“Miss, you’ve been sitting in the carriage all day, come out and stretch your legs!” The coachman suggested.
“Mmn.”
She replied and got out of the carriage. This was the first time she had gone out by herself on a trip, it was natural to feel a little scared. In addition, she had been reading the book about acupuncture points that Feng Jiu had left for her on the whole journey, naturally, she felt a little tired as well.
After she got out of the carriage and walked along the mountain road and breathed in the fresh air, her mood and spirits improved. After a while, she returned to the carriage. When she saw the coachman had gathered some branches to start a fire, she went over and sat down.
“Here, this is the dried food that I brought.” She had taken out two pieces of dried food from her cosmos sack and handed one to the coachman.
The coachman glanced at it and his eyes flickered. He took it and smiled: “Thank you Miss.”
The two of them sat around the fire and the coachman engaged Duan Yingying in conversation, probably because he knew that she had left home alone in search of her elder brother.
When it had gotten late, Duan Yingying returned to the carriage to rest while the coachman stayed by the fire to rest.
However, when she was fast asleep in the middle of the night, she felt a hand touching her and she jumped up in shock: “You, what are you doing?”
“Hehe, Miss, don’t be scared. I was afraid you might be cold so I came to check on you.” The coachman’s previously honest demeanour had been replaced by a look of coveting as he stared at Duan Yingying’s exquisite beauty and figure.
She was a lone woman in the wilderness with a strange man, and she was a beautiful woman with no cultivation strength, it was highly unlikely that nothing would have happened.
“Go away! Go away! Don’t touch me!”
She yelled in panic and struggled, kicking the man with her foot. She didn’t expect people on the outside to be so ill-intentioned. Neither did she expect her coachman who looked so honest, would be so malicious towards her.
“Hehe, Miss, it’s your first time away from home so you don’t know this. On the outside, not everyone is a good person. You have no cultivation strength but you are a beauty with a cosmos sack full of things. Don’t you know that you should never reveal your wealth? You’re lucky to have run into me. Don’t worry, as long as you do as I say, I will spare your life.”
“Come on! There’s no one here to save you, listen to me obediently and you won’t suffer, hahaha…”
“Go away! Go away! Help! Help….”
She yelled in panic as his hands were all over her body and tore at her clothes. Her heart was filled with despair and fear. She had never felt like that before and was confused, she didn’t know what to do.
“Rip!”
The sound of her clothes tearing made her despair and that in turn gave birth to her strong will to survive. She knew that no one would save her at that moment, and the only person who could save her was herself!
She desperately tried to calm herself down and remembered the jade pillow that was next to her. She felt for the jade pillow in that moment and hit the coachman hard on the back of his head with it.
“Ah!”
The coachman cried out and his body stiffened. He fell down and the whole carriage was filled with the strong scent of blood. To his death, the coachman had never expected that such a woman would be the one to give him the fatal blow that ended his life.
Duan Yingying ran out of the carriage in a panic. However, after she got off the carriage, she was frightened by the person who was standing outside.
