Yan Qingqiu said: "It's really strange that they just left us here and ignored us. I'm hungry, why don't we go to the street to buy some food."
"If the three of us want to go out, it won't be too difficult." Meidie said.
An Yan said nothing. She walked into the yard and saw many torches lit in front of her. It seemed that some important event was going to be held, and many people were walking back and forth.
Yan Qingqiu also heard the noise. He walked over to An Yan and asked, "What happened up front?"
"It seems like it just became lively. Why don't we go and take a look, or take this opportunity to leave the Zhou Mansion? What do you think?" Mei Die asked them.
An Yan thought for a moment, and then said to Yan Qingqiu and Mei Die: "This is fine, I don't want to live here, let's go ahead and take a look, and then leave here when they are not prepared."
The three of them reached a consensus and went forward.
A man was tied up in the front yard, and there were four bags beside him. No one knew what was in them, but blood could be seen oozing out of them.
That person was the man she had met before, the man that Chu Nu called a bastard.
Yan Qingqiu was lying on the wall. He looked into the yard. There weren't many people there. All the torches were lit, so it was very bright. He saw a middle-aged man standing in the middle, with the young man who came out to greet him next to him. He frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
"Oh no, how come this man was captured by them?" An Yan frowned.
Meidie pinched another butterfly out from her fingertips and asked it to fly to the middle to listen to the group of people talking.
Because of the distance, it was difficult to hear clearly, but after the butterfly transmitted the sound, it became much clearer. I heard the butterfly flapping its wings, transmitting the words of the middle-aged man.
He was saying to the boy, "This is bad. I have spent so much effort to raise these four big tigers, but they were beaten to death. How can we establish our authority in Taiping City in the future? How can you be a hero? How can we control the residents in the city to obey us?"
"No one knows yet, except us." The boy comforted his father not to worry.
The middle-aged man added: "Tigers are a must, otherwise we won't be able to scare the people in the city, the nobles and the royal family, and our words won't have the final say."
"We can get two more tigers."
"It's easier said than done. It took us a lot of effort to find those tigers. Besides, the woods need to be rearranged, otherwise the tigers might escape at any time." The middle-aged man was extremely anxious.
The boy said, "Let's get rid of that person first, and then we can talk about the follow-up."
The middle-aged man nodded and said, "I wonder if the West City Lord is willing to stay."
"I think we should let those three people go. They may not be willing to help us, and if they refuse to obey, it will still be disadvantageous to us." said the young man.
The middle-aged man nodded slightly and said, "That's true. It would be a good idea to let them stay and let us take over the West City. After all, the resources here are limited. No matter how rich we are, we can't get much richer. We should find a new place."
"It will happen eventually." The boy smiled.
These words fell clearly into the ears of An Yan and the other two. They were not surprised, as they had long guessed that these people had bad intentions, but they did not expect them to be so shameless.
Seeing the middle-aged man on the other side heading towards the man, he said, “Do you know what you did wrong? These four big tigers are divine tigers, and you actually killed them.”
"What's wrong with beating them to death? They bit my wife to death, so they deserve to die." The man didn't care. He had just chopped the tiger dozens of times and didn't feel it was too much.
The middle-aged man said, "You deserve to die too. I will send you and your wife to heaven together." He then signaled his servants to come over and stab him to death with a spear.
But the servant found that he had no strength, which made the middle-aged man and the young man a little frightened.
An Yan flew out and stood beside the man, breaking the spear that was about to kill him. He then said, "Come at me if you have anything to do with me. He didn't kill the tiger, I did."
The middle-aged man was surprised and said, "You are so brave!"
"You still have the nerve to say that we are brave? We are not as brave as you. Isn't it hard to write, direct and act in our own films? You pretend to be a Bodhisattva on one hand and a devil on the other." Yan Qingqiu also jumped out to accuse him and stood steadily beside An Yan.
"You outsiders, I originally wanted to entertain you with good intentions, but I didn't expect you to be so nosy." The middle-aged man frowned.
"This man is innocent, and you are not allowed to hurt even a hair on his head." An Yan stated her intentions calmly.
And Meidie had already untied the rope on the man.
An Yan added: "Didn't you just say you wanted to find a new place? You can leave now. Let this man live in this house."
"Who do you think you are? Will the residents of the city listen to you?" The middle-aged man sneered.
Meidie smiled and waved her hands, and found that many butterflies flew out. She said, "Just now, I have spread all your conversations to all parts of the city. They already know your ambitions. Now, you have no choice but to leave."
"You!" The middle-aged man was so angry that he started to attack An Yan.
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
An Yan moved lightly and stepped back, then tied the rope that had just tied up the man to the middle-aged man, while the young man planned to escape.
Yan Qingqiu stopped him and threw him to the center.
At this time, many people rushed into the mansion, almost tearing down the door of the mansion, and the threshold was trampled to pieces.
Another person flew down, he was wearing a white robe, although the clothes were simple, but he exuded nobility. He said: "I have always suspected that Zhou Fu killed people with his left hand and copied scriptures with his right hand, and it turned out to be true."
The middle-aged man sneered at the man in white robes: "You are such a useless thing, and now you want to steal the credit. This shows how shameless and incompetent you nobles are."
An Yan glanced at Yan Qingqiu and Mei Die, indicating that they should go with her.
Tonight is a sleepless night. The people in the city cheered. They will no longer be threatened by the tiger. The man has become a hero and will surely live in this city without worries about food and clothing.
The father and son from the Zhou family were also driven out of the city overnight.
An Yan also left the city. She knew that everyone in the city was having fun and had no time to settle her down.
Therefore, Yan Qingqiu, Mei Die, and An Yan went out of the city together. Fortunately, there was a thatched hut at the foot of the mountain outside the city. Although it had been in disrepair for many years, it was still a good place to stay for one night as it could shelter them from the wind and rain.
A fire was built between the three of them, and a few fish were being roasted.
Yan Qingqiu said: "It's really miserable. We can only live here and eat these fish without even the intestines removed."
"Let's just leave it at that. We are not here to enjoy ourselves. We should get to the Dark Moon Realm earlier." An Yan was only thinking about this matter and didn't care about anything else.
Meidie said: "When we return to Xicheng, we must have a good meal."
"Of course, let the old man prepare it for us. It will definitely be delicious." Yan Qingqiu was already greedy and couldn't wait to go back to West City.
At this time, the sound of horse hooves was heard outside.
Yan Qingqiu immediately went out to see, and it was the man in the white robe. He said, "Lord of West City, please come out and see me."
