Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
When Yuan Shanchuan heard that the salary was generous, he was tempted. Although he didn’t have a martial arts base like those bodyguards, he was still fit and strong. He was also a suitable candidate to help transport the goods. The other party was in a hurry. Yuan Shanchuan originally wanted to look for people in the county town who were from the same village or knew each other to help pass a message to his family.
Unfortunately, he didn’t meet any familiar faces, and the other party had no time to wait for him. So, he could only leave the city first.
In any case, according to the distance, they would be back in about ten days. He had told his family that it might be delayed for a few days if he encountered other work.
Who knew that this delay would last for more than a month?
Yuan Shanchuan still had a lingering fear when he recalled the thrilling experience of those days.
“After we left the county town, we walked for two days. We didn’t make it to the hotel that night, so we camped in the wild. I didn’t expect to be ambushed. I was lucky and went to the forest to relieve myself. When I returned, I saw three to four men in black fighting. My bodyguard friend was sent flying by the kick and crashed heavily onto the ground. He was only three steps away from me and was on the verge of death.”
That was his friend. Although Yuan Shanchuan was scared to death, he still sneaked up and wanted to drag him into the forest under the cover of the dark to save him.
However, the bodyguard grabbed him and told him that there was a very important item among the goods they were transporting this time. It was a painting. Inside it was an important file that concerned the safety of the entire
Jiangyuan County. It was in the second carriage. The bodyguard told him to find it and return to the city to hand it over to the county magistrate and not let it be snatched away.
Yuan Shanchuan wanted to ask more questions, but the bodyguard couldn’t hold on any longer. He let go of his hand and died.
Yuan Shanchuan was so anxious at that time that he felt it was a problem he couldn’t handle.
However, he was held back by the bodyguard’s words about the safety of the people of Jiangyuan County. He could not leave, no matter what.
The citizens of Jiangyuan County included him, his wife, and his entire family.
However, he was just a nobody. How could he have the ability to bear such a heavy burden?
Yuan Shanchuan wanted to run, but he couldn’t move.
At this moment, another bodyguard was killed.
Originally, there were only five people on their team. There were three escorts and two ordinary people with no martial arts skills. One of them was Yuan Shanchuan.
Now that the two skilled escorts were dead, the only people who were still resisting were the last escort. The ordinary citizen was so scared that he turned around and ran.
The remaining bodyguard saw that the person had run away. He was no match for the three of them at all. He gritted his teeth and turned around to run away.
Two bodyguards were dead. One bodyguard and one commoner had run away. The remaining Yuan Shanchuan hid behind the forest, not daring to move.
The three carjackers didn’t continue chasing. They searched the carriages for what they were looking for.
Yuan Shanchuan held his breath and looked at the painting. The painting was hidden well, but the three robbers found it after a while.
However, just as they were about to leave with the painting, another group appeared and snatched it away.
The two sides started fighting again. The scene was very chaotic. The two sides almost moved to Yuan Shanchuan’s side.
At this moment, the painting coincidentally fell not far from Yuan Shanchuan, within reach..
