Lu Xiaofeng huddled in the corner, not letting anyone touch her, trembling all over, shouting "Don't come here"...
The maids of the Hou Mansion did not dare to approach him, so they could only squat in the distance to console him.
"Brother Xu..." Lu Mingyue said to Xu Zun with tears in her eyes, "Look, she has been like this these past few days. Several doctors have been called to see her, and they all said that she was too frightened and could only rely on decoction and medicine to slow her down.
Take care of yourself slowly, even Daoist Master Wei can't do anything about it..."
"Tsk tsk..."
Seeing Lu Xiaofeng's appearance, Xu Zun also felt deep sympathy. The poor girl was only fifteen years old and suffered such a misfortune. It was really a human tragedy.
"Don't be too anxious," Xu Zun advised, "just calm down slowly!"
"Well, I have already called the sisters from the college," Lu Mingyue said, "We took turns to comfort her, hoping that she would get better soon...
"It's just that I promised my eldest brother to drink wine, but I'm afraid I have to wait until later!"
"Ahem, what time has it been? That's all Brother was joking with you!" Xu Zun advised, "Anyway, Xiaofeng saved a life. I will definitely find a way to find out the ins and outs of Chongtian Temple and find out
Her family member!"
"Well..." Lu Mingyue wiped away her tears, her big eyes were lively and very beautiful.
"My lord...my lord..."
At this moment, a person walked quickly from another room, it was the Yuanzhou girl Timur Ani.
In recent days, because Xu Zun was busy investigating the case, he sent this girl Ani to the Hou Mansion to recuperate.
The reason why I chose Hou Mansion was out of helplessness.
It is really inappropriate for such a beautiful little girl to be placed in a county government office.
The county government is full of rough people and cannot take care of them carefully.
It would be unreasonable to send her to the inn, and I would not worry about it. After all, this little girl is a key witness and there is a risk that something might happen.
In desperation, Xu Zun asked Lu Mingyue to help and let this girl Ani temporarily live in the Hou Mansion and take care of her together with Lu Xiaofeng.
Unlike Lu Xiaofeng, Ani recovered relatively quickly and was almost fine. When she heard where Xu Zun was, she immediately came to meet him.
"grown ups!"
Unexpectedly, this Ani would kneel down to Xu Zun as soon as they met and wanted to kowtow.
"Hey?" Xu Zun quickly stopped, helped the little girl up, and asked, "Miss Ani, what are you doing?"
"Sir..." Ani begged, "Please don't send me away!"
While helping him, Xu Zun was once again attracted by the girl's amazing appearance. Now that the sun was shining brightly, he could see it more clearly.
This girl was like a fairy descending from the earth, unlike anything in the world. Her soft and graceful body and impeccable appearance made Xu Zun deeply attracted after just one glance...
Puff, puff...
Xu Zun felt that he had not had this kind of rippling heartbeat for a long time.
"Miss Ani," Xu Zun quickly withdrew his hand and asked, "What do you mean by what you said? Why should I send you away?"
"I mean..." Ani looked at Xu Zun nervously and said, "Please don't send me back to Yuanzhou. Actually...I didn't live well there. I suspect that the princess sent me there on purpose.
Human…”
"Oh?" Xu Zun raised his eyebrows, "Deliberately giving it away?"
"I am a servant, and there..." Ani's tears streamed down, which was especially pitiful. "They don't treat me as a human being. I... I really don't want to go back!"
"Sir...Sir, you saved me. Our tribe has an oath alliance. If you save me, you are my master!" After saying that, the little girl knelt down again, "Please take me in, and I will be my slave from now on."
, serve the left and right..."
"Don't...don't do this!"
Xu Zun was caught off guard by this tribal beauty and quickly reached out to help her. After his hands touched each other again, he felt that his whole body was about to go numb.
Such a beautiful woman actually wants to be my slave, this feeling...
"Hey..." Lu Mingyue on the side rolled her eyes and whispered, "My brother Xu is very handsome."
"Miss Ani, listen to me," Xu Zun advised, "It's okay if you don't want to go back, but if you become my slave, that's too much!
"Look at how busy I am with handling cases every day. I...um...you...we..."
Xu Zun felt as if his tongue was knotted, and it was obvious that he was talking what he meant.
"Sir! Please don't dislike me..." Ani's eyes were filled with tears. Even if she cried, she was as sad as pear blossoms and the rain. "Slaves were born pitiful. It is common for them to suffer those inhuman abuses. Now I am fortunate to be saved by you. If I can continue to
The adults also despise me, then I...I won’t live anymore..."
"Oh," Lu Mingyue suddenly pinched Xu Zun's arm, "Are you hard-hearted? Even I look envious of such a beautiful maid, why don't you accept it? Are you short of your salary?"
"I..." Xu Zun no longer hesitated, nodded immediately and said, "Okay, Miss Ani, if you are willing, just follow me! But don't worry, you have suffered so much, I don't need to be a slave.
Maid, just be an assistant!"
"Really?"
Ani was so excited that she wanted to kneel down again, but this time Xu Zun had predicted it and stopped her in advance.
"They are all members of our own family," Xu Zun said, "Don't kneel down anymore!"
"Oh..." Ani was surprised, but she still shed tears excitedly, "This slave swears by the True God of the Grassland and will follow you. If you betray me, you are willing to be punished by heaven!
"Sir, I don't know what an assistant is. I can do whatever you want me to do from now on!"
"Miss Ani," Xu Zun said, "since you said you can do anything, then I want you to stay with Miss Lu now!"
"Ah?" Ani was puzzled, "What are you..."
"You have been eroded by the vicious elixir, and you still need to slowly recover," Xu Zun said, "And I still have an urgent case to handle, and I have no time to take care of your placement at the moment.
"So, you stay in the Hou Mansion for the time being. Firstly, you will take care of yourself, and secondly, you will help Miss Lu take care of this little Feng girl and help her recover as soon as possible."
"Oh, yes!" Ani turned around, glanced at Lu Xiaofeng, and said, "When I was sent to the Taoist priest's room, this girl was already there!"
"Hey?" Lu Mingyue thought of something and asked quickly, "Miss Ani, do you still remember what Xiaofeng said to you at that time?"
"Well..." Ani recalled, "The Taoist forced us to take medicine every day. After taking the medicine, we would have hallucinations, a feeling of being burned by fire, and we could only listen to others' manipulations...
"However, sometimes, we will be slightly sober," she thought for a moment and said, "Even when this girl is sober, her spirit seems to have collapsed. She just said things like don't touch me, don't kill me...
…
"Also...she also shouted things like 'run' and 'you bunch of beasts'. Sometimes she would make a slashing gesture, as if she was fighting someone desperately.
"And every time this happens, the Taoist priest will pour some kind of confusing soup into her, and after that, she will fall asleep..."
oh……
Xu Zun realized that perhaps because Lu Xiaofeng suffered a mutation, took the elixir for too long, and was force-fed the drug, she became mentally disordered, right?
And through Ani's description, it seems that the fact is more certain, that is, Lu Xiaofeng's family was indeed attacked by gangsters, her family was probably killed, and she herself was kidnapped into Chongtian Temple...
So...at this point, the case seems to have fallen into a new problem.
Among all the crimes committed by Chongtian Temple, it seems that Lu Xiaofeng was the only one who was robbed by them!
As for Ani and the other women in the practice room, they should have bought them with money.
So... was Yu Yangzi and others' robbery and murder of Lu Xiaofeng's family a premeditated plan, or was it an impromptu move?
Shangyuan City is so close to Chongtian Temple. It seems unwise for them to rob and kill nine members of the Lu family, right?
Also, the wealth of the Lu Family Bookstore is not that great, and compared with the property in Chongtian Temple, it is simply not worth mentioning.
So... have those unscrupulous gangsters committed any other major crimes?
