Sit peacefully on your knees.

His face was bruised from scratches on the ground, and his body was blue and purple, full of marks of beatings.

From the flesh to the muscles and bones, the body is full of pain.

However, compared to the physical pain, the suffering of peace in the heart is more than this.

He simply could not face such a fact.

The beads are gone, and people are locked up in prison, without a little freedom.

I'm afraid that later, I will be punished by the county guard in the name of the demon.

The thought of the loss of the bead in his hand made him feel ashamed.

In his heart, he hoped that the god or the water dragon would come back to the world and take the bead back.

And I was afraid to see them again.

Fear of facing their reproaches.

In peace, there is panic and guilt.

In the end, he had to kneel on the ground and muttered a prayer.

Cao Ruo sent Pinghe to prison, called his subordinates, and gave him a few orders, ordering him to fabricate charges, and he no longer cared about this time.

For a high-ranking official of Cao Ruo's level, this is just a trivial matter.

No matter how important a red bead is, it is just an object.

No matter how famous Pinghe is, he is just a small person under his rule in Tianyang County.

He took the beads and went back to his house with his wife.

The daughter also came to the two of them.

She had only heard that someone had cured her, but she didn't care what happened to that person.

"Dad, mother, you give me the beads to play with!"

The daughter said delicately.

"Good daughter, you can't touch this bead casually, it's better for your father to hold it, if you like it, your father will bring it to you every day."

Cao Ruo coaxed her daughter, but she kept holding the beads in her hands and didn't give them to her easily.

Since he got the red bead, he has also seen the four squares in the air.

Surgery or something, Cao Ruo tried it and didn't care, he didn't have any interest in curing the disease.

Life energy or something, it seems that it can make people healthy, but this should be turned on from time to time.

As for turning stones into gold, Cao Ruo decided to try it himself when no one was around.

He didn't even tell his wife about these things, and he didn't want her to touch the beads.

Madam, after all, there is still a mother's family, an outsider.

If she also saw the magic of the beads and had two hearts, it would not be good.

Madame looked at Cao Ruo deeply.

The man's actions were unusual. Beads are certainly more than just a cure.

She'd have to be careful to figure it out. It's best to find a way to see what's so amazing about the beads.

……

Pinghe was imprisoned, and he was worried, wondering what happened to his mother at home.

He had no news all of a sudden, and his mother was afraid that she would be very anxious.

He can only hope that his friends will take care of it.

What Pinghe didn't know was that while he was in prison, several friends in Burning River City were also in a hurry.

First of all, Fan Guang, who would accompany Pinghe every day, found that Pinghe did not come to the city, went to his house to take a look, and learned from the Zou family that Pinghe was actually called away by the county guard of Tianyang County.

Fan Guang intuitively felt that it was not right.

He hurriedly contacted Mi Long and asked him to use the connections at hand to help inquire.

Mi Long quickly went to find someone.

A day later, the news came that Pinghe had entered the county guard of Tianyang County, and heard that he was only going to treat his illness, and he was warmly entertained.

Mi Long was relieved at this time.

Fan Guang still felt that something was wrong, and he told Mi Long to make people pay attention to the county guard's mansion.

Since then, however, the news of peace has been gone.

Even, the person who told them the news that they were okay before now said with a strange face, don't ask about peace anymore, if you ask, you will die, pull down, and bury.

A few friends were worried.

Most of the peace has already had an accident, and it is also related to the county guard of Tianyang County.

However, Mi Long, who has the most extensive relationship among them, is just a father who has no real power, and he can't fight against a party like the county guard.

If something happens to peace...... A few friends also had a problem in mind: his mother might have been killed.

After several people discussed, they decided to send Zou to a safe place as soon as possible.

In the end, it was Mi Long who made the decision, and he personally sent the Zou family to the royal capital to supervise Changcheng.

In the royal capital, it is always the safest.

Several friends came to Pinghe's house, explained the matter to Zou as much as possible, and then persuaded her to take refuge in Jianchang City.

They repeatedly persuaded the Zou clan that even if the county guards were in trouble, they would definitely try to save Pinghe.

Zou is also a well-informed person, hearing that his son is in critical condition now, and he is also in danger, he did not cry, obeyed Mi Long's arrangement, packed his luggage and followed.

When Fan Guang returned from Pinghe's house, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.

Suddenly, he remembered something.

Previously, General Qinglu, the lord of Burning River City, had come to find peace.

At that time, Qinglu praised peace and said that he would take care of him.

Why don't you go and ask Qinglu what to do?

After Fan Guang thought about it, he went to Qinglu's City Lord's Mansion and handed over the note.

Not long after, someone called Fan Guang in, and Qinglu saw him and asked him about the situation in detail.

"It's not easy." Qinglu's rough eyebrows were deeply deflated, "Cao Junshou is my top boss, if he hasn't taken people away, I, as a local governor, still have the ability to dissuade them, this person has already been taken away, if I interfere again, it will be a ...... of overstepping my authority."

He lowered his head and thought for a while, and Fan Guang was anxious on the side.

"In this case, I'll go back and write to my teacher in Wang Duli to see if the teacher can figure out a way."

Qinglu finally said.

He looked at Fan Guang and sighed: "Pinghe is a good doctor, I will try my best to save him, you go back and wait for news." ”

After Fan Guang left, Qinglu really repaired a book and sent someone to send it to the teacher quickly.

Qinglu's teacher's name is Xun Gao, who is a general of Changguo and an old minister who was highly valued by the previous king.

After receiving the letter, he was a little curious as to why his disciple wanted to save such a civilian.

However, since Qinglu said that this person is a famous doctor and an excellent person, then he will be saved.

Xun Gao sent people to Tianyang County.

On the other side of Tianyang County, Cao Ruo was sitting alone in the study playing with red beads.

An invisible light emanated from the red beads, making his body feel comfortable.

Cao Ruo moved his fat body and looked at the half-open cabinet door.

In the crack of the door, the golden color is revealed.

This is the gold he has spotted out in the past few days, he has cut it and tried it, and it is real gold.

This discovery made him overjoyed, and he looked at Hongzhu even more closely.

He now ignores his wife and daughter all day long, so he locks himself up and ponders the red beads.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"My lord, that Dr. Ruan is here again, saying that he is looking for you to ask for a reward."

Cao Ruo's eyes narrowed.

"Let people pull him down, beat him, and drive him away. The doctor's identity was also given to him. ”

Cao Ru sneered.

"This kind of person sells his colleagues and has a vicious mind. If I reward this kind of person, won't others say that I am a dignified county guard of Tianyang County? ”

"Yes!" Outside answered.

"By the way, if you see that he is unhappy when you beat him, then you will think about revenge in the future, in that case, you will go and put him in prison directly, so that he can calm down."

"Yes, sir!"

The servant left, and Cao Ruo spread back into his seat.

He turned the red bead slowly, and the light of the red bead shone endlessly, and it was very beautiful.

Not long after, there was another knock on the door.

"What? Don't bother me if it's okay! ”

Cao Ruo shouted unhappily.
