"Let's do it right here."
Bei Yutang looked around at the surrounding mountains and trees, and watched the weather. He already had a plan in mind.
They first led the carriage into the mountains and separated the horses from the carriage.
"Mo'er, take out those three steps that we brought out."
"good."
Xiao Moer ran back to the car, took out their gifts, and found the Three Steps Down. Ever since the last dangerous experience on the road, they always had things like this on hand, just in case something happened on the road.
Bei Yutang and Xiao Moer were getting ready, and the sun was gradually getting dark. They found a place and built a fire.
In the dark night, you can see a cluster of flames burning, which can be seen from far away.
"Are you cold?" Bei Yutang held Xiao Moer's hand.
Xiao Moer shook his head, "It's not cold."
Bei Yutang noticed that the climate here was different from other places. Although the temperature in the mountains would be slightly cooler at night than during the day, the temperature difference between day and night in this canyon was obviously huge.
The clothes they wore during the day were of no use at night.
"Come closer."
Bei Yutang draped his windbreaker over the two of them and wrapped Xiao Moer in his arms.
If they discovered the problem, they should have caught up with us based on the time. If they didn't, then tonight would be peaceful.
"Mom, will they find out?" Little Moer tilted his little head and looked at her.
"That's hard to say. It depends on how alert their leader is. If they discovered it early, they would have arrived long ago. If they haven't arrived yet, it means they discovered it very late, or they haven't discovered it yet."
"Mom, who are they and why are they chasing us?"
"There are only two possibilities for things happening in this world. One is that they're after us because they want something from us. The second is out of hatred, and that hatred drives them to pursue us to the death. These are the two most basic possibilities. If it's not for profit, then they've provoked hatred themselves."
"Of course, there is another possibility."
"What?"
"It's an unexpected disaster. You have nothing to do with anything, but they dragged you into this mess and made you get hunted." Bei Yutang touched Xiao Zimo's head, "Mo'er, can you guess what kind of disaster we've encountered?"
Xiao Moer replied without thinking: "The first one."
"Why?"
"First of all, we haven't had any enemies along the way. Naturally, it's impossible for us to encounter revenge killings. As for the third option, an unexpected disaster, that doesn't fit either. We haven't encountered any group being chased along the way. Therefore, the first option is undoubtedly the case."
"Mo'er has other reasons for believing this. First, the most valuable thing we have is the Ice Skin Cream. With Ice Skin Cream becoming a sought-after item, it's natural that some people want to possess its secret recipe. And the secret recipe is in our hands. They can get it if they capture us."
"Secondly, when we left Sanshui Town, my mother noticed that Manager Lin was acting suspiciously, which clearly shows that he was motivated by profit."
"Mother, are those who are hunting us from the Lei's Trading Company? Are they trying to monopolize the secret recipe of the Ice Skin Cream, and that's why they're hunting us down?"
"Not necessarily. Before, because you were still young, I didn't tell you in detail about some things. Now that I've encountered this kind of thing, I think I'll encounter it again in the future. So, mother is going to talk to you."
