Lu Bu: My wife comes from two thousand years later

"Mercy, mercy, if you want money, just take it. I only ask that you spare my family's lives. I will be grateful to you forever, so grateful!"

Next to a forest outside Mayi City, an old man in well-dressed clothes knelt on the ground and kowtowed to a burly man in fear and trepidation.

"Run, keep running, why are you begging for mercy?" The strong man stepped on the old man's head, who was lying on the ground, and said angrily.

"I dare not... I dare not, brave man, please spare my life... spare my life... I was rude before, I apologize to you..."

The old man pressed his face to the ground, trembling and begging for mercy. A dozen servants beside him were all restrained by the thieves. There were two women, one old and one young, hugging each other and trembling in the car.

The sturdy man looked at the carriage and smiled obscenely, "If the young lady in the carriage can serve me well, I might spare your life if I'm happy."

As he said this, he kicked the old man to a minion and walked towards the carriage.

"My dear, my daughter is only eleven, still a child. Please let her go..."

The old man rushed forward to pull the strong man away, but was held tightly by a petty thief.

The little thief laughed heartily, "Eleventh is better, just like a flower bud about to bloom..."

"Mr. Brave, Mr. Brave, please spare her, please let her go..."

"Don't touch my daughter, don't—"

The woman in the carriage was thrown out by the strong man and dragged away by a thug.

"Let go! Let me go, Daddy, save me..." The girl cried in horror.

At this moment, a sharp sound of an arrow whistled from the forest. The old man's desperate plea, the girl's miserable cry, and the thief's wanton and lewd laughter all came to an abrupt end with the sound of the arrow.

In the carriage, the strong man covered his rumbling throat, turned around in disbelief, and then fell off the carriage.

The old man looked up and saw two masked men riding out of the woods. The leading man held a long spear in his hand and was as agile as a dragon. He chopped and stabbed, raising clusters of red blood among the thieves, which was dazzling to the eyes. In an instant, more than ten thieves died at his hands.

"Who is coming?" a thief asked.

However, Lu Bu ignored them and just kept killing people. When the bandits saw that there were only two of them, they wanted to surround and kill them. But after seeing that more than twenty of their companions died at the hands of Lu Bu, they were scared and fled in all directions.

Lu Bu did not pursue him, but put away his halberd and walked up to the old man.

The old man recovered from his shock and burst into tears of joy. He bowed and saluted Lu Bu repeatedly, "Thank you very much, brave man. Thank you very much for saving my life. I am so grateful! I am so grateful!"

Lu Bu looked down at him and said calmly, "There's no need to express gratitude. Just give me something as a reward."

The old man's expression froze, and he said hurriedly, "This is as it should be, as it should be."

As he said that, he asked someone to get the money.

Lu Bu said, "I don't want money, I want food and fine salt."

Wei Xu counted on his fingers and added, "We also need pottery pots and pans for cooking, bowls and chopsticks, quilts and tents for two beds, towels and wooden basins for washing, but we don't need urinals and toilets, and..."

"Okay!" Lu Bu interrupted him, speechless. If he wanted to go down again, he might as well just build a house.

Next to them, the old man's face was full of colors. These two warriors were almost no different from bandits except that they didn't want women and money.

However, at least my family members' lives were saved, so giving them something as a thank you is reasonable.

The two returned to the woods carrying large and small bags. Wei Xu said happily, "Brother-in-law, let's do this business in the future. We can be chivalrous and make money at the same time. If a young lady takes a fancy to us, maybe we can even earn a living as a bed warmer."

Thinking of his late wife who was pregnant, Lü Bu said gloomily, "There's no need for a warm bed, as long as I have enough food and clothing!"

From then on, the two desperate criminals finally found a relatively reliable livelihood.

…………

In Yangdi, Xu Fu was also leading a group of heroes to do justice.

The three thugs were blocked in an alley by seven heroes and were so scared that they didn't dare to fart.

"Brother Afu, who are these big brothers?"

Zhang Mo looked at the people in front of her. They were all wearing ordinary short brown clothes, and most of them had patches on their bodies, but they all held weapons in their hands, such as knives, spears, sticks, axes, and one of them even had a bow on his back.

This is clearly the ancient version of Young and Dangerous. She knows a thing or two about this organization. People with similar interests can be brothers, but they can also draw swords against each other if they disagree.

Xu Fu pointed at everyone and introduced them one by one. The biggest and dark-faced man was called Ma Du, the leader of this group of heroes. The young and handsome one was called Du Wandao, the one with yellow skin was called Sun Huangpi, and the short one was called Xiao Geda. The other two were brothers, named Niu Da and Niu Er.

With the support of these gangster bosses, Zhang Mo felt more confident. No one in Yangdi would dare to bully her in the future.

Xu Fu kicked the burly man to the ground. He and Sun Huangpi held down his arms on either side and said to Zhang Mo, "Come here. Whatever he did to you in the past, you will pay him back double today. Don't be afraid."

Zhang Mo limped forward, stepped on the man's hand, and rubbed it hard, using all her strength. However, there was no blood on his hand, and he didn't even frown.

Zhang Mo was so angry that she squatted down and slapped him again. Her hands were sore, but there was not even a mark on his rough and thick face.

She shook her sore arms and looked at Xu Fu with a helpless look on her face. She was so weak that she couldn't even hit someone when she was asked to.

Xu Fu smiled dotingly, pulled her away, and stomped directly on the man's hand. After a few cracking sounds, the thug who was secretly rejoicing started howling like a pig being slaughtered.

"Master, master, please spare my life. I will never dare to do it again, never again..."

The eldest brother, Damadu, came over and said coldly, "Beg for mercy? When she begged for mercy, were you soft-hearted? Bullying a little girl is nothing. I will eliminate this evil for the people today."

As he said this, he swung the axe down cleanly and neatly, smashing the burly thug's head open and spilling his brains all over the floor.

"This, this, this..."

Zhang Mo was stunned by his sudden action and asked in disbelief, "How... did he kill her?"

She just wanted to teach these people a lesson!

Xu Fu quickly covered her eyes and soothed her, "Don't look, don't be afraid, it's okay! If you don't silence him, he will definitely not let it go later. Either don't do it, or if you do it, don't leave any hidden dangers."

Zhang Mo pried his hands apart. She was not afraid of killing someone, but was afraid that if someone found out, she would have to pay with her life.

Seeing the dead body, Jianzui and Mazi knew that begging for mercy was useless, so they struggled desperately. Niu Er was not aware of it and was freed by Mazi.

"Du Wandao, solve this problem quickly!" Ma Du ordered.

Du Wandao chased after him quickly, drew the scimitar from his waist and swung it, hitting Mazi in the back. Mazi screamed and fell to the ground.

Du Wandao stepped forward, pulled out his scimitar and slashed it across his neck. Ma Zi rolled around on the ground for a few times like a bleeding duck and then became motionless.

They've already been killed, so there's no point in worrying or being afraid. Zhang Mo looked at the bodies and asked, "What should we do with them?"

Ma Du wiped the blood off the axe with the burly man's clothes and said, "Don't worry about it. Just leave it here. Someone will come to clean it up tomorrow. The county magistrate is a lazy guy. He won't bother to investigate without solid evidence. Don't worry."

He said, looking at Zhang Mo in surprise, "Are you not afraid, young lady?"

These were bloody corpses. He remembered that his hands and feet were shaking after he killed someone for the first time. But this young lady was very calm throughout the whole process except for being surprised at the beginning.

Zhang Mo said, "Why should we be afraid of the dead? The living are the ones to be feared!"

When she first came here, she almost died at the hands of living people twice.

Ma Du pondered for a moment and nodded, "Young lady, what you said makes sense!"

After killing the man, everyone dispersed and went home as if nothing had happened.

……

The next morning, Yangdi County Government Office.

The three bodies were carried into the lobby by yamen runners.

A woman knelt down and cried out, "I beg you, my Lord, to help me. My husband has always been a law-abiding man, but last night he was murdered by some thugs for no reason. I beg you to redress his injustice..."

"Please ask the Great Order to make the decision!"

The family members of the other few people also began to kowtow.

Follow the rules? The county magistrate twitched his lips and said in an official tone, "I will investigate this matter strictly. You can just go back and wait."

The dead were just a few thugs, and no one saw the murderer at the scene. How could he investigate? If he had this free time, he might as well spend more time at home with his new beauty.

Seeing that the county magistrate was evading responsibility, a yamen runner stepped forward and said, "Sir, I think I know who the murderer is."

The county magistrate raised his mustache and asked lazily, "Who is it?"

The yamen runner said, "Recently, a young storyteller has come to Ruyi Tower. His stories are novel and he's making a lot of money every day. Three days ago, he approached a few of our subordinates and told us he was being blackmailed by three deceased men. He asked for our help in arresting them. However, when we went to the alleys to arrest them as he said, we didn't see any of the thugs. We've been so busy these past two days that we've forgotten about arresting them. Perhaps he's unwilling to be blackmailed and has hired someone himself."

"I have also heard of that young gentleman, but how could a helpless child hire a murderer in two days? It's unlikely." Although the county magistrate was lazy, he was not stupid.

The yamen runner continued, "Your Excellency, you may not know that the young master rented a house at the Xu family in the west of the city. Xu Fu, the young man from the Xu family, is quite a knight-errant and has also practiced some martial arts. I suspect that he killed these three people out of sympathy for the young master."

"That's not impossible..." the county magistrate said, twirling his beard.

Seeing that the county magistrate agreed with him, the yamen runner's face lit up with joy and he said hurriedly, "Sir, why don't you leave this matter to me? I will definitely get to the bottom of it for you."

The county magistrate looked at the family members who were still crying and waved his hand impatiently, "Well, go to the Xu family. If it is indeed Xu Fu who killed him, we will investigate and deal with him according to the law."
