We agreed that I would be married off to a short-lived general, but why is my husband so powerful?

Wen Rushi certainly didn't actually faint from being drugged.

At her current level of cultivation, ordinary medicines would have no effect on her.

She was faking her coma, of course.

The fact that they could drug them in Yancheng must mean they had ulterior motives. She wanted to play along and see who was behind it all.

Not long after Wen Rushi fainted, the door to the private room creaked open.

Two men dressed as waiters walked in from outside.

The two men didn't say a word, but came up, picked up the two men, and left.

Wen Rushi had just been hoisted onto the shoulder of a man with a somewhat foreign appearance, and the smell emanating from him almost made her vomit.

It stinks!

These barbarians are truly disgusting!

Wen Rushi closed her eyes and held her breath.

Soon, the two of them were carried downstairs to a carriage in the backyard of the restaurant.

Perhaps they were confident in the drug, because they didn't tie Wen Rushi's hands or feet.

They drove the carriage away from the restaurant, taking the two of them with them.

Wen Rushi lay motionless on the carriage, her eyes closed, and extended her divine sense outwards.

Lying beside her was Yue Lingshan, who showed no signs of waking up.

The divine sense extends further outward.

Then they saw the two men, who had somehow changed into servants' clothes, driving a carriage towards the outskirts of the city.

The two remained silent throughout.

As the carriage left the city, it finally stopped outside a courtyard in the suburbs.

One of the men got out of the car and knocked on the door. A moment later, the gate opened.

The carriage was driven into the courtyard.

Soon, the carriage curtain was lifted.

A burly woman boarded the carriage, and upon seeing Wen Rushi and Yue Lingshan, asked, "Are these the people who have repeatedly ruined the chief's plans?"

"That's right! The tall one can start a fire, and the skinny one seems capable of breaking the leader's formation. We waited for a long time before we finally caught up with him."

"Alright, put them in the cargo, we're leaving tonight." After the woman got off the carriage, she waved her hand, and the two men got on the carriage, lifted the two of them off, and put them into the large wooden box next to them.

Upon hearing this conversation, Wen Rushi was immediately delighted.

She was still wondering where to find someone when this opportunity came knocking on her door.

Now, she doesn't have to go through the trouble of searching for people anymore.

She was quite lucky.

She immediately stopped making any further moves.

She allowed the other party to put her into a large wooden box.

After closing the wooden box, she released her divine sense and saw that Yue Lingshan, like her, had also been placed into a large box.

The two boxes were lifted onto a horse-drawn cart used for transporting goods.

The wagon carried more than just two chests. It also contained a lot of grain, furs, and other goods, resembling a traveling merchant's cart.

After the carriage was loaded and it got dark, it set off again.

This time, there were three carriages and six men.

However, as the carriage moved further and further away from Yancheng, nearly ten more carriages and more than twenty men arrived one after another behind it.

These men were all dressed in thick furs.

The direction the carriage was heading was the direction of the grassland.

Hearing this, he felt relieved.

This departure lasted all night.

The box could barely fit one person.

Wenru stayed in the box all night, her body remaining in one position, until it went numb.

Wenru used his spiritual power to alleviate the situation several times before he managed to prevent any disturbance.

Wen Rushi was already somewhat regretful. If she had known she would suffer like this, she would have preferred to simply faint like Yue Lingshan.

After daybreak, a sound finally came from the box next door; Yue Lingshan had woken up.

This means that Wen Rushi can finally move.

However, she didn't make a sound immediately.

until......

"Let me out!" Yue Lingshan's voice came through the box.

Wen Rushi timed it perfectly and also tampered with the box, making a noise.

"Let me out!" Wen Rushi shouted angrily, just like Yue Lingshan.

A short while later, the box was opened.

Before Wen Rushi could even stand up and stretch, a gleaming knife was placed against her neck.

Looking next to her, Yue Lingshan was being treated the same way.

"Don't move!"

Wen Ru looked frightened and asked, "Why are you arresting me?"

Yue Lingshan stared at the man in front of her, wanting to nod, but with a knife between her neck, she dared not move.

The man did not answer Wen Rushi's question. "You'll know when we get there."

Two people came and tied them with ropes.

Wen Rushi was not surprised when the man did not answer.

She didn't struggle and obediently let the other person tie her hands and feet.

He also gave Yue Lingshan a reassuring look.

Seeing Wen Ru's calm demeanor and recalling her sister-in-law's abilities, Yue Lingshan's tense emotions gradually subsided.

Although my hands and feet were tied, at least I didn't have to stay cooped up in the box anymore.

The two changed to a horse-drawn carriage this time.

However, they were horse-drawn carts used for transporting grain.

There are no carriages.

The two were being watched by more than a dozen men, so they couldn't say anything.

They sat in the carriage, the wind carrying fine snow that had started to fall from all directions, making them shiver with cold.

For Yue Lingshan, this was worse than staying in the box in the grain pile; at least it was warm inside.

This little bit of wind and snow was nothing to Wen Rushi.

However, in order not to expose herself and arouse the other party's suspicion, she, like Yue Lingshan, looked quite cold.

Yue Lingshan is really cold.

Finally, she shrank back into the box that contained her.

Upon seeing this, Wen Rushi had no choice but to return to the other box.

Outside the box, the men cursed and swore, their gazes toward Wen Rushi and the other man growing increasingly hostile.

Even if Wen Rushi couldn't understand what they were saying.

But even a fool could tell that they were blaming them for making them travel through wind and snow in the dead of winter.

This walk took up most of the day.

The carriage stopped only when it reached a sheltered spot and set up camp.

At this time, Wen Rushi also discovered that the wagons carried not only grain and furs, but also a lot of daily necessities and tents.

Clearly, they came prepared.

I just don't know how long we'll have to walk on the grassland.

Along the way, there were only two women, her and Yue Lingshan, facing about thirty burly men. Wen Ru was worried that these men might do something on the way.

Wen Rushi's guess was correct.

We've only been traveling for three days.

A man with a scar on his face and an ugly appearance kept looking at Yue Lingshan with a lewd look in his eyes.

Wen Rushi originally planned to play dumb and get these people to take them to their tribe.

But now, it seems the plans will have to be changed.

However, Wen Rushi did not want any complications until the very last moment.

On this snow-covered grassland, it's easy to get lost without someone to guide you.

Getting lost and having no food didn't really affect her much.

But Yue Lingshan needs to eat.

Although she could also directly threaten these people to lead the way.

However, the barbarians were never trustworthy and were cunning and unpredictable, so she couldn't trust them.

After much thought, it seems the safest approach is to play dumb and outsmart the enemy.

Of course, this is on the premise that these people don't have any ill intentions towards them.
