Chapter 166 - 166 My Husband Left Me Behind. Are You Satisfied Now?!
166 My Husband Left Me Behind. Are You Satisfied Now?!
After pulling out the dagger that was still stuck in the northern barbarian’s chest, Lin Suisui raised her hand and wiped the blood off her face. With an indifferent expression, she wiped the blood off the blade of the northern barbarian’s shirt. Then, she put away the dagger and began to search the northern barbarian in front of her.
She definitely wouldn’t let go of the silver. That scimitar wasn’t bad either. Bringing the ointment used to treat injuries with her would be good too!
There didn’t seem to be anything else that was particularly valuable or useful!
Lin Suisui turned around and found her bag. Then, she climbed onto the warhorse that the northern barbarian soldier had just ridden over. Under Little White’s lead, she rode the horse in the direction Lu Ze had left in.
This pursuit lasted from dark to dawn and from dawn to dusk.
Along the way, Lin Suisui got off the horse and rested for less than six hours. After she ate something, she applied medicine to the wound on her leg. Then, she hugged Little White and lay down for a while before getting up again.
If she hadn’t avoided the main road and traveled through the forest, she wouldn’t have known that there was actually a village here.
However, Lin Suisui didn’t go far before she realized that something was wrong.
Wasn’t this village too quiet?!
She didn’t dare to be careless. She quickly circled around the village and rode to the forest at the side.
Originally, she wanted to leave directly, but she didn’t expect there to be a small Mountain God Temple behind the forest. As for Little White, it squeezed through the gap in the dilapidated door of the Mountain God Temple.
Lin Suisui had no choice but to dismount and go in to take a look.
She carefully stuck her head out of the door and looked for a long time. Seeing that there wasn’thing wrong inside, she lowered her voice and called Little White twice. However, Little White only squatted by the offering table and stuck out its round butt excitedly, ignoring her call.
Because Little White was inside, Lin Suisui wasn’t that afraid of entering anymore.
She carefully pushed open the temple door, planning to go in and get Little White out first. However, when she went over and lifted the tattered tablecloth, she was shocked…
“Why are you here?!”
Lin Suisui looked in shock at Pei Qian, who had crawled out from under the offering table with a bloodstained face. She didn’t expect that the noble young master, who had always been high and mighty, would actually have such a day!
What goes around comes around?!
“What about you? Why are you alone?!” Pei Qian frowned and subconsciously looked at the entrance of the temple, but he didn’t see anyone else. However, he clearly remembered that he had sent five horses to Gu Erlang.
Moreover, he didn’t hear Gu Erlang say that he wanted to abandon Lin Suisui?!
“You’re injured?!” Lin Suisui avoided answering this question and looked at the wound on Pei Qian’s shoulder.
“It’s not a serious injury! You still haven’t told me why you’re here alone!” Pei Qian glanced at the hideous wound on his shoulder with the help of the match in Lin Suisui’s hand. He was more concerned about the answer to the question he was asking.
“What’s there to say? Didn’t you already guess?!” Lin Suisui was furious from the interrogation. She glared at Pei Qian as she retorted rudely, “My husband abandoned me. Are you satisfied now?!
Do you want me to treat your injuries? If not, I’m leaving!”
“Then I’ll have to trouble you!” Pei Qian froze. After thinking about it carefully, he wasn’t surprised by Lu Ze’s decision. However, seeing that Lin Suisui was really angry, he didn’t rub salt in the little girl’s wound anymore. He agreed to Lin Suisui’s suggestion to treat his injuries.
In order not to alarm others, Lin Suisui and the others didn’t light a bonfire. Instead, they used the match that Lin Suisui had lit.
She checked the wound on Pei Qian’s shoulder that had yet to be treated. Because it was stained with dust, it looked very horrendous. Lin Suisui thought for a moment and took out the wine pot she had taken from the northern barbarian. Then, she came over and instructed Pei Qian, “Bear with it!”
Then, before Pei Qian could react, the strong wine in the wine pot was poured onto his mangled wound.
“Ouch!” Pei Qian was caught off guard by this rude treatment. However, before he could lose his temper, he saw Lin Suisui shove the wine pot in his hand. He couldn’t help but frown. “Where did this wine pot come from?!”
Pei Qian could tell at a glance that this wine pot didn’t belong to the empire! This was a kettle that only northern barbarian cavalry carried with them. It could be used to store water or wine!
How could this thing be in the hands of the young lady in front of him?!
“On the way over, I bumped into a northern barbarian soldier! Little White and I worked together to kill him. We snatched his things and horse, then came over!” Lin Suisui’s face was tense and she quickly treated Pei Qian’s wound while explaining everything that had happened.
“Nonsense! Since Gu Erlang left you behind, he hopes that you can stay in a safe place!” Pei Qian gasped when he heard Lin Suisui’s story. He turned around in disapproval and wanted to teach this arrogant woman behind him a lesson. Unexpectedly, his wound was pulled, and he broke out in cold sweat from the pain. “Be gentler!
I saw that when you bandaged those injured soldiers previously, your movements weren’t so rough!”
“Those soldiers weren’t as naggy as you!” Lin Suisui rolled her eyes in disdain. After debriding and suturing, she took a jar of medicine and applied it for him before taking out thin cotton cloth to bandage him.
“Keep this pot of medicine. Remember to apply it yourself later!”
After Lin Suisui finished instructing Pei Qian, she turned around and packed her bag again. She was about to leave when Pei Qian stopped her. “Where are you going?!”
“Of course I’m going to look for my husband!” Lin Suisui turned around and looked at Pei Qian as she said matter-of-factly, “Otherwise, should I stay here and continue serving you?!”
“You’re not… shh!” Pei Qian took two steps forward and was about to stop Lin Suisui when his expression suddenly changed, as if he had discovered something. “Someone’s here!”
“Our horse is here. They’re our people!” As if to prove that Pei Qian was right, before he could finish speaking, a northern barbarian’s happy laughter sounded outside. Although they sounded strange, the two people in the Mountain God Temple understood them.
