse and defeat both of his men. The two coachmen haven't even made a sound since.

Han Ming's armor also clearly showed his identity.

To be able to disregard other people's opinions so completely means only one thing: you're doomed!

Qin He knew his fate was sealed.

His eyes were filled with a crazed ruthlessness as he stared intently at the two people beside him.

At this moment, Song Liyun was helping Wan Liangjin towards the small house.

"Manager Wan, how are you feeling?"

Manager Wan had just been slashed on the arm by Qin He's knife, and was bleeding quite a bit. He was already exhausted.

Song Liyun took out a cloth and tied it around the upper part of the wound to temporarily stop the bleeding. The wound still needed to be cleaned and bandaged immediately.

Manager Wan, enduring the pain, said, "I feel alright. I've dragged you down this time, but I'll have my family compensate you later."

Song Liyun shook her head, looked at Han Ming and the others, and frowned, saying, "Let's not talk about that for now. Steward, what should we do with these people?"

A ruthless glint flashed in Manager Wan's eyes: "We can't expose our identities... Be careful!" Before he finished speaking, he suddenly pushed Song Liyun away.

At the same time, Song Liyun also sensed the wind coming from behind her. It was too late to defend herself, so she took advantage of the force of the push from Steward Wan to roll over and at the same time drew out her short knife and stun gun.

Qin He, who had stealthily crept over, thrust his short knife at Song Liyun's back, but missed with a push from Steward Wan.

Song Liyun rolled to the side, and Qin He was left with only Wan Liangjin sitting slumped against the wall.

Looking at Qin He's knife, Steward Wan's face was filled with deep fear and hatred.

He was a merchant who only cared about making money, wanting to earn money to send back to his wife, children, and mother.

He usually tries to keep a low profile and doesn't want to stand out, but he never expected to fall into the eyes of these thugs disguised as petty criminals.

Qin He ignored Song Liyun, who had rolled to the side, and stared at Wan Liangjin, saying fiercely, "Hand over the silver and tell me where your treasury is?"

He didn't kill Manager Wan just now because he was interrogating him about the source of the goods and the warehouse.

Harvesting this much is clearly not enough for him; he wants to seize even more.

Although Steward Wan was terrified, those were family fortunes and he couldn't just reveal them. He trembled and remained silent. Suddenly, his gaze went blank as he looked behind Qin He.

Song Liyun had already approached silently.

Holding a short black stick, he pressed it against Qin He's back. With a sharp "snap," Qin He instantly convulsed and collapsed to the ground, his limbs twitching wildly, excrement and urine flowing freely, and he stopped breathing.

Song Liyun put the short stick back into her sleeve, made a silencing gesture to the horrified Steward Wan, and said, "Steward Wan, this is my only protective treasure, called Lightning Strike Wood. It can only be used once more, so no one else can know about it."

Wan Liangjin swallowed hard. He had investigated Song Liyun and knew that Min Gande's death was suspicious.

Everyone said that Min Gande was killed by lightning, but seeing it with my own eyes, I know it's true.

The Qin He in front of us also died from being struck by lightning.

So this is the treasure it is. What a pity, it can only be used once more.

"Alright, I swear on ten thousand taels of gold that I will keep this a secret!"

Manager Wan was filled with gratitude. This kind of treasure was rare, and each use was a lifesaver. He had used it once.

At this point, he also began to re-evaluate Song Liyun.
