Chapter 212: Purple Thunder
Liu Hong's heart was occupied by endless fear, and she only felt that there was a man-eating demon in the deep lake, climbing up to drag her down.
She screamed, pleaded, cried for help, and thrashed desperately, her arms paddling and thrashing the water with the strength of milk, but her body seemed to have been caught by a demon underwater, and the more she flopped and struggled, the faster her body sank.
Her strength was quickly exhausted, her body sank, and the water went past her mouth and began to pour into her nose and mouth. When the water passed her eyes, she suddenly saw Li Hongyong standing on the shore with a hideous sneer, and she suddenly realized that the man-eating demon was not under the water, but on the shore.
Li Hongyong stood by the lake, looking at Liu Hong's frightened and desperate expression, struggling in vain, his body slowly sank into the water, a hideous smile slowly bloomed on his face, and he felt that his heart was extremely happy, as if it was not Liu Hong who was about to drown in the lake, but Tianwu Dao people, Zhang Xiaopai and the three of them.
Suddenly, a black figure flew from the northwest, and when it reached the lake, it didn't stop, pounced on the lake, grabbed the water with one hand, buckled Liu Hong's shoulder, and slapped the lake with the other hand, and the body flew sideways with the help of force.
There was a bang.
Liu Hong's body was lifted out of the water by the black figure's shoulders, and then jumped to the shore with the black figure.
"Zhang Xiaopaw, you have gone too far!"
"Lao Tzu disciplines the servants in the family, is it your turn to intervene?"
"You get out of the way!"
When Li Hongyong saw that Zhang Xiaopaw suddenly came out and saved Liu Hong, he was so angry that he roared at Zhang Xiaopaw.
"Liu Hong?!" The black figure that suddenly came out was Zhang Xiaopaw, he heard the sound of help from a distance and rushed over, and saw that the person he saved in his arms turned out to be Liu Hong, who had just served him to wash, and couldn't help but exclaim.
He ignored Li Hongyong, hurriedly put Liu Hongping on the ground, and then pressed her abdomen behind him.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem"
Fortunately, Liu Hong's flooding time was not too long, Zhang Xiaopaw pressed twice to squeeze out the water that was choking in her throat, and she coughed and vomited violently one after another, vomiting all the water poured into her stomach.
"Zhang Xiaopu, you get out of the way of Lao Tzu! This cheap maid has violated the family rules, and Lao Tzu will severely punish her. Li Hongyong shouted angrily.
Zhang Xiaopu looked at Li Hongyong fiercely and shouted: "In broad daylight, you actually careless of human life, and you still speak so eloquently, do you still have the law of the king of heaven in your eyes?"
"Oh, it's so funny!" Li Hongyong sneered, pointed at Liu Hong and said: "She is a cheap maid who sold herself into the Li Mansion, and Lao Tzu is the master of the Li Mansion, according to Dayu's law, Lao Tzu has the right to kill her, not to mention that she also violated the family rules, Lao Tzu punished her, which is reasonable and legal." On the contrary, you, like a robber, forcibly occupy other people's mansions, plunder other people's wealth, and forcibly interfere in other people's family affairs, but can the Heavenly Principle King take care of you?"
Zhang Xiaopaw was reprimanded by Li Hongyong and was speechless.
"Childe, save the slave!" Liu Hong hugged Zhang Xiaopaw's arm and begged as if she were grasping a life-saving straw. She hugged her sideways, and a piece of flesh and blood behind her was blurred and exposed, which was caused by Li Hongyong grabbing her hair and dragging it all the way just now.
She saw that Zhang Xiaopu was speechless by Li Hongyong, for fear that Zhang Xiaopu would leave her alone, and her heart became more and more panicked, and she eagerly explained: "Childe, the slave and maid did not violate the house rules, the son rewarded the slave and maid with half a basin of water, and the maid wanted to put it in a water bladder and drink it slowly, but the seventh master said that the slave and maid stole the water in the house, and wanted to throw the slave and maid into the lotus lake and drown." Woo, childe, the slave is wronged. Woo."
The more Liu Hong spoke, the more aggrieved she became, and in the end she couldn't cry.
"That half basin of water was indeed given to her by me, and you wronged her. Zhang Xiaopaw looked at Li Hongyong and said, "Although I don't understand the law of Dayu, I am sure of one thing, there must be a clear provision in the law, even if it is a lowly person who sells himself into slavery, the master's family cannot abuse and kill at will, because this is the most basic human ethics." ”
"Well, I don't have the consciousness to be a robber. ”
"There's time for you to be the boss and femdom. ”
Niu Dawa, who came over later, stood aside and listened to Zhang Xiaopaw and Li Hongyong reasoning, couldn't help but sigh and shook his head, and reminded Zhou Jianlai beside him.
Zhou Jianlai nodded in agreement.
Out of the corner of his eye, Li Hongyong saw that the Tianwu Daoist came from not far away, and he didn't dare to provoke this old thief who killed people without saying a word, so he immediately shook his sleeves and snorted coldly, turned around and left. walked far away, but the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, he was the seventh master of the Li family
, In his own home, he couldn't even help a cheap maid, he really couldn't swallow this breath, and couldn't help cursing in a low voice: "Cheap maid, after they leave, see how Lao Tzu tortures you, it's hard for you to die when you want to." Hmph!"
His voice was very small, and he was talking to himself, but Zhang Xiaopaw had excellent ear power and could hear it clearly. Zhang Xiaopaw was immediately furious, and suddenly stood up and shouted at Li Hongyong, who was far away: "Go back and wash your neck and wait, Lao Tzu will kill you this afternoon!"
"Heh" Li Hongyong turned around and sneered when he heard this, and said, "Accompany you to the end!"
"Childe, thank you for saving your life! The slave has nothing to repay in this life, and she will repay you as a cow and a horse in the next life. Liu Hong knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Zhang Xiaopaw to thank him.
Looking at Li Hongyong's back as he disappeared into the corner in the distance, Zhang Xiaopaw felt helpless, and sighed: "He is right, you are the maid of the Li Mansion after all, I can protect you for a while, but I can't protect you for a lifetime." When we're gone, he'll probably be hard for you. ”
"Maybe this is the life of the slave and the maid, and the slave and the maid admit it. Liu Hong said with a gloomy expression, her heart that was still stealing joy just now to get back a life has become gloomy at the moment, feeling like a small ant, it is impossible to escape Li Hongyong's clutches.
"It's not hard to save her life. Zhou Jianlai said.
"Brother Zhou, what's the best plan?" asked Zhang Xiaopaw.
"It's not simple, let's take her away when we leave, and the Li family still dares to say half a 'no'?" Niu Dawa said.
"That's a way to do it. Zhou Jianlai nodded and said, "But it's better to find her deed of sale, find the government to transfer her cheap status from the Li Mansion, or directly cancel her cheap status and give her a new household registration." Otherwise, the Li family always had a reason to trouble her, and it was legitimate, and if the escaped maidservant was caught, he would be directly deprived of his lowly status and reduced to slavery. ”
This kind of thing, Zhou Jianlai obviously understands more than the two of them.
"It's troublesome. Niu Dawa scratched her head when she heard this. Zhang Xiaopaw also frowned, dealing with the government, the Li family is the head of the land, they are outsiders who are not welcomed, and they know that it is not easy to do it when they think about it.
"Actually, it's not a hassle. The corners of Zhou Jianlai's mouth suddenly hooked up a wicked smile, and said: "You go to the treasure house to find a priceless treasure, and in front of the Li family, let them eliminate her cheap registration and a civilian household registration, otherwise you will drop the treasure to them, and they will definitely obey." ”
"Hey, that's a good idea. Niu Dawa said.
"Just do what Brother Zhou said. Zhang Xiaopaw nodded.
"Thank you for the great kindness of the three sons! Thank you for the great kindness of the three sons" Liu Hong heard the conversation of Zhang Xiaopai and the three of them, and her cheeks were bloodshot and trembling with excitement for a while, and she kowtowed to Zhang Xiaopaw and the three of them while thanking them.
"Get up. Zhang Xiaopaw helped Liu Hong up and said, "You go back first and deal with the injury on your back, and we will help you decide other things." Go ahead. ”
"The slave and maid are gone. ”
Liu Hong's back was dripping with blood, but her heart was extremely happy, and she almost jumped back to the small courtyard where she lived, looking at the wooden basin that fell on the ground at the gate of the courtyard, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook, and she bent down to pick up the wooden basin, and decided to treasure it, because it brought her a turn of fate.
Walking to the door of the room, she suddenly heard a low cry in the room, and hurriedly pushed the door in, and sure enough, she saw someone hiding her face and crying, it was her good sister Liu Lu, and the two of them entered the house at the same time, so the name of the reward was only one word missing.
She saw Liu Lu wrapped her body in a thin quilt, shrunk in the corner of the wall against the wall, burying her head deep between her knees and sobbing, and saw that her hair was fluffy and messy, thinking of Li Hongyong appearing in the courtyard of their maidservant, a bad guess suddenly appeared in her heart, and she didn't care about the injuries on her back, put down the wooden basin and ran over to eagerly ask what was going on.
Liu Lu looked up and saw her, and immediately cried more aggrieved and desolate.
Liu Hong asked twice, and Liu Lu choked up and told her tragic experience.
It turned out that she was in charge of serving Li Hongyong last night, but she was abused by Li Hongyong, and she ran back in the middle of the night in disheveled clothes, and no one dared to say anything. This morning she was scared, so she didn't dare to serve Li Hongyong to get up and wash, who knew that Li Hongyong actually found here, saw that there was no one in the yard, and trampled her again, and warned her not to talk nonsense, otherwise he would throw her into the lotus lake and drown.
"Beast, beast, he can't die well!" Liu Hong scolded after hearing this, but there was nothing she could do, so she could only hug Liu Lu and cry.
"Sister, what should I do? Sooner or later, this matter will be the seventh room
Grandma knew, she would throw me into the lotus lake and drown. Woo."
"My poor sister, why is your life so miserable. ”
"Sister, I have a stomachache and my body is so cold. ”
"I'll see. Ah" Liu Hong lifted the corner of the thin quilt, looked at Liu Lu's lower body, and saw that there was a pool of red blood on the bed under her buttocks, and suddenly screamed in fright, and hurriedly helped Liu Lu to lie down, and then took out a small medicine bottle from under the mat of her bed, poured out a green pill from it, thought about it and poured out the remaining one, ran over to give Liu Lu a drink, and ordered: "You lie down and don't move, I'll go boil hot water for you, don't sleep, don't sleep." ”
After speaking, he grabbed the door with a wooden basin and ran in the direction of the kitchen.
......
The three of Tianwu Dao and Zhang Xiaoshu had breakfast, and a group of four people came to the martial arts training ground.
Zhang Xiaopaw and the three of them thought of the miserable experience of being abolished by the Heavenly Martial Dao people yesterday afternoon, and they all trembled involuntarily when they stepped into the door of the martial arts training ground.
The Heavenly Martial Dao people did not rush to train the three of them, but let them familiarize themselves with the new body first. In fact, as soon as the three of them woke up this morning, they noticed the changes in their bodies, but they didn't have time to feel it carefully.
Zhang Xiaopu ran quickly along the track of the martial arts arena, and at the same time made various attack moves, and was pleasantly surprised to find that his strength and speed had increased significantly, and the coordination ability of his body had been significantly improved, and the Hantan dance steps were more mellow and natural.
Zhou Jianlai and Niu Dawa's feelings are much stronger than Zhang Xiaopaw's, because Zhang Xiaopaw's body has already eliminated impurities and toxins, when Zhou Jianlai used to cultivate in the family, although he often used medicinal baths to eliminate impurities in his body, but compared to the medicinal baths prepared by Tianwu Dao people, and with the massage of the power of the stars, his medicinal baths in the family are not worth mentioning at all, and Niu Dawa is the real first medicinal bath to detoxify impurities.
The two of them only felt that their bodies were much lighter, every pore on their bodies seemed to be stretched, and they were breathing fresh air, and at the same time, the joints were as smooth as oil, and the toughness and dexterity were qualitatively improved, and then the whole body became stronger and more compact, and the strength and speed were almost doubled, and it felt like the three battle gates were forcibly doubled.
For Zhang Xiaopaw and Niu Dawa, who had cultivated to a rapid improvement due to a great opportunity, the changes in their bodies and the improvement of their combat power really surprised them, but they were not too excited and excited, because they were almost numb to this kind of improvement.
But Zhou Jianlai was different, it was the first time he felt this kind of flying-like ascension speed, and the shock in his heart was indescribable. After more than ten years of hard work since he was a child, the cultivation results he obtained were almost inferior to the improvement that the Heavenly Martial Dao people had brought to his body in an afternoon and a night. This feeling is both shocking and lonely, and there is a feeling that more than ten years of hard work has been denied.
Of course, it was more of a surprise, a rapture, because it was his big chance, not someone else's.
Half an hour later, seeing that the three of them were already familiar with each other, the Tianwu Daoist called them to him, handed Zhou Jian a long sword he took from the weapon rack, and said, "Come, stab the old man with a sword, the kind with thunder." The old man suppressed his cultivation to the same level as you. ”
Zhou Jianlai took the sword and said, "Senior, I'm offended." ”
After saying that, he took two steps back, and the horizontal sword was in the air, and the sword body was buzzing, as if he couldn't wait to attack.
"The fifth style of the Falling Thunder Sword, the blue waves and clear sky, the thunderbolt on the sunny day!"
With the sound of Zhou Jianlai, a light purple lightning fell from the sky, adding to his body and sword, and then he slammed out his sword, and this towards the Heavenly Martial Dao man not far in front of him.
"It's already cultivated into Purple Thunder, it's good, it's good!" The Tianwu Daoist nodded in appreciation, then stared at him, and shouted: "I just don't know how to use it, it's a pity, it's a pity." ”
He stretched out his right hand, put his thumb and middle finger together, and flicked one finger towards the tip of the sword that Zhou Jianlai had stabbed.
The two struck together, only to see a dazzling white light appear at the fingertips of the Heavenly Martial Dao people, accompanied by a low thunderous sound, the dazzling white light quickly exploded in an instant, with a tyrannical lightning thunder, directly engulfing Zhou Jianlai's sword and people.
Bang!
Zhou Jianlai flew out upside down and fell to the ground, his body convulsed, and wisps of white smoke were emitted, as if he had been thundered.
Zhang Xiaopaw and Niu Dawa cast sympathetic glances at Zhou Jianlai, and at the same time quietly took a step back, feeling that the Heavenly Martial Dao people were too dangerous, and it was better to stay away.
