After leaving the city, Qin Nian saw Su Bi standing by the woods on the side of the road, with two white horses beside him.
Qin Nian walked over, handed a water bag to Su Bi, and hung his own on the saddle.
Su Bi asked softly, "Have you settled grandma?"
Qin Nian nodded: "It's safe. Let's go."
Qin Nian had never ridden a horse before, but he was very brave. He grabbed the saddle and stepped onto the horse's back. He tapped the horse's belly lightly with his heels, urging the horse to move forward slowly.
Su Bi also climbed onto the horse. From Qin Nian's movements, he could tell that Qin Nian had never ridden a horse before.
Fortunately, I got used to it after riding for a while. In the words of Mrs. Li, it is good to be young. No matter what you do, you can learn quickly.
Even if you fall, you can get up quickly.
There were endless groups of refugees on the road. Most of them were ragged, pale and thin, pushing carts or carrying loads. They looked as miserable as they could be.
At every moment there are people who can't walk, so they just sit on the side of the road, looking at the waning sunset, not knowing where the road leads.
The western gate of Yi County has been heavily guarded since a few days ago, and refugees are not allowed to enter.
As for where the refugees go, that is their business and has nothing to do with the officers and soldiers guarding the city.
We cannot simply accuse the officers and soldiers of being ruthless. They are just small people and are just following orders.
Every little person may be in danger at any time, so who can take risks for whom?
Even if we really take the risk of letting people into the city, it will not solve their livelihood problems and it will be meaningless.
The setting sun made his eyes red, and he couldn't bear to watch this tragic scene any longer, so he fell down at a very fast speed.
Su Bi turned his head to look at Qin Nian: "Xiao Nian, shall we walk at night?"
Qin Nian nodded and said softly, "It's the middle of the moon now, the moonlight is very bright, we don't have to worry about being robbed by refugees, so let's keep going for a while.
We'll find an inn to rest when we get to the next town. But can you handle it?"
Su Bi chuckled: "I have recovered 80% of my power, so I will have no problem traveling all night."
At midnight, the moon is setting in the west.
The two men stopped and let the horses graze by the woods, then they leaned against a big tree and closed their eyes to rest.
The night with moonlight is not dark at all. But the night with refugees, I dare not sleep soundly for fear that someone will steal my horse.
After a short rest, eating some dry food and drinking some water, I got up and continued on my way.
At the end of the Yin hour, they passed by a small town, found an inn, and asked the waiter to feed the horses with good food.
Su Bi and Qin Nian booked two guest rooms and stayed there.
After dinner, the two returned to their respective rooms and lay down to rest.
Qin Nian was thinking about Mrs. Li in the space, so after locking the door, he slipped in.
Mrs. Li got up early and finished her breakfast. She was sitting on Qin Nian's bed in a daze.
The environment was unfamiliar enough to be manageable, but most importantly it was magical and she couldn't adapt to it for a while.
It was like a dream, and like I was in heaven. It didn't seem real. When Qin Nian came in, Mrs. Li was so happy that she smiled like a flower.
Qin Nian slapped her forehead and said, "Grandma, look at my memory. I forgot to bring the needlework you did.
But it’s okay, I’ll get it for you right away.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he moved his mind and took out the needle and thread basket that Mrs. Li had forgotten in the cave.
Mrs. Li was amazed and overjoyed. This restless person was finally no longer lonely.
Qin Nian said: "Grandma, I am too sleepy now, I need to sleep for a while. When I have enough sleep, I will put my -
I moved the sewing machine from the warehouse and taught you how to use it. Once you learn how to use it, it will save you a lot of effort when you sew.
It’s easier to make a dress.”
Mrs. Li was full of admiration for Qin Nian's space. No matter what new things Qin Nian took out, she could accept them at this moment.
But no matter how good things are, they are not as important as her little Nian sleeping.
Qin Nian briefly talked about the journey she and Su Bi had taken, then lay down on the bed and fell asleep.
She hadn't even turned over the whole day, and now she was riding a horse out of the blue, so she was really exhausted.
Qin Nian slept until the afternoon and then woke up.
After Mrs. Li finished cooking, she said in surprise, "Xiao Nian, this gas is really energy-saving. Just twist it and the fire will light up.
Once it's lit, there's no need to add firewood. If you want to put out the fire, just turn the knob. It's magical, really magical.
If your Aunt Geng and the others saw this, wouldn't they be scared? "
Qin Nian smiled: "It's scary, but it must be scary enough.
Grandma, do you still remember the thing hanging around Dong Biao's neck in the spring? It was the thing I threw out from the space and hung on him. "
Talking about the bicycle tire that had been hung around Dong Biao's neck, Qin Nian couldn't stop laughing.
"So it was you who did it. You almost frightened Dong Biao to death and scared the whole family."
As the grandfather and grandson were talking, Qin Nian heard a gentle knock on the door outside.
"Grandma, Su Bi is knocking on the door. You can eat by yourself. I have to go out and come in when I have the chance."
"Why didn't I hear it?"
"Maybe the space is not yours, so you can't hear it. That's probably the reason. I can't be sure because I haven't tested it."
After Qin Nian finished speaking, he put on his clothes and went out quickly.
Mrs. Li laughed: "Oh, my little Nian has caught up with the gods."
She gestured a bit, trying to dodge in and out like Qin Nian, but her body didn't move and remained where she was.
Mrs. Li laughed even more: "What kind of space is this? It's too magical. And that mirror, no, I have to take a look, I don't look ugly at all——"
Qin Nian went out and gently opened the door of the guest room.
Su Bi stood at the door, his eyes filled with concern.
"Xiao Nian, did I disturb you? I wanted to wait a little longer, but you've been sleeping for so long, I'm afraid something might happen."
The world is in chaos now, and it is impossible for someone as experienced as Su Bi to not be careful.
He had woken up a long time ago, and Qin Nianyi, who lived next door, was still motionless. Just in case, he had to come over to check.
"I was in a hurry last night, a little tired, and overslept."
"If you are too tired, go back to sleep after dinner and leave tomorrow."
Qin Nian shook his head: "I slept for a short day, now I'm fine."
The two men went out to eat, then got on their horses and continued on their journey.
They walked for ten days, hiding during the day and moving at night. When they were tired, they stopped by the roadside to rest for a while, eat some dry food and drink some water.
Buy two bags of hay in every town. When you have a break, open the bag and put it under the horse's mouth to feed the horse.
During these ten days, Su Bi practiced internal energy to heal his injuries every day. All his injuries have healed and his internal energy has almost recovered.
On the eleventh day, we were very close to Quguan.
That day, passing by a small town, Su Bi said to Qin Nian: "Let's stay in the town tonight and set out during the day tomorrow.
Before noon, we can reach the place where my uncle and I had the accident and look around to see where we can get down from the cliff.
If you can't go down, go around this mountain and go down from another place."
Qin Nian looked up at the setting sun and nodded: "Okay, let's rest early tonight and set off early tomorrow."
Two men entered the town.
Su Bi and Lin Tiancheng also stayed in this town last time. He took Qin Nian to the inn where they had stayed before and booked two guest rooms.
