As soon as he came in, Jun Yumo saw Chaoge leaning against the carriage, his face pale and sweat all over his forehead.
Yun Chaoyu sat next to her, holding a cup of water in her hand, obviously wanting to give it to Chaoge to drink, but she didn't have time to give it to her.
Hearing Jun Yumo's voice, Chaoge's thoughts were interrupted.
She slowly opened her eyes and forced a tired smile: "It's okay, I just felt a little uncomfortable just now."
"Sister, drink some water first."
Chaoge took the teacup and drank it all in one gulp. His tired mind felt a little better.
“I didn’t dare to look to see if there were a lot of snakes outside, but just now a snake tried to crawl in through the window, so I shot it to death with the crossbow my eldest sister gave me and threw it out.
I still feel the snake smell on my hands, it's very uncomfortable."
“Well, there are many talented people in Zhannan Country, and the one we met should be one of them.
I wonder if the sudden interruption of the flute sound just now indicates that the man ran away and Mo Qi and his men have gone to catch him. "
"Are you using the sound of the flute to control the snakes and make them attack us?"
Chaoge pretended not to know and asked after taking a deep breath.
“Well, this is one of those things.
There are also some people who can control flying birds. Anyway, Zhannan Kingdom is a very evil place.
When you arrive in Zhannan, try not to eat food given by strangers, and we cannot just stay in other people’s homes.”
Chaoge frowned, his thoughts drifting away, and he suddenly remembered the places of ethnic minorities in his previous life.
"This Zhannan Country is so weird, why is it still the weakest among these countries?"
Chaoge was a little confused and asked about the doubts in his mind.
Logically speaking, with so many evil tricks in Zhannan Kingdom, it should be easy for it to secretly deal with several countries.
But according to her understanding, for so many years, the Zhannan Kingdom has always been at the bottom of the five countries.
The only thing that can make Zhannan Kingdom proud is their medical skills and medicinal materials.
In terms of military and economy, it is simply at the bottom.
“It’s because there are too many evil ways in their country that they have always been suppressed by other countries.
Apart from their medicinal materials which can be circulated in other countries, almost everything else from their country will not be purchased or boycotted by other countries.
In addition, the terrain also limits their military reserves, but it also has advantages.
For example, it would be a difficult problem for other countries to break in and reach their imperial capital.
Therefore, even though the Zhannan Kingdom is not as wealthy as the Dongxiang Kingdom and the Canglan Dynasty, it also has its own strength.
The other countries will not act rashly against him."
Chaoge understood Jun Yumo's careful explanation immediately.
Yun Chaoyu was also there, listening quietly.
Once upon a time, she was just a country girl who wanted to earn a few more pennies, and she had never considered these national affairs.
But after spending some time with her elder sister and brother-in-law, she seemed to have opened the door to a new world and gained a better understanding of the outside world.
In less than half a cup of tea, Moqi and his men who had gone to capture the flute player returned.
"Master, the man has been caught."
"Okay, take him to an open area first, then interrogate him."
Outside the carriage were corpses of slaughtered snakes. Jun Yumo, who was a mysophobic person, didn't want to go out and take a closer look.
The carriage stepped on the corpses of the snakes and moved forward slowly again.
The man who was captured had his hands and feet tied, his acupoints pressed, and then he was thrown on the backs of the horses of the guards in front.
The carriage continued to move forward for about half an hour, and finally found an open space that was not so dangerous, and slowly stopped.
Chaoge and his companions also got off the carriage to get some fresh air.
As soon as they came down, they saw the flute player who was thrown to the ground and tied up by Moqi and his men.
It’s hard to describe how this person looks.
I don’t know if it’s because of what he studied or if it’s just the way he looks.
Anyway, this person gives people a very dark feeling.
"Who sent you to intercept us?"
Mo Qi directly put a sword against the man's throat and asked in a cold voice.
The man pretended to be dead and didn't say a word. He looked as if he would do whatever you wanted, and Chaoge frowned when he saw it.
"Don't think you can get away with it by not speaking up. We won't let you die so easily."
After hearing what Mo Qi said, the man pretending to be dead finally opened his eyes slowly.
This man has sunken cheeks, but his eyes are extremely bright.
His entire body was covered in a wide black robe.
He looked at the sword against his neck, a sinister smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I am just taking money from others and helping them get rid of disasters.
You asked me who I was, but I don’t know either.”
This sentence clearly showed his attitude. No matter whether it was true or false, Jun Yumo did not intend to waste any more time.
"In that case, just tie him up on the back of the carriage and take him away.
He doesn’t want to live anyway.”
After saying that, Jun Yumo took Chaoge and got on the carriage.
He was not too curious about those who wanted to assassinate him. After all, there were too many people who wanted to kill him.
After a while, the carriage continued to move forward. The man was still tied up like a dumpling, and even the acupuncture points on his body were not untied. He was dragged behind the carriage with a thick hemp rope, moving forward all the way.
Behind him, the third and fifth brothers were following on horseback. Even if he had the ability to break free, the two would not give him any chance!
Sure enough, no matter how tough this man was, as soon as the carriage started running, his voice was heard!
Especially when the carriage turned a sharp bend on the mountain road, his body was tied up like a dumpling and he almost fell off the cliff several times!
His back was already covered in blood and mud. The pain was so severe that no matter how tough he was, he begged for mercy.
But Jun Yumo turned a deaf ear to his pleas for mercy.
Chaoge was better off, but was also somewhat annoyed by the man's voice.
Yun Chaoyu had never witnessed her brother-in-law's cruel methods. When she heard the screams outside and looked at Jun Yumo's eyes, she couldn't help but feel a little afraid.
In her eyes, her brother-in-law has always been a gentle man.
At least that's how it seemed to her eldest sister and other family members, but at this moment, it seemed that she truly realized how extraordinary her brother-in-law was.
She tried to hold back, but still couldn't help it and pushed open the rear window of the carriage and looked out.
Just one glance and she was so scared that she quickly closed the car window and retracted her neck.
"Brother-in-law, he's already begging for mercy, why don't you give him a chance to speak?"
"He'll just ask to die, and I don't want to waste my time."
"ah?"
"How about giving it a try?"
Seeing the obvious disbelief in Yun Chaoyu's eyes, Jun Yumo glanced at her sideways.
Yun Chaoyu nodded repeatedly. She didn’t believe that Jun Yumo was someone who could so see through human nature.
