"I am his secret guard. I will kill anyone who wants to kill him." The original person often said this, but this was the first time for me to say it. After all, it's not my job, so it's somewhat unnatural to talk about professional 'slang'.
But the visitors didn't seem to care about these details. They raised their swords and started to chop, but they were stopped by my 'Heavy Rain Pear Blossom Needle'.
Their martial arts skills are not weak, as evidenced by the corpses of bandits outside.
I couldn't kill them with one shot, so I threw a lot of needles.
They blocked some of the steel needles with their knives, avoiding their vital points and each received one or two needles.
Unfortunately, they will still die because the needles are poisonous!
This poison is quick-acting, colorless and odorless, and its source cannot be traced. Those who are infected immediately fall to the ground and die.
I raised my palm, sucked the scattered steel needle back into my palm, and hid it again.
At this time, Bai Mudan let out a cry and opened her eyes. Before she could get up, she put her hand on the back of her head and cried out in pain.
"Miss - Miss Peony -" A shout suddenly came from the distance. According to the voice, the person was still two miles away from the woodshed.
"Azhao! I'm here, come and save this lady..." Bai Mudan sat up, covering the back of her head. She might have been shouting that her head hurt. Her voice calling for help now was not as loud as when she was reading.
Fortunately, her men came to find them. When they entered the woodshed, they first saw four corpses on the ground. She flicked the purple handkerchief and flew towards Bai Mudan.
"My slave is late, my lady~" A purple figure knelt in front of Bai Mudan in an enchanting manner.
The voice sounded like that of a man, but the body and manner looked like a girl's, and her words and deeds were exaggerated.
When the handkerchief covering his face to wipe away his tears was taken away, I could clearly see his appearance. How should I put it, he looked quite abstract.
With a wide forehead, dead fish eyes, a flat nose, and a sausage mouth, it is said that with such a crooked appearance, it is impossible to serve as a servant in the palace, let alone serve the princess.
After taking a closer look, I realized that this man was easily refractory and must be wearing a human skin mask.
The purple clothes he wore were darker in color, and the amethyst stone decoration on his hairband was also darker in color.
I could tell from his footsteps that he was an expert, stronger than the four people lying on the ground.
When their master and servant met, one cried and wiped away tears, and the other began to complain.
Bai Mudan was now meeting her relatives, and she described the fall she had just received as if she had died of a serious injury.
It was obviously just a big bump on the back of his head, but Azhao regarded it as a 'tumor' and cried while holding Bai Mudan.
It was just dawning now, and I planned to finish breakfast at the cottage before leaving. There were still more than three hours before breakfast, so I might as well take a nap first.
The master and servant finished crying. Bai Mudan seemed to suddenly remember that there were two living people in the woodshed. She turned around and pointed at Yun Zhou and me, wanting to hire us as her servants.
"We met by chance, why don't we say goodbye." I refused simply, not wanting to have anything to do with her, and besides being a servant to the princess, even if I was willing to be a palace maid, would Yunzhou be willing to be a eunuch?
Everything A-Zhao says and does is full of femininity. I have used my powers to 'detect' that he is a father-in-law.
No matter where the missing person is, my superpower can sense it.
Including Yunzhou's stupidity, he was not born stupid, someone poisoned him.
This poison is not life-threatening, but it is like maggots attached to bones, or like a handful of white sesame seeds thrown into the beach. Even if I use my superpower, it will take a year to completely remove it.
The person who poisoned him wanted him to be stupid for the rest of his life, but since he was poisoned to be stupid, why bother sending people to hunt him down?
In his current state, he couldn't put together a jigsaw puzzle in three days, and he couldn't participate in any conspiracy.
Without good-hearted people to feed him, he would have starved to death. This man was stupid and very well-educated. He didn't even snatch food from others when he was hungry.
It is said that fools are blessed by fools. This seems to be true now. Although there were assassins trying to kill him one after another, he met a master like me. He was also a hidden master who was ready to retire and was willing to kill him. As the beginning of my change of heart, this is his blessing!
"Farewell~ When traveling in the world, the most important thing is loyalty. As the saying goes, you rely on your parents at home and your friends when you go out. If you exchange meals with me, I promise to reward you. I have made my promise and it is difficult to follow up. I must repay you. Don't worry, I won't ask you to sign a contract of sale. Our relationship is an employment relationship, which is purely monetary."
"Be your servant? Is this a reward?" I have seen many high-altitude people, so I know that this is a common problem for people like them, or it is the unified 'concept' of people at that height, which makes ordinary people become Their minions are a blessing.
"That's right. Anyway, you two have nowhere to go and are wandering outside, why not work for me." Bai Mudan didn't hear the displeasure in my tone at all.
"Miss, we still have important things to do, so it's not convenient to bring others with us. I think this girl also has her own things to be busy with. The world is far away, so we will meet again if we are destined, right?" Azhao persuaded him at the right time, and finally Look at me.
"Yes, we still have things to do, you can do it yourself." I accepted all the memories of the original person, and I have a repulsive mentality towards being a 'servant' or 'slave' for others.
The original person was trained since she was a child and was brainwashed thoroughly. Her former boss used her as a hidden weapon and never regarded her as a human being.
But in another world, I have been living for myself, and I can't bear to see my original self-destructive way of living.
Bai Mudan may have never met a "poor" like me who doesn't know good and evil. She pursed her lips and sulked. Azhao coaxed her in a low voice and wanted to take her down the mountain to have breakfast. Then she forgot about us.
They went down the mountain and left the village. I stepped over the corpses on the ground, found the kitchen of the village, and started to light a fire to cook.
Yun Zhou followed me closely, never leaving. He was very scared when he saw the corpses inside and outside the woodshed.
Ordinarily, given his experience, he would not be afraid when seeing a dead body.
The bandit's kitchen has a full range of dishes. This place is hidden. If he hadn't been caught, it would be extremely difficult to find the location of the village gate.
I probably don’t have any relatives or friends coming to visit, so I cook with peace of mind. I make porridge with side dishes for breakfast, have a big meal at noon, stew fish, stir-fry chicken, and steam meat. In the afternoon, I make two pots of steamed buns and one pot of steamed buns, and pickle them. Serve two jars of pickles, set off in the evening, and ride out of the den of thieves.
I haven't disposed of the bandit's body, so I'm afraid it will stink tomorrow. If we stay one night and set off tomorrow morning, we won't be exposed to the smell.
It was summer at this time, the weather was hot, and the corpses easily attracted flies.
I took away one horse, released the rest, and continued walking north with dry food and Yunzhou.
When I got to the next city, I sold the horse and exchanged it for cash. Although riding a horse was convenient, it also required taking care of it. Taking care of a fool was already tiring enough. I was worried that I wouldn't be able to take care of the living things next to me, so I exchanged the horse for travel expenses. He and Yunzhou found an inn to stay in the city.
