Chapter 1 Fraudulent
"Come on, catch the assassin—"

Following this extremely bright voice, the entire Longmen Inn was instantly lit up.

Hearing this, Gu Xiaolan paused, her instinctive reaction was that someone had spotted her, and she quickly pushed open a door next to her, turned around and got in.

"The few of you protect the young master, and everyone else searches for me in the inn. This assassin is bound to be found."

The voice of ordering came from a distance, followed by the sound of someone calling the door, and the voices of the tenants who were called out to vent their dissatisfaction.

Gu Xiaolan immediately understood that those people were more like putting on a show, just acting.

If it is really to catch an assassin, instead of treating the tenants like this, they will just break into the door.

Thinking that these people were not coming for her, the hanging heart gradually fell.

But right now, as a sneak into this inn to steal things, she must first escape the search.

He took off his heavy burden full of gold, silver and jewels from his back, and hid it under the bed instead.

As soon as the action fell, there was a hasty knock on the door.

"Is there anyone inside? The official is handling the case. Come and open the door quickly. If you don't come, we will just force our way in."

"Someone, come here."

Gu Xiaolan responded, before turning to light the oil lamp, she turned and went to open the door.

As soon as the door opened a crack, Gu Xiaolan felt a strong wind coming from behind her. When she realized it, she heard a scream in front of her. Immediately afterwards, the official who came to call the door had already fallen to the ground.

"Assassin, the assassin is here, come quickly." The official who came with him shouted loudly, and hurriedly took two steps back to avoid the oncoming attack.

"I'm not an assassin." Gu Xiaolan explained instinctively, and soon discovered the problem again.

She didn't kill the person in front of her, but the wound was caused by her position.

Thinking that there might be another person in this room, she couldn't help but feel a chill down her spine. She didn't feel anyone's presence in this room just now.

However, before she could make any movement, she was pushed from behind again.

Unsteady on her feet, she fell forward, and for some reason, she had an extra sword in her hand.

At this time, the sword directly pierced the heart of the officer who shouted loudly just now.

"I also said that I am not an assassin, and I have killed our two brothers. Brothers go together to avenge the dead brothers."

The officer next to him who saw this scene said coldly, and quickly pulled out his saber, attacking in Gu Xiaolan's direction vigorously.

Gu Xiaolan secretly thought that something was wrong, pulled out the long sword in his hand, and turned his head to look behind him.

She only vaguely felt a powerful cold aura flash past, and then she could no longer feel any aura fluctuations.

Looking at the big knife slashing straight towards her face, Gu Xiaolan knew that she was tricked today and became a scapegoat.

But now it's not about finding out who cheated her, but finding a way to save her life is the most important thing.

Holding the long sword in his hand tightly, he swung forward with all his strength, blocking the fatal blow.

Borrowing that ingenuity, he took two steps back.

Seeing that there were more and more officials gathered around who heard the shouts, Gu Xiaolan gritted her teeth with hatred.

She swears that after she finds out who the person who framed her just now is, if she doesn't beat that person until he doesn't even know his mother, she won't be Gu Xiaolan.

"Brother officials, it's really a misunderstanding. I didn't kill those two people..."

Gu Xiaolan was halfway through her explanation, but those besieging her didn't give her a chance to finish her sentence, and the officials who cooperated tacitly all came over with big knives in their hands.

Knowing that he was doomed today, Gu Xiaolan held the long sword in his hand, his eyes became as cold as ice in an instant.

In today's battle, she will either live or die.
