Villainess Wants To Turn Over A New Leaf-Chapter 349
The water was flowing downstream, so the boat lady put away the long pole and came over to pick up the animal. She said to herself, “Seems like I will eat some roasted egret tonight.”
Lin Feilu stood up abruptly and made her way to the boat lady. She said excitedly, “This heroine is very skilled! Dare I ask if the hero is an incognito martial artist in the area?! Where did this Master come from? A particular sect?”
The boat lady, with the egret in her hand, turned her head to look at the girl and said gloomily, “Hand over all your belongings! Otherwise, I will throw you into the river to feed the fish!”
Lin Feilu, “?”
Five minutes later, the boat lady was pushed to the ground by Xiaohei.
Lin Feilu, “You, go down to the river and feed the fish.”
The river bandit kicked the iron plate(2). She never thought that these two guards, who didn’t really seem to be that formidable, were actually so powerful. She repeatedly begged for mercy, “Honourable nobles, please spare my life! This boat is hard to control. If I’m thrown into the river, no one can take you to shore!”
(T/N: Kicking an iron plate would cause you pain, similarly, it means encountering an unfortunate situation even though it normally wouldn’t happen)
Lin Feilu too, thought about it for the same reason and instructed Xiaohei, “Keep an eye on her and escort her to the governing body after we get ashore.”
Lin Ting squatted aside and held the egret, looking a little sad. This boat lady was still a bit capable. The hidden weapon tied to the egret’s neck only showed itself slightly as the rest engraved itself deeply into the egret’s body. The animal’s life was impossible to save.
In the end, he could only sigh and throw the egret into the water.
He never thought that he would meet robbers on a boat, so he wasn’t sure if it was thanks to a stroke of good or bad luck.
Lin Feilu sighed, “I’ve completely woken up— this is not the martial arts world that I imagined at all.”
The only similarities were probably the ‘evil and sinister deeds over both river and land’…
Her excitement of entering the martial town for the first time had been completely destroyed. From now on, she would abandon the expectations she had from the martial arts novels she read since childhood and re-explore this strange copy of the world!
An hour later, the boat sailed to the Anchun Region.
Their surroundings were very lively as there were more boats on the river. The town on the shore was called Feifeng City. She heard that a certain generation’s Empress was from this city, but she didn’t know if those were merely baseless stories.
As soon as they landed, Xiaohei and Xiaobai tied up the boat lady and wanted to send her to the authorities.
This person was so skilled in the robbery business that they didn’t seem to know how many lives she had taken. According to the Great Lin Dynasty’s law, she should directly ask for the lady’s execution. But for some reason, the closer they got to the governing body, the more relaxed the lady’s expression became.
Lin Feilu originally planned to let Xiaohei send her there before going to the inn where they stayed. But upon seeing that expression, she decided that they would go along with her.
When they arrived at the local government office, the two officers at the door looked fierce and wicked. They held their sabres as if they were about to draw them at any time, “Who goes there?!”
