Having figured it out, Lin Zao stopped worrying and was quite confident in the black-clad man's abilities.
It seems it's time to leave.
Lin Zao glanced at the moon in the sky. It had been more than a month since she left home, and she couldn't delay any longer.
He turned around and went back to his room, where he tidied up his things quickly.
Actually, she didn't have much stuff. She kept the important things in her spatial storage, and just grabbed a few clothes to make do with what she had outside.
Just as Lin Zao was about to leave, she paused, thinking of the woman in the bed. If she left like this, the girl would probably not get away with it.
Well, since we're both women, I'll just lend her a hand.
After thinking it over, Lin Zao turned and walked towards the bedside.
······
The next morning, as soon as the city gates of Luolin Prefecture opened, Lin Zao was the first to leave, leading his horse.
At this point, even if the people in the prefecture noticed something unusual, they couldn't stop her.
Lin Zao had not gone far from the city gate when she saw a man dressed in black standing on a large rock by the roadside.
Seeing Lin Zao appear on time, Yue Wuyan finally suppressed the last trace of doubt in her heart.
"We've got the goods. Where do we go next?"
Lin Zao heard this, glanced at the large bundle on his back, and felt relieved.
"Ganzhou".
Yue Wuyan looked at the horse Lin Zao was leading and said:
"You go first, I'll be there soon."
After saying that, he disappeared.
Lin Zao was not surprised and guessed that the person had gone to look for the horse. After all, it was still a long way from Ganzhou, and it would take a month to reach the destination by fast horse.
No matter how skilled the man in black was, he couldn't keep up with a horse on four legs.
Lin Zao didn't delay and immediately mounted his horse. After all, they hadn't left Ganzhou yet, and if Li Zheng's men found out, there would be trouble again.
With a shout of "Giddy up!", the horse reared up and galloped swiftly ahead, leaving only a cloud of dust in its wake.
At the prefect's residence, the steward discovered that something he had carefully kept had disappeared, and he was instantly terrified.
Quickly gather all the servants in the mansion and conduct a thorough search.
He then went to report to Prefect Li Zheng.
"Smack!"
Li Zheng slapped the butler across the face, his face turning ashen.
"Useless! You can't even handle this simple task, what use are you?"
The butler was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, trembling.
"My lord, spare my life! It's all my fault. Please give me a chance. I will definitely find out the truth. Please calm down!"
Li Zheng kicked the steward in anger, yelling, "Get out of here and find out the truth for me! If you can't, I'll kill you!"
Yes, yes, yes.
The butler, terrified, ran out the door.
Before long, the steward arrived at the gate of the courtyard where Lin Zao and the others were staying, accompanied by a large group of servants.
"Go in and search! Search every inch of the place thoroughly, don't miss a single spot!"
"yes!"
A group of dozens of servants stormed into the courtyard and began searching.
The people living in the courtyard were also startled by the sudden scene.
They stepped out of the house and gathered in the courtyard, asking each other what had happened. Even the beauties they had brought back the night before were hurriedly getting dressed, looking as if they dared not breathe.
"Has something serious happened? Why did the butler bring so many people to search the place?"
"I don't know. Everything was fine last night. I hadn't had enough of the beauty in my arms yet."
"Oh my god, could an assassin have infiltrated? Or is someone stealing?"
······
The butler's fierce gaze swept across the crowd, as if trying to figure out who dared to offend him.
After looking around for a while, the butler suddenly noticed that two people were missing from the crowd—the two people who had left the deepest impression on him.
"Wang Lin, Wu Yan!"
The butler gritted his teeth and spat out two names, which were Lin Zao and Yue Wuyan's aliases.
"Butler, there's something going on here!"
