The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket! novel Chapter 847

Chapter 847: Chapter 742, Trampling on Human Lives_2

The old man looked at Daohua as if she were an inanimate object, "Even if you could grow it, there isn’t enough time." Saying so, he exited the woodshed with the help of a man.

When the people left the room, Prince Ping and Huai En finally snapped back to reality.

Prince Ping roared furiously, "You have quite the nerve, daring to trample over human lives!!!"

The man walking last sneered at the three with Daohua, "You ruined the flowers we were presenting to the noble; you deserve to die."

Huai En shouted, "I’m telling you, don’t get too arrogant; we have connections too."

Hearing this, the man scoffed, "So what if there are officials in your family? Could they possibly be more influential than the nobles we serve? Rest assured, we will make your deaths undetectable."

After he spoke, he turned around, left the woodshed, and closed the door behind him.

"This is outrageous, absolutely outrageous!"

"What’s the background of these country bumpkins?"

Prince Ping was extremely angry, first because those people were planning to drown him, and second because of their arrogance!

To those people, three human lives were worth less than a pot of flowers!

Daohua had recovered from her initial disbelief, ignoring the shouting two. After recognizing the intent to kill in the old man’s eyes, she moved her tied hands behind her back and quickly cut the ropes with a blade she had taken from her space.

She had heard that in the countryside, some clans set up their own courts, where the clan leader and clan elders wielded more authority than even the County Magistrate, easily deciding the life and death of clan members.

Still, to demand their lives over a pot of flowers seemed utterly absurd to her.

Could it be that she had been washed out of Beijing’s jurisdiction by the river?

Otherwise, under the Emperor’s very nose, who would dare to be so bold?

As she was engulfed by chaotic thoughts, the rope snapped.

Daohua glanced at the now silent and desperately self-saving master and servant, quietly stood up, and walked to the door to listen to the noise outside.

"Hey~"

"Hey, young master, help us!"

Huai En called out to Daohua in a low voice.

Daohua turned back to glance at the two, thought for a moment, and still went over to untie them. However, before she did, she warned, "Once we’re out, you must not make any noise at your own will. If we get discovered, expect to be drowned in the pond!"

Huai En quickly nodded, and even Prince Ping, in this moment, let go of his pride and nodded.

After freeing the two, Daohua quickly said, "There are five or six people in the courtyard; we must escape before others arrive. We’ll rush out together soon and knock them down as quickly as possible."

Huai En frowned immediately, "But neither my master nor I know martial arts!"

When all the men in the courtyard were down, Daohua ran to the gate to look outside, saw people talking, washing clothes, and resting under trees, knew they couldn’t exit through the front, and decisively ran towards the back door.

Most farmyards were built similarly, Daohua quickly found the back door and furtively ran out through it.

Behind her, Prince Ping and Huai En were following.

She didn’t say anything, just ran swiftly forward and soon put some distance between herself and the two.

Just after the three had escaped from the yard, someone discovered they were gone.

"Damn it, those three have run away!"

Seeing people from the village picking up hoes and other farming tools and chasing after them, Daohua ran even faster, as did Prince Ping, who, supported by Huai En, was panting heavily.

Unfamiliar with the roads here and worried about being blocked by residents of other villages, Daohua directly ran towards the mountains.

Once inside the dense mountain bushes, Daohua turned back and saw that Prince Ping and Huai En were about to be caught by the group of villagers. After a moment’s thought, she took out her slingshot and loaded it with Numbness Pellets and shot them out.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Anyone hit by the Numbness Pellets collapsed limply.

Slowly, the villagers no longer dared pursue.

This gave Prince Ping and Huai En some time to escape, and shortly after, they also ran into the mountains.
