Chapter 228 Are They Planning to Starve Sixth Brother to Death?
The woman quickly figured it out. Perhaps the faraway place the child was talking about was just Dajin, and the child didn't understand anything at all.
Soon, a man slowly walked out from the innermost part of the dungeon. It was Yun Tiankuo.
He was holding a lunch box, obviously delivering food to the woman, but before he could wake her up, he heard other people coming, so he had to hide inside.
"You had such a good opportunity just now, why didn't you kill her?" The woman looked over and asked coldly.
Yun Tiankuo didn't say anything. He opened the cell door, walked in, and took out the things in the food box one by one.
"Don't you want to avenge Ru Ru?" The woman gritted her teeth.
"Eat." Yun Tiankuo put the food on the table and spoke in a gentle voice.
"Yun Tiankuo!" The woman was completely furious. "Don't play dumb. What's the matter? Aren't you tired of being the city lord?"
"Hai Jiao! Yu Hai Jiao!" Yun Tiankuo's voice was filled with helplessness. "Didn't I tell you last night that we can't take action in the City Lord's Mansion? Otherwise, the people of Dongyi City will be implicated."
The woman called Yu Haijiao burst into tears. "I can't let this one down, I can't let that one down. Then...what about my Ruru? Did she die in vain?"
"Of course not." Yun Tiankuo said firmly, "Hai Jiao, believe me, I will definitely avenge Ru Ru! But..."
He paused, the image of the girl's frightened face flashing before his eyes. "It's just that I think that revenge should go to Bai Yunfeng, not this child. Don't worry, once the matter in Dongyi City is resolved, I will go to Dajin. I will kill Bai Yunfeng and avenge my daughter even if it means my life."
"That's nonsense, absolute nonsense." Yu Haijiao became emotional, crying and beating Yun Tiankuo. "You don't even want to avenge your daughter. In your eyes, there's only this Dongyi City. Whether it's Ruru or Madam, they're dead, and you don't care at all."
"Hai Jiao, why do you think that?" Yun Tiankuo was also a little excited. "How could I not care about them? But, didn't you notice? That child is very kind. She is a kind child just like our Ru Ru."
"So what if they're kind?" Yu Haijiao sneered. "Shouldn't those who are kind deserve to die? Then why did they kill Ru Ru?"
She clearly remembered something, her face pale and her eyes filled with pain. "She was so young, and all she wanted was to save that old lady, but...what did they get in return? They pierced her heart with a sword."
Yu Haijiao's body began to shake violently. "I was helping her at the time, but the bleeding wouldn't stop, and the same thing happened to my tears. But you know what? Our sensible Ru Ru was still blaming herself before she died. She said, 'Mom, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have run around. Mom, don't cry. Don't be sad...'"
"Ahhh..." From the time the incident happened until now, Yu Haijiao didn't dare to recall anything. At this moment, she was almost in excruciating pain, beating her chest frantically, as if that would make her feel better. "Why didn't I stay by her side at the time, why..."
"Okay, Haijiao, don't do this, don't do this." Yun Tiankuo's eyes also turned red, and he hugged the woman distressedly. He also felt heartbroken at this moment.
"Go away, take your things and get out. I don't want to eat, and I don't want to see you." Yu Haijiao said finally. Then, she pushed Yun Tiankuo away forcefully and sat in the corner again, looking absent-minded.
Yun Tiankuo thought for a moment and left two steamed buns hidden in the corner. "Eat them when you're hungry. I'll go back first."
He carried the food box and left, dragging his body as if he had lost his soul.

At night, Xiaotuanzi asked Xingxing about Youzhu's situation again, but Youzhu was still tied up in that place, and she still couldn't tell where it was.
She was in a bad mood and sat on the steps depressed.
Bai Yu'an listened to Qingyun tell him what happened in the evening. He sat silently beside Li Suining without disturbing her.
"Oh!" After a long time, the little dumpling sighed deeply like a little adult.
Bai Yu'an turned his head to look at her, "Worried about your sixth brother?"
Little Dumpling nodded and asked in confusion, "Second brother, who do you think captured Sixth brother? And what do they want to do to Sixth brother?"
She suddenly thought of the poor woman in the dungeon and asked with even greater concern, "Second brother, they're not going to lock up Sixth brother somewhere and never give him any food? Are they planning to starve him to death?"
Bai Yu'an didn't know, but he understood that there was such a possibility.
Moreover, he asked Li Suining, You Zhu always wore a veil, so the other party probably didn't see his eyes and didn't know that he was not a pure Jin person.
Such a situation is indeed possible. The other party does not want to do anything and intends to starve You Zhu to death.
"Sister, don't worry too much. Tomorrow, we'll change into Northern Barbarian clothes and go out to look for him. The people from Feiyun Sect will also help us. Maybe we'll get some news soon."
Bai Yu'an could only comfort her in this way.
Little Dumpling nodded and asked tentatively, "Second brother, what do you think the city lord will do with that aunt in the dungeon? He won't starve her to death, will he?"
"Don't worry, it won't happen." Bai Yu'an confirmed with a smile. Yesterday, Qingyun said that there was a person hiding deep in the dungeon, and it should be Yun Tiankuo.
Obviously, Yun Tiankuo also went to deliver food to that woman, so it is very likely that they knew each other.
"I hope so." The little girl puffed up her cheeks in frustration, but couldn't help but speak well of the woman. "Second brother, I think that auntie...her relatives must have died in the war, so she hates us so much. She's so pitiful. Can we...can we forgive her?"
"Sister," Bai Yu'an patted the little girl's head, "If you want to forgive her, forgive her. Do whatever you want. You don't need to ask your second brother for his opinion."
He felt that perhaps his sister could be the key to changing everything.
"Okay, second brother, I'm going to sleep. You should go to bed early too." Little Tuanzi couldn't help but feel happy after hearing what Bai Yu'an said.
In this way, she can go see her aunt again tomorrow morning.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little happy. She sent food to that aunt, and also hoped that somewhere nearby, someone would also give food to her sixth brother, and hope that her sixth brother would not starve to death.
The next day, at dawn, Li Suining took two steamed buns and prepared to go to the dungeon. As soon as he went out, he saw Yun Tiankuo feeding the fish there again.
She hid the steamed bun behind her back and greeted him cautiously, "Uncle City Lord, good morning."
"Miss Suining, good morning!" Yun Tiankuo said without turning his head.
Seeing this, the little girl was delighted and said, "Uncle City Lord, you can continue with your work. I'm going to go play."
She turned and ran towards the dungeon.
