Su Qingyan felt very sad. She couldn't blame them for being so selfish. She could only say that life was hard for ordinary people. Zijin's life was also hard, but she was lucky to have met Mu Qingcheng. They should be grateful to Moyu and Mu Qingcheng.

Su Qingyan did not tell Xu Jia about Zijin. For them, not disturbing each other might be the best outcome!

She wanted to buy two beds and two cabinets. Fang agreed and told Su Qingyan that they had two old beds at home. If the girl didn't mind, she could use them. She would make new ones for them after Xu Yongfu recovered in a few days.

Su Qingyan thought the old bed was fine too. Once Mu Qingcheng built a new house, they would have new furniture, and the old one would be useless. She wouldn't feel bad about keeping it or giving it away. So she decided to buy two old beds first. As for the kitchen cabinets, she would have to wait until Xu Yongfu recovered from his injury.

The village chief immediately called the villagers to help Su Qingyan carry the two beds back to the yard.

Here, Moyu returned from the county town, and his household registration and land deeds were all completed. He also brought back a piece of news from the county government office.

The night before yesterday, bandits attacked Donghu Village and massacred everyone in one night, leaving no one alive. The county government sent people to investigate, but they were helpless.

Yun Qing looked stern and thought to himself, Shang Mingxian is so bad that he would massacre the whole village just to vent his anger. He really regards the lives of the people as worthless.

Mo Yu said, "Master, the people in Donghu Village are not good people either. They only commit crimes such as robbery, kidnapping, and fraud. They deserve to die."

Yun Qing thought to himself, even if Donghu Village was full of scoundrels, Shang Mingxian wouldn't be able to punish them. With such disregard for human life, what was the point of the laws of the Great Qi Kingdom? He massacred Donghu Village, but what if he had massacred Daxi Village?

Yun Qing immediately sent Mo Yu to Donghu Village again to collect evidence, which might be useful in dealing with merchants in the future.

Moyu didn't stop and went straight to Donghu Village.

After the night of the frightened horse in Donghu Village, Shang Mingxian was dragged out of the stinking ditch by guards. Their carriage was destroyed and they couldn't return to the county town for the time being, so they had to stay at the village chief's house.

Shang Mingxian changed six buckets of water before he washed himself clean, changed into clean clothes, and lay on the bed for the doctor to check. There was just a big blood clot on the back of his head, and he needed to take blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing medicine for two days.

At this time, a guard came to report that his three carriages were destroyed and three were lost, of which four were found. One of the lost carriages was loaded with valuables.

Shang Mingxian was furious. The carriages were lost, so be it. But he had borrowed the three carriages from the Sixth Prince. They were his favorites, and he had borrowed them for a pair of glass bottles. He had enjoyed such a glorious journey riding in them. Now that they were destroyed, how could he explain this to the Sixth Prince? He would have to spend a fortune to build new ones. Just as he was gritting his teeth, he suddenly remembered.

"Where are the horses? Those three horses are not injured, right?" They are purebred Western horses.

The guard replied hesitantly, "The situation was urgent at the time. Fearing that the young master was in danger, we killed the horse..."

"Puff!" A mouthful of blood spurted out, spraying the guard's face. Shang Mingxian felt a buzzing in his head and a dizziness.

"Kill! Kill..." He shouted his last words before he fainted: "I will bury their entire village with them..."

Lai Pi Si and a few others also went to see the frightened carriage. He always felt that this was a bit weird! Then he saw the nobleman from the capital being dragged out of the stinking ditch, and he felt that Donghu Village was doomed.

The four of them hurried back to pack up their things during the chaos, and now they could only go up the mountain to seek help. When he returned to the courtyard, he found that their sheep had run away, one of his brothers had died, and only Sun Zhenzhen, who was unconscious, was left in the house.

This further verified Lai Pi Si's guess that those horses were not accidents, but someone was secretly playing tricks.

Lai Pi Si and others who had never seen such a thing were panicked. Was this person coming for them or for the one in the capital?

Just think about the man's skills, killing people without being seen, stealing sheep silently, they didn't even see a shadow, and several people were frightened and broke out in cold sweats.

"We can't stay here anymore, let's go."

Lai Pi Si was about to leave, but turned around and asked someone to carry Sun Zhenzhen away. This woman might have seen that mysterious man.

A few people took a small path out of the village. As soon as they left the village, they saw another group of people coming from the village. They surrounded Donghu Village and all the villagers were not allowed to leave the village.

Lai Pi Si was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. He didn't dare to stop and went straight to Lao Chen Village on Dongling Mountain.

Laochen Village. Ever since Yan Jinchang left, Kang Shao and his men had moved into Laochen Village. Although there was a magnificent palace in the mine cave, it never saw sunlight all year round, and it would become stuffy if they lived there for a long time.

Along with Kang Shao, another person who was sent to guard the mine was Xu Laoer.

Xu Laoer and his men were specifically assigned to guard Yun Qing in the mines. Their daily mission was to torture him. Unexpectedly, these men only knew how to drink and play with women, and Yun Qing seized the opportunity to escape. Furious, Kang Shao punished Xu Laoer and his men by forcing them to go to the mountains to look for Yun Qing, and not to return if they couldn't find him.

He also knew that with just the five of them, they would never be able to find the answer even if they died of old age. However, if he didn't give these people something to do, they would only cause trouble for him.

Look, Xu Laoer and his companions have been gone for seven or eight days. If he hadn't sent people to the town to find them today, they would have been drunk to death in the brothel.

Kang Shao was scolding Xu Laoer and others when his subordinates came to report that Lai Pi Si wanted to see him.

Kang Shao was upset. He had received news this morning that Shang Mingxian had been in danger in Donghu Village the previous night. He complained inwardly, "What are these noble young men from the capital doing here for no reason? They're really causing trouble."

He waved his hand and told Xu Laoer and others to go down and wait. It was a good opportunity for him to ask Lai Pi Si what happened last night.

When Xu Lao Er and his companions came out of the meeting room, they saw Lai Pi Si and his companions. Usually, the two groups had similar interests and would always drink together when they had nothing to do.

Today, they met and greeted each other as usual. Xu Laoer approached and saw the woman they were carrying. The woman had a good figure, big breasts, and was also pretty. She was obviously a good-looking woman.

Xu Lao Er immediately perked up and stopped Lai Pi Si, saying, "Ah! Isn't this Lao Si? Are you here to give my eldest brother another woman? My eldest brother is a refined man. He doesn't like these country women. It's useless for you to give them to him. In the end, they will still end up in the dark room on the mountain. I think this one is good today, so I'll give it to us brothers to try first."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to grab Sun Zhenzhen's chest. The soft feeling in his hand made him feel like a wild horse with gusto.

"Wow! It's so delicious! Come on, give the person to me!"

Lai Pi Si was anxious to find Kang Shao, but when he saw Xu Lao Er like this, he didn't stop him. He just said, "Second brother likes this. We brothers will send you two more tomorrow. But this woman must be kept alive. I still have something to ask her, so we can't do it now."

Xu Lao Er and his men were like flies to shit, refusing to let go. Lai Pi Si came up with a plan. He remembered what Sun Zhenzhen had said about the two peerless siblings at the Zhou Family Inn in Daxing Town.

Isn't this the perfect opportunity? As long as he tricks Xu Laoer and his men into arresting someone, then they can divide the loot. He wants the man to be given to the nobleman and the woman to be left with Xu Laoer.

It’s really the best of both worlds!

Lai Pi Si immediately became excited and told Xu Lao Er about a pair of siblings who had come to Daxing Town. They were really good-looking, like angels, with skin as white as a big white steamed bun fresh from the pot...

Sun Lao Er was already drooling, and turned around to call his brothers to go to Daxing Town. He personally led people to Zhou's Inn.

Lai Pi Si quickly warned him, "Second brother, second brother, you must leave that man to me!"

"Don't worry, I, your second brother, am not a big shot."

Lai Pi Si gave a wicked smile and turned to look for Kang Shao.
