Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Although Madam Du was from an escort agency, because she had six older brothers, she didn’t need to practice martial arts to be an escort. So she only learned trace tracking and simple martial arts from her father.

She knew that she could not count on the women in the carriage. If she wanted to keep up with her benefactor, she could only rely on herself.

After a few days of torture, her body was already injured. Even after a night’s rest and this morning, she would not recover so quickly.

However, if they stayed in the village, they would be sitting on the mountain and eating nothing. They would not be able to leave even if they wanted to.

It was better to take advantage of the fact that she still had strength, and that her benefactor had not left for too long, to quickly catch up.

Even if their benefactor was unwilling to accept them, they could just fall far away. It was impossible that they had really eaten all their food and were robbed by the disaster victims, and their benefactor would not help them.

With this thought in mind, she hit it off with Lin Xu. She found the remaining carriage in the village and also brought the two crazy women with her.

They didn’t call her “Miss Tian” at the same time. After all, neither of them had the obligation to be responsible for the other.

They didn’t think that the woman was really stupid. She didn’t know why her nose was so sensitive, but she actually waited at the village entrance for them to appear.

She also said that if they didn’t take her with them, they wouldn’t be able to leave.

In the end, Madam Du was able to let Miss Tian get on the carriage because she took out a sharp knife and threatened that if she couldn’t leave, she would kill the horse and everyone would be trapped here.

Just like that, the group of people still set off together.

Miss Tian knew that she had thoroughly offended Madam Du and Lin Xu, so after getting into the car, she shrank into the innermost corner and did not say a word. She had been looking for a suitable opportunity to ease the

relationship with the two.

Just now, she thought that she had found a suitable opportunity, but she didn’t expect that her flattery would fail.

When Lin Xu heard Madam Du’s words, she said with a heavy heart, “Sister Du, if only I knew how to drive a carriage, you would be able to focus on identifying the traces. You wouldn’t have to walk with a horse and go through all this pain! ”

“Why don’t you drink some water, eat something, and take a rest before you leave? Let me try how to drive a carriage. I’ll help you with your worries.”

Madam Du had long been tired to the point that her waist and knees were sore. If she didn’t rely on her strength to support herself, she would not have been able to persist.

She was moved by Lin Xu’s words and wanted to stop as well, but she was also afraid that she would be left behind by her benefactor.

Just as she was in a dilemma, Madam Du inadvertently glanced at the ground and suddenly her expression changed.

She pulled the horse to a stop and stuffed the reins into Lin Xu’s hands, saying anxiously, “Take it.”

Then, she hurried to the front and squatted down to examine it carefully.

“Sister Du, what happened?”

Lin Xu was stunned and subconsciously grabbed the reins, but she did not receive any response.

“What’s wrong? Why did the carriage stop?”

Miss Tian noticed that the carriage had stopped. She looked out the window and couldn’t help but ask.

“Shut up, even if you can’t help, don’t bother me!”

Lin Xu saw that Madam Du had been looking down at the traces on the ground and guessed that there might be a problem with the traces used for tracking. She was also very anxious.

When she heard Miss Tian’s voice, she felt that it was particularly noisy. She changed her previous gentle image and scolded her coldly.

“What are you shouting for? Can’t you just ask?”

Miss Tian had been pampered at home. Although she had been obedient for a few days after the disaster, she immediately revealed her true colors after being rescued. She was someone who refused to suffer losses and immediately

yelled back at Lin Xu.

“Hmph, you can’t help with anything, and you still want to follow me shamelessly. What? If it doesn’t go your way, are you going to kill the horse and die with it?”

Lin Xu had been tolerating her for a long time, and now that she had exploded, she was on the verge of losing control.

“I’m shameless? We’ve all suffered together, and if you want to leave me behind and run away, you’re just leaving me in the lurch! I haven’t even flipped out, and you’re already stepping on my nose!”

Miss Tian’s sore spot had been stepped on, and she began to make a scene without a care.

She didn’t think that she had done anything wrong, and instead, she acted as if she was right.

“What are you arguing about? If you have the ability, go find your benefactor, don’t yell at me!”

Madam Du was annoyed by the noise and suddenly roared. Only then did the two people who were staring at each other shut their mouths, rolled their eyes at each other and turned their heads away.

Lin Xu alighted from the carriage and took two steps forward to put some distance between her and Miss Tian.

“Sister Du, did you see anything? Can’t you find the tire tracks left by Benefactor?”

She asked carefully, afraid to hear a definite answer.

“Yes, I… I lost him.”

Madam Du’s expression was very ugly.

She had confirmed it many times just now. The ruts that had followed her all the way here had suddenly stopped on this road.

Originally, she had heard that her benefactor was planning to go all the way south, but she thought that the south was seriously affected by the disaster, so her benefactor was just making up an excuse to refuse to bring them along.

She didn’t expect his tracks to really extend all the way south. What was even more unexpected was that there were other footprints and tracks that were heading south.

It must have been left behind by people who had gone to the south to find their surviving relatives, which had caused great difficulty for her tracking.

However, when she arrived, she found that her benefactor’s tracks had disappeared.

It wasn’t that it had merged with other traces and couldn’t be distinguished, but that it had disappeared into thin air!

Madam Du couldn’t explain this situation at all. How could a carriage full of food and property disappear into thin air? Did it grow wings and fly into the Sky?

While she was still racking her brain for a reason, Lin Xu and Miss Tian were shocked by the news.

“Sister Du, you … Did you see it wrong? The marks here are a lot messier. Why don’t you take a good rest first and then take a look?”

Lin Xu said, forcing herself to remain calm.

She originally thought that as long as she followed Madam Du and followed the tracks all the way down, she would definitely be able to keep up with her benefactor. But she didn’t expect to lose her benefactor halfway.

Now that they had no way to go forward, and they couldn’t return to the previous village, they were faced with a dilemma.

“What are you moving about for? If you keep bothering me, I’ll kill you!”

Miss Tian’s scolding could be heard from the carriage. Lin Xu did not know what she was up to this time. She turned her head in frustration and was about to scold her to shut up. She did not expect to see a woman using her head to arch Miss Tian’s leg.

Lin Xu narrowed her eyes and immediately got back into the carriage. She pushed Miss Tian, who was punching the woman in the face, to the side. “Lin Xu, don’t think that I won’t dare to fight you. Don’t go too far!”

After being embarrassed by Lin Xu one after another, Miss Tian could no longer suppress her anger. She screamed and clawed at Lin Xu’s face without any care.

“If you don’t want to die here, then be good!”

Although Lin Xu was also pampered by an unmarried young lady and lived a life of luxury after marriage, she liked to cook. She knew that the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach so she often cooked to train her culinary skills.”

Her physique was much stronger than Miss Tian’s, so she could block her shrew’s fist with her arm. Then, she stood up and kicked Miss Tian out of the carriage.

“Do you know how to find him?”

Lin Xu asked the woman who had suddenly quieted down. The latter nodded and showed a flattering smile.

The hair that had been scattered on her face slid to the sides, revealing a pure and lustful face.. It was the female mountain bandit who had been abandoned by Gu Ying in the village to wait for her death!
