Chapter 18

The cock crows three times, and the white fish belly appears in the east.

The third butler performed a set of punches vigorously. In the past, his confidant butler had been waiting by his side for a long time, bringing tea, water and towels, and would have to praise him from the bottom of his heart. Today is strange, the cock crows.

Three times, I still haven't seen my close servant come, and I have a vague premonition in my heart.

"Xiaojiu, don't feed the horses yet. Go and call Lao Pi here. The old guy is getting more and more ignorant of the rules. Don't you know what day it is today?!"

"Yes, Third Master." Xiao Jiu hurriedly walked back, but was suddenly stopped by the third housekeeper again.

"Forget it, go ahead and do your work. We have to use these horses to pick up the nobles from Yuyao City today, so we can't be careless."

"Yes, Third Master."

The third housekeeper said yes and ran to the courtyard.

There are five side rooms built side by side in the courtyard for the accommodation of servants in the outer courtyard. The three rooms in the middle have bunks and are common residences for servants. The one in the back is exclusively used by the servants, Lao Pi, and the one on the outside is a shabby small room.

The wing room is occupied by Lin Chuan and Manu Xiaojiu.

When the third housekeeper passed by the dilapidated wing on the outside, he looked at the ajar door. It was empty inside, and then walked inside again.

"Third Master!"

"Third Master!"

"Third Master!..."

Servants came out of the three rooms in the middle one after another and greeted the third butler, but the third butler did not respond. He walked straight to the innermost room, pushed the door without moving, and used hard force with his hands, and the wooden pin inside the door broke with a "click" sound.

There was dead silence inside the door. If there was such a big movement, someone inside would definitely respond.

The third housekeeper's gloomy little eyes scanned the entire room, and finally fixed his gaze on the bed.

The servant Lao Pi had his head covered, revealing the sparse hair on his head, which proved that he was right.

The third housekeeper felt his heart pounding violently. First he slowly lifted the quilt, and then he lifted it suddenly as if he mustered up the courage. Still, he was so startled that he took a few steps back.

I saw that the two eyes of the servant Lao Pi were about to bulge out, and they had lost their luster. His mouth was opened wide, his tongue extended to his chin, his throat was soft, and there were two bruises on both sides.

As a master of martial arts, the third housekeeper naturally knew how Lao Pi died. The murderer sneaked into the house while he was sleeping and crushed his throat bone in an instant. Poor Lao Pi died before he could even struggle to make a sound.

The third butler felt his throat was itchy and couldn't help but cough violently. His temples were pounding. The hard skills in Ding Lao Pi's hands were no weaker than his own. If he could be killed instantly, he must be an unusual person. The third butler's eyes flashed.

, determined that the murderer was Lin Chuan, the only spiritual master in the courtyard.

However, today the Jia family is worshiping their ancestors. It would be unlucky to do something like this. If his employer finds out about it, he will inevitably be punished by his employer, regardless of whether it has anything to do with him or not.

After thinking about it, the third housekeeper covered Lao Pi with a quilt, closed the door again, and bolted the door from the outside.

As soon as he turned around, he was bumped into by a boy. The third housekeeper pushed him away and scolded: "Why are you so nervous!"

"I'm sorry, Third Master, I was too reckless. I came to see Brother Pi to ask about the arrangement in front of the mansion." The boy explained hurriedly.

"Lao Pi went shopping outside the house. If you have anything to do here, just tell me."

"Hmm?!" Seeing the boy's confused look, the third housekeeper hummed heavily.

"Yes, Third Master. The decoration in front of the house has been made according to Brother Pi's request. I would like to ask Third Master to come over and check to see if there are any omissions." The young man said to his heart, "Oh my god."

I was busy in front of the house before dawn. Why didn't I see Brother Pi go out?

After finishing the business in front of the mansion, the third housekeeper quietly slipped into the garden and saw Lin Chuan carefully picking up the fallen flowers and leaves, as if he was unaware of his arrival.

"Who are you? What do you want?" The third housekeeper asked in a deep voice behind Lin Chuan.

"Returning to the third master, the younger one is Ah Chuan, the flower slave of the Jia family." Lin Chuan turned around and looked at the third housekeeper with a gloomy expression in surprise.

"Did you kill Lao Pi!?" the third housekeeper asked in a low voice.

"Brother Pi is dead?!" The look of shock on Lin Chuan's face didn't seem to be fake.

"Don't be pretentious in front of me. I've eaten more salt than you have ever eaten. How much did you hear last night?" The third housekeeper's face was so gloomy that he seemed to be dripping with water.

"Third Master, please don't accuse me unjustly. Brother Pi has no enmity with me, so why should I harm him? He stayed in the house sleeping last night and didn't go anywhere. Brother Jiu can testify.

"Lin Chuan did not shy away from the vicious gaze of the third housekeeper.

They were silent for a while, and the two just looked at each other.

"Third Master! Third Master! The nobles of Yuyao City have arrived at the gate of the city. My boss wants you to come over." A boy ran outside the garden gate and shouted.

"You'd better be more honest with me today! Otherwise...hum!" the third housekeeper said harshly and left in a hurry.

Lin Chuan moved his fingertips, and a flower bone was cut off by him. It was the first time he killed a living person with his own hands, and it was impossible not to panic in his heart. But some people deserved to be killed, even if he and Wan'er escaped, such people

If you stay in this world, you will continue to harm other people.

Lin Chuan was waiting for an opportunity, waiting for the noble people from Yuyao City they said to come into the house, causing them some trouble, and then took advantage of the chaos to find Qiao Waner and escape from Licheng.

"Dong dong dong!" Three gongs sounded, and Lin Chuan stood with his head bowed, but his eyes glanced outside the door.

The third housekeeper jumped into the threshold like a monkey and personally placed wooden ladders on both sides of the threshold. He grinned in an exaggerated way, as if he was seeing a fairy.

A moment later, a gold embroidered shoe inlaid with colorful gems appeared on the wooden ladder.

The embroidered shoes are no more than three inches, and thin silk stockings are exposed at the ankles, and the fair and tender skin can be vaguely seen. Above it is a silver silk palace skirt, and a seven-color brocade woven belt is tied around the waist that can be grasped, hanging at the waist.

Wearing an exquisite sachet, under which hangs seven Buddhist beads, a three-inch mutton-fat white jade Ruyi is played with in her slender jade hands, a pair of emerald green bracelets are worn on her bright wrists, and her slender white jade neck is surrounded by slender and delicate rings.

Gold chain, extremely bright makeup, a cloud bun on the top of her head, twelve phoenix-wing wooden hairpins, the tails of which are all inlaid with large blue turquoise stones.

The graceful and noble lady here must be the noble lady from Yuyao City that they said.

"Greetings to Concubine Concubine! Concubine Concubine Concubine is a thousand years old!"

Everyone in the courtyard fell to their knees and shouted in unison. Lin Chuan also followed suit, but he supported the ground with his hands and bent his knees but did not touch the ground.

Lin Chuanxin asked, when did the second uncle, who had never been a womanizer, take such a beautiful concubine? Could it be that the second uncle has changed his temper and no longer loves gold, silver, and red makeup.

When the three-inch multicolored embroidered gold shoes came to Lin Chuan's side, they suddenly stopped.

"Is this a member of the Jia family?" The voice was extremely soft and charming, even worse than Hua Ran who had harmed the country and the people.
