The officers found some wood ash, sprinkled it on the wounds of these people, and then threw them into prison.
Lu Yunxi lowered her head, listening to the group of people cursing and hiding the smile on her lips.
Maybe others don’t understand, but as a native of this place, she knows the laws here by heart.
That’s right, speaking ill of others in public will be punished, and the punishment is quite severe, even greater than the crime of vandalism.
Although she didn't know why the law was set like this, at least the current situation was much better than she had imagined. Shen San didn't kill anyone, so he would be released after being imprisoned for a few days at most.
People like Lu Yunxi could leave on the spot.
Because she had difficulty moving, the government officials sent her back to the inn.
Shen San stayed in jail for several days before being released.
He was released that day.
"Sir, I accidentally damaged the floor on the street. How much silver do I have to pay?"
"You don't have to pay compensation. Your master has already paid for the street. She also hired a lot of craftsmen to repair the road. It's better than the previous one." The officer glanced at him and said casually.
Shen San was stunned.
When that group of people insulted and mocked the master, he was very angry. Who would have thought that when he went to beat them up, the master actually stopped him!
He was clearly standing up for his master!
Thinking of his master's expression at that time, his heart ached and he felt extremely uncomfortable.
But now... the master paid compensation for him.
He really didn't understand what his master was thinking.
What could Lu Yunxi be thinking? Was she out of her mind trying to protect those idiots?! She was probably just afraid that Shen San would go to jail for murder!
Three to five years is just the beginning; many sentences are much longer than that. Furthermore, the prison sentence requires you to spend the full time in-game, and there's no button to speed things up! Furthermore, time spent offline doesn't count; you must spend the full three years in-game!
Even if you want to change your account, it is impossible. The game "Ancient" is identity-bound, and each person has one account.
When Shen San came over to ask, she was surprised, but she still explained it in detail.
The two of them then started talking.

The days of Lu Yunxi and Shen San passed peacefully.
Their lives were very regular. They would get up at nine in the morning to have breakfast, then Shen San would push Lu Yunxi to go for a walk outside, then go back to the inn for lunch, and then go out to bask in the sun again in the afternoon. After dinner, they would clean up and go to bed. The day passed like this.
But it rained heavily today.
“Master, I’m afraid there’s no way to go out today.” Shen San had a headache.
The doctor said that there were too many toxins in the master's body, and the medicines she used were very cold, which had already damaged the yang energy in her body. If she could not continue to bask in the sun, the coldness in her body would become more and more serious. On rainy days, her legs, feet and knees would be cold and painful, which was very unbearable.
Lu Yunxi had no idea what the doctor had said to his apprentice in private. He simply nodded and looked at the chess pieces on the board: "It doesn't matter."
Her body is gradually recovering. In fact, there are not many drugs that damage her body. Most of the toxins act on her face.
Seeing his master's indifferent look, Shen San gradually regained his composure.
"Master, can I play a game with you?" He had just learned to play chess recently and found it quite interesting.
"Okay." She raised her eyebrows, a little surprised that her apprentice could play chess. When she saw her apprentice's confident face, she also became interested.
"Wait! Master, I just made a wrong move!"
"No, Master, you saw it wrong. I actually went down here!"
"Master, please give me two more steps! No, five steps, no change, just five steps!"
It only took ten minutes for Shen San to go from being full of confidence at the beginning, to scratching his head, and then to playing tricks.
These few short minutes were enough for her to see clearly that her own apprentice was a terrible chess player!
She shook her head helplessly, but in the end she still followed her apprentice's wishes and made a few concessions.
However, no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't win.
The rain was pattering, and the room was silent except for the sound of chess pieces being moved.
They were comfortable here, but they didn't know that people were talking about them in faraway places.
In the pitch-black room, the curtains were drawn tightly, with only a candle providing some light.
The two people in the room sat facing each other across the table. The light and shadow flickered, and they couldn't see each other's faces clearly.
"How was it? Was it successful?"
"Don't worry, that woman surnamed Lu has been poisoned. Her face has been completely destroyed. I guarantee it's so ugly that no one would even want to look at it."
"That's good. I'll have someone deliver the money to the old place tomorrow night at nine o'clock. You can send someone to pick it up yourself."
"Okay, dear guest, if you need anything else, just send someone to find me. I promise to provide you with the best service!"
After a sound of footsteps, the door opened and a beam of light came in, and in the next second, the door was closed again.
The room returned to darkness.
The person sitting at the table looked up at the flickering candle, with a strange light flashing in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, it's all your fault that you're blocking my way..."
