Luo Xie was just about to go to the imperial capital to see a doctor, when he suddenly remembered that the doctor might be looking for him everywhere. Why on earth would he have to go to the imperial capital? Isn't that just walking into a trap?

Forget it, I’d better not go. There are good doctors in other places. I don’t have to go to the capital. If I really get caught, I won’t have a chance to escape.

Luo Xie went in the opposite direction, looking for a county town to recuperate. He wanted to stay alive first, as saving his life was the most important thing.

Luo Xie went to Wanxian, a place which was not far from the imperial capital.

The next day, the two came to the place where Luo Xie died.

"Where is the person? Could it be that he is not dead yet?"

"Impossible. I clearly pierced his heart. There's no way he could be alive. I've never failed before. It's even more impossible for me to fail against a weakling like him. Don't even think about it."

"How can you be like this? Now is not the time to shirk responsibility. Now is the time to find the person. If he is alive, we must find him. If he is dead, we must find his body. Otherwise, our trip today will be in vain."

"We are taking a big risk coming out today, you have to understand that."

"What about the body?"

"Maybe it was eaten by wild dogs."

"There must be bones and pieces of clothing left after eating. It's impossible that the vulture ate all the bones and swallowed all the clothes. He must have at least 1000 taels of silver on him."

"1000 taels, isn't it 500 taels?"

"At least 1000 taels. I would never have remembered it wrong. If I hadn't forgotten it when I left, I would have been afraid that leaving the city would arouse suspicion. I thought I would come back in a few days, but I didn't expect such a thing to happen."

"Ah, it seems that I am not going to be lucky enough to get this thousand taels of silver. It's all your fault. When I asked you to feel the breath of the person, you just didn't do it. Now the person is gone. The two of us can't even think of getting a penny."

"Humph, blame me."

"Now is not the time to say this. The person has not been found. We have to treat this matter as done and the person is completely dead. Otherwise, if it is really found that the person is not dead, you and I will not be able to escape responsibility."

The two parted unhappily. Not only did they not get the silver, but they also found out that the person was not dead.

At this moment, they hoped more than anyone else that Luo Xie would run far away so that no one could find them.

A month later Luo Xie went to see the doctor.

"You've recovered very well, it's because you're strong. If it were someone else, they might have really died. You still need to take good care of your injuries and not do heavy work. This way you'll recover faster."

"Okay, will there be any problems in the future? After all, this is the heart."

"It shouldn't be a big problem. You're just lucky. The jade pendant blocked your heart. Otherwise, you would definitely not be able to survive. After all, if your heart is pierced, even the King of Hell can't save you."

Luo Xie now thinks that it is fortunate that he had the timing to place the jade pendant on the heart, otherwise he would really be dead now. It was all because of that damned old bitch Lihua. He was injured at that time. If she hadn't watched him die without saving him, how could he have fallen to this point.

If I meet this damn woman again, I will never let her go. Even that Xiao Ye Zhong is not a good person, so I will not be merciful.

Luo Xie felt relieved when he heard what the doctor said. Since he was fine and had money, he could find a maid to serve him. He felt satisfied just thinking about it.

Luo Xie went directly to the dental clinic.

"Boss, do you have any women with good looks to serve as maids?"

When the shopkeeper heard this, he immediately understood.

"What do you think of this woman?"

Luo Xie was stunned when he saw her. Wasn't this Lihua when she was young? She looked exactly like Lihua. People who didn't know her would think she was Lihua's daughter.

The shopkeeper thought Luo Xie was dumbfounded. The lion opened his mouth and said, "10 taels of silver."

Luo Xie looked at the shopkeeper in front of him as if he were an idiot.

"For this kind of stuff, you told me that you want 10 taels of silver. You must be crazy for the silver."

Luo Xie asked the girl to step forward.

"Look at her, she's so skinny. There's not even 200 grams of flesh on her body. I despise her. Look at her hands, they're so rough that even a servant like me can't stand them, let alone our master."

"You really think we are stupid and not picky. I want any woman, heng."

"Boss, if you say this is your top-notch product, then you are destroying your reputation. From now on, I will say that you don't have any good stuff here, and that you are just filling in the gaps."

The shopkeeper felt guilty. The girl in front of him did not look outstanding. Long-term malnutrition made them look pale and thin. They did not look very good. Moreover, this owner had been here for a while, and he had never heard her say a word. Even when he hit her, she did not say a word. She might be dumb and had to eat her own food every day. It was better to deal with her cheaply.

"Okay, then I'll sell it to you at a low price, two taels of silver."

Luo Xie was also angry, "Two taels of silver for this kind of stuff. I think it would be better if you sold your wife and your son to me, and returned the two taels of silver."

"It's settled, 800 copper coins, you can sell it or not. A woman like this can't do any heavy work, and she needs to eat a lot of food every day. She looks so thin, maybe she's not in good health, and I'm afraid my money is wasted."

After Luo Xie finished speaking, he looked at the woman carefully.

After Luo Xie said this, the shopkeeper panicked even more. He could still make some money from the sale now. If he waited for someone to die, it would be a loss to him and he would also waste the food for this period of time.

The shopkeeper had an idea when he heard what Luo Xie said, "Okay, but I want to make it clear to you, no refunds, no exchanges. Write it down in black and white. I won't exchange it if there are any problems."

"Purchasing slaves requires approval from the government. Once you buy it, you can't regret it, or you'll think I'm cheating you. Here, here are the documents, sign them."

The shopkeeper moved very quickly, so quickly that Luo Xie didn't even have time to react before the documents were already in front of him.

"Okay, I'll sign."

After signing, Luo Xie took out a silver note for one hundred taels from his pocket and asked the shopkeeper for change.

The shopkeeper was so angry when he saw the 10 taels that Luo Xie gave him. This man was not poor at all, he was just stingy. He was unwilling to give 800 or taels of silver out of taels, but he gave himself copper coins instead. "

"Humph, you tricked me, and I tricked you. We're even now. But I still didn't gain any advantage, and I still feel uncomfortable.

The shopkeeper gave Luo Xie the change angrily. Luo Xie was very happy and bought some snacks to go back.

After bringing people back home, Luo Xie kept chattering away. Luo Xie saw that the woman opposite him didn't react at all.

Suddenly, I remembered, "Look at my poor memory. I was so happy to be back that I forgot to name you. From now on, you will be called Yali. What a nice name.

“It is both noble and elegant, yet beautiful and generous.”

Luo Xie said so much, but Yali on the other side didn't say a word, her body was shaking all the time. Luo Xie initially thought that she was just scared because she had just arrived here, so he didn't take it seriously. Now it seems that this is not the case.

Luo Xie was so happy before, thinking that he had gotten a great bargain. He was so proud of himself, thinking that he was extremely lucky today. He bought a woman for only 800 copper coins. After taking her home, she would grow fat and give birth to a child for him. It was a great bargain.

Now it seems that I have been taken advantage of.
