I survived as a female assassin

Xin Youran:!!!

No way? So fast!

Now how to do?

Should she just rush out? She only has a few Qinggong skills, so she should be able to escape.

It's strange to say, she has been here for some time, but she only has a few fragments of the original owner's memories, plus this lightness skill.

The original owner was a top female assassin! She must have had many abilities, but how come she couldn't remember them at all...

Like some peerless magic skills or some sword techniques, she doesn't know anything at all...

Now is not the time to think about this. Let’s rush out first. Saving our lives is the most important thing.

Just as she rushed to the door and was about to open it, the door opened from the outside and she was knocked to the ground.

Hiss, her nose!

Fortunately it is original.

The moment she saw Mu Yuan, she was so scared that she almost rolled and crawled backwards.

"You, you, are you..."

It's over. She was so scared that her legs were weak. How could she have the strength to use Qinggong?

Wouldn’t she be the shortest-lived time traveler in history?

"Madam, please get up quickly, what's wrong with you?"

Then a big hand stretched out in front of her.

This shouldn't be an illusion, right?

"Miss?"

"Hey, my dear, haha, you scared me when you opened the door suddenly."

"I just came to bring you some new clothes from the tailor's shop."

Xin Youran explained randomly, but the big hand showed no intention of retracting. Would it hurt her if she didn't put her hand on it?

So he put one hand in Mu Yuan's hand without hesitation.

Then he exerted force and Xin Youran's whole body was pulled up.

"Thank you for your hard work, my lady. I'll go try it on right away."

Xin Youran:!!

Could it be that this guy got possessed by some spirit while out?

"Hey, good."

Xin Youran gave an awkward smile, pulled her hand out of Mu Yuan's, and ran out as if escaping.

I just ran out and wanted to slow down, but when I looked up, I found that my master and mistress were right outside the door!

The two seemed to be discussing something and didn't seem to be looking in their direction.

She didn't disturb the two of them, but ran to her room with a somewhat messy step and closed the door.

Only then did she feel completely relaxed.

Judging from Mu Yuan’s reaction when he saw her just now, not only did he not take her life, he even called her "wife". It means that he has not recovered his memory.

Maybe I was overthinking it.

Scare yourself.

No, she had to lie down and calm down. It was really a false alarm.

The gauze on Mu Yuan's head was removed by Doctor Liu early in the morning.

"The wound has healed, but you still have to be careful. Don't bathe for the next two days."

Uncle Liu packed up his medicine box and continued, "My wife will make braised pork rice today. You should eat more to replenish your body."

"Thank you."

Mu Yuan bowed and thanked Doctor Liu, then asked, "Can I borrow your bamboo hat? I want to go out and buy something for my wife."

"Of course, please follow me."

When Mr. Liu heard this, he enthusiastically gave Mu Yuan a bamboo hat and asked, "Do you need me to take you there?"

"No, thank you."

Mu Yuan bowed again, picked up his hat and went out.

More than ten days had passed since he fell off the cliff, and he was not sure whether the person who harmed him had given up.

It's better to be careful.

He put on a borrowed hat and walked down the mountain.

Anyone who wants to meet General Cui will go for a walk under the cliff from today on.

First, to find out who harmed him, and second, to try his luck and hope to meet Cui Zhanting.

According to the location where the cliff fell, Mu Yuan found the approximate location where he should have been if he fell down the mountain that day.

This is a forest that looks wild and very dense, making it an ideal hiding place.

Mu Yuan pretended to be a villager who came here to pick up branches. He looked for dead branches while observing his surroundings.

There are really few people passing by here. He has picked up a small bundle of dead branches, but didn't see a single person. Maybe he was overthinking it?

Or was it that the location he predicted was wrong?

Just as he was about to leave with the bundle of firewood, he unexpectedly discovered a fellow traveler. The man was dressed almost the same as himself, and his face could not be seen clearly. However, he was much more professional than himself. In addition to wearing a straw hat, he also carried a backpack and a machete.

He seemed to have just arrived, but his figure was somewhat similar.

But the man's movements in picking up firewood were very skillful, so he should not be someone he knew.

He didn't care much about it. He bundled up the firewood and planned to go back today.

Unexpectedly, the villager who was collecting firewood came to his vicinity and picked up firewood. His heart trembled, and he silently took out the short knife of Blood Shadow from his arms. It had been with him since he killed the wild boar.

If the enemy really intends to approach, we must act before him!

As he expected, the man came a little closer to him. Mu Yuan took out a dagger and quickly stabbed the man in the vitals.

The man couldn't dodge and immediately said, "Your Highness, it's me!"

Mu Yuan already recognized the voice, it was Cui Zhanting!

"General Cui, you..."

"Shh! This is not the place to talk."

Cui Zhanting then changed his tone and said with a smile, "Fellow countryman, you are here to collect firewood too!"

"Would you like to join me? I know there's more firewood somewhere than here. You've been collecting for a long time and only collected this little. How much can you sell it for?"

Mu Yuan understood and, imitating Cui Zhanting, lowered his voice and replied, "Really?"

"Don't scare me, fellow villager."

"It's not that difficult. It's right in front of you. You'll know when you get there."

After saying that, he led the way. Mu Yuan followed his pace with doubt.

The two of them passed through the woods, and Mu Yuan discovered a narrow cave with a stream flowing down, forming a small stream that flowed to another place.

With the mountain as a cover and the sound of the stream, Cui Zhanting finally said excitedly, "I knew your family was still alive!"

"Don't worry, everything has been carried out according to your previous plan."

"The emperor is still suppressing the news of your death, but everyone in the palace already knows that you have passed away."

Mu Yuan listened and nodded, "How did the Queen react?"

"The Queen has not left Yongning Palace. During this time, she called the imperial physician once and summoned the Emperor's uncle once."

Haha, just as he expected, it seems the queen is also getting anxious.

"Where are my royal brothers?"

"Prince Zhao, Prince Jin, and Prince Ning all met with His Majesty as soon as they heard the news and urged him to prepare your funeral as soon as possible. Prince Jing and Prince Hui also requested that His Majesty send someone to find the culprit who killed you and avenge you."

"The other princes are all continuing as usual, as if they are unaware of your death."

Mu Yuan nodded after hearing this. It seems that the real big fish is still hidden deep.

Who on earth had issued the bounty order in [Falling Rain]? It should have specifically called for Blood Shadow to assassinate him.

Does Xueying know this person?
