Urging the horse forward, Xia Wenjin arrived at Linyan Slope as night fell.
Upon arrival, she smiled bitterly, realizing she had forgotten the time.
According to Ling Xiao, the day he would lose his arm was three days later during the daytime. She had come too early, and arriving directly here, a place with no villages ahead or inns behind, she would have to camp out in the wilderness.
Fortunately, sleeping in the open was not unfamiliar to her.
# There is a forest to the right, and Xia Wenjin led her horse inside, letting it graze freely.
The weather was warm now, so even at night, there was no need to start a fire. At the edge of the forest, she sprinkled a circle of insect-repellent powder around a tree, creating a zone where snakes, bugs, rats, and mosquitoes would not bother her, and she could sleep peacefully for a night.
Still, she needed to eat something.
