Chapter 149: Robbed on the Road
This was the way she and Ah Shen had agreed to meet. When they agreed on this secret code, she was not very familiar with it. She practiced for an entire afternoon before she barely learned it. After that, she never had the chance to use it.
Who would have thought that the first time she used it would be when they said goodbye.
Not long after, an oil lamp appeared at the end of the path, getting closer and closer until it came in front of Lin Baoer and Qinglian.
Even though it was not the first time she saw this little monk, Qinglian was still startled by the birthmark on his face and tried hard not to look at his face.
"Sister Qinglian, wait for me here."
Lin Baoer pulled Qinglian's hand, looked up at her, and pointed to the wooden shelf on the other side, "A Shen and I are talking there, it's very close, and we'll be back after we're done."
Seeing that it was not far from here and could be seen, Qinglian nodded.
When handing Lin Baoer the oil lamp, she did not forget to remind her, "Fourth Miss, call me if you have anything, and don't hold the lamp too close, just hold it like this."
Lin Baoer nodded obediently.
After walking to the wooden shelf, Lin Baoer put the oil lamp aside, and the little person struggled to climb onto the shelf and sat down, sighing softly.
This sigh made A Shen very uneasy, especially because Lin Baoer had never come to see him so late, which made him even more uneasy.
"Bao'er, why are you here to see me so late... is there something?" He was feeling anxious, holding the oil lamp tightly with both hands, and his eyelashes trembled slightly.
Lin Bao'er shook her legs and said angrily, "Ah Shen, I'm leaving tomorrow."
"Leaving?" Ah Shen was stunned, "What do you mean by leaving?"
"I'm leaving Frost Temple." Lin Bao'er looked at him and explained, "Something happened at home, so I left in such a hurry. My mother just told me."
Ah Shen didn't say anything, and the hand holding the oil lamp dropped a little.
"What time tomorrow?" He asked softly.
"It should be around the hour of Mao. My mother said it would be very early." Lin Bao'er pouted, "It happened suddenly, so I asked my mother to let me come out to say goodbye to you, Ah Shen, otherwise I'm afraid I won't have time tomorrow."
Ah Shen pursed his lips, clenched his hands tighter and tighter, and said nothing.
Didn't he know this day would come? Why was he so sad?
Was it just because... it came too soon?
"After I leave, A Shen must be well." Lin Baoer smiled at him and stretched out her fist. "If someone bullies you again, don't just accept it, but fight back! Even if you can't win, you have to show him your blood! Otherwise, you will always be bullied, okay?"
"Yes."
"Also, don't give all the meat to your brothers. You are still growing up, so you need to eat more meat to supplement your nutrition, otherwise you won't grow tall."
"Okay."
"You also have to learn to say no when your brothers order you around, and you also have to learn to say no to things you don't like to do, okay?"
"Yes."
"Ah Shen, this is the medicine my brother gave me. It can treat internal injuries."
Lin Baoer handed him a small box solemnly, "There is only one pill, it has miraculous effects, you must use it when you are injured."
At the same time, she handed him a box, "This is for external application."
She looked at him seriously and reminded him, "Be sure, be sure, don't lose it."
This is the antidote she spent 300 points to redeem. It is a top-grade one. According to the system, birthmarks can also be regarded as toxins brought from the mother's womb. So after hesitating again and again, she still redeemed one, hoping that it would be useful for Ah Shen.
"Okay."
His voice was a little hoarse.
"Okay, Ah Shen, I'm leaving. If I go back later, my mother will probably scold me."
Lin Baoer pouted, jumped off the wooden shelf, and patted her butt.
As soon as he lowered his head, he could see the face that always had a bright smile on it. Ah Shen was dazed for a moment, and slowly squatted down.
Just like he had always done before.
"Baoer, I'll take you there tomorrow."
This was the only sentence he said at the end.
Lin Baoer smiled and agreed, "Okay! Then don't be late."
Ah Shen nodded heavily.
Although she was still worried that Ah Shen's personality would be bullied here, Lin Baoer could only suppress this worry temporarily.
After all, she couldn't protect him all her life. After the matter of the third prince was over, she would come to see him again.
Or she could send someone to take care of him occasionally. Anyway, the Lin family was rich and powerful, so it should be no problem to protect one person.
In this way, Lin Baoer comforted herself.
While she fell asleep peacefully, she had a sleepless night.
The next day.
At daybreak, Lin Baoer was pulled out of the quilt by Shen Xuelan. Before she even had time to open her eyes, she was packed up by Shen Xuelan and taken to the carriage.
"Mother! Wait a minute! Ashen said he would come to see me off today!"
Lin Baoer stopped the carriage and stood in front of it, looking at the Frost Temple.
Seeing her insistence, Shen Xuelan had to agree.
After waiting for an unknown period of time, Lin Baoer was almost blown into an ice sculpture by the cold wind, but that person still didn't come.
"Lao Gao, let's go." Shen Xuelan ordered. She touched Lin Baoer's disappointed little face and said softly, "Maybe he was delayed by something, but we can't wait any longer. Can Baoer understand?"
Lin Baoer nodded disappointedly.
They had been waiting for an incense stick. Shen Xuelan gave her enough face. Lin Baoer also understood, so she didn't say anything.
There is a mountain road down the mountain from Hanshuang Temple, but the mountain road is quite large and has been well repaired, so it is not difficult to walk.
But after all, it was bad luck. When crossing a step, the carriage got stuck.
"Madam, you may have to wait for a while."
Lao Gao got off the carriage to check the situation and asked the people in the carriage behind to come over to help and see if the carriage can be pushed out of the step.
In order not to increase their burden, Lin Baoer and Shen Xuelan also got off the carriage.
"Madam, this is for you." Qinglian handed another soup pot to Shen Xuelan, and then prepared to take some dry food from the bag to give her.
The accident happened at this moment.
When Qinglian bent down to take the dry food, an arrow suddenly shot over her head and fixed on the tree trunk behind them.
This scene shocked everyone.
All the maids were panicked, and all the people gathered around Shen Xuelan, looking around in fear.
Immediately afterwards, another arrow was shot, and this time it hit a maid and killed her on the spot.
"Ahhh! Someone is dead! Someone is dead!"
"Run! Run!"
Qinglian and Shen Xuelan were also panicked, protecting Lin Baoer and running back, and the group of people suddenly became chaotic.
At this time, the hunter also appeared.
It was a group of men in black, each holding a long knife, with bows and arrows on their backs, constantly shooting arrows in the direction they were running.
Looking at them, Lin Baoer felt cold in her heart.
It's over.
