Zhou Jiaojiao woke up to find herself transmigrated into a book, becoming the foil character to the female protagonist, who emptied out her resources. Not only was she a fake young lady, but she wa...
Chu San stabbed the remaining people who were knocked unconscious one by one, killing them one by one.
He left only one person alive.
Just as Chu San was about to interrogate him, the chief guard came over. He was the one who was close to the prince and said, "Brother Chu, this time it's really thanks to you."
The captain of the guards was covered in blood. He had been knocked unconscious by the drug. The prince took advantage of Chu San's killing and arranged for his servants to feed the antidote to the man.
As for the prince's antidote, Lord Mo asked Zhou Jiaojiao for it before setting off. After all, the other party was of noble status, and Lord Mo also knew that Zhou Jiaojiao's medicine was effective, so he shamelessly exchanged it for gold and silver, and did not treat her unfairly.
Zhou Jiaojiao would not just sell it regardless of whether she could make money or not. Moreover, she actually wanted to observe the prince. She didn't know whether he was a wise ruler. After all, it was a good thing to take this opportunity to get to know him.
"You're welcome. It's my duty. Besides, these people were targeting me." Chu San was not happy because of the captain of the guards' closeness, nor did he think highly of himself. He was very calm throughout the whole process.
The head guard could see that he was quite capable and naturally didn't want to offend him. His smile deepened, "I'll take the men down to interrogate him."
"OK."
Chu San handed the man directly to the captain of the guards.
The captain of the guard breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.
They were originally worried that if they followed Chu San and the others, they would have a magical weapon in their hands. If they had any ulterior motives and attacked His Highness, they and the secret guards would have to eliminate a great enemy.
But if Chu San's family is good, then it will be a great help to the prince, and naturally this situation is the best.
After the captain of the guard left.
Chu San didn't care about cleaning up the mess on the battlefield. Naturally, the captain of the guards and his group would be responsible for that.
He walked quickly back home and asked, "How is it? Is everyone okay?"
Brother Chu didn't say anything, but just applied the medicine silently.
Mrs. Chu's eyes were red, but she was mostly afraid.
"Third brother, will these people still exist?" She had tried her best to face these things, but this time she saw too many dead people at once, and the psychological shock was not small.
"Sister-in-law, I don't know." Chu San scratched his hair, "How about I send you away by another path?"
"No, no, no, Third Brother, you misunderstood." Mrs. Chu quickly shook her head, fearing that Chu San would become annoyed, and explained, "I'm just scared. I don't want to be separated from my family."
Chu's mother slapped Chu San on the back and said, "You are too rough, child. You are not thoughtful enough. Women are not used to fighting and killing, so you must be afraid."
Chu San said, "Mom, you are wrong. I have also seen soldiers who died of fright on the battlefield. So this is not a gender issue. You need to adapt yourself. After doing it many times, you won't be afraid anymore."
"I know I should protect you and live an ordinary life, but..." Chu San sighed, "Now that our country is in turmoil, I'll encounter this kind of thing no matter where I am. It's better to get used to it."
Mother Chu felt that the third child had really recovered and grown up, with a relieved smile on her face, "You are right."
"Big Boss's wife, just follow me and let's practice more."
"Mom, I understand." Although Mrs. Chu was still afraid, she felt warm in her heart when she saw the care and concern of her family members around her. She was not so scared anymore, but her heartbeat was still a little faster.
Zhou Jiaojiao came over with Baoer in her arms. Seeing the family gathered together and talking, she subconsciously looked at Mrs. Chu and said, "Sister-in-law, can I prescribe some tranquilizers for you?"
"Fear of death is a normal emotion, and it's not necessarily a sign of cowardice. It's the body's protective instinct. Your body is producing this emotion to protect you, telling you to leave the dangerous situation quickly."
This was the first time Mrs. Chu had heard such a statement. "Is that really the case?"
"Of course, you were also afraid the first time you killed a chicken. But once you realized the chicken couldn't hurt you, you weren't afraid anymore. This time, the people chasing you were all assassins specially trained by wealthy families. They've killed countless people. It's normal for you to feel dangerous and afraid the first time."
Mrs. Chu's expression looked better. She was actually quite afraid that everyone would laugh at her because of this matter, but she didn't expect Zhou Jiaojiao to come over and explain it to her specifically.
She couldn't help but smile slightly.
Big Brother Chu said from the side, "I'll be watching over the two sons. Just hide if you're scared."
His words were still harsh, but Mrs. Chu was not angry. She knew that her husband cared about her and did not dislike her.
"Then I'll go help carry the body."
Mrs. Chu plucked up her courage and went with Brother Chu.
The same was true for Chu Ersao. She came from a wealthy family and had never seen these things, but it was not the first time she had seen death. Cases of servants being beaten to death were common in wealthy families. She had seen this since she was a child, so naturally she was not afraid of death.
The Chu family's mood has recovered well.
Chu San couldn't help but reach out and touch Zhou Jiaojiao's head, and said softly, "My wife, thank you."
"Actually, I'm telling you the truth. Don't disbelieve me. When you carried me back to save me and killed those bandits, it was the first time I saw dead bodies. I was terrified."
Zhou Jiaojiao patted her chest in fear.
Seeing her sincere smile, Chu San couldn't help but smile. He knew that his wife was indeed like this. She was gentle in her sincerity. She was strong when she should be strong, had her own principles, and was a very good person.
Chu San couldn't help but kiss her on the cheek in the dark.
Zhou Jiaojiao was startled by his sudden attack, and then realized his actions and laughed, "Why are you sneaking around like that?"
Chu San's sexy Adam's apple slid up and down slightly.
"Madam, I didn't do anything sneaky." Chu San denied it.
Zhou Jiaojiao pulled him over and kissed him, then said with a smile, "This is aboveboard."
Chu San's face turned red instantly, and his mood became visibly happy.
The two finished their private conversation.
Zhou Jiaojiao's face turned serious. "Husband, I don't know how many people have been sent to hunt us down. We've prepared a lot of thunder and medicine, but it would be a waste to use them on these people."
"Let's go see His Highness and take a different route."
Zhou Jiaojiao expressed her thoughts and took out the map in her hand. "Look, there are endless mountains here. There must be medicinal herbs and wild delicacies in them. Even if there are ferocious beasts, we will have no problem protecting ourselves from the thunder."
“We stopped by to collect it.”
Zhou Jiaojiao was mainly annoyed and didn’t want to be chased by others and affect her life.
She couldn't help but say, "I don't know if the people arranged by Lord Mo have made any moves. Let's quickly attract these people over."
Chu San shook his head helplessly, "Madam, space plays a huge role on the battlefield. If a spy has space, he can easily destroy the enemy's granary by himself, and those people will pursue him relentlessly."
