When they arrived at the next town, Qi Pan went to the inn as usual, asked for an ordinary room, and led the old horse and donkey to the backyard.
He gave them some more silver, fed them water and fodder himself, and then went to the guest room.
I asked the waiter to get some hot water, wiped my face, took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and finally lay down on the bed.
She was really exhausted from the journey these days.
After I had a good rest and went downstairs to eat, it was almost dark when I planned to go out for a walk.
The curfew was at 1:15 in the evening, and it was still early, so Qi Pan walked slowly on the street.
"stop!"
“Don’t run!”
"Give me back my things!"
"Thief! Catch the thief!!!"
There was a commotion coming from the front, and Qi Pan stood not far away curiously, looking up.
I saw a thin little boy who looked about seven or eight years old. He was wearing tattered clothes, his hair was piled on his head like weeds, and his little face was dark and thin and covered with dirt.
The little boy was holding a purse in his hand and was moving flexibly among the crowd.
Behind the little boy was a handsome young man from a wealthy family, who looked about twelve or thirteen years old. He was chasing the boy while screaming and shouting, "Catch the thief."
The handsome face was fair with a hint of red. Qi Pan could tell at a glance that this person was a woman disguised as a man, just like her.
Out of mutual help among women, Qi Wang helped to stop the man.
He grabbed the little boy who stole the purse by the back of his collar and lifted him up.
“Let me go! Let me go!!”
Suddenly someone caught him. The little boy struggled, kicked his legs and shouted. When he couldn't get free, he turned his head and opened his mouth to bite!
“Bang!”
Qi Pan slapped the little boy on the head and said, "Shut up! If you dare to bite me, I'll break your teeth."
The little boy immediately became obedient. His intuition told him that this person was not someone to be trifled with. If he really dared to open his mouth and bite him, it would definitely be more than just breaking his teeth.
For the sake of his own life, he covered his mouth and kept silent, then stopped struggling.
Tang Mengyu saw that the thief she was chasing was finally caught, and hurried forward to thank him, "Thank you, thank you for helping me catch this thief!"
She snatched her purse back from the thief and said, "You little kid, why do you have to steal my purse when you can do something else?"
"Small thieves won't last long. If you run into someone with a bad temper one day, they'll beat you to death!"
After teaching the thief a lesson, Tang Mengyu pleaded with him, "Brother, please let him go. Thank you for your help. I will treat you to a meal."
No one else cared, and Qi Pan didn't do anything more. He put the child on the ground and let go of his hand.
As soon as his hands loosened, the child ran away, blended into the crowd, and disappeared in a few seconds.
"You don't have to worry about eating. It's just a piece of cake."
Qi Pan turned around and tried to leave, but Tang Mengyu suddenly stopped her, "Brother, let me treat you to a meal!"
"You helped me get my purse back, which was a big favor. How can I just let you go like that? Let me thank you."
Qi Pan frowned and said, "No need, I have something else to do."
"Hey? Hey?!"
Tang Mengyu stomped her feet in anger as she watched the person turn around and leave without hesitation.
Damn it!
Why didn't this person fall for it?!
She was so angry!
Thinking of her brother's order, she turned around and chased after him, "Hey? Brother! Wait for me!"
Tang Mengyu followed this man all the way, trying to get close to him, showing his courtesy, and even inviting him to dinner and back home, but this man just wouldn't listen.
It made her very angry.
Qi Pan felt more and more that something was wrong with this person. She helped her at first just because they were both women and she did it out of convenience.
Later, she found that this person always wanted to invite her to dinner and asked her to go to her house, saying that she wanted her parents to thank her in person.
She refused, but the man still refused to give in and insisted that she go to her house, as if he would tie her up and take her there if she refused.
Qi Pan found an excuse and quickly got rid of her with the help of the crowd. After walking around for a long time, he returned to the inn.
The next day, as soon as he walked out of the inn, he bumped into a young man with a feminine appearance, dark circles under his eyes, unsteady steps, and rich clothes.
The young master was accompanied by a dozen tall and strong guards.
Upon seeing Qi Pan, the young man's eyes lit up, "That's him! Catch him for me!"
Qi Pan frowned. Who is this person? Why are they arresting her?
A dozen guards gathered around him, ready to fight. Qi Pan backed away, pinching the powder in his hand, "Why are you arresting me?"
"Why so many whys? I want to catch you, so come on!"
The feminine young man waved his hand, and more than a dozen guards rushed forward together!
Qipan seized the opportunity and raised the medicine powder in his hand!
"ah!!"
“Cough cough cough!”
"What is this?"
Seven or eight guards fell to the ground instantly, and the remaining guards retreated defensively. The feminine man's face darkened for a moment and he raised his hand again.
"I have something. Do you think this young master only has these few people? Come out, attack!"
Ten figures instantly appeared behind the Yinrou Young Master. It was obvious that these ten people were different from the guards in front. They had actually seen blood and killed people.
Moreover, their actions were swift, and it was obvious that they had some martial arts background.
If there were only those guards and three or four people, Qi Pan would be confident that she could handle it, but with ten people plus seven or eight guards, nearly twenty people, she was not sure she could guarantee her own safety.
She didn't know why this person wanted to arrest her.
Qi Pan did not hesitate to throw out a handful of medicine powder when those people rushed towards him, found the breakthrough point, kicked them away and ran away!
Three or four more guards fell down, and the ten people were obviously protected, and the powder had no effect on them at all.
He only stopped them for a moment before quickly chasing in the direction of Qi Pan's escape!
There was amusement and determination in the feminine man's eyes. If that loser wasn't useless, he wouldn't have to come out to look for him in person.
"Bang!"
Qi Pan drew out the soft knife from her body and slashed the throats of two of the men who had chased her and surrounded her.
The other eight people showed vigilance. They didn't expect that the person they met this time would be so difficult to deal with. He killed two of them with one move!
The guards who were a step behind in catching up did not dare to move forward when they saw the dead body.
The people on the street had long since fled, leaving only empty streets.
The eight people tentatively approached Qi Pan little by little, surrounding her in the middle, and each of them had a weapon in his hand.
There are spears, swords, daggers, hammers and nunchakus.
The situation is not favorable for Qi Pan!
The feminine man stood outside the crowd and said, "Put down the knife, be obedient, and follow me back home."
"If you resist again and accidentally hurt your arms or legs, don't blame me for not feeling sorry for you."
Qi Pan's attention was focused on the eight people surrounding her. "I just want to know why you arrested me?"
"There's no reason. This young master has a crush on you. Is that reason enough?"
