As the two pebbles were launched, there was a thud, and Chen Han fell to the ground without warning, his mouth full of dust!

There was a moment of silence on the street, followed by a burst of gloating laughter.

"Pfft~, hahaha..."

"Is this karma coming back to bite them?"

"Exactly, even God can't stand it!"

Chen Han spat, "Aren't you going to help me up? You bunch of useless bastards."

Mo Lan glanced at Chen Han's disheveled appearance, her eyes cold and clear. She hadn't felt anything special about him when she last met him, but today she noticed that he was surrounded by a thick black aura, interspersed with specks of scarlet.

Needless to say, he took many lives during this period.

Seeing that the entrance to the security escort agency had returned to quiet, Mo Lan hesitated for a moment, then turned and went to the noodle shop next door.

"Oh, young lady, please have a seat. What would you like to eat?"

"Manager, do you see the escort agency across the street?" Mo Lan pointed across the street. "I'd like to invite that family to dinner. Would you be willing to deliver the goods to their door?"

"This?" The innkeeper looked Mo Lan up and down, noticing her wandering swordsman attire, which suggested she wasn't a local. "Miss, do you know anything about the current situation of the escort agency?"

"I know, they were framed. Since the magistrate himself has spoken up to release them, they must be innocent. The Chen family is just unwilling to let it go and wants to find a scapegoat."

Mo Lan leaned against the counter, watching the shopkeeper's thoughtful expression, and couldn't help but tease him.

"Is the shopkeeper afraid of causing trouble?"

"Please excuse my rudeness, young lady. I am indeed a little worried. We are just a small business owner, and if the Chen family takes their anger out on us, we won't be able to handle it!"

The shopkeeper looked at Mo Lan with an embarrassed expression, especially her all-seeing eyes, and felt his face burning.

“I understand, but don’t worry, from today onwards, the Chen family will no longer appear here. You just need to deliver meals three times a day.”

As she spoke, Mo Lan took out a certain amount of silver and placed it on the counter. "This is a deposit, to be paid on the day it is delivered to the escort agency to clear my name."

"Alright, alright, I'll take the job. Don't worry, young lady, our noodle shop will keep its promise."

The shopkeeper's eyes lit up as he looked at the silver on the counter. "Buying and selling, you buy, I sell, it's a fair transaction. So what if the Chen family finds out? Will they stop people from eating?"

After arranging meals for the Zhou family, Mo Lan, seeing that it was still early, strolled around the streets by herself.

On the busiest street, yamen runners patrolled from time to time. Although they did not disturb the people, Mo Lan noticed that as soon as they were there, the passersby would immediately disperse.

Passing by that familiar blacksmith shop, Mo Lan immediately spotted the shirtless man wielding a hammer.

"Brother Tie, we meet again." Mo Lan, behind the mask, smiled as she looked at the stunned Tie Niu.

"It's you? How dare you show your face again?" Although Tie Niu didn't recognize the girl in front of him, he was very familiar with that mask. It was precisely because of this familiarity that he was shocked.

"In broad daylight, under the clear sky, I haven't done anything immoral or heinous, so why shouldn't I show up?"

After several interactions, it became clear that although Tie Niu appeared simple and honest, he was bold, meticulous, and very loyal.

Tie Niu looked at Mo Lan, put the hammer aside, wiped his face with a towel, and said, "Miss, please come with me."

After passing through the shops in front, there is a small courtyard in the back. Although it is not big, it seems to have all the necessary facilities.
