Chapter 279 Starting Over
Fengmei first crawled on the ground and listened, then stood up to help the young lady look for it. Wang Jinyi didn't know if she had just experienced a fight, but now her whole body was stiff, and she could feel a chill emanating from her heart, and her upper and lower teeth were knocking against each other unconsciously.
When Fengmei found the thing and gave it to the young lady, she discovered that Wang Jinyi was shaking all over. She quickly hugged the young lady and jumped on the horse, holding the young lady tightly in her arms, whipped the horse, and headed back towards the county town.
The city gate shall not be closed at night, this is clearly stipulated by the law, unless there is a war or an important event in the court. Feng Mei naturally knew this. The master and servant stopped a few dozen meters away from the city gate, waiting for the city to be opened tomorrow, and then set out again from the South Gate and chased the Wang family convoy along the original route.
Feng Mei got off the horse and took the young lady off the horse, observing her carefully. The young lady was no longer as scared as before, her whole body was no longer trembling, and Wang Jinyi hugged her tightly.
The young lady's face was pale under the moonlight, but her eyes were still bright. She was not like an ordinary child who would be frightened after such an incident.
Feng Mei squatted in front of the young lady, took out a towel from her bag and wiped her face and hands, and asked softly:
"Miss, what just happened?"
Seeing Wang Jinyi's body stiff and difficulty speaking, Feng Mei knew that as a little girl who never left the house, it was very brave of her to be able to do this today.
She wiped the young lady's hands and patted her back over and over again, then took out the dagger from the young lady's waist and looked at it.
It turned out that the dagger was covered in blood. It turned out that the young lady had killed a robber with her own hands!
Fengmei lifted up the young lady's arms to check, and shook them towards the moonlight. The bloodstains on her clothes were clearly visible. Fengmei was extremely shocked, but she pretended to be calm and comforted the young lady.
"Miss, don't be afraid. We have escaped death. Some people say that this will lead to happiness in the future. Miss, I am by your side. This kind of thing will never happen again. I promise you!"
Wang Jinyi really wanted to tell Feng Mei that no one had expected what would happen today. No one expected that they would encounter robbers just ten miles out of the city. It showed that Xunnan County was too unsafe!
Wang Jinyi wanted to go into the city to remind Chen Wenxiao to pay attention to safety in the future and never leave the city at night.
Thousands of words weighed on Wang Jinyi's heart. Not only could she not open her mouth, but her teeth and heart were trembling.
The stars were dotted under the watery autumn sky, but Wang Jinyi had no time to look at them. She just felt cold all over. Fengmei took the blanket off the horse's back and wanted to wrap it around the young lady to keep her warmer. As soon as she raised the blanket, Wang Jinyi jumped away.
Fengmei seemed puzzled, but suddenly she understood that the young lady had a trauma in her heart and was still afraid.
This was pulled off a dead person, and the lady resisted in her heart.
Fengmei took out a cloak from the bag on the horse's back and wrapped it around the young lady, then hugged the young lady and jumped lightly onto the horse's back.
Wang Jinyi leaned in Feng Mei's arms, and the master and servant stood outside the city gate, with their eyes open, waiting quietly to enter the city.
At daybreak, the officers and soldiers patrolling on the city wall saw from afar that no more than 20 meters outside the city wall, there were two young men sitting on two horses, leaning against each other, waiting for the city gate to open.
Slowly, pedestrians in groups of three or four came to the city gate from far away. Wang Jinyi leaned against Feng Mei all night without feeling sleepy. Even the scene of fighting with the robbers kept flashing in his mind...
No matter how she tried to comfort herself, every thrilling scene kept flashing back in her mind. Wang Jinyi knew that this was a stress response. As long as she was mentally strong, she would not be affected. After all, she was not really 9 years old.
How can an adult be so inexperienced! If it weren't for my soul that traveled through time and space when I was fighting with the robbers last night, I would have died on the way.
As the sky brightened, more and more people lined up at the city gate to enter the city, and the master and servant were finally lost in the crowd.
Wang Jinyi slowly calmed down, blinked tiredly, his eyelids were too heavy to lift, and he slowly lowered his head and dozed off close to Feng Mei.
Feng Mei had experienced a fight on the official road yesterday, and was still thinking about the rampant robbers in Xunnan County. If the post station ten miles outside the city was not attacked, it must be the robbers' accomplices...
The sky finally brightened and the city gates opened.
The master and servant entered the city again. Feng Mei wanted to take the young lady back to Taisheng Rice Shop to rest for two days before continuing on their journey, but Wang Jinyi instructed in a hoarse voice:
"Go and tell Chen Wenxiao that the road is dangerous and tell him not to leave the county at night!"
Feng Mei led the horse to the rice shop, and Tyson had actually put up the door. The clerk from the shop next door told the two that Wen Xiao had just left the shop after delivering rice to a customer.
Wang Jinyi took out a piece of paper and pen and wrote a short message from his backpack and asked the waiter to pass it on.
After what happened last night, Wang Jinyi no longer wanted to travel overnight and urged Fengmei to mount her horse and leave the city.
Yes! The road is not safe at night.
The master and servant mounted their horses and set out from the south gate again, chasing the Wang family convoy along the same route they came.
After daybreak, Feng Mei carefully observed and found some bloodstains on the young lady's clothes. Fortunately, it was a black coat, so passers-by would find it difficult to notice any clues.
The young lady's condition seemed to have recovered. She was no longer as frightened as last night. At least she was still comfortable riding on the horse alone and did not need any extra comfort. Fengmei was filled with great admiration for her. The young lady was really brave!
After leaving the city, Wang Jinyi found his voice again and could speak normally: "We have to speed up, otherwise we won't be able to catch up with the convoy at home!"
Feng Mei was surprised that the young lady had prepared herself mentally after just one night. This self-regulation ability was simply amazing!
But if you think about it, it seems reasonable. There is almost nothing strange that cannot be satisfactorily explained by the young lady.
The young lady is beyond ordinary people, like a monster, and she is also said to be a literary monster. She can tell her teammates that Wang Jinyi is just a little inexplicable! She is weird!
The sun is shining brightly, the sky is high and the clouds are light. Last night's bad mood seems to have been cleared away like dark clouds, and the haze has dissipated.
Wang Jinyi was in a hurry to get on with her journey. She originally wanted to take a shortcut to catch up with the Wang family convoy, but this time both of them were extra careful.
Seeing the young lady bowing her head and not saying anything, Feng Mei asked, "Miss, should we go faster?"
Wang Jinyi came back to his senses, looked up at the sky, and became even more concerned about the journey. He hoped that the two of them could successfully catch up with the convoy and have a safe journey.
Not only can I not tell anyone about this experience, I have to grit my teeth and get through it. I really need to speed up so that others will find out.
If you are so naughty as to insist on coming to Xunnan County to open the business in person, you will have to endure this thrill by yourself!
Wang Jinyi immediately whipped the horse and unknowingly ran faster than Fengmei. Fengmei followed the young lady's horse closely, not daring to relax at all, for fear that the young lady would be stimulated and run away like crazy!
In the silent forest, the master and servant ran at full speed, their horsetails almost swung into a straight line, and they ran more than 200 miles of mountain roads in just one day.
