"Sect Master Gongshu, I'm a rough person. I apologize for some unfriendly things that happened before. It was indeed our fault. Sect Master Gongshu, please don't take offense.”
Zhao Linwu sat on the back of the horse and said with a serious expression.
"General Zhao, why do you need to do this?”
Gongshu Lin looked at the cavalry in front of him and spoke slowly.
What happened before?
He had not suffered any injuries, so he naturally did not take it to heart.
Moreover…
Gongshu Lin still had the upper hand in that matter.
As for Meng Tian and the other two, they had no choice but to follow Gongshu Lin to the Gongshu family's ancestral land under pressure.
"Sect Master Gongshu is broad-minded, which makes me feel even more ashamed.”
Zhao Linwu sighed.
After witnessing Meng Tian's attitude towards Gongshu Lin, as a deputy general, how could he not know what his general was thinking? It was also because of this that he wanted to befriend Gongshu Lin as soon as possible.
No matter what, he couldn't let the other party bear a grudge.
Ta Ta Ta Ta!
The cavalry and warhorses stepped on the ground, and the three thousand cavalry marched west with great momentum!
About an hour later.
The cavalry stopped.
With Meng Tian in the lead, they formed a neat line!
"What's wrong?"
Gongshu Lin asked in confusion.
"General, I'm afraid you've found some traces.”
Zhao Linwu explained.
He did not go closer to observe. Long before this trip, his mission had been confirmed by Meng Tian. Other than protecting Gongshu Lin's life, everything else had nothing to do with him!
From this mission.
Zhao Linwu could tell that Gongshu Lin's weight was rather high in Meng Tian's eyes.
At the thought of it.
A young man in his twenties had become the sect master of the prosperous Gongshu family. Zhao Linwu could not help but sigh in his heart. The world was indeed full of wonders!
"How about we go and take a look?"
Gongshu Lin's eyes flashed with curiosity.
"If Sect Master Gongshu wants to, it's not a troublesome matter.”
Zhao Linwu said.
Immediately.
Gongshu Lin jumped down from the horse's back, holding the Godly Zhuge Crossbow in his right arm. The small Godly Zhuge Crossbow gave him a deep sense of security.
This world could be said to be quite dangerous.
As a trap master, he naturally had to have a lot of self-preservation methods!
Therefore…
Other than the Godly Zhuge Crossbow in his right hand, Gongshu Lin also held an umbrella-like object in his left hand. In fact, it was also a mechanism!
It was just a small mechanism developed by the Gongshu family. Gongshu Lin had not had the time to improve the mechanism umbrella in his left hand. However, he could still use it a little.
At the side.
Zhao Linwu followed beside Gongshu Lin. His eyes looked around cautiously, fulfilling his duty as a protective personnel.
However, when he thought about how he, as a deputy general of three thousand cavalry, had actually been reduced to a young man's bodyguard, he could only smile bitterly.
Before that.
He didn't dare to imagine such a thing.
But now.
However, Zhao Linwu was willing to be a guard!
"General Meng Tian."
Gongshu Lin walked forward and saw Meng Tian half-squatting, her hands groping the ground.
"Sect Master Gongshu."
Meng Tian did not raise her head. She was still focused on the soil in her hands.
The soil was slightly damp, and under his half-squatting feet.
It was a set of footprints!
The footprints were thin and shallow, but they still did not escape his detection.
"Footprints…"
Gongshu Lin narrowed his eyes slightly.
He could tell from the depth of the footprints on the ground.
It had just been left behind not long ago.
Furthermore!
The many footprints in this area were all left at the same time.
This meant that not long ago, there were more than hundreds of people here!
Obviously!
If nothing unexpected happened.
This group of people were the traces left behind by the remnants of the Chu Country that they had been searching for this time!
"They should be not far ahead!”
Meng Tian's eyes flashed as she looked to her right.
Soon after.
Gongshu Lin returned to his warhorse and followed the entire team forward.
"Sect Master Gongshu, do you think it's very boring?”
Since Zhao Linwu had nothing to do, he started to chat.
"Boring is indeed boring, but not boring. I think this is quite interesting. Isn't it exciting to have an enemy hiding in the dark?”
The corners of Gongshu Lin's mouth curled up slightly with a smile.
"Excited?"
Zhao Linwu was stunned for a moment before he broke into laughter.
Indeed!
It was his first time on the battlefield, and it was indeed very exciting and terrifying!
However, as time passed.
It was just like that, it could no longer cause any emotional fluctuations.
They walked for less than an hour.
Gongshu Lin saw very obvious traces left behind by people.
It was a bonfire!
The charcoal left behind by the burning bonfire.
Not just a pile.
He looked ahead.
According to his initial judgment, there were at least thirty piles.
He jumped down from his horse.
Gongshu Lin walked to the charcoal left by the fire and fumbled around. He could immediately come to a conclusion.
The flames had just been extinguished!
Judging from the charcoal ashes left at the scene, there was not much wood left in the fire. From this, it could be inferred that it had not been more than an hour since the firewood was lit!
"How far can they go in an hour?”
"There are horse footprints, but most of them are human footprints. This meant that not everyone in the Chu Country was worthy of a warhorse.”
"Therefore, with only an hour, how far can they escape?”
Gongshu Lin's eyes shone brightly, and a smile appeared on his face.
Things were starting to get interesting.
"Sect Master Gongshu, we need to speed up. Can you still keep up?”
Meng Tian walked over and asked.
"No worries."
Gongshu Lin nodded.
"Remember, protect Sect Master Gongshu!”
Meng Tian turned to look at Zhao Linwu beside her and instructed solemnly.
"General, don't worry. Unless I die, Sect Master Gongshu won't be hurt.”
Zhao Linwu's expression was very serious.
Under Meng Tian's lead, the entire team prepared to continue moving forward.
On the back of the warhorse.
Gongshu Lin looked around. He was admiring the surroundings, but his eyes were fixed on the edge of the tree trunk ten meters away.
There was a tiny line there. It was very obscure, but it still could not escape his detection.
"This is…"
"A trap!"
Gongshu Lin immediately shouted to the front," General Meng Tian, tell everyone to stop immediately!”
