The uncle borrowed some merits, and the princess drew the talisman fiercely

Dai Xu couldn't help but touch his nose when he saw Lord Chen bringing people out.

"I'm bored, so I came to see if there's anything I can help with."

That’s not right. Why hasn’t Miss Lu arrived yet?

She was clearly in front of him.

It’s all the driver’s fault. He lost the person after following him for a long time. If that road hadn’t led to this village, he might not have been able to get here.

"boring?"

Lin Rong's face sank. "Then you'd better leave here."

Dai Xu looked at him in disbelief, "Lord Lin, we can't even enter the city gate now. Do you still want to chase me away?"

"Even if you spend the night outside the city gate, it's better than staying here. Don't you have a carriage? Just stay in the carriage tonight."

Lin Rong really gave Dai Xu some conscientious advice.

After hearing what he said, Lord Chen also nodded and said, "Prince Dai, I also think Lord Lin's suggestion is good."

Dai Xu stared at Lord Chen with wide eyes.

That’s not right. Lord Chen seems to have become a different person.

In the past, when Lord Chen saw him, he would nod and bow to him, and say nice things to praise him and obey him.

Seeing him coming here, Lord Chen should have quickly arranged a room for him and said something like, "The conditions here are not good, Young Master, please be more considerate."

What's going on with Lord Chen now?

After Lord Chen captured those Hu merchants, he had someone give Lord Chen some silver, asking him to "treat" those Hu merchants well.

At that time, Lord Chen was very tactful.

"Lord Lin, how about your wife and daughter also stay at the city gate for the night?"

Lord Chen looked at Lin Rong again and saluted to Madam Lin, but he was injured and his movements looked a little stiff.

Madam Lin and Lin Yanran also bowed to Lord Chen.

They were all a little panicked, and now they realized that the situation was serious and they really shouldn't have come.

Although it was a bit uncomfortable and scary to spend the night outside the city in a carriage, Mrs. Lin still spoke after seeing her husband's expression.

"Husband, has something happened? If it is inconvenient for us to stay, then we will listen to you and stay under the city gate for a night. We will make ourselves known and the guards on the city tower will probably take care of us. Nothing will happen."

Lin Yanran nodded after hearing what her mother said.

Dai Shizi shouted.

"No, why do you really have this plan? You're going to spend the night outside the city gate. Aren't you afraid that some old beggars will sneak onto your carriage in the middle of the night?"

"What if a frog or a snake crawls onto the carriage in the middle of the night? Wouldn't you be afraid?"

"I heard that at midnight, some wandering ghosts will gather under the city wall. They are suppressed by the imperial city's aura and cannot enter the city, but they can enter your carriage!"

Dai Xu had heard a lot of nonsense stories before.

I heard that there are city ghosts in the city, but if someone dies outside, they will still abide by the rules of the human world as they did when they were alive.

For example, once the city gates are closed at night, those wandering ghosts outside cannot enter the city, but they want to get close to the city walls, so they wander around outside.

Lin Yanran was so frightened by what Dai Xu said that her back went cold and she couldn't help but hold her mother's arm tightly.

"Prince Dai!"

Mrs. Lin was annoyed and interrupted Dai Xu.

She was just about to comfort Yanran and tell her that this would not happen, but Lin Rong spoke.

"Since you're already here, just stay."

If it were in the past, he might not have taken Dai Xu's words to heart. What was so scary about them?

But now he really doesn't dare to be so sure.

"Yes, yes, you should come in and spend the night."

Master Chen quickly changed his words, "The Shu family farm is quite large, there must be room for you to live."

Dai Xu wanted to roll his eyes.

"what about me?"

"Your Highness Dai can stay," Lin Rong said, "but if anything happens, you will be responsible for it yourself."

"Okay, okay, I came here on my own, okay?"

Dai Xu walked towards Lord Chen, "Lord Chen, come on, come on, tell me what's so exciting about coming here..."

He put his arm around Lord Chen's shoulder and walked inside like a good brother.

Lord Chen was led by him to move a little too heavily, which pulled the wound. He immediately screamed and subconsciously reached out to cover the wound.

But just as he covered it, he thought of Lin Rong's family behind him, so he quickly withdrew his hand.

It was too late. Madam Lin and Lin Yanran had already noticed his actions, and Dai Xu had also noticed it.

He leaned back and looked behind Master Chen. "Where is Master Chen injured?"

Lord Chen's face turned green.

What on earth is going on in the mind of Dai Shizi, a playboy? Why is his eyes and tone so wrong?

"Dad, are we causing you any trouble?"

Lin Yanran walked closer to Lin Rong and said, "I wanted to come here. It has nothing to do with mother."

Lin Rong sighed, told them the situation here in a few words, and then took them to Yu Kexian.

"This is Miss Yu. You should stay next door to her tonight so that you can take care of each other."

Yu Kexian looked at Madam Lin and her daughter and nodded, "Don't worry, Master Lin. I will protect them."

Yu Kexian didn't take Lin Rong's words about taking care of each other to heart at all.

She practices martial arts, how could she need the care of a weak woman?

She felt that Lord Lin was a little dishonest. He clearly wanted her to take good care of his wife and daughter, but he said that they should take care of each other.

Can't he just ask her openly to help protect his wife and daughter?

After Lin Rong made arrangements for his wife and daughter, he took his men and left Shujiazhuang and went to Sunjiazhuang.

The Sun family's farm is brightly lit at this moment.

There were torches on the walls outside.

Sun Ping also led everyone to reinforce the wall, and had people sharpen bamboo arrows. He also arranged for several young and strong men with some hunting experience to patrol with bows and knives.

"We haven't had any wild animals rush into our farm yet, but the fields outside have been trampled by them. There was also an old man patrolling outside who was hit by a wild sheep. Fortunately, he ran away quickly and others went out in time to throw torches to drive it away, so he was not injured."

When Sun Ping heard about what happened at Shujiazhuangzi, his expression became serious.

"There is a stream between us and Lishan. Maybe that's why the wild beasts didn't come over. I have asked people to dig up the stone bridge over the stream first."

"But I'm so nervous. I always feel like something will happen tonight."

Lin Rong saw him clutching his chest with his hands, "Do you have the amulet that Miss Lu gave you?"

"Yes, yes, yes."

Sun Ping was able to calm down a little because of this amulet.

"We will stay here tonight and go into Lishan early tomorrow morning."

Sun Ping quickly said, "Then I will go with you tomorrow."

He has a talisman.

At Shujia Manor, a horse-drawn carriage came and stopped outside the manor.

Lu Zhaoling jumped off the carriage.

"Miss Lu!!!" Dai Xu was the first to see her and was immediately overjoyed. "Where have you been? Why did you come just now? I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
