The noise was so loud that not only Xiaolan's family heard it, but also her neighbors.

The neighbors nearby were all people who knew how to protect themselves. Since the last time Xiaolan's family repelled a group of beggars who came to rob them, they knew that this family had some skills. After hearing that Xiaolan's family had killed the Hu cavalry and led a group of villagers to the capital safely, they admired this family even more.

In this turbulent era, they felt safe to have such a strong and combat-capable neighbor. When they heard the noise, they stayed indoors to avoid causing trouble for the family. They thought to themselves that it seemed that this family had once again repelled the robbers, and since they had no combat power, they would not go out to cause trouble.

As for Xiaolan's family, Zhang Qingfeng heard the noise first and came out to see what was going on, but was stopped by Xiaolan's eyes. He and Xiaolan had developed a tacit understanding when they dealt with Hu Bing last time, and he knew that this matter was not something he could interfere with.

So he left quietly and informed the rest of the family to avoid Xiaolan and the stranger.

It must be said that Xiaolan's family trusted her unconditionally. No matter what she did, no matter whether these things would bring disaster to the family, they were her strongest backing.

After the wound was treated, Shen Liu's followers found him through the marks he had secretly left behind.

These corpses were pierced through the neck by sharp arrows. When Shen Liu's followers saw the wounds of the enemies, their eyes widened. Several people walked with their hands and feet trembling, unable to believe that this was shot by a little girl.

From this moment on, these people have had a filter for Xiao Lan. They admire and worship her in their hearts. However, most of them are afraid of her at the moment because they dare not even look at Xiao Lan.

"General, this family is not simple. A little girl has such high archery skills. I have only seen such archery skills in her. Every arrow pierced the throat." The leader of the entourage came to Shen Liu and whispered.

Shen Liu thought, this family is indeed not simple. The little girl made such a big noise, he didn't believe that the family didn't hear it. But they pretended to be deaf and dumb, didn't even show their faces, and let the little girl deal with it alone, which is worth considering. Besides, Xiao Lan killed people without mercy, as for his identity, I'm afraid she has seen through it, but she pretended not to know and never asked about his identity.

"I'm just a country girl. Because the Lakers came, I fled to the capital to avoid the limelight. Although I don't know much, I know what to say and what not to say. Don't worry, I promise to forget about what happened today and won't mention it to anyone." Xiao Lan said.

Shen Liu looked at Xiao Lan with an inquiring eye. He was being chased and had run out of energy, but the killer had been following him. If he ran away, he would only die at the killer's hands. At that time, he didn't know what was going on in his mind, and suddenly remembered the news spread among the refugees that Xiao Lan's family shot and killed the Hu people, so they could reach the city safely.

He knew Xiaolan's family because he had witnessed them fighting off beggars. So he used up his last bit of strength and knocked on her door.

But the little girl climbed up the escalator and didn't want to pay attention to him when she saw him. When their eyes met, he clearly felt that she was stunned for a while, probably because she remembered his identity, so she had no choice but to open the door to save her.

Even so, he still hadn't let his mind go. If the little girl made him feel even the slightest bit uneasy, he would kill her without hesitation. But she calmly pulled out the arrow for him and treated his wounds.

"I don't want to get into trouble." Xiao Lan looked at the man who was staring at her, and she looked straight into his eyes and said firmly.

Shen Liu looked at Xiao Lan. His pupils were dark and his expression was calm. This was definitely not the look an ordinary child should have.

"How old are you?" Shen Liu asked.

"Twelve." Xiao Lan replied.

"If even a little bit of the secret of your trip is leaked out, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles." The leader of the entourage lowered his voice and said to Shen Liu, "Sir, do you want to deal with the aftermath?"

What he meant by the aftermath was naturally not dealing with the bodies outside. He had already ordered people to move the bodies outside away and dispose of them. He was asking about Xiaolan's family.

Xiao Lan watched the two of them talking in low voices, not knowing what they were talking about. She only saw Shen Liu's face was mysterious, and his eyes were looking straight at her.

"We are about to leave. I forgot to ask you just now. What is your name?" Shen Liu asked.

"Oh, I..." Xiao Lan originally wanted to make up a fake name to fool him, but then she changed her mind and felt that it was unnecessary. This man was the general of the city. As long as her family lived here, they couldn't escape. If she made up a fake name now, he would probably know she was lying as soon as she walked out of her house.

"I'm Xiaolan. Shenglan."

Shen Liu whispered, "Sheng Lan." Then he nodded to Xiao Lan and said, "Let's go."

After the man and his group walked out of Xiaolan's house, Xiaolan closed the door heavily. She finally got rid of the giant Buddha and breathed a sigh of relief.

She never thought that she had just walked through the gates of hell, because the dead did not deserve to have names, and those followers had murderous intentions. But since Shen Liu asked her name, it meant that she was not destined to die.

"Xiao Lan, what happened just now?" Zhang Qingfeng heard the door closing and hurried out to ask Xiao Lan.

Xiao Lan made a gesture to him to shut up, and he immediately understood that he should not ask about this matter. He should not listen to what he should not listen to, and should not ask what he should not ask, otherwise he would not know how he died in the end.

Xiao Lan was determined not to tell anyone about what had happened, because she didn't want to get into trouble. She just wanted to forget the experience as soon as possible.

The family tacitly agreed not to ask Xiaolan any more questions. However, in the evening, Zhang brought a bowl of calming soup for Xiaolan to drink and let her have a good rest.
