After the system ran, I took off with my family

Lin Shuyue frowned, took out a jade bottle from her bosom, poured out a rejuvenation pill the size of a grain of rice and stuffed it into his mouth.

After she gave the Rejuvenation Pill to King Zhennan last time, she divided the remaining half of the pill into three portions, each of which was the size of rice grains, in case of emergency.

The rejuvenation pill took effect quickly. After a while, the wound on Su Mu's chest stopped bleeding. His complexion gradually improved and his breathing became longer.

Lin Shuyue clapped her hands and took Qinghe and Qingzhi out of the house. Sun Quan and his two sons were waiting outside the house.

"Dagui, Darong, carry the person inside to the bed. Oh, and ask Aunt Liu to make some meat porridge. Feed him some when he wakes up."

Sun Dagui and Sun Darong nodded quickly, "Yes, Miss."

After giving the order, she went into another room. As soon as she entered, she saw Luo Qingsheng lying on the ground with a look of despair, staring at the ceiling.

Hearing the footsteps, he turned his head with difficulty and saw the fairy-like Lin Shuyue. A hint of joy flashed in his eyes, "Wuwuwu..."

At Lin Shuyue's signal, Qingzhi stepped forward and pulled the rag out of his mouth.

"call..."

"Girl, please let me go. There must be some misunderstanding between me and your family. I'm not a bad person. Besides, I have an 80-year-old mother and hungry children. My family can't do without me."

Luo Qing pleaded with red eyes and tears, hoping that the girl in front of him would soften her heart and let him go.

"Oh, stop acting, it's disgusting."

Lin Shuyue interrupted his pleading, sat on the chair and looked down at him, "Tell me, who are you and why are you chasing Su Mu?"

As soon as these words came out, Luo Qing's voice stopped abruptly and he looked at Lin Shuyue in surprise.

He couldn't believe that his four brothers died at the hands of such a delicate little girl.

At the same time, this realization made his scalp tingle. He was so young yet he had such skills. Which god had he offended?

And Su Mu, isn't it said that the Su family is a wealthy business? How could such a powerful person come to help?

If he had known this would happen, he would not have taken the job. He had been chasing the person for two days without success and was not only exhausted, but now he might even lose his life.

Lin Shuyue watched his face turn pale and blue, and knocked on the table gently, saying in a faint voice: "Will you tell me or not? If you don't want to, I have a hundred ways to make you speak.

For example, try my favorite skinning method recently. Where should I start? From the face? Or the neck? Or... "

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you! Please forgive me, I'm just a small follower who follows your orders." Luo Qing was so scared that he was about to cry. This was not a fairy at all, it was clearly a female Rakshasa!

Lin Shuyue curled her lips and said calmly, "Tell me, who are you and why are you chasing Su Mu?"

"I...we are from the Black Bear Village on Yuduan Mountain."

Luo Qing glanced at Lin Shuyue cautiously and continued, "Five days ago, the Su family in Fengcheng was wiped out overnight, and only Su Mu, the third son of the Su family who was out visiting friends, escaped.

Three days ago, someone suddenly found our boss and paid us a large sum of money to hunt down Su Mu, so we..."

"Who is looking for your boss? Is it someone from the Du family?"

"I don't know about that. I'm just a small fry. The boss won't tell us who our employer is. We only know that our employer told us to see him alive or dead."

"However, Su Mu seems to have really regarded us as members of the Du family, and even called us the Du family's running dogs. He..."

Lin Shuyue suddenly slammed the table and interrupted him, "You are lying!"

When she saw the five of them chasing Su Mu in the mountains during the day, she found that these five people acted very decisively and ruthlessly, and did not look like the minions in the bandit camp at all.

"Hmph, since you won't accept my toast, then you'll have to drink the penalty wine. Qinghe, go to the kitchen and fetch a bucket of hot water. I'm going to skin him alive today!"

"Yes, miss." Qinghe turned and walked out.

Luo Qing's fingers trembled behind his back, and he said in a sad voice: "What I said is true, I didn't lie! Miss, please spare my life."

Lin Shuyue ignored his wailing. If she didn't have many mantra talismans left, she wouldn't have gone through so much trouble.

After a while, Qing He came in with a bucket of steaming hot water. "Miss, this is the water that Aunt Liu just boiled. Aunt Liu said that it can even boil a dead pig."

"Well, put it there."

"Qingsheng, drag him over here and put his face in the bucket to soak it first. This will make it easier to peel his skin.

Don't worry about him being scalded to death. I have excellent medicine. Just keep a breath."

Lin Shuyue looked calm and spoke in a very nonchalant tone, making people feel as if she was talking about something very ordinary.

Little did he know that these words made Luo Qing's heart tremble.

He looked at the tall and strong Qing Sheng walking towards him with an expressionless face, then looked at the steaming water and swallowed involuntarily.

"What...what are you doing? Don't come over here!"

He twisted his body hard to avoid Qingsheng's hand, but Qingsheng would not let him succeed. He simply pulled him by the collar and dragged him to the wooden barrel. Then he grabbed his neck from behind and made him face the barrel, waiting for his young lady's order.

The hot steam made Luo Qing unable to open his eyes, but the scorching temperature still made his heart rise to his throat and his whole body began to tremble.

Feeling the force on his neck, he couldn't hold back any longer and broke down and yelled, "I'll tell you, I'll tell you everything! I won't lie again, please forgive me!"

"Humph!"

Qingsheng glanced at him with contempt, then looked at his young lady. Seeing his young lady nod, he dragged Luo Qing, who was lying on the ground like a dead dog, in front of her.

"Tell me, who are you?"

Luo Qing closed his eyes resignedly, "I...we are subordinates of Lord Wu, the governor of Yunzhou. Following the orders of the governor, we disguised ourselves as bandits to hunt down Su Mu."

"The Su family is just a wealthy business family. Why did Governor Wu go to so much trouble to send you to hunt down Su Mu?"

Lin Shuyue looked a little serious. She had a feeling that this matter might not be simple...

"We are just following orders, and we don't know the reason, but..."

Luo Qing was silent for a moment before he said, "However, we have discussed privately that the annihilation of the Su family might have been caused by our master.

Because, Scar accidentally saw the Fengcheng County Magistrate Ma secretly come to see our Governor, and he also heard Ma mention Sujiazhuang and the word iron mine. "

"iron ore?"

Lin Shuyue immediately sat up straight.

During the Zhou Dynasty, all gold mines, silver mines, and iron mines belonged to the imperial court and were strictly controlled by the court.

Once iron ore is discovered, whether it is on a private mountain or an unowned mountain, it must be reported to the local government, which will then report it to the imperial court, and the imperial court will send people to mine the iron ore.

So, what is the connection between the Su family and the iron mine? Why did Governor Wu kill people to silence them? What did he want to hide?
