A day and a night had passed since Old Lady Li and Li Jian teamed up to drug her and sell her to Butler Qian.

She was really worried that her parents would be so sad when they saw that she was gone and couldn't find her anywhere.

Thinking of this, Li Mengyue wished she could grow wings and fly back quickly.

[Save the woman in Jingyuan, gratitude value +100]

Li Mengyue was originally walking quickly, but when she heard the sound of gratitude value +100, she immediately stopped.

Before Li Mengyue could call the system, Tuanzi was already jumping and cheering.

[Wow! The host is awesome. He saved more than 100 people at once. The gratitude value increased by . ]

Seeing Tuanzi so happy, Li Mengyue suddenly felt that this day and night of work was not in vain, and she felt that saving people was more fulfilling than killing people.

Everyone was happy for a while, then started on their way again.

Just less than a cup of tea later, the system's exclamation came out.

【What's wrong, Tuanzi? 】

Worried that something might have gone wrong with the system, Li Mengyue immediately stopped and sank into her consciousness.

Since learning that she was bound to the system and living with the system for such a long period of time, Li Mengyue has never seen such a cautious expression on the system's face.

Just as Li Mengyue was about to ask, the system opened its mouth wide in shock.

[Host...Host, the ability of the Wind-Earing Ear has been restored. 】

Hearing Tuanzi say this, Li Mengyue knew that it was the newly added gratitude value that played a role.

100 gratitude points can give Tuanzi the ability of super hearing. If there are more gratitude points, what other abilities will be restored? It is really exciting.

[Tuanzi, what's the use of the super hearing? 】

When it comes to what it can do, the system is very arrogant.

Tuanzi put his hands on his hips, puffed up his belly, looked up, and said proudly: "Host, I can hear the voices and thoughts of people within a hundred meters. As long as someone wants to harm the host, they can't hide it from me if they tell me how to harm the host. I can protect the host in the future."

After saying this, he waited for the host's praise.

What was surprising was that Li Mengyue actually heard the system's voice and clapped her hands a few times out of respect.

[Please protect me from now on! 】

Seeing that the host agreed to let it protect it, the system nodded modestly.

[No, I can't bear it! Tuanzi, you are really too cute. ]

Li Mengyue couldn't help but burst out laughing when she saw how cute Tuanzi was.

Just when the atmosphere between Li Mengyue and the system was extremely warm, the system sounded an alarm.

[There is someone nearby who is harmful to the host. 】

The system then listened carefully and found that there were six people on their way within a hundred meters.

The leader walked in front, followed by five followers. Except for the leader, everyone else was holding an iron rod, giving people the impression that they were not easy to mess with.

"Brother, do you think Li Jian can come up with a hundred taels of silver?"

The leader said: "It doesn't matter whether you can take it out or not. Take it out so that the brothers don't have to fight. If you can't take it out, hmph!"

The rest of the people understood what the eldest brother meant. Besides, people in their line of work were very familiar with collecting debts, so they didn't need the eldest brother to tell them; they knew what to do.

"Hey! You said, Li Jian is a scholar, but he didn't study hard. He went to the gambling house and gambled away all the money he had. He even had the guts to borrow money from loan sharks."

"They are poor yet dare to take drugs. One hundred taels of silver is not a small amount. I wonder if their family can afford it."

There was a short man with a pointed face and monkey cheeks in the crowd who said disdainfully: "It doesn't matter if you can't produce it. The land deeds, house deeds, women and children can all be used to pay off the debt."

He touched his chin and continued, "My second aunt's cousin is from Xinghua Village. I heard from him that Li Jian's second brother's biological daughter has returned, and she came from the capital."

"Monkey, now that you mention it, I remember that there is indeed a fake daughter from the capital in Xinghua Village. She is extremely beautiful and can make people fall in love with her at first sight. Could she be Li Jian's niece?"

"You guessed right. I really hope that the Li family can't come up with the money. This way, we have a legitimate reason to take her away and send her to Hongxiu Tower. Such a beautiful girl cannot be sold without two hundred taels of silver."

The person next to him continued, "Before we sell it to Hongxiulou, can we... Hehe, if we can spend a night with a girl from the capital, our life will be worth it."

The man named Monkey kicked the man fiercely and said angrily: "What are you talking about? Only virgin girls can be sold at a high price if they are sent to Hongxiu Tower. Let me tell you, if you can't control your lower body and ruin our plan to make money, not to mention the boss, I will not forgive you."

The thugs, whose heads were full of yellow garbage, saw the monkey getting angry, and even if they were kicked, they did not dare to show any dissatisfaction.

After all, among them, except for the boss, the monkey is not only cruel but also very ruthless.

Even though monkeys are fighters just like them, they are still a little afraid of them.

Seeing that everyone had put away their lustful thoughts, Monkey smiled again. However, no matter how happy he was, it still looked a little out of place on his face, which was difficult to describe.

Then the monkey ran to the leader and said flatteringly, "Boss, we are taking the fake daughter from the capital away. We can't sleep with her. Can you let the brothers touch her first?"

“Monkey, have you ever thought that the Li family can come up with a hundred taels of silver?”

"Boss, are you kidding me? We brothers make quite a bit of money, only two taels of silver a month, and one hundred taels would take five years to save even if we don't eat or drink. I've inquired about it, and the Li family is just an ordinary family. They had more land in the past few years, but no matter how much the land yielded, it couldn't compare to having a scholar in the family. From my guess, Li Jian's studies probably drained the Li family out, otherwise they wouldn't have only lent five taels of silver."

"In addition, Li Jian took part in the college's exam, but was reported for plagiarism and expelled from the college. That's why he was in a bad mood and went to the casino."

The eldest brother listened to the monkey's words, pondered for a while, and felt that it made sense. However, he was used to being cautious and careful, so he did not dare to be careless, and still gave instructions.

"There is only one hour left, so keep your eyes open, brothers. If the Li family can come up with a hundred taels, then follow the rules of the underworld and leave after collecting the silver. If not, the fake daughter will be ours."

"Yes, boss."

[Oh my! Host, something bad has happened. Someone wants to sell you to Hongxiulou.]
