The melons and fruits that fell from the sky were light or heavy, big or small. Some people who were more lucky just had their heads smashed, while those who were unlucky had their heads smashed on the spot and fell to the ground covered in blood.
"ah--"
"Killed!"
"Where do all these fruits come from?"
Screams and screams suddenly sounded from all directions, and everyone ran away with their heads in their hands.
The streets, which were originally bustling with people, were in chaos.
Even many carriages passing by were affected. Fruits and melons hit the roofs of the carriages with a "bang bang!" sound, and the coachmen were so frightened that they quickly reined in their horses.
"Hush!"
The neighing of the horses was mixed with screaming, and it was chaotic for a while.
Zhan Beihan's carriage was parked on the roadside.
Fortunately, he was not hit by the fruit, but the driver was also startled: "What's going on?"
"Melons and fruits are actually falling from the sky?!"
Zhan Beihan, who was resting with his eyes closed in the car, heard some movement, frowned, and reached out to push open the window.
At a glance, he saw that the street was full of people fleeing in panic. Xiao Lingyue stood alone in front of the preserve shop, frowning and looking not far away.
"What is this!"
The proprietress of the preserve store was so frightened that she couldn't stop patting her chest. She was anxious and distressed when she saw that all the customers in front of the store were scared away.
Suddenly, she found Xiao Lingyue still standing at the door. The kind-hearted landlady said quickly: "Girl, come in and hide! Be careful of being hit."
Xiao Lingyue turned around and smiled: "Thank you, I won't need it."
At the other end of the street, noises continued to be heard.
The people were so frightened that they didn't dare to get close. They hid in the corners and looked at the rotten fruits and melons all over the ground in shock.
"Who did this?"
"You dare to throw such a big melon around, you'll kill someone!"
"Go and report to the Yamen!"
In addition to fruits and melons, there were also many innocent passers-by who were injured.
Someone's head was covered in blood.
Some people's noses were broken.
Some people accidentally sprained their feet while running and were sitting on the ground in fear.
Wails and screams continued.
Smart people rushed to the Yamen to report the crime.
Xiao Lingyue stood there without moving.
At this moment, she suddenly heard a woman's voice: "Chu Yuanqi, stop for me!"
Immediately afterwards, the sound of crackling whips came.
Xiao Lingyue followed the sound and saw two figures on the street ahead, one chasing and the other running away, hurriedly approaching.
The man running in front was so angry that he used Qinggong to hide and run, shouting: "Cui Minjun, you crazy woman! Have you had enough trouble?!"
Xiao Lingyue's eyes flashed with astonishment.
This person is none other than Chu Yuanqi, the young prince of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion.
Following closely behind him was a young girl of 17 or 18 years old dressed in fiery red. She held a long black whip in her hand and whipped Chu Yuanqi's back hard with the whip.
"You stop, Miss! Why are you running? Will I eat you?!"
There was a whirring sound of whips.
Chu Yuanqi heard the sound and immediately turned around to hide. This chapter has been completed!
