Take the whole family through the library

Chapter 351 Xilan City

Lin Qiaoqiao was slightly taken aback, and asked: "Get up, Mr. Lu mentioned earlier that your Lu family runs a medicine store in Xilan City. Although I have never worked in this industry, I still know what a medicine store is. Make money. How can you be so down?"

Ever since the Lu family fell into disaster, Lu Anjiang has never heard anyone address him as Mr. or Mr. Lu.Lu Anjiang's eyes flickered a few times, as if he missed this title a little bit.The father and son of the Lu family sat back on their chairs, and Lu Anjiang narrated: "Because of the war, many merchants in the city closed their shops, and our Lu family is no exception. It took several generations of hard work to open this small medicine shop. Therefore, our Lu family lives in the backyard of the shop, and it is convenient to look at the shop. We have not invited outsiders, everything is done by me and my eldest brother , and my father, the three of us carried it. My sister-in-law, the wife of the villain, and a few children helped in the shop. My elder brother and I often went out to buy medicinal materials, and my father went to nearby villages to collect medicinal materials , the farthest is Lujia Village.

Originally, our family lived happily. The war only affected the business of our Lu family, but it is good news for the whole family to be together.That night, a group of people came and slammed on the shop door.A special room was reserved in the shop, and my father lived in it.If there is something to do, he just raises his voice, and the two of us brothers can rush up to help immediately.I heard my father's screams, and when I arrived, my father was already dying.The elder brother had a violent temper, he went up and ran into the group of people, and was killed on the spot. "Lu Anjiang wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, sucked his nose a few times, and adjusted his mood.

Lin Qiaoqiao sighed, "Oh!"

"Could it be that the person here is a member of the magic sect of the Jianghu of Chu?" Baihe asked.

Lu Yunshan cried with red eyes, shook his head, and cried: "No. We recognize those people. They all wear uniform masks on their faces, a bit like little ghosts. But it's not them, they are from our Xilan City. People. A few years ago, they wanted to sell us a batch of fake medicinal materials, but we refused to accept them, so we offended them. Originally, our family was not afraid of these hooligans, but since the war, people from the Demon Gate have taken over us After Xilan City. This group of people did not know how to curry favor with the people of the Demon Sect. They ran amok in Xilan City and had no law. That night, they deliberately came to take revenge on our family. My uncle’s family, young and old, were given by them. Killed, my brother and sister were killed by them, because I was not in the shop that day, so I escaped. My mother was taken away by those people, and now she is locked in Cuixiang Building. They said that as long as we take out 1000 taels If the money comes, we can take my mother away. Our shop was burned down by them that night."

After the Lu family father and son survived by luck, they began to beg for help everywhere and hit a wall everywhere.In the end, he could only return to Lujia Village, at least there was still a roof to shelter from the wind and rain.Now that the agreed day is approaching, the Lu family father and son are on the road ahead of schedule, eating and sleeping along the way.Eat wild fruits and preserved fruits when you are hungry, and drink some dew to quench your thirst when you are thirsty.

After hearing this, Lin Qiaoqiao sighed, "Oh!"

"As long as you take out the money to redeem someone within the stipulated days, my mother should be fine." Lu Yunshan said, wiping away tears.

"That kind of place is the most unkept promise, alas." Lily said.

"I'm afraid that the money was given, but no one brought it out. These people can sell fake medicinal materials against their conscience, so don't expect them to keep their promises. Seeing that you can easily take out 1000 taels, they will definitely intensify and continue to blackmail. "Lin Qiaoqiao said.

It's not that Lu Anjiang hasn't thought about this, but as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he must try it.Lin Qiaoqiao said again: "Are you sure they are just local hooligans from Xilan City, not from the Demon Sect?"

"The villain is sure." Lu Anjiang said.

"Then this matter will be settled easily. You ask them to bring people out and exchange them outside the city. Tell them, you have all the money prepared, and you can't take it with you." Lin Qiaoqiao said.The tone hesitated for a few seconds, and then he continued: "I will give you 30 taels, and your son will stay with me. You go to the city to change your clothes. You must remember that you have to pretend that nothing happened. Let them feel You have developed, and you have really found someone who is willing to take advantage of you."

When Lu Anjiang heard it, he, who has been in business all year round, couldn't understand the twists and turns.Immediately, he clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, miss, for your kindness." Then, the two finalized some details.Lu Anjiang got out of the carriage and continued on his way.

The Lin family's convoy went to the entrance of the city to line up for inspection, and the defenders of the city were still the people from the Demon Gate.After Lu Yin handed it up, the people from the Demon Sect waved their hands, urging them just like Hongye City.The humanity of the Demon Sect said: "You are restricted to leave the city within three days! It expires, don't blame us for being rude."

Lily lowered the curtains and said, "Girl! The devils from the two cities didn't make things difficult for us after seeing Lu Yin."

"Probably they saw Shengjing's seal on it! They don't seem to want to offend people in Shengjing, and they might have misunderstood that we have relatives in Shengjing." Lin Qiaoqiao said disapprovingly.

"Yes." Lily said.

After entering Xilan City, it was a different scene.In the originally bustling streets, few pedestrians may be seen.No hawker was seen, and the shops on the left and right were closed.Some doors didn't know where they went, and the shop was in a mess.Finally found an open inn and checked in, the waiter took Lin Qiaoqiao to the guest room.The waiter said: "There is no free yard now, the left and right neighbors of this guest room are girls' homes."

"Thank you, little brother, for taking care of me." Lin Qiaoqiao said, and Lily handed over the reward.

The waiter in the shop took the reward, and said: "This guest room is spacious, and the young lady doesn't have many attendants. Why don't you let this little brother and this sister share a room on the ground floor. It's good to have help, after all, it's not peaceful now. No one knows if there will be a drunkard touching the wrong door at night."

Lin Qiaoqiao nodded, and said, "That's fine, please come over with two more quilts."

The shop waiter immediately replied: "There are some in the room, and they are stored in the cabinet. After nightfall, miss, don't go out, let alone open the window. Miss is born beautiful, it's better to stay in the room. If you have something to do, you can Let the little brother call the little one, that's it."

"Listening to what my second brother said, this city is not peaceful." Lin Qiaoqiao said.

"That's right. Miss, have you heard a word?" said the waiter.

"What? Little brother, but it's okay to say." Lin Qiaoqiao said.

"Fly on a branch and become a phoenix." The waiter said cryptically.
