Chapter 6 Night Attack

Master Ma is a smart man. He hasn't mentioned anything about what happened last night since the two of them walked out of the princess palace. Since Lu Yang didn't explain much about what happened last night, why should he ask for it?

Why bother talking about such embarrassing things again?

Since Lu Yang was able to walk out of the princess's palace alive, it means that Lu Yang has gained the trust of the princess. Not only that, Lu Yang also received a reward from the princess personally. This is obviously Lu Yang's decision after what happened last night.

First class credit!

Master Ma guessed that the reward Lu Yang, who earned ten taels of gold from his first move, would definitely not be less than fifty taels of gold! Such a generous reward was unprecedented in Jinchan County!

Lu Yang, who had just gained favor from the princess, could obviously take advantage of this momentum to retaliate against his rude behavior last night, but Lu Yang did not do so. Instead, he gave him part of the bounty.

This is enough to show that Lu Yang's magnanimity is absolutely unmatched by ordinary people.

Touching the gold in his pocket, Master Ma felt that the more he looked at Lu Yang, the more he liked him. Could it be called Lu Yang's appearance? That could be called graceful, you know! Master Ma felt that except when he was young, there were few people nowadays.

Such a graceful man as Lu Yang!

"The whole Princess's Palace won't be so dark, right?" Lu Yang is still not used to the environment in this Princess's Palace. If possible, he would like to live in an inn outside. After all, he just got the Princess.

With the reward, he no longer has to worry about his food and accommodation for the time being.

Master Ma seemed to hear the meaning of Lu Yang's words. He just heard him sigh and said: "You have also heard that the princess's eye disease has not recovered yet, so there is basically no light in the princess's palace.

place;

There has been some instability in our county in the past six months, because people are missing here every night, so the princess has no choice but to issue a ban. It is really uneasy for you to live in an inn outside!"

"So that's it." Lu Yang nodded and replied lightly.

What surprised Master Ma was that Lu Yang seemed to be completely uninterested in this matter! It was obvious that he deliberately revealed so much information to him, but Lu Yang didn't express any thoughts at all!

Master Ma originally thought that Lu Yang, who was appreciated by the princess, had to have a lot of skills, and he might be able to see some clues about the strange things in their county. It seemed that this idea was just wishful thinking on his part...

This man of unknown origin has always made people feel elusive. Master Ma did not say much about the things in the city. After settling Lu Yang's residence, Master Ma exchanged pleasantries with Lu Yang.

After saying this, he left knowingly.

After spending a whole night outside, Lu Yang finally felt a little calmer. He had just traveled to this world and experienced so many things without knowing anything. A normal person would already be exhausted.

However, Lu Yang did not go directly to rest. After Master Ma had gone away, Lu Yang walked back to the door, gently opened the door and looked at the situation around his room——

The room Master Ma arranged for him was at the end of the corridor of the Princess's Mansion. The wall on the left hand side had been nailed with wooden boards, presumably to prevent sunlight from entering.

On Lu Yang's right hand side is a deep corridor illuminated by weak candlelight. The visible distance is no more than three meters. The doors of the nearby rooms are all closed, and they do not look like they are inhabited.

Master Ma arranged for him to be in such a remote place, maybe to prevent him from disturbing the princess, or maybe he was still wary of him to prevent him from having unfavorable thoughts about the princess and approaching the princess without permission.

In any case, Master Ma is indeed a competent master, and his thoughts are quite delicate.

Unfortunately, what Master Ma didn't expect was that Lu Yang had already carefully walked him a few steps on the way here, and he clearly remembered where he turned!

As the saying goes, it is necessary to be on guard against others. Lu Yang also had to think about his own safety. At least he could find the right route when he encountered danger and wanted to escape.

As for not answering Master Ma's words seriously just now, Lu Yang could only feel deeply sorry in his heart.

After returning to the room, Lu Yang used flint to light the candle lamp on the table and repeatedly picked the wick. The light in the room finally became brighter.

Lu Yang looked around the room, and as expected, the window in front of the bedside of the room he lived in was also nailed shut, preventing sunlight from entering at all.

"Let's change it a little bit." Lu Yang said to himself. After all, he had to live here for a while. If he kept living in such a claustrophobic environment, he would indeed feel a little uncomfortable.

Lu Yang picked up the flint in his hand and drilled into the corner of the window. After a while, a fist-sized hole was drilled in the window. Although the hole was not big, the sunlight that came in was enough to illuminate the room.

.

After blowing out the candles on the table, Lu Yang finally lay on the bed. It was noon when he traveled through time, and he had been struggling all night. If the time was converted to his own world, it would be almost night now.

.

Lying on the bed and basking in the sun, Lu Yang fell asleep quickly.

In his sleep, what happened last night was replayed piecemeal in Lu Yang's mind. But what puzzled Lu Yang was that the purpose of the princess's nighttime ban was not to prevent the common people.

Going "missing" after being out at night?

But listening to the meaning of Master Ma's words, in the past six months, except for last night, I don't know if anyone disappeared, there are still cases of people disappearing for no reason at other times.

In other words, even if people hide at home at night, it is still inevitable that someone will go missing!

Based on Lu Yang's current understanding of the princess and her intelligence, how could she still implement the ban that cannot solve the problem but only serves to deter people from going out at night?

Apart from the possibility of mitigating the seriousness of the situation, Lu Yang really couldn't think of any other reason, but for some reason, Lu Yang always felt that there was something unspeakable...

Maybe it was because he was too tired. When Lu Yang woke up, it was late at night again. The hunger in his stomach instantly swept through his body. He just wanted to go out and find something to eat.

But the moment Lu Yang opened his eyes in a daze, he was so shocked by the scene in front of him that he lost all sleep!
