Perhaps due to the difference in air quality between the two spaces, baby Zhong Jingheng seemed to sense something and let out a dissatisfied whimper after coming out. Then Shuang'er also let out a whimper.
Hearing the childish voice coming from the carriage, the guards' doubts lessened somewhat. However, even if they still had questions, they dared not bring them up in front of their master.
Inside the space, Song Tantan fed Ye Moxun his medicine, and after confirming that he had fallen asleep, she took a shower and lay down next to him when she came back.
Perhaps she really was a little carefree; she fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow and slept until dawn, vaguely hearing Song Zhuiyan coaxing the little chubby boy outside.
"Madam, do you need our help?" Caiqing and Caiyue stood outside the carriage, not daring to lift the curtain and go in directly. Since the madam had not given any instructions, they dared not make the decision on their own.
"You guys wait outside for a bit, we'll call you later," Song Zhuiyan said.
Then she raised her voice and said, "Tantan, get up quickly. Heng'er can't stay still and wants to go out. Take him outside for a walk."
Song Tantan jumped out of bed with a start, changed her clothes, fetched water to wash Ye Moxun's face, and then, with a thought, took him out of the space with her.
"You're sleeping so soundly, you won't even wake up unless I call you." It's already dawn, if you don't come out soon we'll really be exposed.
Song Tantan stuck out her tongue, feeling a little guilty. Ah Xun was so badly injured, yet she could still sleep so soundly. Her conscience ached a little.
"Brother, sister, transform!" Shuang'er was still asleep, but Heng'er witnessed the transformation of the person inside the carriage. However, he was always brave and was not frightened.
I was just really surprised and found it so much fun, so after I calmed down, I clapped my hands and giggled, and kept asking to play too.
"Shh, don't tell anyone, okay? How about your sister takes you flying?" Song Tantan coaxed him in a low voice.
The little one clapped his hands again and said in a childish voice, "Okay, Heng'er wants to fly, and sister will take the nest and fly."
"I'll take Heng'er out to play first. If A-Xun wakes up, just call me." After saying that, Song Tantan picked up the little guy and got off the carriage.
She carried Heng'er around the track once, and the little guy laughed happily, clamoring to play more. But Song Tantan realized that this made her look silly, so she refused to run another lap.
The chubby boy protested, "I want to fly, I want to fly!" He had promised to take him flying, but he changed his mind after just one lap. Absolutely not.
Song Tantan looked utterly hopeless. If it were just his own people here, he could go crazy however he wanted without a care in the world. But there was a caravan ahead of him.
The caravan of over two hundred people all looked over at the same time, watching this young woman carrying a chubby little boy and running around like crazy. Their expressions were simply indescribable and hard to describe.
She was also quite embarrassed.
But the chubby boy was not easy to deal with; the little guy was getting more and more cunning and not easy to fool.
Song Tantan frowned, looking troubled. Then she looked up and saw the two horses tied under the tree, and her eyes lit up immediately.
She's got it! She can take the chubby boy horseback riding.
But it was early morning, just as dawn was breaking, and the fog at the foot of the mountain was very thick and quite chilly. Song Tantan was afraid that Heng'er would catch a cold, so she took one of her own outer garments and wrapped it around him.
Only her large, dark, grape-like eyes remained, darting around. "Ugh, no, no, I don't like it."
Heng'er expressed strong protest, saying she was not used to being wrapped up so tightly.
"You have to wear it even if you don't like it. It's windy when you're riding a horse. What if you catch a cold?" Song Tan pretended not to see his annoyance and simply picked him up and slung him onto the horse.
"You think just wrapping him up is enough? You also have to tie him up, otherwise you'll fall off when you run." She used the baby carrier to tie the little guy around her waist.
At first, Heng'er's chubby little hands were still pulling hard on the straps binding him, but when the horse started running, he was stunned. After a moment of stunned silence, he suddenly screamed excitedly.
"Ah...flying high, so high, so fun!" This is the rhythm he likes. What was flying like when his sister carried him? This is what flying is all about.
Zhu Ye's caravan had already started cooking, and everyone would occasionally glance up at the two people, one big and one small, making a ruckus early in the morning.
A young girl who has just reached the age of marriage has such a cheerful and outgoing personality, more generous and uninhibited than a boy. A two-year-old boy is full of energy and has an extraordinary amount of courage. He likes to be taken to do thrilling sports.
What wonderful people they are!
At this moment, atop the canyon peak, the leader of the gang stared intently at the entrance with a gloomy face. Last night, he had led more than two hundred men to launch a surprise attack on the two caravans that had stopped outside the canyon.
They thought they had it in the bag, but when they reached the halfway point of the mountain, they were attacked by wild beasts, suffering heavy casualties. In the end, only he escaped unharmed.
However, he did not come away empty-handed last night. At least he found out who the culprit was: a boy and a little girl. He clearly saw a huge wolf cub standing next to them.
He almost killed the boy, but the boy reacted too quickly and managed to dodge his attack. He thought the boy would fall to his death.
However, at the critical moment, a wolf jumped out and grabbed him, and then a little girl came running from the darkness, calling out.
The leader, knife in hand, intended to rush over and kill the two men, but the wolf cub kept howling, and he worried that it would attract the wolf pack. After hesitating for a moment, he reluctantly fled first.
After returning to the mountain stronghold and telling the second-in-command what had happened, the two discussed it and decided to wait for the group to cross the canyon today, believing that those people would not cross the canyon today.
The village originally had more than 300 people, but more than 200 died overnight, leaving only more than 100 people, a loss of two-thirds, which really infuriated him.
"This day next year will be their death anniversary. Not a single one of them can be spared. I will not only make them pay for their crimes in blood, but I will also tear out their tendons and eat their flesh." The leader let out a sinister, grotesque laugh.
The caravan was planning to cross the canyon, but Song Tantan and the others decided to stay for two more days, at least until Ye Moxun's injuries had healed before setting off.
Although Master Zhu knew there were bandits in the canyon, he didn't know how many people were in the stronghold. But last night, after hearing the roars of tigers and howls of wolves, as well as the continuous screams, he guessed that many people had probably died on the mountain.
This morning at dawn, he sent three of his most skilled guards up the mountain to investigate, and they found that at least two hundred people had died halfway up the mountain.
It was a scene so brutal it could be described as a river of blood.
So he guessed that things should have gone like this: the bandits led a group to raid them at night, but they were attacked by wild beasts on the way, and before they could do their evil deed, they were killed.
Even if not all of them died, the casualties were still heavy, so he believed that crossing the canyon today should be safe.
As the caravan prepared to depart, Song Tantan and the others were having breakfast. Upon seeing this, she lowered her eyes and struggled for a moment between saving them and not saving them.
Considering the lives of over two hundred people, is it really possible to just stand by and watch them die?
That's enough, I can't be heartless.
She stood up and called out, "Master Zhu, please wait, I have something to say."
