Chapter 179 The Killer Chases
The refugees were held there obediently, not daring to move. The looted items of the other exiles were returned one by one, but they really didn't get anything good, and Prince Xiao's Mansion didn't even let them touch the carriage.
"Hmph." Su Wanyan and the others also heard the wails of the refugees, but she did not sympathize with these people at all. They would help others do bad things as long as they were given a little benefit. Did they really think that there would be such an easy way to get something for nothing in this world?
"Find someone to send them to the Fuchuan County Government Office. They know exactly what to do." Ji Xiaohan heard the little princess's whining, coaxed her, and then explained to He Bo.
He Bo bowed and agreed. They were already very skilled in handling these matters.
The aftermath of the refugee riot still seemed easy and simple, as if things had just passed. But when they started on their journey again, they didn't expect that the secret guards who had never appeared before suddenly appeared and blocked their way.
"Master, there are an unknown number of assassins approaching from the front. Their hidden weapons are highly poisoned. Please lead your men to evacuate quickly."
Ji Xiaohan's expression suddenly turned cold, and he murmured in a low voice, "Why did this wave of killers appear at this time?"
Su Wanyan had been standing close to Ji Xiaohan. Hearing the man's mumbling, she raised an eyebrow curiously. What did Ji Xiaohan mean by this? Did he even know how many assassins the Dog Emperor had arranged? Did he even know when the assassins would appear?
Ji Xiaohan lowered his head and met the little princess's puzzled gaze. He didn't say much, but just rubbed the top of her head and said, "It's okay. I'll tell you in detail later."
Su Wanyan nodded and stopped asking questions. She turned her attention back to the secret guard and listened to his report on how the other party cheated and used poisonous hidden weapons.
It seems that the killer who came this time wanted to die together with the people in Prince Xiao's Mansion. Maybe he is one of the death warriors in TV who will not give up until he achieves his goal.
In order to prevent the little princess from suffering unnecessary harm, Ji Xiaohan agreed to the secret guards' proposal and took Xiao Yi, Xiao Er, He Bo, Xiao Wu, Shaoyao, Rong Mama and others to take a detour through the woods. He only left the carriage that Shaoyao and the others were riding in and half of the guards, and continued to move forward with the exile team.
The killers were tripped up by the rest of the secret guards. Although the secret guards were injured, the killers suffered no less casualties. When Ji Xiaohan and Su Wanyan entered the depths of the woods and took another road, the killers realized that Prince Xiao and his companions were missing.
It was too late to chase him by then, and they missed the best opportunity to track him.
Su Wanyan watched them walk down an increasingly remote path and whispered to Ji Xiaohan, "How about we abandon the carriage? Otherwise, it'll easily leave traces. What if those killers refuse to give up and try to catch up with us?"
Ji Xiaohan looked at the sincere eyes of the little princess and understood what she meant by "abandoned". His deep eyes, which were illuminated by the faint flashes of lightning in the darkness, looked into her eyes and said, "Okay, then I will take my men to wait for you at the front."
Su Wanyan was surprised. She didn't expect Ji Xiaohan to do this. After watching him and his men walk a distance away, they all turned their backs to her. Su Wanyan suddenly smiled. She didn't hesitate any more and waved her hand to put away the carriage and other things.
