ctly called for the steward and instructed him to follow up on this matter, emphasizing the importance of obtaining guardianship as soon as possible. This way, Lian Yi could start enhancing his physiq...Yes, Miss!

Both of them stopped in their tracks when they saw Miss Ripple behind them, but their eyes still stared at the campsite across from them.

At this time, the guards on this side of the ripples came out after hearing the noise, including Wen Lu and her daughter. The screams from across the face were truly too tragic.

Only countless white snakes emerged from the waterfall and swarmed into the opposite campsite. They bit anyone they saw, some even slithered through people's nostrils and mouths, drilling into their bodies. These men immediately collapsed and started wailing in agony.

The one-eyed bandit wasn't asleep because he was planning to bring people here to the waterfall to do bad things. He was holding his knife, waving it left and right, cutting down the snakes that were charging at him.

But the number of white snakes was too large. Sensing that something was wrong, he immediately turned and dashed into the bamboo grove, running with all his might without even caring about the other鏢師 at the鏢局.

The living鏢師, seeing that the鏢 head had run away, also gave up guarding his cargo and followed the one-eyed man in escape. Behind them were white snakes pursuing relentlessly, a sight that sent shivers down one's spine.

Seeing all this, the Wu family guards all held their swords and daggers with vigilance, afraid that these white snakes would turn around and attack them again.

Liang Chen was soothing Xiao Hui in his arms. He finally understood why Xiao Hui had started to warn him when they arrived. It turned out that Xiao Hui's natural enemy was here.

When all the people on the opposite bank had been exhausted, the snakes returned to the water.

"Ma'am, why didn't they attack us"

Liang Chen whispered.

The two groups were separated only by a waterfall. There was no reason to attack those鏢師 but not them.

"Little Grey warns you, I've set up a formation around the campsite."

The ripples said softly.

"Miss, what shall we do now"

"Pack your things, we're leaving immediately. It's only one hour until dawn. We'll go to the next city and report this to them so they can warn people about what's coming."

"Yes!"

Everyone agreed.

Even if the young lady didn't command them, they wouldn't want to stay here. After seeing those countless white snakes like passing fish, they felt a shiver down their spines. Although the young lady's formation protected them, they still felt that leaving was safer.

In less than half an hour, everyone had packed up. The group immediately set off under the moonlight. Wen Lu stayed behind to erase all traces of their campsite.

After the ripples made their final farewell and withdrew their spiritual energy, they cleaned up after themselves before heading straight for the next city.

On this journey, the group didn't stop at all and finally reached Huafeng City by midday that day.

After paying the entrance fee, Liang Chen immediately stepped forward and asked the guard at the gate:

"Soldier, our party came from Shuangqi Town to Huafeng City. We encountered a murder on the way. Where should we report it"

"Murder Where How many people"

The guard was still very responsible and immediately asked.

"At a waterfall bamboo grove, four hours' journey from Huafeng City, we were exhausted and decided to camp there for the night. We planned to continue our journey the next morning. But when we arrived, we found corpses scattered all over the place near the bamboo grove, along with several carts piled high with boxes. It looked like a convoy of guards."

Then I reported it back to my master. My master was frightened out of his wits and feared there might be more bandits around, so he made us leave in the middle of the night. We finally reached here and only then did our hearts settle. That's why I've come to report this to the authorities.

Chu Liangchen was very quick-witted, immediately explaining the whole situation clearly.

The soldiers, seeing this squad of less than twenty men, understood why they had traveled all night. So, they sent a young soldier to escort Liang Chen to the government office to report the incident.

They then stayed at a small inn to rest and await news from Liang Chen.

Minmin finished washing up and changed her clothes before coming to replace Luo Ying and Luo Huai. She asked them specially:

"Miss, why report to the officials"

"That鏢頭 (protector) has seen you and your daughter. If he falsely accuses us of intercepting their shipment, what will we do"

But we've all been gone for so long, would he dare to go back

“If that head鏢 survived, he definitely wouldn't dare go back at night. But during the day, he would definitely go back to clean up the mess. I told Liang Chen to tell those yamen that the incident happened before we camped out. They are rushing there now and will just meet the surviving鏢師.”

Ripples, however, are calculated by time.

"Minmin understood, Miss was still thoughtful."

Things unfolded much as the ripples had predicted. With the two gunners by his side, the one-eyed man evaded the White Snake's pursuit and sought refuge. He remained hidden until high noon, when the sun blazed at its zenith, before returning to camp.

Upon arrival, they discovered that all their escorting bodyguards were dead, mostly from poisoning. Their abdominal cavities had been nearly emptied. They dared not approach, but the goods they were transporting were still intact.

The one-eyed man became greedy. He conspired with his two lieutenants and decided to hide the goods, claiming they had encountered an ambush later on. They even had a scapegoat in mind: Wen's mother and daughter would take the blame.

The employer definitely won't hire the mother and daughter again, they are too much trouble. Besides, that employer glanced at them once, he is a young lady. As long as they go to stir up trouble a few more times, who knows what unexpected gains they might reap.

The one-eyed man's plan was supported by two of his subordinates, who immediately began to act. Before they could return the startled horse, a group of constables arrived.

One-Eye's plan had fallen apart, and he was cursing the meddling fool in his heart. Suddenly, a water bucket-thick white python dropped from the top of the waterfall. In everyone's unpreparedness, it swallowed One-Eye whole in one gulp.

"Ah!!!"

The two-eyed thugs, terrified, peed their pants and scrambled toward the yamen guards. The guards were so startled, their souls almost flew out of their bodies. They never expected that just by looking at a crime scene, they would be forced to witness the bloody spectacle of a giant python swallowing a person.

"Daredevil demon, take my sword!"

Wuyou leaped forward at this moment, wielding her peachwood sword and striking the white python's head. Unfortunately, it had little effect. The python shook its head, spitting out a crimson snake core, and with a flick of its tail, plunged into the waterfall. Then, with another lash of its tail, it sent Wuyou flying away.

Seeing that the master was no match for them, Feng Yu immediately shouted at the crowd:

"Hurry! My master can't hold on much longer!"

Then Feng Yu began rummaging through his backpack, and found a package of realgar powder wrapped in brown paper. Seizing the opportunity, he directly threw it to his master:

"Master, this is realgar powder!"

Wuyou had already flipped herself back up, gritting her teeth and enduring the pain to catch the yellow powder. She stuck the peach wood sword back onto her back, then with several leaps, she jumped to the top of the bamboo. Then, she recited incantations and scattered the entire package of yellow powder outwards.

The white python, covered in the wind-blown realgar powder, was very uncomfortable and twisted its body. Then it directly retreated into the waterfall, churning its body, as if using the force of the water to wash off the realgar powder from its body.

Wuyou immediately leaped down, pulling Fengyu along and ran as fast as they could, leaving Bai Mang's territory.

The next day, after the city gates of Huafeng City opened, Wuyou stood with Fengyu in front of the inn where Lianyi and they rented a room.ough the main gate"Sun Shanshan immediately pouted and said.Indeed, generally this wouldn't happen.Before Qian Siming could finish his words, he was interrupted by ripples.Now I know!When Lian Yi fini...
