Chapter 144 Our young lady is so awesome!
An Yi and An Er got two horses and followed closely behind, just to catch up with the carriage that was moving further and further away.
In the middle of the night, when the moon had already set in the west, Yun Lei slowly stopped the carriage. "Miss, the horses have reached their limit. It might not be appropriate to continue. Wait until daybreak. I will go into the city to exchange for good horses and then continue on our journey."
Inside the carriage, Lan Xiyue responded softly with "hmm", then lifted the curtain and walked out of the carriage.
The bumpy ride of the day, even in the spacious and comfortable carriage, could not completely relieve her fatigue from lying down all day.
Chuchun and Chuxia had already fallen asleep in the car and were snoring.
Seeing this, Yun Dian said, "Miss, there's still an hour until dawn. Wouldn't you like to take a rest?"
Lan Xiyue shook her head. "Yunlei, Yundian, you two should take this opportunity to rest. I'll keep watch."
Yun Lei frowned slightly upon hearing this and quickly declined, "Miss, you should go and rest. I have subordinates waiting here."
Lan Xiyue waved her hand. "No need to say more. I've already slept a full day in the carriage. You, on the other hand, need to rest up. We have to go into the city to change horses after dawn and continue our journey."
Yun Lei and Yun Dian looked at each other, they stopped refusing, and each found a big tree, leaned against the trunk and closed their eyes to rest.
At this moment, An Yi and An Er in the distance also stopped. An Er hurried back and whispered, "They finally stopped."
An Yi sighed and rubbed his sore eyes. "Let's take this opportunity to rest for a while. After daybreak, we will definitely be busy again. Tell me, where is our future princess going? We have already passed the Huguo Temple."
An Yi paused, a sudden flash of inspiration in his eyes: "Oh! An Er, do you think Miss Lan is... going to find the master?"
An Er was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, "An Yi, you're right, this is really possible! Miss Lan might have gone on this trip to find her master. Think about it, I found out that Miss Lan was originally going to the Huguo Temple to chant sutras for her mother's soul-relief, and she planned to stay there for three months. But now she has passed the Huguo Temple and did not stop. This can only mean that Miss Lan is not going to the Huguo Temple, but the real reason is to find her master."
An Yi flashed and hurriedly shuttled through the forest path. He glanced around, quickly picked up the scattered firewood, brought it back, and lit a blazing fire.
An Er looked at him in confusion, "What are you doing?"
"Write a letter to the master!" After saying this, An Yi began to write the letter in the light of the fire.
After the letter was written, with a crisp whistle, a well-trained carrier pigeon flapped its wings and flew high, breaking the silence of the night, carrying An Yi's secret letter, and disappeared into the vast night.
An Yi watched the carrier pigeon fly away, smiled, and said confidently: "An Er, if the master sees this letter, he will definitely be happy."
An Er frowned slightly when he heard this, "An Yi, these are all our speculations. If Miss Lan is not here to look for her master, then this letter..." He didn't finish his words, but his deep worry was revealed.
Upon hearing this, An Yi's body stiffened involuntarily and he said stubbornly, "How could this be possible? Miss Lan is a wealthy woman and has never been far away. If she is not looking for her master, where else could she be going?" After he finished speaking, he flashed and jumped onto a big tree, lying on the trunk with his eyes closed to rest.
An Er shook his head and put out the fire. The moment the flames went out, his figure blended into the night. He jumped lightly and climbed onto a tree. He leaned against the trunk and closed his eyes to rest.
On the other side, Lan Xiyue stretched her muscles and then sat outside the carriage.
Suddenly, she narrowed her eyes and looked into the darkness.
At the same time, Yun Dian and Yun Lei also walked to the side of the carriage with a vigilant look on their faces, and stood in their respective positions. The long swords in their hands gleamed coldly in the moonlight. They looked at the darkness around them with a vigilant look on their faces. The air was filled with a tense feeling of impending storm.
After a while, ten figures in black emerged from the darkness like ghosts. Their aura was calm and dangerous, and their eyes were as cold as ice. They were obviously well-trained killers.
Lan Xiyue narrowed her eyes slightly and sneered in her heart. She was very familiar with this murderous aura. This was a well-trained killer.
Who, exactly, hated her so much that he'd spared no expense to hire a killer to kill her? Lan Lingrou? Yun Yiyi? Or Bai Lianyan? The names of these three flashed through her mind. Apart from them, she couldn't think of anyone else who could be so ruthless.
Just as her thoughts were in turmoil, the man in black gave her no time to think. With a wave of his hand, he launched a fierce attack on her and the carriage like a phantom in the dark night.
Seeing this, Yunlei and Yundian immediately rushed forward, their swords flashing like weaving, and started a fierce fight with the man in black.
Seeing this, Lan Xiyue curled up the corner of her mouth into a sneer, and with a flash of thought, a dagger appeared in her hand. If the tiger doesn't show its power, does it really think she is easy to bully?
She suddenly jumped out of the carriage, her figure like a ghost, her movements strange and unpredictable, and she immediately started fighting with the man in black.
Her movements were swift and precise, and each strike hit the vital points, catching the man in black off guard.
Yun Lei and Yun Dian, the two accompanying guards, could not help but be surprised when they saw this. They had never expected that their young lady would have such a strange figure and move so fast as lightning. For a moment, the two of them were a little distracted, as if they could not believe their eyes.
"Are you still distracted at this time? You're risking your life. Solve it quickly!" Lan Xiyue's voice was cold, instantly bringing Yun Lei and Yun Dian's thoughts back to reality.
The two men suddenly woke up, and their attack became extremely fierce in an instant. With swords flashing like weaving, they started a fierce fight with the man in black.
Inside the carriage, the maids, Chuchun and Chuxia, were awakened by the sounds of fighting outside, their sleepy eyes tinged with fear. Cautiously, they poked their heads out and saw, in the moonlight, Lan Xiyue locked in a fierce struggle with the man in black.
"Miss..." Chuchun and Chuxia exclaimed, their voices trembling. Their eyes followed Lan Xiyue closely, fearing that she would be hurt in the slightest.
Lan Xiyue glanced at them sharply and said, "Stay in the carriage and don't get out."
Chuchun and Chuxia shuddered and quickly retreated into the car, but their eyes were always looking outside.
They clutched the corners of their clothes nervously, their fingers turning white from the effort. Chuchun swallowed and said, "Chuxia, our young lady is so powerful. We don't know martial arts and can't cause trouble for her."
Chu Xia nodded vigorously, "Well, Chu Chun, when did the young lady learn martial arts? How come we don't know?"
Chuchun thought for a moment and said, "Young lady is very clever. Perhaps she has been secretly learning medicine, but we just don't know about it. We haven't seen her learn any medical skills before. Look, the eldest young master sent a medical book. Young lady, take a look at it, and you will find that her medical skills are better than those doctors."
Chu Xia nodded, then her face turned angry again, and she even forgot to be afraid. "Who on earth wants to kill our young lady? Damn it!"
