Song Qian glanced at Song Jing, then shifted his gaze to the dead horse on the ground. "If we don't do something, these horses will probably freeze to death. If they all die, we won't be able to go to Fengzhou."

Song Jingmo said, "Forget about going to Fengzhou, we can't even go to Zhongzhou."

Feng Yingying asked, "How about putting clothes on them?"

"Putting clothes on a horse?" Song He laughed. "Just like Song Jing said, if you really put clothes on a horse, you'll definitely be laughed at."

Feng Yingying glanced at Song He without saying anything. She looked at Song Yao and asked, "Ayao, what do you say?"

Song Yao pinched her brows and pursed her lips as she said, "It's so cold now. We're wearing lots of clothes, so it's okay. But these horses can't stand such low temperatures. If we don't do something, they won't be able to hold on for long. If all else fails, just cover them with quilts."

Song Jing wanted to say something, but after hearing what Song Yao said, he stopped laughing.

Afterwards, Song Zizhou, Song Jingmo and others went to the mule cart and got a few quilts. Since the horse's body was long, they covered the quilts on the horse's back and sewed the bottom with needles so that the horse's belly would not be exposed to the wind.

Finally, seeing that these horses were all wrapped in quilts, Song Jing, Song He, and Song Jingmo burst out laughing.

Song Jingmo said, "This is too funny, it looks like a cicada pupa, hahahaha."

Song He also laughed out loud, "It's really funny, hahahaha."

Feng Yingying said, "Who cares? As long as these horses don't freeze to death, that's all that matters! Okay, let's get on with our journey."

Because one of the horses was lost, the carriage could not be used, so everyone had to squeeze into other carriages.

However, a horse had died before, and everyone was crowded together. Now there are more people, and the carriage is even more crowded.

But there is nothing we can do about it, and we can only bear with it.

And so, everyone continued on their journey.

After walking for an entire afternoon, fortunately nothing happened to the horses and they arrived safely at their destination.

However, Song Yao did not see Song Qin.

She asked around, but no one had seen her.

Song Yao had no choice but to go find Shen Xianyi because Song Qin was riding in the same carriage with them.

But after asking Shen Xianyi, Shen Xianyi remembered that she did not see Song Qin in the carriage.

"What do you mean?" Song Yao frowned, looking extremely anxious.

Shen Xianyi explained, "Didn't a horse die on the way? We all got off at that time, and when we left, I didn't look closely at Song Qin. It wasn't until you asked me now that I remembered that I didn't see her in the carriage."

Hearing this, Song Yao's heart suddenly sank.

I immediately had a bad feeling.

Song Qin must have found an opportunity to leave, but she was unfamiliar with this place and the temperature was so low. As a girl walking around without any life skills, she would definitely not survive long.

Shen Xianyi said: "Why don't we send someone to look for her?"

Song Yao's face darkened. "Where can I find her? It's been so long. Even if I send someone to look for her, who knows where she went?"

Seeing the two of them chatting here and the situation was so tense, E Yu walked over and asked, "What are you two talking about? It's so serious."

Shen Xianyi said, "Song Qin is missing. She must have taken the opportunity to leave when the main force stopped earlier."

"What?" E Yu was shocked. "Why didn't you notice? Such a big living person, didn't you see it?"

Shen Xianyi's face was filled with helplessness. "No one noticed her. There were so many people there, and the carriage was packed with people. No one even realized whether she got on the carriage or not."

After E Yu heard what Shen Xianyi said, she looked at Song Yao and said, "Ayao, what should we do now?"

Song Yao glanced at E Yu and said, "There's nothing we can do. After all, it's been so long. Even if we send someone to look for her, we don't know which direction she went. We won't be able to find her at all, and it would be a waste of time."

"So are we just going to watch her leave? This world is a cannibalistic one. She's a girl, she doesn't know martial arts, and she has no food. She'll definitely die outside in a few days." E Yu said, "If Song Qian comes looking for us, he'll definitely think we abandoned Song Qin, and then he'll say we forced Song Qin to death."

Song Yao said, "Anyway, we don't have any other options right now. If we knew where she went, and if the distance was short, we could still look for her. But it's been so long, and no one knows where she went. If we send someone to look for her, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack."

She thought Song Qin's mood had returned to normal recently and she would no longer seek death. Now it seems that all this was Song Qin's pretense and she has not let go of the matter at all.

It was even possible that she had been thinking about how to leave them, otherwise she would not have left today after what happened.

Since she has already planned to leave, even if she is brought back, she will find a chance to leave.

Thinking of this, Song Yao was no longer so anxious and worried.

She said, "There's no need to look for her. She wanted to leave on her own. Even if Song Qian investigates later, it has nothing to do with us."

"Okay then," E Yu said. "I hope she can hold on to life. After all, a person's life cannot be lived only for their family. They should live more for themselves."

"Yeah." Song Yao nodded, "Where's Xiaobao?"

E Yu said, "Yingying is watching from the carriage. The tents haven't been set up yet, so we didn't let them get off. After all, it's very cold outside. Even though they are dressed warmly, they are still afraid of catching a cold."

"Yes, you are right." Song Yao said and walked away.

He just happened to meet Xiao Chi who was getting off the carriage.

That’s right, because the weather was too cold, he and Xie Cheng did not ride horses anymore, but took their carriage.

Song Yao deliberately avoided Xiao Chi, not wanting to meet him head-on. Xiao Chi also knew Song Yao's psychology, so he didn't say anything, but just watched her leave silently.

They rested here for one night, and the next day came quickly.

I thought there would be no sunshine this winter, but unexpectedly, the sun peeked through the clouds in the morning.

That’s good too, this way today won’t be so sad.

They had a quick bite to eat and then continued on their journey.

After walking for half a month, we finally arrived in Zhongzhou.

This time, the same old rules were followed. A group of people drove a carriage out of the city, and only about ten people entered Zhongzhou City together.

Zhongzhou City is very big. Although the weather is cold now, there are still many people coming and going on the streets.

There are also many vendors hawking their wares on both sides of the street.

Seeing this prosperous scene, Song Yao and the others finally calmed down.
