On the way to escape famine, my parents divorced

Chapter 116 Li Shiyue would never be willing to die before accomplishing his mission!

(Thanks to Li Li Loves Chocolate for voting for 1 monthly tickets.)
Even though it was already past five o'clock in the morning, the sky was still as dark as ink and one could not see one's hand in front of one's face.

Facing the howling cold wind with snowflakes in it, Li Shiyue and his companions left home, leading their horses.

Ma San brought two people with him, and there were four people in total on Li Shiyue's side, including herself. Only Li Qiutian, Ma Zi and Mole followed her.

Since they were going back to explore the way, the more people they had, the better. Therefore, Li Shiyue did not ask Li Xiatian and Shitou to come along, nor did he call Li Wangshui.

After such a long time, Li Shiyue has already become familiar with the road leading to Dahei Mountain. However, it is still a bit troublesome to lead the horse up the mountain.

Li Shiyue led the horse upwards with fried beans in his hand, while also having to be careful not to slip on the ice and snow.

Braving the wind and snow, we finally arrived at the edge of the grassland behind the Dahei Mountain after dawn.

The old horse knows the way. Li Shiyue let go of the reins, patted the horse's neck twice, and said in a gentle voice beside the horse's ear: "Good boy, let's go, it's time for you to go home."

I don’t know if it’s because the Dahei Mountain blocked the biting cold wind from the grassland, but the wind on the grassland is much weaker than that in Liujiatun.

The horse's hooves stepped on the thin layer of snow a few times, and then suddenly moved in one direction.

Another horse followed behind this horse. Li Shiyue quickly followed behind the horse's butt. The horse started by walking fast with the clatter of its four hooves, then gradually changed to trotting, and finally it just ran straight away.

In other words, Li Shiyue and his men all have good physical fitness, especially Ma San and the other two, who are military servicemen and have long been accustomed to running. After all, on the battlefield, those who cannot run fast and are not smart would have died long ago.

Li Shiyue followed the horse's butt with full concentration, keeping her eyes and ears open. After running for two quarters of an hour, Li Shiyue realized that Ma Zi and Mole Zi were about to fall behind, so she quickened her pace, ran forward, and grabbed the reins.

The horses stopped, and the others ran forward a few more steps and then gradually stopped.

"Don't stop right away, walk around here and take a breath before you speak."

Li Shiyue said this to Ma Zi and Mole Zi.

It took a long time for Ma Zi and Mole to catch their breath.

Li Shiyue rubbed his cold hands and took out a pancake from his bag to eat. The colder it is, the more people need food to replenish their energy.

She broke off a piece of the still soft biscuit and put it into her mouth. The aroma of wheat was fragrant, and the delicious taste of carbohydrates made her drool.

After eating the pancake, Li Shiyue took out a handful of fried beans from the pocket tied around his waist to coax the two horses.

The long horse tongue came close to Li Shiyue's palm, and in a short while, all the beans in the palm were eaten up.

"Lieutenant General Ma, I think we are almost there. I will go explore the road ahead by myself. How about you guys stay here and wait for me?"

Ma San wiped his mouth and rejected Li Shiyue's proposal, saying that he wanted to go with Li Shiyue.

Li Shiyue had no objection, as she had seen Ma San's skills on the boat from Dongmu to Sanshan Port.

If Ma San didn't have any skills, he wouldn't be able to become the personal guard of the eldest son of the Zhenbei Wang family, right?
After resting for a while, Li Shiyue patted the horse's back. The horse understood human nature and started running again in the same direction.

The horse probably thought that Li Shiyue, who was running behind it, was playing with it, so it ran faster and faster.

Later, in order to catch up with the horse, Li Shiyue had to secretly use his internal strength. Ma San also reached the limit of his physical strength, and later fell behind Li Shiyue by a long distance.

Li Shiyue, who was running in the front, suddenly took two quick steps forward and grabbed the reins, stopping the horse that was running happily.

She heard a human voice!

The sound of the arrow breaking through the wind exploded in Li Shiyue's ears. It was as if Li Shiyue had eyes on the back of his head. He dodged to the side suddenly. The arrow shot from a distance flew past Li Shiyue's ear.

Li Shiyue turned around, got on the horse sideways, grabbed the reins and ran towards the direction where the arrow was flying. Holding the reins in one hand, he pulled out the hatchet from his waist with the other hand. With a "clang" sound, the arrowhead that broke through the air again was blocked by the broad back of the hatchet!
With his legs clamped tightly around the horse's belly, Li Shiyue saw the Mohe barbarians standing on horseback, drawing their bows and shooting arrows, only a few dozen steps ahead!

Two people!
Fortunately, only one of them has a bow!
The advantage is mine!

Li Shiyue urged his horse forward again, and another arrow shot forward!
She exerted her internal strength to the maximum, dodged sideways, and with a "bang", Li Shiyue chopped off the arrow that was heading towards her heart with his sword!

It’s getting closer, it’s now!

He raised his knife and chopped it down, and the entire horse's head was severed from the neck!

The hatchet stained with horse blood was raised up, and before the barbarian who was shooting the arrow could react, a head was separated from his neck!

Behead!

The horse's hooves continued to gallop forward, but the other barbarian had already turned around and ran away when Li Shiyue cut off the horse's head.

Seeing that the barbarian in front was getting farther and farther away, Li Shiyue became anxious. If this barbarian ran back to report the news, it would be uncertain whether they could escape from the grassland and survive today.

If they come to explore the way ahead, everything will be in trouble!
"no!"

Li Shiyue would never be willing to die before accomplishing his mission!

Li Shiyue thrust his knife-holding hand backwards into the horse's buttocks. The horse, in pain, ran forward at a speed like crazy, risking its life.

Close, closer!

The barbarian's horse's butt was right in front of him. Li Shiyue's internal force burst out, and he exerted force with his waist and jumped directly behind the "barbarian". He subdued the man with great force, slashed his neck with a knife, and blood spurted out, covering Li Shiyue's hand with hot blood!
Li Shiyue reached forward and grabbed the reins from the dead barbarian, then stopped the horse.

She got off the horse and hung the barbarian across it. Her own horse also stopped. It was not known whether it stopped because it smelled blood, or because it was afraid of Li Shiyue or something. It was breathing heavily from its nose in anxiety.

Li Shiyue pulled the barbarian's horse towards it. She stretched out her hand and wanted to grab a handful of beans from the cloth bag hanging on her waist to please the horse that she had stabbed in the buttocks. But when she saw the sticky blood on her hands, she gave up the idea.

She smeared the blood on her hands onto her clothes twice, walked back, carried the headless barbarian's body onto the horse's back, and placed it together with another body.

She also did not forget the head she had cut off and tied it directly to the saddle.

The question now is, what to do with the horse’s head?
Ma San, who finally ran over, was holding a knife and looking at Li Shiyue, whose body was covered in blood, and the two corpses on the horse that were obviously dressed as barbarians, one of which was headless. He looked at the headless horse corpse on the ground, and his brows were immediately frowned.
