Zhu Chong quickly covered the package again, looked into the carriage guiltily, but found that the door was closed, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Turning his gaze back to the package, Zhu Chong carefully checked the contents and discovered that in addition to the letters and bellyband, there were also several large-denomination silver bills, which made him even more suspicious.

With suspicion, Zhu Chong opened the letter, but saw only a few words on it, which looked like a poem.

"Blessings are sent with long words, and we can express our heartfelt feelings even though we are thousands of miles apart. We hold hands with deep affection, and the changes in people's lives are stained by snow and frost. We work hard all day long, and bravely bear the consequences of success and failure. We cherish the romance of spring, and we pay attention to poems to remember the beauty of flowers."

What does it mean? Zhu Chong said he didn't understand.

In his previous life, Chinese was his weak subject. If it hadn't held him back in the college entrance examination, he wouldn't have become a tech geek.

Just as I was watching intently, I suddenly heard a burst of ridicule behind me.

"Oh, Miss Xu's acrostic poem is really well written. I wish lovers will finally get married. I just don't know who this lover is talking about!"

It’s the voice of Guanyinnu!

Zhu Chong was startled. When he looked back, he found that the carriage door had opened at some point, and Guanyinnu was looking at him with a half-smile on her face.

[Ding, host, please make a choice within three seconds. If the time limit is exceeded, the system will automatically make a choice for the host.]

[Option 1: A true man, able to bend and stretch, coax a good Guanyin slave, and be a good henpecked husband.]

[Option 2: The world always requires men to be fearless, show masculinity, and revitalize the patriarchal system.]

Zhu Chong glared and gnashed his teeth, "What are you looking at? Why don't you get in the car? Are you waiting to camp outdoors tonight?"

After saying that, Zhu Chong ignored Guanyinnu's murderous look and got straight into the carriage.

Guanyinnu looked at Zhu Chong's slightly embarrassed back and couldn't help feeling angry and amused.

But a trace of doubt flashed through my mind.

Zhu Chong is usually not like this today.

Guanyinnu frowned as she drove the car, thinking about her own things as she headed towards the official road.

[Ding, congratulations to the host, you have completed the options, bonus points +1000, elementary combat skills.]

Zhu Chong only felt that a lot of content was suddenly instilled into his brain, followed by some special changes in his body bones.

He could clearly see that the bones in his body were twisting like earthworms under his skin, but without making any sound.

When everything returned to calm, Zhu Chong felt refreshed all over, as if he had had a full body spa.

However, at this moment, Guanyin Nu suddenly shouted from outside: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"

Zhu Chong opened the carriage door in confusion and looked out. He saw three masked men in black standing in front of his carriage on the deserted official road. Each of them held a sharp sword. When they saw Zhu Chong, a cold light flashed in their eyes.

What's going on?

As soon as this thought flashed through Zhu Chong's mind, the three people opposite him came straight towards the carriage.

A masked man rushed towards Zhu Chong with a long sword, and he was so aggressive that he stabbed him while distracting him, intending to kill him with one blow.

In his two lifetimes, Zhu Chong had never seen such a scene. Who the hell wants to kill me?

Zhu Chong rolled backwards to avoid the sword, but the killer did not stop and chased him into the carriage.

Guanyinnu wanted to stop them, but the other two killers had already slashed at her, forcing her to turn around and save herself.

Inside the carriage, the killer saw the long sword flashing coldly, and the sword in his hand stabbed straight towards Zhu Chong's chest.

Zhu Chong suddenly became angry.

Do you really think I'm a sick cat?

In anger, Zhu Chong turned around, aimed at the opponent's face, and punched him angrily.

At this moment, he has mastered the basic fighting skills, and his speed is even faster than the killer's.

Seeing that Zhu Chong's fist was about to hit him in the face, the killer raised the sword in his hand, trying to deflect Zhu Chong's attack.

"Fuck you!" A fierce light flashed in Zhu Chong's eyes, and he changed his fist midway and hit the killer's lower abdomen hard.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Chong kicked out and hit the inside of the killer's legs.

The killer only had time to let out a "ugh" before he dropped the sword in his hand, covered his legs with his hands, and fell down limply.

Zhu Chong grabbed the sword dropped by the killer and rushed out, but saw Guanyin Nu rushing onto the carriage with the same sword in hand.

Behind Guanyinnu, the other two killers had already fallen to the ground, their lives or deaths unknown.

"You..." Guanyinnu looked at the murderous Zhu Chong, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

She was originally extremely anxious, worried that Zhu Chong, who was weak and helpless, had met with an accident.

But unexpectedly, Zhu Chong had already defeated the assassin and looked like he was ready to rush out of the carriage to help him.

Before Zhu Chong had time to care about Guanyin Nu, suddenly, three assassins in front and behind him had black blood flowing from the corners of their mouths almost at the same time.

They actually committed suicide by taking poison together.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Chong felt his scalp tingling.

He had just left Yingtian Prefecture when he was assassinated. The other party was obviously targeting him.

Who could be so resentful of me and so eager to assassinate me?

Guanyinnu frowned when she saw the assassin committing suicide. She walked straight up to the assassins and searched several of them, and found three identical badges.

"It's the badge of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!" Guanyinnu exclaimed and subconsciously looked at Zhu Chong.

[Ding, host, please make a choice within three seconds. If the time limit is exceeded, the system will automatically make a choice for the host.]

[Option 1: Take advantage of this situation and return to Yingtian Prefecture with the body and the badge to find out the truth!]

[Option 2: Dispose of the body on the spot and continue on your way.]

"Keep the badge. Once I've disposed of the body, we'll continue on our way."

Zhu Chong made the decision with an expressionless face. When Guanyin Nu heard this, her beautiful eyes widened.

Watching Zhu Chong casually throw the body into a pit on the side of the road and return to the car, Guanyinnu's eyes looked at Zhu Chong with a little more change.

"You don't respond to Tianfu, don't you want to find out the truth?"

[Ding, host, please make a choice within three seconds. If the time limit is exceeded, the system will automatically make a choice for the host.]

[Option 1: Appeal to Guanyin Nu's emotions, reason with her, and then shirk her responsibilities.]

[Option 2: Express your doubts and pass them on to someone who likes to think.]

Zhu Chong got on the carriage, signaled Guanyin Nu to drive, and then explained.

"The traces of the assassination just now, directed at me, were too obvious."

"No matter who is behind this, they wouldn't allow the assassin to carry the Jinyiwei badge with them."

"As I expected, there must be someone secretly observing us at this moment. Let's wait and see what happens."

After hearing Zhu Chong's explanation, Guanyinnu's beautiful eyes widened, as if she had just met the man for the first time.

However, Zhu Chong had no time to appreciate the woman's surprised expression. As he returned to the carriage, the system reward prompt sounded, which immediately made Zhu Chong beam with joy.
