62 Doing Something Good for No Reason
“That’s strange. Where is she? I clearly saw someone here just now.”
Those people could not see any sign of Su Ying after they got close.
“Did she run away? We can’t see anything in this sandstorm.”
“Bitch. Hurry up and pursue her.”
When Su Ying came out of the interspatial store, the sandstorm had already passed. She mounted her horse and continued to look for the missing people.
Just as the sky was about to turn dark, there was finally a response from the sensor.
After Su Ying identified the direction, she urged her horse in the direction where the sensor’s beeping was getting louder.
On the group’s side, Li Da only ordered the group to stop when it was close to midnight.
Aunt Zhao saw that the children had fallen asleep, so she did not carry them down from the carriage.
“I’ll use some dried meat to make porridge tonight. Everyone can just eat it with the dry food.” Everyone was exhausted from the long journey, so they hurriedly ate and went to rest.
Madam Sun alighted from the carriage. She had noticed that Su Ying wasn’t around since noon. Now that she had gotten off the carriage and looked around, Su Ying was indeed nowhere to be seen.
She squeezed next to Zhang Cuiniang. “Hey, widow. Where’s that demonic woman? Why don’t I see her?”
Zhang Cuiniang’s expression was somewhat unpleasant, but she didn’t flare up. “If you don’t know how to talk, then don’t open your mouth.” After she finished speaking, she ignored Madam Sun and turned around to help Hea Shouyi.
Madam Sun spat at her. “You’re just a widow. Why are you acting so high and mighty?”
Xiao Jin sat in the carriage, looking around his surroundings vigilantly.
“Mas… Master. Please have your dinner.”
A voice that sounded like a mosquito buzzing rang out from outside the carriage. Xiao Jin lowered his eyes and saw the shy Wang Furong standing there with a bowl of porridge.
Xiao Jin didn’t reach out to take it. He only said, “How’s your father?”
When she heard this, Wang Furong’s hand that was holding the bowl tightened. “He’s better, thanks to Master.”
“It’s all thanks to Mistress.” Xiao Jin corrected her indifferently. “Just take good care of your father. You don’t have to worry about anything else.”
Wang Furong held the bowl of porridge and stood there in a daze. “I’ll bring the porridge for Father after I send the porridge to you, Master.”
“Just put the porridge down.”
When Wang Furong heard him, she put the bowl down happily. She smiled shyly and said, “It’s cold at night. Master should eat it while it’s hot.” She left happily after speaking.
As soon as Wang Furong left, Lin Zhuyu walked over and picked up the bowl straightaway. “Master, this bowl of porridge has less meat. I’ll change it to a bowl with more meat” Before she had even finished speaking, she ran away with the bowl.
She ran to the campfire and almost bumped into Bai Shuang. “What are you doing? Why so reckless?” Bai Shuang had slowly accepted Lin Zhuyu after spending some time with her, but she was still a little wary of her because of her previous identity.
Lin Zhuyu pursed her lips and took a sip of the porridge in her hand. “Nothing much. I just came to tell you that Master doesn’t have any porridge yet.” As for Wang Furong’s porridge, Lin Zhuyu would consume it herself. She must be up to no good, otherwise, she wouldn’t do something good for no reason.
“I was just about to bring it to Master.” Bai Shuang scooped out the porridge and brought it to Xiao Jin.
“Master, please have your dinner.”
Xiao Jin nodded and motioned for her to put the porridge down.
After Bai Shuang put down the porridge, she was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, she hesitated for a moment before she said, “Master, when will Mistress come back?”
Xiao Jin pursed his lips slightly and looked at his crippled legs with dark, gloomy eyes. “She should come back tomorrow at the earliest.”
“Mm-hmm. Mistress is so powerful. She will definitely return safely.”
Xiao Jin’s brows knitted even more tightly.
Meanwhile, Su Ying saw that the sensor’s beeping was getting stronger and stronger, and she sped up and rushed forward.
From afar, she could see a pack of wild wolves surrounding a large boulder.
Howl…
Perhaps sensing the presence of the pack of wolves, the horse Su Ying was on stopped anxiously and stomped back and forth on the spot, no longer moving forward.
Su Ying stroked the horse’s neck and soothed it. “What’s there to be afraid of? I’m here.”
She looked at the pack of wolves not far away and her eyes lit up. She nudged the horse gently. The horse seemed to feel the calmness emanating from her body and gradually calmed down. It then slowly walked over.
Howl!
After Su Ying got closer, she realized that the wolves were surrounding the person under the boulder and attacking him.
At this point, Jiang Yang was already covered in blood. He clenched his teeth and held a wooden stick in his hand to support himself as he stood guard over a figure. The wolves did not attack in a group but instead pounced on him from time to time to bite him.
Wolf packs were good at fighting prolonged battles. Their numbers were enough to exhaust the other party to death. Whenever people were besieged by packs of wolves, few people could escape.
Su Ying quickly dismounted and slowly approached the pack of wolves from behind.
The wolves sensed Su Ying’s presence and slowly turned to look at her. Pairs of green eyes glowed with a cold, sinister light in the dark.
Howl!
Su Ying took out her electric baton and charged toward the pack of wolves before her eyes.
Those wild wolves had been staring at her warily. When they saw her charging at them, they crouched down and leaped at her, trying to bite her at the same time.
The long baton in Su Ying’s hand danced in the sandstorm and carved out the shape of a sword, which shot out at the wild wolves. The electric currents landed on them and sent their whole bodies into convulsions.
In the blink of an eye, several wolves fell under the might of the electric baton.
The alpha wolf realized that Su Ying was more difficult to deal with, so it led the other wolves that were surrounding Jiang Yang to charge at Su Ying instead.
Su Ying extended the electric baton. When the pack of wolves attacked again, she waved it even more rapidly. One after another, the wolves fell, but even so, the remaining wolves didn’t seem to have any intention of retreating. They kept pouncing on Su Ying repeatedly, and when at last the alpha wolf fell, the rest of the pack started to panic.
Su Ying looked at them icily. “It’s not too late to run now.”
The rest of the wolves looked at their leader which had fallen and backed off. After taking a few steps back, they turned tail and fled.
Su Ying put away the electric baton and quickly walked up to Jiang Yang. The moment he saw Su Ying walking over, Jiang Yang’s body, which he had been strenuously propping up, collapsed suddenly.
Su Ying rushed forward to support him. His body was covered in bite marks of various sizes. Thankfully, although his pulse was weak, it was still stable. He collapsed probably because he did not have enough strength left.
Su Ying looked behind Jiang Yang. There was another person lying there. It must be the person he was looking for, Chu Yun.
She went forward to check on Chu Yun’s condition. As soon as she felt his pulse, she found that his body was frighteningly hot. His breathing was also very weak. It seemed that he was quite sick.
After the examination, she determined that Chu Yun’s lung infection was the reason for his high fever. If Su Ying had come a little later, he would have lost his life here.
Both men weren’t in good condition, so Su Ying had to go into the interspatial store to get the appropriate medicine to treat them.
After injecting Chu Yun with the medicine and treating Jiang Yang’s injuries, Su Ying turned around to look at the wolves that had been electric-shocked into unconsciousness.
She was going to process these wolves and store them in the interspatial store, but after some thought, she had another idea.
She took out ring locks from her interspatial store and put it on the wolves’ necks. Then she took out a rope and strung all the wolves into one line.
After doing all this, she looked at the two unconscious men behind her and hauled them up onto the back of the horse. She found the horse that Jiang Yang had secured nearby and got on it. She immediately pressed the switch in her hand and the beeping sound of the ring locks rang out. Following this, the unconscious wolves woke up gradually.
