Chapter 376
"Benefactor, our home is at the foot of Shimen Mountain. It's not yet dawn, so you should go home and take a rest. I can't repay you for saving my life, so I might as well treat my benefactor well."
Mu Zhijian, the father of the twin sisters, regarded Lin Hao as his savior and insisted on inviting Lin Hao to his home.
"Brother, just go to our house and I can cook for you."
"Your clothes are dirty, change them and let me wash them for you..."
Mu Qiong and Mu Yao also looked at Lin Hao expectantly, their soft voices making people feel numb.
Lin Hao also felt that it was hard to refuse such hospitality, and he really needed a place to rest now that he hadn't slept a wink all night, so he agreed.
The next morning.
Lin Hao was still sleeping, so Mu Yao quietly slipped into the room.
Of course, this could not be hidden from Lin Hao's ears, but at this time, Lin Hao was only wearing a pair of shorts. Although he was covered with a quilt, he still felt embarrassed.
After all, the other party was a girl, a young girl in her late teens, so Lin Hao could only continue to pretend to be asleep and pretend not to notice the other party.
Mu Yao tiptoed to the bedside, took away the clothes that Lin Hao had taken off and put on the stool before going to bed, and gently closed the door to Lin Hao.
She put Lin Hao's clothes into a plastic basin, then carried it to the pool in the yard, filled the basin with water, and started cleaning it very carefully.
This is a simple farmhouse with four or five rooms. Flowers and plants are planted around the yard.
There are some chickens and ducks raised in a small shed at the door, squawking and quacking, giving this remote rural tile-roofed house a noisy yet warm feeling.
After Mu Yao washed Lin Hao's clothes, she took them to the stove in the house and baked them carefully, hoping to dry the clothes before Lin Hao woke up and then put them back.
By this time, Mu Qiong had returned from the market and was preparing breakfast in the kitchen.
Outside the yard, on a country road paved with stones more than two meters wide, a black car was driving slowly.
The car stopped at the entrance of the small courtyard, and five men in black suits got out of the car.
They glanced at the small farmyard in front of them, pushed open the wooden courtyard door with some disgust, and asked in a cold voice: "Is Master Mu here?"
"Here you are."
Mu Zhijian came out of the room, holding a delicate small wooden box in his hand. Inside the box was the Seven-leaf Nether that arrived yesterday.
When he got home last night, he immediately called the young master of the Fu family, so the Fu family sent someone over early in the morning.
The young master of the Fu family had previously given a deposit of 200,000 yuan. As long as he handed over the Seven-leaf Netherworld in the small wooden box, he could get the balance of 800,000 yuan.
Mu Zhijian handed the wooden box to the man in a black suit with excitement on his face. The man opened the lid and took a look. After closing it, he took the box and turned around and left. It seemed that he had no intention of paying the balance.
Mu Zhijian shouted hurriedly: "Boss, will the remaining balance be transferred to the bank card?"
In fact, he really wanted to say that the other party didn't even ask for his bank account number, how could he pay the balance to him? But he was embarrassed to explain it too clearly.
The man in the suit turned back and glanced at Mu Zhijian coldly: "I've given you two hundred thousand, isn't it enough?"
Mu Zhijian smiled bitterly and said, "Didn't we agree that it was just a deposit? When we harvest the Seven-leaf Netherworld, we will pay another 800,000 yuan. We also said that we will pay with one hand and deliver the goods with the other."
The man in a suit snorted coldly: "Don't be greedy. If you farm in the countryside, you can't earn more than 200,000 yuan even if you farm for ten years. How dare you ask for 800,000 yuan?"
Do you know how much eight hundred thousand is? If you put it at home, wouldn’t you be afraid of being robbed?”
"I advise you to accept it as soon as you see fit, otherwise don't blame us for being rude to you!"
Another man in a suit rolled up his sleeves and looked like he would hit someone at any time.
But these Seven-leaf Netherworld were bought by Mu Zhijian at the cost of his life. In order to keep these herbs, he was kidnapped to the Qingyun Sect, and his two daughters were almost bullied.
When he was imprisoned in Qingyun Sect yesterday, he thought he might never come out. How could he let these people snatch Qiye Youming away now?
"You are not trustworthy. If you don't pay the balance, return the herbs to me!"
Mu Zhijian shouted loudly and rushed over to grab the wooden box back, but the man in the suit raised his hand and pushed him, causing him to stagger back and almost fall to the ground.
"You bandits!" Mu Zhijian shouted angrily, picking up the hoe leaning against the wall.
Then he held it high and pounced on it, pretending to hit the men in suits on the head. He looked menacing as if he was trying to fight with them.
This action also angered the men in suits.
They are all the bodyguards of the Fu family. They all know some fighting skills and boxing skills, which are more than enough to deal with rural herb collectors like Mu Zhijian.
One of the men raised his hand, grabbed the hoe, and kicked Mu Zhijian in the abdomen.
Mu Zhijian was immediately kicked and fell to the ground, but he was still unwilling to give in. He looked at the back of the man in the suit and yelled loudly.
Mu Qiong and Mu Yao heard their father's voice and ran out of the room at the same time. They were panicked when they saw their father lying on the ground.
After helping Mu Zhijian up, he realized that Qiye Youming had been snatched away. Not only did he not get the balance, but he was also beaten by the other party.
Doesn't this clearly indicate bullying?
The two sisters chased the men in black and blocked the car door to prevent them from getting in. They argued loudly with each other.
"You hit my dad, you must apologize to him."
"Unless the balance is paid, you are not allowed to take Qiye Youming away!"
When the five men in suits saw the young and beautiful twin sisters, their eyes suddenly lit up and the corners of their mouths raised malicious smiles.
Inside the room.
Lin Hao heard the noise outside and wanted to get up to check what happened, but found that the clothes he had placed beside the bed were missing.
I remembered that Mu Yao had entered the room just now, but she felt embarrassed at the time, so she pretended to be asleep. Now that I think about it, it may have been that the other party took her clothes away at that time.
Lin Hao gently opened the window a crack and saw two sisters, Mu Qiong and Mu Yao, confronting several men outside the yard.
Seeing the ill-intentioned looks of those men, Lin Hao guessed that the two sisters would definitely suffer.
Moreover, Mu Zhijian was beaten by the other party just now. If the two girls went to argue with each other, there would be absolutely no good results.
Lin Hao planned to go out to help them, but he was only wearing a pair of shorts. It would be embarrassing to walk out naked.
He opened the closet and wanted to find some clothes to put on for a while, but he found that the clothes hanging in the closet were all women's clothes, faintly exuding a faint fragrance.
There were also several neatly stacked pieces of underwear, which were particularly eye-catching and made Lin Haoden feel his cheeks getting hot.
He hurriedly closed the closet door and glanced at the furnishings and objects in the room, only to realize that this should be the boudoir of the two sisters, Mu Qiong and Mu Yao.
It was impossible for Lin Hao to go out wearing girl's clothes.
I could only sneak into Mu Zhijian's room while the Mu family's father and daughter were outside to see if I could find a suitable piece of clothing.
Lin Hao gently opened the door to the room and went to the next room. Before he entered, he heard loud snoring.
After opening the door, I saw Ximen Qingqing lying on the bed with his back stretched out, seemingly unaware of the sounds outside, sleeping like a dead pig.
The room where Ximen Qingqing slept was obviously Mu Zhijian's room.
Lin Hao randomly picked a set of coarse cloth clothes in the closet and found a pair of old rubber shoes to put on.
Although this outfit looks a bit old-fashioned, fortunately, Lin Hao has a good figure and a very good temperament, so it is not very ugly.
