The ancient journey of modern alchemists

It turned out that the bottom of the cliff was a blocked valley. Yan Mo was lucky enough to find a small path that could only accommodate one person to walk sideways. Although there was a little trouble on the way, it was resolved smoothly.

Thinking of the savings bag and jade box in his arms, Yan Mo was overjoyed, and couldn't wait to go home and share it with Liu Ma and the pawns.

Humming a ditty, walking briskly, seeing his small courtyard in front of him, Yan Mo stopped his steps and suppressed his smile.The fact that there were two guards standing at the gate of his small courtyard immediately made Yan Mo realize that something was wrong, it must be the old witch.

Yan Mo took advantage of the fact that the two guards didn't notice that he turned sideways to one side. There was a small piece of dense bamboo. When he reached the far corner, Yan Mo pulled away the accumulated dead leaves, revealing a small space that could only accommodate one person to get through. Hole.

Without the slightest hesitation, Yan Mo got in, and it was connected to the toilet in the corner of his small courtyard.

The latrine was cleaned very clean by Mama Liu and there was no particularly strong odor, and the hole was covered up, so Yan Mo opened the door a little and secretly watched the situation outside.

It was good that he couldn't see it from the front, but Yan Mo was almost blown away by seeing it.

In the small and simple courtyard, the sound of "pop, pop" was heard endlessly. The pawn was pressed down by two big men, and one stick after another was greeted to him. As miserable as it was, Mama Liu knelt down and kowtowed vigorously.

"Madam, I beg you to be merciful! I beg you!" Liu Ma begged and crawled towards Xiao Shi's feet, her forehead was broken and her eyes were red, but she was stopped by Xiao Shi's two maidservants.

The main wife, Xiao Shi, sat on the chair and took a sip of tea slowly, as if she was enjoying the flowers in the back garden. Seeing that the beating was almost done, she raised her hand to ask the people under her to stop the sticks.

"As long as you tell about Yu Linglong's whereabouts, I can punish you lightly, otherwise you deserve it if you are beaten to death!" Xiao Shi picked up the handkerchief and wiped it lightly, before speaking slowly.

Liu Ma raised her head and said sadly, "Madam was wronged, we really didn't take it."

"It's obvious that you stole it. It was this kid who bumped into me, and my Yu Linglong disappeared after that! Mother, they must have stolen it! Yu Linglong is made of thousand-year-old cold jade and is very valuable. !” A young man stood beside him, pointed at the pawn lying on the stool, and decided that it was the pawn who stole his jade pendant.

"I didn't steal it!" The pawn raised his head with difficulty, his eyes determined.

"You stole it. Mother, you have to make the decision for the child. How dare this servant who doesn't know what is good or bad steal the coming-of-age gift from my father!" Yan Zhe didn't listen to the pawn's excuse at all.

"Master said you stole it, it must be you who stole it. You bumped into Master this morning, and I saw it too!" A follower who was not much older than the pawn jumped out. The certificate was stolen by the pawn. He glanced at the pawn proudly.

"Since you don't want to say it, then I'll teach you how to be servants, what are the house rules! Keep fighting, and don't stop until I say stop!" After Xiao Shi finished speaking, the two big men raised their wooden sticks and were about to get off. Ruthless.

"Stop!" Yan Mo rushed in from the gate in time.

"Why stop! Keep beating!" Xiao ignored Yan Mo who suddenly rushed in, but let the two thugs continue beating the pawn.

"I said stop, did you hear me!" Yan Mo sternly yelled, and then said to Xiao Shi: "Mother, do you want to beat me to death!" After hearing this, Xiao raised her hand to stop the sticks of the two big men, and she shifted her gaze to Yan Mo said on his body: "How can torture become a trick? Everyone says that it is impossible to guard against house thieves. I am just following the family rules, warning some sneaky people to let them understand what is the rule of our Yanfu."

"That's right, my mother is just helping you train a servant. It's for your own good, so that he won't steal from you." Xiao's son Yan Zhe is quite eloquent and can turn black into white. .

"Then Yan Mo would like to thank my lord mother. My majestic Blue Moon Empire has strict laws. Naturally, those who steal chickens and dogs will be severely punished, and it is not a pity to kill them." Yan Mo calmly made a bow to Xiao. , as if agreeing with Xiao's approach.

As soon as Yan Zhe heard it, he said triumphantly, "You know the truth, hurry up and ask your servants to hand over my Yu Linglong, and I can still say a few nice words to you in front of my father!"
