Chapter 67 Teaching the Servants a Lesson
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on the low prison, and the melted snow on the ground had long since frozen back into ice.
Unlike the cold and quiet days of the past, the prison is particularly lively today.
Lu Jingyu stood behind the prison door, banging on it and shouting loudly. His voice was already hoarse, but he still did not give up.
"You bunch of dogs and slaves, I am from the Lu family in the capital. How dare you lock me up in such a lowly and dirty place? If I don't break your neck when I get out, I will no longer be named Lu."
The servants outside were bored in winter. They had never heard of such an arrogant prisoner coming to the prison today. In the past, every prisoner who came here was allowed to be beaten and twisted by them. Unexpectedly, there was another thorn this time.
The servants burst into laughter after hearing what Lu Jingyu said.
"The Lu family in the capital? I am from the Lu family in Jinwu Town? Who is the Lu family? I have never heard of it. Hahaha..."
"This brat is quite arrogant. He even wants to break our necks. Does he seem to be dishonest?"
"Brothers? How about it? How about taking that brat out and having some fun with him?"
Wan Xingmo heard their conversation clearly. These people were servants of the mayor's family. The temporary prison set up by the mayor privately was just to satisfy his own selfish desires. The people above him didn't even know there was such a place as a temporary prison.
According to the procedure, prisoners sent to the border should be immediately transferred to the village, but now a temporary prison has been added.
Wan Xingmo patted Lu Jingyu's shoulder, a dark light flashed in his eyes. He wanted to use Lu Jingyu's identity to take everyone out, but he also didn't want the eldest grandson of the Lu family to be harmed.
How could these servants, who were of low status, have heard of the Lu family in Beijing? Wan Xingmo guessed that even the mayor might not have heard of the Lu family in Beijing.
Because the Lu family's reputation among scholars is well-known, it is difficult to say whether the mayor has ever received any education.
"Jingyu, you can take a break now."
Lu Jingyu also heard what the servants outside said. Although he was filled with anger, he also knew that this was not the time to fight against a rock, so he chose to endure it.
Wan Xingmo's dark eyes flashed with approval. This child was worthy of being a member of the Lu family. He knew how to judge the situation. If he was an ordinary seven or eight-year-old child from an aristocratic family, he would have exploded by now, and the result would have been self-inflicted.
Lu Jingyu was led by Wan Xingmo to sit among the crowd.
Wan Xingmo has already adapted to the darkness. Although he can't see very clearly, there is a little light coming through the crack in the door, which allows Wan Xingmo to see the situation of everyone in the room clearly.
At this time, Wan Xingmo heard the footsteps of the servants walking towards their prison.
Then there was the sound of the door being unlocked, and it was quickly pushed open from the outside. The dazzling light was like a sharp thorn to those who had stayed in the dark for a long time, making it difficult for them to open their eyes. Everyone subconsciously raised their hands to cover their eyes.
Wan Xingmo flashed and stood in front of Lu Jingyu.
Three or four servants rushed in at the door. Each of them was wearing a gray cotton coat and trousers, a cotton hat on his head, and his hands were tucked into his sleeves. Their skin was pitch black, as if they had been smoked by charcoal, and when they spoke, their big yellow teeth were exposed.
"That brat from the Lu family in Beijing, get out here!"
The leading servant stood in front of the crowd and searched among them with his eyes.
Several people were talking to Lu Jingyu outside through the door, but they did not see Lu Jingyu himself, and did not know how tall, short, fat, or thin Lu Jingyu was, or what he looked like.
No one answered the servant's question. Everyone subconsciously lowered their heads and avoided the question.
Little Fubao, however, looked at the servant with sparkling eyes, looking calm. She could sense that the atmosphere was not right, but as a little girl she didn't quite understand what was going on. She only knew that these people smelled so bad, even worse than the smell in the house, that she wanted to go out.
Little Fubao blinked her eyes and raised her head in Wan Ersao's arms. She wanted to stand up to see clearly. She had just been locked in the dark and was not used to it.
Now that it was light, she wanted to go out, one of her hands still pulling Wan Ersao's clothes, she said in a baby voice: "Open the door!"
Xiao Fubao means that the door is open, why don’t everyone go out?
The servants immediately turned their eyes to the little Fubao who was speaking, and the leading servant's eyes lit up.
"Wow, this little girl is so pretty! Brothers, we've got money."
Upon hearing this, the other servants immediately stepped forward and looked at Xiao Fubao.
Wan Ersao was so frightened that her body was shaking. It was too late to hide little Fubao. Wan Ersao held little Fubao tightly and kept moving backwards. She was sitting on the ground at first, but now her legs were bent, and as her butt moved backwards, her feet drew two winding lines on the ground and kept moving backwards.
"Still want to run? Now that you're on my territory, do you think you can escape?" The servant said with a determined smile on his face and looked at Xiao Fubao with a sinister look.
"Brothers, come on, this woman is not bad, take her away too."
After the servants said this, they all pounced on Wan Ersao like devils.
"daughter in law!"
"The second son's wife!"
"Second sister-in-law!"
Several voices sounded at the same time, and people followed closely. Several figures blocked Wan Ersao and Xiao Fubao behind them. The servant missed them and hugged Wan Laoer's neck and kissed him on the face.
Wan Laoer was so disgusted that he got goose bumps all over his body.
He pushed the servant away and patted his body with his hands, as if there was some invisible dirt on his body.
The servant attacked the wrong person and became so angry that he wanted to beat and scold everyone.
The leading servant was suddenly kicked away by Wan Xingmo.
Then there were a few "bang bang bang" sounds as bodies were kicked hard and fell to the ground.
These servants were not kicked out of the door by Wan Xingmo, but were deliberately kicked into the side where the female corpse was.
Just as the few people landed on the ground and had not yet gotten up, they heard a thud and something fell, followed by a series of terrified screams like ghosts and wolves howling.
In the darkness, the female corpse was hit against the wall by these people. The iron nails on her body fell off due to the softness of the wall and the vibration. Without the restraints of the iron nails, the female corpse fell directly from the wall towards the servants who fell in front of her.
The female corpse's body is now in a semi-rotten state, with many bones exposed.
When the corpse fell on the servants, the bones happened to be caught on their clothes.
The servants already knew that there was a female corpse here. After they recovered, a layer of cold sweat broke out on their backs. Just at this moment, the female corpse fell down and they were pounced upon by her.
The horrific scream made my head tingle.
Wan Jinshu leaned against the wall, glanced lightly in the direction where the servant's voice came from, and then looked at Wan Xingmo.
Wan Xingmo's mouth corners curled up coldly, and he looked in the direction of the servant in the darkness, his eyes flashing coldly.
Wan Jinshu sighed lightly and said nothing. He probably guessed that there must be some hidden story behind the stench of the corpse over there.
The servant struggled to get up from the ground, but he couldn't pull the female corpse off his body.
The female corpse was tightly hooked to a servant, and no matter what the servant did, he couldn't get rid of her.
The other servants had already peed their pants in fear in the dark, and didn't care about the life or death of this servant. They crawled out of the darkness towards the light using their hands and feet.
They no longer had the energy to find fault, as if there was some evil ghost chasing them over there.
Little Fubao clapped his hands and giggled. Wan Ersao also breathed a sigh of relief at this time. Looking at the miserable appearance of those people, Wan Ersao felt extremely relieved. She cursed in her heart: You deserve it. You even wanted to sell my daughter. This is really retribution. You are possessed by a ghost at night. You bad guys.
What Wan Ersao didn't know was that what she said really hit the mark for those people. They were all sleep-paralyzed in the middle of the night, and the next day they all had high fevers for no reason.
The servant inside struggled for a long time and took off his cotton jacket and trousers before he freed himself from the female corpse. He ran out screaming, wearing only a patched undershirt.
Lu Jingyu burst into laughter as he watched. The servant was in no mood to bother Lu Jingyu anymore. He crawled out with unsteady steps, stumbling every few steps, and even forgot to lock the door.
But everyone was finally able to see daylight, and Wan Xingmo took the opportunity to go out and brought back a lot of dry firewood from the woodshed, as well as a fire starter.
Wan Laoer quickly helped to light two fires. When the flames started, most of the cold air was immediately dispelled, and everyone sat cross-legged around the fire.
Lu Jingyu looked at Xiao Fubao and saw that he was playing with his hands in Wan Ersao's arms. Lu Jingyu deliberately squeezed next to Xiao Fubao and started interacting with him.
In the dark prison, the atmosphere was unusually harmonious with the sound of two children babbling to each other.
At this time, the mayor's house was a completely different scene.
