Chapter 255: I can no longer bear it.
but……
Shangguan Lin widened his eyes and looked at the security guard he brought with him in disbelief.
Is this the security guard that the Shangguan family hired at a high price?
They are usually quite arrogant and domineering, so why were they all beaten down today?
Xu Wuyan glanced at the Shangguan family's guards lying on the ground wailing, then looked up at Shangguan Lin:
"Do you still want to do it?"
Shangguan Lin was about to speak, but Xu Wuyan didn't give him a chance.
"Ping An, don't show any mercy and destroy them."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Ping'an and others attacked more violently. The crisp sound of broken bones came one after another, and the screams were incessant.
Shangguan Lin's face changed drastically. He was afraid that his men would be killed here, so he quickly called his men back.
This guy surnamed Xu is quite cruel.
"Don't regret it!" Shangguan Lin said viciously, then left with his men.
Old Wei on the side frowned. He always felt that things were not that simple.
But seeing that the Shangguan family had left, he didn't want to pursue the matter and immediately ordered everyone to pack up and set off immediately.
This order made everyone dissatisfied as they had not eaten yet.
But the whip in Lao Wei's hand made them shut up immediately and pack up their things reluctantly.
Zhou Yuxuan, who was in the corner, had a look of confusion on her face.
Didn’t succeed?
She couldn't help but grit her teeth. The old man in the Shangguan family was really lucky.
This can't poison him to death.
hateful!
Lin Mo stood beside Xu Wuyan, glanced at the direction Shangguan Lin left, and shook his head at Xu Wuyan:
"I have a feeling we won't be able to leave here for a while. Do you believe it?"
Old Wei, who happened to pass by her, had a look of disarray on his face for a moment.
Without waiting for Xu Wuyan to speak, he spoke first:
"Put away your crow's mouth.
Hurry up and pack your things and leave immediately!"
As soon as Lao Wei finished speaking, he immediately urged everyone to get ready to set off.
no!
We have to leave here quickly.
After hearing what Lin Mo said, he had a bad feeling.
Lin Mo looked innocent, why did she become a jinx?
Seeing her innocent look, Xu Wuyan chuckled, "Don't take Lao Wei's words to heart."
Lin Mo shook her head. "Old Wei is really worried that we'll get into trouble."
The team was finally ready to go.
Only after the team left the post station one after another did Old Wei breathe a sigh of relief.
But he hadn't walked far when he saw the soldiers guarding the intersection ahead and his heart skipped a beat.
It’s over!
I'm afraid that Madam Xu's bad words will come true.
Thinking of this, Lao Wei couldn't help but turn around and look at Lin Mo with resentment in his eyes.
A crow's mouth doesn't work for good but works for bad!
At this time, Lin Mo also noticed the movement in front, and she did not miss the look the foreigner gave her.
It was Lao Wei's look that made her unable to help but twitch the corners of her mouth. Could she be blamed for this?
Old Wei, resigned to his fate, could only drive his horse forward, and finally stopped in front of the leader of the other side.
Lao Wei said with a sullen face, "Why are you setting up obstacles here to block the road?
We are just passing by and need to continue on our way. Please move aside."
Zhang Chaoyang said with a stern face, "Old Master Shangguan has been murdered. I am tracking down the real culprit. Until the murderer is found, none of you can leave Black Peak Town for the time being."
As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately ordered people to search the body and carriage.
This made Old Wei's face change, "Grandpa Shangguan was killed?"
"That's right!" Zhang Chaoyang nodded.
"The servants of the Shangguan family discovered that Mr. Shangguan had been murdered before dawn.
Since the Shangguan family has reported the case, my parents naturally have to investigate it thoroughly and clear the Shangguan family’s name.
I was specifically asked to stay here and not let anyone leave."
Old Wei frowned. Now that Old Master Shangguan had died at this time, it would be easy for them to be suspected.
Thinking of this, Lao Wei nodded seriously:
"Sir, you need to track down the murderer. This is official business, and I cannot stop you.
But we must send people to Mocheng before the middle of next month. I don’t have much time left and cannot afford to delay.
So after you finish searching, if you don't find any evidence in my team, can you let us leave first? We need to continue our journey and we don't have time to waste."
Others also echoed.
Lin Mo, who was sitting in the carriage, suddenly felt uneasy.
The head of the Shangguan family is dead?
It was obvious that when I arrived in Mocheng in my previous life, the head of the Shangguan family was still alive and well.
What's going on?
Why did she die suddenly at this time?
wrong!
Shangguan Lin came just now, and combined with the current scene, Lin Mo always felt that something was wrong.
Come, get frustrated, and leave.
so……
Lin Mo was shocked, there was something fishy!
She thought of framing someone.
Lin Mo looked at Xu Xianyu and the others with a serious expression, "Quick, search everywhere to see if anyone has left anything in our carriage that shouldn't be there. Make sure you look thoroughly."
Everyone's face changed when they heard this.
But Lin Mo had no time to explain and continued:
"And take a look at yourselves too. Don't let anyone frame you."
Xu Xianyu and others did not dare to delay and started searching immediately.
Soon, Liu Ying found a small porcelain bottle in an inconspicuous corner of the carriage.
"This thing is not from our carriage."
Liu Ying panicked and subconsciously wanted to throw the small porcelain bottle away.
"Mom!" Lin Mo stopped her in time.
Lin Mo shook his head:
"You can't throw it away. Give it to me."
After saying that, she took the small porcelain bottle from Liu Ying's hand, then put it in her arms, actually throwing it into the space.
"Momo, just hide on your body, will anything happen to you?" Liu Ying looked worried.
The soldiers ahead were already conducting a body search. If they found this porcelain bottle in Momo's arms...
"Mom, don't worry, I'll be fine." Lin Mo shook her head:
“I promise they won’t be able to find what I’m hiding on my body.
The most important thing now is to check again to see if there is anything that does not belong to us."
Everyone stopped talking and began to check carefully again.
They all breathed a sigh of relief until they found nothing that shouldn't be there.
Xu Wuyan, who was outside the carriage, glanced at the carriage without leaving any trace, and then moved away.
There was such a loud noise, it seems something was found in the carriage.
Xu Wuyan's eyes darkened.
Since he wanted to perish sooner, how could he not be satisfied?
At this moment, Lin Mo got off the carriage and stood beside Xu Wuyan.
"What did you find?" Xu Wuyan lowered his voice.
"A porcelain vase and a bag of gold, silver and jewelry." Lin Mo said with a serious face:
"The Shangguan family wants to frame us for Mr. Shangguan's death. These things must have been secretly stuffed into our carriage by someone from the Shangguan family when Shangguan Lin arrived just now."
Frame them?
Lin Mo wanted to laugh.
Could she say that they didn't even know which way the Shangguan family's door faced?
What are these people thinking?
Can it be unfair if it can be unfair?
Lin Mo felt a little regretful.
I regret not going to Guan's house last night and emptying out all their things.
If they move out, how can they still show off?
"Old Xu, I don't want to endure it anymore, what should I do?"
There was a hint of coldness in Lin Mo's eyes.
There was another reason why she didn't want to touch the Shangguan family.
Private salt.
The Shangguan family secretly operated a private salt mine. With the Shangguan family's private salt, the people could have salt to eat.
After all, the price of private salt is much lower than official salt.
Besides, their previous grievances were just minor quarrels, and she didn't want to make a big deal out of it.
But this time, the Shangguan family really angered him.
"I can't stand it any longer. I don't need to stand it any longer." Xu Wuyan's voice was a little low:
"Without Shangguan Jinghong at the helm, the Shangguan family is a mess, each one acting on their own. They won't be able to thrive for long."
If a tree grows big but does not branch out, it will fall down sooner or later.
Lin Mo nodded.
The two men didn't say anything else. The officers and soldiers had already searched in front of them.
Xu Wuyan raised his hands and let them search.
But when he saw another soldier reaching out to touch Lin Mo, his face darkened and he kicked him without hesitation.
“Ahhhh!”
The officers and soldiers screamed and flew backwards.
This scene shocked everyone.
Xu Wuyan retracted his foot and looked at the officers and soldiers with a cold look:
"Try to touch my wife with your dirty hands!"
Zhang Chaoyang had his subordinates pulled up, then angrily drew his sword and rushed towards Xu Wuyan:
"How dare you resist arrest? And you even dared to hurt my people. You must be tired of living."
When Xu Wuyan took action, Old Wei was already in a headache.
Seeing Zhang Chaoyang actually drawing his sword and rushing towards Xu Wuyan, he quickly stepped forward to stop him:
"Master Zhang, please talk nicely. Don't be impulsive. Swords have no eyes!"
Zhang Chaoyang held up the knife, his face gloomy:
"Get out of the way! He dared to hurt my people. I will definitely teach him a lesson today."
How could Old Wei dare to give in? If he did, blood would be shed. He could only smile bitterly.
Teach Xu Wuyan a lesson?
I'm just afraid that I'll be taught a lesson.
Xu Wuyan is not a pushover, and he is a tough nut to crack.
"This is all a misunderstanding." Old Wei shook his head:
"It was because he wanted to search Madam Xu Wuyan's body that Xu Wuyan took action, so this matter can't be entirely blamed on him, right?"
"So, he's still right?" Zhang Chaoyang sneered:
"It's not just her that needs to be searched here, but everyone.
No one can hide from her, why is she pretending to be so?"
"No one wants to hide." Old Wei shook his head:
"But there are differences between men and women. Your subordinates are all men. If you let them search these women, are you sure they would agree? If they were to search your wife and daughter, would you agree?"
As soon as Lao Wei finished speaking, everyone suddenly shouted:
"No! Don't take chicken feathers as an excuse. There are differences between men and women, understand?"
"If anyone dares to search my wife, I will fight him."
"Try touching my daughter!"
