Chapter 3: Caravan guard

Outside the inn, a group of more than a dozen people walked slowly around a carriage with the banner of “Guard”.

“When we arrive at the Jinyu Inn, we must eat to our heart’s content.”

“Yes, the meat buns at Jinyu Inn are truly incredible.”

Several veteran caravan guards walked in the middle of the line, chatting beside the carriage, and the atmosphere was relaxed.

“Stop.”

The leading man was wearing red leather armour and holding a horse. He looked at the quiet inn, narrowed his eyes, and raised his hand to stop the young caravan guard who was following him.

“Chief Lin, what’s the matter?”

The red-leather armoured man appeared to be quite prestigious. As soon as he spoke, several young caravan guards tightened the grips around their sheaths, drew their swords, and cautiously guarded the surroundings.

“It smells like blood.”

Lin, chief of the caravan guard frowned.

When on the job, caravan guards were most afraid of this kind of accident.

The route to Black River City was rather peaceful, so he brought along a number of inexperienced young caravan guards to give them considerable experience.

However, the trouble seemed to come their way.

“Old Li, Xiao Wang, please enter with me and have a look. Old Zhao, I’ll let you oversee the outside.” Lin commanded in a suppressed voice.

Due to the great number of people there, the commotion was way too loud. If there was anyone in the Inn, the individual would have been alarmed a long time ago.

I’m going to go look with a small group, get the information I need, and avoid being caught off guard.

“Let’s go around, Dad.”

A female guard who appeared to be fifteen years old, had slim legs, and wore a long grey garment, said with a nervous voice.

Her wheat-colored skin was slightly rough, and she had a charming baby face and a nice physique; her entire body exuded vigour.

Lin shook his head and said, “Yao’er, Dad will be back shortly.”

“Don’t worry.”

“But…” Lin Yao wanted to say more.

Lin waved his hand and walked toward the Inn first. The other two caravan guards followed behind him with a cautious pace.

All three of them were shocked when they walked into the Inn and saw the lobby.

“Ah!”

Even if he was mentally prepared, the young man named Xiao Wang couldn’t help but scream out.

The air was heavy with a foul odour, and the floor was stained red with the demon, which had been chopped in half, and its grotesque posture grew even more bizarre after death.

“Demon… demon!”

The legs of Xiao Wang shook, and his face grew pale.

Not only him, but also the Old Li, who had served as a caravan guard for many years, couldn’t help but take deep breaths as his expression changed dramatically. He hurriedly spoke to Chief Lin.

“Chief Lin, let’s get out of here.”

They were caravan guards who had seen a lot of the world and knew more about the terror and strength of demons.

Creak.

While Chief Lin hadn’t answered yet, they heard footsteps coming up the stairs.

The three of them were shocked and couldn’t breathe as they stared at the top of the stairs.

“Hmm?”

Chief Lin was taken aback when he was met by a beautiful girl with a jade face and star-like eyes. Her black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, and there was a knife around her waist. She resembled a heavenly fairy.

Instantaneously, he felt horror in his heart, to the point that he believed she was a demon and possibly more scary than demons.

Looking at the girl’s calm gaze, Chief Lin bit his head and said, “Lin Shaoyuan, under Qinghe County Caravan Guard Bureau, may I ask who you are?”

This cold girl was naturally Gu Qing’an.

Gu Qing’an walked downstairs and looked at the three of them who had taken a few steps back cautiously, and smiled indifferently.

Caravan guard?

Interesting.

“Gu Qing’an, Gu Clan of Black River City.”

“Gu Clan?

“That is one of the four major clan in Black River City!”

Xiao Wang, the young caravan guard, exclaimed.

Chief Lin had his doubts. He had been running errands along the road to Black River City for a long time, so he knew the Gu Clan. However, this person just showed up out of the blue in the middle of nowhere, and no one knew if her words were true or not.

He didn’t dare to offend Gu Qing’an either. Looking at the demon corpse on the ground, he knew that this person was definitely not easy.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Shaoyuan said solemnly, “It turned out to be Miss Gu. In fact, I have some kind of connection with the Gu Clan. I was lucky enough to be able to go to Gu Hong’s son’s wedding.”

“Gu Hong?”

Gu Qing’an tried to remember her, but she couldn’t help but roll her eyes in her heart.

“Lord, let’s not be funny. How could you talk about marriage when my Fourth Brother is only nine years old?

Lin Shaoyuan was embarrassed when he heard this, so he gave out a smile and apologised.

This world was not significantly different from ancient China, and the information and transportation were inconvenient. It was difficult for outsiders to determine that Gu Hong was the family’s fourth son, let alone his age.

Considering Miss Gu’s extraordinary demeanour, she must come from a large family, and he believed her identity was 20% or 30% authentic.

This Lin Shaoyuan really did want to trick me, Gu Qing’an thought to herself. She had no intention of playing dumb puzzles with this person anymore, so she directly asked.

“This time, your caravan is going to Black River City?”

The two guards hesitated, glanced at Chief Lin, and saw him meditate for a moment and nod.

Gu Qingan’s heart moved, she had an idea in that second.

She immediately sighed and said, “To be honest, I’ve been studying abroad for a long time. A long time ago, my dad had someone call me and bring me home. Last night, this demon sneaked into the Inn, which was a surprise. It took me a while to notice. Even though I killed this demon in the end, my Uncle Zhao sadly passed away.”

“Sure enough, she killed this demon!” The three caravan guards were greatly shocked.

Then, Gu Qing’an looked at the three caravan guards with a serious look on her face and said, “As the saying goes, fallen leaves return to their roots. Uncle Zhao was always good to my family, and I couldn’t stand the thought of him going to a different country.

“Could you please take Uncle Zhao’s body back to where it came from? I know this is going to be troublesome. When I go out, I don’t take many things with me. I only have 20 silver taels. When I get to Gu’s Mansion, I’ll be sure to have another gift ready.”

An average worker earned twenty taels after a year of hard work, which was not a small amount.

Gu Qing’an stared straight at Chief Lin’s eyebrows with an honest look in her eyes.

She mastered this skill in the past life. If she wanted to convey sincerity but didn’t dare to look directly into the other person’s eyes, she could instead stare at his eyebrows, which would have the same effect as staring straight into his eyes.

Gu Qingan believed in her heart that it was a ruse to give Uncle Zhao an opportunity to return to his roots, but her true intention was to have them guard her journey back to Black River City.

Although Gu Qing’an’s confidence increased greatly after killing that demon monkey, it was best to be cautious in this strange world and stick with the convoy. Even if something did happen, there would be a few cannon fodder to block the attacks, gaining her some cooldown time.

Of course, Gu Qing’an also considered the possibility that these caravan guards might be plotting against her.

It was likely that these folks were aware that Gu Qing’an was born in the famous Gu Clan and that she was also ferocious with demon-killing abilities. Besides, there were still generous gifts in Black River City.

Do they still have to risk the lives of several people to harm Gu Qing’an despite knowing so much?

Normal people would never do something that was not worth the risk.

His head was filled with millions of thoughts, yet he only reflected for a second.

After hearing this, Chief Lin thought to himself, “This woman possesses exceptional martial arts talents and can cut demons with a knife. She comes from a famous family and is a person who values comradeship.”please readthischapteratwondernovls.com

By this time, Chief Lin had already believed in Gu Qing’an’s identity by 80% or 90%, and Gu Qing’an’s words and car for his loyal servant made him quite fond of her.

“Miss Gu, I, Lin Shaoyuan, will take this matter in my hands,” He said solemnly to Gu Qingan.

Then, the people of Qinghe County Caravan Guard replenished some supplies in the inn and collected the body of Uncle Zhao.please readthischapteratwondernovls.com

The group of Qinghe County Caravan Guard set off again at noon, but this time there was an extra cold girl and a cart covered in white cloth.

Gu Qing’an walked slowly at the end of the convoy, looked back at the inn deeply, turned her head, and left facing the rising sun.

It was just that she didn’t pay attention. Lin Yao, Chief Lin’s daughter, stared at her with displeasure.
