Ancheng.
The closest city to Shuicheng is Ancheng, which is much more prosperous than Shuicheng, mainly because there is a river here that can be used for water transportation, which has driven economic development.
This is a good thing, as it makes many businessmen from other countries want to come here to do business because it is easy to make money.
The most important thing is that this is still a place similar to a tourist attraction. When An Xin came here, he was also surprised by the beautiful mountains and rivers here. Generally, economically developed places will be a bit smoky and dirty, but this place is not like that at all.
"If I wasn't being chased by someone, I would really like to stay here for a while." Anxin couldn't help but say this as he breathed in the fresh air here.
"No one will say anything even if you stay here. You are already wearing a human skin mask anyway." Gu Zhuo Shang looked at her and his expression softened.
On their way here, Gu Zhaoshang arranged the human skin masks of several other people. Each one was made very delicately and was not a casual work.
When An Xin learned that these human skin masks were made by himself, there was inevitably some surprise on his face.
"I really didn't know you could even make these things." An Xin originally thought that he had bought that human skin mask somewhere and kept it as a backup.
How many abilities does this person have that she doesn't know about? He is so amazing, it seems like he knows everything!
"I have learned some things before, but it was just for the purpose of escape." When Gu Zhuo Shang mentioned this matter, his expression was very depressed.
That made An Xin feel a little sad. She heard from him that he was sent out of Miaojiang when he was very young. No one knew what had happened to the Gu family at that time that they suffered such a disaster.
At that time, Qin Chen should not have become the King of Miaojiang yet, so although he was related to the decline of the Gu family, he was definitely not the direct cause.
This was probably the task 007 assigned to her, to investigate the secret past of the Gu family.
The atmosphere suddenly became heavy because of his words. An Xin didn't know how to comfort him and could only sigh helplessly.
"There's no need to be like that. I've let go of these things." Gu Zhuo Shang probably noticed the expression on her face, and said with a smile.
And you still say that it’s not necessary? The lonely look just now wasn’t him?
Of course, An Xin felt that she still had to give him some face and it was not good to say anything too harsh, so she simply nodded in agreement.
"Okay, let's go into the city first." An Xin raised a faint smile and led them into the city.
Because they all had human skin masks on their faces, few people recognized them. However, there were a few wanted portraits at the city gate, all of which were of them.
It seems that he is really wanted nationwide...
For safety reasons, they did not choose to stay in the inn this time, but chose to stay in a house for a few days like they did in Water City.
Fortunately, there are many such residential rentals in Miaojiang, so they don’t feel very strange.
An Xin looked at these intuitions and felt very strange. Isn't this the B&B of the 21st century?
They settled down in a relatively remote and quiet residence. There was no one to disturb them, which made it convenient for them to talk about things. The most important thing was that when An Rou came to kill them, they could escape quickly.
"Mom..." At this time, Mengbao suddenly grabbed Anxin's hand and called out pitifully.
An Xin's heart softened when she heard his voice, "What's wrong, Mengbao? Are you feeling unwell?"
"It hurts!" Mengbao's adorable face suddenly wrinkled up and he could only utter this one word.
An Xin's brows were furrowed all of a sudden. She didn't know why he suddenly said it hurt somewhere. When she wanted to ask something, she immediately saw the cute baby's eyes turned red.
It was something she had never seen before. At that moment, An Xin was really frightened. She stood there in a daze for a moment, not knowing what to do.
Meng Bao opened his mouth wide and rushed towards An Xin as if he wanted to kill her, even waving his fist at An Xin.
It was the first time for An Xin to see the cute baby like this, and she was so stunned that she didn't know how to react.
By the time she reacted, it was too late. Meng Bao had already hit her with her fist. The force was even beyond An Xin's expectations. She fell to the ground without any preparation.
The cute baby also pounced on her, opened his mouth wide and prepared to bite the carotid artery in her neck, which scared An Xin so much that she immediately tried to dodge away.
"Mengbao!" The other people were also frightened by Mengbao's appearance. By the time they reacted, it was too late to go over to help.
What An Xin didn't expect the most was Meng Bao's strength. It was so great that unless she used her internal energy to shake him away, Meng Bao would definitely be injured.
An Xin could only use brute force to block his head, and she didn't dare to use too much force, "Mengbao! Mengbao, wake up, what's wrong with you?!"
How could it suddenly become like this? An Xin was really scared, not because she was afraid that she would be hurt, but because she was afraid that something would happen to Meng Bao.
"Ding—" At this moment, a small thing flew from a distance and shot directly into the cute baby's mouth.
After a few seconds, Meng Bao gradually calmed down and then fainted aside.
An Xin was frightened and kept shouting, "Mengbao! Wake up, Mengbao!"
"Don't worry, he's fine, he just fell asleep temporarily." Suddenly, a strange voice sounded not far away.
Several people in the group looked straight at the man with vigilant eyes, and An Xin's murderous intent burst out, as if he was going to kill the other person in the next second.
Such a target was too obvious, and Liu Zhiyan caught it immediately. He immediately raised his hands to surrender, "Calm down first, I'm not here to cause trouble for you."
"Who are you?" An Xin knew that the situation the five of them were in was very bad. If any strangers sneaked in, they would definitely be enemies.
Now they are wanted nationwide. Who knows if An Rou will come up with some new conspiracy? An Xin has really become a little paranoid because of her conspiracies.
Upon hearing this, Liu Zhiyan quickly said, "I'm just a passerby. I happened to hear some noise here so I came to take a look and offer my help."
