Transmigrated into a farmer's lucky charm, all the villains in the family panicked.
Chapter 415 Going into the Water
So the next day, Yun Shengsheng told Yun Qiaoqiao and the others that she wanted to leave.
But now the capital city is completely under martial law. Let alone leaving the city, you'll be questioned for half a day if you even walk two streets.
Just as Yun Shengsheng and the others were figuring out how to get out, Gu Qiu, the manager of Baoqinglou, came looking for them.
Gu Qiu has been the manager here for decades, so he naturally has some methods that others don't know.
Yun Shengsheng couldn't help but laugh when she saw the bundle of rope and several waterproof lanterns that Gu Qiu had brought.
She already knew about Gu Qiu's method from Xiao Mao Tuanzi.
The Chu family dug a secret passage in Tiandu City.
The secret passage couldn't take them directly out of the city, but it led to an abandoned house near the city walls.
Beneath that house, there was an even more secret passage that led directly to the moat outside the imperial city.
In other words, they have to dive out.
The moat is very wide; you have to swim across it to get out of the city.
Yun Shengsheng said she was a good swimmer and could easily swim a lap back and forth.
Despite everyone's worried looks, she still went into the water herself to explore the route.
She discovered that although the moat was murky and contained aquatic plants and fish, there were several places in the middle where one could stick their head out to breathe.
Wu Xia and Yun Qiaoqiao are not in much trouble, after all, they are both martial arts practitioners, and holding their breath and diving underwater is not difficult for them.
The most troublesome one is Wenren Jue.
He was a scholar who was too weak to even kill a chicken; he couldn't swim, much less hold his breath.
Given the width of the moat, he'd probably be dead within moments of going down there.
She gathered the group together and said earnestly, "How about this, I'll take Brother Wenren with me in a bit."
"Fourth Sister and Wu Xia together."
"You guys go ahead, I'll keep watch from behind."
"If any of you run into trouble, I can lend a hand."
Three adults watched as a six-year-old child made a calm and sophisticated arrangement. They couldn't help but sigh inwardly, feeling utterly useless.
But no one could voice any objections.
Because among them, Yun Shengsheng is indeed the strongest.
It's not that Yun Shengsheng is the strongest in any one aspect, but rather that her overall strength is the strongest.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Yun Shengsheng handed Wenren Jue a pill: "Brother Wenren, take this."
"When you wake up, you'll already be outside."
Wenren Jue took the medicine, examined it, and his face paled slightly: "Sheng Sheng, this is a sleeping potion, isn't it?"
Are you sure that eating it won't hasten his death?
Seeing his conflicted face, Yun Shengsheng kindly explained, "People who can't swim will panic in the water and will unconsciously kick and grab wildly."
"When the time comes, I'll take you with me, and we'll both sink."
"If you eat it, you won't know anything anymore. It's safest for me to drag you along."
Wenren Jue's face paled, but he still took the medicine.
The drug took effect very quickly; his eyelids drooped, and he collapsed limply.
Although Yun Shengsheng was young, she was skilled in martial arts and naturally very strong, and she held Wenren Jue down with one hand.
With her other hand, she took out two luminous pearls and handed them to Wu Xia and Yun Qiaoqiao respectively: "The visibility is not high underwater. With these luminous pearls, you can at least tell where you are."
"The main advantage is that we can see the other person's location, which makes rescue easier if something happens!"
Yun Qiaoqiao and Wu Xia nodded and accepted the luminous pearl.
Yun Shengsheng said goodbye to Gu Qiu one last time, and then said, "Let's go, let's get in the water."
Yun Qiaoqiao glanced at Yun Shengsheng and Wenren Jue with some concern, but ultimately said nothing. She then went into the water with Wu Xia.
Once the two entered the water, they discovered that the underwater environment was even more murky than they had imagined, making it almost impossible to see anything in front of them.
If they hadn't been holding the luminous pearl in their hands, they wouldn't have been able to see anything even half a foot away from them.
After swimming a short distance, they looked back and saw a small dot not far behind them, which must be Yun Shengsheng.
The two exchanged a glance and swam forward with all their might.
Yun Shengsheng also took Wenren Jue into the water.
However, as soon as she got into the water, she immediately stuffed Wenren Jue into her spatial storage.
She figured that unless Yun Qiaoqiao and the others were right in front of her, they wouldn't be able to discover Wenren Jue's disappearance. This was also the safest way she could think of to get Wenren Jue out.
Then, like a nimble little fish, she swam lightly forward, following Yun Qiaoqiao and Wu Xia at a distance that was neither too close nor too far.
She remained vigilant, ready to throw either of the two in front of her into her spatial dimension the moment they couldn't hold on any longer.
The journey was generally smooth.
But just as we were about to reach the exit, something happened.
Yun Qiaoqiao's foot was suddenly entangled by something.
She struggled a few times, but the thing only tightened its grip. She tried to untangle it, but she couldn't.
People are already prone to panic underwater, and when they panic, they become even less able to break free.
Wu Xia noticed something was wrong and quickly swam back. She then discovered it was a fishing net, which was very sturdy.
She pulled hard, and suddenly felt a sharp pain in her hand, as if she had been stung by something.
Her fingers started to go numb, and her movements slowed down.
She tried to grab her sword to cut the fishing net, but she couldn't pull it out.
Yun Shengsheng quickly noticed the anomaly ahead.
She swam over as fast as she could and found that Yun Qiaoqiao and Wu Xia were almost at their limit.
Without hesitation, Yun Shengsheng put both of them into her spatial storage with a thought and followed them in.
After Yun Shengsheng entered the space, she quickly performed CPR on the two of them.
After they were both out of danger, she put a pill in each of their mouths and put them back to sleep so they could recover.
Yun Shengsheng then took a dagger and carefully removed the fishing net from Yun Qiaoqiao's feet.
After everything was done, Yun Shengsheng's wet clothes were completely dry, but they were still very uncomfortable to wear, all wrinkled and crumpled.
Yun Shengsheng simply took off her clothes and took a nice, relaxing hot bath.
After feeling better, fearing she might catch a cold, she ate a small hot pot. Little Dumpling ate with her.
Once they had eaten their fill, they left the space and continued swimming forward.
After swimming for about fifteen minutes, Yun Shengsheng finally swam out of the moat and landed in a relatively secluded spot.
Yun Shengsheng figured the other three people were still asleep, so she wasn't afraid of being discovered.
So they turned the little tuft of dough into a big bird, which carried her in the sky.
After flying for about half a day, completely away from Tiandu City...
