Yin Le didn't have much stuff. He just took out an old cloth bundle and put a change of clothes in it, and that was it.
Afraid that her face would scare people, she put on a bamboo hat and let her bangs down to cover the injured left side of her face with her hair.
He filled a bamboo tube with water, and when everything was ready, he locked the door and followed Qin Yao out.
Traveling during the day was much easier than walking at night last night, and it was the way down the mountain. In less than an hour, the two arrived at the pass of Jiaya Mountain.
After crossing the mountain pass, the view suddenly opens up and the farmland of Jiaya Village comes into view. The rice seeds that have just been sown have sprouted and grown tall, and the lush and green fields are pleasing to the eye.
Yin Le took a deep breath of the fresh air and suddenly realized that the sun was particularly bright today.
She didn't know how long it had been since she felt so relaxed. Now, as long as she thought that the source of evil, Lady Pan, would get the punishment she deserved, she felt that there was still hope for the future.
"Wait here for a moment. I'll go get the horse."
The two came to a small thatched cottage. Qin Yao motioned Yin Le to wait outside the door while she went in to get the horse.
Yin Le nodded and stood there waiting obediently.
Qin Yao entered the fenced garden. There was no one in the house. They might have gone to the fields to work on the farm.
Fortunately, Old Huang was tied to a tree trunk behind the house. Qin Yao untied the horse and led it out. After a while, she passed by the field and said goodbye to him.
"Come on up." Qin Yao jumped onto the horse, patted the empty space behind her, and extended her hand to Yin Le.
Yin Le was a little excited and a little flustered, "Sister Qin, I've never ridden a horse."
Qin Yao's answer was simple and direct, "Just come up and hold me tight."
Yin Le happily responded "OK" and grabbed her hand. He felt a huge force pulling him into the air.
When he came to his senses, he was already sitting on the horse, with Qin Yao's tall back in front of him.
Yin Le quickly hugged her waist, and then he felt the horse moving up and down under him, at a moderate speed, giving her time to adapt.
Qin Yao felt very sorry for her own horse and was reluctant to let it run wildly with two adults on its back. Plus, the weather was good, so she drove out of Jiaya Village at a leisurely pace with Yin Le.
When passing by the field of a young villager who was helping him look after his horses, he took the opportunity to thank him.
Old Huang knew at a glance that the cat had eaten. The other party took good care of it and it was neither thirsty nor hungry.
However, Lao Huang was obviously not satisfied. Seeing that his master was not in a hurry, if he saw some tender grass on the roadside, he would stop to satisfy his craving and eat while walking.
This speed also gave Yin Le enough room to relax during her first time riding a horse. She already knew that she couldn't sit too firmly on the horse's back, otherwise her buttocks and thighs would be rubbed painfully.
So, I followed the horse's pace, moving my body up and down accordingly, and slowly mastered the correct rhythm.
Seeing that the time was almost right, Qin Yao urged Lao Huang, increased the speed a bit, and trotted towards Kaiyang County.
In the afternoon, the two arrived at Qingshui Town, had a meal in the town to fill their stomachs, and rested for fifteen minutes before continuing on their journey.
As Xinghua Village was so remote and hard to find, and no accidents had happened this morning, Qin Yao thought that she should be able to reach Kaiyang County smoothly today.
Unexpectedly, not long after leaving Qingshui Town, our way was blocked by a large rock rolling down the hillside.
Old Huang was nearly hit and frightened. Fortunately, Qin Yao was an excellent horse rider and was able to stop the horse in time when it was about to run into the river in panic.
Otherwise, the two people would have rolled down from the road more than two meters high into the rushing river.
When Yin Le came back to his senses from the shock, he thought it was an accident.
But when I looked up, I saw that the inner hillside was only covered with grass and there was no cliff at all, so it was impossible for such a large rock to suddenly roll down.
There was a rustling sound of running ahead, and Qin Yao, who had been serious and tense, suddenly laughed sarcastically.
At this time, more than a dozen figures slid down from the grass on the side slope, all of them with their faces covered, holding hidden weapons and knives, and coming aggressively.
Without a word of nonsense at the beginning, fifteen people quickly blocked the way ahead and surrounded Qin Yao and the other man on their horses with murderous intent.
They seemed to know that the woman in front of them was not easy to deal with, so they were extremely cautious with every step. As long as Qin Yao made any move, they would immediately throw the hidden weapons in their hands.
Qin Yao only had a knife, and facing more than a dozen fully-equipped professional killers, she had no chance of winning.
What's more, she now has to protect another person, and the difficulty increases sharply.
Yin Le's heart was pounding, she hadn't yet realized that these people were coming for her.
He swallowed hard and said with difficulty: "Sister Qin, we seem to have encountered bandits."
Qin Yao replied: "Yes, we encountered bandits."
So killing the thief is not a crime!
In the blink of an eye, the distance between the two sides was less than five meters.
One of the killers suddenly raised his hand and scattered a handful of yellow powder into the wind, then he suddenly accelerated and rushed forward.
Qin Yao only felt her vision blurred, and the figure rushing towards her could not be seen clearly in the pink screen.
Moreover, she did not think that the powder was just a blinding powder, so she quickly took off her bag and stuffed it on Yin Le's face, then picked her up by the waist and turned her from behind to the front, then held her breath, squeezed the horse's belly, and turned the horse's head.
A strong wind blew from behind. Qin Yao didn't even turn her head and stabbed with her knife. The sound of flesh being pierced soon reached her ears.
The knife that was stabbing at her fell down helplessly just before it hit her back.
There was a dull thud, which was the sound of the killer falling from the air.
But once this one is solved, the next one soon approaches again.
This time there were two people, who threw out chains with lead balls attached in an attempt to hook the horseshoes and trip her.
Qin Yao rode her horse with a big leap and dodged the flying shot put and iron chain.
Yin Le, who was on the horse's back, was thrown high into the air by the horse's sudden leap, and then fell high down. With the bag covering his face, he almost fainted at that moment.
Qin Yao increased her speed, and Lao Huang seemed to know that the situation was extremely critical, so he used all his strength and ran very fast.
However, the other party still has a backup plan.
The dust on the ground ahead suddenly rose up, and a brown hemp rope suddenly stretched straight, blocking the middle of the road.
If a horse running at high speed hits this hemp rope, the consequences will be disastrous.
The murderous intent in Qin Yao's eyes grew steadily. She grabbed the reins and used great strength to pull Lao Huang's entire body up high. She then leaned over to hold it down to prevent it from falling backwards, and turned it in a sudden direction.
The painful neighing of the horses and the flying dust echoed in the canyon, making people's eardrums hurt.
When the horse's front hooves landed on the ground again, the two sides were face to face again. The distance between them was less than ten meters, and it would take only two breaths to catch up with Qin Yao and the others.
However, there is no powder blocking the view here.
Qin Yao patted poor Old Huang gently, dismounted from her horse, and angrily charged forward with her knife in hand!
Let them all die!
