Chapter 817: Chapter 811: Tearing Each Other Apart in the Ditch

Her lips curled up in a faint smile as she said with a chilling coldness, "Very well, it seems you truly wish to die."

Gui Yunxi, who had just been doused with cold water, broke out in a cold sweat, but seeing his horse that was so exhausted it foamed at the mouth, he suddenly felt fearless.

It would be better to die.

This person’s mind was cruel, and he had had enough of his treatment along the way.

Very well, to die is to die, but even if he had to die, he would fight with all his might.

An eye for an eye, if he could avenge himself before he died, then it wouldn’t be a loss.

He suddenly stood up from the ditch, anger in his voice, "You’re so vicious, my horse is dead from your torment, and I haven’t lost my temper, yet you dare to get angry? If I must die, so be it, I will fight you!"

As he spoke, he was already wading through knee-high water towards Searcy.

Searcy had just gotten up, preparing to climb out of the ditch, but was unexpectedly pulled back by Gui Yunxi. Just as she was about to erupt in anger, she was once again forcefully pushed back into the ditch by Gui Yunxi, who ignored everything else.

The water in the ditch was not deep, but with all the thrashing about, it had become incredibly muddy. Searcy choked on a mouthful of mud and sand, shaking with fury.

With a kick, she easily pushed away the hungry and tired Gui Yunxi.

Gui Yunxi was no weaker, struggling to his feet and lunging at her again.

The horse in the ditch finally stopped twitching and passed away, but the two of them were not done yet.

The ditch had become completely murky with muddy sludge as they continued to grapple with each other.

"You owe me for my horse, for my carriage, I will fight you to the end..." Gui Yunxi grabbed Searcy’s flying leg.

"Owe you? How about I owe you a pack of poison instead?" Searcy grabbed his ear.

"All you do is threaten me with poison, I don’t want to live, I’ll fight you!"

"You want to die? It won’t be that easy. If I let your black-hearted guts off the hook, then I am not a Lu..."

After a lot of struggles, they finally crawled out of the mud pit, panting and gasping on the roadside.

Covered in mud, they were a sorry sight.

Searcy said with a cold laugh, "Come, let me give you the antidote!"

A pill, coated with mud, was in her hand.

"Hmph, you would be so kind?" Gui Yunxi glanced at it and turned to the water ditch ahead, where the water was clean.

I knew you wouldn’t want it.

"Oh? You don’t want it?" Searcy tossed the antidote into the mud and said indifferently, "This is your own doing, not that I haven’t paid my fare. Ha, I’ll wait for you to beg me!"

With that, she walked in another direction, where, likewise, there was clean water.

After washing the filth from her body, she took some things out of the carriage and went to a nearby forest.

In the forest, she saw Gui Yunxi picking up firewood. Looking down at her own clothes soaked through, she gathered some wood as well.

She had been confined to a large household from a young age and knew in theory how to make fire, but she had never actually done it, so she did not know how to start a fire.

After collecting a pile of firewood, she took out a flint and tried to strike it as she had seen others do, but couldn’t get a flame. Eventually, she could only stare blankly at the pile of firewood.

Searcy felt like she had been dealt a tremendous blow.

She considered herself to be supremely intelligent, believing there was nothing she couldn’t do, it was only a matter of whether she was willing.

Something as simple as starting a fire, she would be able to do it just by watching once, so how could she not light it?

Could it be her flint was a fake?

Yes, that must be it.

So she threw her flint on the ground and haughtily made her way over to where Gui Yunxi was, looking down on him from above.
