Chapter 123 I'll take you home when the sun rises
Lan Xiyue walked over and saw two servants dozing on the steps at the door, their heads leaning against each other, with saliva hanging from the corners of their mouths.
Lan Xiyue approached silently, her figure like a ghost, and suddenly attacked, her palms as fast as lightning, directly chopping the back of the necks of the two servants.
With two "thumps", the two servants fell limply to the ground and fell into a deep sleep.
Lan Xiyue pushed open the door, walked in with big strides, and closed the door tightly behind her.
An Yi asked doubtfully, "What does Miss Lan want to do?"
The room was dark, with only a faint moonlight filtering through the window lattice, casting patches of light on the ground.
Lan Xiyue slowly walked towards the bed in the faint light.
On the bed, Bai Jinbao was sleeping soundly with his girlfriend by his left and right.
"Tsk tsk tsk, it seems the beating was not light enough."
Lan Xiyue's mind flashed, and a silver needle suddenly appeared in her hand, flashing with cold light.
He quickly put sleeping bags on the three people on the bed. They instantly fell into a deep sleep, their breathing becoming steady and deep.
Lan Xiyue stood by the bed, looking at Bai Jinbao with complicated eyes. To be honest, she and Bai Jinbao had no grudge against each other. The last time Bai Jinbao teased her, she had taken revenge on the spot and beat him back.
She will be a good person today and get rid of the evil for the people!
Lan Xiyue waved the silver needle in her hand again.
It was the source of his evil deeds - his crotch. The silver needle was like lightning, and Bai Jinbao's body trembled violently, but then he fell into a deep sleep again.
Lan Xiyue took the silver needle and said, "Okay, it's done. I won't get an erection anymore. Let's see how you can harm innocent women."
"Tsk... Women are indeed the most vicious!" The system's voice sounded in Lan Xiyue's mind, with a hint of teasing.
Lan Xiyue rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "System, what do you know? Don't use random words. I'm telling you that these women are getting rid of this evil."
Lan Xiyue turned and walked towards the door, but suddenly she stopped and her body stiffened.
System: "Host, what's wrong with you?"
"It suddenly occurred to me that I don't know what Xiaozhen looks like either. How am I supposed to find her?"
Alas! The old man was so pitiful that she could only search from room to room.
When walking into a room, Lan Xiyue vaguely discovered something on the ground.
Lan Xiyue walked closer and squatted down, then she could see clearly and counted them. It turned out that there were eight women sleeping on the floor.
Lan Xiyue woke someone up. The person opened his eyes in a daze and saw a man in black standing in front of him. He subconsciously wanted to scream.
Lan Xiyue was quick to cover her mouth and said coldly, "Don't scream, or I'll break your neck."
The woman was so frightened that she trembled all over and nodded repeatedly.
Lan Xiyue said in a deep voice, "Let me ask you, is there someone named Xiaozhen here?"
The woman shook her head in fear, her eyes filled with terror.
Lan Xiyue frowned and asked, "Do you know Xiaozhen?"
This time, a hint of hesitation flashed in the woman's eyes.
"Tell me the truth, or I'll kill you." After saying that, Lan Xiyue let go of her mouth.
"Xiaozhen...she was...beaten with a stick by the Second Young Master and locked up in the woodshed."
"You...why are you guys huddled in one room? And sleeping on the floor?"
The woman's eyes dimmed when she heard this. "I... was sold to the Second Young Master by my father. Some of the women here were snatched away by the Second Young Master, while others, like me, were sold by their parents. Some stayed willingly, having no other choice; others were like the walking corpse, having lost the will to live. Xiaozhen refused to surrender, so the Second Young Master ordered his men to whip her twenty times and lock her in the woodshed, saying that she was to be left to fend for herself."
Knowing what she wanted to know, Lan Xiyue knocked the woman unconscious in an instant. These women were pitiful, but she was not a savior, and it was difficult for her to take everyone away by herself.
Lan Xiyue went to the woodshed, opened the lock and walked in.
In the dim light, a figure huddled in the corner, almost blending into the night.
Lan Xiyue walked closer, squatted down, and with a slight movement of her mind, a night pearl appeared out of thin air, emitting a soft and mysterious light, illuminating the corner.
Her eyes focused on the curled up figure. She saw that the woman was in tattered clothes, and her exposed skin was covered with shocking whip marks.
Lan Xiyue gently patted the woman's cheek, "Hey, wake up..."
After calling for a long time, the woman's eyelids trembled slightly and she opened her eyes in a daze.
"ah……"
Lan Xiyue immediately covered her mouth and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you. Don't scream, and I'll let go of your mouth."
The woman nodded, and Lan Xiyue released her mouth and asked, "Is your name Xiaozhen?"
A hint of doubt flashed in Xiaozhen's eyes. "Who...you...are...you? How do you know my name?"
"I'm here to save you."
A spark of hope instantly lit up in Xiaozhen's eyes: "Really?" There was a slight tremor in her voice, which was the joy and excitement of rain after a long drought.
Lan Xiyue nodded slightly and helped the weak Xiaozhen up.
However, as soon as Xiaozhen stood up, she collapsed back down again, "I've been hungry for a few days. I've only survived on a bowl of porridge every day. I really don't have the strength to walk."
Seeing this, Lan Xiyue carried Xiaozhen on her back without hesitation. Her back was strong and warm. Xiaozhen was startled again and wanted to struggle, but Lan Xiyue's gentle words soothed her: "Don't move, I'll take you home."
After saying this, Lan Xiyue carried the weak Xiaozhen on her back, dodged the patrolling guards all the way, and climbed out of the wall with great effort.
"I'm finally out, woo..." Xiaozhen's tears fell on Lan Xiyue's shoulders like beads that had broken off the string. That was the joy of surviving the disaster.
Lan Xiyue carried Xiaozhen on her back and returned to the Wuguo Marquis Mansion.
Return to Xilingyuan and put Xiaozhen down.
Lan Xiyue walked to the table, drank several glasses of water, and was still gasping for breath.
"Come, I'll treat your wound."
Lan Xiyue's voice was soft, but Xiaozhen was nervous, with shyness and fear mixed together, and she was reluctant to take off her clothes.
Seeing this, Lan Xiyue reached out without hesitation and tore open Xiaozhen's shirt, revealing the shocking scars.
Lan Xiyue gave Xiaozhen acupuncture and applied medicine.
After a simple treatment, Lan Xiyue was so tired that she didn't want to move.
"It's still half an hour before dawn. You should get some sleep first. I'll take you home when it's daybreak."
Lan Xiyue walked to the bed, took off her nightgown, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep in a short while.
Xiaozhen was lying on the small couch, feeling calm. It turned out that the person who saved her was a woman. She just said that she would take her home after daybreak. Xiaozhen couldn't stop crying.
