193 Experiential Learning
Su Xuexuan enjoyed eating his aunt’s cooking. However, he ate his lunch bit by bit because he knew his aunt had left. He did not know when Su Binglan would return, after all.
Then he realized his uncle hardly touched his chopsticks. Luo Jin’an never ate that little in the past.
Luo Jin’an looked at the sumptuous food, sighed, and said, “I’m not hungry, but you two should hurry up and eat.”
A child could never understand an adult’s thoughts, no matter how intelligent they were. Su Xuexuan believed it when Luo Jin’an said he was not hungry, so he and his brother continued eating.
…
Su Binglan and Lin Zheng rode their horses at high speed without stopping. Lin Zheng did not know where his boss was going, so he followed behind Su Binglan.
Su Binglan rode so fast that Lin Zheng had trouble following her. Still, he knew he had to keep up with his boss no matter what. He rode his horse at high speed and focused on his boss’s horse, not daring to be careless.
If he lost focus, he would lose sight of his boss. Moreover, he did not know where he was going.
Although Su Binglan was going at breakneck speeds, she knew how far Lin Zheng was behind her. She controlled her speed so Lin Zheng could keep up with her.
Su Binglan did not plan on resting during her journey. That’s why she had made several prior preparations before leaving.
She carried a straw bag and not a backpack similar to Luo Jin’an’s because she did not want to attract unnecessary attention.
She only packed two symbolic clothes in her straw bag, but many other things in her pocket dimension, including silver. It was safer to keep more important things there, anyway.
Su Binglan also made pound cakes, so a few bites would keep them full for a whole day.
The duo passed by a small road under a mountain forest at night. Su Binglan slowed her horse down and waited for Lin Zheng to ride over. She said, “You must’ve worked hard to follow me, right?”
Lin Zheng shook his head. “No, I felt refreshed instead. I never thought I could ride so fast.”
He did not need to think about anything besides following his boss. However, doing that also trained his horse to run faster while making Lin Zheng more courageous.
He stopped his horse and rested for a while. Feeling delighted because he never thought he could ride so fast.
Su Binglan noticed it all and said, “Yes, riding a horse is fun, isn’t it?”
Lin Zheng did not feel anything when others praised him, but he was thrilled whenever Su Binglan did. After all, she was his boss and master.
“I will practice more, Boss!”
Su Binglan removed the pound cake from her bag and gave a piece to Lin Zheng. She also removed a water canister and said, “Let’s have a quick snack now and rush to the next town to rest.”
“You must’ve made these, huh? Others can’t buy this, so it must be delicious, right, Boss?” Lin Zheng said.
To him, eating his boss’s food was a blessing. He took a bite and thought it looked thick. It was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with a hint of sweetness.
Lin Zheng did not even need to eat the pound cake to know it would be delicious. He took a sip of water and thought it tasted sweet and delicious.
“Boss, did the cake make this water taste sweet? I took a sip and felt all my fatigue disappear.”
If others heard that, they would think Lin Zheng was just trying to flatter his boss, but he was speaking the truth.
Su Binglan knew it because she used a unique method to make the pound cake. She made it with plenty of spiritual spring water, so the water Lin Zheng drank would taste different.
Moreover, the spiritual spring water could eliminate fatigue while boosting one’s spirit and increasing stamina. Lin Zheng felt different when he ingested it.
The duo quickly ate, and Su Binglan said, “All right. Let’s continue on our journey.”
“Yes, Boss!” Lin Zheng was energetic after eating and drinking. However, he remembered something and asked, “Oh, where are we going?”
“To the capital, of course.” The path Su Binglan took was to the capital.
Lin Zheng opened his mouth in surprise.
‘We’re going to the capital? That’s so far away, and there’s a war going on there.’
Su Binglan noticed Lin Zheng’s expression and said, “What’s the matter? Don’t you want to go to the capital?”
Lin Zheng shook his head. “That’s not it, Boss. I’ll protect you with my kung fu!”
Su Binglan said smilingly, “Don’t worry. I can guarantee our safety no matter how fierce the war is. I’ll bring you back to the town in one piece. I brought you with me to train you.”
Since Lin Zheng sometimes called her “master,” it was only natural that Su Binglan would focus on training him.
Su Binglan’s words moved Lin Zheng. “You’re so good to me, Boss!”
Su Binglan waved her hand and said, “All right, but I’ll be strict.”
Lin Zheng scratched the back of his head and smiled. “I should hope so, Master. Pressure creates diamonds, after all.”
Su Binglan smiled lightly, “Okay, stop being so humble. The journey will be arduous.”
“I’m not afraid of hardships, Master.” Previously, Lin Zheng wanted to call Su Binglan “master,” but he feared she would be unhappy. Hence, he would only call her that sometimes.
Su Binglan said, “All right, let’s set off.”
“Yes, Master!” Lin Zheng was full of enthusiasm.
The duo continued to ride their horses and rested at a nearby inn at night. Then they set off again the following morning.
After traveling for two days, they arrived at the prefectural city in the evening. When the duo entered the prefectural city, Lin Zheng could feel how different it was from Tenghe Town.
He looked at the roads on both sides and sighed with emotion. “This is the prefectural city, so it should be more prosperous. It doesn’t look that way to me. Instead, it’s similar to Tenghe town, except the streets are more spacious and some houses are bigger here.”
Su Binglan narrowed her eyes. “Didn’t mention Dingzhou being a barren state?”
Lin Zheng replied, “That’s not the case. Still, my sister got married and moved to the capital.”
Su Binglan asked, “Are you worried about your sister?”
Lin Zheng shook his head. “My sister is fine. We’re in a hurry to get somewhere. We’re not here to visit relatives.”
Su Binglan sighed approvingly because Lin Zheng knew what was important. “You can visit your sister when our journey is over.”
“Thank you, Master.”
“Of course.”
Several people were on the streets during the evening. The duo got down from their horses and led them into the prefectural city.
Lin Zheng said, “Boss, I realized that Dingzhou is indeed barren. We passed by many villages and towns. I noticed how difficult everyone’s lives are.”
Su Binglan said, “We don’t know what the situation will be like when there’s a war. It’s good enough that commoners can eat safely.”
“That’s true.”
At that moment, a group of people passed by on the street. They were soldiers escorting a carriage filled with weapons.
