She took off her dirty outer robe and sneaked out of the dark room.
It was quiet outside; the people must have gone into hiding again.
Nanqianyue dared not swagger down the street; she wandered through the alleys between the houses, trying to find a place that led to the outside world.
Even a forest will do.
However, fate was not on her side. Before she could find a way out, she encountered the armored man who had captured her.
However, she has not yet been found hiding behind the water tank in the deep alley.
Nanqianyue dared not move, fearing that if she made a sound, she would be captured again by the armored man.
They could only hide in the water tank and wait for the armored man to leave before making their move.

As soon as they moved south, Yue gripped her toes tightly, barely daring to breathe.

"It's you!? Guards! The spy has escaped! Arrest the spy!"
The old woman opened her mouth and roared, while the man who had migrated south felt his heart bleed. He cursed the old woman's ancestors for eighteen generations and then ran away.
