Li Qingluo shook her head and said, "Miss, I'm really scared of you. I opened the door for you out of kindness because you asked for help, but you ended up almost killing the three of us."
"If we hadn't been so smart, I'm afraid we would have ended up like your murdered maids, right?"
"I dare not help you anymore!"
Li Qingluo bit her lip and turned her head away.
Upon hearing this, Li Qingzhu burst into tears and stared at Li Qingluo and the others with an extremely pitiful and pleading look.
Que'er whispered, "Girl, let's ignore her."
Li Qingluo: "I know."
Just then, footsteps were heard outside, coming towards them.
Li Qingluo and the other two immediately lowered their heads, took the initiative to put the cloth in their mouths again, and pretended that everything had happened.
When the three of them came in again, Li Qingzhu seemed to want to complain. She stood up straight and kept sobbing, and raised her head towards Li Qingluo and the others.
Unfortunately, those three people didn't understand what she meant.
Moreover, after looking at Li Qingluo and the other two, he saw that they had innocent expressions on their faces and were all behaving well, while Li Qingzhu was making a lot of noise.
An impatient bandit raised his hand and slapped Li Qingzhu hard.
"What are you arguing about? If you keep arguing, I'll kill you!"
Li Qingzhu's face instantly became red and swollen. She whimpered and screamed in pain, but could only fall into the arms of the woman beside her. However, after screaming in pain, she didn't even dare to cry out loud.
As the sky gradually darkened, another person held a torch while the other two squatted on the ground and untied the hands of Li Qingzhu and Li Qingluo.
"Write!"
They tore off a piece of each of their skirts and spread them on the ground.
Li Qingzhu sat on the ground in a daze, not knowing how to write. After all, they didn't even provide a pen or ink.
Li Qingluo looked at his fingers, raised his hand and bit them.
Then drops of blood fell on the brocade, and she wrote a letter.
Li Qingzhu was afraid of pain and kept hiding her hands behind her back. The bandit grabbed her and pulled her forward, cutting a large wound with a knife.
Blood immediately gushed out like a column, and Li Qingzhu almost fainted again. She was slapped on the other side of the face by the gangster who had just hit her, and even the cloth gag in her mouth was blown out.
"Bitch! I'm telling you straight, if you don't listen, don't blame me for being rude. I'm afraid this precious flower of yours won't be able to withstand my ravages in just a few strokes."
Li Qingluo was trembling with fear, but she had to speak honestly, "My dear gentlemen, I was just talking nonsense before. In fact, I am not a member of the prince's family at all!"
"Actually, I'm Li Qingzhu, the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion in Dongyin Lane. Please forgive me, I don't even know any prince—"
"Dare to lie to me?"
Upon hearing this, the bandit became even more angry and grabbed Li Qingzhu's clothes: "Bitch! I don't care about your status as a rich and beautiful woman! You deserve to die for cheating on me——"
Just as the other party was about to pinch Li Qingzhu's neck again, he was stopped by another person who had been silent nearby.
"Stop! Who are you?"
Li Qingzhu closed her eyes and replied with tears on her face: "I am, I am actually the eldest daughter of the General's Mansion in Dongyin Lane, Li Qingzhu..."
The man snorted coldly, "How dare you lie? You'd better tell the truth!"
"Four months ago, a fire broke out in the General's Mansion in Dongyin Lane. Rumor has it that the eldest daughter—no, now the rumors are all over the streets that she was just a fake young lady—burned herself to death in the fire!"
"If you are her, then who is the one who died?"
"How dare you walk around the streets brazenly, pretending to be some prince's relative?"
"If you are not honest, I might as well pull out your tongue first!"
After that person screamed, a strange smell suddenly came from the room, and then everyone saw a puddle of water flowing out from under Li Qingzhu's skirt.
Everyone: ...
Even the gangster who was strangling her neck immediately threw her away in disgust.
"That's it? She's the eldest daughter of the general's family! How disgusting! So dirty!"
Li Qingzhu couldn't bear the humiliation, but was even more afraid of death. She could only hug herself tightly: "Please forgive me, please forgive me. I am really Li Qingzhu, the eldest daughter of the general's mansion. I really am..."
Looking at her, she seemed to be frightened to the point of losing her mind.
The man holding the torch also said at this time: "I see she doesn't tell a single truth. Let's just kill her!"
Li Qingzhu doesn't want to die!
She hugged the bandit's legs and cried, "I have it! I have a token, I really have a token!"
As she spoke, she took out a jade pendant from her neck.
"This is the jade pendant my mother gave me when I came of age. There's only one of its kind in the world! If you take it and the letter to my mother, she will definitely believe it!"
"By then, she'll know I'm not dead. She'll even come with money to redeem me. My mother and father will even do whatever you want!"
"They regard me as the apple of their eye and will never abandon me!"
Holding the jade pendant in their hands, the three of them looked at each other.
Then let Li Qingzhu write a blood oath quickly and stop talking nonsense.
Li Qingzhu was crying like a pear blossom in the rain. She lowered her head and did not dare to delay any longer. She wrote on a whole handkerchief.
On the other hand, Li Qingluo had finished writing long ago and had even watched a play.
When Li Qingluo handed these few brief words to the three people, they looked at her deeply.
"Just a few words?"
Li Qingluo was not as frightened as other girls. On the contrary, she was the complete opposite of Li Qingzhu. She was so calm that she didn't look like she had been kidnapped.
This made the three of them notice something unusual.
Originally, they could have killed her!
However, if you want to make more money, it's not a bad idea.
Their Lotus Sect was already short of money, so what was wrong with asking these high-ranking officials in Jinling to contribute some more?
That's why Li Qingluo appeared here safely.
But she wasn't afraid?
Is he pretending, or is he really not afraid of them?
"Whose family are you from?"
Li Qingluo took the cloth from his mouth and said quietly, "Gentlemen, may I have a moment with you?"
Holding the two women's blood-written letters, the relatively calm bandit stared at her. He didn't immediately agree, but asked, "What do you want to say?"
Li Qingluo: "Of course there is information that you three want. If you are not satisfied, you can kill me."
The three of them looked at each other again. The man holding the blood letter obviously didn't take her seriously at all, so he turned and walked out: "Follow me."
Li Qingluo was about to stand up when she was grabbed by Nanny Deng and Que'er.
"girl……"
Li Qingluo shook her head at them, indicating that she knew what was going on, and then walked out without hesitation.
"Tell me, who are you—?"
As soon as he walked out of the door, a knife was placed across Li Qingluo's neck.
