I survived as a female assassin

Chapter 137 Seeking help

If she hadn't come to the capital to detoxify herself, she probably wouldn't have suffered this misfortune...

The dead middle-aged man seemed very important to her.

"Jiemie, take someone to escort her secretly."

"Don't let her have any more accidents!"

"Yes, Your Highness."

Jiemie didn't dare to be vague, but he couldn't help but think in his heart, wasn't it Jixue who was responsible for protecting others in the past?

He seldom leaves His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

It was Xin Youran's first time driving a horse-drawn carriage. Fortunately, the horses raised by Lao Li were very docile. She actually didn't know the way back to Crescent Valley, but she knew how to find the deaf-mute brother from before. He was also a frequent visitor of Lao Li and must know the way back.

Mu Yuan actually did get a coffin, but it was too heavy, and there was no way he could pull it to Crescent Moon Valley. He could only temporarily inconvenience Lao Li, as long as he could return to Crescent Moon Valley...

She carried Lao Li to the carriage. Perhaps this was the first and last time he would ride in her carriage as a passenger.

Xin Youran was quite conspicuous as she drove through the streets in a carriage riddled with arrows, and she was covered in blood...

But she didn't care about that, she had to get to the pick-up point she had agreed with Lao Li as soon as possible.

She believed that the deaf and mute brother would definitely be there.

She doesn't even have a driver's license, but unexpectedly her carriage driving skills are amazing!

No, this should be the original owner's technique of driving a carriage. This skill belongs to muscle memory.

Just like I had sensed when she first came through, she was very strong!

After arriving near Anhe Pharmacy, she parked the carriage at the usual place.

I looked around for a long time, but didn't see the deaf-mute brother.

Did I miscalculate?

She decided to wait for another stick of incense. If nothing worked, she would have to set off the life-saving fireworks that Leng Yue gave her.

Not long after, Xin Youran saw a person walking out of Anhe Pharmacy and walking straight towards her.

He looks very much like the deaf-mute brother, but the clothes he wears should be those of a drug store clerk.

She didn't dare to scream.

"What happened?"

"You are hurt?"

"Where are Leng Yue and Lao Li?"

After he asked these three questions, Xin Youran was sure that the person in front of her was the "deaf and mute" brother she thought he was.

It turns out he just doesn't want to talk...

"It's hard to explain in a few words. I need your help."

As he spoke, Xin Youran led the "deaf-mute" brother, the clerk of Anhe Pharmacy, to the carriage.

When he saw Lao Li lying motionless in the carriage, he had already guessed the result.

"We were attacked on the way to the capital. There were three waves of enemies, at least two factions."

"Old Li was stabbed..."

"Leng Yue's arm was also wounded by an arrow, but it wasn't serious and has been bandaged. The arrow was poisonous, but the poison has been detoxified."

Seeing him, I felt inexplicably relieved. Now Lao Li can go home soon...

"Be quiet and get in the carriage."

Seeing his alert look, Xin Youran didn't say another word and quickly got on the carriage.

Then she opened a crack in the curtains of the carriage to see what was happening outside.

"Hey, Lao Guan, the shopkeeper is looking for you, why are you out?"

Outside was a guy wearing the same clothes as the "deaf-mute" brother.

"Please tell the shopkeeper that something happened at home and I have to go back right away."

Seeing the anxious look on the face of the deaf-mute elder brother, the man said repeatedly, "Okay, I'll go tell the shopkeeper right away. Then, Lao Guan, you go ahead and do your work."

The "deaf-mute" brother watched the clerk walk into the pharmacy before getting on the carriage, which soon started moving.

Laoguan?

Is this “deaf-mute” brother’s surname Guan?

The way he spoke to his colleagues was gentle and humble, completely different from the "deaf and mute" brother she had met, they were completely two different people!

Now is not the time to be curious about others. Xin Youran looked at Old Li who was lying motionless in the carriage in front of her.

I remember the words he said before he died.

"I, Old Li, should have died two years ago. Thanks to Miss Ying, I have lived this long."

Obviously, Lao Li should be very familiar with the original owner.

Did Xueying help Lao Li two years ago?

But why didn't he say a few words to her?

She would ask the old monster about it after she got back.

Before, she didn’t want to know too much about the original owner. She always thought that since she came here, she still wanted to live her own life and didn’t want to be influenced or controlled by others.

But this series of events happened, and someone died because of her.

She couldn't just ignore it anymore...

Xin Youran, who was lost in thought, noticed that the carriage suddenly stopped. She quickly lifted the curtain and looked outside.

We have arrived at the city gate. There is no curfew in the entire capital. Even if you want to leave or enter the city at night, you can enter and leave freely as long as you have a pass.

But at this moment there were many soldiers guarding the city gate, and every person and vehicle coming in and out had to be checked.

"I'll go and ask about the situation first."

Lao Guan left a word and walked towards the city gate.

Xin Youran's heart was pounding. No matter what those officers and soldiers were investigating, there was a dead body on their carriage at the moment!

There is definitely no way to leave the city gate, and there is a high possibility that he will be detained and handed over to the Dali Temple.

The timing was too coincidental. Could it be the person behind the killing of them on the road?

The reason why checkpoints and inspections were set up at this time might be to find them!

How can this be good?

Do you want to ask Mu Yuan for help?

Xin Youran quietly got off the carriage. When she first saw Lao Li's carriage, she found it unique. It had so many functions. It could not only carry people and goods, cook, and carry weapons, but its wheels were also different from those of other carriages.

Old Li is a meticulous person, perhaps there are some mechanisms in this carriage that she has not discovered.

She first knocked around her body and didn't find anything strange.

He lay on the ground again, trying to see if there were any mechanisms on the chassis of the carriage.

When she looked at the center of the chassis, she saw what looked like a red cloth strip tied on it.

Suddenly I saw hope.

She lay on her back on the ground, then moved under the car little by little.

When she touched the red cloth, she found that it was wrapped around it. When she took it off, she realized that it was very long. She unfolded the red cloth, and then pulled the other end of the cloth out with her hand.

As the strip of cloth grew longer, her body moved out from under the carriage, and the strip of cloth was just enough to reach the outside of the carriage.

She squatted down and tried to pull it out gently, only to hear a "dong" sound, as if something fell down.

Xin Youran didn't have time to think and threw down the cloth strip and hurriedly got on the carriage. Seeing that Lao Li was still lying in the same position, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then she was surprised to see that this carriage was really full of secrets!
