68 Uncertain Future
Su Ying led the horse over and helped Xiao Jin up before telling him to go ahead to meet up with the children.
Xiao Jin looked at Su Ying with a puzzled expression. “Why do you still want to stay here?”
Su Ying looked at the mercenaries who had passed out and gave a scornful laugh. “You’ll know soon.”
Although Xiao Jin was puzzled, he knew that Su Ying had her own rules in whatever she did, so he rode the horse through the entrance.
Su Ying’s almond-shaped eyes glared icily at the people on the ground. She then found a hidden spot to enter her interspatial store. When she came out, she was holding a gun that was as thick as an arm.
She held the gun and shot at the necks of the mercenaries on the ground. A small red mark appeared on their necks where they had been hit, but the red mark disappeared quickly.
After making sure that everyone had been shot with that red mark, Su Ying took out a red button and pressed it.
The mercenaries who were lying unconscious on the ground suddenly twitched on the spot and slowly regained consciousness.
They got up from the ground one by one, bewildered that Su Ying didn’t kill them immediately.
“You’re too kind, Ma’am. You didn’t kill us when you had such a good opportunity. So don’t blame us for taking your wretched life… Argh!” Before the mercenary leader could finish his words, a sharp pain suddenly erupted in his head. It was so painful that he rolled on the ground, wishing he could twist his head off.
Su Ying looked at him blankly with an icy, disdainful look. “He’s your leader?”
The other mercenaries were all stunned by this sight. They looked at Su Ying in fear, not knowing what she had done to them.
“Yes, yes.”
“Then I’ll call him Number One. Everyone, stay in formation and follow me obediently. I’m warning you, don’t try to play any tricks. You’ve already been poisoned by me. If you dare to have any ill intentions, you’ll end up like this idiot on the ground.”
“Argh! Cough, cough! Puke!”
The mercenary leader was in so much pain he couldn’t stop vomiting. His condition appeared both disgusting and terrifying.
It could be said that these mercenaries had committed all kinds of evil deeds over the years. Even if they were not arrogant to the extent that they were not afraid of the heavens and earth, they were by no means comparable to ordinary evil people.
However, at this moment, they looked at Su Ying as if they were lowly demons who had met the King of Hell. They were extremely terrified.
“What’s wrong? You don’t want to move, or do you want to have a taste of that pain?”
Those people didn’t even see Su Ying move before they suddenly felt a splitting headache.
One by one, they fell to the ground in immense pain.
“Spare us, spare us, heroine. We’ll listen to you. We’ll listen to whatever you say.”
After they begged for mercy, the pain in their heads gradually eased. Now, even if they were resentful inwardly, they did not dare to make a sound.
“Stop talking nonsense and move!”
The mercenaries got up from the ground and lined up, whereupon Su Ying turned around in satisfaction. “Move.”
However, she had only taken two steps when she turned back to look at the pack of wolves that wanted to take the opportunity to escape. “Dogs, where do you think you are going?”
The fur of the wolves stood on end, and they turned around and walked behind the mercenaries with their tails between their legs.
When Cheng Ming and the others saw Su Ying walk in with the mercenaries and the wolves, they were a little afraid. However, soon, they realized that the people and wolves were abnormally obedient, and they all looked at Su Ying in shock.
“We’ll keep these beasts. They will be useful in the future.” Su Ying explained as she looked at everyone’s confused expressions.
“Mistress, these people are evil to the core. I’m afraid they won’t be easy to subdue,” Hea Shouyi said worriedly.
Su Yu knew what Hea Shouyi meant. He was worried that these mercenaries would do one thing in front of her and do another behind her back and that they would stab her in the back when she wasn’t paying attention.
“I’ve already told them that as long as I, Su Ying, am still alive, they will be able to live. If anything happens to me, they will be buried with me as funeral offerings.”
Su Ying had told them that the poison trigger was on her body. If she died, they would not be able to live either.
These people didn’t know what Su Ying had done to them. Even if they were skeptical, they didn’t dare to do anything to Su Ying nonetheless.
Upon hearing her words, everyone fell silent.
The carriages were damaged in many places. Although they could still carry people, they were leaking air here and there.
Su Ying asked everyone to carry the injured onto the carriage. As the injured were all big-sized men, only a few children could sit in the remaining space in the carriage. The rest of the people followed on foot.
Su Ying looked around and found that the entrance to the northern wilderness was at the foot of a mountain. They were currently at the foot of this mountain. There wasn’t much ground vegetation around them, but the trees were very tall.
“Let’s go forward and see if we can get out of here.”
Tian Mu and Cheng Yang were driving the carriages. Su Ying allowed Aunt Zhao to sit next to Cheng Ming, and Bai Shuang sat on the other carriage.
Madam Sun was not happy the moment she saw this. She had been sitting in the carriage for several days now. How could she be willing to get out and walk now?
“I also want to take the carriage.” Madam Sun immediately blurted out and climbed up to Tian Mu’s side. She couldn’t wait to elbow Li Wanniang, who was sitting next to Tian Mu, out of the way.
Su Ying raised her eyebrows icily. “You can either come down and walk or get lost. I don’t want to hear any nonsense. It’s your choice.”
Madam Sun stuck her neck out. “There’s still space here. Why can’t I sit?”
Su Ying lost her patience. “Tian Mu, throw her down.”
Tian Mu looked apologetically at Wang Lang in the carriage, frowned, and pushed Madam Sun off.
“Argh! Who do you think you are to push me?”
Tian Mu’s face was stony as he quickly drove the carriage to the front. In fact, the space in front of the carriage was very narrow. If Madam Sun knew how to drive the carriage, he would have given up his seat. After all, Wanniang was still in her confinement period, and he really couldn’t bear to let her get too tired.
However, Madam Sun didn’t know anything, so of course, he couldn’t give up his seat.
“What are you going so fast for? Stop right there… Argh!”
Howl!
Madam Sun almost collided with the alpha wolf leader. She screamed in fright and took a few steps back.
The alpha wolf leader was feeling grouchy and had no way to vent his emotions. He stared at Madam Sun with a pair of icy cold eyes, which made Madam Sun’s hair stand on end.
Wang Lang, who was lying in the carriage, closed his eyes weakly. He didn’t want anything to happen to his mother, but she had indeed gone overboard in some of the things she did.
Although this place was said to be a mountain, it was not steep at all. Even the horse carriage could travel relatively smoothly.
Su Ying climbed up a tree and surveyed her surroundings. To her chagrin, the leaves blocked her view completely, and she couldn’t see anything at all.
As they walked down, they could still see some bones. The bones had been eroded by the wind, and it was clear that their owners had been dead for a long time.
As night fell, the mountain forest was covered in a layer of dark fog. The surroundings became dark, and the visibility of the surroundings gradually decreased.
Su Ying took out a lighter and lit a torch. As she held the torch, she secretly held an illumination tool in her palm to light up the path ahead. The surroundings instantly became much brighter.
“What is this place? Why can’t I reach the end?”
Zhang Cuiniang pushed aside the wild grass in front of her. The more she walked, the more flustered she felt.
A shadow flashed past the spot where Su Ying’s torch was shining. As the other party’s movement was too fast, no one could tell what it was.
