While Liu Mo was rushing from the Cyan Plains to the capital, Xiaoli was also hiring a carriage from the Yi Province's Tai Ji Manor with her sister, Chou Chou, to return to the capital.
A month ago, a family extermination case had occurred in Yizhou, involving twelve people. After five days of fruitless investigation, the governor of Yizhou along with his guards had finally tidied up the case and submitted a letter to the imperial government, seeking help from the capital.
Xiaoli, who was over seventeen years old, was currently working in the Zhenge Sect. After receiving the case, Rong Ling discussed with Liu Wei for a while before she assigned two troops to work with Xiaoli on this case.
Ugwu had thought that his elder brother would go back without stopping. Seeing him suddenly stay in the other prefectures, he curiously asked why. small
Li said, "Mother's present hasn't been prepared yet." ugliness
Chou smacked his forehead and said, "I forgot. What are we giving them?" small
Li was also pondering about it. Her mother did not lack anything, and the only thing she liked were a few rare medicinal herbs, similar to the Western Mountains, which were abundant in resources. There were also a few large scale medicine markets in the same prefecture, and Xiaoli had specially come to the same prefecture to see if he could come across any good medicinal herbs, so that he could present them to his mother as birthday presents.
On the first day he arrived at the other prefectures, it was already noon. Xiaoli had already left to go to the market.
On the way, she wanted to eat whatever she saw. Xiaoli had also gotten used to her, so she would buy whatever she wanted.
Finally, Ugly bought two big bags of snacks and a roasted corn gnaw.
The roasted corn was fragrant, it was smeared with the owner's exclusive sauce, it was extremely delicious, and Chou Chou ate until his mouth was blurry. Xiaoli looked at the medicine stand on the street later and had to turn around to wipe his sister's mouth.
Look at how old you are, still treating yourself like a child. ugliness
The ugly man raised his right hand and said, "In my sleeve."
Xiaoli took out her handkerchief and held it in her hand to wipe it clean. ugliness
Chou casually replied. Then, his eyes shifted to a bakery as she passed by. She called out, "Brother!" small
The big man bought her another toasted sugar cake, and as he was paying for it, someone passed behind him and bumped into him.
He turned around and saw an eighty-year-old grandma flop to the ground at his feet, yelling, "Ouch, who's blind to walk around blindly and kill her?"
Xiaoli extended her hand to help the old lady up, and the old granny staggered with great difficulty to stand up straight, apologized to Xiaoli, and then walked towards the other side.
Xiaoli turned around and continued to pay for the candy. When she turned his head, he found that someone was missing. ugliness
Where was the ugliness? ugliness
Chou was carrying a snack in one hand and a roasted corn in the other. A tall woman was running down the alleyway with her mouth stuffed into her mouth. ugliness
Ugly didn't struggle. He only blinked his eyes, as if he was confused about his current situation. High
"The woman turned and turned, leading the way to a dilapidated courtyard. Outside of the courtyard were two grown men, who were talking to each other. When they saw the woman return, they were stunned."
Didn't you say that you need to keep a low profile these past two days? It's just a matter of time and you have quite the guts. "
The woman put down the ugly woman, turned around, and closed the courtyard door. She maliciously said, "It's fine, she's from outside. Look at her clothes, she's a fat sheep." Then …
Sure enough, the two grown men sized up Ugly. One of them even reached out to pick up her face.
The ugly man took half a step back and looked at him warily.
The man snorted and said, "You really are an outsider. Just by this appearance, we can't raise any from the other provinces. However, we've been doing a lot of public surveillance recently, so there won't be any trouble, right?"
"Nope." The woman said confidently, "I've followed them all the way. There were only two of them, like siblings. Don't worry, that young man is pretty. At most, he's just reporting to the government. What else can they do?"
The man nodded, "Alright then, we'll lock her up first. After three days, there will be someone who will come to see her." woman
He took away all the food in the hands of the ugly woman and pushed her shoulders roughly. "Come on, let's go in."
The ugly man staggered under her push and staggered inwards.
The cellar was dark and still smelly. The ugly man stood at the door, barely able to see through the light streaming through the cracks in the door. ground
There were a few other people in the cellar, both men and women. Their faces were dirty and they were miserably curled up in the corners. ugliness
The ugly man hesitantly took two steps forward. However, he failed to clearly see what was beneath his feet. He stumbled and fell.
She took a closer look and smelled the blood, only to realize that it was dirty blood. She lowered her head and looked at the ground, only to realize that she had tripped over a person's leg, which was lying at the bottom of the cellar stairs. If she looked further, she would see that it was a person, a person who had already lost his breath and died in the middle of the road. ugliness
Chou remained motionless where she was. She first looked at the dead body, then at the boy and girl in the corner. She opened her mouth and spit out three words … "Hello everyone."
No one answered her. There were two timid girls who started to cry because of her sudden speech.
Ugly wiped the blood from his hands on his shirt, then tentatively moved over to the others. nodule
As soon as she came over, she was stopped by a young man with a disheveled appearance. The young man lifted the wooden stick, his body trembling as he threatened her with, "Don't come over, you're not allowed to come over here!" ugliness
Chou could only stop in his tracks and look at him.
The youth didn't know why he had to stop her. He was very scared and very sensitive, and now, no matter who entered, he would go on a rampage. He didn't want anyone near him …
