Gu Hui grabbed Gu Xin and charged forward without looking back.
Although Gu Xin was worried, she didn't hold them back. She knew that although she and her sisters practiced martial arts every day, it was still not enough compared to real assassins.
Gu Shouxin would explain to a few girls what assassins are. They wouldn't fight you; they would learn how to kill someone quickly.
If you encounter an assassin, run.
If you encounter ordinary thugs or someone more upright like General Yan, you can try to exchange a few blows.
However, they had only been running for a quarter of an hour when four people caught up with them.
Hearing the commotion behind her, Gu Xin gripped the four powerful weapons Grandma Xiao had given her and gave Gu Hui a friendly reminder.
The four deadly weapons made by Grandma Xiao are indeed made with hard-to-find medicinal herbs.
The first batch was given to Cai Xiaolian and her two daughters, and a later batch was given to Gu Hui, Gu Si, and Yang Xiaohuan.
Gu Xin calmed herself down and touched the third small bamboo tube. This was called "a leaf obscuring the view," which could make a person unable to see clearly for several hours, essentially making them blind.
Gu Xin planned to first use a deceptive tactic, then unleash a torrent of attacks and scratch you to death. She decided to skip the "Xi Zi Holding Heart" technique for now, as she only had two left and had already used them several times.
As the person approached and the knife slashed down, the two sisters simultaneously bent over, then landed headfirst, curled up into a ball, performed a 360-degree spin, stood steadily, turned around, and sprinkled the powder.
One person is responsible for two.
Once the "Blinding the Eyes" technique is deployed, they have a moment to hide. The assassins are highly skilled in martial arts and have excellent hearing; just because you can't see them doesn't mean they can't kill you.
So, after hiding, I'll unleash a torrent of water and scratch you to death.
As the four assassins, blinded by their surroundings, hunted again based on the sounds they heard, they simultaneously heard several farts.
Oh no, it wasn't a fart, it was the sound of pooping.
Then my whole body started itching, and I started popping and popping again.
As soon as these sounds interrupted her, Gu Hui had already dragged Gu Xin away.
After running for a long time, they finally arrived at the post station. The two sisters breathed a sigh of relief when they saw people dressed as yamen runners.
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, each post station was staffed by officials from the two adjacent prefectures on a rotating basis.
The two sisters remained silent throughout the journey, but after arriving here and sitting down to drink a bowl of tea, they finally spoke.
"Sister Huihui, Yuanyuan and Mengmeng will be alright, right?" Gu Xin's hand holding the teacup was trembling slightly.
"Yes, nothing will happen. They're both very skilled! Besides, Meng Meng was really traumatized the other day, so this is the time for him to vent," Gu Hui comforted him.
"Sister Huihui, who are those people? Could they be that Young Master Xie's men?" Gu Xin took another sip of water and asked.
"Probably not. If he were someone like that, we wouldn't have caught him like that in Zhoujia Town! He's probably not one of Madam Xie's people either. I guess he's probably here to deal with Zhou Yuan," Gu Hui said after thinking for a moment.
"That must be Yuan Yuan's wicked stepmother! Oh no, Sister Huihui, is it because we went to the city yesterday and were discovered by Yuan Yuan's family that they took advantage of Yuan Yuan being alone and wanted to kill him?" Gu Xin stopped trembling, her eyes filled with hatred, and she gripped the cup tightly. If the cup could talk, it would be crying.
Gu Hui remained silent, which was taken as tacit agreement with Gu Xin's words.
Gu Xin pursed her lips and said seriously, "I must practice martial arts diligently so that I can help Brother Yuanyuan kill Yu Zhou in the future! I will repay him tenfold for how his stepmother treated him!"
Gu Hui raised an eyebrow, her gaze towards Gu Xin carrying a meaningful meaning.
