Space peasant girl: sweet and sassy

Chapter 176 The Assassination of Xiaojiu
Luo Xiaojiu came back from Luojia Village by carriage.

When Dean Chen learned that she was going home, he lent her his carriage and told the groom to wait for her to come back together.

Therefore, Luo Xiaojiu also went back in a carriage.

The official road taken by the carriage arrived in the town soon.

The roads in this era are not developed enough, and if you want to go to the county seat, you have to go through the town.

As it is now approaching evening, many migrant workers have already left their work, and the traffic in the town is much higher than during the day.

After Luo Xiaojiu came to this era, it was the first time he saw so many people in the town, so he raised the curtains of the car and looked outside.

Although it was not yet dark, lanterns were already lit outside some shops.

Men and women in all kinds of costumes, couples shopping together, and brothers and sisters going home together, it was very lively.

Luo Xiaojiu watched all the way
When passing by the door of a tavern, she saw a couple happily walking out of the tavern with their two children.

The clothes of the four are very simple, but each face is filled with happiness.

Suddenly, Luo Xiaojiu was very envious.

In the last life, when she was recognized by her biological parents, she thought she would be the happiest person in that world.

Because she has parents.

As a result, reality sent her into the abyss.

Before she died, she had thought that if she hadn't followed her biological parents back to that luxurious city
If she has been living in the country with grandma
Then, at that time, would she have been married? She should have a husband who loves her and children who accompany her.
At the same time, the grandma is kind and the parents-in-law are kind.

She slowly closed her eyes, leaving the last tear in the corner of her eyes, the breath gradually dissipated, and she finally understood.
It turns out that the real happiness is that the family is alive.

When she came to this world, she no longer wanted money and wealth, but only wanted grandma to be healthy and safe. Perhaps, in the days to come,
She can be like that couple too.
Harmonious husband and wife, both children.

Thinking about it, Luo Xiaojiu's eyes turned red, and there seemed to be an inexplicable fire burning in her chest, which made her heart beat fast.

She doesn't know what's wrong with herself?
Until the fire burned out, she suddenly felt that her body was indescribably light, and even her breathing was much easier than before.

The carriage continued on.

Luo Xiaojiu raised the curtain and wanted to continue looking at the scenery outside.

But just as she lifted the curtain of the car, a short arrow suddenly flew towards her.

The speed of the short arrow is very fast, if Luo Xiaojiu doesn't know martial arts, I'm afraid I have to give it to this arrow today, but she can
Seeing that the short arrow was about to shoot in, Luo Xiaojiu quickly dodged, and the not very long short arrow swished past her.

The coachman who was driving in front also heard the sound of short arrows, so he wanted to stop the carriage to see if she was injured.

Luo Xiaojiu hurriedly stopped him, "Let's go!"

She didn't know whose arrow it was, but she could be sure that it was no accident that the arrow shot at her, someone must have done it on purpose.

So, if there is the first one, there will definitely be a second one.

They must leave quickly.

Luo Xiaojiu's guess was right, the groom was about to speed up when a short arrow that was the same as before flew towards him.

People who can follow Chen Wenqing are definitely not vegetarians, even a groom is a hidden martial arts master.

Seeing the groom speeding up the carriage, he yelled to Luo Xiaojiu in the carriage, "Sit down, girl, the old man is going to speed up."

While the whip is shining brightly, it accurately repells the short arrow.

On the roof of a nearby teahouse, a masked man in black flew quickly, and bright red blood dripped to the ground.

As soon as Luo Xiaojiu saw his figure, the man in black quickly disappeared.

The driver also saw the man in black, and seeing him disappear, the driving speed gradually slowed down, and he stopped slowly.

Now there is still some distance to Qingfeng Academy, something must have happened when the carriage stopped, Luo Xiaojiu was immediately vigilant.

She did not stick her head out to ask, but waited for the coachman to speak.

In the end, before the coachman could say anything, he heard a familiar voice, "May I ask, is Miss Luo in the car?"

Luo Xiaojiu frowned, listening to the voice.
It was Zhan Xun who went to Luo's house to buy strawberries from her last time!

Luo Xiaojiu didn't make a sound, listening to the coachman's answer to Zhan Xun's words.

"Who is your Excellency?"

Zhan Xun didn't respond to him bluntly, and said, "I just saw a short arrow shot into your carriage."

"I wanted to help, but it was too late. Fortunately, the girl in your car is very skillful and avoided danger by herself."

"I was relieved, and when I was about to do my own thing, I inadvertently caught a glimpse of the girl's side face, which looked familiar."

"She is very similar to a friend I know, so I wanted to come and have a look."

What he said really seemed like a friend he knew and came here to care, but the coachman didn't believe what Zhan Xun said.

Turning around, he asked Luo Xiaojiu in the car in a low voice, "Girl, there is a young man outside who said he might know you, would you like to meet?"

Being with Dean Chen all the year round, the coachman is very responsive to this kind of thing.

Luo Xiaojiu didn't want to see her, so she deliberately lowered her voice, "I don't see you."

Intuition told her that the short arrow just now had something to do with Zhan Xun, otherwise, he wouldn't have appeared in front of them by such a coincidence.

But she has no evidence to expose Zhan Xun's false face, so there is no need to waste time with Zhan Xun.

After receiving Luo Xiaojiu's words, the coachman turned around and said to Zhan Xun, "My girl said she didn't know you, so I'm afraid he has mistaken someone."

"Please excuse me, my master and wife are still waiting for the young lady to go back."

This is deliberate rhetoric.

How can Zhan Xun not understand.

However, he won't let it go.

The indifferent thin lips slightly lifted, and said politely, "It seems that I was abrupt, please."

The groom didn't seem to have heard his words, and without replying, he raised his whip and drove away quickly.

As soon as they walked away, Zhan Xun's smile behind him immediately disappeared, and his long and narrow phoenix eyes were full of viciousness.

He said to a man dressed as a domestic servant who was walking beside him, "Follow up secretly and have a look."

The servant responded and hurried to follow.

Luo Xiaojiu returned to Qingfeng Academy in a quarter of an hour.

While in the town, although she was not stabbed by the arrow, she was also cut through her sleeve.

Yun Yaoyao finally drove away her mother and eldest brother after all she said, and now she is waiting for her at the gate of the academy.

Seeing her come back, she rushed over immediately.

Coincidentally, when she pounced on Luo Xiaojiu, her little paws just got into the opening of her torn clothes, and she looked over subconsciously.

"Little Jiu, why are your clothes torn?"

Luo Xiaojiu only noticed it at this time, she was silent for a moment, and responded to her, "It was accidentally scratched when I went out."

Fearing that Yun Yaoyao would be worried if she found out, she immediately changed the subject, "Even if the clothes were scratched, there was no injury, it's fine."

Then, he took Yun Yaoyao to the carriage to get the food box, "Come and see, I have brought you something delicious."

When Yun Yaoyao heard the delicious food, her eyes widened immediately.

Originally, she thought about going out to eat with Luo Xiaojiu, but now that she saw so many delicious food, she forgot about it.

Pulling Luo Xiaojiu to his dormitory.

"Little Jiu, let me take you to my dormitory. You can live in my dormitory these days."

In this way, the small wine is saved and I have to go out to stay in the hotel.

"Besides, you live in the academy, you can also have dinner with me, and there are a lot of interesting things in the academy"

She talked on and on.

I really wish I could take Luo Xiaojiu around every corner of the academy today.

Luo Xiaojiu didn't think about living in the academy, she originally thought that she would go to an inn outside for a night in the evening.

When Yun Yaoyao said that, she didn't agree.

After all, this is Qingfeng Academy, and there must be their own rules in the academy.
