Chapter 140: Reunion
Half an hour later, we officially set off.
Not only was the flatbed truck loaded to the brim, they also seized the White Bear Country cavalry's horses, as well as armor and weapons.
The war horses pulled the flatbed cart in front, and the guards walked on both sides to escort it. The cart was loaded not only with bags of salt, but also with several seriously injured and dead horses.
Even when food was scarce, horse meat was edible.
Even though the soldiers couldn't eat it, there were so many hungry civilians, so they wouldn't waste it.
In addition, Su Chengnan has already mastered her riding skills, and the warhorse that accompanied her in fighting the fire in the mountains has become her exclusive mount. She takes Su Linhua with her, two per horse, and follows Lu Chaofeng and others forward.
"Sister, when did you learn to ride a horse?"
"After we came out of Yinmeng Mountain, Jiayi took me for a few days, and then I rode on my own."
"You learn so fast! I want to learn too."
"No problem." Su Chengnan agreed readily.
"But I can only ride but not teach. I'd better find a master for you. Tell me who you want to teach."
Su Linhua hummed for a long time, looked left and right, and finally murmured: "A Shun has a good figure, but he's a little silly. As for Gangzi Bingsan, he's too familiar and boring. It's a pity that Qingshan hasn't recovered yet."
Su Chengnan frowned, pulled his neck back half an inch, and quickly glanced back at her, "What are you thinking, you damn girl! Be serious."
"It doesn't matter. Anything is fine. As long as I can learn it." Su Linhua smiled and answered honestly.
The two sisters got together and laughed and chatted non-stop.
Because they had to consider the flatbed carts, all the horses walked on both sides, leaving the center of the road for transportation as much as possible, so everyone kept their distance and walked forward in vertical files. No one paid attention to what the two were saying.
Su Linhua put her arms around Su Chengnan's waist and fed her a piece of chocolate or spicy dried food from time to time. She seemed very energetic along the way.
It took about two hours.
They finally caught up with the group of refugees.
From a distance, Su Chengnan saw Liuzi and his companions waiting on the roadside, looking in this direction.
"Haha, we're almost there," she said excitedly.
"That's great! My butt is sore from sitting. Finally I don't have to ride a horse." Su Linhua also laughed happily when she heard it.
But Lu Chaofeng, who was riding in front, heard the two sisters' hearty laughter and couldn't help but turned around and asked, "What are you so happy about?"
Well……
Su Chengnan's smile froze on her face. When she was happy, she forgot that she was the only one with outstanding eyesight. Now, how do I explain this?
"I..." She hesitated for a long time, and suddenly an idea came to her mind, "My sister just told me a joke to make me happy."
"Really?" Lu Chaofeng raised his eyebrows.
"Hahahaha, that's right, I was just teasing my eldest sister. The young master is open-minded and he definitely has no interest in the affairs of us girls." Su Linhua teased a few words, and sure enough, he didn't ask any more questions.
Ah Shun ran forward for a circle, then turned back and said, "My Lord, we caught up with them."
"Great! Come on, everyone, work hard, we'll be able to rest soon."
"yes!"
Lu Chaofeng has been highly concentrated for several days in a row, and his physical workload has almost reached its limit.
"Grandpa Yu, Granny Jiang! They are back."
"It's the prince! The young lady is back too."
"Let's go, everyone come and greet us!"
After Liuzi finished speaking, everyone was excited.
They advanced at full speed all the way, not daring to rest or light torches, until they entered the depths of the mountains, and finally stopped in this canyon that was easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Qingshan, who heard the noise, could no longer sit still. He propped himself up and tried to get up, but was pushed back by the guard who was watching over him.
"Brother Qingshan, don't get excited. I'll go check it out for you."
"Okay, okay, go quickly! Thank God the prince and his men are finally here."
He was always worried that something might happen to them. If that happened, he would never be able to atone for his sins, and he would probably only be able to die in front of the princess's tomb to atone for his sins.
Fortunately, I am back, it’s really the blessing of Bodhisattva! May our ancestors bless you!
The two gangs were looking at each other from a distance. Ah Shun could not wait any longer and ran back and forth twice.
The people looked at the huge flatbed trucks, stretched their necks and talked in low voices.
"What do you think is in that car?"
"I don't know, but they have to be shipped out at this critical moment. I'm afraid it's food."
"The food is good. I am almost starving and I don't have the strength to walk."
"I don't think so!" Someone put his hands in his sleeves and said, "Have you forgotten? We searched those houses in the village and found nothing. Not to mention food, we didn't even have a few decent thick winter clothes. I don't believe that there was any food brought out."
"What's in the car?"
"Could it be... that they are all people who died in the battle?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's face changed.
Just now, someone wanted to run over to help out and show off in front of the prince.
But now I thought that it might be a corpse.
Everyone stopped, lowered their heads, and
He sat back on the stone he had just warmed up.
"You can't do this, it's unlucky!"
"That's right."
"Come on, let's take a break."
The intersection that was crowded just now was, in the blink of an eye, filled with only the people from Tieniu Village and the guards who escorted them out.
Liu Laosan heard what they said and said angrily: "You cowards! If he hadn't been protecting the common people, he wouldn't have died. But you are so unlucky! You still think it's unlucky."
"I see you are all ungrateful bastards without conscience!"
"Only remember to eat, not to be thanked!"
These people came later, and they had always disliked those people in Tieniu Village who had a closer relationship with the guards.
Now Liu Laosan was pointing at people's noses and cursing in front of everyone, so they naturally couldn't save their face.
"What are you talking about!"
"What does it have to do with you whether I go or not?"
"If you want to be a lackey and curry favor with others, just go there yourself. Don't just talk nonsense."
Liu Laosan was too lazy to waste time talking to them. He spat at them and rolled up his sleeves, saying, "Okay, you ungrateful wolves, just wait!"
"Since you don't want to work hard, I think you guys are going to miss out on food. We don't want to keep idle people in the team!"
"Stop talking nonsense. Just do the work if you want. We don't eat your food anyway."
Liu Laosan looked at the man and sneered, memorizing his face carefully in his mind, then rushed to the front with his brothers, "Let's go! Let's go and help!"
"Walk!"
The men sitting behind the rocks were still cursing. Qingshan already felt extremely guilty, and after hearing these words, he could no longer endure it.
"You all shut up!"
