Xuanyuan Batian suppressed his anger for a long time, but finally couldn't help but say, "Brothers, since there are no lambs, shouldn't we return the gold coins I gave you earlier?"
Guard A's expression changed drastically. He kicked the stone bench next to him with a "bang" and asked, "What did you say?"
Guard B said coolly, "Arrest him!"
Guard A: "Heh, you're the first person who dared to ask me to return the money. No one has ever been able to get the gold coins back from my purse!"
Guard B took out the chain: "Catch him!"
hateful!
So hateful!
Xuanyuan Batian was so angry that he had a headache.
However, he knew he couldn't offend these two people, so he had no choice but to swallow his anger and go home.
He came back angrily, but before he reached the door, he smelled the rich aroma of roasted lamb. When he arrived in the yard, he found Lu Xingchen and his group gathered together to roast a lamb.
Huh? Little lamb?
Where did they get the lambs?
Didn't they roast all the sheep yesterday?
Xuanyuan Batian's expression changed several times.
Xuanyuan Lingyun got down and gently pulled Xuanyuan Batian away, saying, "Brother, they've been preparing the roast lamb since early this morning. I took a look, and it seems like that lamb is ours. Brother, you didn't sell the lamb to her, did you?"
Xuanyuan Batian's expression changed: "How is this possible!"
Xuanyuan Lingyun murmured, "Then where did she get the lamb?"
Yesterday, Mingming said there was no more mutton.
Moreover, most people break down mutton, and very few people can carry a whole lamb.
They were able to bring lambs, and whole lambs at that, because Badao liked them, and they would bring two for him every time they went out!
Xuanyuan Batian gritted his teeth in hatred: "It must have been stolen!"
Lu Xingchen stole the lamb at the entrance of the village!
Absolutely!
Xuanyuan Batian turned around to complain, but stopped after taking only a few steps.
Those two guards are robbers. If he goes to complain, the chances of success are very low, and he might even get swindled out of money.
Can’t go!
However, he couldn't accuse Lu Xingchen either.
He didn't see Lu Xingchen stealing the sheep.
Lu Xingchen turned the lamb over with a smile and asked Ji Lao, "How is it? Is this lamb very tender?"
Old Ji nodded repeatedly: "So tender! Da Fu's cooking is excellent!"
Gao Dafu: "Hahaha, the main thing is that this lamb is also good, it's just the right age of three months, wonderful!"
Xuanyuan Batian's face darkened even more.
Three months old? One of his lambs was three months old.
However, he couldn't go over and expose Lu Xingchen.
First, Lu Xingchen won't admit it; second, there's another NPC who seems quite extraordinary.
He could only swallow his anger.
Why did he go to sell sheep?
If he hadn't sold the sheep, none of this would have happened, and he wouldn't have been unable to produce lambs when the NPCs asked for them.
Yes, why would he sell sheep?
Oh, right, it's because of a casual remark Lu Xingchen made yesterday.
Looking back now, maybe she didn't have good intentions at the time.
He's too cunning! He always thought Lu Xingchen was easy to deal with!
hateful!
Xuanyuan Batian's face darkened, and he turned and left.
The lamb wasn't big, but it was already crispy and fragrant after being roasted for less than three hours.
Old Ji ate a whole sheep with a satisfied smile and said to Lu Xingchen, "What do you need from me? Just say it!"
Lu Xingchen was just waiting for this line!
The old man was very tight-lipped. The three of them chatted with him for three hours but didn't get any useful information.
It's totally stingy.
She told the story of Lu Haoyue.
Old Ji picked his teeth: "This is easy, just wait a moment!"
He went back to his room, and within a few minutes, he took out a piece of paper with two large characters scrawled on it in a flamboyant, illegible hand: "Release them!"
Old Master Ji: "Go ahead!"
Lu Xingchen was taken aback.
Is it really that simple? Old Master Ji wouldn't be lying to her, would he?
