A head rolled directly to the ground and stopped only when it hit the steps. There was still a smile on the man's face.
Seeing that he was dead, the man in black put away his sword and flew away.
A quarter of an hour later, a clerk discovered that Shopkeeper Lin was dead, and with him disappeared the box of Ice Skin Cream.
At the same time, Bei Yutang drove the carriage towards the southeast. When he came to a three-way intersection, Bei Yutang drove the carriage in one direction for a distance, and then returned along the original wheel marks.
When Xiao Moer saw this, he immediately understood what his mother was going to do.
"Mother, are you deliberately creating confusion?"
"Um."
Bei Yutang drove the carriage in another direction, while using leaves to erase the wheel marks on the ground bit by bit.
I hope this will buy them more time and it would be best if I could get rid of them.
After doing all this, Bei Yutang sped up. After walking for a while, a narrow mountain road appeared in front of them. The carriage should not go too fast, otherwise it would fall off the cliff accidentally.
At the same time, at the fork in the road where Bei Yutang had passed, a group of people stopped. A man in black jumped off his horse and walked to the fork in the road to look.
"Commander, the wheel mark goes this way."
The masked man in black ordered, "Chase."
A group of people ran wildly towards the place that Bei Yutang had preset in advance. They were running very fast. The horses they rode were all good horses. Compared with the carriage, their speed was more than twice as fast.
After chasing for an hour, the masked man in the lead suddenly stopped the carriage.
"Commander, what's wrong?" asked the deputy beside him.
The masked man frowned and muttered, "Something's wrong."
They were riding in a carriage, and even if they had been walking for an hour, they should have caught up with the carriage based on their horseback riding speed, but no trace of them had been seen so far.
The masked man jumped off his horse, squatted down to check the ground, and found that there were no wheel marks on the ground. He cried out in his heart, "Oh no!"
Damn, they got fooled.
The masked man immediately jumped on his horse, turned around, and said, "Chase."
The masked man was terrified. Perhaps they had already known they were being pursued, and therefore had set up a maze beforehand? If not for this reason, he couldn't think of a second possibility.
Humph, so what even if I know there are pursuers.
"Speed up."
At the masked man's command, everyone sped up.
Bei Yutang frowned as she surveyed the mountain road. The road was narrow, making it difficult to drive too fast. Her previous deception had only delayed the passage for a while. Now, all that time had been wasted on this stretch of road.
Now there are no advantages.
Alas, it’s all because I chose the wrong path.
Little Moer saw her mother's worry, and her face was tightly knitted. "Mom, since we can't shake them off, why don't we set an ambush ahead?"
"Set an ambush?" Bei Yutang turned his head to look at the little guy.
After Xiao Moer finished speaking, he slapped his head and said, "I forgot, we only have the strength of two people."
Bei Yutang was in deep thought. It was true that the two of them could not dig holes or set traps, but they could use other things.
Bei Yutang began to observe the surrounding environment on the road. When they reached a canyon, Bei Yutang slowed down the car and finally stopped.
This place is narrow and there are towering mountains on both sides. It is not suitable for group attack, but it is a good place to set an ambush.
