"You've been castrated? You're not joking with me, are you?" The male servant couldn't believe it. Third Young Master was such a famous playboy. How could he have lived without those words?
"I don't want to joke with you. If you don't believe me, I'll beat you," the home slave said, a little distracted. If it weren't for the fact that this male servant had a good relationship with him, he wouldn't have bothered to deal with this guy.
"Yes, of course I do. Who did it? Did you catch him?" the servant continued to ask curiously.
"I heard it was done by a female servant. If they were caught, why would they interrogate you? Don't ask any more questions. Be careful that your tongues will be cut out." The servant did not want to say more. Hearing what the servant said, the servant quickly closed his mouth and stopped questioning. If it was true, he would be pulled out to cut his tongue if he kept asking.
"Sister Xiaocao, Sister Xiaocao castrated Third Young Master. There must be a reason for Sister Xiaocao. It must be Third Young Master's fault. It must be that he wanted to humiliate Sister Xiaocao. It must be like this." Long Yifeng wanted to find Lin Qingshan's whereabouts. He was worried about her safety and believed that there was a reason for Lin Qingshan's actions. While the others were not paying attention, Long Yifeng rushed out of the Li family manor like a gust of wind. He wanted to find Lin Qingshan before others and protect her.
"Ma... master, please... please forgive me. This... this matter has nothing to do with me. I didn't do anything. It was Third Young Master who asked me to take that maid to him." The director knelt in the hall with snot and tears on his face and begged Li Zhentian, who was sitting in the main seat.
Li Zhentian, the eighth generation Master of the Li family, was 47,years old and 178,meters tall. He was sturdy and had two strands of long hair on the temples. His trimmed beard was more dignified and calm, and his eyes looked a little gloomy. He wore a golden-black gown and had an imposing manner.
At this moment, Li Zhentian was looking at the cousin who was kneeling in front of him and begging for mercy. He was going to find out the truth and who had broken his son's roots. He was going to tear that person to pieces.
"What's her name? Tell me all her identity and background." Li Zhentian's tone was cold, and it went straight to the bottom of the Hall Chief's heart. His body kept trembling, and his urine and feces began to go out of control.
"Her... her name is Xiaocao. She was bought... from the market. I don't... know anything else about the letters. My lord, please spare my life. It really has nothing to do with me... " The chief was on the verge of breaking down. Everything was fine yesterday, but this morning, someone dragged him out from the nest of a beauty and interrogated him personally. When he learned that Third Young Master Li Yunyu had been castrated, the chief's heart was already as cold as a ghost. He knew that he had to be implicated. No matter what happened to the murderer, he would not be able to live in peace. However, he still wanted to live on.
###Chapter12, Reward
"Take him down, feed the dogs." Li Zhentian said in a low voice to the servants next to him. Hearing these words, the supervisor couldn't hold it in any longer. He was completely devastated, but he was still dragged down by the servant. The miserable sound accompanied him all the way. When the supervisor was taken down, a thin and weak scholar-like man in his thirties came in. This man was the general manager of the Li family, and he was completely beyond the supervisor's reach. The man's surname was Li, and his name was Yu.
Li Yu said to Li Zhentian nervously, "Master, the whole mansion has been searched, and there is no trace of that girl."
"Then continue to look for her until you find her." Li Zhentian said coldly to Li Yu. His own son had his child's roots cut off, and he was at home. He really couldn't accept this fact.
"Master, I think that girl may have already escaped from the house, and she is no longer in Sanqingguan. If we only rely on these servants in the house, it is very difficult to find her." Compared to Li Zhentian, Li Yu was much more rational.
"Evidence?" Li Zhentian stared at Li Yu and spat out two words. Hearing Li Zhentian's words, Li Yu quickly replied, "The gatekeeper Old Master told me that there was a female servant who took Third Young Master's seal and said she wanted to buy things for him last night, but until now no one has come back. Presumably, that female servant is Xiaocao."
"Bring Old Sun's head to me. I want to ask him personally." Holding the handrail tightly, Li Zhentian's blue veins were exposed and he was breathing heavily. He felt that it was useless to raise a group of good-for-nothings. Li Yu didn't dare to neglect and immediately turned and walked towards the door. However, he was stopped by Li Zhentian after just a few steps.
"Give me a moment. Send out a reward immediately. Bring back the head of the girl and reward 1000,gold coins. Bring the girl to me alive and give me 5,000,gold coins." In order to save the face of the Li family, Li Zhentian was willing to risk everything. This matter was not only related to his son Li Yunyu's future, but also the future of the Li family.
"Yes." Li Yu stopped in his tracks, turned around, and replied respectfully. Then, he quickly left, not daring to slight him in the slightest.
Thousand Gold Coins was not a small sum. It was the salary of over ten years for the commoners of the town. Even if they were mercenaries or bandits who often lived around the town, they wouldn't be able to resist this sum of money.
As soon as the bounty was released, the whole of San Hai Town was suddenly filled with an undercurrent of emotion. All the forces started to search for Lin Qingshan. The mercenaries, bandits, thieves, killers, beggars, soldiers, and the people of all walks of life had almost memorized Lin Qingshan's appearance in their minds. Most of the people remembered that Lin Qingshan wanted to catch her in exchange for money, but many people still took her appearance as an idol.
Li Yunyu, the third son of the Li family, had defiled countless good women in Three Seas Town and the surrounding areas. Many people had long hated him, but they did not have the courage or had the chance to kill Li Yunyu for Heaven's sake. What Lin Qingshan had done made those who had been persecuted by Li Yunyu admire her. The women even took Lin Qingshan as their example.
...
One day's time passed quickly, and there was no sign of Lin Qingshan in Three Seas Town. The people who searched for her around Threestation Town also didn't find her. Lin Qingshan disappeared as if she had evaporated from the world. Long Yifeng had been looking for her since he left the Li family. He went to every place where Lin Qingshan might go, but there was no trace of Lin Qingshan. Gradually, Long Yifeng approached the periphery of Dragon Valley. In order to find Lin Qingshan, Long Yifeng did not hesitate to take risks.
Year 121,of the Sun and Moon calendar, May 3rd
On the outskirts of Dragon Valley, there was a woman who was full of heroic spirit and was less than twenty years old. Her eyes were sharp and she was dressed in black. Her chest was flat and she had a short hair. She held a slightly rusty long sword and walked in the dark forest. She was an assassin, an unorganized killer. She came to capture Lin Qingshan alive for the 5000,gold coin reward. Although she also admired Lin Qingshan's courage, she still wanted to catch her and exchange her for the reward.
"With my sixth sense as a killer, I think she must be here. She must be hiding somewhere here," the female killer said confidently to herself. Although she rushed here to find Lin Qingshan after seeing the reward yesterday, and she still had no harvest, she was still very confident in herself.
"Five thousand gold. As long as I capture her alive, five thousand gold would be mine. When that time comes, I'll retire and enjoy myself. I want to buy a big house and marry a handsome husband. I want to be angry with that cheap man. How dare he look down on me. Hmph." Before everything was settled, the female killer had already begun to fantasize about the future.
"Pa..." The sound of a broken branch woke up the female killer. She nervously held the rusty sword in her hand and slowly walked toward the sound. In her eyes, there was a pile of gold coins waiting for her to pick up. She was so excited that she trembled and her eyes were shining.
###Chapter13,Tong Sai Man and Red-Haired Wild Boar
"Come out quickly. I know that you are hiding there. You can't escape. In my hands, there has never been a prey that can escape. Be smart and come out. Otherwise, I will be rude to you." The female killer waved the long sword in her hand and threatened in a trembling voice. It was unknown whether it was caused by excitement or fear.
"I have tens of numbers. If you still don't come out, I won't be polite to you." The Tong Saiman had come to a place not far from where the sound was still. He pointed his long sword at the bush and set the deadline.
"Ten... One. I'm giving you face, but you don't deserve it. Look, ah..." As soon as the voice fell, the Tong Sai man slashed the grass in front of him indiscriminately. He was simply cutting firewood. He shouted while cutting. Just now, he wanted to catch Lin Qingshan alive, but now he wanted to chop her into meat paste. This killer was a little bit stupid. He might have just joined the team.
"Don't blame me. Who told you not to come out? I don't want to kill you either. If you want to find someone, go find the Li family for revenge. It's them who offered a bounty to catch you. It has nothing to do with me." Blood appeared on the sword, and the Tong Sai man was frightened. He immediately threw away the sword in his hand and put his palms together.
Suddenly, a red-haired wild boar, about one meter tall and 200,kilograms heavy, came out from behind the bushes. Its blood-red eyes were fixed on the dog, only to see a long wound on its bottom, and blood was flowing out.
"A red-haired boar..." The red-haired barbarian was shocked. She did not expect to meet a red-haired boar here, a magic beast of the upper rank as an intern. Although she called herself a killer, her real strength was merely that of a middle-level trainee. She had not even reached the normal level of the Arthur Continent. Although she was only one level higher than a red-haired boar, her strength was five times greater. Although it was not the difference between heaven and earth, she could not defeat this red-haired boar.
"I didn't do it on purpose. I didn't mean to hurt you. Don't be angry. I apologize to you. You'd better leave now. It's getting dark. Your mother should miss you." The words of Tong Saiman were somewhat incoherent and had no effect. The gasp of the red-haired wild boar was getting stronger and stronger.
