Don't worry about traveling through time, she has an all-powerful senior sister to help her

He was hesitant, but Shen Lingzhu would not wait. After the people who entered the house bought things and they returned to the inn to eat, she said, "Just now, a few bulk merchants basically explained the layout of the first entrance of the Lu family.

There don't seem to be many men in the Lu family's front yard, which doesn't match the number of people Lu Er bought."

This was of course all thanks to Mr. Chi's careful guidance at the dinner table.

"Well, the gatekeeper of the Lu family wears the same clothes as Shi Wu, and from the way he walks, you can tell he's a martial artist.

"It's a pity I didn't dare go in and investigate, for fear of alerting the enemy." Shen Chi knew his own strength. He wouldn't be afraid of beating three or four ordinary people, but he wasn't sure if he could defeat someone with real kung fu skills. If the other side had several such people, he wouldn't have any chance of winning.

Shen Lingzhu didn't dare let him in. "I'll stay. Can you borrow a fast horse to go to Xuanfu to find Mr. Han? You can also take his jade with you."

Shen Chi thought for a moment. He would not leave his daughter alone so close to Shi Wu: "We can't borrow it here. We should leave early tomorrow morning and find someone to buy a horse near the next post station.

Think about it, why did he come here in person? It must be that someone or something in this inn attracted him."

"What if he becomes alert and leaves? I can still see where he goes." Shen Lingzhu had to consider the worst case scenario.

But how could Shen Chi agree to this and demand that she leave? Because in his opinion, Shi Wulang, now and in the future, would not dare to provoke his family.

They didn't even have time to escape.

Shen Lingzhu couldn't argue with his father, and didn't want to attract attention, so he had to take a car and leave with them the next day.

But unexpectedly, the three bulk cargo traders also chose to set off, so as everyone walked along the way, Shen Chi could not walk too fast and leave them behind.

What was even more unexpected was that after they had walked more than 20 miles and were looking for a place sheltered from the wind to heat up their dry food, Shen Chi saw five people on horseback walking from a small path onto the official road.

Men all like to watch horses galloping, but unfortunately the five riders are wearing military uniforms, so most people on the road will not stare at them.

But Mr. Chi was an ordinary person. After taking a few more glances, he recognized that the person running away from him was Shi Wulang.

He turned around and wanted to pull the mule cart over to chase after him, but then he realized that he couldn't catch up, and he kicked the tree a few times in anger.

Shen Lingzhu, who had brought back the firewood, asked what had happened. Her mind raced, and she saw the other three bulk traders still lighting a fire. She whispered, "Dad, they want to enter Xuanfu."

"Ok?"

"You can't possibly go to some village and show off while wearing a soldier's uniform."

"They may also change midway just to make it easier to get on with their journey."

"Would you wear armor and walk on the road to make way for pedestrians and vehicles?"

"Uh, normally not."

"So, next we have to speed up and separate from several cargo traders."

"Can't catch up."

"The post station ahead is willing to rent horses for a little extra money."

Shen Chi thought about it carefully and finally made up his mind, so after lunch, he found an excuse to separate from the three bulk cargo traders.

However, the father and daughter had never expected that when they rented horses at the post station, they would see Shi Wu and others feeding the horses with high-quality hay in the stable at the back.

They are so brave that they are not afraid of being recognized.

Shen Chi looked at his daughter. Fortunately, she was wearing men's clothes and had a painted face so that even he couldn't recognize her.

And Shi Wu did not recognize Shen Chi who had changed out of his clothes from the day before, or rather, he could not stand outside at all. After whispering a few words to the people around him, he turned and walked towards the guest room.

"Dad, can you lead him away?" Shen Lingzhu whispered as the father and daughter walked towards a farther row of stables to pick a horse.

Shen Chi understood immediately: "What are you going to do?"

"Give the horse a laxative." Shen Lingzhu carried a lot of ready-made medicines made by her senior sister. When going out, it is good to prepare everything. These medicines can be used right away.

Shen Chi did not object. He turned around and whispered for a while with the guy who took him to pick the horse. Then the guy found the remaining people in the Shi family and said that the horse manure in the stable was about to be cleaned up, and asked them not to block the entrance and exit.

After several members of the Shi family looked at each other and talked, they walked towards the guest room where Shi Wu had gone without saying anything else.

When they could no longer be seen, Shen Lingzhu walked around and came to the trough of the five horses, and quickly sprinkled the pond medicine prepared in the bag into them.

Of course, she wouldn't let all five horses get the medicine, so she left two slots unfilled.

Although the effect of the medicine is slow, it can allow the horse to leave traces along the way.

As expected, when Shen Chi rented a horse and ran to Xuanfu first, Shen Lingzhu waited for a long time at the ordinary inn next door. He saw that Shi Wu and others had ridden their horses out of the inn for only a dozen feet when the drug effect on one horse took effect.

After walking another dozen feet, one horse after another had diarrhea and couldn't move forward. Several people realized that something was wrong, but Shen Lingzhu bet that they didn't dare to cause trouble for the post station.

And because the drug was too strong, the two men couldn't walk with the third horse, so they led the horses back to the post station to see a veterinarian.

But Shi Wu's young nephew was suspicious. "Uncle Wu, ask the people at the nearby coach house to check. There might be something wrong with the fodder at the post station."

The young man said, "Go back and ask them to exchange horses."

"Tenth brother, do you think it's still the same as before?" The young man glanced at him.

Shi Wu still had some sense. He said, "Did someone do something?"

The three of them looked at each other, and the two attendant guards also carefully checked the horses, "There are no needle holes or anything like that on the horses, so it can only be fodder.

But the horses were fed the same diet, and only two of them were pulling heavier, two were normal, and one was only slightly unwell.”

"It must be something mixed in the fodder.

"Uncle Wu, what do you think we should do?" The young man turned and looked towards the inn.

Shen Lingzhu, who was standing at the window, quickly looked away. After a moment, he looked up again and saw these people riding away on horseback.

She couldn't help but stand up and walk to the door to look. The five horses galloped for a while and then turned into a small road.

Shen Lingzhu thought for a moment and turned back to harness her own mule cart. She had to go and see what was going on, at least to know the approximate direction of the five people.

Unexpectedly, not long after she left the shop, a fast horse came galloping towards her from a distance. Shen Chi, who was on horseback, saw that it was her and quickly reined in the horse: "Where are you going?"

"They ran away." Shen Lingzhu pointed to the path ahead.

Shen Chi frowned and looked into the distance for a moment, but could no longer see anyone on the path. "No hurry, Mr. Han and his group are still four or five miles away from us, returning to the capital."

"That would be the best." This would prevent the reinforcements from disappearing without a trace. Shortly after she finished speaking, dozens of horsemen rushed over from the front of the official road.

The one leading the group was Mr. Han's guard. He asked about the situation, checked the horse manure on the ground, and then led the group in pursuit towards the path.

Shen Lingzhu was moved: "Dad, should we chase them? Those five people have only two bows and four barrels of arrows, and no other long-range weapons."

Shen Chi: "Are you worried that they'll slip away again?"

Shen Lingzhu nodded: "Yeah."

"It's unlikely this time. In the past, they would capture him alive, but now they don't care whether he's dead or alive.

But we can go and take a look, let's go." Shen Chi waved his hand, but the direction was the inn.

Shen Lingzhu: "Dad, are you kidding?"
