Chapter 555: 555: Moving the Entire Family (Part 1)
Yixuan walked into his brothers’ cabin, his mind echoing Yun Ge’s words, "Third Brother... has gone missing, he later fled into the mountains, still not knowing how much hardship he has to endure." He took a few of Third Brother’s clothes, and after much deliberation, he packed the luggage for his eldest and fourth brother, and by the ti everything was ready, it was already evening.
Suddenly, the sound of a galloping horse ca from afar, and it seed that not much ti had passed before the sound of hooves stord into Liang’s courtyard.
The man on the horse was Haoming, who had returned alone.
......
"Baobao, don’t worry. The journey ahead is long and rugged. You must take good care of yourself. Bring enough money and try to stay in inns at night. Don’t make it tough on yourself, alright?"
Dong Huiying was saying goodbye to the mbers of the Dong family when Haoming, striding rapidly, rushed toward her.
"Haoming?"
She was stunned, then Haoming grabbed her wrist from behind and imdiately pulled her outside.
"What’s happened, what’s the matter?"
The mbers of the Dong family left behind looked at each other in confusion.
A few hours earlier...
After the eldest brother and Haoming had co down the mountain, they were about to buy a carriage when they saw a magnificent procession kicking up clouds of dust.
The procession was led by two tall, majestic horses, followed by dozens of brawny warriors with bare upper arms and Bone Knives strapped to their sides.
All these warriors were won, but they were taller and more rugged than the won of Dayuan, wearing very different attire as well.
This troop was escorting a carriage.
Upon seeing this troop, Zhi Chen felt a surge of anxiety. He imdiately grabbed Haoming and hid, even taking the horses they were riding and knocking them over. They pressed themselves against the horses, covering their mouths and noses to prevent them from making any noise that might give them away.
Fortunately, whether it was the Tiger King Dai Bai who occasionally road the mountains or these two horses, it seed that any animal kept near a young girl beca increasingly intelligent and understanding of human nature.
The majestic horses quietly lay in the bushes, and both Zhi Chen and Haoming held their breaths.
The troop ahead suddenly stopped.
In the middle of the carriage, a man with a pale face, very thin, no taller than about five and a half feet, was dressed extravagantly, truly adorned with gold and wearing jade. Just the gold chain around his neck seed heavy enough to weigh over ten pounds.
This man was none other than Pei Yu, whom He Su had once despised!
Pei Yu stepped off the carriage and went to the trees beside the road to relieve himself. When he returned, he looked towards Taihang Town, his eyes filling with a shade of resentnt.
Then, a robust woman on all fours knelt on the ground, using her back as a footstool for Pei Yu.
Pei Yu stepped on the woman’s body to get back into the carriage, and soon after, the troop set off again, headed directly for Taihang Town!
Only after the troop had left did Zhi Chen, hidden in the bushes, stand up. He gazed at the departing troop, his expression changing constantly, as if pondering sothing.
Late, he tore a strip of cloth from his clothing and bit his finger to write on it hurriedly.
Finally, he stuffed the cloth strip into Haoming’s chest.
"Haoming! Give this to Baobao! I’m going to buy the carriage now, and we’ll et at the village entrance. We can’t delay a mont!"
Haoming stood still for a mont, then nodded firmly, mounted his horse, and looked back at his eldest brother with concern before leaving... "Be careful!"
The eldest brother nodded, "Go!"
With a crack of the whips, the two brothers galloped off in separate directions.
Zhi Chen did not dare go into the town but instead found a man outside the town. After spending a considerable sum and giving the man several benefits, he managed to have the man procure a carriage for him.
