“Plop”…

The woman knelt down on the ground without any warning, tears in her eyes. She looked pitiful and kowtowed to Su Yin repeatedly.

Her voice was choked with sobs. "Please, young lady, have mercy on me and take me with you. All my family members are gone, and I am left alone. If I go on the road alone, I am afraid I can't even get ten miles away. I will... I beg you to have mercy on me and give me a chance to survive."

"As long as I can survive, I am willing to sell myself as a slave and serve you for the rest of my life."

Su Yin looked at the women in front of her with her clear eyes. She obviously had more choices, but she chose them. She must have been attracted by the fact that they owned a carriage and had a relatively affluent family background.

More importantly, there are only three women in their family and no men.

Generally speaking, women tend to be softer-hearted, and this is one of the reasons.

Secondly, being a woman is much easier to deal with.

Last but not least, as women, we will feel more at ease with each other.

Therefore, it is not surprising that she would make such a choice.

Even if he hadn't gone to test them at night, she would have definitely stuck to them.

Inside the carriage, Su's mother and Su Baozhu lifted the curtain and looked at the woman in front of them in surprise.

When the woman saw Su's mother and Su Baozhu, she kowtowed several times.

"Please, ma'am, please give me a chance to live."

Oops, the name has been changed again.

Su's mother and Su Baozhu looked at each other, not daring to speak. Su Yin didn't speak either, and they wouldn't speak easily.

This woman is not simple, Su Yin had already told them.

Su Yin frowned and declined awkwardly, "If you go south, you will reach Linzhou Prefecture. There are always ways to make a living there. Why sell yourself into slavery? It's not worth it."

"Don't be ridiculous, young lady. It's not that easy to take root in the city. Please give me a way to survive."

Perhaps she was too pitiful, and some people around her couldn't stand it. Seeing that Su Yin and her group didn't respond, they directly said sarcastically, "People are begging you so much, why are you so hard-hearted?"

Su Yin looked towards the person who came out of the exit in the direction of the voice. He was a thin man with dark skin and ordinary features. He was the type that you would not even be able to find in a crowd.

Su Yin would try to mediate with this mysterious woman, but she would show no mercy to this man.

She directly retorted, "Since you are so reluctant, then take her with you."

The woman was stunned, and the man was also stunned.

Seeing the woman was about to open her mouth, Su Yin spoke first, "Madam, since someone is willing to take you in and give you a chance to live, I think you should be willing and will not refuse, right?"

After the man came to his senses, he became moved and his eyes fell on the woman with anticipation in his eyes.

The tears in the woman's eyes were not sure whether to fall or not, and she didn't know how to respond for a moment.

Su Baozhu snorted coldly and added another blow, "Why does this lady look like you are unwilling? Are you looking down on that gentleman?"

Su Yin gave Su Baozhu a big thumbs up.

God’s finishing blow!

It directly exposed the woman's thoughts.

The man also realized that the woman was unwilling to follow him. His face suddenly darkened. He snorted at her and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Butcher Yang yelled at the top of his voice, "You, woman, are clearly not seeking a way to survive, you are clearly seeking to enjoy a peaceful life."

The people in the rear who were preparing to set off, all urged them on.

"Ouch, move out of the way quickly. Don't block our way."

"Woman, since you want to survive and others are willing to take you in, why don't you go?"

"Hurry and go."

The woman had no choice but to grit her teeth, get up from the ground, move aside and make way.

Su Yin waved the whip in her hand, and the horse ran quickly and drove away directly in front of her.

The horse-drawn carriages followed closely behind, and soon left behind the teams driving ox carts, mule carts, and even hand-pulled carts.

After getting some distance from the group of people, Su Baozhu was finally able to ask.

"Yinyin, what happened last night?"

Su's mother was also very curious.

"Someone used drugs to quietly knock out everyone in the land temple, and then dug out their hearts one by one."

She just made a simple statement, and both Su's mother and sister-in-law were shocked.

"How can it be so cruel?" Su's mother murmured.

Su Baozhu's thoughts jumped even more, "Yinyin, do you suspect that woman was the one who did the killing?"

Su Yin nodded and shook her head, "I'm not sure if she is, but one thing is certain, this woman is not as harmless as she looks. I'm afraid she can't escape the responsibility for the deaths of those people."

The situation in the temple, plus her attempts last night, all indicated this.

"Why did she kill those people?" Su Baozhu asked curiously.

"How would I know that? Why don't you go back and ask him?"

Su Baozhu shook her head frantically, "I'm not going."

The matter of the land temple is not that simple!

As for what is hidden, Su Yin doesn't care, as long as they are not involved.

"You all sit still, I'm going to speed up."

I must keep a distance from the other survivors in the land temple. I always feel that if I get too close to them, something bad will happen.

Su Yin sped up, and the people behind him naturally followed.

The carriage was moving quickly on the official road, leaving the other survivors of the land temple far behind.

In the dense forest, the sun shines through the layers of branches and leaves, casting patches of mottled light and shadows, illuminating two figures. One is tall and straight, standing like a pine tree; the other is petite and thin, kneeling on the ground.

"My lord, I am incompetent and have failed to do what you asked me to do. Please punish me." The kneeling woman said in a trembling voice.

"Hmph! What a useless waste!" The standing man yelled angrily and kicked the woman hard.

The woman groaned and rolled backwards uncontrollably.

There was pain on her face, but she dared not utter any moan or beg for mercy, nor even a hint of resistance. She could only silently endure the other party's anger and violence.

After the other party's emotions calmed down a little, the woman who was kicked to the ground endured the pain and quickly got up, then returned to her original position and knelt down again, still with her head lowered, not daring to look the other party in the eye.

"I have failed in my job, my lord. I beg you to give me another chance. I have heard that their destination this time is Shangjing City. As long as we can stop them before they arrive in Shangjing City, the mission will be mostly accomplished. I think it is safer to leave the things with them than with us." The woman explained humbly.

However, the man did not seem satisfied with this answer. He looked at the woman in front of him coldly, with a cold light flashing in his eyes: "If that thing is lost, even if you are cut into pieces, it will not make up for it."

"I will never let it get lost."

"What are you waiting for here? If you lose them... you should know the consequences!" The man waved his hand.

"Yes, sir."

The woman got up and left in embarrassment.
