The slope of this beach is very flat, less than 100 meters away from the abandoned town.
It looked like this town used to have more than a hundred households, but now it was empty, with grass growing on the roofs. He Lingchuan saw a trace on the doorpost of a certain house, which seemed to be...a water level?
I don’t know which year it was, but there was a flood in Xianling Lake and the town was washed away.
The disaster-stricken humans had no choice but to abandon the town.
He Lingchuan and Liandeng walked through the town towards the forest, but within a few steps they heard snorting.
The crocodile god was indeed right, there are horses here!
He Lingchuan grabbed two handfuls of tender grass from the ground, took out the wine bag from the storage ring, poured some wine on the grass, and said to the shadows in the woods: "Little darling, come here!"
This is fruit wine, less spicy and more fragrant. Even if you smell it, you will salivate, let alone the horses in the forest.
They were originally raised by humans, and they came out after smelling them. Seeing that He Lingchuan and the others did not mean any harm, they stretched their heads to reach for the grass in his hand.
Compared with the military horses of the supporting army, the fur of these horses is not smooth enough, and the legs are not long enough, but how can He Lingchuan have room to be picky?
He divided the grass and fed the two tallest and strongest horses, and then asked Liandeng: "Can you ride a bare horse?"
These horses probably escaped during the flood, not to mention they were saddled and didn't even have bits on them.
Liandeng grinned: "No big deal!"
He Lingchuan did not dare to feed the horses any more wine, fearing that their legs would become weak after drinking too much, so he fed them two apples and spoke a few gentle words to calm them down, and the horses became docile.
Everything went surprisingly smoothly.
Behind the town, the villagers had dug a mountain road long ago, and now it was covered with vine grass again. The two led their horses through the gravel road in the area, and then got back on their horses.

Pei Xinyong and Lu Yao rode side by side, with their respective subordinates behind them.
They had rendezvoused at Langmingdong and diverted from here to a branch road, preparing to pursue the officers and soldiers.
There are many side roads on the Xishan Road. Why do you think the officers and soldiers escaped from here? It's very simple. The tracks of vehicles on the sandy ground are clear and consistent. It is obvious that many carriages carrying heavy objects passed here not long ago.
