Song Jinyin's departure also had a hint of gambling.
She had never seen Biyu's Kung Fu, but she knew that if Biyu wanted to catch her, it would only be a matter of time.
But she had to escape.
But others would probably think that she would go south, to Anyuan County where she grew up. Only in this direction could she hire a carriage and reach the next town in just half a day.
But how could Song Jinyin take this road, even in the opposite direction to Anyuan County, she had never considered.
She just hired two carriages, took a decent path, and headed towards the village that was not obvious but not blocked.
She knew that only such an ordinary place would be the last place they thought of going.
But more than that, she looked forward to Pei Yanzhou letting go after getting angry.
He didn't do anything wrong during the days without her waiting around. It would be better to take advantage of the opportunity to clear things up while she was gone.
Song Jinyin was sitting in the rickety carriage. Due to the bumpy path, the food she had eaten earlier was rumbling in her stomach. She endured the discomfort and took out a black pill from her waist.
The refreshing medicinal fragrance instantly soothed her discomfort.
Shen Yuhe's medicine was more effective than she imagined, whether it was protecting her body or stunning others.
"Young Master, it's getting dark soon. We have to hurry up and get to the village ahead, otherwise we won't have a place to stay at night."
Maybe he heard Song Jinyin's movements in the carriage, and the coachman reminded him.
"Uncle, don't worry about me. I'm just on my way. I was delayed for a while because of my fun. My brother at home is still waiting for me in the county. If I can't find a village to stay tonight, I'm afraid I won't be able to reach the county before the sun sets tomorrow. If you make them report to the official, you'll be in trouble."
Song Jinyin kept it in mind. She didn't expect others to recognize her as a man, but she still needed to say something to prevent others from attacking her easily.
"When the young master goes home alone, it will inevitably make the family worried. When he comes out in the future, he will have to bring a servant to accompany him. Now this area is not as peaceful as the young master thinks, especially when the new year is approaching. If he hadn't seen the young master alone, It’s not as troublesome as others to give money. I didn’t want to accept this trip..."
Before he finished speaking, a man in ragged clothes ran out from the side of the trail and threw himself in front of him, causing the carriage to stop suddenly.
Song Jinyin swayed forward, barely able to sit still, and listened to the coachman scolding and pulling the reins to go around the sudden beggar, but unexpectedly, the beggar suddenly rushed in front of the horse and refused to move forward.
"I beg you, please do me a favor and send some money to those who stutter! My grandma and I have not found food for three days. My grandma is still sick and can't even open her eyes! I beg you, please do me a favor and give me whatever you want." A few cents will do!"
"Go, go, beg for money to find those noble people's carriages! How can we, the little carriage dealers, pay you for the business!"
But even though the driver yelled, the person in front showed no sign of leaving. Song Jinyin opened the car curtain a crack and took a sneak peek at the scene outside. The hand covering her waist took out a small jade pendant. bottle.
"You are kind! I just want money for a meal, please do me a favor. My grandma is over fifty years old and cannot stand the trouble. I have not been able to find food for many days. Please show mercy and save me." Save my grandfather and grandson!"
The man's clothes were shabby and dirty, and he was almost shirtless. Song Jinyin only glanced at him and then looked away.
The cries and begging outside never stopped, and even the coachman was fussed by the newcomers. He turned to ask her in a low voice, but Song Jinyin's heart sank, and she pressed the dagger prepared under the baggage with her other hand.
In such a cold day, the man is not only not afraid of the cold, but also full of energy and clear purpose. Apart from the tattered clothes on his body, there is no trace of desolation or lack of food. It is obvious that he has been here for a long time.
Song Jinyin tightened her hand on the jade bottle.
The jade bottle contained self-defense powder bought at Bi Chuntang. She didn't know if she could be saved by scattering it, let alone whether the coachman and the man were on the same road.
At this time, in the forest in the distance, several big men were holding knives and looking at the trail. One of them had a look of eagerness on his face, while the others only looked at him.
"I saw the person inside first. She was very thin. She must be a girl. It's better to just rob the person and the baggage and waste time!"
"No, Lao Hei didn't say hello all the way. Either this person doesn't have much money on her, or she's not easy to do anything with. Let's take a look first. If she is generous and easy to deceive, and really pays for Lao San's money, let's go up and deduct it. It’s not too late for anyone.”
"What the elder brother is saying is that the government is keeping a close eye on you now, and it's not worth getting into trouble for such a small amount of money."
Song Jinyin's palms were sweating.
She looked at the coachman who opened the curtain to look at her, and suddenly remembered that if this man really wanted to leave in a carriage, there was only one man standing in front of him, so there was no way he could really stop him.
"Young master, why don't you let him go as he pleases? This person is obviously difficult to deal with, so we can't keep delaying him like this."
"Uncle, I also want to spend money to buy some peace."
Song Jinyin suppressed the fear in her heart and smiled, "If I hadn't used all the money for fun, I wouldn't have hired such a small carriage. It's not that uncle's carriage is not good, but I am... .I can’t even hand over the money I promised to leave when I see my brother at home tomorrow.”
The coachman also frowned, whether he was exploring the truth or falsehood of Song Jinyin's words, or thinking of a way to leave.
But the person in front obviously lost his patience.
He got up from the ground and strode towards Song Jinyin.
Recently, their brothers have been targeted and have restrained themselves a lot, but the more this happened, the deeper the resentment in his heart became.
Now there is such a little girl sitting inside. No matter how powerful she is, if she loses her body, there is nothing they can do to her. The most she can do is make trouble for a few days. Not many of them will actually report to the official, and in the end they will just stay on the mountain and serve her.
The man didn't have the scruples of the others, especially after seeing Song Jinyin's face clearly.
The face was obviously covered up deliberately, and there was some dirt and dust on it, but the eyes were filled with water, which made people feel itchy just looking at it.
"Since I don't have the money to give to my brother, the girl shouldn't think about it anymore. Why don't you follow me back? I'll be the girl's brother. I don't need any money, and I can also bring the girl to be happy."
Song Jinyin stepped back and took a deep breath.
At this moment she understood that she couldn't run away unless the two people in front of her died first.
Knowing that she had no choice, all her fears were dispelled at this moment, leaving only the determination to make a desperate move.
Song Jinyin gently opened the small lid of the jade bottle with her fingertips, and looked at the person in front of her, her eyes turning completely cold.
The unpleasant smell of the man permeated the car. Seeing her step back, she smiled even more evilly.
"Her brother has not seen anyone but he wants to report to the police. This place has already been targeted. I advise you not to..."
"What are you afraid of? I have already stood in front of her. Apart from making her my own, is there any sure way to do it? Don't worry, this time you got a little girl who makes me happy. I will accept your offer later. I'll take care of the money!"
The tall figure enveloped the small carriage. The moment the person got into the carriage, Song Jinyin held her breath and shook the powder out of the jade bottle.
The man suddenly felt that something was wrong, and his eyes widened as he was about to get angry, when he heard the sound of a carriage approaching from outside. It was quite noisy and moving a bit fast.
Song Jinyin didn't know when the medicine would take effect, so she took the opportunity to lift one side of the car curtain and look outside. However, before she could call for help, an angry man covered her mouth and nose and dragged her back.
Her hands subconsciously protected her lower abdomen.
The curtains of the carriage were lowered again, and Song Jinyin could only see at that moment that the carriage approaching in front was spacious and luxurious, and even the driver was dressed in luxurious robes.
The man covering Song Jinyin was already a little dazed. He didn't dare to attack Song Jinyin at this time, so he had to grit his teeth and hold on, waiting for someone to pass by.
But who would have thought that the carriage happened to be parked next to it.
"My young master said that since you guys are robbing us, why don't you come and try our Shen family's carriage."
The girl's determination to die was broken by this voice, and the determination in her eyes was replaced by water.
Her heart finally settled down, and she didn't hold on any longer. She just let her tears fall, quietly venting the fear in her heart.
...
At the same time, Pei Yanzhou took the topographic map sent by his subordinates, looked at the mark, and felt a sudden contraction in his chest, accompanied by a sharp pain.
A secret letter was delivered to the case. It must have come suddenly and the handwriting was messy.
The man's eyebrows were hidden between light and shadow, and his eyes were dim and unclear.
