Chapter 223 The Bold Local Rich Businessman
"I know the general is not afraid of trouble, but my matter..."
"You are so good, Wei Dachu, you are hiding something from me. Come, tell me."
Before Chef Wei could finish his words, he heard Xu Yulan's somewhat displeased voice.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Yulan, with an expressionless face, appeared in the sight of the three people, followed by Xuan Shijiu and Qing Jiu.
Xuan Shiwu, Jing San and Jing Wu stood in the corridor upstairs with swords in their arms and their chests clasped together, looking around the inn expressionlessly.
"Wei Dachu, tell me in detail what happened when you returned home."
Seeing Xu Yulan showing signs of anger, Wei Dachu slumped to his knees and told her everything that had happened...
Half an hour later, the three people standing beside Xu Yulan had raging anger in their eyes and exuded a cold murderous aura.
They didn't expect that a local wealthy businessman could have such great power.
If Wei Dachu had not returned home in time, his younger sister would have committed suicide by jumping into the river.
Fortunately, with the help of relatives and brothers, Wei Xiaoqin was rescued after a fight.
However, it was also because of this that Zhou Yi held a grudge against the Wei family, causing them to run into trouble from time to time.
Wei Dachu noticed something was wrong and after discussing with the clan leader, he secretly hid the unmarried women in the clan and reported the matter to the authorities.
I thought the matter was over, but I never expected that those local officials were in cahoots with Zhou Yi. Not only did they throw them in jail, they also threatened the lives of their clansmen.
Wei Dachu and several of his brothers escaped at the risk of their lives, wanting to go back to rescue their fellow tribesmen. However, unexpectedly, in the end, only he, another brother, and two nephews escaped.
Under the protection of him and his nephew Dunzi, the hidden women in the clan left Qiyang County under the leadership of his brothers and nephews.
They don’t know how they are doing now.
Xu Yulan pondered for a moment, then turned to look at Jing Liu and said seriously, "Qiyang County is located in Qintang County. The county governor is the prince's man. Is Jing Liu sure?"
Jing Liu looked up at Xuan Shiwu in the corridor upstairs and replied respectfully, "Second Master, just let Shiwu and the others go."
“How confident are they?”
Jing Liu smiled slightly, "Don't worry, Second Master, they are very familiar with Qintang County Fifteen."
"Um"
Seeing Xu Yulan's puzzled look, Xuan Shijiu, who was following beside him, said calmly, "We are indeed very familiar with Qintang County, and we are also familiar with the county governor's residence. Second Uncle, before we go to Qintang County, we must escort you back to the capital."
"However, you can let Shiwu take Zhiyu and the others to go ahead."
Xu Yulan shook her head. "You two will escort Wei Dachu and his nephew. I'll have Jingliu and the others to protect me."
Xuan Shijiu looked at Qing Jiu and asked: Is it feasible?
Qing Jiu nodded and said, "We will follow the arrangements of our second uncle. However, it is feasible to send Qing Jiu out and set off early tomorrow morning."
Hearing Qingjiu's words, Xu Yulan became confused again. He looked at Qingjiu suspiciously for a moment, then nodded in agreement.
Qing Jiu bowed, turned around, and quickly disappeared into the night...
After taking a look at Wei Dachu who was still standing there in a daze, Xu Yulan waved his hand, turned around and went upstairs to his room.
The next day, when the sky was turning pale, Qing Jiu and five others appeared at the door of the inn.
"Sixth Instructor, we are heading to Qintang County. We are worried that Second Uncle will have trouble on his way back to the capital. Chunwu and the others will accompany you to escort Second Uncle back to the capital."
"Can."
After a stick of incense.
The two teams headed in different directions...
Not long after, Xuan Shiwu and his group of seven entered Qintang County.
Then he followed Wei Dachu to Qiyang County.
Weijia Village.
Looking at the deserted village, Xuan Shiwu and his fifteen companions became angry. After some discussion, they decided to explore at night.
Zhiyu Zhixin and Qingjiu Team are responsible for visiting Zhou's house at night.
Xuan Shiwu and Xuan Shijiu are a team responsible for visiting the prison cells in Qiyang County at night.
That night, they told Wei Dachu and his nephew to hide, and the five of them moved and disappeared into the night.
Zhou family.
In the study.
"Master, Weijia Village is completely deserted. We've been searching for months, but haven't seen a single person."
“Not a single person in sight”
"My lord, no, I'm just digging three feet into the ground."
Upon hearing this, the man in his late fifties sitting at the main seat slammed his hand on the table and shouted angrily, "What a bunch of Weijia Village! How ungrateful! The fact that this master has a crush on a girl from the Wei family is a blessing they've earned through a hundred generations of hard work."
"You are so ungrateful and dare to go against me and sue me. You really want to die."
The person kneeling on the ground shuddered when he heard this, thinking: Who would dare to marry a girl to someone like you?
What are you like? Don't you know it?
The man who shouted angrily was Zhou Yi, who was forty-eight years old this year. Although he seemed to have many wives and concubines at home, only a few of them were truly following him.
Even so, Zhou Yi was not satisfied. Whenever he saw a woman with a little bit of beauty, no matter whether she was married or not, he would try every means to get her.
The most hateful thing is that after you get the person, after playing with him for a while, he either disappears or dies suddenly.
As time went by, more and more people went missing. Some people noticed something was wrong and started to investigate secretly.
But for some reason, only one out of ten people who secretly investigated survived, and the remaining person lost his life not long after.
Soon after, rumors began to circulate.
Rumor has it that the woman that the Zhou family master snatched back was not missing at all, nor did she die suddenly.
Instead, he was tortured to death by the perverted master of the Zhou family.
Those women were buried in the backyard garden of the Zhou Mansion...
…
Families whose family members had disappeared after entering the Zhou Mansion were shocked and upset after hearing this rumor.
Some of them burst into tears, crying out: "My son, my poor son..."
Those people wanted to sue Zhou Yi and seek justice for his family, but they knew the relationship between the Zhou family and the county magistrate, so they could only swallow their anger and suppress the matter...
Seeing that those people hated him but could do nothing to him, Zhou Yi became more arrogant.
Just a few months ago, he set his sights on several girls from the Wei family.
I thought it was a sure thing, but I didn't expect that the Wei family not only hid the person, but also sued him.
If it weren't for the conflict of interest between the magistrate and me, I would probably have to stay in jail this time.
If I were to be thrown into jail, my beautiful wives and concubines would surely cry their hearts out...
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Zhou Yi looked at Afu, who was kneeling on the ground, with a cold face, "Go find him again! I don't believe that the Wei family can still turn the tables."
"Yes." After answering, the person kneeling on the ground immediately stood up, turned around and walked out quickly...
Zhou Yi was dreaming in the study, but he didn't know that Afu, who had just walked out of the study in Zhou's mansion, was standing in front of Qing Jiu and the other two.
