Although the city lord's wife has long seen through the white-eyed wolf nature of the current city lord over the years, his viciousness that even his own son can do is still very sad for the city lord's wife. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Of course, it wasn't the suffering of the city lord's wife that attracted the attention of Jing Hong and Yun Qi.

In the initial narrative of those soldiers, this city lord's wife is clearly a strange woman who does not let her eyebrows go, she is gentle and martial, both shrewd and capable, how could such a woman suddenly collapse in the later period?

With her parents suddenly dying and her son missing for no reason, how could she not feel strange at all?

So, what was stopping her from investigating? To be on guard? To fight back?

When the noble concubine entered the door, gave birth in half a year, and even her only remaining youngest son was almost poisoned, her husband embarrassed her and supported the concubine so clearly, how could she still trust him and be affectionate?

As a shrewd and capable strange woman with both civil and military skills, if she gets serious, how can the so-called city lord who is not literate, martial arts, sweep their mother and son out so easily!

Not to mention that he also blackened his heart and lost his conscience, not only threw out the spiritual positions of his uncle and aunt who raised him single-handedly and his long-dead grandfather's family out of the city lord's mansion, but also caused people to get his two young sons out of the city in an attempt to let them die in the chaos.

In the face of such a scumbag, if this city lord's wife had really helped her father deal with government affairs, and she was really assertive and capable, how could she not take revenge on him!

But Jing Hong and Yun Qi heard those soldiers say that this city lord's wife was just shrinking in her room on the manor every day to mourn and cry, not to mention revenge on the city lord's scum, and she didn't even pay attention to the trivial matters around her.

If it weren't for the protection of a number of loyal old servants left by her parents, I am afraid that she and her youngest son and daughter-in-law would not only be driven to the Zhuangzi, but also her eldest son and second son, which would never be so easy to be found.

Those soldiers said that she had suffered too much damage and had lost the spirit of her early years, but Jinghong felt that there was something strange about it.

The three of them sat in the teahouse for about a day, and Jinghong paid the money, and followed Yun Qi and Qinghui out of the private room with satisfaction.

After finding a small restaurant for dinner, the three of them took advantage of the night to climb over the wall and leave the city.

During the day, they had already found out the location of the manor where the city lord's wife and her three sons lived, and Jing Hong decided to go over tonight to investigate.

Yun Qi carried Qinghui all the way, and Jinghong followed him with his hands in his hands, and the three of them jumped up and down all the way, and it took less than a quarter of an hour to reach their destination, the manor of the city lord's wife.

The manor was built in a canyon that was narrow on the outside and wide on the inside, with only one exit for people to enter and exit, and the mountains on both sides of the canyon were barren and steep, and there was no way for people to climb at all.

As long as the people who live in the canyon close the heavy stone gate at the mouth of the valley, the inside of the canyon can become a world of its own, and if the people from the outside want to force it in, it will undoubtedly take a lot of effort.

On the periphery of the mountains on both sides of the canyon, there are two wide and deep rivers flowing through them, which originally came from the same river, but were forced to diverge from the outside of the mountain because of the towering peaks that reached into the clouds and were hollow inside.

The diverted water rejoins into a stream not far from the exit of the canyon, but because two rivers with different flows meet here, the direction and speed of the river here have been unstable, and people who are not familiar with this body of water or have average boat skills cannot approach the exit of the canyon from here.

The natural barrier formed by the mountain peaks and the flow of water kept out the malice of the lord and his concubines, and provided the last refuge for the lord's wife and her three sons.

Of course, with the current power of the city lord and the current downfall of the city lord's wife, the safety of their mother and son is obviously not enough to rely on this last refuge.

Jing Hong and Yun Qi both knew that if it weren't for the fact that the city lord's wife and her three sons had now completely fallen to the bottom, and there was no way to pose a threat to the city lord and his concubines, if it weren't for the fact that the price they had to pay to deal with their mother and son was far less than the rewards they could get, then there was a chance that their mother and son's last refuge would not be able to stay.

Although the two of them did not have the intention of rushing up to help the city lord's wife fight the grievances with their enthusiasm, they were still very willing to rescue the city lord's wife while sealing the soul hunter.

With Qinghui across the wide river and over the heavy stone gate at the entrance of the canyon, the two of them walked straight to the small courtyard where the city lord's wife lived alone in the backyard of the manor.

At this time, most of the people in the manor had fallen asleep, but in the courtyard of the city lord's wife, the lamp was still lit in the bedroom on the landlord's side.

Jing Hong and Yun Qi's spiritual senses soon found out that there was only one woman in the room who looked haggard, weak, and had a bitter and hateful expression on her face.

Her sideburns were gray, and there were deep wrinkles between her eyebrows, which she had obviously frowned a lot before.

The three of them touched the courtyard, Yun Qi and Qinghui stayed outside the house because they were afraid of the difference between men and women, while Jinghong quietly sneaked through the hall and into the inner room on the east side.

The woman did not notice that there was an extra person in the room, and she was sitting quietly at the round black table, rubbing a jade hairpin in her hand with a complicated expression.

Jing Hong was hesitating whether to show up at all, but the woman suddenly spurted out a mouthful of black blood.

She curled up in pain, but she still clutched the jade hairpin tightly in her hands.

"Jing'er...... Ya'er ......" A barely audible whisper escaped the woman's mouth, and her face gradually began to turn white to blue.

Jing Hong couldn't care about anything else, so he hurriedly clasped the woman's wrist with one hand, and threw a pill that could cure all poisons into the woman's mouth with the other.

Yun Qi saw that the situation was not right, and rushed in with Qinghui.

At the same time, something that could not be seen or touched was creeping towards the woman's body.

Jing Hong's heart sank, and he hurriedly sent a message to Yun Qi to take out the purple and yellow boxes they had prepared before.

These two boxes are the bottom of the purple abyss to deal with the soul hunter of worry and the yellow flame light to deal with the soul hunter of fear, and the reason why they prepared two is because Jing Hong and Yun Qi are not sure whether the soul hunter who controls the city lord's wife is worried or afraid.

Yun Qi's movements were very fast, and the two colored boxes were quickly held in his hands one by one.
