Chapter 410: The City Lord of Rucheng
A serious hooligan? Chu Nian raised his eyebrows, and the person had already hurriedly walked into the house, and a smile seemed to loom on his seemingly cold face.
Because of Ushra's trouble, the customers in the tavern ran away, and the shopkeeper did not dare to open the door again, and the night was stable. Chu Nian took advantage of this stability to find the shopkeeper to talk, it turned out that the shopkeeper in Xichu was originally accused of marrying a beautiful woman, but this woman disliked the ugliness of the shopkeeper, and spent the night with the shopkeeper on the wedding night, even if she was pregnant and gave birth to Xia Zi, and then she really disliked the ugly and short shopkeeper, so she married a young and handsome Langjun as a concubine, the concubine was not easy to offend, the father and daughter had no place in the house for a while, and the shopkeeper had to take his only daughter to the barbarians, Trying to find a place for the barbarians to stay, this stay is five years.
And the city lord of Rucheng is a person who protects his shortcomings, he is powerful in the city, rampant for most of his life, and only got a daughter in middle age, that is, he loves Youjia, and spoils that Ushla, and it is estimated that if Ushla comes back with the city lord of Rucheng tomorrow, the trouble will be indispensable.
At noon on the second day, the closed door of the tavern was knocked open, and Chu Nian and the others were sitting in the backyard drinking tea with the snacks made by Xia Zi himself, when they heard a commotion at the door, and a heavy knock came from outside the door.
"Open the door! Tell those two cool people who bullied my daughter to get out! ”
The voice was thick, and there was no need to deliberately amplify the volume, and it easily floated from the main hall into Chu Nian and Ming Xiu's ears. Xia Zi, who was originally helping Chu Nian and the two of them to serve tea and water on the side, suddenly turned pale, and saw the shopkeeper hurrying out of the inside, looking at Chu Nian and Ming Xiu worriedly: "Why don't you two go inside and hide, there is me here." ”
Chu Nian smiled and shook his head, "This disaster is caused by ourselves, how can we ask one of the shopkeepers to bear it." ”
When these words fell, they saw the two of them get up and walk towards the door, and the father and daughter who stayed in place looked at each other worriedly, and hurriedly followed.
A group of big men outside the door are standing at the door menacingly, knocking on the door is a rough man, this man is seven feet tall, strong, cruel, not angry between the eyebrows, at this moment is glaring at the closed door in front of him, seeing that the door can not be knocked open, he looked back at the group of angry men who followed behind him, "Come on, smash this broken door for me!" ”
"Yes!"
Just as the big men were about to break into the door, the door suddenly opened by itself, and behind the door stood a woman with a beautiful face, she was wearing a cool dress, and her eyes were slightly bent, but there was a chill to the bone.
Chu Nian smiled lightly, and while her eyes swept over the dozens of strong men outside the door, she raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw Ushra with his toes high in front of the strong man, and finally fell on the seven-foot strong man standing in front.
"Lord of the city?" Chu Nian smiled like a spring breeze, so that people couldn't find fault with it.
The city lord turned his eyes and glanced at Ushra suspiciously, and saw that Ushra seemed to be aggrieved and said, "Father, it's this woman, and there's a man!" Yesterday I came to help my subordinates fight the grievances, and they verbally insulted me! ”
Seeing that his daughter was wronged, the city lord was immediately furious, he clenched his fists and turned his eyes to look at Chu Nian, "You get out of the way, I don't know like a woman, call your accomplices out!" ”
Chu Nian raised her eyebrows slightly, she looked past the city lord's sturdy figure and looked at Ushla behind the city lord, "Wu Niangzi really knows how to tell jokes, when will I insult Yu Niangzi?" ”
Ushla glared at Chu Nian, and there was no trace of fear in her eyes, "It's you, you bullied me yesterday with words, and you used force to scare people!" Father, don't talk nonsense with her! Arrest her, and the man will naturally come out! ”
When these words fell, he saw the city lord turn his eyes to look at Chu Nian, "You still don't get out of the way?" My subordinates don't know what it means to be merciful! ”
Seeing his master speak, a group of strong men who were already eyeing Chu Nian at the door suddenly stepped forward, and someone grabbed the seemingly innocent and harmless woman in front of him with a big palm.
Looking at the big palm that almost touched his wrist, Chu Nian frowned uncheckably, and held the big palm that dared to move her with his bare hand, and with a strong hand, the big man suddenly wailed.
Seeing this, the city lord suddenly said angrily: "Okay, you little lady still dare to do it!" Come! Give it to me, catch this woman for me and throw her into the tiger cage! ”
Chu Nian frowned slightly, a group of big men had already surrounded her, she dodged a punch, and then patted lightly with her bare hand, the strong man who waved his fist at her suddenly felt a pain in his wrist and fell to the ground, and Ushra on the side saw this situation, and immediately gritted his teeth, "Father, go out in person!" They are no match for this woman! ”
Hearing this, the city lord suddenly seemed to be encouraged, he pushed away a strong man who was pushed out by Chu Nian's palm, took a few steps forward, and clenched his fists, "Little girl, I think you really don't know how thick the sky is!" ”
Chu Nian raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at the city lord who waved off his subordinates and went out in person, but at this time, he breathed a sigh of relief, raised his eyes, raised his hands and said, "I surrender, the city lord should arrest me." ”
It seemed that Chu Nian would say this, and the city lord and his party present were all stunned, and then they saw Ushra being the first to react and said: "Father, don't believe her, this woman is very powerful, she must have a back hand behind her!" ”
The city lord froze and looked Chu Nian up and down, at this moment Chu Nian was looking innocent, as if she had almost injured all the people in the City Lord's Mansion who were not her.
Seeing that the city lord had not moved, Ushra immediately flattened his mouth and pretended to cry: "Father! Don't you love me! Are you willing to let me be bullied by this woman! ”
Since she was a child, as long as she cries, her father will definitely compromise, but Ushra is confident that this time will be no exception.
Sure enough, Ushera's cry seemed to stimulate the city lord's nerves, he turned his head and glanced at Ushra a little helplessly, and immediately stepped forward, grabbed Chu Nian's wrist held high above his head, and twisted Chu Nian's hands behind him.
"Okay, little girl, you know the times," he said, he turned his head and looked at Ushra who was still pretending to cry, "Baby girl, don't cry, Daddy has already caught this girl, and when you go home, this girl will be at your disposal, how about it?" ”
Hearing this, Ushra gradually stopped her tears, and raised her eyes, looking at Chu Nian's eyes with a faint sense of pride.
She snorted coldly and said, "Okay, I forgive Daddy!" ”
A strong man on the side took Chu Nian from the city lord's hand, Chu Nian raised his eyebrows slightly, and was pushed towards the door, when she walked to the door, she looked back, and glanced at the darkness behind her, in the darkness, it seemed that a pair of narrow eyes were squinting slightly in displeasure.
……
Chu Nian was taken to the City Lord's Mansion, and at the request of Ushera, she was locked in the underground water prison, she waited all day, and in the evening, Ushra walked into the water prison with a high spirit.
The water prison in the City Lord's Mansion is not small, and when he came in, Chu Nian roughly counted it, this water prison can hold at least forty or fifty prisoners, and the water prison is still damp, and there is a smell of corruption in the air.
When Ushra walked in from the outside, the wide open cell door shot in a burst of light from the outside, Chu Nian narrowed his eyes slightly, and saw that the cell door was opened, and Ushra twisted his body and walked into the cell door with a proud face.
"How's it going, a whole day in the water dungeon?"
Chu Nian raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Ushra who was looking at him condescendingly in front of him, and said with a smile: "Thanks to Miss Wu's blessing, this water prison is quite comfortable." ”
Ushra snorted coldly, "Why didn't you see the man who was with you?" ”
At this point, Chu Niancai finally understood the reason why Ushra hadn't done anything to her for so long, it turned out that she was waiting for Ming Xiu, she smiled lightly, and said, "I told him to run away with the father and daughter from the tavern first." ”
As she spoke, she sighed helplessly, "It's a pity that even if Miss Wu arrests me today, she won't be able to see him." ”
It seemed that because he had been poked in the heart, Ushla's face suddenly turned red, and he looked at Chu Nian in shame and said, "You still dare to ridicule me when you die?" ”
Chu Nian smiled slightly, "I don't dare." ”
Seeing that Chu Nian softened so quickly, Ushera's self-esteem seemed to be greatly satisfied, so he snorted coldly, the corners of his arrogant mouth rose slightly, and said, "You are interested!" Say, where is the man running away now? ”
Chu Nian pursed his red lips, looked at Ushra with innocent eyes and said, "I don't know either." ”
"You ......" Ushra was followed by a servant girl, this servant girl looked at it very clearly, this stall, is looking at Chu Nian with a slight flash, a moment later, she whispered something in Ushera's ear, and then saw Ushra turn her eyes, looking at Chu Nian meaningfully, "Well, you have a point, the companion is here, the man can't run there, sooner or later he will come back to save you, I just have to wait here." ”
Chu Nian raised his eyes and glanced meaningfully at the servant girl beside Ushera, and the three-point chill written in his eyes made the maid tremble suddenly, this stall, just don't turn her face, don't dare to look at Chu Nian again.
I saw Chu Nian looking at Ushera, still with that harmless smiling face, "Miss Wu said that I laughed, my friend I naturally understand, he will not come back, it is better for Miss Wu to beat me up here today, and let me out earlier." ”
Ushra snorted coldly, "You woman has always been cunning, so I won't listen to you!" If he really doesn't come to save you, you'll just be locked up here for the rest of your life! Hum! Let's go! ”
With that, Ushra turned to leave, and the maid followed behind, feeling Chu Nian's scrutinizing gaze, she carefully closed the door of the cell again, but she didn't dare to come out.
……
It wasn't until night that Chu Nian got up, moved his somewhat stiff body, and his eyes fell on the iron lock on the wooden door.
This iron lock is not a difficult lock to open, probably because the city lord of Wu is very confident in the security of his house? Chu Nian stood in place and thought for a while, then raised his eyebrows slightly, and then waved his hand, and a hand knife slashed on the iron lock, and he heard a "click" from that side, and the iron lock fell to the ground in response.
