Spoilers for The Red Mansion, Daiyu’s mentality is broken

Chapter 309 Assassin

After breakfast the next day, Jia Huan drove three cars and prepared to travel.

Two of the three vehicles were loaded with luggage, and the other was occupied by people.

This time Jia Huan only brought three maids and two guards, Mo Zhu Mo Mei.

The chariot for the people was provided by the Mohists. It was said to be very strong and could withstand powerful crossbows.

Jia Huan and three maids were sitting in the car, and two guards, Mo Zhu and Mo Mei, were driving outside. The space inside the car was large enough, so you could sit in it.

Before leaving, all the sisters of the Jia family rushed over to see him off. They stood outside the door and burst into tears.

Jia Huan waved goodbye and walked out of the city. Outside the city, he suddenly saw a few more friends.

There are four people: Xue Pan, Wei Ruolan, Liu Changqing and Xu Shichang.

Seeing a few people, Jia Huan couldn't help but jump out of the car, held his hands to them and said, "Thank you all brothers for seeing me off!"

A banquet was set up beside the four of them.

Xue Pan's eyes were red, he poured a glass of wine and handed it to Jia Huan and said: "Brother Huan, please drink this glass! Brother Yu wishes you a bright future and success!"

Jia Huan smiled and took the wine and drank it down in one gulp. He thought to himself that this guy was just uneducated and incompetent, but he still liked to gossip.

It’s okay to have a bright future, but what the hell is success?It's not like I'm going out to march or fight.

Wei Ruolan also toasted Jia Huan with a glass of wine, patted his shoulder and said, "Brother Huan, I wish you great success and great success!"

Jia Huan also drank the glass of wine, and then Liu Changqing came over and said with a smile: "County Magistrate Jia, can I call my brother-in-law to come and listen?"

Why is this guy so happy after getting engaged to his second sister?
Jia Huan rolled her eyes at Liu Changqing and said, "You and my second sister haven't gotten married yet. Let's talk about it after we get married."

Liu Changqing chuckled and said: "Sooner or later, why don't we each discuss it separately? I call you Brother Jia? You call me brother-in-law?"

I'm afraid there's something seriously wrong with this guy's brain!
Jia Huan didn't bother to talk to him.

Xu Shichang finally toasted Jia Huan with a glass of wine and said: "Brother Jia, I wish you a safe journey and give full play to what you have learned."

After saying goodbye to a few people, Jia Huan got a little drunk, then got into the carriage and left.

The capital is only more than fifty miles away from Ping'an County, and the whole journey is an official road, so it only takes more than an hour.

In the carriage, Jia Huan leaned against the wall of the carriage and took a nap.

Qingwen hurriedly leaned next to Jia Huan so that Jia Huan's head could rest on her shoulder and she could sleep more comfortably.

Caiyun sat on the other side of Jia Huan, and Yuanyang sat opposite Jia Huan.

I don't know how long it had passed in the groggy state, but the three girls in the car also started to take a nap.

Suddenly the carriage came to a sudden stop, and Jia Huan couldn't help but lean forward, crushing Yuanyang underneath him.

Qingwen and Caiyun both fell forward and screamed in pain.

Jia Huan gritted his teeth and asked, "What's going on outside?"

Mo Zhu and Mo Mei jumped out of the car and said cautiously: "Sir, there are assassins! Please don't get out of the car until we retreat."

After saying that, Mo Zhu suddenly reached out and pressed some mechanism outside the car.

The entire carriage suddenly made a rattling sound, and iron partitions fell down on all sides.

Fortunately, there are still ventilation openings and viewing openings, so that the interior of the car will not be too dark.

When the three women heard that there was an assassin, they were all frightened and trembling.

They grew up in the Jia Mansion and have never left the Jia Mansion. They are still little girls. How can they not be afraid when they hear there are assassins?

However, the next moment, Caiyun and Qingwen crowded in front of Jia Huan, saying with trembling voices: "Don't be afraid, Third Master, we will protect Third Master!"

Yuanyang also got up from the ground, stood in front of him and said, "Unless I die, otherwise no one can hurt the third master." Seeing the actions of the three girls, Jia Huan was a little moved, and also Kind of funny.

If there really is an assassin coming to kill you, what use will the heads of you three girls do?

Jia Huan stretched out his arms to push the three girls away and said, "You all come to the back. I'll take a look at the situation outside first."

Did you encounter an assassin just after leaving the capital?

Don't let these two little guys, Mo Zhu and Mo Mei, be suspicious and alarmist, right?
Nowadays, both the reformists and conservatives are looking forward to him taking office in Ping'an County. Jia Huan does not believe that someone will come to assassinate him at this time. It is completely unreasonable.

The next moment, Jia Huan's eyes were close to the observation port, and he quickly saw the situation outside. Jia Huan's pupils suddenly shrank.

Just on the side of the carriage, there were actually more than a dozen masked men in black riding towards their carriage.

At this time, there was only a short distance of less than a hundred meters away from the carriage.

The dozen or so men on horseback drew their long bows, nocked arrows, and shot directly at the carriage.

More than a dozen arrows flew over as fast as lightning.

Jia Huan was startled, and the first reaction in his mind was to quickly lie down on the carriage.

But his body couldn't react at all, and the next moment, he heard a loud clanking sound.

For a moment, Jia Huan's mind went blank. Did I just die here?
After a while, Jia Huan realized belatedly that he was completely fine.

It turned out that all the arrows fired were blocked by the carriage.

At this time, Jia Huan was frightened for a while and realized that his whole body was soaked in cold sweat.

The carriage sent by the Mo family is indeed strong!
If it weren't for the Mo family's carriage, I might have been killed by an arrow right now.

Next, Jia Huan became worried about Mo Zhu and Mo Mei outside the car.

No matter how powerful the two of them were, they would probably have a narrow escape from death under this rain of arrows.

What's more, even if they can escape the rain of arrows, when these dozen cavalrymen rush over, they will be unable to withstand the attack with just two fists.

Once these two people died and the four of them hid in the carriage, wouldn't they be like turtles in a jar?
In desperation, Jia Huan hurriedly looked at Mo Zhu and Mo Mei.

Then it was discovered that the two people held up two large dark umbrellas in front of them. The two of them hid under the umbrellas and escaped the rain of arrows.

Jia Huan was happy at first, and then worried.

The assassins, who were charging over with more than a dozen riders, were already approaching.

Seeing that their bows and arrows failed to work, they simply abandoned their bows and arrows and came on horseback.

As he got closer, Jia Huan saw more and more clearly. These dozen assassins were all tall, capable and decisive, and each of them was very ferocious.

Jia Huan was extremely scared at this time.

In his past life and this life, he has never encountered such a dangerous encounter.

The next moment, Jia Huan suddenly saw Mo Zhu and Mo Mei suddenly throwing away their black umbrellas.

The two of them raised their arms, and then several shrill sounds broke through the air.

The assassins in front fell off their horses in an instant.

But the attacks of Mo Zhu and Mo Mei have not stopped!
The remaining dozen or so assassins on horseback were still in disarray despite this unexpected incident.

They tightened the reins fiercely, and the horses under their crotches suddenly raised their upper bodies and neighed loudly.

These dozen assassins quickly jumped off their horses.

The space on horseback was narrow and it was inconvenient to move around, so they abandoned their horses and fought on foot.
