The night is silent, the clouds close and the moon closes.
A carriage quickly left the city and passed by on the deep forest path.
"Mom, will we be okay?"
"Yes, your father would never have thought that we would just leave the city and escape. By the time he reacts, we will have already arrived at a safe place."
"Then where are we going?"
"I don't know, the further away the better."
"Cha..."
There was a sound of a horse neighing, and then, the sky and the earth spun, and the entire carriage fell to the ground along with the fallen horse, and was smashed to pieces during the roll.
Screams echoed through the night, and when the carriage stopped, there was a sound inside.
"Mom, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, how about you?"
"My leg seems to be broken!"
Lin Zheng howled, and Qin Shuang had to use all his strength to drag Lin Zheng out of the carriage.
"what happened?"
The question suddenly froze when he saw a few black figures not far away, and Qin Shuang's expression changed instantly.
Those figures looked like yakshas seducing their lives in the night.
"It's Lin Yuan who sent you, right? How much money did he give you? I'll give you double, no, ten times. Please let us go!"
Qin Shuang said, tremblingly taking out all the banknotes in his arms.
But the other person was unmoved, and in the end he just sneered.
"I, the people of Marquis Xue Yang's Mansion, can you buy with just money?"
"Xue Yanghou Mansion?"
As soon as he heard these four words, Lin Zheng trembled with fright. Qin Shuang felt as if she had fallen into a cold pool, her face turned ashen.
If you are from Linyuan, you might still have a chance.
But in Xue Yanghou Mansion, they will definitely die!
Qin Shuang pushed Lin Zheng away with one hand, "Let's go!"
Lin Zheng was covering his broken leg at this moment, looking at Qin Shuang who was standing in front of him, his eyes suddenly became firm.
A roar, "Mom, my child is unfilial, please leave first!"
At this moment, Lin Zheng rushed over like an explosion, limping, but at the last moment, he was protecting his mother.
It was also the first time in this life that I protected my mother.
However, all efforts were in vain at this moment.
But in the blink of an eye, cold light flashed across the night, and with a muffled groan, the long sword penetrated Lin Zheng's body.
He didn't even have time to scream before he died.
"Zheng'er!"
Qin Shuang cried hysterically. Instead of running away, she ran towards Lin Zheng regardless of everything.
What greeted her was naturally the deadly cold light.
Under the muffled groan, blood filled the air, and the figures of the mother and son overlapped, disappearing in silence.
The leader sheathed his sword.
"I don't understand. There are just two useless people. Does the young marquis need so many of us to come?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a chuckle sounded from behind him.
"who?"
When they turned around, they saw a man walking out from behind the grass not far away.
Zhang Yue played with the branches in his hands leisurely, then raised his eyes and glanced at them, "Your young prince is not worried about them, he is worried about, maybe, me!"
He had a handsome smile and no murderous intent at all.
But the killers looked at each other and rushed forward one after another.
Swords intertwined, cold light crisscrossed.
In a moment, a few more people were lying on the ground.
Zhang Yue's sword lay across the leader's neck and he snorted backwards.
"Every time someone kills someone, I'll come and transport them back, but it's none of your business!"
Zhang Xia walked out coldly, and Zhang Yue also frowned, "Actually, I don't understand either. There are just a few losers. Can't you just come alone?"
"Rumble..."
Shure was filled with lightning and thunder.
The night spread, and Shi Qinghuan, who was far away in Qingfeng Garden, stood in the courtyard, watching the thunder and lightning with a deep expression.
Xianyu came out with a cloak and put it on Shi Qinghuan.
"Miss, the wind is blowing, come inside quickly!"
"At this moment, Qin Shuang and Lin Zheng should be under the spring!"
As soon as these words came out, there was silence everywhere.
Although his revenge was successful, his heart was still heavy.
Shi Qinghuan sighed softly, "How's the situation with my dear girl?"
"It's been arranged!"
"Well, a heavy rain is coming, let's go inside!"
The two of them turned around and entered the door. At this moment, the lights were bright in the other courtyard, and Jiao Niang was sitting in the hall, looking a little nervous.
Not far from her was her burly big brother.
There were many people standing outside the house, protecting her.
"Oh, I'm afraid it's going to rain today, my dear...eh? Who are you? What am I asking you? Why don't you answer?"
After some commotion outside, Lin Yuan walked into the hall angrily, and Jiao Niang also changed into a arrogant look.
Lin Yuan didn't notice it at all, "My dear, why are there so many strangers outside?"
"Oh, that was sent by the Marquis to protect me."
"What? What Marquis?"
"I am the Marquis of Xue Yanghou Mansion."
Lin Yuan looked confused and didn't react for a while.
"No, my dear, what do you mean? Lord Marquis, why do I need to protect you?"
Jiao Niang stood up proudly, deliberately caressed her belly, and looked at Lin Yuan with provocative eyes, "What do you think?"
With the cuckold in front of him, Lin Yuan naturally reacted.
"What did you say?"
"What? Don't Second Master understand it yet? Do you really think that I can like Second Master just like him? I might as well tell you that everything has been arranged by that person since I met you. From the day I stepped into this villa, I had it in my stomach."
"You bitch."
Lin Yuan was so angry that the moment he rushed forward, he was pushed back by Jiao Niang's eldest brother and fell to the ground.
"Someone, someone, come!"
"Don't bother. Everyone in your courtyard has been sent away. Now, everyone outside is my people."
"My dear girl, why do you do this to me? I want to give you my heart and soul..."
"You can't blame me for this. If you want to blame it, it's your general's house that has bad intentions and dares to blackmail the Hou's house into getting married. What kind of place is the Hou's house, and you dare to imagine it? This is your fate."
Lin Yuan then realized, "So, from the very beginning, it was the Hou Mansion's plan. They deliberately let Zheng'er get married, and then... you come to seduce me again and make me turn against Qin Shuang. Even the old Taoist ..."
"Of course I'm lying to you. I might as well tell you another secret. At this moment, your wife and Zheng'er have already gone to hell. As for you..."
Jiao Niang sneered, stood up, and walked directly out, but did not continue talking.
Such unknowns made Lin Yuan even more frightened.
"What did you say? Zheng'er and the others are already dead? What about me?"
Jiao Niang didn't answer, she just sneered and walked out of the courtyard.
Lin Yuan was left alone in the courtyard, fear gradually taking over his entire heart.
What will happen to me?
Will it kill me?
How to kill me?
He looked around, fearing that a killer would suddenly appear somewhere.
"boom..."
There was a sudden thunder, and Lin Yuan collapsed to the ground in fear.
His face was pale, and his eyes were filled with blood.
The fear in the human heart never ends.
There are also some things added to the soup that Jiao Niang makes for Lin Yuan every day.
As those things increase day by day, the load on people's hearts will increase infinitely, to the point where they can no longer control their thoughts, and they will fall into... madness.
When the thunder started again, Lin Yuan screamed, and then the figure rushed out.
The Meiyue Lantern Festival is not over yet, and even late at night, the market is still bustling with people.
And among the crowd, a crazy man suddenly rushed into the crowd. In full view of everyone, he held a torch and ran straight to the door of Xue Yanghou's mansion.
"Well, Mr. Xue Yang, you killed my wife and children and ruined my family. I will die with you."
The rising figure rushed into the palace gate, but was shot away by the guards.
But Lin Yuan didn't care about the pain and rushed forward again and again.
After being knocked down several times, Lin Yuan stood up tremblingly, pointed at the door of the house and cursed.
"The Marquis of Xue Yang killed my wife and children and took my life. Even if I were a ghost... I wouldn't... poof..."
Blood spurted out, and the figure fell to the ground.
The guard stepped forward and took a breath...
"died!"
The crowd was shocked, but this was the final effect of the drug.
Under the thunder, heavy rain comes.
Lin Yuan's figure fell into the heavy rain, and the blood was washed away.
His widened eyes reflected the light of a fallen torch in the distance, which gradually went out with the rain.
