Empress Running Away with the Ball!

Chapter 86: One, two, three, run backwards

Views:

Xiaoru looked over in confusion and saw a large crowd of people gathering at the end of the street. She remembered that when she came last time, there was obviously no one there.

"Xiao Ru, one, two, three, turn back and run!"

Without saying a word, Shen Ning pulled Xiao Ru and turned around and ran away.

But it was too late. Someone in the crowd had already spotted them, pointed in their direction, and said, "That's her!"

Then the group of people was like a big black cloud, rushing toward them.

After Shen Ning and Xiao Ru ran a few steps, they were chased by the crowd behind them and surrounded them in the center.

It's over, I can't run away.

Shen Ning simply stopped and decided that the troops would stop him and the water would flood him.

She slowly turned around, cupped her hands to an old man who came over panting, and said hello with a smile.

"Old man, I haven't seen you for two days. You are in good spirits and look even stronger."

The old man was the character tester she stopped on the street the day before yesterday with a basket of eggs. After hearing her talk, he willingly took out ten taels of silver as a thank you gift.

So when she saw the old man and the crowd of people behind him from a distance, her heart trembled, her intuition was not good, and she ran away, but she didn't expect that she still couldn't escape.

Her first reaction was that something must have happened to the old man's fat son, so the old man brought someone to settle the score with her.

But now I can't run away, I can only take one step at a time, and use a delaying strategy first.

The old man was running so hard that he was panting. He finally managed to catch his breath. He put his hands on his hips, blowing his beard and staring at Shen Ning with a fierce look on his face.

"Hey, little girl, why are you running away? Do you think we are tigers or lions who can eat you?"

Shen Ning smiled and said: "Old man, you misunderstood. I saw you coming and wanted to go to the wood shop next door to borrow a bench for you to sit on."

She told lies without blinking an eye.

But the old man clearly wasn't fooled and snorted heavily.

Shen Ning continued to smile and glanced at the people around her with a somewhat vague look: "Are these all your relatives?"

"No," the old man shook his head and said, "They are all here to find you!"

"Looking for me?" Shen Ning was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly and said: "I don't know them, what are they looking for me for?"

She kept muttering in her mind.

If these people were really relatives of the old man who came to settle a score with her, one punch from each of them would make her walk away without food.

"Young lady, I'm here to tell your fortune!"

A big man held out his chest and belly, and said loudly and gruffly, his voice was like a bell, and it was very loud as soon as he opened his mouth.

"Yes, yes, you are a fortune teller. Uncle He said that you are very effective at measuring Chinese characters. Can you help me test Chinese characters?" said a middle-aged man who looked like a thin monkey.

"We have been waiting here for two days, and finally you, the fortune teller girl, showed up."

"Yes, fortune teller girl, please help us tell our fortunes!"

Everyone gathered around Shen Ning in the center, chattering and chattering.

“…”

Shen Ning couldn't help but rolled her eyes at God, feeling dumbfounded.

When I saw the menacing attitude of everyone just now, they didn't look like they were here to tell her fortune, but they clearly looked like they were looking for her life, which almost frightened her calf.

"Everyone of you, please wait a moment and let me have a few words with the fortune telling girl first."
