She glanced at the road ahead, making sure the horse wasn't veering off course, and then quickly switched the floating panel in front of her to the shop page.

Opening the weapons section, Jiang Wanwan spent a fortune to buy an AK and several grenades, storing them in a storage cabinet so that she could easily take out the guns and ammunition to fight the enemy when she actually clashed with the men in black or the bandits.

With a few more weapons added to the storage cabinet, she felt much more at ease. Humming a little tune, she slowly urged her horse towards the county town.

As Jiang Wanwan passed through a mountain hollow, she suddenly felt a rumbling sound coming from the ground.

The sound was all too familiar; it was remarkably similar to the vibrations made when the bandits rode their horses into Anhuai County that night.

Without much thought, Jiang Wanwan quickly drove the carriage onto a weed-covered path. She then picked up some withered grass and twigs to cover the carriage. Next, she jumped off the carriage and crouched down to hide in another patch of weeds.

The sound grew closer, and soon Jiang Wanwan saw a group of people on horseback galloping away. Leading them was none other than the one-eyed man she had seen that night, the leader of Black Wind Stronghold.

One-Eyed Dragon led a dozen or so bandits, all of whom rode horses. Except for One-Eyed Dragon's horse, which was unloaded, the other bandits' horses each carried a large sack.

The burlap sack was bulging, and I didn't know what was inside, but it looked rather heavy.

Jiang Wanwan wanted to follow them to see what One-Eyed Dragon and his gang were doing, but she was worried about being discovered by the bandits. After thinking it over, she bought a pair of binoculars from the mall to spy on One-Eyed Dragon and his gang.

Through the binoculars, one could see that One-Eyed Dragon and his dozen or so bandits crossed a 400-500 meter stretch of official road, then rode their horses onto a mountain path. In no time, One-Eyed Dragon and his gang disappeared.

Jiang Wanwan waited for a long time until she heard no more unusual noises before crawling out of the bushes.

After freeing the carriage, she led it back to the main road. As she looked down, she noticed some rice grains scattered on the muddy road.

Jiang Wanwan took a few more steps forward and found some rice grains on the ground.

In an instant, a guess formed in her mind. To verify this guess, she simply drove the carriage forward to investigate, until the rice fields abruptly stopped at the section of the mountain road where the bandits had turned onto.

Therefore, it is obvious that these rice grains were left behind by the one-eyed man and his gang.

In other words, the dozen or so sacks that the bandits were carrying were actually filled with rice!

She squinted at the mountain road; Black Wind Village was likely accessible via this road.

According to the waiter, only those who were captured by Black Wind Stronghold might know its location; no one else knows.

Unexpectedly, this trip out of town to purchase fish maw yielded a pleasant surprise.

Knowing that she was currently all alone, she dared not act rashly, much less stay here, lest she alert the bandits and attract their attention.

So she decided to go back to the county town first, and then tell Qi Zhao about it later, so that the two of them could discuss it slowly.

After figuring it out, Jiang Wanwan flicked the reins, and the horse, in pain, took off galloping forward at full speed.

Before long, she arrived safely at the entrance of Anhuai County.

After paying the city entrance fee, Jiang Wanwan drove the carriage towards the inn where she was staying.
