"There will be time." Su Wanning patted Zhan Lingfeng on the shoulder.

After breakfast, Su Wanning tied up the sandbag again and prepared to train with the exile team later.

Suddenly I remembered that Bai Ye said he wanted to give her a surprise last night, but I didn’t know what it was.

Soon the exile team began to set off, and the exile officials urged the people in the team to get up and set off.

Logically speaking, after being exiled for such a long time, he should be familiar with the temper of the officials. Why would anyone want to be whipped by the officials?

Just as I was thinking this, someone in front suddenly screamed.

“Dead…someone is dead…”

“Mother…Mother…”

The voice sounded familiar, Su Wanning walked forward and looked over, and saw Zhan Yirou sitting beside her, holding Zhan Yiwei.

It was obvious that the dead person was Shen Zhiyi. Finally, Peng Hai took a look and put the blame on the nearby bandits.

The bodies were buried nearby.

The team walked a short distance and connected this matter with Bai Ye's words about giving her a surprise.

I think it was probably her who did this.

Looking at the carriage following the exile team in front, she always felt that the inexplicable words he said to her yesterday had some hidden meaning.

Zhan Beiwang saw Su Wanning walking in a daze, so he reached out and patted her shoulder. "Pay attention when you walk, and watch your step."

Su Wanning staggered forward, but fortunately Zhan Beiwang was quick enough to hold her up.

It seems that you really can't think while walking.

The exile team walked and stopped, and soon arrived at the next town. Seeing that the streets were filled with ragged people, they wanted to sell food at a low price as before, but when they thought of Li Jingyu in the team, they finally gave up the idea.

He is a member of the royal family and he doesn't care about the lives of the people. Why should she care so much?

Even after resting in the city for two days, Su Wanning did not go out for a walk. Firstly, it goes without saying that even if there is food in the whole city, it will be expensive. Secondly, she was afraid to see the people on the roadside and couldn't bear it.

After leaving the city, some refugees saw the carriages in the team and wanted to go forward, but they were all dealt with by the guards brought by Li Jingyu.

Seeing that the guards killed people without blinking an eye, the others also gave up.

Turn your attention to the oxcart behind the exile group.

"Please give me some food, kind people."

"Please, give me a bite to eat."

Some people knelt down to beg, while others reached out to the ox cart.

Zhan Yiran took out his two swords and stood on the other side of the ox cart. "We don't have any extra food. If you get any closer, my sword will kill you."

Those refugees saw that it was a woman and didn't listen at all. Seeing this, Zhan Yiran drew his sword and chopped the hand of the person closest to her.

The man screamed, and everyone around him stopped what they were doing and took a step back. "Next time, it won't just be the arm that's cut."

Su Wanning did not miss the sinister look in the eyes of the man who was chopped.

They had driven the refugees away this time, but what about next time? The refugees ahead would be no less numerous than they were now. If a large group of them swarmed forward, how could they possibly handle them?

Thinking of this, Su Wanning untied the sandbags on her legs, sat directly on the ox cart, and took out the instruction manual of the rechargeable logging saw and began to study it again.

You can learn martial arts at any time, but your life is the most important thing now.

After a quarter of an hour, I understood the instructions, and now the most important thing is the experiment.

During the lunch break, Su Wanning took Zhan Beiwang for a walk into the woods and let Zhan Beiwang stand there to keep watch.

She walked further into the woods, looked around, took out the electric saw, and started sawing in the middle of a small tree according to the instructions.

I was not very skilled at it at first, but after knocking down two or three trees, I became completely proficient.

But when she heard a noise not far behind her, Su Wanning put away the chainsaw and walked outside.

Not long after I left, I ran into Zhan Beiwang, "Is anyone here?"

"No, I just saw that you had been gone for so long and was worried that something might happen to you."

"It's okay, let's go out." Su Wanning had just finished speaking when a voice sounded behind her.

"Stop, stop right there!" A breathless old man pointed at Su Wanning and shouted.

Su Wanning looked around and saw no one else around. Could it be her? She didn't seem to have done anything besides chopping down a few trees.

The old man walked up to Su Wanning, took a few breaths, and then said, "You... pay the money!"

Su Wanning pointed at herself and asked, "Why should I compensate you?"

The old man was already panting from running too fast, and now he was even more angry because of Su Wanning's words, his face flushed and his neck thick.

"Tree....You cut down my tree!"

Su Wanning was stunned for a moment, "Did you plant this tree?"

"This entire forest is planted by me! They are so neatly arranged. Can't you see that?!" the old man said angrily.

Su Wanning finally realized it. She had also noticed it when she was using the chainsaw just now, but she didn't think about it that way at the time.

"I'll compensate you for the silver you paid for those trees."

Seeing Su Wanning's good attitude in admitting her mistake, the old man finally felt better. He took out a certificate from his pocket and handed it to Su Wanning, "This is the certificate for my tree planting. These trees are all sold to the capital for the viewing of wealthy families. When they grow up, each tree will be worth dozens of taels. Although the ones we cut down are small, they have been growing for two years. I will compensate you at least ten taels for each tree."

Su Wanning thought about it and realized that she had probably cut down about five trees, which meant fifty taels.

As I put my hand into the cloth bag, I suddenly thought of the ox cart.

"Old man, why don't I give you the ox cart as compensation?"

The old man agreed without hesitation, "Of course, you can, but the ox cart is only worth about twelve taels at most. You still have to exchange the rest for money."

Su Wanning nodded and changed the remaining dozens of taels into silver notes and handed them to the old man.

"The ox cart is on the side of the road. Would you like to drive it with us?"

The old man thought for a moment and shook his head. "There are refugees outside. Drive the ox cart to the small road in the east. I'll wait for you there."

When she stopped to rest before, she remembered that there was a small path leading to the east.

"Okay, then we'll send you back now."

The old man nodded and said, "Don't cheat."

Su Wanning responded with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't cheat."

After all, without the ox cart, they would attract less attention when they continued their journey south.

This is also the reason why she wanted to mortgage the ox cart to the old man.

When Su Wanning and the other person drove the ox cart to the end of the path, they saw a fenced yard with a huge tree in the yard and a simple shed on the tree.

You should be able to see the entire forest from above.

Then when she took the chainsaw from the space and when she put it back into the space, the old man saw it.

The old man looked at Su Wanning, who was looking at the shed on the tree with a look of panic on her face, and smiled, "Are the things on this ox cart what you don't want?"

Zhan Beiwang nodded slightly, "These are all for you."

The old man led the cow into the yard and said, "I'll consider this as hush money."
