816: Chapter 810: Falling into a Ditch 816: Chapter 810: Falling into a Ditch But he didn’t dare to ask more questions and earnestly drove the carriage out of town.
He found an empty spot and stopped the carriage, then turned to ask, “Is this place all right?”
Searcy leaned back in the carriage and humd, “This will do.”
After saying this, he tossed so dry food and water to him, saying, “Eat quickly, then we continue the journey.”
Gui Yunxi took the food in surprise and exclaid, “We have to continue traveling?”
He looked around, originally planning to nap under this big tree.
He thought to himself that Searcy wouldn’t pay for a lodge, but maybe napping in the wilderness would be fine?
However, it turned out he had no intention of letting him rest.
Biting into the dry food, Gui Yunxi complained for a while, “Young Master Searcy, you got a whole night’s sleep inside the carriage, but I haven’t even dozed off.
I’m human, not an animal, I can’t endure driving all night like this, look at , my eyelids are fighting each other, if we keep going I’m afraid sothing bad will happen, and I might crash us into a ditch!”
While speaking, he forced his eyes open but couldn’t help closing them again.
Searcy chuckled, “Do you want to grant you a pill that will make your eyes close forever once they shut?”
Ah…?
Gui Yunxi shivered all over, frightened and quickly got down from the carriage with his food.
Better keep a distance from him, bla my own blabbering mouth.
After finishing the dry food, Gui Yunxi fetched so black beans to feed the horse, and Searcy on the carriage beca impatient again.
“Have you been dawdling all this ti just to let this beast dawdle as well?
If you cause any delay to my business, I will poison you all.”
Gui Yunxi bemoaned his fate and said, “Neither sleep nor food is allowed, even a beast can’t bear this tornt.
Why don’t you just gift us a pack of poison and kill us?
If it continues like this, if not poisoned, we’ll die of sheer exhaustion anyway.”
“Hm!” Searcy huffed from her nose, saying, “Just make this beast hurry up.”
They say there’s a thin line between genius and idiot, and though Searcy’s intelligence was off the charts, it didn’t an she knew everything.
She had been raised within the confines of a large compound and never went out, so how could she know that even a beast could die of exhaustion?
“Better not play tricks on ,” Searcy threatened.
The overworked Gui Yunxi nodded repeatedly.
He wanted to tell her that this tired carriage couldn’t catch up with those on horseback traveling light, but after hesitating again and again, he still didn’t dare.
After all, he started and stopped on her command; if they couldn’t catch up, it’d served them right.
Thus, they traveled for another half day, and by evening she still didn’t let him rest, comfortably sleeping in the carriage herself.
Gui Yunxi stopped the carriage by the roadside, hoping to search her for an antidote while she slept, but just as he parked the carriage and was about to act, she woke up.
Searcy coldly stared at the unruly coachman, stating flatly, “Do you want to die?”
“I want to live, want to live!” Gui Yunxi hurriedly said, “I urgently need to relieve myself.”
“Hm!” Searcy snorted coldly and closed her eyes to continue sleeping.
Gui Yunxi got the horse moving again, the beast nearly dead from exhaustion, its pace getting slower.
Gui Yunxi almost died from fatigue, feeling he might be the first person to die from it.
His eyelids kept fighting, so that midday prediction sadly ca true soon enough.
Exhausted, the horse foad at the mouth and fell into a ditch, convulsing, and the carriage also toppled into the ditch.
The cold water soaked him, instantly dispelling all drowsiness.
Searcy, furious, her eyes blazing with fire, staring at Gui Yunxi as if ready to eat him.
“You really dared to drive the carriage into a ditch?”
