Chapter 37 Encountering a Horse Thief

Chapter 37 Encountering a Horse Thief
However, she still laughed at herself, even in the village, with her martial arts skills, she is not someone who can swallow her anger!
It's still going to be a success, it's still going to shine!
However, then he wouldn't know Qiu Yichen, right?
That Qiu Yichen who looks even she is ashamed of herself!
Thinking of the cute innocence and mother, Lin Tianen still thinks that now is the best time!
She has family, friends, and a few loyal maids.

Now, it would be even better if there is a father who understands the truth and is willing to support mother and their siblings!
There is still a long way to go, she can't just be greedy for a moment of peace!

If she wants her relatives to live better and herself to become stronger, she needs to work hard and fight for it!

General Lin may not be one to rely on.

The only person you can rely on is yourself!
Lin Tianen made up his mind and naturally rode his horse all the way.

It was not until dusk that I found a place near the stream, tied up the horse, and ate some dried meat.

After the moon came out, Lin Tianen took out the flint and lit a fire with the dead branches he found.

She leaned against the trunk of a big tree to rest, and if there were any small animals, she would still have time to climb the tree.

It's just that the spring cold dew was heavy, and she woke up from the cold before dawn, and found that the fire was extinguished, so she lit the fire again, and ate some steamed buns to make do.

As soon as the sky was getting brighter and the sun was just showing a little bit, Lin Tianen recognized the opposite direction of the sun, and began to drive on his horse again.

She has been concentrating on her journey, so she is still very fast. When passing by villages and towns on the official road, she deliberately dismounted to ask for directions to ensure that she did not go in the wrong direction.

Although Qiu Yichen started off only half an hour later than Lin Tianen, but because little Tuozi vomited too much, he had to slow down.

It wasn't until little Tuozi had nothing to vomit that he speeded up.

But even so, when he stopped to rest at dusk, he still couldn't see the trace left by Lin Tianen.

It was too dark at night to distinguish the path, so Qiu Yichen could only wait for dawn before chasing him.

When it was just dawn, Qiu Yichen woke up Xiao Tuozai.

Xiao Tuozai's round face looked particularly ugly now, his lips were blue, and now his eyes were even bluer.

Qiu Yichen felt a little guilty, so he waited for little Tuozi to eat slowly before starting to hurry.

During the whole morning, Xiao Tuozi tried his best to distinguish the smell of incense powder in the air, and led Qiu Yichen to find the fire that had no heat by the stream.

Qiu Yichen looked around and felt that Lin Tianen rested here last night!
Because there are water and trees, no matter what happens or animals, we can deal with it immediately.

That little girl is very careful, and she only looks for such a safe place to sleep.

It's just that he underestimated her endurance.

After running for a whole day yesterday, nearly a hundred miles away, even a warrior would feel tired.

She actually set off again so early!

After rubbing his sore right arm, Qiu Yichen and Xiao Tuozai started chasing people again!This time, the speed is even faster.

After traveling all the way and inquiring all the way, Qiu Yichen finally heard the news he wanted to know the most.

"One hour ago, a young man went west along the official road! I heard that what city he was going to." A farmer pointed out.

For the first time in two days, Qiu Yichen smiled. He took out a gold leaf and handed it to the farmer, "Thank you!"

The farmer stared blankly at the gold leaf in his hand, then looked at Qiu Yichen who had already disappeared, thinking, "People have chased me here, that young man must owe a lot of money! But, this is gold Is this kid a liar?"

When Lin Tianen approached noon, he asked the way again, and finally confirmed that there were still twenty miles to go to Gu'an City!

After running a full 160 miles in two days, her bones seemed to be falling apart.

But she had to rush to Gu'an City today, and it was already the next day.

General Lin may have arrived in Gu'an City by now, if he leaves for the capital tomorrow morning, it will be troublesome!
She rested by the stream for a while, then put on the bamboo hat, untied the reins, and planned to run to Gu'an City in one breath.

Almost instantly, a large group of horses rushed down from the nearby hillside!
The deafening sound of horseshoes resounded in Lin Tianen's ears.

The riders were all men, and all of them had weapons in their hands, some were clubs, some were broadswords, and some were holding a spear!
Those people didn't seem to expect that there were people by the water, so they couldn't hold back their horses for a while, and rushed past her roaring.

Lin Tianen hurriedly lowered her head and tightened her bamboo hat, wondering why she didn't hear anything.

She didn't understand until she found that there were very few spring grasses on the land under her feet.

The hillside over there is facing the sun, and the spring grass is lush, which must have hidden the sound of horseshoes, but the area from the top of the hillside to the water's edge is all yellow land.

It was dusty for a while.

The rein in Lin Tianen's hand became tighter and tighter, because she had already noticed that the speed of the horses passing by her was slowing down.

In a short while, more than a dozen horses stopped near her, and the sound of drinking water from the group of horses could be heard not far away.

Lin Tianen lowered his head, and glanced around him. Except for the horse's legs, it seemed that those who stayed by her side were all looking at her.

"Little brother, where are you going?" A rough voice asked.

With a hoarse voice, Lin Tianen replied nervously, "Go...to find my father in Gu'an."

"Oh?" Another slightly shrill voice said, "What does your father do?"

Lin Tianen had a lot of thoughts, these people were dressed in disorder, their accents were different, and with so many horses, they were either horse dealers or horse thieves.

But whose horse dealer would bring so many weapons?

"My father is a petty official in Gu'an. My mother asked me to find him!" The teenage boy was already changing his voice, so Lin Tianen deliberately lowered his voice without being suspected.

It's just that the accent can't be changed, so she can only speak as vaguely as possible.

The man with the rough voice said again, "I really rarely see people during the day, you brat is very brave!"

Lin Tianen was startled, what this man said had a lot of meaning.

Now she is 100% sure that these people around are horse thieves!

Because Lin Tianen heard from Ting Lan that her family fell into ruins because of horse thieves, so she became a maidservant as a last resort.

Those horse thieves don't go out much during the day, and they plunder at dusk, so that people in the village won't chase them at the risk of darkness!

No wonder she hasn't seen any people for quite a while, it turns out that these people have a bad reputation, so the common people are hiding!
Why didn't she inquire about such an important matter?
Lin Tianen's thoughts changed, and he deliberately pretended to be proud, "My mother said that a man must have courage."

"Hahahaha..." These words caused a lot of laughter. It sounded like there were at least a dozen people.
