When the remaining two saw one brother dead and the other injured, instead of showing any fear, they were stimulated to become ferocious. They drew their swords and slashed at Murong Fu.

Murong Fu didn't even bother to say nonsense to such a vicious person. The extremely fast sword light flashed past, and the two men's heads were thrown high and rolled down on the ground like watermelons.

As the two headless corpses fell down, the remaining dwarf could not escape his fate. His throat was sealed with his sword and he fell to the ground in despair.

Seeing such a young girl in Shura Field, she immediately rolled her eyes and fainted from fright.

Murong Fu hurriedly supported her, placed his palm on the Lingtai point on her back, and slowly input his internal energy. After a moment, the girl slowly woke up.

"Sorry, I scared you!"

He had struck too hard just now, almost forgetting that there was a little girl present, and said with guilt in his tone.

The girl stood up slowly, glanced at Murong Fu, and then at the middle-aged man's body on the ground. She walked over, took out a few taels of broken silver from his arms and put it into her arms. From beginning to end, there was no leakage. A tear.

Murong Fu was stunned for a moment, wondering secretly.

"People from the government will be here to deal with it soon. You should leave immediately!"

After thinking about it, Murong Fu took out some broken silver from his arms and handed it to her.

It's not that he doesn't want to give more, but if such a little girl has too much money hidden in her body, it will actually harm her.

The girl took the silver and looked at it, then suddenly took out a few more coins that she had just hidden in her arms, held them in her hand and handed them to Murong Fu, her chapped lips slightly opened, and she spat out two words: "Buy me."

"Um?"

Seeing her pitiful look, Murong Fu couldn't help but sigh: "This money is not bought from you, but given to you. You can take it and find another place to make a living!"

The girl lowered her head when she heard this, pointed to the middle-aged man's body in a low tone, and said, "Sell me and bury him!"

"Uh... do you want to follow me?"

Murong Fu suddenly understood what she meant and asked.

The girl nodded repeatedly, with a bit of expectation in her big black and bright eyes.

Murong Fu pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Then follow me from now on. I hope you won't regret it!"

"No regrets!"

The girl said firmly.

Murong Fu shook his head, carrying the middle-aged man's body in one hand and the skinny girl in the other, and left the tavern.

When he came to the coffin shop, Murong Fu spent some money to handle all the matters behind the middle-aged man's death.

When he asked the middle-aged man his name, the girl only said her father's surname was Li, but refused to mention his given name.

Reluctantly, Murong Fu had someone put on the tombstone the words "Let's examine the tomb of Mr. Li first", keeping everything simple.

After the girl knelt down three times before her late father's tomb, she stood up and silently walked to Murong Fu's side.

"May I have your name?"

Murong Fu didn't know whether it was the girl who was tough-hearted or cold-blooded. She never shed a tear for the middle-aged man from beginning to end, so he couldn't help but ask.

"Back to you, sir, I don't have a name..."

The girl's voice was slightly hoarse.

"Why doesn't it have a name?"

Murong Fu frowned.

"My father said he wanted to buy me into a brothel in Tokyo. My old name is useless..."

The girl lowered her head and answered.

Murong Fu finally understood why she was not sad anymore. He touched her head with some distress and asked again: "Then what was your previous name?"

The girl was silent for a moment and said, "When my mother was alive, she always called me by my nickname, 'Master'."

Murong Fu asked in confusion: "What two words are these?"

"My mother has always believed in Buddhism. According to local customs, all Buddhist disciples are commonly known as 'Master', so she called me 'Master'."

After hearing her explanation, Murong Fu realized that even she herself didn't know how to write these two words.

"My father's surname is Li, also known as the Summoner. He was then taken to Tokyo and sold to a brothel. There can't be such a coincidence in this world, right?"

Could it be that the girl in front of me is the one who will be known as one of the four famous prostitutes in the future?

Murong Fu couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, but thinking of the two Master Lis in history, he couldn't guess whether the other party was right or wrong.

But since he agreed to take her in, he naturally wouldn't change because of the girl's identity.

"In that case, please call me Master Li! This name is quite good, and there is no need to change it!"

Murong Fu thought for a while and said.

Master Li was so grateful that he knelt down and bowed to him.

Murong Fu stopped her and said, "My Murong family doesn't have so many rules. Just follow me from now on."

"By the way, my surname is Murong, and my name is a compound character. I am from Taihu, Suzhou. From now on, this will be your home!"

Master Li said: "Yes, Young Master!"

Murong Fu saw that her hair was dry, her complexion was sallow, and her clothes were in tatters. He took her to an inn, tidied her up again, and then started on his way again.

Even after changing into new clothes and washing off the dust, the girl still looked like an ugly duckling, without much change. This made Murong Fu wonder if he had guessed wrong.

However, his family has a great business, so he doesn't want to miss this one person to feed him, so he just treats it as a good deed.

After traveling with Master Li for several days, Murong Fu returned to Yanziwu in Taihu Lake.

Seeing that the young master brought back a sallow and thin little girl, A'Zhu Abi was curious, but did not laugh at her because of her appearance. Instead, she affectionately took Master Li to familiarize herself with the village's environment.

Murong Fu came to the forest garden at the back of the mountain to feed the sacred eagle.

"You little guy, why don't you grow bigger just because you eat?"

Murong Fu looked at the divine eagle in front of him that was as high as his chest, and wanted to let it learn to fly, but the little guy flapped its wings a few times, but it could barely jump higher than him.

Could this be the legend that although I am only 1.6 meters tall, I can jump up to 1.8 meters tall?

After reluctantly feeding him a few pieces of raw meat, Murong Fu went back.

In the evening, after having dinner with A'Zhu, A Bi and Li Shishi, Murong Fu returned to his room to practice his internal skills.

Now the plans of the Murong family are progressing steadily. Whether it is to win over local officials, expand the power of the Murong family, or to collect money and grain, and to accumulate foundation, he has arranged for Gong Yeqian, Bao Bubu and others to take charge of it.

As for himself, he only needs to practice martial arts diligently and make adequate preparations for future plot developments.

In the blink of an eye, half a month later, Murong Fu invited a teacher to teach the three girls how to read and digit. Thinking that Abi and Master Li both had musical talents, he generously invited Qin Dian, one of the eight friends of Hangu, to teach Er. female.

If he were an ordinary person, Kang Guangling would naturally not bother to pay attention to them. Fortunately, the two women were very talented, so he made an exception and stayed.

In addition, Murong Fu also invited Kang Guangling's junior chess master Fan Bailing to teach him chess skills.
