Chapter 42: Seeking Revenge

Wei Lai walked into Luoyi Alley again, and the few officials in Gutong City sealed the house in the depths of the alley, and there were still many people around the small courtyard pointing and pointing, and there were different opinions.

The officials were pretending to interrogate the people around them if they had seen or heard anything last night.

The Yu family has really had a bit of a nest over the years, and there are many people from the Hu family among the officials in Gutongcheng, and the so-called interrogation is just a formality, even if Lu Bai pointed out Hu Xu with burning words, those officials are deaf to this.

Wei glanced at the place, didn't stop long, and walked towards the depths of Luoyi Alley.

Lu Wu's injuries are very serious, there are five knife wounds that can be seen in the bones alone, and yesterday Wei Lai has sent him to Wang Daoan's place, the old gentleman seems to be inconspicuous, but his medical skills are amazingly high, and after a busy time, Lu Wu has no worries about his life. Wei came to look for Yu Tong, hoping that the little marquis could come forward to understand the matter, but he didn't want to be rejected, he was not depressed at the moment, but he still had to tell Lu Bai, who was guarding Lu Wu, the news.

He walked through the crowd to the inconspicuous courtyard, and was about to open the door, but the door was opened from the inside.

But it was Wang Daoan and Lu Bai, as well as Long Xiu and others who came to visit.

Everyone was also shocked when they saw Wei Lai, but then Sun Daren shouted loudly: "Ah, it's not good! Lu Wu is gone!!

......

The Hu family's mansion is located in the downtown area in the east of Gutongcheng, covering a huge area, and it is much stronger than the so-called Yuhou Mansion in terms of size and decoration. If the plaque on the door of the mansion is covered, the strangers who don't know anything will definitely regard this Hu family's mansion as the Hou Ye's mansion.

A man slowly limped through the alley to the gate of the magnificent mansion.

He looked up at the gate of the house, the gate was majestic, there were mighty lions standing on both sides, there were pillars made of mahogany to support the lintel, and at the door stood two guards with knives, with straight waists and lofty instruments.

The man stared at them, and something seemed to light up, burn, and cover his entire eyeball.

......

"Are you alright?"

"I just saw you unconscious on the side of the road, so I told my brother to drag you back. ”

"Don't move, take a good rest, Grandpa Wang said, if you walk around before your leg is healed, you won't be lame for the rest of your life!"

......

"Did you send these things?"

"Don't send it in the future, my brother works in the Bafang Inn, and I can also do some needlework, I can save a lot of money in a month, or I will be able to save enough for my brother to get rid of slavery in a few years. ”

"Brother Lu is also working hard to make money, so you have to think more about yourself. ”

...... "I heard someone else say something about Brother Lu......"

"I don't believe it, I think Brother Lu is a good person. Brother Lu won't do anything like that in the future, okay?"

"Making money and doing things in a down-to-earth manner is actually not as difficult as Brother Lu thought. ”

......

"My father was killed by the government for money. My brother and sister were implicated and enslaved. ”

"I know Brother Lu's thoughts, treat me well, and I know it, but I don't want Brother Lu to keep going like this......"

"No, I didn't mean that. ”

"I just want Brother Lu to promise me that I won't do such things again in the future, and we will ...... together Wouldn't it be nice to live a down-to-earth life together?"

All kinds of past flashes in the man's mind one by one like a streamer, and everything is vivid, as if you can still smell her body and feel her temperature......

"Hey, I'm talking about you, why are you standing there? This is Hu Mansion, not a place where you can go wild. ”

Suddenly, a voice with a hint of anger rang out, pulling the man back from his thoughts.

He raised his head a little blankly, but saw that the two guards with knives at the gate of Hu's mansion had already walked in front of him at some point, and one of them pointed to the bridge of his nose and asked in a loud voice.

The man turned his head sideways to look behind the two guards, and there seemed to be something in the claustrophobic door that attracted the man, so much so that he turned a deaf ear to the questions of the two stout guards around him.

The two guards glanced at each other, both a little dissatisfied, and one of them even stretched out his hand, pushed the man hard, and shouted: "Toast and don't eat and drink, this is Hu Mansion!

The man's body seemed to be weak, and under such a push, he almost fell to the ground, and only after retreating a few steps could he barely stabilize his figure.

Seeing this, the two of them sneered again, and after scolding softly in their mouths, they turned around and walked towards the mansion gate - guarding the mansion gate is actually a very boring thing, one stop is several hours, and the symbolism of doing so is far greater than the actual significance, the status of the Hu family in Gutong City The people in Gutong City are well known, at least in the more than ten years they have been doing this errand, they have never met a guy who is not long-eyed who really dares to come to Hu Mansion to make trouble.

Occasionally, someone like the man gave them a scolding, but it was also a good pastime.

Of course, they didn't think that the other party would be a guy who came to make trouble, after all, with that weak body, even if he borrowed ten guts, he shouldn't be able to do such a self-defeating thing, that guy is more like a madman or a fool who ran out of somewhere......

Thinking like this, the two of them had already stepped up the stone stairs in front of the mansion. They didn't notice that the weak man was standing still after stabilizing his figure, looking at their backs with blazing eyes.

His body trembled slightly, and a certain hesitation appeared on his pale face, but in an instant it became extremely determined. He took a step towards the two of them, his steps getting faster and faster, and a sharp weapon glowing with cold light in his cuff fell into his hand.

It was a short knife - to be precise, it was made of a finely sharpened piece of iron tied to a wooden handle, and it looked extremely rudimentary, and even because the hemp rope at the junction of the wooden handle and the iron piece had some signs of wearing, so the whole "blade" was a little loose, but as long as you can accurately send such a thing into the neck or heart, it is still enough to take a person's life.

The man thought so, so as he approached the two, he raised his dagger high and aimed it at the neck of one of them. The two men were unaware, still talking about something.

"Old Xu, how are you and the girl from the Chengxi Luo family now, brother, I'm still waiting to drink your wine!?" one of them asked.

"Come on, come on, Xiaotong's father and mother have agreed the day before yesterday, and I will ask the head of the Hu family for a few days off in a few days, so that I can prepare for the dowry, Xiaotong is such a good girl, I must welcome him into the door in a beautiful way." The other looked sideways at his companion and said this.

Even if the man is in a position, he can only see the side face of the other party, but he can still feel the sincere smile and joy on the other party's face when he says this. The man lifted it high, and the "short knife" aimed at the back of the opponent's neck was stunned at that time, and he could no longer stab forward as he had planned......

"I can't see it, I don't see you, you're still a lover...... " The man's companion also turned his head to laugh and teased, but before he could finish speaking, he caught a glimpse of the man holding a sharp weapon hanging in the air.

His heart skipped a beat, and he shouted, "Be careful!"

A hand stretched out suddenly, bombarded the man's wrist, the "short knife" flew out, the guard named Lao Xu also came back to his senses, turned his head to look behind him, and saw that the man was bending down to pick up the "short knife", he naturally would not let him succeed, the familiar grappling method shot, and after a while, the weak man was caught by the two tall guards, unable to move.

He didn't care about his upcoming fate, just stared at the short knife that fell in two not far from the ground, his eyes red with blood, and he struggled to reach out and pick up the thing.

Tears poured out of his eyes, and he shouted like a madman.

"Let go of me! I'm going to kill Hu Xu!"

"Kill Hu Xu!"

The voice was hoarse, compassionate, and high-pitched, and resounded from the doorways of Hu's mansion and spread throughout the streets, somewhat distorted, like the wails of some wild beast at the end of its rope.
