Tokini was deeply moved by Jiang Ran's bravery and kindness, and everyone else also admired Jiang Ran's courage.
In such an atmosphere, Grandma Cassie thought about it and decided that since she had the mission of monitoring Swallock, it would not be a problem for her to go to Sand Dou Canyon, so she proposed it to Malik.
"Malik! We can't be more cowardly than the young people, right? Why don't we go to Shadou Canyon together?"
But Grandma Cathy didn't know that Jiang Ran had seen through her secret inner thoughts.
3.14 - Wei'er's Determination
"We've been waiting for you to say that, Grandma Cassie. We've actually had this idea for a long time, hahaha~!"
Malik and Loving hit it off right away with Grandma Cassie, and Tocchini was even more excited. She was happier than anything else to be able to work with her brother Benning again.
"Fufufu, let's make our caravan young again!"
At the dinner table, everyone in the caravan raised their glasses to celebrate. Jiang Ran also clinked glasses with everyone with a smile on his face, but his happiness was just an act.
Jiang Ran has no time to be happy now. He is already suspicious of Grandma Cassie's identity.
("A mission to monitor Svalerok"...? Is Svalerok a person's name?)
(Why is this "Svalerok" associated with Shadou Canyon?)
No matter who this "Svalerock" in Grandma Cassie's mind is, Jiang Ran is certain of one thing - that is, there is definitely something wrong with Grandma Cassie.
Now, on the trip to Shadou Canyon, Jiang Ran had to be wary of not only Captain Reidel of the Gude Town Cavalry, but also Grandma Cassie, who should not be taken lightly.

[Prison Star Calendar]
October 187, 5
10:26 AM
〖Confession: 29 days left in the death countdown〗
━━━━━━━━━━
In the orchard outside Ella Village, Wei'er spent the whole morning taking stock of the situation in the orchard and felt that she could take a break for a while.
"Everyone's requests for clothing repairs have piled up, it's time to deal with them~"
Wei'er stretched. She had been busy with the orchard's affairs these days and her back ached.
——(Weier, don't worry about those tattered clothes. It's time for everyone in the village to go to town and buy some new clothes.)
——(If you ask me, we should take advantage of this rare free time to find and kill Banning! It's a good time to stretch our muscles!)
Sister Ai'er became active in Wei'er's mind. The orchard life these days was almost boring her to death.
Sister Ai'er is different from Wei'er who likes peace and comfort. Only new and exciting things can satisfy her.
"Oh... Sister Elle... Why are you always thinking about Banning..."
——(Wei, Wei'er, you can't be so concise! What do you mean by being obsessed with Benning?! I'm determined to kill him!)
"Ah, yes, yes, I've told you many times that this is unrealistic."
Ever since Banning left the village, Ver had grown tired of hearing Elle talk about wanting to kill Banning.
Wei'er was a little nervous at first, but now she doesn't take it seriously at all.
Besides, Banning has been away from the village for so many days and didn't say where he was going. It wouldn't be easy to find him.
As for the risk that Banning might leak the secret, Wei'er was not worried at all.
Although they couldn't be together, she believed in Banning very much.
At this time, Rhodes, who had hardly spoken to Wei'er in the past few days, came over.
Rhodes kept his head down and didn't make eye contact with Wei'er. It was obvious that he was still very concerned about what happened before.
"Weier, I... have something to discuss with you..."
Rhodes came to ask for leave from Wei'er. He told Wei'er that Grandma Kana's old heartache had recurred and she needed the brown rock flower that grew in Shadou Canyon to cure it.
Unfortunately, the village chief Woodall and his team were busy exterminating wild boars and could not get away. The orchard happened to be relatively free now, so Rhodes planned to go to Shadou Canyon by himself.
Wei'er has been busy with the orchard these days and had no idea that Grandma Kana was sick. Surprised, she remembered the rumors about Shadou Canyon.
"Wait a minute, Rhode, isn't there a monster said to be haunting the Sand Duck Canyon? It seems to be called Stone...something demon?"
Wei'er had no grudges and spoke to Rhodes easily.
"Yeah...but it shouldn't be a big deal, right? The Gude Town Cavalry has gone on so many expeditions this year and still hasn't found it. Maybe it's gone somewhere else."
What Rhodes said made sense to a certain extent, but it was only a possibility after all. It was still very risky for him to go to Shadou Canyon like this.
However, Wei'er also knew that Rhodes and Grandma Kana had a very good relationship, and he couldn't just leave Grandma Kana alone.
"I understand. I'll go with you."
And Wei'er has always treated Grandma Kana as her own grandmother.
"Eh?"
——(Are you crazy, Wei Er?)
Rhodes and Sister Elle reacted almost at the same time.
"This is my own judgment. If you don't want to go with me, then we can act separately."
Wei'er's words left Rhodes speechless, and Rhodes had a vague feeling that since Banning left, Wei'er seemed to have become much more mature.
"Uh, that's not what I meant... it's just... this would be quite dangerous, wouldn't it? And you're a girl..."
"Rod, thank you for your concern, but you will offend the girls if you say that."
Wei'er patted Rhodes' shoulder, and it seemed as if she had become Rhodes' sister.
"Go get ready, we'll leave this afternoon."
·
Wei'er's decision to go to Shadou Canyon was not an impulsive one.
First of all, she knew very well that Rhode alone was definitely not enough, and if it were her old self, she really wouldn't be able to help much.
But now it’s different. Wei’er is no longer just Wei’er, she is one with her sister Ai’er.
Wei'er is confident in her own survival skills in the wild and in her sister Ai'er's fighting ability. Of course, unless it is absolutely necessary, she will definitely choose to escape and hide.
As for the awkwardness of being alone with Rhodes, Wei'er was a person who knew the big picture and the importance of things.
She would not let her affairs with Rhodes affect Grandma Kana's health.
So, that afternoon, Wei'er and Rhodes got ready and set off on foot towards Shadou Canyon together.
·
Along the way, Rhodes walked in front and Wei'er followed behind. The two did not speak and walked on in silence.
As they walked towards the evening, they heard the sound of horse hooves behind them, and soon the Gude Town cavalry caught up from behind.
"Strange, didn't the Gude Town Cavalry just return from the Sand Dou Canyon not long ago?"
Rhodes whispered to Wei'er that they couldn't afford to offend these cavalrymen.
At Wei'er's suggestion, Rhodes and her moved to the side of the road to let the cavalry pass first. However, the cavalry captain, Reidel, recognized Rhodes because it was Rhodes who was responsible for transporting fruits to the cavalry in Ella Village.
"Hey, isn't this Rhodes?"
Ryder raised his hand and waved, and a total of fifteen cavalrymen stopped beside Wei'er and Rhodes, giving a very oppressive feeling.
——(Want me to kill two to scare them, Wei'er?)
When Sister Ai'er saw this scene, she was not afraid but extremely excited. Wei'er hurriedly whispered to her not to do anything rash.
"Captain Ryder, good afternoon."
"Good afternoon, Captain Ryder."
Rhodes and Wei'er greeted Reidel one after another, but Reidel had no intention of getting off his horse and looked down at the two of them from above.
"Rod, you're really good, where are you going with a girl? Are you going to elope? Or do some shameful sports in the wild?"
Reidel's teasing made the soldiers laugh. Rhodes lowered his head in embarrassment, but Wei'er was not someone who could be easily bullied.
"Rod and I don't have that kind of relationship, Captain Ryder, you misunderstood."
Wei'er righteously distanced herself from the matter, and poor Rod was shot again without doing anything.
The soldiers stopped laughing now. They were all waiting to see what would happen to the girl after she offended Captain Ryder.
3.15 - Overnight on the plains
"Wow... I didn't expect there's such a courageous girl in Ella Village. Not bad, hahahaha!"
To the soldiers' surprise, Captain Ryder did not get angry, and even found the stairs with an awkward laugh.
However, Ryder was not without anger, he just held it in.
——(What's the point of bullying a girl in front of his men?)
——(Since you have such a strong personality, let me see how long you can be tough.)
Looking at the girl's innocent and lovely face, Reidel already had an idea in his mind.
"Rod, where are you going?"
Ryder turned and asked Rhodes.
Wei'er beside him quickly signaled to stop Rod, but Rod answered without thinking.
"Captain Ryder, we're going to Sand Pouch Canyon."
At this moment, Wei'er really wanted to take out needle and thread to sew Rhodes' mouth.
"What are you doing in Shadou Canyon? Don't you know there are monsters there?"
After hearing this, Reidel immediately brought up the matter of monsters. Fortunately, Rhodes' emotional intelligence was not negative. He did not say anything about the incompetence of the Gude Town Cavalry. He just said that he and Wei'er were going to find brown rock flowers to cure Grandma Kana.
"Brown rock flower... that's definitely something hard to get..."
Ryder pinched his mustache and thought for a moment, then pointed to the carriage at the end of the cavalry.
"You two young people are quite filial... How about this, you take a ride on our logistics carriage and we'll give you a ride."
——(Weier, don’t agree to him. I think this guy has bad intentions.)
Wei'er shared the same idea as her sister Ai'er, and she also didn't want to act together with the Gude Town Cavalry. However...
"Thank you, Captain Ryder!"
Rhodes was overjoyed and had already accepted the invitation, so Wei'er had to pretend to be grateful and then take it one step at a time.
·
In the carriage, besides military rations and supplies, there were only Rhodes and Wei'er.
Rhodes sat at the end of the car looking outside, while Wei'er sat quietly inside.
Wei'er had already made up her mind that she would find an excuse to leave the cavalry when she arrived at Shadou Canyon. As for Rhodes, it was up to him if he wanted to continue to move with the cavalry.
After all, they are all men, and these cavalrymen should not do anything to him.
Besides, no matter what, Ella Village is still an important supply replenishment base for the cavalry, and they cannot do anything too extreme.
——(Weier, if these soldiers dare to mess around, I will make them into human fur coats, hehe, what do you think of this idea?)
Wei'er has become accustomed to Sister Ai'er's heavy taste. She doesn't care what will be done with the soldiers' bodies. She is only worried that Sister Ai'er is overconfident.
No matter how powerful Sister Ai'er is, Wei'er doesn't think she can defeat these fifteen soldiers.
"Sister Ai'er, I'll do whatever you say, but don't take any action unless it's absolutely necessary," Wei'er whispered.
——(Don't worry, Wei'er, I know what to do.)
Sister El's "know your limits" really makes Wei'er feel uneasy.
