Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 1352: Chapter 1151: Finally Out_1 Chapter 1352: Chapter 1151: Finally Out_1 Yupo Prefecture, named for its abundance of various dried sea fish, was a place where the scent of the sea seemed to hit one upon entering its bounds.

Tong Sanlang stopped on the official road. The message he received by the side of Cloud Lake was for him to come to Yuhu, but it did not specify where exactly in Yuhu he should go. He looked around, seeking information.

A moment later, he sprang up from his horseback and leapt into the air.

Looking down from above, some trees in the nearby woods could be seen cut off halfway up, and these truncated trees formed two characters: Huan Kang.

Huan Kang, these two words spun in Tong Sanlang’s mind, and he furrowed his brow.

Having landed back on his horse, he urged it towards Huan Kang.

Huan Kang was a small seaside town, surrounded by undulating hills dotted with many trees, making it truly difficult to spot a person if they were hidden.

Whoever planned this terrain was up to no good.

However, on his way to Huan Kang, passing through Yupo Prefecture City, he made a detour to Ji Wei Ju. This time, he didn’t just briefly stop by; he stayed in Yupo’s Ji Wei Ju for a whole day, and only after that day did he set off for Huan Kang again.

Far away from Capital City in the southeastern region, with sparse population and few paths, it took him a whole five days to finally reach Huan Kang.

Though a small town, Huan Kang was equipped with a large gate, and beyond it, a scattering of fishing boats lay anchor.

He looked at the gate of the small town of Huan Kang, his lips pursing. On the gate, there was an arrow pointing towards the sea, with four characters beneath it: Set Sail Out to Sea.

Set Sail Out to Sea, he glanced at the small wooden boats beside him and sighed in resignation.

He had originally thought the other party would set up an ambush in the hills, so he asked the Shopkeeper of Yupo’s Ji Wei Ju for some medicine to avoid local poisonous insects and miasma. Little did he know, the other party didn’t choose Huan Kang as the battlefield; they wanted him to go out to sea.

It was already late summer, but as this place was in the southeast, the weather was still scorching hot.

He dismounted, leading his horse slowly towards the seaside. The small town was just five miles away from the shore, and he walked slowly over, sitting down on a rock to eat his lunch.

After lunch, he found a comfortable position and rested against a rock.

Having been led by the nose for a month, he hadn’t even managed to see the Zhang Family’s face, let alone continue the arduous journey.

Set to sea.

With just the shabby and decrepit little boats by the small town, once he set out to sea, he wouldn’t need the other party to lay hands on him; he would likely meet his demise on his own.

Upon waking from his nap, he found himself alone, the sea breeze blowing fiercely, the sun blazing down. Leading his horse, he slowly made his way back.

Approaching the town, the large gate of the small town remained closed. He mounted his horse and called out loudly to the gate, “People inside, listen up. I will count from one to ten. If you do not show yourselves by then, I will return to Capital City the way I came.”

Without even granting him an audience, they expected to deceive him into setting out to sea. He was not that foolish.

“One, two, three, four… eight, nine, ten.”

After the count reached ten, he stared at the town gate for a few moments. It was still motionless.

Without any hesitation, he turned around and headed back the way he came.

Having walked less than a mile and just as he was about to turn a corner, a raspy and coarse voice suddenly called out from behind, “Who would have thought Tong Sanlang to be such a coward, too scared to even save his own mother.”

“Hmmm–,” Tong Sanlang reined in his horse upon hearing this and turned his head to look back.

There stood a person clad in a black robe and black face scarf on the top of a tree. He hooked his mouth into a smirk, “So you’ve finally decided to show yourself?”
