The horse neighed in pain, turned around on the spot, and put the carriage across the middle of the road.

The culprit had already jumped dozens of feet away.

The man in black behind quickly caught up.

The guards who were blocking the middle of the road were unable to dodge and were slashed by the man in black with his sword, and several streaks of blood immediately splashed into the air.

Before the horses had gone far, the men had already fallen to the ground.

Liu Daniu was so frightened that he was shaking all over and no longer cared about Qin Shu and the others in the carriage.

He got off the carriage in a hurry and ran into the woods on the side of the road.

The four people sitting in the carriage didn't know what was happening.

There was a loud "bang" and the carriage seemed to be hit by something heavy, and the whole body shook violently.

The chaotic sound of horse hooves exploded in my ears like thunder.

After the sound of horse hooves, a faint smell of blood drifted into the carriage.

Qin Shu's heart skipped a beat and she grabbed Nanny Chun's hand tightly.

The two girls screamed in fear, their bodies spun as the carriage spun, and they both fell from the soft seats into the carriage.

Nanny Chun also held Qin Shu tightly in her arms, trying to steady her body.

Fortunately, the carriage gradually stopped and the surroundings became quiet.

The two girls looked at each other, and one of them plucked up her courage, quietly lifted the curtain on one side of the carriage and looked out.

The scene outside the carriage had become a bloody scene, and none of the six guards following behind were spared, falling to the ground with their heads and bodies separated.

The two old women knelt on the side of the road with their buttocks sticking up, their heads buried in the ground and shivering.

The girl's eyes widened, she covered her mouth tightly, and quietly retreated to her seat. With tears in her eyes, she trembled and whispered, "They are all dead..."

Qin Shu was stunned: the guard was killed, but the people in the carriage were not affected.

Is it Brother Youlin and the others?

Still a coincidence?

Was the man in black who came over a real killer, or someone who came to pick up Qin Shu?

It was already late at night, and the carriage had just reached the desolate mountains and wilderness. All the guards were dead, leaving only a few women.

The old are old, the weak are weak...

If any bandits appear at this time, they will be at their mercy.

Qin Shu slowly moved to the door of the carriage, quietly lifted the curtain and looked outside.

The carriage was lying across the middle of the road, and there was no one living at either end of the road.

The front of the car faced the mountains, and the rear was a wilderness covered with weeds.

Qin Shu held up her skirt and slowly walked to the shaft of the carriage.

The dead guard didn't even have time to draw the sword at his waist, which shows how fast the opponent's sword was.

Without the ability to protect yourself, you will be in danger at any time in a place like this.

She was too careful, all her attention focused on the murder scene under the car, and she didn't notice a figure quietly poking its head out from the bushes behind the car.

Then, he raised a small crossbow and aimed it at Qin Shu.

Then, he pulled the trigger, and the arrow flew straight towards Qin Shu with a whistle.

Just when the arrow was about to hit Qin Shu, her feet inexplicably slipped and she fell on the shaft of the cart.

His head hit the edge of the car heavily, making a dull "bang" sound.

The arrow grazed Qin Shu and hit the horse's neck.

The horse stood up suddenly, stretched its neck out like crazy, and rushed forward.

Before Qin Shu could even finish her scream, she had already rolled into the carriage.

Nanny Chun exclaimed "Miss", jumped over from her seat, stopped Qin Shu with her body, and held her in her arms.

The horse was completely out of control and was running all over the mountain.

The car was shaking more and more severely, and people could no longer sit comfortably inside.

The two maids, Nanny Chun, and Qin Shu rolled around in the carriage, leaving behind a series of screams in the weeds and gravel on the mountains.

The horse was snorting and panting as it charged forward.

From time to time, tree branches outside would scratch across the carriage, making unpleasant crackling sounds.

Qin Shu managed to steady herself with great difficulty, held on to the window, lifted the curtain, and was horrified to find that the carriage had turned onto a mountain road!

The mountain road was littered with gravel and the carriage was creaking and shaking, as if it would fall apart at any moment.

Nanny Chun hugged Qin Shu tightly, her face turned pale with fear.

Qin Shu's heart was pounding. She grabbed Aunt Chun's hand and shouted in a trembling voice, "Auntie!"

Nanny Chun's voice was also trembling. She said urgently, "We have to find a way to stop the horses. After we cross this mountain, we will reach Luochuan Stream. If the carriage falls, we will be dead!"

Qin Shu bit her lip hard: What's going on?

Did something go wrong with Li Youlin's arrangement?

Or did the people arranged by Qin Jingchang want to take the opportunity to get rid of her?

Cold sweat kept streaming down her cheeks. Qin Shu was at a loss and had no idea what to do. She couldn't think of a way and didn't have the ability to subdue a mad horse.

Just when Qin Shu was extremely anxious but helpless, the carriage suddenly made a loud "click" sound, and the entire carriage bounced high up.

Then, both the horse and the carriage suddenly flew into the air and fell rapidly downwards.

There was a sudden burst of screams in the carriage.

Qin Shu hugged Nanny Chun tightly, and just as she was about to try whether they could enter the space together, she heard a muffled "bang" coming from above the carriage.

It looked like someone had fallen on it.

Qin Shu's heart sank and she felt a chill all over her body. She didn't know whether the people outside were enemies or friends.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, a pair of familiar peach blossom eyes peeked into the carriage from the top of the carriage.

Qin Shu's tears fell uncontrollably.

The pair of peach blossom eyes curved and retracted, and soon after, a masked man in black appeared on the shaft of the carriage.

When the man entered the carriage, the two maids screamed loudly as if they had found a savior, pushed Qin Shu and Nanny Chun away, and rushed over together.

Like clinging to a vine, all its hands and feet were tightly wrapped around the man's legs.

Qin Shu heard the man curse softly, raised her hand, turned her fist into a palm, and cut the two men's necks fiercely.

The two girls immediately fell down.

The man kicked the two maids away one by one, and just before the carriage fell into the water, he held Qin Shu and Nanny Chun under his armpits, holding their waists tightly.

Then, he quickly flew out of the carriage, lightly touched the top of the carriage with his toes, and flew up with the two of them.

Before Qin Shu could utter a sigh, she felt herself falling straight down again, rapidly towards the water surface.

A bamboo pole as thick as a wrist whizzed over the water and landed right at the feet of the masked man.

Qin Shu landed unsteadily, and the man in black failed to catch her. She staggered and fell to the side while screaming.

A thin bamboo pole suddenly stretched out and gently blocked Qin Shu's waist.

Qin Shu, who finally stood firm, was still frightened. She threw away her reserve and hugged the man's waist tightly.

The peach blossom eyes exposed outside the face mask curved into crescent shapes again.

The long pole was retracted and pushed into the water, and a small willow-leaf fishing boat floated over.

The tall Li Youlin stood at the stern of the boat, smiling and extending his hand to Qin Shu, "Miss."

Before Qin Shu could reach out her hand, the man in black beside her had already handed Nanny Chun forward.

Li Youlin gave the man a displeased look and dragged Nanny Chun onto the boat.

The man in black put his arm around Qin Shu's waist, jumped off the bamboo pole, and landed lightly on the boat.

Only then did he release the hand around Qin Shu's waist.

Qin Shu breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to the man, "Thank you for saving my life! I will never forget your kindness."

The man pulled the veil off his face, revealing a row of neat, white teeth, curved peach blossom eyes, and dimples on his red lips. "My name is Xiao Cheng, and my courtesy name is Rong Feng. Miss Qin, you don't have to be polite, just call me Rong Feng."
