Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Zhou Ying had already noticed the attack, and Xiaxiang had rushed over, wanting to block the attack for her.
She knew Xiaxiang’s goal, so how could she let her get what she wanted? Otherwise, she would be at a loss if Xiaxiang used this life-saving grace to threaten her.
Therefore, Zhou Ying deliberately turned to block Xiaxiang’s way and quickly pressed down on the pepper spray.
It was not difficult for the man in black to guess from his companion’s reaction that this thing hurt his eyes. He immediately closed his eyes and dodged to the side.
Zhou Ying took advantage of the moment he closed his eyes and shot an arrow; another man-in-black was dead.
Zhou Ying saw this and said to Xiaxiang, “Take his sword to protect yourself.”
“Oh.” Xiaxiang immediately picked up the knife and formed a three-person formation with Zhou Ying and Shizhu.
When the attackers saw this, they did not dare to approach one by one. Instead, two of them surrounded them from the left and right.
However, before they could do anything, someone shouted, “Retreat!”
After the men in black heard this, they immediately turned around and retreated. But how could Zhou Ying and Gu Chengrui be willing to accept this? The two shot out their crossbows simultaneously, instantly killing two more people.
When the leader saw this, he turned his head and looked at the couple deeply before running away quickly.
Xiaxiang still wanted to chase after him, but Zhou Ying stopped her. “Don’t chase a cornered enemy. Let’s search these dead men to see if they have anything to prove their identity.”
“Don’t let go of any money on them, and retrieve the arrows too.”
Xiaxiang was stunned. Was robbing the dead really a good idea?
Shizhu didn’t think much about it and immediately followed Zhou Ying’s orders.
Zhou Ying glanced at the battlefield and found that six men in black had died, and Lin Yitian’s injuries seemed a little serious. Gu Chengrui was in the midst of helping him stop the bleeding.
Zhou Ying immediately ran over. At the same time, she took out a bag of medicine that Gu Chengrui had made and handed it to him. She asked, “How’s Lin Yitian’s injury? Can he make it to the capital?”
“With these herbs, there won’t be any problems. We have to leave quickly.” Gu Chengrui got busy after taking the medicine.
“Good to hear.” Zhou Ying turned around and went to their two carriages.
However, only the carriage that Shizhu and the others were in was intact.
At this time, Shizhu and Xiaxiang had also finished searching the dead bodies. The two of them looked at each other, and Xiaxiang handed a bag of money to Shizhu.
Finally, Shizhu said, “Mistress, we didn’t find anything to prove their identity.
“But we did discover that each of them had a leaf-shaped tattoo on their backs.”
“It’s the leaves of a ginkgo tree,” Xiaxiang added.
“Also, we collected a total of 100 taels of silver.” After Shizhu finished her report, she handed the money to Zhou Ying.
“I only want the arrows; you two can split the money.” Zhou Ying replied as she took the six arrows. “Shizhu, I want you to drive the carriage and send us back to the capital.”
“But Mistress…”
“No buts. Lin Yitian’s injuries are urgent.”
“Alright then.” Although Shizhu was a little worried, she still followed orders.
They all rushed to the capital after that.
As for the corpses on the ground, they did not have the energy to deal with them. It was up to their master’s conscience whether they were left in the wild or not.
Fortunately, the group returned to the capital smoothly.
After returning to their residence, Gu Chengrui directly helped Lin Yitian in. He went back to the main courtyard to get his first aid kit and personally bandaged Lin Yitian’s wound.
Because the wound on his abdomen was too deep, Lin Yitian even had to get stitched up..
