Yizhou is south of Yanjing. They entered the city on the morning of the next day, had lunch and fed the horses at noon, rested for an hour, and then continued on their journey.

Xia Qingqing thought that since they had arrived in Yizhou, Linfeng Town must be not far away.

She guessed wrong.

No wonder Qingfeng was a little surprised when she said she was about to leave, and even took out a thick quilt from the cabinet in the carriage.

In addition, he bought a lot of food and put it in the carriage.

The fact is that once Xia Qingqing left Yizhou City, she felt like she was entering a mountain maze.

There are mountains upon mountains, stretching as far as the eye can see.

The kidnappers kidnapped people here and there is no way they can escape. It’s chilling to think about it.

"Qingfeng, when are we going to get there? It's almost dark."

Qingfeng turned around and said, "We have to stay in the mountains tonight, so we won't make it. At our speed, we'll be lucky if we can arrive by tomorrow evening."

"What?" Mulan's eyes widened. She grabbed Qingfeng and asked, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Didn't you know that the boss is pregnant? How can you live outside?"

"I told you," Qingfeng said a little aggrievedly, "but you didn't believe me. I thought the boss was in a hurry to go there. So you don't know this mountain?"

"What mountain? So mysterious?" Mulan asked impatiently.

"Jiulong Mountain," Qingfeng explained, looking into the distance, "is the largest mountain in Daxia. To reach it, you have to go through this winding mountain road. Linfeng Town is located inside it, and there is only one road."

"It's too far. No one wants to go there, right?" Mulan said. Qingfeng's face suddenly darkened, and he stiffened his neck and said, "I want to go, but I can't. People in Qingfeng Town look at bloodlines."

"What? We are all of dragon blood?" Mulan laughed and teased Qingfeng so much that he was speechless.

Xia Qingqing heard them bickering and said, "Let's find a cave or a safer place to rest and continue our journey tomorrow."

After hearing this, the two people in the carriage immediately agreed and started looking.

Soon, they found a very safe cave. Qingfeng tied the horse to a crooked tree and entered the cave together.

This cave is a dead end, but it is not small and is located in the air, so there is no need to worry about any dangerous animals climbing up.

Xia Qingqing took a quick look and asked them to collect firewood. When they came back, they saw a lot of things placed in the cave.

"Boss, did you get so many things by yourself?" Qingfeng took a look and reminded him, "Next time, call me and I'll do it for you."

"It's a handy thing."

"What is this?" Mulan pointed at the strange object on the ground, which looked a bit like a tent.

Xia Qingqing said, "These are three small tents. Just open them and put them here."

Mulan went forward and picked it up. She didn't know where she pressed the button, but the tent opened by itself. She screamed when she saw this magical scene.

"This is amazing."

Xia Qingqing smiled. How could Su Xi not be amazing if she did it herself? She was an amazing person herself.

She had made a lot of things during this period, and when they met, she moved them all into the space.

She didn't take anything with her.

Qingfeng lit a fire and started preparing dinner. Qingfeng bought a lot of things in town, including fish, chicken, some vegetables and pancakes.

It would be fine if he just ate some dry food, but there is a pregnant woman here, so he still needs to get enough nutrition.

"Let me cook."

Mulan took over the task and quickly prepared the meal.

I made a crucian carp soup, fried chicken pieces, and stir-fried vegetables. Although simple, it is nutritious.

The three of them had just started eating when they heard a rustling sound outside.

"Shhh."

Qingfeng became alert and the horses outside also started to neigh. Mulan immediately drew out her machete and protected Xia Qingqing behind her.

I saw Qingfeng bending over and jumping down, and suddenly his figure disappeared.

I only heard a "ouch" and saw the shadow lying on the ground wailing.

"Who are you? You're sneaking around." Qingfeng asked, and Mulan walked up and put the knife on the man's neck.

"Oh my God, don't kill me, I didn't do anything, I was just passing by..." Zhuzi was so scared that his body kept shaking. He didn't want to die yet.

"You're lying. How could you pass by a cave while passing by?" Mulan scolded.

Zhuzi held his head with both hands and dared not move, so he had to tell the truth.

"I just smelled the fragrance and came to take a look. I'm really hungry."

Mulan continued, "Why are you hungry? Is there a famine here?"

"Girl, girl, let me get up, I'll tell you everything."

Zhuzi was lying on the ground and his chest was hurting. He just hoped he could get up quickly.

“It’s not a famine, but it’s close.”

Qingfeng quickly lifted the person on the ground, took a closer look, and asked, "Pillar?"

Zhuzi spotted Qingfeng immediately and ran over excitedly to hug him, shouting, "Qingfeng, is it really you? You're back? You're really back."

Qingfeng's eyes were a little moist, and he said, "Yes, I'm back. Let's go to the cave to talk."

As soon as Zhuzi entered the cave, he saw the food laid out there and immediately swallowed his saliva.

"Eat first, and talk after you're full."

Zhuzi was wearing tattered clothes with patches on them. He was tall but as thin as a bamboo pole, and it seemed like he would break if the wind blew.

He was holding a bundle in his hand, which looked quite heavy.

The straw sandals on his feet had rotted away. Qingfeng gave Zhuzi some bread, which he ate up in no time.

He ate three or four in a row before slowing down. It was not until he burped that he realized he had eaten too much.

His face immediately turned red, and he said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I'm too hungry, I'm so sorry..."

"No problem," Xia Qingqing waved her hand and said, "Where are you coming from and where are you going?"

Zhuzi glanced at Xia Qingqing shyly, reached out and pulled Qingfeng's sleeve, and looked at him awkwardly.

Qingfeng introduced: "Zhuzi, this is my boss, Xia Qingqing. This is Miss Mulan."

"Boss?" Zhuzi was a little surprised and asked excitedly, "You are the young master of Linfeng Villa, how can you work for others?"

"Although the old owner is gone, the villa has been occupied by someone else, and Miss Qiu'er has broken off the engagement, you still have us. We can definitely stand up again."

Zhuzi's words made Xia Qingqing and Mulan's cheeks twitch.

This breeze is too miserable.

"What's going on with you?"

Qingfeng suddenly found that Zhuzi's movements were a little strange, and his face suddenly darkened when he saw the marks on his neck.
