Uma raised his sore arm to touch her head, but even the slightest movement woke her up. Aya raised her head and saw the excited leaves falling behind the unshaven face.
"You're awake, you're awake! Do you know that weakness means you will die without them? Do you know that you almost became a puppet?"
She was angry, annoyed, resentful, and hated herself for being so useless and unable to do anything to help. While beating his arm, she hugged him and cried bitterly.
Uma had never seen her collapse like this before. He could only gently pat her back to comfort her, and then said over and over again that I was wrong and I would never do it again.
After crying for an unknown amount of time, Aya stabilized her emotions. With tears in her eyes, she watched him caressing his stubbled face: "Uma, let's leave here. It's too dangerous here... I don't want to lose you."
"Leave? Where are we going?" Uma has made a lot of efforts to stay here, and at the same time he has offended many people. He will inevitably use ruthless means when doing things. This time, what happened to the high priest also made him very scared.
Yes, where can they go? The two of them looked a little confused, but as long as they were not here, they would be safe.
At this time, there was a knock on the door. Su Yining walked in with a smile, holding a tray in his hand. Seeing that Wu Ma had woken up, he joked: "Brother Wu just woke up and made sister-in-law cry? Sister-in-law, do you want me to beat him up?"
Do you want to vent your anger?"
Aya's delicate face was still stained with tears. After hearing this, she broke down in tears and laughed. She suddenly thought of the scene where her husband was beaten just now, which was both funny and distressing.
"Brother Ning, thank you very much. After what happened this time, I have to think carefully about where your sister-in-law and I will end up. Hey!" Now I have to think about it with a family.
Su Yining did not mention giving him any advice but asked with a smile: "Is there any ideal place? I think Qi'er is not young anymore and it's time to enroll in school."
Children are always the biggest concern of parents. Many children like them have no choice but to live a good life. Who doesn’t want to live a good life?
Speaking of the child, the two of them had to adjust their thoughts. Is it a penny to be a hero? This is not a joke. When Tang San's brothers ran out of money, they could only live in a ruined temple and go to the dock to fight against sacks.
What? Go to work as a guard for a wealthy family? People don't trust you at all. Rich people are afraid of attracting wolves into their homes, so they are very wary of people with strong martial arts skills.
"Brother Wu, why don't you come with me to my house when things are over? I've opened a store in the capital and I'm short of manpower. I also know a few good teachers in the school. You don't have to worry about Qi'er."
She was playing with the things on the tray, and her words seemed like small talk, but it did make them feel a little shaken. What business could they do if they went there?
Uma didn't say whether to go or not. He just said tiredly that we would wait until then.
"Okay, brother, I am not a saint or a Bodhisattva. You have to work when you go to my place. Don't think that you will enjoy happiness just because you go there." She teased in a pretense of joking. Of course the city lord who is highly skilled in martial arts has something to do.
!
The next day.
Su Yining and others were finally ready to leave for the capital of Nanqing. Wu Ma had recovered well these days and saw them off personally.
"Brother, please go back. We will meet again soon."
The high priest left it to Uma to deal with. As for life or death, it depends on God.
Wu Qi is also recovering well and can already sit up. As long as he insists on taking medicinal baths every day, he will have a chance to recover and stand up and walk on his own.
They still have too much to do to stay here forever.
"Brother Ning, when you get this letter, just say it was introduced by me. Then they will take you to the election meeting. Whether you can succeed or not depends entirely on you."
Things about the Saint have been very secretive for so many years. Except for the news that the Saint was missing many years ago, there is no other news.
Every year during the parade to pray for blessings, the person is so tightly covered with a scarf that his face cannot be seen clearly. Only his indifferent eyes are eye-catching, as if they can see through your heart.
"Okay! Brother, please think more about what I said. It will definitely be earth-shattering when I come back!" Before leaving, she went to Xiaoyaoju again.
After confirming that the three brothers were still alive and doing well, she left with peace of mind. She only hoped that they could hold on until she returned.
After a simple farewell, the group of people drove the carriage slowly towards the capital. Wu Ma looked at their leaving figures and felt a little reluctant, and at the same time he also noticed that they were unusual.
They could be said to be frightened along the way, fearing that something unexpected would happen along the way. After all, the sphere of influence of the remnants of the previous dynasty was here.
"Master, there is a bamboo forest ahead where you can take a short rest." They don't need to rest, but the horses can't. They need time to eat and replenish water.
Su Yining looked up at the bamboo forest. Just like what was said in martial arts dramas, it was quiet, desolate, mysterious, and had an inexplicable murderous aura.
Several scenes of ambush from all sides flashed through my mind...
"Okay, let's take a rest." She greeted everyone and started to set up camp. During this time, Bing'er fully adapted to the logistics work, setting up pots and cooking rice.
Some secret guards expanded the scope of their investigation to prevent someone from ambush.
When they left, everything was so peaceful, without any crisis, and they finally arrived at the capital of Nanqing without any danger.
Even before I saw the gate of the capital, I was frightened by the sight in front of me.
It was visually estimated that there were thousands of carriages lining up to enter the city in an orderly manner. They were all businessmen coming from various places, and even blond and blue-eyed foreigners were seen.
Su Yining felt that this world was really magical. They had gone through nine or eighty-one hardships here, but these people acted very relaxed, as if they were here to travel.
"These people should be businessmen from Fenghua Country. The two countries have been on good terms all year round and have established special trade routes." Leng Yi seemed to notice her confusion and explained.
Su Yining pinched the center of his eyebrows and said speechlessly: "Are you just going to rob us?"
"This problem has existed for hundreds of years, and I can't explain it clearly for a while." Listening to their chat, Li Chuan became more and more silent, and his eyes kept looking at the city gate in the distance.
Judging from this speed, we might not be able to enter the city tonight. The business travelers nearby have become accustomed to it, and one by one they have begun to set up camp and set up pots and cook meals.
"Let's also get ready to eat something. There is a tough battle to be fought tomorrow. By the way, it seems that the carriage will be searched when entering the city. You should put everything away." She was referring to the repeating crossbows and binoculars that were given to the secret guards.
"Yes! Don't worry, we will put it away." At this time, they were also driving seven or eight donkey carts, and the boxes on them were all kinds of daily necessities that could be conveniently disguised.
