After a while, Rui Qier slowly stopped her tears, and after wiping away the
tears, she suddenly became a little shy again. Feeling that I was embarrassed
in front of my friends, I was a little embarrassed to say to Lorrain Hill, if
she wanted her not to tell other people what happened today, Lorrain Hill
agreed with a smile.
Everyone has a dark history, and there are always some extraordinary thoughts
and impulses when they are young, which is not a bad thing. It's just that
some people gave up their dreams and jumped into the big dye tank of society,
and then laughed at those who chased their dreams as people who passed by.
They thought they were great, and they understood the essence of society.
Regardless of past and present, Lorrain Hill hates such people.

There is only one kind of true heroism in the world, and that is to know the
truth of life and still love it.
---------------------
Two days later, in front of the Kempe City Mansion.
"Don’t play for a few more days, Lacey." Rachel watched the Carrites Chamber
of Commerce orderly loading cargo and luggage, ready to set off. She was a
little bit disappointed, looking at her friend in front of her, even though
she knew him. It's only been a few days, but it seems to have met a soulmate.
Among the peers around her, a few older brothers are away all year round, busy
with business or other things. The other girls in the same circle in Kempe
basically care about dresses, perfumes, clothes and the like every day.
Occasionally a few will light musical instruments, that's an incredible thing.
After all, the atmosphere of the Verga Business Alliance is like this. The
entire country is highly profitable. Everything looks at money. The cultural
and entertainment industries are only available in a few large coastal cities,
and more of them are arty, used to decorate their identity.
In terms of literature and drama, the most prosperous is the Green Empire,
followed by the Kingdom of Sanctuary, and their religious operas are also
famous on the mainland.
"Sorry, Rachel. I have to go to Hopelander this time. I have a lot to do. I
will meet again when I have time. This is for you." Lorrain Hill handed Rachel
a velvet box , Let her go back and open it again.
"Then, see you next time."
Lorrain Hill stood in front of the carriage, wearing a light-colored dress,
and the sun shone sparsely on her hair through the dense shade of the trees.
As a summer breeze blew along the street, she held down the sunhat on her head
to prevent it from being blown away, her long hair fluttered in the wind, and
then waved goodbye to this friend.
After two days of refurbishment and replenishment, the members of the Calites
Chamber of Commerce have also got a good rest, and they set off again today.
With the whip drawn, the convoy started slowly, and finally slowly disappeared
outside the city gate.
Ruiqier stood in front of the mansion, watching Lorrain Hill’s carriage walked
a long way, and then turned her head.
Jelink looked at his daughter with a reluctant appearance, and his mood was a
bit complicated. Will the next generation of Calites and Yagertilin continue
their previous friendship? Is this new friend my daughter met for good or bad?
It all depends on the performance of Miss Lacey in Hopelander.
On the carriage, Lorrain Hill asked, looking at the scenery going away from
the window.
"How many goods did you buy at Yagertylin's this time?"
"According to your previous orders, Miss, we mainly purchased some easy-to-
carry pearls and jewelry this time, and the rest are only food and supplies
needed on the road." Chelsea began to report the quantity of goods carried
this time.
"Well, try your best to move forward with light. Since the other party dared
to attack Angus at the border, he would not rule out attacking us at home."
"Although I don't know what they are for, we do what they don't want us to do.
They want Calites to fall, so we can't fall. If we stop this time, they will
have Next action. After a long time, it will naturally become clear what they
are for."
In this way, the Carrites Chamber of Commerce fleet passed a few days
steadily, and it was getting closer and closer to Hopelander.
More than a dozen horse-drawn carriages moved along the road halfway up the
mountain. There was a gust of wind in the mountains, and some leaves were
picked up by the wind and flew up on the road.
Lorrain Hill looked at the densely clouded sky, and had a foreboding that it
might rain heavily tonight. When others were not paying attention, the faint
brilliance of her pupils turned, and the extraordinary sequence changed from a
demon sequence to a natural sequence. Then closed his eyes and began to listen
to the information of the nearby nature.
After a while, her eyes opened, revealing a worried expression, thought for a
while, and then knocked on the front partition of the car.
"Are there any orders, Miss." The butler Serres' voice came from ahead.
"Let the convoy stop at the place where it turned in front, that place is
relatively flat, then stationed on the spot, and stayed here tonight."
"Don't you keep going, Huangye Town is on the road after three more hills. It
is safer there and the living conditions are much better."
"No, just stop here." Lorrain Hill's tone was firm.
"Okay, follow your arrangement." Then Seres called several riders next to him
and asked them to tell the team in front to stop here.
A few riders in armor came out and drove their horses to a trot on the
mountain road. As the front team received orders, the entire convoy stopped
slowly, and then began to lead the carriage to the side of the road and start
camping.
Some people went to the nearby woods to get some firewood, while others
started to set up tents.
Lorrain Hill also walked down from the carriage and observed the surroundings.
It happened to be a relatively flat place on the mountainside, with a road on
one side and the bottom of a mountain on the other.
After looking at it for a while, she asked her men to tow the carriage to the
clearing and arrange them in two rows to separate the road from the clearing.
Then she had some thick logs prepared and tied with ropes to make a wooden
fence. Before and after the road, the passage was blocked.
"Miss, what are you?" Chelsea looked a little puzzled. With such layers of
cards, are you preparing to confront the enemy, but how did Miss Lacey know
that there will be an enemy coming?
"Well, I don't know if the other party will act tonight, but it is prepared."
Lorrain Hill raised his head and looked at the darkened sky. There was a cool
and moist breath in the wind, and the rain was about to come and wind all over
the building. .
Then she called the captains of the chamber of commerce riders over, divided
them into two parts, took turns to rest tonight, and put on armor when
sleeping, and kept their weapons on.
After thinking for a while, she was still a little worried. She took out the
two boxes of [Invigorating Blood Potion] she had with her, and distributed
them to each team leader 3, asking them to be extra careful tonight. If any
team member is injured, drink one. As long as it is not a mortal injury, it
can basically save a life.
"Thank you Miss Lacey!"
After receiving the potion, several captains expressed gratitude loudly, and
then carefully put it away and put it in a close-fitting package. They walked
all the year round, so naturally they understand the value of extraordinary
medicine. In this era when there are no hospitals and the treatment conditions
are extremely poor, this medicine is likely to represent a life. This is not a
laugh, but a valuable experience gained from the tip of a knife.
Although they are all taking money to sell their lives with everyone, the
behavior of this eldest lady is like a warm stream of heat flowing in their
hearts. The concern revealed in those clear eyes made these riders a little
moved. In this country where interests are valued and people are indifferent,
such sincere care is extremely precious.
After ordered everything, the sky was completely dark, a large bonfire rose,
and a group of people began to cook food. Dried meat and potatoes are boiled
into a thick soup, and then the dried noodles are dipped in the soup, or they
are torn apart and softened in the soup. This is the dinner for the riders. As
the firewood crackled and burned, bursts of fragrance began to spread around
the fire.
"Miss, your dinner is ready."
While Lorraine Hill was still thinking about what else could be prepared and
planned ahead of time, Chelsea’s voice came from her side, telling her that
dinner was ready on the carriage.
"Don't be so troublesome, just bring it here."
"That's not good, there are too many people here..."
Although Chelsea is not the maid of the noble family~www.mtlnovel.com~, many
rules and etiquette are still well understood. It is not suitable for
unmarried noble ladies to eat in front of a large group of men.
Sitting in front of the campfire, Lorrain Hill raised his head and looked at
the scene in front of him. In twos and threes, the riders were cooking soup in
an iron pot, squatting on the ground and eating dough, like a construction
site in a previous life.
"Let's leave the bread for me, and distribute the other fruits and grilled
meat to everyone."
Chelsea is still a little reluctant, which seems to go against her usual maid
principle.
"Don't worry about that, Sister Chelsea, just do as I say."
"Ok..."
Then Chelsea sliced up the fruits and grilled meat on the Lorrain Hill
dinner plate and distributed them to these horse-riders, while the girl sat by
the fire and slowly ate the leftover bread. In fact, it wouldn't matter if she
didn't eat for a few days. The endurance and physical strength of an
extraordinary person are not comparable to ordinary people, and she is still a
very special kind.
There was no accident after dinner. The mountain road was still very quiet and
no travelers passed by. Maybe it was because it was about to rain and everyone
stopped. In this way, the riders also took turns to rest in two batches
according to the previous arrangement.
In the middle of the night, seven or eight guards were guarded by the bonfire,
and there were snoring noises from the nearby tent. At this time, big
raindrops began to fall from the sky. After a while, the rapid rain poured
down from the sky like a pouring.
The bonfire was quickly extinguished, and it was plunged into darkness. Only
the sound of rain hitting the leaves could be heard.
At this time, Lorrain Hill in the tent suddenly opened his eyes, "Is it
finally here?"
There were rushes of horseshoes stepping from the distance on the mountain
road, but under the cover of the sound of rain in the mountains, it seemed
very secret and weird.
