Traveling through the busy farmland of a peasant girl

Chapter 274 Shen Li is in danger

The sun shines through the thin clouds and shines on the bustling streets of the capital. There are crowds of people walking around, and the cries of vendors are heard one after another, creating a lively and peaceful scene.

However, beneath this seemingly calm surface, a thrilling crisis is quietly approaching.

Shen Li was sitting in a beautifully decorated carriage. Chuchun and Chuqiu in the carriage looked alert. They kept observing the situation outside through the gaps in the windows.

Around the carriage were several guards with upright postures and alert eyes. They followed the carriage closely, carefully guarding Shen Li's safety.

At the same time, on the roofs on both sides of the street, Su Ran, dressed in black, with a strong and agile figure, was like a cheetah lurking in the dark, quietly watching every move of Shen Li's carriage.

His eyes were deep and cold, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a calculating sneer.

He had already carefully planned this operation. Not only had he arranged the personnel to stage a good play of "hero saving the beauty", he also planned to take the opportunity to teach Bai Yu, who always pestered Shen Li, a lesson and make him give up.

On the other side, Bai Yu also received the news. He rushed towards Shen Li with joy. The scene of himself showing his skills in front of Shen Li and becoming her savior kept appearing in his mind. The corners of his mouth rose unconsciously, and his steps became more and more rapid, as if he had already seen Shen Li's eyes of gratitude and admiration for him.

In a very secluded corner, Fuqiu's face was gloomy, with a fierce light flashing in her eyes, and she held the deadly bow and arrow tightly in her hand.

She had been preparing for today's action for a long time. Not only did she secretly arrange a group of ruthless killers, she also lurked here herself, vowing to make Shen Li disappear from this world forever.

In her opinion, Shen Li is the stumbling block to her goal. As long as she gets rid of Shen Li, she can get everything she wants.

Suddenly, there was a commotion around the carriage. A group of assassins emerged from all directions like ghosts, instantly surrounding the carriage. The guards immediately drew their swords and engaged in a fierce and brutal fight with the assassins.

"Miss, stay in the carriage and don't go out! It's dangerous outside!" Chuchun shouted in horror. She and Chuqiu tightly guarded the carriage door, their eyes full of worry and fear, and their bodies trembling slightly because of nervousness.

Upon seeing this, Bai Yu rushed forward without hesitation, shouting, "Don't be afraid, County Master Fuxi, I'm here to save you!" However, as soon as he approached, an arrow shot out from the darkness and hit his arm accurately.

Bai Yu suddenly let out a scream, and blood instantly stained his sleeves red, but he still endured the severe pain and tried to continue approaching the carriage, thinking in his heart that he must not lose face in front of Shen Li.

Su Ran seized the opportunity, jumped down from the roof, and pounced towards the carriage like a black lightning.

At the same time, Fuqiu also moved. She drew her bow and shot an arrow, aiming clearly at the carriage.

However, she never expected that one of the assassins she arranged accidentally bumped into her, and the arrow instantly deviated from its direction and went towards Su Ran.

Su Ran sensed the approaching danger and instinctively turned his body to the side. The arrow flew past his ear, creating a gust of wind that made him break out in a cold sweat.

"What's going on?" Su Ran thought to himself, a hint of anger flashed in his eyes, but at this moment he had no time to think about it and continued to run towards the carriage.

Shen Li, who was in the carriage, heard the fierce fighting and shouting outside and became extremely anxious.

Through the window, she saw the danger around Chuchun and Chuqiu getting closer and closer. Finally, she gritted her teeth, gripped the sword tightly in her hand, rushed out of the carriage and joined the battle.

"Miss!" Chuchun and Chuqiu shouted in panic, but Shen Li was already surrounded by swords and sabers.

At this moment, an arrow flew towards Su Ran like lightning. Su Ran was fighting with several killers and did not notice it.

Shen Li saw that the person was Su Ran, so she rushed over without hesitation and swung her sword to block the arrow.

"Hmph!" Fuqiu, hiding in the shadows, saw Shen Li's move and raised the corner of her mouth slightly, revealing a hint of a sneer. She was waiting for this opportunity, and quickly drew her bow, aimed at Shen Li, and shot out a deadly arrow.

Shen Li had just blocked the arrow and before she could recover, she felt a sharp pain in her heart.

She looked at her chest with her eyes widened in disbelief, then slowly fell down.

"Miss!" Chuchun and Chuqiu screamed heartbreakingly. They wanted to rush over, but were stopped by the killers.

Su Ran heard the shout and turned around to see Shen Li falling down after being shot by an arrow. His eyes instantly became sharp and resolute.

He quickly dealt with the assassins around him, then rushed over, picked up Shen Li, and used his lightness skills to fly towards the Fuxi County Lady's Mansion.

Along the way, Su Ran's face was terribly gloomy. Shen Li in his arms was as pale as paper, her breath was weak, and her clothes were stained red with blood.

"Hold on, Shen Li!" Su Ran whispered, and his pace quickened.

Bai Yu covered his wound with a gloomy face and watched Shen Li being carried away. His carefully arranged "heroic rescue of the beauty" was disrupted and snatched away by that inexplicable young man, and he was injured as a result. He could not help but grit his teeth in hatred and left this chaotic place unwillingly and silently.

At this time, on the streets of the capital, the killers gradually dispersed after seeing Su Ran taking Shen Li away, leaving behind only a mess and the heartbroken cries of Chuchun, Chuqiu and others.

This sudden assassination plunged everyone into deep fear and sadness, and Shen Li's fate hung between life and death.
