It was snowing heavily outside, and a thick layer had accumulated on the ground over the past few days. Ling Ruo stood barefoot on the snow, her thin dress and long black hair flying in the wind and snow.
"Master!" Li and Wei were shocked, and they quickly ran over and put their thick cloaks on Ling Ruo, who was still giggling, lest she catch a cold.
Ling Ruo seemed not to feel the cold at all, looking at the catkins and flying snow that had blurred the eyes of all living beings. She lowered her head and patted the pillow in her arms and said softly: "My child, do you feel much cooler? Be good, my child, sleep well."
Wait, when you wake up, my mother will take you to find Amma!"
Mo Yu burst into tears behind her, and Li Wei couldn't help wiping away her tears. The three masters and servants just stood in the snow, letting the heavy snow cover their figures.
On the other side, Mao Da flattered Sanfu and said, "Isn't the third master's medicine a spiritual light? After five days, that Niu Hulu family has gone so crazy that he can't even tell the difference between spring, summer, autumn and winter."
Sanfu nodded with satisfaction, "Very good, you did a good job on this errand. I will send someone to deliver the money later. Remember, you are not allowed to mention this matter to anyone, and you are not allowed to mention that you have met me before!"
"
"I know, Third Master, don't worry, I promise, I will keep my mouth shut tightly and will not reveal a single word until my death!" Mao Daxin said confidently.
Until death? Oh, don't worry, I will send you to see the King of Hell tonight. Sanfu sneered in his heart, but with a gentle expression on his face: "Of course I can trust you, otherwise I wouldn't let you go on this mission, okay?
, it’s getting late and I should go back to answer my orders. You continue to guard the Niu Hulu clan and don’t neglect it; as long as you act faithfully, the master will not treat you badly.”
With the Mao brothers' repeated promises, Sanfu turned around and left. He couldn't wait to tell his master the good news. He believed that his master would be very happy. From now on, the Niu Hulu clan would no longer be able to threaten his master.
It was night, and several dark figures came to the Western Suburbs Courtyard silently under the cover of wind and snow. At that time, the concierge's light was on, and voices could be heard faintly inside. One of the dark figures quietly poked a hole in the window paper.
, and found that the two people they were looking for were drinking and talking inside, with a small stove burning nearby to keep warm.
The black shadow nodded to the remaining people. They were hired to kill people. Now that they knew the target was inside, there was no need to say anything. They each took out the shiny steel knives from behind and kicked the door in. They had already planned it before they came.
, after killing the two people, they set a fire and burned the place, destroying the corpses and extinguishing traces. Even if the government came, they would not be able to find out what happened. They would just think that they drank too much and kicked them down.
Stoves or candles started fires.
Several people kicked in the door and were about to slash at the two of them with knives. Suddenly, they felt that their feet were in the air. Before they could react, they felt that they were flying into the air. Then they fell heavily into a deep pit. The person who was following them hurriedly stopped.
He stopped his steps and did not fall. Unfortunately, before he had time to be happy, he felt someone push him behind him. The balance he barely maintained was broken in an instant, and he fell into the pit.
Seeing everyone falling into the pit, the Mao brothers, who had been pretending to be calm, let out a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat that had dripped into their eyes and said to Ling Ruo, who had appeared at the door at some unknown time: "Sure enough, Master.
As expected, that person couldn't wait to kill him as soon as he heard the news about his master's madness."
Ling Ruo nodded slightly, holding Li Wei's hand and walked slowly to the pit that was several feet deep. At this moment, except for her complexion, there was nothing unusual about her, and she was not crying and laughing like she was during the day.
Looking down, he saw that the killers who had fallen to the bottom of the pit unexpectedly had recovered and were trying their best to climb up. However, the walls of the pit were smooth and there was no place to grab their hands. This was what Ling Ruo was letting him do.
They specifically confessed when they dug the hole. In terms of head-to-head confrontation, there was no way they could defeat these killers who were fighting for their lives on the knife's edge. Even if the Mao Brotherhood had some fists and kicks, it would be useless. They could only take advantage of them through sideways.
She knew that if she went crazy, the Mao brothers would become useless pawns to the Nala family. With Nala's temperament, she would never leave the Mao brothers alive and would definitely send someone to kill them.
So she asked them in advance to dig two deep pits day and night where the door and window came in, and then pretended to be no different from the ordinary ground. Whenever someone wanted to come into the house, they would inevitably have to enter from these two places, and they would be caught off guard.
when.
To take a step back, even if they did not come in and set fire to the house outside, the Mao brothers could have taken refuge in a deep pit.
As for the madness during the day, it was just a play for Sanfu...
"Who are you? How did you know we were coming?" The killer trapped in the pit also saw them. A killer with a scar on his face who looked like the leader asked in a deep voice. He was in an extremely bad mood at the moment. He had been doing this for so many years.
As a killer, he never fails in his profession, but he didn't expect that he would stumble into such an inconspicuous job. It was really unexpected.
Mao Er came over and spat down below and said bitterly: "How dare you ask my master's name? Just stay down below!"
After saying that, he ignored the extremely gloomy expression on the killer leader's face, walked to Ling, knelt down on his knees, and kowtowed with an unprecedented sincerity: "Master is so kind and kind, and I will never forget it. From now on, as long as the master has errands,
, Even if it costs my life, I will never frown!"
If Ling Ruo hadn't planned in advance and guessed the development of the situation in advance, so that they could prepare in advance, the two of them would have become dead souls by the sword at this moment; if it was just him, forget it, but he still had his elder brother's life, and this kindness
Enough to make him repay with his life.
"Minions too!" Mao Dayi knelt down, he and Mao Er were thinking the same thing.
Ling Ruo knew that the two of them were sincerely surrendering at this moment, and were not as conceited as before. She nodded and signaled them to get up, "As long as you always remember the word loyalty, I will not treat you badly. As for the past..." She looked at
The Mao brothers, who were slightly frightened, said four words calmly, "Let bygones be bygones!"
The Mao brothers were overjoyed and kowtowed repeatedly to express their gratitude. At this moment, Li Wei found that the killer leader who was trapped in the pit was holding three steel knives in his hands and inserting them into the pit wall in a "pin" shape to climb and settle.
Let him climb out of the pit, and no one present will survive.
However, Li Wei was not worried. Instead, he grinned. This smile made the killer leader, who was trying to climb up, feel a sinking feeling in his heart and give him an ominous premonition.
Sure enough, he heard Li Wei shout loudly: "Mo Yu, are you okay?"
"Okay!" Mo Yu's voice came from far away and soon appeared at the door. Each of her hands was wrapped with a thick layer of cotton, and she came in with a big pot with difficulty. It seemed to be filled with water.
It keeps shaking.
After Li Wei picked up his robe and wrapped it around his hands a few times, he took the iron pot and glanced at Ling Ruo. Seeing her nodding slightly, he gritted his teeth and closed his eyes and poured the water in the pot onto the panicked killer in the pit.
