Gesar City, the southern gateway to Gyeonggi Province.

Rose disembarked from a long carriage carrying a light suitcase, and at this time she was dressed as a handsome young man.

Because of her amazing makeup skills, coupled with her super ability to imitate, her behavior and deliberate male voice at the moment make her look flawless.

The only downside to this outfit is that she was harassed and flattered by two female passengers along the way.

As a killer, every time he goes to a new place, Luo Cong instinctively observes the terrain and architecture of this strange place, as well as suspicious people and things.

This kind of caution has benefited her immensely, so she is very grateful for the strict training that the sage has given her back then, although she does not want to reminisce about that time.

The small city of Gesar thrived on transportation, and a canal traveled 500 kilometers south from here to the Longjiang River valley in the central hinterland of the empire.

Because of this convenience of transportation, commerce here is quite developed, and goods from the north and south are traded and distributed here, and then transported to all parts of the country, and at the same time, merchants and tourists who are in the south and north meet here.

Rose got off at the canal pier and was ready to take a boat south. It's a mixed bag, and it's also a place where local gangsters look for lambs from outside the country to earn their lumps.

Within ten minutes of her getting out of the car and buying a loaf of bread to eat, she had witnessed several thefts, but one of them was a mistake when the vigilant traveller was besieged by his fellow thieves and ransacked.

"Stop!"

In the commotion, a man dressed as a young man ran ahead, but his long stray blond hair and running posture indicated that he was a girl.

The girl was very embarrassed, out of breath, very flustered and helpless. Chasing after him were a few rough men, who didn't look like good people.

Rose turned and stood in the middle of the road, and the girl, seeing that Rose was in front of her, instinctively went around behind her, grabbed Rose's coat, and said in a voice trembling with fear:

"Sir, help me, they are scoundrels, scoundrels, robbers!"

A total of five people surrounded Rose and the girl who asked her for help, and their faces were not good.

"Young man, get acquainted, get as far as you want!" shouted the meaty-faced guy at the head.

"This girl thinks you are not good people, and now she is under my protection. "Luo Cong is not afraid.

"Stranger, listen to my advice and get out of here. The last foreigner who didn't listen to my advice was thrown into the canal to feed the fish, and the other was used as fertilizer, which one do you choose?"

The leader deliberately opened the neckline of the shirt to expose the developed chest muscles.

Rose glanced not far away, a man in a patrol uniform flirting with a female grocery store clerk.

The patrolman hadn't even noticed it, or had seen it but didn't want to meddle.

"What if I don't listen to advice?" asked Rose.

"Then I can only say that I regret it. The leader smirked and took a few steps forward, then reached out and grabbed the girl's arm.

Rose kicked out with lightning speed, hitting the crotch of the gangsters led by him, and the strong man immediately clutched his crotch and fell down in pain.

Almost as soon as she hit the other party, Rose stepped on the man's shoulder and jumped up, her body was light and extremely flexible, and she kicked the left guy in the temple with a volley, and the guy was defenseless and fainted on the spot under the heavy blow.

The other three guys, two of them standing closest to each other, rushed at Rose from left to right.

Rose suddenly crouched down, and a dagger appeared in her hand. With a slight stroke, the dagger cut the belly of the man on the right, who let out a scream like a pig, and the other stood alive, then turned and fled.

As for the fifth gangster, he was completely stupid on the spot.

Before the crowd could react, Rose rushed to the dock with a light suitcase in one hand and the poor girl's hand in the other, and then jumped onto a passenger ship that was about to depart.

"I'm sorry, guest, we're out of tickets and there are no seats on board!" the ticket clerk shouted dissatisfied, and Rose had almost knocked him into the canal.

Rose directly threw a small bag of gold coins to the other party, and the other party glanced at it quickly, and immediately said with a smile:

"Sir, you are in luck, we also have a luxurious private room with free fine food and the best service, please come with me!"

After settling in the private room, Rose looked at the girl she had saved.

She was curious why the other party was dressed as a man, but as long as the eyesight was not too bad, she could see through it at a glance.

"Ma'am, what's going on?" said Rose, a little hoarse in a young man's voice.

The girl who almost fell into the hands of the gang is none other than Princess Elizabeth.

She was so naïve, she used to sneak out of the palace disguised as a man, and she thought it was the same elsewhere.

The reason why she fled the palace was to resist marriage, apparently she watched too much, and the heroines in the stories usually have a happy ending.

She just wanted to get as far away from the palace as possible.

But she didn't expect that as soon as she left the realm of the Holy City, the small suitcase she was carrying was stolen by thieves, including the gold and silver coins she carried.

When she finally arrived in Gesar City, she had to take out a necklace inside her men's shirt and wanted to exchange it for money, but she didn't know the secret of not revealing her wealth when she went out.

The gangster set their sights on her, and when they saw her disguised as a man, they couldn't hide their amazing beauty, and they were even more interested.

Luckily, she met Rose, otherwise she would have ended badly.

Of course, out of an abundance of caution, she lied: "My father didn't care about me, but my mother wanted to sell me to a brothel, so I escaped." Sir, you are such a good man, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have been bullied by those hooligans. ”

It's also a shame that she knows what brothels do. However, if her father and brother knew that she said this, they would have fainted.

Rose glanced at her white and tender hands and smiled softly:

"Oh, beautiful young lady, may I ask your name?"

"Ellie, Ellie Humphreys. Can I know your name?" asked Elizabeth, the heroine name of Elle Humphreys, the heroine of a film she had seen, known for being independent, self-reliant, and outspoken.

"You can just call me Rose. Rose said.

"Oh, Rose, thank you again!" said Elizabeth, who now admired Rose so much, not knowing that she was also a girl.

In the eyes of the princess in distress, Rose is the embodiment of justice and strength, handsome, chic, and elegant in conversation, which is completely in line with her vision of happiness.

"Miss Humphreys, where are you going?" asked Rose.

"What about you, sir?" asked Elizabeth rhetorically.

"Genoa, Poitou!" said Rose.

Elizabeth immediately rejoiced: "Poitou, go together, go together!"

"Poitou is in the south and it's at least a 20 day journey from here. "If you don't mind, I can give you a sum of money so that you can hire a transport back home." ”

Rose didn't believe Elizabeth's self-introduction at all, and in a few words she figured out that the other party was just a spoiled child.

"But I do have a friend in Poitou, and he is a count, and he will protect me!" said Elizabeth.

"Oh, which earl?" said Rose, startled.

"Sean Connery, you must know him. Elizabeth said proudly, suddenly a little discouraged, "My father has hurt him recently because of an incident, and I don't know if he will take me in. ”

Rose's face changed and changed, "Your name is indeed Ellie Humphreys?"

"Of course, God can bear witness!" Elizabeth nodded heavily, but her ears turned red from lying "seriously" again.

"Hehe, I believe in you. Rose laughed suddenly.

"Will you take me to Poitou, including the expenses on the road, and the necessary protection, Count Ross Connelly, who is powerful and rich in Poitou, and I can assure you that he will compensate you generously!"

Elizabeth asked with an earnest face, and was tempted by the way.

In fact, she never thought of going to the far-flung Poitou, and after running away from home, she was curious to play along the way, tasting the food, but now she is penniless and almost caught by the gang, and when she hears Rose mention Poitou, she takes Poitou as her lifeline.

Well, I haven't seen the legendary south yet. Elizabeth thought so.

"Beautiful young lady, since you are a friend of Count Connery, of course I am willing to serve you. I believe that the rich and generous earl will not treat me badly. Rose laughed.

"You have made a wise decision!" said Elizabeth, "a righteous gentleman like you must have a story!"

Elizabeth's state of mind seemed comical to Rose, who was afraid that Rose would dump her.

"Of course, I love to travel. "Actually, traveling is like reading a book, you never know what the next stop will be or what kind of people you will meet on the way......"

Rose is like an all-encompassing encyclopedia, deliberately showing her erudition but not being sophisticated, coupled with her well-informed and fascinating words, which immediately captured Elizabeth's "heart".

Elizabeth grew up in the deep palace, was not deeply involved in the world, and was unsuspecting of people who had a good impression, not to mention that Rose had a life-saving grace for her, and she instinctively trusted Rose.

Rose, on the other hand, has no guilt for kidnapping a princess.

If she could, Rose would love to make the High Being of the Holy City anxious for a few more days.

This trip was nothing for Rose, although it was also tiring.

Elizabeth was very excited and energetic along the way, curious about everything, and made a lot of jokes.

But at least because of Elizabeth's presence, Rose's journey is less lonely and monotonous.

She could imagine that Sean would be shocked to see that she had kidnapped a princess.
