Su Wan was shaken awake.
She raised her hand and rubbed her sore neck. She sat up and found herself lying in the carriage of a simple horse-drawn carriage. The carriage swayed and seemed to be moving forward, with the wheels creaking.
His hands and feet were not bound, he was not missing anything, and his mouth was not stuffed with cloth or anything like that.
Who are those Western Rong people? Where are they taking her?
Her first thought was probably of Luna's men. But then she reconsidered and rejected her own judgment.
Based on her experience dealing with Luna, she felt that although Luna loved money, he wasn't the kind of person who said one thing to someone's face and another behind their back. Since he had taken her medicine and left, he wouldn't resort to underhanded tactics like a sneak attack.
Could they be bandits or something similar roaming the border between the two countries?
If that were the case, her current situation would be far worse. It doesn't seem like it.
She walked to the car door and gently pushed it. The door was locked from the outside. She had no choice but to go back to the window and peek outside through a crack in the curtain.
A woman from the Western Rong region rode a horse and a carriage side by side. The scenery along the roadside was no longer the familiar town of Da Jin, but a vast grassland. A few white clouds drifted in the azure sky, and the cold sunlight shone on the undulating, yellow-green sea of grass, reflecting glimmers of gold.
Judging from the position of the sun, the carriage was traveling north.
Emma, you've gone abroad.
She lowered the curtain, then secretly peeked out from the other side of the carriage and saw another Western Rong man on horseback following beside the carriage. Even if she had the courage to climb out the window, she certainly wouldn't be able to escape.
She sighed, lowered the curtains, and sat back down.
Escape was out of the question, and there were no automatic weapons or other firearms in her apartment. The pharmacy did have some highly toxic compounds, but based on basic common sense, these Xirong people outside wouldn't be foolish enough to drink what she offered.
I wonder if Wei Jingzhuo knows she's been kidnapped. Knowing his personality, he'll definitely come to rescue her.
There's no use thinking about it; we can only wait.
She took out her tablet from her apartment and continued watching the show.
She downloaded this fantasy drama before she transmigrated, and watched more than ten episodes after transmigrating. The plot is about halfway through, and today she is watching the sixteenth episode.
This episode is about the female lead suffering from amnesia, forgetting their past love, and stabbing the male lead. The male lead reaches out his blood-stained hand to touch her face, but she slaps it away and stabs him several more times, nearly turning him into a sieve…
Su Wan's eyes reddened as she watched, and she clicked on the next episode.
In the next episode, the male lead, in order to restore the female lead's memories, drags his injured body to fight a demon. The demon is extremely powerful, and the male lead is once again wounded and defeated. At this moment, the second male lead appears and offers the male lead a condition: if the male lead swears to abandon the female lead, the second male lead will help him defeat the demon.
As Su Wan expected, how could a man with such a deep and affectionate character like the male lead give up his love for the female lead? He decisively rejected the second male lead's temptation and decided to burn his life to fight the demon god to the death.
The male protagonist finally unleashed a forbidden technique to defeat the demon god and obtained the demon god's inner core, which restored the female protagonist's memories. However, due to burning his life force, he only had three days left to live. He took the inner core to find the female protagonist, but the second male lead ambushed him on the way and stole the inner core.
Su Wan was so engrossed in watching that she couldn't stop. While cursing the second male lead's scheming character, she was also eager to know the male lead's fate, so she clicked on episode eighteen.
Skipping past the opening credits and the credits, the plot shifts to the second male lead. He's found the female lead; it turns out her amnesia was part of a conspiracy, and he's the mastermind behind it…
At the end of this episode, when Su Wan saw that the second male lead was preventing the female lead from regaining her memories, she finally understood. It turned out that the second male lead didn't want the female lead to regain her memories at all.
While cursing the second male lead in her heart, Su Wan also felt something was amiss.
The virtuous and upright male lead didn't leave much of an impression on her; her only impression was that he always had a stern face and was a cold, love-obsessed guy. However, the cunning and ruthless second male lead left a deep impression. Especially his methods—cruel and cunning—were completely at odds with his puppy-like appearance.
Wanting to understand why the second male lead didn't want the female lead to regain her memories, she clicked on episode nineteen again, scrolled through the opening credits and cast list, and saw the second male lead talking to the female lead. Then…
The tablet is out of battery.
Not quite done watching, she left her tablet in her apartment to charge, planning to watch the next episode once it was fully charged.
The sound of rapid hoofbeats came from outside the carriage, as if hundreds or thousands of warhorses were approaching.
She quickly stood up and leaned over the carriage to listen carefully to the sounds outside.
A man's voice rang out from outside the carriage: "Commander, the King already knows that you have received the goddess, and has specially ordered me to lead the cavalry to escort you."
Another male voice replied, "No need, I will personally escort the goddess to the king."
Su Wan scratched her head in confusion, then carefully checked that there was no one else in the carriage. She even lay down on the floor to see if anyone was hiding under the seats.
After confirming that she was alone in the car, she realized something.
The goddess they were talking about was her.
But how could that be? Everyone knows Bai Zhiyi is the goddess. If anyone should be arrested, it should be Bai Zhiyi, not the scapegoat.
She couldn't understand it for a moment, so she drew back the curtains and saw outside a vast array of Western Rong cavalry, each carrying a different colored battle flag. There were probably over a thousand of them. All the cavalrymen surrounded the carriage, moving at the same speed as it. It felt like some kind of welcoming ceremony.
A military camp appeared ahead of the carriage, with banners fluttering and the deep sound of bugles echoing in the sky.
The voices of the two men from before continued to ring out from the side and front of the carriage.
