"How's it going?"
As soon as Mu Ying returned, the night watch hurriedly asked. It had been so long without any news, they were worried to death.
"It's all taken care of. There shouldn't be any problems tonight," yawned Mu Ying, feeling somewhat drowsy.
"Then you should go get some rest right away. It's already the latter half of the night, and it won't be long before daylight."
Mu Ying nodded, went back to her tent, and fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow. There shouldn't be any more complications tonight.
She slept until dawn and finally regained some of her energy.
After eating something simple, they were on the road again. Mu Ying sat on the horse-drawn carriage, her head nodding off little by little.
Suddenly, the procession came to a halt, and she quickly straightened up, "What's the matter?"
"There's a trap ahead on the road with a dead wild deer in it," reported Guan Hai, returning from scouting ahead.
