Chapter 297 It Hurts, Then I Remember
Not long after the team started walking, Xu Ping'an hurriedly walked towards Xu Wuyan.
"explain!"
Xu Wuyan glanced at him and said something.
He continued to hold Lin Mo's hand and followed the team slowly.
Xu Ping'an nodded and followed his steps closely, his expression serious:
“Shangguan Jue is dead.
Last night, the Guan family was wiped out and not a single one was left alive.
All the evidence left at the scene pointed to Qi Shaojie.
So early this morning, the government issued a wanted order for Qi Shaojie and others."
Xu Wuyan finally stopped and frowned:
"Qi Shaojie wiped out the entire Shangguan family?"
"Should I say Qi family?" Lin Mo beside him also stopped:
“Qi family, I’m afraid we’re going to be in trouble this time.
But Qi Shaojie, do you have such great ability?
I remember the Qi family had quite a few guards, yet they were still able to be exterminated.”
Xu Ping'an nodded, "The news that Xu Feng sent back cannot be false.
And now the government is looking for all the members of the Qi family in Heifeng Town.
At present, some of the people in the Qi family are dead, some are injured, and some have escaped.
Qi Shaojie was saved from disaster by the Qi family stewards in Heifeng Town, who risked their lives to get him out."
Lin Mo's expression turned serious at this moment.
If the government officials have been chasing Qi Shaojie, wouldn't Murong be in danger?
Xu Wuyan knew what she was worried about and shook his head:
"Don't worry about Murong, I have arranged people to protect them.
Murong is not stupid. If something goes wrong, he will definitely move to a safe place immediately.
Also, with all the commotion in Black Peak Town, Qi Zhenghuan must have received the news. He should be bringing people here by now, so there's no need to worry."
Lin Jiuyi nodded, "I'm not worried, I just think it's too coincidental.
As soon as the Qi family attacked the Shangguan family, the entire Shangguan family was wiped out. This is clearly a frame-up."
The Qi family is wealthy and powerful, so they would never kill all the people from the Shangguan family.
And Qi Zhenghuan is not the kind of person who kills innocent people indiscriminately.
Xu Wuyan nodded and looked at Xu Pingan:
"Send a message to Xu Feng to see if there are any survivors from the Shangguan family.
If there are any survivors, be sure to protect them and hand them over to Qi Zhenghuan when he arrives."
Looking at Xu Ping'an's leaving figure, Lin Mo was a little worried:
"I'm afraid the journey ahead will not be peaceful."
Xu Wuyan nodded and put his arm around her shoulders:
"Let's go, don't overthink it, things will work out when the time comes.
The Shangguan family is doomed to suffer this disaster!"
Xu Wuyan's eyes became deep.
He glanced at Lin Mo, then looked away.
His intuition told him that these people were coming for him.
But he has no evidence at the moment and needs to verify it.
And the one called Xie Zhenjun...
A cold light flashed in Xu Wuyan's eyes. He'd better not show up again, otherwise...
Lin Mo let Xu Wuyan lead her away, while she was thinking about something in her mind.
…
It was not until dark that Lao Wei announced that he would rest on the spot.
And tonight's camp is a flat land.
On the empty plain without any shelter, loneliness flows in the darkness.
At this time, everyone was busy.
I was busy all the time, making fire, cooking, and tidying up the place to stay for the night.
Although it is spring now, it is still very cold at night, so many people still go to collect firewood.
Right at this moment.
“Ahhhh!”
The man's scream startled the busy crowd and also attracted everyone's attention.
When they realized what had happened, everyone took a step back.
Are these Wen family members stupid?
Why mess with the Xu family when there are so many people to mess with!
Bang!
Xu Wuyan punched Wen Ruan's father, Wen Fu, in the face again.
Father Wen fell to the ground, his face twisted in pain.
He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood mixed with two yellow teeth onto the ground, which was instantly swallowed by darkness.
He looked up painfully at Xu Wuyan who was shaking his hands:
"You...why did you hit someone?"
"master!"
Mother Wen ran over crying and helped Father Wen up. Then she glared at Xu Wuyan accusingly:
"Xu Wuyan, why did you hit my master?
My master is a law-abiding person and has never offended your Xu family.
Why did you hit him?
He is old and in poor health. What if something happens if you hit him like this?
You’ve gone too far.”
After saying that, she looked at Father Wen with red eyes and asked him in a tearful voice if he was okay.
At this time, Wen's father's cheeks were swollen.
But he still shook his head at Wen's mother and comforted her not to worry.
Then he glared at Xu Wuyan angrily with a pig-like face:
"I'm going to ask Master Wei for justice in this matter."
After saying that, he started calling out "Master Wei".
But Xu Wuyan on the side was completely indifferent. He rubbed his right hand with his left hand and looked at the Wen couple with cold eyes.
Old Wei, who was called over, looked impatient.
Seeing Xu Wuyan, he whipped Xu Wuyan without saying a word:
"You've been causing me trouble all day. Are you itching for trouble?"
Bang!
Xu Wuyan grabbed the whip accurately. He tilted his head and looked at Lao Wei:
"You want to stand up for them?"
The murderous intent and indifference in Xu Wuyan's eyes surprised Old Wei.
He glared at Xu Wuyan, pulled back his whip, and then turned to look at the Wen family couple beside him:
"Did you do something to offend him?
If so, you better apologize quickly, otherwise I won’t be able to control this lunatic if he goes crazy.”
As soon as these words came out, Father Wen turned his head unnaturally and looked elsewhere.
Mother Wen looked puzzled, "No.
Uncle Wei, we have been well-behaved and fulfilled our duties along the way, for fear of causing trouble for you. You can see all this.
Besides, the Xu family is so scary, how dare we mess with them? "
Old Wei also looked confused. Mrs. Wen was right.
The Wen family kept their heads down and behaved in a humble manner all the way, wishing that no one saw them. How could they take the initiative to cause trouble?
But Xu Wuyan is not the kind of person who would cause trouble for no reason.
He turned his head to look at Xu Wuyan, "What's wrong with you tonight?"
Xu Wuyan cast his cold eyes on Father Wen, who looked unnatural, and sneered:
"Snitching, is it fun?"
Old Wei was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized what had happened before.
His face also sank, and he stared at Father Wen sharply:
"You were the one who informed the police?"
"Yes!" Father Wen said loudly.
When Xu Wuyan came to him, he knew that the other party must have investigated everything thoroughly, so he did not quibble but admitted it directly.
He sneered:
"I'm not snitching, I'm just telling what I saw!
What? Are people still not allowed to tell the truth?
Is it illegal to tell the truth?"
The people around gasped.
How come Father Wen, who has always been cautious, is so bold this time to confront the Xu family?
Old Wei also narrowed his eyes at this moment, "No one is stopping you from telling the truth.
But do you know that if the situation at that time had been handled improperly, there would have been rivers of blood and countless casualties?"
"What does that have to do with me?" Father Wen said with a cold expression.
"After all, it wasn't me who hid that person. No matter how unreasonable the officials are, they won't attack innocent people.
And if anyone is to blame, it's Xu's meddling."
Old Wei sneered, laughing at his naivety!
After he stopped laughing, he immediately turned around and left, making it clear that he didn't care about the matter.
As for what Xu Wuyan will do, it has nothing to do with him.
Love to make trouble?
Then you have to be able to bear the consequences!
Mother Wen was so frightened that her face turned pale. She grabbed Father Wen's arm with shaking hands:
"Master, are you confused? Why would you do such a thing?
You know that the Xu family is not easy to mess with, and messing with them is just asking for trouble, you... Hey! "
After saying this, Mother Wen sighed deeply.
Then she stepped forward, standing in front of Father Wen, and looked at Xu Wuyan with fear:
"Don't embarrass my master. I'll apologize to you on his behalf, okay?"
"Madam." Father Wen pulled her away with an angry look on his face:
"We didn't do anything wrong, why are you apologizing to him?"
After saying this, Father Wen glared at Xu Wuyan:
"You evil man, why don't you just die? Why do you live and harm us?
You have brought shame to the Anping Palace.
Think about the ancestral precepts of your Anping Palace. What you have done, are you worthy of being a descendant of the Anping Palace?"
When these words were spoken, the people around him trembled.
But one has to admire Father Wen's courage at this time. He said what they dared not say.
Your courage is commendable!
But before Xu Wuyan could speak, a wooden stick suddenly hit Wen's father.
The stick hit his arm right on the spot, and he cried out in pain.
The person who took action was Xu Xianyu.
The Wen couple looked in astonishment at Xu Xianyu who was throwing the wooden stick to the ground.
Both husband and wife couldn't understand why she, who was previously known for her calmness and generosity, would hit someone?
Father Wen broke out in a cold sweat from the pain.
Xu Xianyu looked at them coldly, "Does it hurt?
When it hurts, I can remember what I should do and what I shouldn’t do.”
Father Wen's face was grim, "You... are going too far!"
"Am I going too far, or are you?" Xu Xianyu sneered, "Because of your words, my Xu family might no longer exist!
So I didn't kill you, but the beating I gave you is a light punishment."
Seeing that he wanted to speak, Xu Xianyu did not give him a chance, but looked at him coldly:
"I really regret telling you about Wenruan!"
