I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times

Even though he was just asking for an old hen, Ling Chu did not refuse to help because Aunt Sun was a repeat customer.

 In the eyes of wealthy people, a chicken is simply not worth mentioning.

 But in poor people's homes, it is a rare and valuable thing, and it is a good thing that may not be eaten once throughout the year.

Some people keep an old hen carefully in their homes, just waiting for it to lay eggs to replenish the health of the elderly and children at home.

 Some people are even reluctant to eat an egg. They want to save them one by one, sell them, and exchange them for money to buy oil, salt, rice and noodles.

Even though Mrs. Sun’s family is hungry, an old hen is still precious to her.

Seeing that Ling Chu agreed to help her get it back, she felt happy and thanked her again and again.

Aunt Sun rarely makes a trip to Beijing. In addition to coming to Ling Chu to help her collect debts, she also wants to go shopping and buy some things for her family.

So we agreed to go collect the debt later in the afternoon.

After Aunt Sun left, Ling Chu continued to make talismans in the shop.

 One morning, Shopkeeper Lu sold two talisman papers, while Ling Chu calculated three hexagrams.

Although the income is not much, we finally have a deal.

After lunch, Lingchu asked the **** to drive her to Sun Da's house.

Because he was worried about someone coming to the shop to cause trouble, Ling Chu left a guard in case shopkeeper Lu couldn't handle it alone.

 After getting in the car, Ling Chu closed her eyes. Although her body and bones were now better than before, she still had to seize every opportunity to rest her mind.

Just when she was drowsy, the guard Shen who was driving the carriage suddenly shouted, "The horse is frightened, girl, be careful..."

As soon as he finished speaking, the carriage suddenly started running wildly.

Screams and curses of all kinds immediately rang out in the street.

Ling Chu suddenly woke up.

Ignoring the pain in my back from being hit by the wall of the carriage, I hurriedly lifted the curtains and saw the panicked crowds on the street retreating quickly.

 Shen Huwei did not expect that the originally good horse would suddenly go crazy.

While shouting at the people on the street to avoid him, he desperately grabbed the reins and tried to stop the horse.

 But he didn’t know what was going on with the horse. He tried his best, but couldn’t make it stop.

Ling Chu was worried that the carriage would hit pedestrians, so he quickly took out a piece of talisman and threw it at the horse.

 The talisman has a calming effect, and the horse's galloping speed is slowly slowing down.

 The guard was overjoyed and quickly increased his strength.

It took some more effort to get the carriage to stop.

Ling Chu breathed a sigh of relief and was about to get out of the car to check if he had hit any pedestrians along the way.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she got up, the horse that had finally stopped suddenly ran forward, causing Ling Chu to be knocked backwards.

Just when she hit the wall of the carriage, she happened to see an arrow stuck in the belly of the horse.

Lingchu was so angry.

 She was plotted against again.

Shen Huwei was angry and blamed himself. When he saw the carriage running wildly, he didn't care about dealing with the person who was secretly doing it, and tightened the reins tightly in his hands.

However, the horse was hit by an arrow and couldn't stop in pain.

Even if Ling Chu added three more talisman papers to it, it wouldn't work.

Seeing the horse rushing towards a wall in front of him, Shen Huwei could only jump on it and wiped its neck with the dagger.

 The carriage barely stopped before hitting the wall.

Ling Chu had a pale face and dragged his aching body out of the car. He immediately ordered the guards, "Go and check quickly to see if there are any traces of the assassin."

Shen Wei pursed his lips and stood still, with a look of guilt and worry on his face, "Miss Ling, I can't leave. I have to protect you." Ling Chu glanced at him and waved his hand to summon a shovel and a small hammer. "Don't worry about me, go check it out quickly. I'll take care of the stall where the carriage crashed."

Shen Wei didn't want to leave, but she insisted and had no choice but to investigate first.

Just as the guards left, there was the sound of horse hooves running towards us from both ends of the long street.

 Xia Zhi was very happy, "Master Ning is here."

Ling Chu looked at the figure running towards him on horseback, pursed his lips, and turned his head to look to the other side.

 It is Cao Cao who commanded the envoy and his subordinates.

Ning Chuyi turned over and dismounted, frowned and asked in a deep voice, "Are you injured?"

 Ling Chu glanced back at him and shook his head, "Thank you for your concern, sir. It's not a big problem."

Seeing her pale face, Ning Chuyi knew that she must be injured, but he didn't say it out loud.

For some reason, a surge of anger suddenly arose in my heart.

 After pressing it, he asked in a deep voice, "Where is the **** I gave you? Why didn't you take it with you when you went out?"

“Zhao Jian was left in the shop by me, while Shen Weigang went to find the assassin.”

Ning Chuyi frowned and waved his hand to Wei Feng to take people to help Shen Wei.

 He turned to look at the horse whose neck had been wiped.

Over there, Cao Hongxin hurried over with people, "Miss Ling, I heard that your carriage had an accident on the street?"

Lingchu nodded and told the story in a few words.

Ning Chuyi had already finished checking, "In addition to being shot with arrows, your horse was also drugged."

Lingchu had already had a premonition that if her horse hadn't been tampered with, it wouldn't have gone crazy suddenly.

I don’t know if Shen Weiwei has any clues.

Unable to think any more, Ling Chu endured the pain in his body and hurried back along the road.

This time, the frightened horse crashed into more than a dozen small stalls. Fortunately, Guard Shen kept reining in the reins and the carriage did not hit anyone. But a few fell and got injured while avoiding the carriage.

Ling Chu took out the banknote in public and promised that she would pay for all the damaged stalls. She also pays for the medical expenses of the injured.

Those who were originally full of complaints saw that she did not ignore her. In addition, Xu saw that the commander of the Xicheng Army and Horses Division and Mr. Ning were present, so they did not continue to accuse her.

Cao Hongxin also breathed a sigh of relief and asked his men to help count the damaged stalls. He also helped Ling Chu change the silver notes into copper plates to pay the small stall owners.

 The injured were also sent to the hospital for treatment by doctors.

 After the aftermath was done, Ling Chu breathed a sigh of relief.

Wei Feng, who led people to track down clues, has returned, but unfortunately, he found nothing.

The man in the dark came well prepared and acted very cautiously, leaving no clues behind.

 The arrow that hit the horse's belly was the same as the one used to pour oil and set fire to it last time.

The person who set the fire last time was never found, and this time there are still no clues.

Ling Chu smiled bitterly in his heart, not knowing who had killed her over and over again.

All the stalls that were damaged were lost money. Seeing that it was getting late, Ling Chu planned to seize the time and go to Mrs. Sun's house to collect the debt before returning home to rest.

 Only, he found that Shen Huwei was missing.

Ning Chuyi waved his hand and called four well-dressed men, "There is something going on at Ning Guogong's mansion. I asked Shen Wei to go back and deal with it. These four guards will be with you from now on. Remember to take them with you when you go out."

Wei Feng stood aside and did not dare to speak. In fact, Shen Wei did not go back to deal with things. It was because he had neglected his duty and failed to protect Miss Ling. He felt guilty and had already gone back to receive the punishment. (End of chapter)
