Chapter 18 Here Comes the Assassin
Seeing that the other party's eyes became darker, as if there was still a faint danger in it, Gu Rou couldn't help feeling nervous again.

Alas, such a beautiful boy, why is his temper so volatile!

Sure enough, no one is perfect!

"It's late at night, I'm sleepy, pretty boy, can you let me go back to sleep?" Gu Rou said with a speechless expression.

Nima, she can't hook up with a beautiful man, she doesn't want to stand here and suffer while being suppressed by the other party's aura.

But at this moment, there was a commotion outside.

"Who!" A guard's voice shouted from outside.

Su Zhan focused slightly, feeling the breath outside, and Gu Rou took advantage of this moment to quickly break free from the restraints and slip out.

Su Zhan didn't chase after him, but walked out of the tent slowly.

There seemed to be some confusion outside, Gu Rou found the maid who was serving her, and asked what was going on, but she just seemed to find someone nearby, but ran away again.

Gu Rou was taken aback, and couldn't help but think of the letter from last night.
And the guards in the marriage team searched around for a long time, but still didn't see a single shadow, Su Zhan said in a deep voice: "There's no need to search, the person is no longer here."

Gu Rou had no expression on her face, but there was something dark in her heart, did someone really come, then was it the person who wrote to her last night, or something else?Or is it just a coincidence?
After not standing outside for too long, Gu Rou quickly pulled the maid into her tent after making sure that the person she wanted to search had already left.

After returning to her own space, Gu Rou's heart was finally relieved, but she still didn't dare to sleep too much at night.

Fortunately, nothing happened later, and Su Zhan didn't make things difficult for her. Early the next morning, after washing and eating by the stream, the team set off again.

The same was true on the second day, and the journey was exceptionally peaceful. By the evening of the third day, the team finally stopped in a small town.

First let people go to the town to set up an inn, and then leave some guards to guard outside the town, while Gu Rou, the protagonist, goes to the town inn with Su Zhan.

When they came to the inn, it was almost dark. Gu Rou got out of the carriage, and followed the people to the arranged building. She was in the best sky-shaped room in the inn, and the person next door to her was Su Cham.

After sending away all the original staff in the inn, the entire inn was filled with people from the marriage team. After Gu Rou returned to the room, she walked around for a while. Sitting in a carriage for the past few days really hurt her waist. This journey will take at least dozens of days, and Gu Rou also admires the ancients!
Not long after, someone brought the prepared dinner to Gu Rou's room, and after the meal was served by the maid, Gu Rou didn't go out, and then asked someone to fetch water for a bath.

After flipping through and relaxing, Gu Rou checked the poison, antidote and hidden weapons and other things prepared with the money, and put them away before going to bed with peace of mind.

After sitting in the carriage for a few days, and adding that he didn't sleep well, now that he finally had a bed, Gu Rou felt extremely comfortable, and soon after laying down, he fell into a deep sleep.

In a daze, there seemed to be noisy voices in her ears, Gu Rou's sleepiness gradually faded, and she felt very uneasy.

After an unknown amount of time, amidst the louder and louder movements, Gu Rou woke up completely and opened her eyes.

The sound of fighting penetrated into her ears clearly in an instant, this time, it was not a dream.

what's the situation?
She frowned, the inn was obviously very quiet when she was sleeping, why is it as noisy as the vegetable market when she wakes up?
Gu Rou didn't know how long she had slept, but judging by the weather outside, it should be the middle of the night. Soon, she judged the situation outside from the various fighting and screams: the assassin is coming!

In an instant, Gu Rou shivered and woke up, her heart couldn't stop being excited: the assassin is here, so is there a chance for her to take advantage of the chaos and escape!
Nima, the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity has come so soon!
The maid was originally guarding the outside, but when she heard the chaos outside, she couldn't help being a little scared, and ran to the inside to check on Gu Rou's situation.

"What's going on outside?" Gu Rou asked.

"Princess, it seems that an assassin is coming?"

really!

"Is the fight very intense?" Gu Rou asked again.

The maid nodded, "It seems so."

Gu Rou thought of something and asked, "Where is King Moling? Is there anyone protecting us outside the door?"

The maid shook her head and said, "It's chaotic outside, I don't see anyone guarding it, and King Moling doesn't know where he is."

"I see." Gu Rou waved her hand and ordered, "Go outside and have a look, just stay at the door and let me know if there's anything wrong."

After sending this maid out, Gu Rou has already learned two important pieces of information. One is that no one can come out to guard her because of the chaotic battle situation, and the other is that Su Zhan, that annoying tyrannical maniac, is not there!
This is simply an excellent opportunity to escape!
