In ancient times, I just wanted to be a salted fish

Since Chen Ruotong returned to Pingyang City, time has passed quickly and more than ten days have passed without her realizing it.

During these days, she seemed to be isolated from the outside world, staying in the manor all day. She liked to quietly watch the busy figures of the people, and the lively and vibrant atmosphere gave her a sense of satisfaction.

At this moment, she was looking forward to going to the capital together with Old Man Chen after completing the autumn harvest, so that she could reunite with Old Lady Chen and share the joy of family.

As the sun sets, the blood-red sunset dyes half the sky red. Chen Ruotong walks alone in the woods near Zhuangzi, enjoying the picturesque scenery in front of her.

The sunlight at dusk shines through the dense branches and leaves, and falls on the ground in patches, making the already bright and eye-catching leaves look even more bright and beautiful.

The forest was colorful, with layers of leaves that were red like fire, yellow like gold, or green like jade, interweaving and reflecting each other, like a colorful painting unfolding before her.

Surrounded by this scene, Chen Ruotong couldn't help but be intoxicated by it.

The autumn scenery of this grove was so beautiful that it was even more charming than the colorful flowers in spring. She was deeply shocked by the magic of nature, and a feeling of awe for life surged in her heart.

Chen Ruotong stood there quietly, gazing at the beautiful scenery ahead.

However, at this moment, a cold light suddenly rushed over from a distance, as fast as lightning.

Chen Ruotong had no time to react at all, she only felt a piercing pain in the back of her shoulder.

"Hiss..." She couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and instantly realized in her heart: someone wants to kill her!

At this moment, she no longer cared about whether her secret would be exposed and quickly entered the space.

As soon as she entered the space, Chen Ruotong went straight to the pharmacy.

She clenched her teeth. Hey, it doesn't hurt?

But she was afraid, so she held the arrow tightly with trembling hands and pulled it out suddenly.

Fortunately, she didn't feel any pain in the space, and when she saw no blood flowing from the wound, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

However, the shocking wound still made her worried, especially she was afraid that the bones were broken.

So she didn't dare to delay for even a second and hurriedly went to the pharmacy to look for some powder that could relieve pain and stop bleeding.

After rummaging through boxes and cabinets, he finally found Panax notoginseng powder and carefully applied it on the wound.

Then he took some gauze and bandaged himself. It was a job that required both hands to do with one hand, so it was really tiring. It took him a long time to finally bandage himself.

In this way, after leaving the space, at least there will not be a lot of bleeding.

"Damn it, that damn Liang Zhilan is just haunting me! No matter where I go, she will follow me like a ghost, and she must kill me." Chen Ruotong cursed while thinking about how to deal with the killer outside.

It turned out that the eight killers sent by Liang Zhilan were the ones who attacked her this time.

They followed Chen Ruotong all the way to the grove, and when she let her guard down, they shot her with a fatal arrow.

But who could have thought that just after the first arrow was shot, the target person would disappear without a trace!

This sudden change made all the killers present dumbfounded and shocked. For a moment, the eight people looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

One of the masked men flew to the place where Chen Ruotong disappeared, slashed with a long sword, and muttered, "Could it be that Chen Guchuan knows how to become invisible? How could he suddenly disappear?"

Another said, "Third brother, how is it possible? The so-called invisibility technique is just a random thing written in a storybook. He must have mastered Qinggong and escaped!"

Eight people were rummaging in the woods with swords in hand. Chen Ruotong was in the space, watching the excitement outside.

She really wanted to go out right now and take these eight people away, but she was afraid that after she went out, the pain on her body would be unbearable, the bleeding would not stop, and those killers would stab her a few more times, which would be terrible.

She could only wait silently in the space for the eight people to leave before she dared to leave the space to go to the clinic to treat her injuries.

It was the first time that I was so careless and got myself hurt. Even if I had space, I couldn't guarantee that I would be safe.

Alas! This space can only store a few things. It would be great if there was a spiritual spring or something. Drinking some spiritual spring water would heal the wound.

But then I thought again, it’s good enough to have a space to save my life, it’s already God’s blessing, why do I need a bicycle? Don’t be too greedy.

The last ray of light from the setting sun was swallowed by darkness, and the woods became dark. The eight people were about to leave after searching in vain, when a horse galloped over.

The man on horseback was Qiao Zien. Holding an embroidered spring sword in his hand, he jumped up from the horse's back and swept towards the eight people.

Chen Ruotong could see everything clearly in the space. Her little bodyguard arrived in time. He really appeared wherever he was needed.

Qiao Zien knew that Chen Ruotong had entered the space and was not in danger, so she started killing people in all directions.

These eight assassins were far inferior to Zhu Wu's group, so Qiao Zien defeated all eight of them in just a dozen rounds.

Qiao Zien straightened his clothes, wiped the blood off the Embroidered Spring Knife, put it into the space and said, "Gu Chuan, come out, everything is resolved!"

Chen Ruotong came out of the space with a flashlight, "Zi En came just in time, you are like a savior, always appearing in time when I need you.

You guessed that Liang Zhilan would send assassins to hunt me down! Today, I was a little careless. Hiss, it doesn’t seem to hurt anymore…”

Qiao Zien immediately stepped forward and asked nervously, "Is Gu Chuan injured? Let me see!"

"How can this be possible? Men and women shouldn't touch each other. Oh, no, men shouldn't touch each other!

I'll put these people into the space. Let's go to the cliff in the distance and throw them into the cliff to destroy the bodies. How about that?

I don't think Liang Zhilan would doubt that you killed her people."

"I guess she must suspect that it was the emperor who did it."

"Hahaha, it's not bad to ask the emperor to take the blame for us this time. He's taking my money and taking my blame. Ah, I feel much more balanced..."

"You are amazing. You never suffer any loss in anything you do..."

Chen Ruotong received the eight people into the space, and then rode a horse with Qiao Zien, quickly ran to the edge of the cliff, and threw all eight people into the cliff.

Although Qiao Zien was by her side, Chen Ruotong still felt uneasy. She would not kill anyone, but she had done a lot of things like causing trouble, so she would feel guilty...

Strangely enough, after Chen Ruotong came out of the space, she didn’t feel any pain in her wound, nor did she bleed. Could it be that the space has the function of healing?

Chen Ruotong was so excited as if she had discovered a new continent, but this space did not have such an effect on the people who had been taken in by it before. Perhaps it only had a healing effect on the owner!

Therefore, Chen Ruotong decided not to go to the clinic to treat her injuries, but to heal herself in the space.

When they returned to the village, Old Man Chen was looking for her everywhere. "Xiao Si, where have you been again? After all, this is not the city. It's not safe outside. You can't run around anymore..."

"Grandpa, look, Qiao Zien is here to take us back to the capital!"

"Qiao boy, come in quickly. You must have worked hard on the journey. I'll ask the kitchen to make you something delicious."

"Grandpa Chen, thank you for your concern!"

Chen Ruotong suddenly remembered the test results and asked, "I almost forgot to ask you, how did you do? Did you get first place?"

"Well, you guessed it right. You definitely got it right!"

When the Chen family heard that Qiao Zien had gotten first place in the exam in Beijing, they thought it was amazing and were very happy for him.

After dinner, Qiao Zien chatted with the Chen family for a while and then went to the guest room to rest.
