Dodging Huang Mazi's attack, Su Luo turned around behind Er Gouzi, grabbed the back of his clothes, hooked her right hand to his chest, and slashed his neck with a dagger. The carotid artery was ruptured, and blood gushed out like a waterfall.
Er Gouzi lay on the ground, his body still convulsing and spitting blood, while Su Luo stood beside him unmoved, the dagger in her hand still dripping blood.
When Huang Mazi saw this, his legs went weak, and his body felt as if it were filled with lead, so frightened that he couldn't move.
Su Luo walked towards him, each step like a demonic figure, relentlessly pressing forward.
Huang Mazi collapsed to the ground, a stench of urine emanating from his groin. He stammered, "You...you killed someone...the authorities will make you pay with your life..."
Su Luo acted as if she hadn't heard him, staring at him arrogantly, making him feel cold all over.
Huang Mazi knew the path he was taking was dangerous, but he never imagined he would fall into the hands of a woman.
Run, that was the command his brain gave him, and he did just that. He crawled forward two steps, got up, and took off running.
Su Luo didn't chase after him. She simply turned her head and threw the dagger in her hand forward. It accurately pierced Huang Mazi's neck, the tip of the blade cutting through his throat, and Huang Mazi died on the spot.
Su Luo walked behind Huang Mazi, pulled out the dagger, and wiped the blood off it with his clothes.
However, after just one fight, she was already panting heavily. Su Luo felt that she was still too weak and needed to exercise more to protect her family.
Bending down to pick up the basket and put it on her back, Su Luo took out a bottle of corpse-dissolving liquid that she had concocted in her previous life from her spatial storage. This was the liquid she used to dissolve zombies in her previous life.
Half a bottle was poured on Er Gouzi and the other half on Huang Mazi's wound. The corpse-dissolving liquid reacted instantly, and the two corpses dissipated at a visible speed. After oxidation, even their clothes turned into a puddle of clear water.
As Su Luo left, she kicked the mud and ash onto the two clumps of clear water. Even if a pharmacist came to check the ingredients, he would only be able to detect the contents of the clear water.
She clapped her hands; it was time for her to buy some things and go home.
After Su Luo left, Nangong Qing and A Xu, hiding in the shadows, could hardly believe their eyes. What did they see? The two corpses vanished without a trace before their very eyes.
The two originally just wanted to watch the show and have a hero save the damsel in distress, but they never expected to witness a scene that would shock them for the rest of their lives.
Who exactly is this woman? How could she possess such abilities?
After Su Luo had gone some distance, the two went to check on the corpse. The weather was hot, and the mud and ash on the ground were absorbed quickly. When they went to check, there wasn't even a trace left.
“Ah Xu, Yongle County is starting to get interesting.”
Ah Xu used the scabbard to dig up the soil on the ground, but there was nothing there. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, who would know what had happened here?
"Young master, I never imagined that the seemingly ordinary Yongle County would be such a place where hidden talents reside."
Nangong Qing closed his fan, putting away his nonchalant attitude, and said thoughtfully, "Axu, go and investigate this woman. I need to know her entire past."
"Yes, young master!"
...
Su Luo went to the street, found a place to wash her hands, and then went to the pork shop. She bought a rack of ribs and two pounds of meat. Since the weather was hot and the meat couldn't be kept for long, she bought less. She also bought pork fat.
She bought another ten catties of rice and two salt jars at the rice shop. She had salt in her spatial storage, so she could just pour it out when she got home. She just needed to tell Zhao Ruyun that she had bought it.
She bought two more bolts of cloth, which cost her a little over one tael of silver.
It's past lunchtime now, and she won't get home until the afternoon if she walks back. Thinking of the place where Uncle Li used to park his oxcart, she'll go there later and hire an oxcart to take her home.
While walking down the street, Su Luo saw a vendor selling puppies. The puppies in his hands were round and plump, with bright and cute eyes like obsidian.
If we buy these two dogs for Chuan Chuan and Huan Huan to raise, they'll definitely be very happy.
Su Luo decided to buy it immediately and asked the vendor how much it cost.
The vendor smiled and said, "Young lady, I only have two dogs here. If you want them both, I'll give you a discount. How about two hundred coins?"
"good!"
When Su Luo returned to Changping Village with a cart carrying fifty coins, some people saw her carrying two bolts of new cloth. People here could only afford one bolt of cloth every few years to make clothes, but Su Luo's family, the poorest in the village, could buy two bolts at once. Some people were envious, while others were jealous.
Back at the kiln, Zhao Ruyun and the two children were not there. The wood-chopping knife outside was also missing, so it was likely that Zhao Ruyun had taken the two children up the mountain to chop firewood.
Su Luo tied the two dogs to the fence and saw a lid on the pot on the stove. She opened it and found that it was lunch that Zhao Ruyun had left for her.
Although she was eating wild vegetables, Su Luo felt warm inside.
After finishing her meal, Su Luo took a hoe and dug a small patch of ground outside the kiln, then scooped out some wood ash from the stove and sprinkled it on top.
Then sprinkle in the eggplant seeds that were soaked in water yesterday.
Once the seedlings have grown, they can be transplanted to dry land. This variety of eggplant will bear fruit in just two months.
After they finished doing all that, Zhao Ruyun and the others returned. As soon as Yan Chuan and Yi Huan entered the door, they heard the puppy barking. The two of them immediately ran to the puppy's side and petted it.
"Mom, where did this puppy come from? It's so cute!"
Su Luo went over and took the puppy from Yi Huan's arms: "Huanhuan, don't hold it. We'll give it a bath tonight and kill the parasites before you hold them."
Yi Huan was a little reluctant, but she still obediently stopped hugging him.
"Mother, did you buy this dog especially for me and my sister?" Yan Chuan was much more composed.
Su Luo patted the two children's heads and said, "Yes, you will raise these two dogs from now on. You can name them, okay?"
There was a black dog and a yellow dog. Yi Huan pointed to the yellow dog and said, "Mom, I like this yellow one. I want it."
Yan Chuan also liked the yellow dog, but seeing how much his younger sister liked it, he decided to give it to her. The little black dog was also very cute.
"Okay! Huanhuan will name Xiao Huang, and Chuanchuan will name Xiao Hei."
Yan Chuan looked at Xiao Hei and thought for a moment before saying, "Mother, let's name Xiao Hei Shi Tou (Stone)."
Su Luo: "Stone is good, it's hard, it's a good name."
Yi Huan scratched her head and thought for a long time before saying, "Mom, Xiao Huang's fur is all different, it's all colorful, so let's call it Hua Hua (Colorful)."
"Okay, whatever makes you happy."
Both dogs were very docile, and they didn't get agitated when the two children petted them.
"You two can take the dog out to play, but remember to keep it on a leash and don't let it run away or bite other children."
Yan Chuan and Yi Huan were overjoyed and couldn't wait to share the puppy with the children in the village.
Zhao Ruyun put down the firewood and smiled as she watched the heartwarming scene of the mother and her two children.
"Luo Luo, you're spoiling them so much, you're going to ruin them."
