Xiao Muyu took a step back and shook her head again and again: "It's better not to disturb Her Highness Princess's sleep. I don't sleep well, so I'll just sleep in this small cubicle."

The princess didn't force it either: "I see you seem very scared."

Xiao Muyu unconsciously touched the back of her neck: "Is there any?"

The princess nodded.

Xiao Muyu: "..." Is it so obvious?

She was a little uneasy, but she was worried that the group of unsightly gangsters downstairs would come up to make trouble and annoy the princess. The princess is not a soft-hearted person.

After all, this is not Xuefu country, the princess is alone and weak, if something happens, not to mention the troubles, I am afraid that Xiao Muyu will be blamed again after returning.

Who told her to be a drag.

Maybe there will be no chance to come out in the future.

But she hasn't reached the point of fear yet, she is not a child who can be easily frightened and howl.

The sound of smashing and smashing downstairs intensified, and it seemed to be getting closer and closer, as if someone had run upstairs.

But at a certain moment, all sounds stopped abruptly.

The princess put the book aside, her expression was as usual, as if she had predicted the development of the plot long ago, seeing Xiao Muyu was stunned, she explained: "The store stuffed them with money and let them go."

There was a lot of movement outside, and the distance wasn't too far. Even if you didn't hear it clearly, you could guess from the shopkeeper's sophisticated reminder and usual attitude that they would handle it properly.

Bandits and robbers make trouble for nothing more than money. If they just want to make trouble and cause panic, they will not choose at night.

But having said that, Xiyan Kingdom is indeed too chaotic now.

The princess frowned slightly. This was a bit worse than she had imagined. It seemed that this place could not be left any longer.

"You rest early." The princess withdrew her thoughts and made a decision, "We will go up the mountain tomorrow morning."

In the dark deep sea, I can't breathe, I can't see, and the sea water is bitingly cold.

The water plants that spread out from nowhere tightly wrapped around her calves and reached her entire body, dragging her to a deeper level.

wow-

A delicate dagger fell into the water, cut through the water wall, and cut off the entangled aquatic plants.

She finally opened her eyes and subconsciously struggled to swim to the surface of the sea.

A little light could be seen faintly in the distance, but the dagger stayed in front of her, with a sapphire on the hilt shining faintly.

After a moment of silence, traces of blood scattered from the dagger, like silk blown away by the wind...

The smell of blood became stronger and stronger.

Almost can't breathe.

"call--"

Xiao Muyu woke up suddenly, and only after she escaped from the dream did she realize that she forgot to breathe.

The air began to circulate again.

Xiao Muyu panted and sat stiffly on the bed, when she reached out to touch her forehead, she was covered in cold sweat.

"What's wrong?" came the princess's usual cold voice, "Did you have a nightmare?"

Xiao Muyu was half a beat behind before raising her head, and turned to the source of the sound, the princess was sitting at the table looking at her.

Probably just got up, the princess was only wearing a coat, the snow-white skin at the neckline was clearly visible, and the shape of the collarbone was very beautiful.

But for some reason, Xiao Muyu seemed to see a red shadow.

The princess brushed her loose long hair, and realized that Xiao Muyu's gaze stayed for too long, she couldn't help feeling a little strange.

"Are you uncomfortable?"

"Snapped--"

Xiao Muyu slapped her face hard with her palm, leaving a red mark on her cheeks.

But this also made her wake up immediately. She shook her head, and the voice under her palm was muffled.

"No. Maybe I was just scared by what happened last night." Xiao Muyu casually found a reason to prevaricate.

She preferred it to be the reason.

The details of the dream were blurred, but she would never forget that deep sea until she died.

That was the place where she was buried in her previous life.

The depression of being unable to stop the fall and the pain of not being able to breathe are still vivid in her mind. She does not regret losing her life to save others, but that does not mean that she is not afraid of death itself.

Obviously it was a long time ago, why did I suddenly dream of the scene at that time?

Xiao Muyu instinctively avoided this matter, she forced herself to stop thinking.

After two more slaps on the face, she looked back to normal.

Except for the two irregular red marks on the cheeks, which looked a little funny.

Xiao Muyu glanced at the position of the window, and found that there was light coming out of the gap, which was a bit dark and not as bright as the day, so he guessed that it might be just early morning and the sun had not yet fully risen.

The princess hadn't even washed and dressed yet.

"Shall we set off later?" Xiao Muyu asked.

The princess didn't answer, but walked quickly to Xiao Muyu, scanned inside and out for a long time, and finally her eyes stayed on the pillow.

She picked up the pillow and sniffed it, frowning slightly.

"Is there something wrong with the pillow?" Xiao Muyu was a little surprised.

She didn't seem to feel anything unusual when she was sleeping, and there was only a faint scent of grass and woods on the pillow. If she didn't pay special attention to it, she wouldn't notice it at all.

"It smells like sleeping spices, the same as mine." The princess put the pillow back, "But it shouldn't make people have such a big reaction."

"Maybe I was really just scared." Xiao Muyu muttered.

Apparently the princess was not affected, and it sounded like there was no problem, so she didn't want to delve into this issue any further.

"Are you that timid?" The princess glanced at her.

"Yes." Xiao Muyu tried his best to put on a sincere expression.

"..." The princess put the pillow back, and helped her brush the hair that was sticking to the side of her face behind her ears, "Get up and wash up first, and we will leave after dawn."

Before going downstairs, the princess stopped Xiao Muyu, took out a dagger from her sleeve and handed it to her.

The dagger is not big, with exaggerated decorations on the handle and scabbard, it looks more like an exquisite decoration, but it is unexpectedly light in the hand.

However, the blade was very sharp, Xiao Muyu just pulled out a little, and the falling hair broke into two pieces facing the blade.

Thinking about it, it should be some kind of treasure that cuts iron like mud.

"Keep self-defense." The princess whispered.

She didn't ask Xiao Muyu if she would use it, as if it was a matter of course.

Xiao Muyu stared blankly at the blade for a moment, then suddenly recalled the knife in the dream.

The knife in the dream also had a gorgeous appearance, even more exaggerated than the one in her hand. It was said to be a treasure left over from ancient times.

...Wait, why does she know what baby it is?

No, it should be said, when did she see that knife?

Why can't she remember at all?

The princess opened the door and said, "Let's go."

Xiao Muyu was dragged downstairs, the dagger in his hand had not had time to retract the scabbard, he staggered, almost cutting his hand.

At that moment, as if instinctively, she turned the dagger, and when she realized it, she had already returned the blade to the scabbard, and even hid the dagger close to her body.

The downstairs was still deserted, most of the guests hadn't woken up yet, and it wasn't time for meals, the lobby was empty, only the shopkeeper was dozing off next to the abacus.

Broken chair legs can still be seen in the corner, and there are many scratches on the pillars, but everything else looks normal. If you don’t remember what happened last night, no one will notice those details, let alone guess It has been visited by bandits and robbers.

This is too skilled.

Xiao Muyu sighed in her heart, and was about to look away, but she suddenly met a dodging gaze from the corner of her eye.

Someone was watching her from behind a pillar.

"Xiao Linzi, why are you hiding and stealing? Hurry up and help the guests with their luggage!" The shopkeeper slapped the abacus vigorously, and shouted behind the pillar, "Are you hiding there again and stealing food!"

Talking about the shopkeeper, he apologized to the princess with a smile: "Excuse me, this is my nephew. You just came here and don't know the rules. Please forgive me. And what happened last night surprised you. I hope Haihan..."

Just as he was talking, a seventeen-eighteen-year-old boy hurried out from behind wiping his hands, his mouth still glistening with oil.

I don't think my hands are clean.

"No, we didn't bring much."

The princess took a step back to avoid it, and after paying the bill, she dragged Xiao Muyu to leave.

The young man hurriedly followed: "Hey, where are you going, sir, this place is dangerous, let me give you a ride."

However, just stepping out of the inn door, he looked in the direction where the guests were leaving, but there was no sign of them.

Standing there and looking around for a moment, he returned to the inn dejectedly.

The shopkeeper raised his eyelids and waved his hands impatiently: "Why are you arguing, why don't you go to the back kitchen to help."

"I haven't paid the reward yet." The young man curled his lips, squeezed his purse, and couldn't help muttering, "Those two people look rich at first glance, why are they so stingy?"

In another place, Xiao Muyu was dragged by the princess and turned into an alley, still a little dazed.

"Is there any problem with that person?" Xiao Muyu asked.

"That kid has a wicked mind." The princess said, "I heard him chatting with those gangsters in the backyard in the middle of the night, saying that he wanted to join the gang."

"and then?"

"The gangster thought he was weak, so he didn't agree. But..."

"But what?"

"The kid gave them something."

Selling out customers for money seemed to be something that the young man couldn't do.

Both of them subconsciously took some precautions.

The mountain the princess said was outside the city, and the west gate was the way to enter, and the mountain was just outside the east gate.

There was some distance between the inn and the east gate, but fortunately, the two of them were not in a hurry, and they sat at the wonton stand and had breakfast on the way.

This made Xiao Muyu a little surprised, she thought that the princess would be more delicate and unwilling to eat the food from these small stalls.

"I'm not that picky." The princess didn't show any dissatisfaction, as if the roadside stalls tasted no worse than the delicacies in the palace.

Does not look like.

Xiao Muyu swallowed those words back.

Although it is said that she created the character, there are also things about the other person that she doesn't know about.Xiao Muyu couldn't help thinking.

After breakfast, when they continued to walk towards the east gate, the two gradually felt as if someone was watching them from behind.

Pretty poor stalking skills.

Xiao Muyu and the princess discovered the gaze hidden in the dark almost at the same time.

Are those bandits?

Sure enough, not long after leaving the city gate, a group of big men in unorthodox clothes carrying big knives, blindfolds and scars rushed out and surrounded the two of them.

A few pedestrians nearby fled in panic.

There were also a few who had no time to run far, their legs went limp, and they sat on the spot, unable to move.

But the big men didn't care about the other passers-by, and they clearly targeted the two of them, as if they knew that they were rich from the beginning.

"The two girls should be kind-hearted people. Our brothers have been living a difficult life recently, and I hope the girls will show kindness and help us..."

The leader, the one-eyed dragon, rubbed his hands lazily, but his tone didn't mean to beg for alms at all.

On the contrary, the brother next to him had better eyesight. After seeing the faces of the two girls clearly, he couldn't help but move his eyes.

"I think these two girls are pretty good-looking, brother, why not take them back together to be Mrs. Yazhai, and let the brothers relieve their greed by the way—"

The gangsters all put on a face ready to move.

Xiao Muyu covered her face with her hands, hid behind the princess as if she was afraid, and couldn't help but asked in a low voice: "Is it not good to see blood at the gate of the city?"

She wanted to ask if someone was beaten to death here, would she be captured by the guards at the gate of the city.

"Beyond the city gate is not under the control of the guards. The mountain in front is the dividing line with the neighboring country. The king of the country has not been able to spare any manpower recently, so he naturally doesn't care about things outside the country's borders."

Xiao Muyu breathed a sigh of relief, but turned around to look at the old grandpa and grandma who were walking tremblingly not far away with frightened faces, and could not help persuading: "It's fine if you beat the flowers half to death. .”

Accidentally, the voice was a little louder and was heard by the person on the other side.

The headed one-eyed dragon frowned, with a bit of anger, his face looked a bit hideous: "You little bitch, what are you talking about, how dare you look down on us."

The people next to him also responded: "That's right, I think it's the young lady who doesn't know the rules when she goes out, so I should let the eldest brother teach me well."

There were also those who pretended to persuade Xiao Muyu and the princess with good intentions: "You two delicate girls, why bother to show off your abilities? Why don't you admit your mistake to our eldest brother, hand over the money, and say a few nice words, maybe it can make you happy .”

Xiao Muyu leaned against the princess's ear and whispered, "Aren't they very powerful?"

The princess took out another dagger from nowhere, it was much longer and narrower than the one given to Xiao Muyu, she wiped the blade and said casually: "It's not as good as a dog in my palace."

Xiao Muyu: "..." It seems to be very weak.

No, it should be said that the dogs in the palace are surprisingly strong.

But after all, it was raised in the palace full of aura.

Xiao Muyu felt relieved, but at the same time she had a new question: "Then where did they get the courage to block you?"

"Probably they regard us as people from the Xiyan Kingdom. Women in the Xiyan Kingdom are forbidden to practice." The princess finished wiping the knife, her tone was still calm, "But men are not much stronger - you wait for me next to me .”

The volume of these words was not controlled at all, and everyone around could hear them clearly.

Cyclops rushed towards them angrily waving a big knife: "You two stinky girls, now I'll show you how powerful I am!"

Xiao Muyu's eyes froze, and he took a step back slightly, subconsciously putting on a defensive posture.

However, before she finished retreating, the princess hugged her waist and forced her to fall backwards.

The princess hugged Xiao Muyu to avoid the oncoming attack, and kicked the people next to her, bumping into each other, and the two flew out instantly, clearing an empty path.

She pushed Xiao Muyu out of the encirclement, and then stood in front of her.

Xiao Muyu was forced to turn around several times in a row, and when she regained her senses, she had retreated outside the circle, and as soon as she turned her head, she met the trembling old woman beside her who hadn't run far.

The old woman looked at her, then at the princess who kicked two strong men so hard that they couldn't get up, and was stunned for a long time.

Xiao Muyu subconsciously showed her a comforting smile.

The old woman trembled even more.

Xiao Muyu: "..." Is she that scary?

The old woman leaned on her crutches and tried to speed up her pace, but she only sped up the frequency a little, and the speed was still crawling like a snail.

After taking a few steps, she tripped over herself and was about to fall.

Xiao Muyu subconsciously reached out to help.

"Grandma, I won't rob you, I'll take you to the city gate later—"

Before the words fell, Xiao Muyu's deliberately gentle smile froze.

It's just a few bandits, and the princess can easily solve it by herself.

If it wasn't too close to the city gate, the princess didn't want to use her spiritual power indiscriminately to attract attention and trouble, and it would only take a blink of an eye to solve these bandits who had just started practicing.

Of course, there was also some reason why she was in a bad mood and wanted to beat someone up.

After only a moment of practice, the last bandit rolled his eyes and fell to the ground.

Before the princess could close the knife, she turned her head and saw Xiao Muyu standing stiffly not far away, with a glaring bloodstain on her neck.

The fifth prince, covered in mud, appeared behind Xiao Muyu, looking at his head in a panic, not to mention the black and half-dried mud on his face, his hair was like a bird's nest, and there were two fallen leaves on the top, like It was rolling all night in the mire.

But his expression at the moment was very complacent, as if he had grasped some key point or handle, and smiled flamboyantly at the princess.

The dagger in his hand pressed tightly against Xiao Muyu's neck, and the tip of the knife had pierced a little bit of skin.

The bright red blood slid down the white neck, and the contrast was shockingly sharp.

The previous old woman had already fainted from fright, and was thrown aside casually by the Fifth Prince.

The princess clarified the situation in an instant, and her face sank immediately.

It was as if someone suddenly opened the door of the ice cellar, and the surrounding temperature dropped rapidly in an instant.

The bandit who fell out first was still somewhat conscious, and just about to get up, he saw a layer of frost on the grass leaves and dead branches in front of him.

He accidentally touched it with his fingers, and the blade of grass was like broken glass, and it turned into shards in an instant.

In the blink of an eye, Suimo also disappeared, as if disappeared out of thin air.

The bandit's breath stopped, his head fell downwards, and he passed out again.

frightened.
