MTL - The Salty Little Cannon Fodder Was Targeted By the Prince

Chapter 14 What nonsense are you talking about?

 The next day, it was only the third watch.

 Outside the house, there is a row of horses.

 There were no carriages, so horses were used to carry things.

 It is easier to walk on a mountain road and ride a horse.

Du Wan now rode a young mare as she wished, becoming the only cub in the team. However, she lost her previous excitement. Forgive me for being pulled up in the middle of the night and told that I had to go on my way, but my mood was not much better.

 If you ride in a carriage, you can still sleep.

 Horse horse, don’t think about it!

 A normal heart, a normal heart!

Chuntao also rode over on a tall horse. She was dressed simply and was very suitable for riding a horse.

That movement, that figure...

 Character and heroic!

Du Wan looked a little hot-eyed, "Chuntao, what did you do before?"

“We are running horses, following the caravan.” Chuntao answered truthfully, “My man is a squad leader. This time he will not be running for business, but will mainly **** the crown prince and you back to the capital.”

Du Wan:…

  Can't compare, can't compare.

 At this time, Pei Hao and Mu Si'an both changed into simple clothes.

Before getting on the horse, some guards came forward and each put a cloak on them.

Du Wan blinked and said, "Chuntao, why are you wearing a cloak?"

The weather is not cold!

When Chuntao heard this, she ouched, "Look at my brain. I was only busy getting the girl's snacks, but I forgot about my cloak. There was heavy dew in the early morning on the mountain, and I didn't even have a cloak on. My hair and clothes were all wet."

While saying this, Chuntao went to get the cloak.

Pei Hao happened to see this scene.

I thought she was too big-hearted and didn’t wear it on purpose...

  Anyway, it would be strange for this eldest lady not to act strangely all day long.

Mu Si'an raised his hand to greet Du Wan with a smile on his face.

Du Wan then smiled and waved her little hand at him as a response.

 The atmosphere is harmonious.

very good!

Chuntao took out a moon-white cloak.

 There was a circle of fluffy hair on the edge of the hood. I didn’t know what it was. I couldn’t help but touch it with my little hand. It was very soft. After putting it on, I felt quite heroic and a knight-errant feeling in my heart.

 Wait for the order from the front and set off.

Because we are still in the city, everyone is holding their horses.

 So, Miss Du was in the same mood, and the song suddenly started to howl: "You carry the load, and I lead the horse. Welcome the sunrise, and send away the sunset..."

 The motorcade was already busy in a dull mood, but when she sang like this, it actually made them happy.

And this song, this tune, is quite novel.

 A few of them hummed along, and there was great joy.

　　"Easing the bumps, you become a great road; overcoming the difficulties and dangers, you set out again...and you set out again. La...la..."

Mu Si'an, who was riding in front, laughed so hard that his shoulders shook.

If it weren't for Pei Hao's knife flying towards him, Mu Si'an would have wanted to howl along with him.

Mu Si'an said happily: "Master, don't mention it, your little fiancée can sing quite well."

Pei Hao: “…”

 It seems that I have been really free recently.

 Leaving the city smoothly.

 Not long after walking, the east began to shine slightly.

After Du Wan rode for a while, he felt tired.

 At this time, she missed the carriage a little.

 The carriage was bumpy, but I could still sleep.

It's not possible to ride a horse. What if I accidentally fall?

"Girl, are you tired? Do you want a drink of water." Chuntao rode a horse and got closer.

Du Wan shook his head, "No need."

“When we reach the next town, we can change the carriage.”

 “Hmm, uh-huh.”

Du Wan gave Chuntao a toothy smile and said, "Don't worry, I'm not a charming young lady. I'm a little girl who has been in the mountains, hunted, and collected medicine."

Chuntao couldn’t help laughing.

"You are carrying the load, I am riding a horse, and I am facing the high mountains. I am not afraid of anything. ...La la~ la la la~ I am not afraid of anything!" Du Wan sang and waved his riding whip. .

Chuntao couldn’t stop laughing.

 Ouch, Miss Jiao even changed the words.

Pei Hao and Mu Si'an in front had different expressions when they heard this.

Pei Hao still had no reaction.

Mu Si'an, on the other hand, laughed so hard that his shoulders trembled, "Ouch, I laughed so hard. He is a very interesting person. Does the prince really have no ideas?"

"No idea." Pei Hao really had no idea about a little girl.

As for the engagement they made when they were young, not only did he not like it, but Du Wan didn't seem to be happy either, otherwise the rumors about Xie Qi wouldn't have spread.

Mu Si'an vaguely guessed, otherwise he wouldn't have asked this question.

 Noon.

 Passing by a small forest.

 The team rested on the spot and ate dry food.

 After only resting for more than a quarter of an hour, everyone continued on the road.

 The mountains are steep and the mountain roads are rugged.

 The narrow road has eighteen turns, sometimes high and sometimes low.

As long as you look forward, there are endless mountains in sight. There are several peaks that are very high, reaching as high as the night sky. Because the upper half of the mountain was covered by clouds.

This is the first time Du Wan has seen such majestic and continuous mountains.

 “Original mountains.”

 “The girl is very happy.”

“It’s not happiness, it’s emotion. These are treasure mountains, natural treasure houses.” Du Wan’s big eyes were shining.

Chuntao hit the nail on the head, "Even if there are treasures everywhere, you still have to be able to get them."

 Du Wan: “…”

　　　What nonsense are you talking about?

 In the primitive mountains, crises are everywhere.

 Beasts, poisonous insects, poisonous weeds, miasma, etc. Otherwise, just relying on these mountains, there wouldn't be so many people dying of hunger in the world. Du Wan was so hungry that she had to risk going into the mountains. However, I only dared to enter the outer areas, which were still frequently visited by people and there were not many dangerous hills.

 Feeling depressed, I need a song to relieve my troubles.

Du Wan sang at the top of her voice again.

It’s not about singing one song at a time, it’s about singing whatever comes to mind

 The dull team was a lot happier with her singing.

Until he was about to enter the mountain, Pei Hao in front suddenly turned around and shouted: "Don't make any noise."

Du Wan blinked with big eyes.

 Just singing a song, who is bothering me? Is it great to be a villain?

Pei Hao did not explain.

But Du Wanzhen doesn’t sing anymore.

Chuntao’s next sentence clarified her confusion, “Across this mountain, there is a bandit’s den. Sound can travel far in the mountains.”

“Did I do something bad when I sang just now?” Du Wan’s little face looked regretful, “Why didn’t you remind me earlier?”

Chuntao was happy when she saw this, "Girl, we haven't arrived yet."

 “Not here?” Du Wan blinked in confusion.

“Yes, you have to climb over the mountain. But once you enter the mountain, you should make less noise and attract wolves.”

"Um…"

 Du Wan is now wilting again.

 When she arrived in this world, she was like a little rookie waiting to be slaughtered.

 A flag was unfurled in front of the team.

The flag fluttering in the wind has a totem embroidered with gold thread on one side, and a large Chinese character with a flying dragon and phoenix on the other side.

Du Wan's little heart became curious again, "Why did you pull up the flag?"

“Remind the bandits that we are not to be trifled with,” Chuntao explained.

"What's the word on it? I'm far away and can't see clearly." Du Wan opened her eyes and told lies.

Chuntao is also illiterate, but she knows what the character is, "It's the character Mu, from Mr. Mu's family."

“Hey, isn’t this the Pei family’s motorcade?”

"The Mu family's caravan travels all over the country and has a relatively big reputation." Chuntao said implicitly. Later, seeing her confused face, she whispered something, "The Zhenguo government has always kept a low profile."
