Chapter 104 The Unjust Death of a Little Peasant Girl 12
Young Master Lu always felt that something was wrong, but the chance to escape was so tempting that he finally couldn't resist the temptation. He carefully observed her expression while walking out cautiously.
He was really careful, even taking the small steps he usually took to look at his concubine, and walked to the door of the room with trepidation, only to see that she really had no intention of stopping him.
He was overjoyed and no longer worried. He took three or two steps to the door, opened it, and rushed out, shouting, "Hurry up, there's an assassin!"
Then... there is no more...
The door was clearly open, but he seemed to have hit a wall. With a "bang", a big bruise appeared on his head. There was a buzzing sound, and he fell to the ground dizzy.
It took him a while to regain his consciousness. He reached out his hand to touch it desperately, but he only felt a cold invisible barrier, isolating him firmly from hope.
"Magic, magic...you...you are not human..." Young Master Lu slumped to the ground, looking at Xiaoshaxing with horror, no longer having the slightest desire to resist.
"Ah--"
A faint laugh frightened Young Master Lu so much that he trembled and burst into tears and snot: "Don't... don't kill me, the things are in the room, I'll get them for you..."
After saying that, he got up in a panic and stumbled towards the inner room.
After searching through boxes and cabinets for a while, he held a green cloth package in his hands and handed it to Shen Yuan with a flattering look: "This is it, it's all here, please check it out, little heroine..."
The package was tattered, with some dust marks and blood stains that had dried and turned black, which was not at all in keeping with this magnificent room.
Shen Yuan raised an eyebrow: "Where did it come from?"
Then he looked so frightened that she didn't dare to lie to herself. What she was curious about was that this thing was so dirty, and Young Master Lu didn't seem like the kind of person who would tolerate this, so he was willing to hide it in his dormitory.
"It's a long story..."
"Then let's make it short." Shen Yuan interrupted him without any courtesy.
Mr. Lu was choked, but he didn't dare to get angry. Instead, he smiled at her flatteringly and spoke as concisely as possible.
Last year, he went hunting in the mountains with a group of friends, but got separated from the group. When he was looking for the main group, he met a Taoist priest lying on the side of the path, covered in blood.
Young Master Lu was not a good man who would stand up for justice. He just glanced at him and didn't intend to pay any attention to him. However, the Taoist used his last bit of strength and promised to teach him advanced magic in exchange for saving his life.
This really aroused his curiosity. For him, it was not a big deal to just call a Taoist priest.
Besides, he has many servants in his house, so he is not afraid of encountering scammers. At worst, he can just beat them up to vent his anger.
So he lifted the Taoist priest onto his horse and took him away.
But what Mr. Lu didn't know was that the Taoist priest was already seriously injured and needed to be extremely careful when moving.
He rudely laid the man across the horse, carrying him like an object, and then bumped along the way, which made the man's injuries even worse.
In addition, he had a nonchalant attitude and did not rush to send the man to the hospital. By the time he had enough fun with his friends and brought the man back, the Taoist was already dead.
Hearing this, Shen Yuan couldn't help but hiss in his heart. So not only is there a risk in saving people on the roadside, but there is also a risk in asking for help. If you meet an unreliable person, you will die faster.
But her face was still expressionless. On the contrary, Young Master Lu was filled with grief and indignation, thinking that it was all because of that Taoist priest that he ended up in this situation!
If he hadn't used magic to arouse my curiosity, if he hadn't died and left a package, I wouldn't have seen that book, and those strange things, and I wouldn't have wanted to find someone to try it out...
You'll die if you try!
I hope this little demon star will show some mercy to me because I have confessed my honesty...
At this time, the package was spread out on the table. In addition to a book, there were also some wooden tablets, talismans and other things in it.
Chen Yuan ignored those miscellaneous things and opened the tattered-looking book. He glanced through it and found that it was full of instructions on how to make formations and draw talismans.
It was all normal in the beginning, but from the middle onwards, it was all about "taking away luck" and "dispersing energy", which didn't look very serious.
She flipped through the wooden tablets and talisman papers again. The ones in the front were not there, but they matched the ones in the back. She couldn't help but suspect that the Taoist priest might not be a good person.
Chen Yuan pointed his finger at a few of the wooden tablets and talisman papers and sneered, "This is what you gave to Liu Laosan, right?"
Young Master Lu sucked in a breath of cold air. It took him several months to flip through these scrawled things before he could barely tell them apart. Yet, this little Shaxing could tell the difference at a glance.
"Yes, the little heroine has a very good eyesight." He became more and more convinced of his suspicion that she, like the Taoist priest, knew magic.
The legends he had heard before emerged in his mind, about extracting souls to refine weapons, about soul-binding and torture... He was so frightened that his face turned even paler.
I was afraid that she would kill me before, but now I think it would be a good thing to die easily. If she really sucks my soul away...
Mr. Lu knelt down again with a thump: "I know my crime is unforgivable, I just ask you to kill me!"
Shen Yuan looked at him strangely, not knowing what he was crazy about, but since he begged so much, of course he would grant his wish.
"Okay." She uttered the word lightly and slapped him lightly on the forehead.
Young Master Lu screamed and died in the blink of an eye.
Chen Yuan didn't look at his face that was unwilling to close. He put away the things on the table, wrapped them up casually, picked them up and went out.
The servant outside the house was still dozing off, completely unaware that the master he was guarding had already passed away.
Chen Yuan followed the same route out of Lu's house and found that the gatekeeper and Liu Laosan were not there, which made him feel strange.
She left a hint in Liu Laosan's sea of consciousness that he must meet Lu Sanshao tonight, so even if he was rejected, he would find a way to get in.
He didn't seem to be a man of strong mind, yet he was able to break free from his control. Shen Yuan became interested, and after a slight sense, he found out his current location and followed in that direction.
This time, she followed him to the wilderness and saw someone digging a hole from a distance. She moved closer quietly and found that the man was Shuanzi, the gatekeeper of the Lu Mansion.
There was a person lying on the ground not far from him. Who else could it be but Liu Laosan?
I actually came across a murder and body dumping scene...
Chen Yuan withdrew the energy left on Liu Laosan with some disappointment, turned around and left uninterested, without reminding Shuanzi that the person he was burying was still alive.
