Chapter 446 I Want to Kill Someone
When they came out of the old farmer's house, Lu Wanyin and Xie Jingci could no longer suppress the murderous intent in their hearts.
"I want to kill someone."
"I want to, too."
The two looked at each other.
"I won't be able to sleep if I don't kill two of them tonight."
"Me too."
Look at each other again.
"The children are in space anyway, so they won't be in danger. We can go now."
"Walk."
Lu Wanyin and Xie Jingci quickly reached an agreement, and the two of them sneaked into the night quietly.
The yamen was busy until midnight before it finally quieted down.
After the people who were selling grain had left, the remaining yamen runners began to gather together and collect their silver with laughter.
"We made a lot of money today, and it wasn't in vain that we worked until midnight."
"We are lucky to have encountered those fat sheep. This time we can be considered to have picked up a lucky catch."
The yamen runner who led Lu Wanyin during the day was very proud: "This is just the beginning. When those two send their children to our academy, we can extort as much as we want from them."
If I don't squeeze all the money out of them, all the skills I've cultivated over the years will be in vain."
Instantly, a group of people surrounded them: "How can you be sure that this is a fat sheep? Isn't it some big shot that we can't afford to offend?"
"How can that be? Do you think my eyes are vegetarian?"
The yamen runner sneered, "I have carefully examined the portraits of all the important figures in the capital, so it is impossible for me not to recognize them.
The only ones who left Beijing recently were our emperor and empress, and they didn't take our route.
and--"
He smiled mysteriously: "The Emperor and Empress came out this time with the little prince and princess. It's been so long, have you seen any children?"
When everyone heard this, they quickly shook their heads and said, "No, indeed not."
“That’s all.”
The yamen runner smiled complacently: "Besides, the weapons those two men carried were all from the wild.
Moreover, these are high-quality weapons that can only be obtained by those with a certain status in the wilderness.
These people must have made a lot of money following Mu Ji."
Everyone laughed together: "With the young master here, that money will be ours sooner or later."
The laughter below became more and more rampant. Lu Wanyin snorted coldly: "You observe very carefully. But it's a pity that the damned will still die."
She slowly drew out the dagger from her sleeve: "Kill!"
The two men each took off a mask to cover their faces, turned into two afterimages, and rushed towards the group of yamen runners below.
The sharp blade cut through the flesh.
Two of the people below had already fallen before they could figure out the situation.
Lu Wanyin snorted coldly: "I haven't killed someone with a knife for a long time. I'm really not used to it."
Xie Jingci raised his hand and slapped away one who was trying to escape: "I'll get used to it after killing these people."
The remaining people finally reacted and screamed: "Help, there is murder--"
whoosh.
The person who shouted widened his eyes and slowly fell backwards.
A stone actually shot through his head.
He gently wiped the blood off the knife: "Whoever moves will die first."
The remaining few people were silent: "No, we won't move."
Lu Wanyin nodded: "Yes, you will die if you don't move."
The two men's figures were like dots, and a group of yamen runners fell down at an even faster speed.
The yamen runner who had led the way during the day fell to the ground, facing the cold blade, and shouted in panic: "My father is the county magistrate here, you can't kill me."
Lu Wanyin's heart moved and she stopped: "You are just a county magistrate, why should I spare your life?"
The yamen runner quickly explained: "My father has a backer in the capital. If you dare to attack me, aren't you afraid of being blamed by the bigwigs in the imperial city?"
He felt he could still be saved.
“There are also big shots.”
Lu Wanyin glanced at him meaningfully and said, "In that case, call your father, the county magistrate, over tomorrow at noon. Let's have a good talk about that important figure in the capital."
She wanted to see who had such great ability that he could hide until now despite Xie Jingci's year-long crackdown.
The yamen runner's eyes lit up: "Okay, I will definitely bring my father here at noon tomorrow."
All the yamen runners except him were dead.
No matter what it is, just agree to it first.
"very good."
Lu Wanyin took out a pill, pinched his mouth open, and stuffed it directly in: "You'd better keep your word, otherwise, you will be eaten bit by bit by the little bugs in your stomach."
The yamen runner shuddered, fell to the ground, and vomited hard.
When he stood up, Lu Wanyin and the other person were nowhere to be found, leaving only corpses on the ground.
He sat on the ground in shock, and after a while he crawled away: "Dad, help me——"
Lu Wanyin and the other man hadn't gone on a killing spree for a long time. After going out and coming back, they felt much better.
As soon as the two returned to their residence, they saw Hou Yuanji staring at the wall of their residence, eager to try: "It should be fine. I am a serious third-rank general after all. I am just climbing over the wall. It will definitely not alert anyone."
He found the right angle, kicked off, and jumped up: "One, two..."
"What are you doing?"
A sudden voice sounded.
The breath Hou Yuanji had just taken was instantly deflated like a punctured balloon.
Bang!
"ah!"
Hou Yuanji fell to the ground, holding his bruised head, wanting to cry but unable to: "Boss, you came back just in time."
Lu Wanyin glanced at the wall and said, "You're a thief and the door is not closed."
She pushed gently, and the gate creaked open a crack.
Hou Yuanji: ...This place doesn't seem so beautiful that you can leave your doors unlocked at night.
Xie Jingci reluctantly pulled Lu Wanyin aside and said, "Madam, it seems we are not going to go through the door."
Lu Wanyin was stunned: "Yes."
She was so angry today that she even forgot that she had also climbed over the wall to get out.
"Who cares? I've already pushed it away."
Lu Wanyin simply pushed the entire door open.
She glanced at Hou Yuanji without moving: "What are you doing here in the middle of the night?"
Hou Yuanji stared at the door eagerly. Seeing that she had no intention of inviting him in, he confessed awkwardly, "I haven't seen you all afternoon, Boss. I just came over to see if there's anything I can do for you."
The yamen runners arranged separate houses for them and Lu Wanyin.
Lu Wanyin never had any use for him, and he was a little panicked.
"It's something."
Lu Wanyin pondered for a moment: "Tell Xuanyi and Xuanqi to have a good rest tonight and be refreshed. Tomorrow, prepare to kill."
Hou Yuanji suddenly became alert: "Yes."
Is it suddenly so big?
The courtyard door creaked.
After Lu Wanyin finished her instructions, she walked into the yard.
*
It’s not yet noon.
The next morning, the door of the room where Lu Wanyin and her husband lived was kicked open.
Two yamen runners stood at the door with gloomy faces: "The county magistrate has ordered that all outsiders gather at the yamen immediately."
Lu Wanyin and Xie Jingci were eating their breakfast leisurely without moving. "Did the county magistrate tell us what this is about?"
It's unlikely that they would recognize them as the killer from last night.
If they had known, these two yamen runners would not have had the courage to kick the door.
