Xiao Cunyu could just walk away, but could Li Chu? Such a huge pit was indeed worrying. If someone died, he would bring even more shame to the Li family.
Li Chu gritted his teeth and filled the soil with the servant.
Over there, Xiao Cunyu shouted, then stopped after walking a few steps.
There's something wrong going on around here, there must be a master hiding.
Zhou Jingmao came on horseback today, while Xiao Cunyu, Wen Mianmian and her maid rode in a carriage. The carriage was big enough, and with the title of aunt, people wouldn't think too much of it.
"Do you smell a...bad smell?" Xiao Cunyu looked at Wen Mianmian.
Wen Mianmian was a little confused. She sniffed and shook her head.
"It seems you haven't mastered it yet." Xiao Cunyu gave her a look of disdain. "My good brother from outside has a precious life. He is the legitimate son of Marquis Yuyong, the future Marquis. If he dies here, I will tell everyone that you killed him."
"..." Wen Mianmian cursed in her heart first, then said helplessly: "What do you mean?"
The maid was even more ignorant.
"Listen carefully." Xiao Cunyu said.
Wen Mianmian calmed down, and then her eyes widened immediately: "It's not me... I just... accompanied you to dig for treasure. I don't know how this person from outside got here!"
At this time, he could no longer care about the little maid.
"I know." Xiao Cunyu nodded.
Wen Mianmian has been in the mansion for so long, and except for that day when she was so angry that she couldn't bear it anymore and wanted to make her suffer, she has never had the intention to kill him. If she wanted to kill him, there was no need to trick him here before doing it. Even bribing a servant to poison him would be much simpler than this method.
The master behind her was willing to give up the treasure worth nearly ten thousand taels, so there was no need for him to send someone to kill her at this time.
Therefore, the person hiding in the dark was either a thief who heard about the treasure and came to divide it up, or he was an enemy whom he had offended at some unknown time.
It’s all because he’s too outstanding and makes enemies everywhere.
Xiao Cunyu was not in a hurry and first took a look at the cause of his death.
It still had one year and two or three months to live. It was summer at that time, and there were many thunderstorms.
So - died from lightning strike.
Suddenly, she wanted to test whether her way of death was accurate. Could this crappy APP have just made up a random cause of death to fool her?
"Seventh Young Master wants me to protect Prince Zhou, right? But if I do that... I'll be exposed." Wen Mianmian glanced at the maid and hesitated.
She had clearly told others that she was a poor orphan who was powerless. If she suddenly acquired martial arts skills, outsiders would think that she had entered the Xiao family for ulterior motives, and all her efforts would be in vain. Moreover, the master would find out and would completely lose trust in her.
"My brother's life is at stake." Xiao Cunyu scratched his head.
Sure enough, wealth is not so easy to come by.
Wen Mianmian was very afraid of Xiao Cunyu, especially when she thought that the ghost of her deceased brother was in Xiao Cunyu's "hands", she dared not go against his wishes. At this time, she could only nod, and her hand silently reached to her thigh, and the next moment, she took out a sharp blade.
“…” The little maidservant trembled.
Isn't this Aunt Wen? Why is she suddenly holding a knife?!
Xiao Cunyu sat in the carriage, motionless.
"Hey, why are you stopping!" Zhou Jingmao shouted outside.
As soon as he finished speaking, with a "whoosh" sound, an arrow flew through the air and flew straight into the car window. Zhou Jingmao was shocked: "Xiao Qi, are you okay?"
