MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields-Chapter 485 20% off
After lunch, the muddy and slippery ground had been dried by the sun, and Qin Yao and his party set off again.
The next post station was thirty miles away. In order to arrive before dark, the carriage ran at full speed, almost vomiting Jin Douban, who was still healthy.
Looking at Liu Ji who was holding a book in the car and reading quietly, his body rising and falling with the carriage, and Qin Yao who was motionless on the shaft of the carriage, Jin Dou wondered whether he was too weak and the carriage was too bumpy. the illusion.
He looked at the scorching sun outside the window. Who would have thought that in such weather, there would be heavy rain at night, or it would last for several days?
Jin Dou covered his mouth, resisting the turmoil in his stomach with all his heart, already worried about the next trip.
We set off after noon every day and had to catch up with the next stop before dark. This trip was indeed quite stressful.
Sleeping outdoors is even more dangerous.
So, bear with it, haven’t you endured it all the way from the capital to now, and it’s not more than two or three days.
Hurrying on the road during the day, Jin Dou had a lot of complaints in his heart.
But when he checked into the inn at night, he was extremely lucky that he had been so hot-headed that he hired Qin Yao as a guard at a high price of two hundred taels of silver.
The enemy behind the scenes is really extremely arrogant!
One person was sent the day before but failed to return.
Tonight, a team of five people actually came.
In the middle of the night, Jin Dou suddenly woke up from his heavy murderous intention and saw that the small guest room was crowded with people.
Under the lightning and thunder, five sharp knives danced tightly in front of the bed.
However, these killing moves were all blocked by one person.
Sensing that the person behind her had woken up, Qin Yao glanced back and was secretly annoyed. How could she frighten the customer? !
Turning his head, facing the five killers, he thought that since everyone was awake, there was no need to restrain his hands.
The murderous aura suddenly rose in his eyes. He turned away from his previous carelessness and pulled out the long sword wrapped in the scabbard. With the power of sweeping thousands of troops, he swung forward and harvested two lives.
The remaining three people were shocked when they noticed such a terrifying change. Just now, they thought that they were outnumbered and this woman could barely handle it. They never expected that they were teasing them and they didn't use their full strength at all.
At this moment, Qin Yao's domineering aura enveloped him, and the remaining three people were shocked and wanted to retreat.
It is not that they are afraid of death, but that the target person is much stronger than expected, and they must immediately bring this news out and inform the master.
Qin Yao could see the intention of the remaining three to retreat at a glance, and immediately struck with the long knife in his hand.
Because the strength of the two sides is so disparate, even if they are agile and dodgey, all their moves will be futile under the heavy blow of absolute power.
The blade of the blade was smashed, and the huge impact knocked all three people away!
Three muffled sounds were followed by the terrifying crisp sound of the neck bone being broken.
Qin Yao killed three people in a row, caught their bodies that were about to hit the ground, and gently placed them on the ground, ending this counterattack without any suspense.
"Five, twenty-five taels of silver, and if it reaches ten, I will give you a 20% discount."
Qin Yao took out a small abacus and punched out the price of burial. She handed it to Jin Dou's wide eyes and waited for his confirmation.
“Thank you for your hard work.” Jin Dou hesitated for a moment, then swallowed secretly and nodded reluctantly.
Qin Yao put away her abacus with satisfaction and smiled happily at him, "It's okay, it's not hard. You can continue to sleep and I will clean the house right now."
After finishing speaking, he bent down and took away the two men who were stabbed to death by the knife.
Hurry back in less than half a minute and drag out the three with broken necks.
Liu Ji, who was dug out of bed by Qin Yao in the middle of the night, yawned, came in with a bucket and a rag, quickly cleaned up the blood on the floor, exited silently, and closed the door thoughtfully.
At the end of the day, I also sprinkled a handful of spices that I got from my junior brother and was reluctant to use on weekdays to cover up the smell of blood so that my employer could sleep peacefully. Throughout the whole process, Jin Dou just sat on the bed, hugging the thin quilt, without even needing to get out of bed, and the trouble was solved.
Smelling the fragrance of lotus flowers in the air, Jin Dou let out a long breath, thinking that if he was driving during the day, the carriage would bump a little, and he would fall asleep happily.
The rain gradually subsided in the second half of the night, and the sky cleared up at dawn.
The sun rose and the slippery ground slowly dried out. At noon, the four of them set off on their way again.
Today's journey seemed to go smoothly, and we were very close to Kaiyang County. Qin Yao felt like she was on her own territory. Most of the passersby were familiar faces.
Even if they can’t call each other by name, they will nod and greet each other.
The carriage bumped all the way, and when they arrived at the inn, everyone had a simple dinner and then took a rest.
Unexpectedly, this rainy night was not disturbed, and I slept peacefully until dawn.
The rain has also become much lighter, and the ground has been completely dry after being exposed to the sun for a whole morning.
Qin Yao decided to leave early so that he could enter the city before the gate of Kaiyang County closed.
If everything goes well and the speed is faster, after sending Jin Dou to the county government office, they will still have time to leave the city and return to Liujiacun.
Therefore, as soon as the ground was dry, everyone set off immediately.
The blue sky and white clouds, the gentle breeze blowing on his face, and the fragrance of rice wafting from the fields are in the air. In addition, Jin Dou is getting better and better, and it is rare for Jin Dou to enjoy it for a moment.
Even with such peace, his mood was still uneasy. Although victory was just ahead, he always felt that something bad would happen during this last short journey.
Liu Ji replaced Qin Yao and came to the carriage shaft to drive the carriage with Song Yu. He was thinking about how much money he had earned from burying corpses in the past two days.
The evil woman agreed to give him half. She buried six people in the first two times, each with five taels of silver, and half of it was fifteen taels of silver.
Thinking about it like this, the sadness of losing five taels of silver in Fucheng Inn is completely gone!
It's a pity that the weather is calm today, so I'm afraid I won't be able to make more money.
When Liu Jizheng felt regretful, he suddenly felt a cloudy feeling on the top of his head.
Looking up, he saw that the carriage had left the unobstructed road and entered a quiet forest.
At this time of mid-afternoon, there were no visitors in front of them and no business travelers behind them. There was only their carriage driving alone in the woods.
Liu Ji was inexplicably excited. Isn't this the best time for assassination?
He glanced back at his employer, who was half asleep in the carriage, and then turned back to scan the surrounding woods. He didn't know if it was his imagination, but he seemed to hear some rustling noises.
In the carriage, Jin Dou, who was pretending to be asleep, suddenly opened his eyes and called out to Qin Yao, who was really taking a nap: "Qin Yao, wake up!"
She slowly opened her eyes.
By this time, the carriage had stopped.
Song Yu and Liu Jizheng looked suspiciously at a group of people running over on horseback from across the forest path.
They are not uniformly dressed and well-trained killers, but a group of young and strong men dressed in ordinary clothes and riding various variegated ponies.
The first one looked so familiar to Liu Ji that he didn’t dare to recognize it—it was Song Zhang.
Qin Yao looked at the person coming strangely, then looked back at Jin Dou who suddenly looked surprised in the carriage, frowned and asked: "The person you called?"
