In her view, Feng Junyi committed so many murders because of Feng Lao's indulgence and...Liang Chen felt that the little mouse was very spiritual, and since he had found food for it, he let Xiao Hui go.

After enduring the most difficult period, Miss Ripples arrived at the manor and dealt with the main culprit. She distributed grain, cloth, and silver to them, which were all stolen from them by the head of the estate and rightfully belonged to them.

Because Liang Chen bravely exposed Zhuang Tou as the primary culprit, he was valued by the young mistress. He learned many things from her and began practicing martial arts and studying. Afterward, he would also go hunting in the mountains, catching wild chickens and rabbits to bring back home for his mother to improve her health.

By chance, he caught a snake. After cutting open the snake's belly, he accidentally saved the little grey who had been swallowed. From then on, little grey followed Liang Chen around.

Every time Liang Chen went into the mountains to hunt, Xiao Hui could help him find rabbit burrows and wild bird eggs in advance. Liang Chen felt that he had a tacit understanding with Xiao Hui, so he kept it by his side.

Because animals are very sensitive and have an innate ability to sense danger, Liang Chen took Xiao Hui with him when he left with the young lady.

At this time, Xiaohui's behavior was a warning, indicating that the surroundings were unsafe. Zhu Liangchen then took Xiaohui to see Miss Lianyi.

Ripple listened to Liang Chen's words, glanced at Xiao Hui, and nodded the other's little head. She was a little surprised that there was actually a trace of the soul-eating rat's bloodline on this little mouse. Although it was very diluted, this single strand of bloodline made it more clever than ordinary mice and lived longer.

"I got it! Tell everyone to be careful and on guard. Within a few miles, this is the only place suitable for overnighting. We'll hold out for one night, and we'll leave as soon as dawn breaks tomorrow."

Yes, Miss!

Liang Chen then tucked Xiao Hui back into his arms and went to prepare for camping.

The ripples dispersed, radiating Shensi's awareness outward. It scanned the surrounding area but found nothing unusual, so it let down the curtain and continued reading its own book.

As the sun began to set, another group of people arrived on the other side of the waterfall. They seemed to have the same idea as Ripples and her companions, planning to spend the night here and continue their journey at dawn.

Only Wenlu and Minmin's faces changed when they saw this group of people. They avoided their gazes, turning to see Lianyi instead.

"Miss, the following group of people are bodyguards. They should be escorting something through here, and these bodyguards know my daughter and me."

Wenlu didn't hide anything and told Ripples directly.

"But your late husband's former鏢行, didn't it exploit you and your daughter"

Ripples had someone investigate this mother-daughter duo, so she knows some of the details.

“Yes, miss! The head of the鏢 company has taken a liking to Minmin and wants her to marry his son. I disagree, so he began withholding my payment for escorting goods and took advantage of the situation to arrange encounters between his son and Minmin.”

Wen Lu gritted her teeth and said.

"I'm not a fool. After the first and second time, I started to realize something was wrong. When I asked my mother about it, she told me that the head of the鏢 had set his sights on me."

The son of the鏢 head claimed to be a scholar, but I felt he was all show and no substance. He couldn't write a few decent poems, but he was adept at drinking, gambling, and whoring.

Minmin pulled a disgusted face and continued, "Mom,"

“That chief bodyguard was eyeing Minmin’s skills and saw that I was the only widow, easy to manipulate. He wanted Minmin to carry on their family line and take over the鏢局 in the future, continuing to work for them like a slave. Naturally, I wouldn’t agree to this.”

The guild leader saw my disagreement and instructed a single, unmarried鏢師 to approach me, hoping to trick me into marrying him. He would then be able to take control of MinMin's marriage arrangements.

After I exposed him, I was ready to leave the鏢局 with Minmin. Just then, Zheng Tong came looking for me, so I took this opportunity to escape.

When we left, besides the silver notes, we took nothing else. Later, thanks to Miss's favor, we stayed at the manor and rarely went out. That's why they didn't notice our whereabouts.

This time the leader of the escort was that bodyguard who deliberately got close to me. I don't know if after three years they still remember us, whether they will still come looking for trouble for my daughter and me, so I specially came to inform Miss, please make a decision.

The text explained the reasons.

"Miss, we don't want to cause you any trouble, or perhaps we should avoid you for now and regroup with you once these people have left."

Mimin pursed her lips and suggested.

“I understand! This whole thing is not your fault at all. It’s just that the head of the鏢局 took advantage of you being single women, and tried to take advantage of you. Luckily, you stood your ground and had enough fighting ability to defend yourselves, otherwise, they would have forced you to stay.”

Now that you are under my protection, what are you afraid of them doing If they dare to have any ill intentions, as soon as they reach out, I'll cut off their hands. If they dare to show themselves, I'll chop off their heads.

The ripples of the atmosphere speak.

"Yes, Miss! We've noted it!"

Wen Lu's face broke into a slight smile, while Min Min responded with a wide grin.

Okay, go busy yourself! Do what you need to do.

"Yes!"

Having received the ripples' intel, the mother and daughter pair were no longer apprehensive. They went about their tasks systematically. First, they surveyed their surroundings, ensuring there were no security threats. Only then did they set up a few rudimentary warning traps with their guards.

Across from the waterfall, Long Wei鏢局's head鏢頭, Dugu, also noticed Wen Lu and her daughter. At first glance, he was a little surprised. Then, upon closer inspection, he saw that the mother and daughter were even more spirited than before. It seemed they had been living well and perhaps had taken on the role of private bodyguards.

He touched his chin, then glanced at the number of people opposite him. A calculation formed in his mind, and he immediately beckoned with his hand, calling his two deputies to his side. He whispered a few words to them.

Two lieutenants' eyes lit up, and they immediately nodded in agreement.

"Big boss, I see there are two pretty maids. After the job is done, can you give them to my brother and me as a reward"

"Alright! Take the mother and daughter back to the headmaster. They don't know their place. Before, they could be the wives of the deputy masters, but now they can only be concubines."

The one-eyed man said with a venomous face.

"That's right, who asked them to be so arrogant."

These conversations naturally didn't escape the ripples of Shennisi's divine awareness. She withdrew her divine awareness, sighed, and then in the depths of the night, directly set up a formation around the campsite, directly protecting the entire camp.

In the middle of the night, white mist arose by the waterfall and quickly spread throughout both sides of the camp.

The ripples here have an array protecting them, so it doesn't feel anything. It's just that the guards on duty felt a bit damp and cold, but since they were by the waterfall, they didn't mind.

But the mercenary camp on the opposite side was miserable. The white mist extinguished the campfire in the camp, followed by a rustling sound. Then, people sleeping soundly in the tents let out muffled groans one after another.

Finally, a roar broke out, startling the remaining people and waking Ripple too.

"What's going on"

The two guards here at the ripple immediately stood up and drew their swords.

"You don't need to go back and check, just stay here and don't move."

The sound of ripples came from behind the two of them. the air above the Sea of Soulflowers. She communicated with the gold element, and a magical formation large enough to cover the entire Sea of Soulflowers appeared beneath her feet."Go!"Ripples touche...
