Chapter 501: Rescue Qi Fangxin, Prison
Upon hearing the guard say those words, Lu Xingchen felt a sudden unease.
She went to meet him.
Upon seeing her, the guard respectfully said, "Master, it's not safe tonight. Please return to your lodgings as soon as possible."
Lu Xingchen nodded and asked, "It's so late, do you have anything else to do?"
Guard A: "It's okay, we'll just patrol."
Lu Xingchen knew very well that her white jade crutch could only gain the respect of some NPCs and fair treatment, but no more.
It seems we have no choice but to act in secret.
Seeing the two guards leave in a hurry, Lu Xingchen released Lanlan: "You follow them for me, and come back to report if anything happens."
Lan Lan responded and followed quietly.
Lu Xingchen continued walking back with Gao Dafu and Gu Yanzhi.
The sky was dark, and the streetlights emitted a hazy yellow glow. Snowflakes drifted down, occasionally landing on the streetlights and melting instantly.
There were fewer and fewer people on the road, and by the time Lu Xingchen and his two companions entered the alley, there were almost no people left on the road.
The three people walked into the courtyard and found that all the lights on the second floor were already on.
Three people were standing on the second-floor terrace; they were Xuan Yuan Batian and his two siblings.
Lu Xingchen: ...
Are they targeting her?
She stomped her feet, shaking off the remaining snowflakes from her boots.
Xuanyuan Batian stared intently at her, while Xuanyuan Lingyun remained silent. Only Xuanyuan Badao said happily, "Ah, the lamb skewers? Your lamb skewers are delicious. Will you be grilling them again tomorrow?"
Lu Xingchen had a good impression of Xuan Yuan Badao and said with a smile, "We won't be roasting tomorrow; we've already finished roasting our lamb."
Xuanyuan Batian's eyes flashed: "I brought a lot of mutton with me. I'll sell it to you. 2,000 gold coins per sheep. Do you want it?"
Gao Dafu shouted, "Selling it for such a high price? Have you no shame?"
Xuanyuan Batian: "One sheep can make more than 1,000 meat skewers. If you sell each skewer for 5 gold coins, that's 5,000 gold coins. Even so, you're still making a lot of money. Otherwise, where do you get your meat from?"
A smug glint flashed in his eyes: "Do you want to make money from this?"
Hmph, Lu Xingchen is desperately trying to make money, so he wants to make a fortune too.
I got scammed out of 20,000 gold coins today!
He can't sleep soundly unless he brings some money back.
Lu Xingchen glanced at him: "I'm not buying!"
Xuanyuan Batian: "How about I sell them cheaper? 1500 gold coins per sheep? I have five sheep here, I'll sell them all to you!"
He became even more smug.
In the original area, these sheep were almost worthless, but here they can be sold for as much as 1,500 each.
Moreover, it was sold to Lu Xingchen.
Thinking about it that way, he was overjoyed.
Lu Xingchen paused for a moment, then looked at Xuan Yuanbatian: "Since you have so much mutton, would you like to sell kebabs tomorrow? I can lend you my stall; just give me 5,000 yuan for the stall rental fee. Do you want it?"
Xuanyuan Batian gritted his teeth: "No!"
Lu Xingchen's eyes darted around: "Oh, so what are you planning to do with your sheep? Sell them to restaurants?"
Xuanyuan Batian had a sudden thought: That's right, he could sell the mutton to restaurants.
Now, the village of Frost and Snow is short of mutton; just selling mutton would make a lot of money.
He was too lazy to set up a stall, so he just went to find a restaurant.
Yes, let’s go tomorrow.
Thinking about ways to make money, Xuanyuan Batian felt much better.
Lu Xingchen was about to go upstairs.
Suddenly, Lanlan's voice came through: "Little Lu, Little Lu, those two greedy guards dragged the mute out. We know him, what's his name again? It's Aba Aba..."
Lu Xingchen was almost immediately certain he was hungry: "Don't worry, Qi!"
Lanlan: "Yes, yes, that's him, the mute chatterbox."
Since Qi Fangxin is here, Lu Haoyue must be here too.
Lu Xingchen's heart clenched: "Where are they?"
Two guards grabbed him and said they were going to throw him off the snowy mountain to die because he talked too much and they found it annoying.
Lu Xingchen immediately rushed out.
Xuanyuan Batian was preoccupied with figuring out how to sell mutton and ignored him.
Lu Xingchen ran all the way and finally caught up with the two guards at the entrance of Frost Snow Village.
At this point, the two guards were furious:
