"I understand, you don't have to worry about it, you can continue on your way tomorrow." Xiaodie still understood the current situation very well, so she expressed her understanding.

"Okay, then you can take a rest." Saying that, Saier took out a sleeping bag from the backpack and gave it to Xiaodie.

This sleeping bag was the only sleeping bag that Sell brought. It was just in case, but I didn't expect to use it now.

After Xiaodie nodded in agreement, she went aside and got into her sleeping bag.Saill sat by the fire and told all the warriors to take turns to watch tonight in case of emergencies.

The warriors obeyed Sayre's orders.In this way, the first night was spent safely.

When it was just dawn, the warriors woke up one after another.Sale woke up early, and went out to find water and some wild fruits.After returning, Saier woke up Xiaodie, and after everyone packed up, they continued on their horses and on their way.

It wasn't completely bright yet, but the road could already be seen clearly. In order to hurry on the road as soon as possible, Saier asked to start earlier.

Although Xiaodie was a little confused, fortunately she was sitting in the carriage, and Saier was in charge of driving the horse.So their journey is still relatively fast.

Judging from the speed currently required by Purcell, they have already covered a quarter of the distance they traveled before in one day. If the situation is considerable, they should spend another two days and one night to return to the city. royal palace.

After a day of rushing, Purcell just proposed to take a break in the middle.It was lunch time, and by the way, everyone took a lunch break for more than ten minutes, and then continued on the road.

In the afternoon, Saier saw that the horses were so tired, so he had to ask for another rest, then Saier called Xiaodie out of the carriage, and led all the horses aside to rest together with the warriors.

Fluttershy chose a place to sit under the shade of a tree, watching Saier and others feeding the horses.They were in a forest now, and Xiaodie still remembered that they passed here when they passed the place where the hunters lived in the kingdom.

At that time, Ares took Xiaodie to a stream not far away to clean things. Xiaodie looked in the direction of the stream, and she was thinking, is Ares okay with the hunters now? Wouldn't she also miss each other like her?

When Xiaodie was still immersed in her memories, she suddenly seemed to hear a strange sound.After arriving here, Xiaodie has also received combat training, so her senses are quite keen.

Xiaodie looked around vigilantly, trying to identify more carefully where the sound she just heard came from, but the sound seemed to disappear suddenly, and Xiaodie didn't hear it now.

But Xiaodie was sure that there was indeed a sound just now, and that sound sounded like the sound of someone stepping on a withered branch in the dark and breaking it.

Xiaodie stood up and came to Saier, who was still wondering why Xiaodie came over suddenly.

Xiaodie gestured to Saier with his eyes, and Saier was still a little confused, but his intuition told him that Xiaodie should have discovered something.Xiaodie leaned close to Saier's ear and said the strange sound just now. After listening to Saier, without any doubt or hesitation, she gestured for everyone to leave quickly.

So, they all got into the horse-drawn carriages respectively, then waved their whips and hurried away.

Purcell was on his way, while Xiaodie was sitting in the carriage thinking about the situation just now. She still wondered if she was suspicious for a moment. It stands to reason that the hunters had promised Ares to stay and let Sale and Xiaodie They left, did the hunters go back on their word and sent someone to follow them?

Xiaodie doesn't have a clue now, although she is not sure whether someone is following her, but based on the principle of all caution, Saier hurried on the road after Xiaodie reminded her.

They rode so fast that they ran out of the forest by night, but the horses would start to panic when night fell, so they had to stop and go on for the night.

This time, Sale and the others chose a relatively hidden place. In order not to expose their whereabouts, they did not regenerate the fire, but lit a candle, and then everyone surrounded the candle, trying to hide the light of the candle as much as possible.

"Is this useful?" Xiaodie felt that the light of the candle would still be exposed.

"There is no other way now. We can't make a fire, but we can't have no light at all, so light this candle." Saier said while protecting the flame of the candle.

"Could it be that I'm thinking too much?" Xiaodie worried that her suspicion would make everyone feel uneasy tonight.

"No, queen, we need to be careful in everything. Although the sound was only heard by you, it may be because you were the closest to the sound source at the time. No matter what, the possibility of someone following you is relatively high." Sale is very cautious, so he is willing Believe in the information Fluttershy captures.

"Queen, don't be too nervous. I specially chose this place to hide us. Let's go to rest first. Let's watch the night." Saier told Xiaodie to go to rest as soon as possible.

"But you were already on shift last night, so it will be very tiring." Although Xiaodie is the queen, she has always been treated as an equal with everyone, and she does not want to have privileges.

"It's okay. We are men, and the queen is a girl. It is also right for men to protect women. Really, go to sleep."

"...Okay." Xiaodie didn't want to entangle her too much, so she agreed and hid beside the stone.

Purcell still took turns guarding with all the warriors to prevent someone from attacking them at night.Fortunately, the night was peaceful, and they passed the second night safely.

When it was almost sunrise, Sale blew out the candles, put away the remaining candles, and went out to check the situation by himself.It was not yet dawn, and the air was mingled with bone-chilling coldness. Saier wrapped his clothes tightly.

Everything was silent, and Sale only heard his own footsteps and breathing.Sale came out to see if there were traces of anyone following them, so he looked around cautiously.

After finding nothing unusual and the sky showed signs of sunrise, Sale went back.The warriors have all woken up, and Xiaodie has also woken up. Seeing that Sale came from another place, he guessed that Sale should be looking out for the wind.

"How is it?" Xiaodie straightened her clothes and stood up.

"No abnormality was found, but we are still ready to go." Saier answered Xiaodie's question, and waved his hand to signal that everyone was ready to leave.

"Yeah." Xiaodie was already ready.

Everyone got on the horse, and Xiaodie got into the carriage. Today Saier asked to continue to be Xiaodie's coachman to drive the horse for Xiaodie.
