snowstorm

Lu Jue's face didn't change when he heard the words, he didn't answer, and he didn't take back the sword that was on the opponent's shoulder.

The man felt the strength on his shoulders, knew that he was not an opponent, and said: "I advise you to let me go, if you don't let me go, this place will become a dead city in the future."

These words were weird and absurd, Lu Jue frowned subconsciously, but for some reason, he always felt that this person had something to do with Xie Qiao and these words. With this thought in mind, he didn't intend to let this person go.

So he opened his mouth: "I can let you go, but not now." At least, we must understand the ins and outs of what this person said.

Hearing this, the man thought that Lu Jue would never let him go, so he turned around and greeted Lu Jue suddenly with his fists clenched. Lu Jue was afraid of hurting the man's life, so he withdrew his sword in time and dodged the punch , He caught the man's arm with his upper hand, and turned the man to the ground with clever strength.

The man fell on the ground panting heavily, he struggled desperately to get up, Lu Jue's arm was stuck around the man's neck, he stared at the man's eyes, and said coldly: "I said, I can let you go , but not now. If you really want to leave, you'd better be obedient."

The man's struggle paused, and he saw Lu Jue's face and eyes clearly under the moonlight. He said slowly, "You are not that dog official." It is impossible for the dog officer to have such a person by his side.

Lu Jue felt that the other party had completely given up struggling, so he let go of his hand.The man stood up, and sure enough he didn't run away anymore.Lu Jue said quickly: "This place is really hidden, you wait for me here first, I still have some things to do here. I will come back to you when I finish my work."

The man's dull eyes showed a slight surprise: "Aren't you afraid that I will run away again?"

Lu Jue raised his eyebrows and looked at him: "If I catch you the first time, I can catch you the second time. You can try it."

After speaking, Lu Jue turned around and strode towards the yard where the accident happened.Now that the mansion is in chaos, he can just look for news about Xie Qiao openly.Once Li Zhonglian died, it couldn't be easier to pry Li Huaizhi's mouth open.

Lu Jue predicted it right, once Li Zhonglian died, the mansion was in chaos, the mansion door was wide open, maids and family members came in and out, not knowing what they were doing.Lu Jue didn't care when he saw it, and he went back to the yard where the accident happened.

There was no one left in this yard, and Li Zhonglian's body was still the same, but the blood all over the ground had started to turn black due to time.Li Huaizhi was still paralyzed on the ground, trembling and at a loss: once his father died, the pillars of the family had already collapsed, and he didn't know what to do now.There is no way to report to the official, after all, his father is that official.

As soon as he saw Lu Jue coming in, he half rolled and half climbed to Lu Jue's side, kowtowed, tears streaming down his face, and was about to say something, when he saw Lu Jue leaning down slightly, staring at him with obsidian eyes. It was frighteningly heavy, with no expression on his face like a white wall: "Tell me, where is the man you arrested that day now?"

Li Huaizhi was stunned for a moment, and his body trembled like sifting chaff. He hurriedly said, "I really didn't arrest anyone! Really! Didn't you, you, you have searched in our house? Really, there is no such person." !" He was raised stupid and ruthless by Li Zhonglian, and he felt that if he admitted it now, then Lu Jue would not save himself...

Lu Jue frowned, and was about to say something when a maid appeared by the door frame. She looked at Lu Jue inside the door, and at Li Huaizhi on the other side. Although her eyes were timid, she still trembled and whispered: "My lord, two days ago, there was indeed a son in our house."

"You, you, you, what nonsense are you talking about?!" Hearing this, Li Huaizhi threw himself on the servant girl hysterically and ruthlessly, but was kicked back to the ground by Lu Jue, his face turned pale with pain, and he couldn't get up anymore He came, but looked at the maid with cruelty and hatred in his eyes.

The maid took a step back in shock from Li Huaizhi's eyes, Lu Jue stood in front of Li Huaizhi and said, "Girl, don't be afraid, just talk. I assure you, you will not be in any danger."

The maid took out a letter from her bosom, handed it to Lu Jue, and said, "He was kidnapped back to the mansion by the young...Li Huaizhi that day, and he hurt Li Huaizhi. We all thought he would throw his life here, but later He left. Before he left, he secretly handed me this letter, and he said that a fairy-like person would come to his house in the future and asked me to give him the letter. "

Lu Jue took the letter, and then a gentle smile appeared on his face, and said: "Thank you, girl. That person is very important to me, and girl has helped me a lot. If you want any reward, just ask."

The servant girl shook her head, her eyes turned red: "That young master has already given me a lot of money, I, I just want to leave this place now." She was sold into a pit of fire by her cruel parents, and lived here every day like walking on eggshells If she is not careful, she will never be able to recover. In her dreams, she wants to leave here, and she will take the risk to help that young master that day because the young master's words hit her heart.

Lu Jue said: "Okay. Girl, wait for a while, I will find a way to find the girl's body certificate, the girl can just leave when the time comes, and leave the rest to me. I promise the girl that the girl will not have any troubles in the future. "

"En." The maid nodded timidly.

Lu Jue opened the letter and looked at ten lines at a glance, the expression on his face finally softened a little, but when he saw the end, he frowned fiercely.

The last sentence in the letter was Xie Qiao's flamboyant words: "Brother Huaiyu, that man touched me with his dirty hands."

After reading the letter, Lu Jue folded it up and put it in his arms. He walked a few steps to Li Huaizhi who was lying on the ground and hadn't recovered yet. Regardless of his obsession with cleanliness, he squatted down and met his eyes with a blank expression on his face. Said: "Which hand did you touch him?"

Li Huaizhi was taken aback for a moment, but subconsciously shook his head quickly.

Lu Jue said, "That means both hands are touched."

As soon as he finished speaking, he put his hand on Li Huaizhi's arm with a cold face and broke it. He heard two clear sounds, and Li Huaizhi let out a scream like a slaughtered pig. After a while, there was no sound, but the pain was completely paralyzed on the ground. He gasped for breath.

After finishing this, Lu Jue stood up, and said to the girl, "Come with me, girl, and I will take you to find the housekeeper in the mansion to get the deed." Although the mansion is chaotic at the moment, the servants here Qi was pressed here, even if he ran away, he would have to worry about his future.The housekeeper here is greedy, Li Zhonglian died, the house was in chaos, he should be cleaning up the house at this time.

Walking to the door, Lu Jue thought for a while, then turned his back to Li Huaizhi and left a sentence: "The person you touched, named Xie Qiao, is His Royal Highness Prince Ming of Dasheng, who is the younger brother of the emperor. I will not kill him today." You, just because you still have to suffer, to pay the debt."

Li Huaizhi collapsed on the ground and opened his eyes wide in fright, and finally passed out completely from fright.

……

Lu Jue followed the servant girl's instructions to find the warehouse in the mansion, and sure enough, he saw the warehouse opened, and the housekeeper was moving things inside.Lu Jue's sword rested on the opponent's neck, and the opponent just knelt down and shouted for mercy.

Lu Jue said quickly: "You are the housekeeper, you know the affairs of this mansion best. I want you to pay back all the innocent servants in the mansion and let them go. Those who do evil in daily life will be arrested together with Li Huaizhi." Waiting in the mansion for liquidation in the future."

The other party was about to say something when Lu Jue narrowed his eyes and said, "You know who I am, His Majesty has given me the right to do things cheaply, you have to know that I just haven't had time to transfer people from Luzhou to here in the future That's all."

The butler trembled when he heard this, he knew that what Lu Jue said was the truth.The reason why his county magistrate looked like he suppressed Lu Jue before was nothing more than because Lu Jue alone had no soldiers and no power in Tai County. Now it seems that there is another more important reason: Lu Jue really wanted to find him. The person who was in the middle of the game was very cautious, he was in a hurry to find someone, and it took time to call someone who could be used from Luzhou, so...

"Please don't worry, my lord. My little one knows." The butler is very sensible. Anyway, the county magistrate is dead. If he wants to save his life at this time, he can only listen to Lu Jue's words, and then put the blame on Li Zhonglian.

The servant girl got the body deed, and Lu Jue remembered that there was still the man in the woods, so she said to the servant girl, "Miss, can you do me another favor?"

Lu Jue and Xie Qiao are her benefactors, so she nodded.Lu Jue said quickly, "Can you ask the girl to go to the Yuelai Inn and pass a message for me?"

The maid nodded, and Lu Jue explained a few words to her, and she went to the inn to find someone as Lu Jue said.

Lu Jue then walked into the woods.

Xie Qiao wrote that there might be a plague in Zhoucun, and asked him to take the doctor to Zhoucun to find him.However, if there is a plague, the doctor alone is not enough, and the army is also necessary.The county magistrate of Tai County needs someone to clear up the matter, so he can only ask Xu to go to Luzhou to transfer people.

Time was urgent, so he could only tell Xu Lai to take the doctor and the man caught today to Zhoucun to find Xie Qiao.

……

The moon was shining today, as soon as Lu Jue entered the forest, he saw the man standing on the ground like a sculpture, motionless.He said: "I'm going to Zhoucun later, so I don't have time to listen to what you say. I just want to know what you mean when you said that this place will become a dead city."

The man was taken aback after hearing the words, and said in a blunt voice: "It's a coincidence. I'm going to Zhoucun too. But I advise you, if you don't want to die, don't go to that place."

Lu Jue frowned, and his heart trembled: Xie Qiao said that there might be a plague in Zhoucun, but now it seems that it is true, and it has already been posted... I don't know how Xie Qiao is there.

Now it seems that this person is still the one who knows the key to the Zhoucun plague, so he cannot be let go.

So Lu Jue said to the man: "Then you will walk with me later."

The man froze for a moment, but finally nodded.

……

The bamboo forest outside Zhoucun Village.

Xie Qiao lit a fire to cook porridge in the wooden house in the bamboo forest.The moonlight from the sky fell into the woods, scattered and indistinct, and even this wooden house was covered with fragments of moonlight.Xie Qiao looked at the moonlight and smiled: Lu Jue should come too, but I don't know how angry he will be when he sees him, even if he is accounted for that night, maybe he will really beat him up.

It was worth getting beaten up to see him.Xie Qiao thought with a smile.

The moonlight shone into the corner of the room, and the white cloth piled up on the floor was seen.
