Chapter 12
"Can anyone see their faces clearly?"

Xu Lan's face gradually turned pale, who would have the courage to commit murder in broad daylight!

"No, they all covered their faces."

"What does the yamen say?"

At this time, Chen Ci asked, the yamen couldn't react at all when such a big incident happened, could it?
"People from the Yamen came later, but they just asked us to count the lost goods. As for the perpetrators, they said they would trace them."

Hearing this, Xu Lan and Chen Ci looked at each other. This behavior made it clear that they were seeking revenge.

"I'll go to the Yamen and ask for you."

Chen Ci's expression was a bit ugly, because she already had some guesses in her mind.

"it is good."

Xu Lan nodded and said to Ah Fu, "Take me to Huichuntang to have a look."

Chen Ci clasped his fists towards Xu Lan and left. Xu Lan also arrived at the Huichun Hall under the leadership of Ah Fu.

Here I saw shopkeeper Zhou who had a broken arm and some other badly injured guys,
None of the dozens of people could get out of bed and walk around, which shows the seriousness of the injury!
"Doctor, can he get his arm back?"

Xu Lan stood next to the unconscious shopkeeper Zhou and asked the doctor. The doctor did not answer and just shook his head.

"If it was an ordinary broken arm, there might still be a chance, but there is some rust powder on his wound, so it's hard to say whether he can save his life."

The doctor's words made Xu Lan's face even more ugly, who is so vicious!
At this moment, Shopkeeper Zhou, who had been unconscious for a long time, suddenly heard some movement. He slowly opened his eyes and saw Xu Lan in front of him, who was also a little excited.

"Shopkeeper Zhou, have a good rest."

Seeing this, Xu Lan knelt down and supported him to keep him from moving around, so as not to affect the wound that was bandaged with great difficulty.

"Sir, I'm sorry, the goods can't be saved."

Shopkeeper Zhou's lips moved slightly, and he said a word with difficulty.

"Those are not important, you are lucky if you are fine."

Xu Lan comforted him: "You have a good rest and recuperate, and leave everything else to me."

"Can"

Shopkeeper Zhou seemed to want to say something more, but the pain from his broken arm almost made him pass out again.

Seeing this, Xu Lan's heart moved slightly, and he probably understood something.

Ordinary people live for nothing more than a few taels of silver.

"The two of you go back to the Xu Mansion to find the cashier and bring 1000 taels back to Huichun Hall."

Xu Lan turned to Qingluan and Hongluan and said, "At the same time, tell the accountant to compile a list of the injured this time and send 100 taels to each of their homes."

"Besides, tell my mother about this and ask her to send some of her guards to other shops to ensure that the same thing doesn't happen again."

There is a group of strong guards in the Xu Mansion, most of them are at the first level and there are even two instructors with the second level.

"Yes, son."

Qingluan and Hongluan left in response, and then Xu Lan continued to speak to the doctor at Huichun Hall: "The money is enough, I want each of them to survive, do you understand?"

"Don't worry, Mr. Xu, we will naturally do our best."

How dare the doctors of Huichuntang say nothing, although Xu Lan is young in front of him, but there is a bit of a master's demeanor in his gestures!

"You don't need to worry, I, Xu Lan, am not an ungrateful person."

Finally Xu Lan stood up and looked around at the seriously injured guys and said, "I'll ask the accountant to send a sum of money to each of your families later, including the wages during your recovery period."

"Good, good, good"

Hearing this, shopkeeper Zhou showed an expression of relief, and they felt a lot more at ease with the young master's words.

Next, Xu Lan also greeted every seriously injured guy. His lack of any airs made many guys feel grateful.

In today's world, few people can be as generous as Mr. Xu. If it were others, they would probably ignore them or even fire them directly.

After half a stick of incense, Qing Luan and Hong Luan brought 1000 taels and handed it over to the Hall of Rejuvenation, accompanied by six first-level guards.

"My lord, madam let us protect you."

They also saluted respectfully after seeing Xu Lan, and frowned slightly after seeing many wounded people.

Who was so cruel?

"Well, let's go back home."

Xu Lan took a deep breath, for now, go back to Xu Mansion to report safety, otherwise Yan Yu will die in a hurry.

"My lord, aren't we going to the yamen?"

Qingluan and Hongluan looked at each other in shock. Shouldn't they go to the Yamen at this time?

"I won't go, there's no need."

Xu Lan turned around and walked out of the hospital silently, already having some guesses about this matter in her heart.

No one noticed the fierce flash in Xu Lan's eyes when he turned and entered the dim street.

Soon Xu Lan returned to Xu Mansion,

Yan Yu also breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xu Lanping standing in front of her safely. Now she is really afraid that something will happen to her eldest son.

"Be good, promise mom, you will stay at home during this period and don't go anywhere."

Yan Yu said: "Tomorrow I will go to the Chenghuang Temple to ask for some peace charms for you, and then find someone to tell your fortune to see if you have any bad luck recently."

"Good good."

Xu Lan supported Yan Yu and said with a smile, "Mother, it's getting late, and it's time to go to bed."

"Hey, it's all your father's fault!"

As Yan Yu was talking, she suddenly remembered something, and couldn't help complaining: "Why do you promise others to go out when you have nothing to do? Once he leaves, you will be in constant trouble."

"Okay, okay, I will say a few words for you when Dad comes back."

Xu Lan still kept smiling, and managed to coax Yan Yu to sleep.

"Is Miss Chen back?"

After Yan Yu left, the smile on Xu Lan's face slowly disappeared.

"not yet."

Qingluan said: "Master, go to sleep first. I will call you when I come back."

"No, I'll wait."

Xu Lan was silent for a few seconds and then walked to the small courtyard where his bedroom was. He looked up at the bright moon and said, "Qingluan, bring me the sword on the wall of the bedroom."

"it is good."

Although Qingluan found it strange, he did as he did.

After a while, Qingluan sent the sword over.
After receiving the sword, Xu Lan held the sword and began to slash it one after another, each time at a faster speed.

An hour passed,

Xu Lan still didn't stop, his clothes were already wet with sweat.

"My lord, it's already late."

Qingluan and Hongluan persuaded Xu Lan while wiping the sweat off her forehead, but they also wondered why Miss Chen Ci hadn't come back yet.

"Go to sleep first."

Xu Lan said calmly, the soreness and numbness in his arms still unable to calm the anger in his heart.

But he didn't sleep, and Qingluan and Hongluan didn't feel at ease, so they could only stay with him.

Then Xu Lan felt that the clothes on his body were too obstructive, so he took off his shirt, and slashed with his sword with his naked upper body.

two hours,

three hours,

Xu Lan kept slashing the long sword in his hand tirelessly until dawn gradually broke.
