It had been three days since he left Luo Sai City, and Luo Ya felt that there was something wrong with his journey.
"Why is my mouth a little swollen?"
Looking at his bright red lips in the mirror, Luo Ya's head was full of question marks, and his eyes revealed a deep sense of confusion.
Although before the start of this journey, Luo Ya had thought about the possibility of diseases such as acclimatization, he had to admit that the current situation was a little beyond his understanding.
Swollen mouth, what kind of disease could this be?
Could it be that eating too much roasted meat made him heaty?
No, it didn't happen before. After all, how could an Extraordinaire's body be so weak?
Luo Ya couldn't figure out what was wrong with himself, so he could only call Cynthia over and ask if this was a common disease during the journey. Cynthia looked at him, and her expression was a little awkward.
"My Lord, your mouth … seems to be a little swollen."
Cynthia carefully observed for a long time and said so. Luo Ya couldn't help but be a little speechless. He could only hold his chin and look at the ground, thinking about the reason. However, it was this action that made the young man's dilated pupils suddenly focus, and he stared at the ground like needles.
This time, when Sorofia modified the carriage, she took into account the possibility of a battle, so the interior of the carriage didn't use a soft carpet that could make one unstable. Instead, she used a special floor that could increase one's grip on the ground. Because of this, some things that normally wouldn't be left behind on the carriage were clearly visible, such as … footprints.
The black-haired young man stared at the faint footprints on the ground, and his expression gradually became unsightly.
It wasn't that no one entered Luo Ya's carriage, or rather, it was to report to him about the daily itinerary and route. Cynthia and the others entered many times, but Luo Ya could be sure that these footprints didn't belong to any of the guards, because the footprints were too small, and it even made him suspect that they belonged to a child.
A child, in the middle of the night when he was asleep, entered his carriage surrounded by guards?
Thinking of this possibility, Luo Ya's hair stood on end. Although ghosts did exist in Xi Ya's world and there were many ways to get rid of them, the horror of someone staring at him at night still made him feel very uncomfortable.
On the other hand, the thing that could leave behind footprints was probably not a ghost, but something more advanced. The most common legend was that there were banshees in the forest that sucked the lives of travelers, but these records were from hundreds of years ago.
Luo Ya didn't believe that he could encounter such a thing like winning the lottery, but even if it was a human, the nature of this matter was very serious.
The carriage of the Akat Family's heir wasn't a public transport. Not everyone could get on it.
After thinking for a while, the black-haired young man calmed down and called out to Cynthia with his usual tone.
"Cynthia, give me the map."
"Yes, sir."
The brown-haired woman took the map and entered the carriage, but what she saw was Luo Ya's serious face. The young man gently pointed to the ground, and Cynthia's face immediately turned gloomy.
Half an hour later, the young lady walked out of the carriage and continued to move forward without saying a word, as if nothing had happened. Luo Ya was also as usual, and even took an afternoon nap.
In the evening, the convoy stopped by the roadside again. After a little hunting to replenish their rations, the convoy had dinner. Luo Ya, who seemed to be in a good mood, even sang a song with his subordinates. After that, the black-haired young man returned to the carriage to sleep at about the same time as a few days ago.
Time passed little by little, and when the silver moon hung high in the sky at midnight, Luo Ya's' sleeping 'carriage lit up with a faint silver light, and a slender figure appeared as expected.
The next moment, the young man exploded, and the sound of fighting filled the air.
“.....”
“.....”
Half an hour later, in the carriage, Luo Ya sat at the table and stared expressionlessly at the 'seductress' who broke into his carriage. On the bed opposite, the pitiful young lady was sitting like a duck facing her elder brother, blushing and lowering her head without saying a word.
It has to be said that Luo Ya and Cynthia's plan to lure the enemy was very successful. At midnight, Ai Lisi, who was in a good mood after hearing Luo Ya's song, appeared without any warning. However, what welcomed her was a huge bone claw and surrounded from all sides.
The moment he saw Ai Lisi's face, Luo Ya's actions stopped reflexively, but it was too late to stop his subordinates outside the carriage.
As the leader of the Iron Wall Mercenaries, Cynthia placed great importance on this journey of escorting her family's Saint. She never thought that even with all her precautions, there would still be a problem. In order to make up for her mistake, Cynthia rushed in fiercely, and almost at the same time when Luo Ya stopped, she broke in with her men.
Then … it was the public execution.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the silver-haired young lady was frozen in her position of taking off her shoes and climbing onto her elder brother's bed. The black-haired young man was also stunned, and the same went for Cynthia. The leader of the mercenaries had escorted Xia Luote before, so naturally she had seen the eldest daughter of the Akat family. However, while Luo Ya and Cynthia had seen each other before, the rest of the mercenaries did not recognize her.
