The black-bellied peasant girl is reborn, and her weird relatives are mad

"Everyone, be careful."

Through the light of the torch, I saw a young man tied up and lying on his back in the middle of the dark room.

Judging from his attire, he should be a servant who entered the garden during the day.

His eyes were closed and there was blood at the corners of his mouth. It seemed that he was harmed by Lin Xiao. Another life was lost!

What did the servant do to provoke this unforgivable villain? He actually murdered a child who served him.

The front and side walls of the darkroom were all wooden shelves filled with books, pots and pans. In front of the bookshelves was a large black lacquered carved wooden table. On the table were neatly placed pens, inkstones, paper and inkstones. The tabletop was spotless, and it seemed that someone often read and wrote at this table.

Against the wall on the left were piled wooden boxes of various sizes, sealed and covered in dust.

Tang Zhongbai was holding a long sword and had just walked to the door when he suddenly felt a figure rushing towards him and hitting him in the face.

He bent sideways to avoid the sneak attack. His companions had already rushed in and lit all the lights in the darkroom. The darkroom was now brightly lit.

Tang Zhongbai and Lin Xiao were fighting each other, and his companion couldn't bring himself to fight with his sword.

Lin Xiao fought and retreated, and was about to retreat to the door, wanting to escape.

Tang Zhongbai shouted, "Stand guard at the door and don't let him escape."

"Tang Juecao, be careful with his hidden weapons." A man in green clothes reminded him. He saw a small iron box on Lin Xiao's wrist. Anyone who practiced martial arts could tell what it was used for at a glance.

Hidden weapons can only succeed if they are launched suddenly and when the opponent is least prepared.

Lin Xiao secretly hated being discovered, but he still gritted his teeth and pressed the trigger, launching the hidden weapon. A thin needle flew straight into Tang Zhongbai's brow.

Tang Zhongbai was prepared and dodged it easily, while Lin Xiao had run out of tricks and was at a disadvantage.

He knew he couldn't escape today, so he stepped back, put down the knife in his hand, and raised his hands.

"Alright, I give up." Lin Xiao turned his eyes and asked, "What do you want from me?"

Tang Zhongbai raised his eyebrows. This guy was really good at pretending. After fighting for such a long time, he didn't even know why?

"You don't know?" Tang Zhongbai asked deliberately.

Lin Xiao nodded repeatedly, indicating that he didn't understand.

Tang Zhongbai sneered at his pretense and said, "Really? I don't understand why you fought with me for so long. Don't tell me, do you think we are killers and you are just fighting back?"

Lin Xiao tilted his chin up and chuckled, "Isn't it?"

Tang Zhongbai turned his gaze to the boy lying on the ground, "What happened to him?"

"Him? He tried to steal something, but I beat him up and brought him here. He's just a thief. I'll beat him to death, and he'll have to take it."

Tang Zhongbai gave Tang Si a wink, and Tang Si understood and went forward to check.

He placed two fingers on the boy's neck and detected a faint breath.

"He's still alive, but his breath is too weak. He must have been poisoned. I'm afraid..."

Tang Zhongbai said: "Take him out and find a doctor to do his best to treat him."

The young man opened his eyes weakly, grabbed the corner of Tang Si's clothes, and said weakly, "No need."

He waved his hand gently, asking Tang Si to lean over and whisper in his ear, as he had something to say.

His voice was so soft that only Tang Si could hear it. After hearing it, Tang Si's face became solemn and he nodded vigorously.

Tang Si ordered him softly, "Little brother, you can't die. The man who hurt you has not yet been brought to justice. You have to testify against him in court. Without your testimony, he might have escaped. For the sake of your family, for the person you call your benefactor, you have to live, you have to live well, and see his end with your own eyes."

The young man said softly, "I'll do my best." Then he closed his eyes again.

The boy was taken away to find Xu Da for emergency treatment.

Tang Zhongbai stared at Lin Xiao, his eyes dark and unclear, "Lin Xiao, to be honest, you killed those evil people in the Lin family, and I respect you as a man. But you should never, ever get involved with someone you shouldn't be with."

Lin Xiao was puzzled and smiled bitterly, "I don't know who you are talking about? It must be God's will."

Tang Zhongbai ordered Lin Xiao to be tied up and taken to the yamen, waiting for the trial to begin in half a day.

Tang Zhongbai and Tang Si stayed in the dark room, and Tang Si told him what the young man said.

"Sir, he said he is from Weidong."

"I see. The mark on the bottom of the jar must have been left by him. It's possible that Lin Xiao discovered that he had tampered with the jar, so he killed him." Tang Zhongbai sighed deeply, "This is a good kid who values ​​friendship and loyalty. Let Xu Da do his best to treat him and save his life. Lin Xiao is too cunning. He can't admit that he killed the Lin family. Even if Zhang Chuncao and his wife testify against him, as long as he refuses to admit it, we can't find any evidence and can't convict him."

Tang Zhongbai reminded him again, "Remember to call Madam Jiang. There is no one better than her in the Great Wu Dynasty who can detoxify."

Tang Si received his order and left in a hurry.

Tang Zhongbai stayed in the dark room for a long time and only came out when the rooster crowed in the morning.

Everyone outside the door had left, and only Hu Daxin was waiting for him at the kitchen door.

Hu Daxin said anxiously: "Tang Juecao, you finally came out."

"What's going on outside?"

Hu Daxin's eyebrows drooped, and his shoulders trembled. "Brother Xu Gang, he, he had half of his leg amputated."

"What? Brother Xu can't cure his poison?"

Hu Daxin shook his head, his eyes reddened. "Master Xu said he had never seen such a poison before. He, he was powerless. In the end, in order to save his life, he had no choice but to..."

Hu Daxin, a tough guy, couldn't help but choke up.

"Where is he? I'll go check." He suddenly remembered the boy and asked, "Where is the child? Is he still alive?"

Xu Gang was not seriously poisoned, but he lost a leg. The dying boy was probably dead.

Hu Daxin shook his head again, "I don't know. Tang Si took him away, and I haven't seen them yet."

"Let's go."

The two men returned the same way they came, they tiptoed the ground, and one of them jumped over the high wall.

In the restaurant, no one rested last night except the youngest one, Jiang Muyang.

It was freezing cold outside, and everyone ignored the cold and gathered outside the west wing of the tavern, waiting for good news to come out.

First, Xu Da brought back a man with a pale face and cold sweat, and arranged him in the east wing.

Soon after, a heart-wrenching scream was heard from inside, followed by panic.

Even through the door, the Jiang family could smell the pungent smell of blood.

They couldn't sit still and ran over to help, but the scene before them made Lu Chaoyun fall to the ground.

She had never seen such a bloody scene before. After coming to her senses, she knelt in the yard and prayed to the sky.

Jiang Mutao knelt in the yard with her mother, praying that the people in the room would be safe and that God would open his eyes and clear Jiang Muxia's name.

It was freezing cold, and if they kept kneeling like this, they would fall to the ground in no time.

Jiang Yuzhou and Li Jiyi tried to persuade them in vain, so they had to carry them back into the house.

The east wing was finally cleaned up.

At 5 pm, Tang Si hurriedly brought back a weak boy and told them that the boy would be the key witness to identify the real murderer. The Jiang family stayed here, and Lu Chaoyun kept praying to the sky, wishing the child safe and sound.

In the east and west wing of the tavern, a man had just been pulled back from the brink of death after having one of his legs removed.

One person is still in a coma and it is unknown whether his life can be saved.

The operation resulted in heavy losses.
