Chapter 132 1
Niu Dan followed Luo Xiaoran's gaze and through the woods and grass, he had a clear view of the situation in his home.
There was a crowd of people standing in front of his house. Her mother was being held tightly by two people and was kneeling on the ground.
Upon seeing this, Niu Dan immediately wanted to rush out to find his mother, but Luo Xiaoran hugged him tightly and covered his mouth.
Fifty or sixty people were clearly reflected in Luo Xiaoran's pupils. The dozen or so people in the lead were the Lin family guards who had fought with her yesterday, and the ones behind them were actually the soldiers guarding the city of Changzhou!
If the Lin family borrowed soldiers to defend the city, they would have to explain to Zhu Jingxing, the prefect of Changzhou, how Lin Qianqian was murdered, including the place where she was killed.
Then Zhu Jingxing, who knew Luo Xiaoran's entire action plan, should know that Luo Xiaoran did not act at the designated location, but was forced to take action on the Zhushan Trail. She was also chased by the Lin family to the halfway point of the Zhushan Mountain and finally jumped off the cliff.
Zhu Jingxing, did you lend the forty or fifty people to the Lin family to search for Luo Xiaoran's body?
No, that's not right! Luo Xiaoran shook her head.
When she was making the assassination plan, she borrowed the map from Zhu Jingxing. As the highest official of a state, wouldn't Zhu Jingxing know that there is a high probability that people will not die if they jump from the halfway point of Zhushan Mountain?
Then the fact that he entrusted so many people to the Lin family must have a very sinister intention!
Thinking of this, Luo Xiaoran exuded a silent, low aura, but her eyes were fixed on the situation below.
Together with Wang Cuihua, who was kneeling on the ground, was a white-haired old man.
When asked by the head of the Lin family, he pointed at Wang Cuihua and said something. The head of the Lin family asked Wang Cuihua a few questions, and Wang Cuihua nodded honestly. Everything was normal.
It was not until the head of the Lin family asked a question that Wang Cuihua pointed in the direction of the village.
Seeing this, Luo Xiaoran's pupils suddenly contracted.
The next second, the man who was the leader of the Lin family slapped Wang Cuihua hard in the face, knocking her to the ground and unable to get up for a long time.
When Niu Dan saw this scene, he struggled desperately in Luo Xiaoran's hands and wanted to rush out to find his mother, but he couldn't get rid of Luo Xiaoran.
The head of the Lin family grabbed Wang Cuihua by the collar and seemed to ask her another question. Wang Cuihua stretched out a trembling hand and pointed in the direction of the village again.
This action seemed to anger the head of the Lin family, and he kicked Wang Cuihua in the stomach and kicked her far away.
The Niu Dan in his hand struggled even harder, and something fell on Luo Xiaoran's hand that was covering Niu Dan's mouth. One drop, two drops, three drops...
Those were Niu Dan's tears, but Luo Xiaoran's tears were welling up in her eyes, but she held them back tightly, afraid that the tears would blur her eyes.
The man headed by the Lin family seemed to have lost his patience. He drew out his sword, pointed the tip of the sword at Wang Cuihua, and roared something.
Wang Cuihua wiped the blood from her mouth with her hand, then stretched out her bloody hand and pointed in the direction of the village for the third time.
Before the hand covered in blood and dirt could be put down, the sword with endless anger pierced Wang Cuihua's neck, and blood gushed out.
The man headed by the Lin family personally set fire to Wang Cuihua's thatched hut. This dilapidated house was the home that Wang Cuihua and her son had finally managed to own after experiencing a brutal escape from famine.
Wang Cuihua's body was also thrown into the house full of flames. Luo Xiaoran's tears finally flowed down the corners of her eyes.
Luo Xiaoran's blood was boiling and there was a bloody taste in her throat, but she swallowed it down forcefully.
She stared at the fire with her head down, and whispered the calmest words into Niu Dan's ear. Her voice was so light that it seemed to be blown away by the wind:
"I'll let go of your hand. Don't scream or run around. Only by following me can you survive. Only by staying alive can you avenge your mother."
After pausing for three seconds and making sure that Niu Dan understood what she meant, Luo Xiaoran let go of her hand.
Although Niu Dan did not shout, his eyes were fixed on the house filled with blood, and he was unwilling to leave.
Luo Xiaoran turned his head around, made him look at her, and then said word by word:
"You have seen how vicious those people are. They killed and burned people in broad daylight. If they find us, they will definitely show no mercy."
At this point, Luo Xiaoran choked up a little, but still tried to keep her voice down: "So don't make a sound, just follow me!"
After saying that, Luo Xiaoran grabbed Niu Dan's hand and ran into the mountains at full speed.
“Your mother must have been trying to protect me just now. She simply thought that as long as she could lead people to the village, she could help me delay time and I would be safe.
But that group of people were not ordinary people. They must have searched the village, so they knew that your mother was lying.
They will catch up soon. We don't have much time left. Remember, only if we stay alive can we live up to your mother's kindness."
After hearing what Luo Xiaoran said, Niu Dan behind her no longer followed her.
Luo Xiaoran turned her head and looked at Niu Dan quietly, waiting for him to speak.
Niu Dan looked at Luo Xiaoran in fear and confusion, then opened his mouth and asked the question he had always wanted to ask, his voice so innocent: "Sister, won't you be beheaded for murder and arson?"
"Yes!" Luo Xiaoran tried hard to force a smile, hoping that her affirmative answer could comfort Niu Dan.
But Niudan, don’t you see that there are government officials among them?
This group of people saw the Lin family's servants committing murder and arson, but no one dared to step forward to stop them, as if they hadn't seen anything.
Zhu Jingxing, your subordinates are really the same as you!
You are afraid of the Lin family, and your subordinates don't dare to shout in front of the Lin family's servants. This really makes me realize how the Lin family is an awe-inspiring existence!
In broad daylight, even a small servant in their family dared to ignore the state laws and kill people and destroy bodies at will. No wonder you didn't dare to kill Lin Qianqian.
Luo Xiaoran closed her eyes, exhaled deeply, and said meaningfully:
"Niu Dan, you are right. Killing someone means paying for his life. This is only natural. Killing innocent people indiscriminately will always be punished."
Lin!
Luo Xiaoran clenched her fists. Her usually short nails pierced into her palms, but she didn't feel anything at all.
When Niu Dan heard Luo Xiaoran's words, his eyes lit up almost inaudibly, as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw: "Then let's go to the police and let the soldiers arrest them to avenge my mother!"
"Okay, before we avenge your mother, we must first ensure that we are not caught by them and save our own lives, understand?"
Luo Xiaoran squatted down, held Niu Dan's shoulders with both hands, and said solemnly: "Sister knows that your foot is injured now, but we must run desperately and cannot stop."
Niu Dan nodded heavily and stretched out his little hand, and Luo Xiaoran held it tightly.
