Rebirth: My Brother Can Only Be Mine
Chapter 180 The City Lord’s Wife
Leave professional things to professionals.
Lin Qing drew a soundproof barrier and set up a soundproof formation, and used the sound transmission note to contact Bai Yinjin.
Bai Yinjin was very interested in this formation and expressed his desire to come over immediately.
The Fengling tribe has a formation that can directly reach the outside of Tugui City. It is expected that Bai Yinjin will be able to arrive at the City Lord's Mansion during the day tomorrow.
Then Lin Qing contacted Feng Musi again and explained the situation here to him. Feng Musi said that he would arrange for several elders of the Fengling tribe and Bai Yinjin to come together tomorrow.
The elders of the Wind Spirit Clan came to seal it, and they were no longer afraid of this demon spider.
The only thing now is that they need to find out who released the magic spiders in the City Lord's Mansion tomorrow.
Otherwise, when the people from the Wind Spirit Clan come to seal it, it will inevitably alert the enemy and make their disguise even more profound.
And... maybe they are exposed now while digging...
翌日清晨,天光微亮.
The young man pushed open the door while yawning, pinched the iron plate tied to his arm, and after making sure it was secure, he began to wander around the mansion in an arrogant manner.
He was not just wandering around aimlessly. His mission today was to check for any problematic people in the City Lord's Mansion.
Early in the morning is the time when the servants of the City Lord's Mansion get up and prepare to start working.
Except for those on night duty, all the servants in the City Lord's Mansion will return to their rooms to rest at night. There is a special courtyard for them.
The boy was standing at the door, yawning, holding a tray with a pile of copper coins on it.
Seeing that the steward had stood up, he asked him to gather all the servants and each of them could grab a handful of copper coins from him.
They line up and come forward one by one to grab money. How much they grab depends on their ability.
Soon all the servants in the servants' room came over to grab it. When some people got close, the iron plate would become slightly hot, but when some people got close, there was no reaction.
Those who feel slightly hot are the ones with problems, and the boy will gently tap the ring on his other hand.
The ring will emit an invisible halo, and the person with the problem who is close to it will naturally be surrounded by a halo.
This is a magic weapon given by a monk. The monk not only loves blacksmithing, but also loves refining weapons.
Everyone was very enthusiastic about catching money, and within a quarter of an hour everyone had come to catch it.
The young man then ordered the steward to bring back the person who was on duty last night and asked them to line up and grab a handful of money from him before entering the servants' quarters.
After all, the people on duty last night were scattered everywhere, so it took half an hour to catch them all.
By this time, the sky was already bright, and the boy returned to his room to catch up on some sleep.
Afterwards, Lin Qing went to where the guards were gathered under the pretext of sparring and beat up all of them, and also found out quite a few problematic people.
Then the three of them gathered in the yard and counted the number of people to be checked while eating breakfast.
"Everyone who entered and left the servants' room has been checked," the young man said.
"All the guards have been checked." Lin Qing said.
"Then we still need the city lord, his wife, and his twenty-eight concubines," said the monk.
The young man curled his lips, "How do you know so much? You even know how many concubines the city lord has."
The monk smiled and said, "I went to have my fortune told by the housekeeper this morning, and asked him some questions while I was there."
The boy looked unconvinced, "You can also tell fortunes?"
The monk smiled faintly: "I understand a little bit."
The young man curled his lips: "Tsk~"
Lin Qing said: "We can't contact the city lord's concubines. Why don't we investigate the city lord first, and then let the city lord summon his concubines to gather?"
The young man shook his head. "The city lord is stubborn and self-willed. Even if you tell him that there is something wrong with his concubine, he probably won't believe it. Instead, he will drive you out."
Lin Qing continued: "Then let's investigate the city lord's wife first. If she is okay, let her investigate the concubine?"
The young man lowered his eyes and didn't speak for a long time. Finally, he seemed to have made up his mind and let out a long sigh.
"Then let's go find Madam first." The young man then frowned and added, "Let me make this clear first. I think Madam is fine, but I'm afraid that if there's something wrong with those concubines, it would be bad if they hurt Madam."
Lin Qing nodded, "When the time comes, we will definitely provide Madam with safety protection before letting her try it out."
The boy then smiled and said, "Of course, I will check with her when the time comes."
The three of them soon arrived at the courtyard of the city lord's wife. Two bruised-faced guards were standing guard at the gate. When they saw Lin Qing coming, their eyes flashed.
Lin Qing smiled at the two of them, and the guards quickly lowered their heads and dared not look at him.
When Lin Qing proposed the sparring in a friendly tone in the morning, many people were not convinced and laughed at him, so Lin Qing beat all of them down. Today, the guards were all standing guard with injuries.
After reporting in, the city lord's wife was having breakfast and the maid was serving the food behind her.
Seeing them coming, the city lord's wife smiled and said, "Come over and have breakfast together."
The young man said, "We have already had breakfast."
The city lord's wife waved gently: "Then come over and eat with me."
The boy walked forward and sat down on the stool, but as soon as he sat down, the iron plate tied to the inside of his arm emitted bursts of heat.
In an instant, cold sweat broke out on my forehead.
At the same time, the burning sensation on the inside of the arm became more and more severe, but in the blink of an eye, the cold sweat disappeared and hot sweat began to come out.
His hand trembled slightly in pain, and he quickly held it down firmly with his other hand.
The city lord's wife was surprised and asked, "Why is it so hot? Did you practice martial arts this morning? You kid, if you are not in good health, don't overtrain."
The city lord's wife chattered with concern and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.
The boy suppressed his body's instinctive reaction, not daring to look up at her. He only dared to stare at the porridge and side dishes on the table and said, "No, maybe I was exposed to the sun for too long on the way."
Immediately realizing that there was no sun today, the boy changed his words and said, "No, it's just that I was too hot running all the way here."
The city lord's wife's handkerchief soon became soaked. She took out another handkerchief and wiped it, saying with concern: "Don't be anxious, take your time."
The boy hummed and let her wipe the seemingly endless sweat.
Lin Qing sat on the other side of the table, and the monk sat next to the young man. The two of them looked at the young man who was sweating profusely, and they both knew that there must be a problem.
The monk reached out and patted the boy on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Young City Lord, please take good care of yourself and don't be so stubborn."
The young boy felt a breeze blowing from his shoulders, and the burning sensation in his arms finally subsided a little. The feeling that was about to burn his arms faded away, and he finally stopped trembling, and the sweat on his body also stopped.
Only then did he have the strength to look up at the city lord's wife.
The city lord's wife was still gentle and kind, taking care of him with a concerned look on her face.
But, how could such a good aunt be the one who killed so many people just to open the demon teleportation array?
Was all the concern in the past false?
The boy's nose felt sore and his eyes suddenly turned red.
The city lord's wife was surprised, "Shengsheng, what's wrong? Why are you so aggrieved?"
The boy shook his head, "It reminded me of some bad things in the past."
The lady of the city lord said gently: "Be good, Shengsheng. Your aunt is here. Don't be afraid. Your aunt will protect you."
After saying that, she touched his head like she did when they were little, wanting to hold him in her arms and comfort him.
Before the boy burst into tears, he turned his head and buried it in the chest of the monk beside him, "Wow."
The city lord's wife was clueless and just looked at him gently, with a look of tenderness and reluctance in her eyes.
The boy cried for a while, then calmed down, wiped his tears and sat up straight.
The lady of the city lord gently served him a bowl of porridge and said, "Shengsheng, drink a bowl with your aunt."
The boy looked at her and moved his mouth but didn't say anything. She seemed to know what he was thinking and smiled gently, "It's okay, drink it."
The boy looked down at the bowl of white porridge, which had only some small beans as a side dish.
I looked at the other side dishes on the table, all of them were green vegetables.
My aunt has been vegetarian and chanting Buddhist scriptures for many years. She never seems to get angry and has no desires. Could this also be fake?
