Chapter 60: Emptying Zhou's Family Home

Ball

Xie Deyao hurriedly got up from the ground: "I'll go! I'll go by myself!"

But as soon as he moved, he felt excruciating pain all over his body.

I couldn't even straighten my back, and my legs were shaking violently.

The situation of others was not much different from his.

So, Xuan Qi drove a group of staggering "zombies" out of the city like a corpse driver.

After watching them walk away, Lu Wanyin sneaked into Zhou's house.

It feels like returning to your own home and strolling around the garden.

Wherever he passed, all the furniture and furnishings were gone.

"Thieves!"

A scream came from the kitchen in the southwest corner, and Zhou's mother ran straight to the kitchen.

I hadn't run a few steps when I was frightened by the empty rooms along the way.

Zhou's mother looked at several rooms and saw that they were all bare. Suddenly, an idea flashed in her mind.

"Oh no! Could the main hall have been robbed as well?"

Before she finished speaking, Zhou's mother shouted at the servants to run to the main hall.

Lu Wanyin curled her lips in a sneer, raised her hand, and put everything in the main hall into the space.

She teleported away just before Zhou's mother arrived.

When Zhou's mother and son saw that all the property in their home had been stolen, they slapped their thighs, sat on the ground and cried bitterly.

But the servants did not give them time to grieve and immediately forced them to hand over the outstanding monthly salary.

But where do they have the money?

Even if the clothes on my body were stripped off, it would not be enough to pay off the debt.

The servants were furious and beat them up with punches and kicks until there was not a single piece of good flesh left on their bodies.

Finally, they were asked to return it within a certain period of time, otherwise they would be beaten every day.

After watching the whole process, Lu Wanyin felt particularly happy.

The money that belongs to Xie Jingci would rather be thrown into the river than be enjoyed by such a greedy and shameless person.

…

After all, several people from the Xie family's eldest branch were seriously injured and walked very slowly.

Lu Wanyin and Xuan Qi did not urge them either.

Especially Lu Wanyin.

She gave half of the snacks she bought from the county town to Xuan Qi, and they ate while walking.

Then she admired the green mountains and clear waters around her, which were so beautiful that she felt like she was going for an outing.

After a long time, the group finally reunited with the main force.

Lu Wanyin took a quick look around and saw that all three branches of the Xie family were present.

Everyone's face is also very colorful.

Xie Jingci took the initiative to explain: "Xie Derui fell into a trap set by a hunter, Xie Deyi was beaten by a fruit farmer for stealing fruit, and Xie Yuantai was chased by a group of wild boars..."

Less than an hour had passed since they separated, and each of them was having a more wonderful time than the other.

Lu Wanyin couldn't help but applaud them.

She leaned closer and asked, "Does their behavior have anything to do with your people?"

Xie Jingci smiled but said nothing.

Then Lu Wanyin understood.

These personal guards are all trying to take revenge on the Xie family.

Like master, like guards.

"Huh"

Lu Wanyin noticed that the number of servants was not right, and confirmed that all the guards had returned.

She half-closed her eyes.

When the King of Qi poisoned the food, most of the servants were instigated by Xie Derui to punish her.

There were also a few people who spoke up for her.

But now these people are gone.

In addition, many servants were also missing.

Unfortunately, Xie Jingci's personal guards had no intention of looking for him again.

Lu Wanyin raised her eyebrows and searched the crowd for Hou Yuanji.

"So many people are missing, Commander Hou has no objection."

Xie Jingci walked towards the Xie family, raised his chin, and curled the corners of his mouth slightly: "He doesn't have time to take care of other things now."

Lu Wanyin looked over there.

Hou Yuanji sat cross-legged in the crowd, looking at Xie Yuantai's face which was almost deformed by the bee stings, and laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten his back.

Tired of seeing Xie Yuantai, and hearing that Xie Ziheng's face was slapped in all sorts of colors, he immediately ran out to see.

A colorful steamed bun-like face pointed at several colorful steamed bun-like faces.

What does it mean to laugh at someone who has taken fifty steps but has taken a hundred steps?

That's it.

Lu Wanyin turned her head to the fire and admired the roasted chicken that was greasy and fragrant.

roast chicken:……

Hou Yuanji was extremely wicked. He not only commented on how ugly the Xie family's faces were, but also ranked them.

He even sent someone to borrow paper from Lu Wanyin.

Using charcoal as a pen, he drew down the miserable state of the Xie family.

For two whole hours, the portraits painted by Hou Yuanji covered the entire ground.

At first glance, it is colorful, just like theatrical makeup.

Wu Fan put a newly painted portrait in the sun to dry, and then hurried back.

His face was filled with obvious anxiety. "Sir, why don't you hurry them up? They've even finished their nap. If we don't catch them now, we really won't be able to catch them again."

Hou Yuanji raised his head from his painting and glanced at the group of guards near the prison van.

They really looked like they had just woken up, and were living a more leisurely life than he, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

"Don't be angry, don't be angry. It's a waste of time to die of anger after meeting such a bunch of awful people."

Hou Yuanji comforted himself and continued painting.

This made Wu Fan so anxious that he stamped his feet: "Master Hou! There are still sixty or seventy servants who have not been captured! How can you still be so calm?"

Hou Yuanji glanced at Lu Wanyin and Xie Jingci, lowered his voice but could not suppress his anger.

"You think I'm blind? Sixty or seventy people are missing, how could I not know?"

"Can't you see they don't want to find you anymore? Why are you still making such a fuss? Are you afraid your life is too long?"

"The word 'slave' is carved into the faces of those people. Even if they manage to escape today, there's no chance of survival."

Our bodies and hair are given by our parents. We should not damage them. This is the beginning of filial piety.

A prisoner who is subjected to tattooing is more disgusting than a rat crossing the street.

They were living in exile, and it was a blessing to be caught by local officials.

Otherwise, they would be driven away and insulted by the people day after day, and eventually starved to death or beaten to death.

Of course, this is under "general circumstances".

But when it comes to Xie Jingci's hands, it's hard to say.

Wu Fan couldn't have imagined this, and was indeed calmed down by Hou Yuanji.

"cough!"

A not-so-friendly cough sounded from behind Hou Yuanji, frightening him so much that he jumped three feet high.

After seeing clearly that the person coming was Xuan Qi, he subconsciously smiled flatteringly.

"It's Xie Jing... General Xie or Madam Xie. You're so polite. If there's anything, just send the messenger to pass on the message. Why bother Guard Xuanqi to go there in person?"

After Hou Yuanji finished speaking, he saw Xuan Qi was shocked.

Hou Yuanji thought about it and suddenly wanted to slap himself.

Damn it, have you forgotten your identity as the eldest grandson of the Hou family?

To flatter a prisoner!

Hou Yuanji stopped smiling, raised his chin slightly, and tried to regain his former arrogant look.

I adjusted my expression several times, but it only got weirder.

Woo woo woo, I was really scared by Lu Wanyin.

Xuan Qi suppressed his laughter and said, "My young mistress said that heavy rain is coming. We must set off immediately and find a cave to shelter from the rain."

"impossible!"

Hou Yuanji pointed to the cloudless sky and said, "Look up. With such a clear blue sky and such sunshine, does it look like it will rain?"
