my grandmother

As the evening approached, it began to drizzle.

A Wu first put the oil coat on her horse carefully, then put it on herself, and rode to catch up with the crowd.

Ah Nan's itinerary has always been tightly packed, and she was supposed to arrive at Jinling City just after dark, but now that she made a detour, she would have to arrive at the city at two quarters of an hour at night.

"Girls, sit still, the horses have to run." The coachman turned around and confessed, and threw out a loud whip, urging the two horses to run.

Not long after running, the car stopped suddenly.

Li Xiaonan was looking at the drizzle in the twilight through the gauze curtain, and she was shaken so hard that she knocked her head on the carriage board, luckily the carriage board was covered with cotton.

"This is a murderous formation! Yuting!" Ah Wu's voice came.

"Kill..." Li Xiaonan didn't finish asking who to kill, a sharp and ear-piercing whistle sounded, followed by an explosion.

Li Xiaonan was stumped by the sound of the explosion. Is this a bomb?Is there a bomb here?

Yu Ting had already rushed out to sit in the coachman's seat, and the coachman jumped out of the cart, holding the two restless horses tightly.

"What should we do?" Wan Qing leaned out of the car with her upper body, and shouted at the leader of the tailgate.

"Responsiveness, it's okay, I'm here!" Yu Ting responded, and pulled the curtain vigorously, but failed to pull it down, "Why is the curtain so strong! It's in the way!"

"I'll come, I'll come!" Wan Qing shook her hands and tied the curtains on both sides of the car door.

"Who is it?" Li Xiaonan was dazed, and squeezed out from Wan Qing's side, "What exploded just now?"

"I don't know." Yu Ting fixed his eyes on Ah Wu who rushed to the front, and answered casually.

"Can you hold the horse?" the coachman asked Yuting.

Yuting nodded quickly.

"Here, can you use a knife? Hold the knife well. In case the horse is startled and cannot hold it anymore, just cut it here and here." The coachman confessed briefly, and pulled out a long handle from under the cart. Changdao, rushed to the back of the cart in a few steps, untied a spare horse, got on the horse, and joined the three long followers guarding the cart.

"Are the coachmen in your house so capable of fighting and killing?" Li Xiaonan looked up at the calm and agile coachman.

"I don't know either." Wan Qing stood next to Li Xiaonan, wiping the rain from her face.

"Should we run away? Where are we going?" Li Xiaonan looked around.

In front, Ah Wu was riding a horse. The horse looked extremely excited, running back and forth between the post road and the nearby woods.

The other long follower is also a long spear, riding on a horse, staggering back and forth with A Wu.

"Is this a battle formation?" Li Xiaonan looked at the two horses and two horses who kept staggering back and forth, and heard the howling and screaming, and asked Wan Qing.

"I don't know!" Wan Qing cried and trembled, looking at the gangsters who were scurrying back and forth with sharp machetes beside the post road.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here!" Li Xiaonan patted Wan Qing.

"You run faster than me, and you run desperately for a while..."

"I can't run, you two can't outrun them." Yu Ting interrupted Wan Qing.

"There are so many of them... charging up! Ugh!" Li Xiaonan watched a gangster who was charging forward with a long tail, and then drew out the gun. The barrel of the gun turned half a circle, and the blood mist and drizzle collided together.

"Good marksmanship!" Ah Wu yelled excitedly, and the tip of the gun pierced another gangster who was charging to kill with a knife.

"Do you want to kill all those people?" Li Xiaonan's voice trembled a little.

It was the first time she had witnessed a murder with her own eyes.

"No, just kill a few more to scare them away." Yu Ting leaned forward and patted the two horses.

The two horses smelled blood, but became quiet.

"There are so many of us! Let's go together! Let's go together!" Someone shouted in the woods on both sides of the road.

"What are they calling?" Wan Qing and Yu Ting asked Li Xiaonan together.

"Fight the gun at the front and die, follow behind!" Li Xiaonan yelled first, and then said: "He said that there are too many of them to charge together, so I let them follow behind."

There was a pause around for a moment, and a series of cursing suddenly broke out.

"What did they say?" Yuting and Wan Qing asked Li Xiaonan again.

"Swearing, it's all in Jinling dialect, and I can't understand it." Li Xiaonan pricked up her ears, and she could understand three or five sentences out of ten.

"How many died?" Li Xiaonan asked Yuting.

"Three are dead, and two are about to die." Yu Ting stretched his neck to watch the battle.

"Oh, it's better to die with one shot." Li Xiaonan subconsciously tightened her shoulders when she heard the screams.

"It's just to let them scream, the worse they scream, the more scared others will be." Yu Ting tugged at his earlobe.

She also didn't want to listen to such inhuman screams.

"They stopped rushing forward, what should we do? Is it just so exhausting?" Li Xiaonan was not so scared anymore.

"I don't know. If it's just me and Ah Wu, we should run away now." Yuting stood up and looked around.

There was a vague scream in the distance, and a firework exploded in the sky.

The leader guarding the front of the car immediately raised a cylinder over his head, the same piercing whistle sounded as before, and a firework exploded above their heads.

"This is a messenger, we have reinforcements." Li Xiaonan understood.

Sure enough, not long after, a faint sound of horseshoes was heard.

Among the gangsters on both sides of the post road, some turned around and fled.

"Take two alive!" Chang Sui ordered.

The sound of hoofbeats was getting closer and closer, spreading around.

Yu Ting let out a long sigh of relief, the coachman jumped off the horse, tied the horse behind the cart, sat in front of the cart, and signaled Yu Ting to go in.

The car ran slowly and gradually picked up speed.

There are many shops on the two or three mile roads outside Jinling City, and the bustle is no different from that in the city. Most of the prefectures and counties on Liangzhe Road are like this.

Li Xiaonan's weaving school is for women in villages and towns, and the schools closest to the county are also set up outside the city. This time, Li Xiaonan and his party are looking for accommodation outside the city, but today, the long-term follow-up The boss directed the coachman, went straight into the inner city, and picked an inn, Chang Sui didn't know what the boss said to the shopkeeper, but the shopkeeper with a pale face, directed all the guys, and quickly emptied the inn.

Li Xiaonan silently watched everyone busy in a clear order.

She has never experienced the assassination, and it seems that these long-term attendants are very sophisticated.

Does Gu Yan often encounter this kind of thing?Or is it that Prince Rui's Palace often handles this kind of thing?

Ah Wu's eyes were bright, he was more excited than nervous. He entered the inn, took off his blood-stained clothes and threw them to Yu Ting. He led the horse out and fed a few apples. He hugged the horse's head and kissed again and again. Wash the blood stains on the horse finely.

Her horse is really competitive today.

Wan Qing stared at Li Xiaonan closely.

Li Xiaonan sat at the door, watching Yuting wash clothes.

Wan Qing was sitting next to Li Xiaonan, with her arms folded in front of her chest, shivering into a ball, she was not cold, she just wanted to shrink up.

"You said, who are they here to kill?" After a while, Li Xiaonan looked at Wan Qing and asked.

"You! You don't need to ask!" Wan Qing shrinks back again.

"Why are you killing me?"

"Yeah, why?" Wan Qing nodded outside, "They took a life."

The easy-going coachmen all looked stern, coming and going in a hurry, Li Xiaonan suppressed her doubts, it might not be very safe right now, let's talk about it when they are busy.
