Rebirth: The little junior sister is crazy but super cute!
Chapter 157: Shortage of manpower?
Neither Bo Yan nor Chi Yang behind him were surprised by Mu Qingxi's words.
Bo Yan even yawned. To negotiate terms with his contractor, that person must be very upset.
Chi Yang now understood why Bo Yan stopped him. Qing Qing could really use her life to become stronger. She was so cruel, so crazy, and so clear-headed!
"But..."
Mu Qingxi changed the subject, and the three assassins and the child turned their heads to look at her. Mu Qingxi then realized that the three assassins did not look very old and looked exactly the same. They were actually triplets!
"As long as you promise to let Lin Lin go, we can agree to anything you want."
One of the triplets spoke in a calm tone, with a fearless attitude.
"You don't have to die, and you don't have to separate. Just change your employer and be used by me."
After hearing this, Mu Qingxi originally thought that they would agree readily.
After all, it is better to live a miserable life than to die a good death, no matter who you work for.
As a result, these four people looked dejected and said nothing.
At this time, a cold male voice came and answered Mu Qingxi's doubts.
"Their souls have been restricted. If they betray, they will die."
Ye Xuanmo walked over, followed by Chao Xiyue and Little White Tiger, who both looked worried.
Mu Qingxi suddenly realized that there was such a thing!
"They should be from the Nine Killing Pavilion."
Chi Yang, who had been silent all this time, spoke. He was mainly responsible for running around the continent. Some herbs that his subordinates could not get were brought back by Chi Yang for Si Yang to use in making pills.
Therefore, Chi Yang was the most well-informed. In her previous life, Mu Qingxi's knowledge of the outside world all came from the stories Chi Yang told her every time he returned to the Demon Palace.
Mu Qingxi had heard of the Jiusha Pavilion, an organization of assassins that did things for money and also provided some intelligence information. They were present all over the Lingyu Continent and were said to be mainly based in Xizhou.
The area west of Xizhou is the territory of the demon race. Xizhou has always been in chaos, with no major sects or families governing it. Instead, it is inhabited by desperate criminals, making it like a place of exile.
Mu Qingxi touched his chin. It was a restriction on the soul. This was going to be difficult to deal with.
I originally felt that I was in need of help, so I recruited a few people, but it turned out that I couldn’t use them. Is there only one choice but to kill them?
"Lack of manpower?" Ye Xuanmo asked.
"Yeah!" Mu Qingxi's delicate and proud little face became wrinkled, but she was still very cute.
"When those people attacked the Mu family this time, I realized that my parents had too few people around them. My grandfather, who had the strongest cultivation, could only barely break through the Golden Core Stage. I can't ask the sect for help every time! I need to keep some people around my parents to protect them."
In fact, Mu Qingxi also wanted to further improve the strength of the Mu family.
The mine that was extorted from the Peng family last time was handed over to my father. The problem of spiritual stones should be relieved a lot. What is more important now is manpower.
If the Mu family could be promoted to a second-rate family, or even a first-rate family, Mu Qingxi would feel more at ease when she goes out.
"Let me do it."
Ye Xuanmo's tone was flat, as if he was just talking about a trivial matter like pouring a cup of tea, but it made people feel that there was a kind of tolerance and pampering in his words.
Sure enough, Mu Qingxi's eyes lit up instantly.
"Really? My Lord, you are so amazing!"
Ye Xuanmo's outstretched right hand paused for a moment, almost imperceptibly. The corners of his mouth seemed to bend slightly, but it was also imperceptible.
Then, an inexplicable force appeared in Ye Xuanmo's hand.
Chao Xiyue, who was standing behind Ye Xuanmo, was even frightened by the powerful force and took several steps back.
That is the power of the soul.
Then, the power split into four parts and entered the minds of the four people on the ground. Their expressions immediately became extremely painful.
But except for the youngest boy, the other three triplets managed not to make any sound. Their tenacity was surprisingly strong.
It was the pain of peeling a foreign object from the soul. The four men turned pale with pain and their lips bled from biting them.
Fortunately, Ye Xuanmo was very fast. Within five breaths, he withdrew his hand, and the powerful force disappeared.
Only four people were left on the ground, gasping for breath, and the youngest boy had fainted from the pain.
"Okay, now you can make a choice, surrender, or die."
"We are willing to surrender." One of the most stable triplets responded with a trembling voice, his eyes were firm, and he even wanted to get up and kneel down to Mu Qingxi.
He didn't want to die, nor did he want his brothers to die. He could live anywhere, and he didn't mind who he was loyal to.
Mu Qingxi nodded. Now these four people posed no threat to her, so she generously threw a bottle of healing pills over to them.
"Eat it, and swear an oath to the heavens. Be loyal to me, be loyal to the Mu family, and never betray! By the way, what are your names?"
"My name is Yiying." He pointed at his three younger brothers, "They are Erying, Sanying, and Siying."
"What are your original names?" Mu Qingxi guessed that this was their name in Jiusha Pavilion.
Yiying had already fed the pills to his younger brothers. When he heard Mu Qingxi talking, a complex look flashed in his eyes, but he still answered Mu Qingxi's questions very honestly.
"So, it's Li Da Gou, Li Er Gou, and Li San Gou." Yiying looked at the youngest unconscious child in his arms, "His name is Song Lin."
This is not as good as those four shadows. However, the four brothers have different surnames?
Mu Qingxi asked directly out of curiosity.
Yiying also answered truthfully.
It turns out that these four brothers came from the secular world and were originally just neighbors.
The mother of the three Yiying brothers died a few days after giving birth to the triplets due to poor health. The triplets also looked malnourished and could not survive.
Their father married a new wife a few months later, under the pretext of taking care of the children.
I don’t know if it was an act or she was sincere when she first got married, but the step-wife was pretty nice to the triplets at first. When the triplets were two years old, she got pregnant, and the next year she gave birth to a fat, healthy, fair son.
From then on, the triplets' hard life began.
When they were less than three years old, they started working and serving their stepmother and younger brother.
The most important thing is that they can't get enough to eat, and their already thin bodies become even thinner than before.
Yiying would secretly feed her two younger brothers with food, but once their stepmother reported them, they would be severely beaten by their biological father.
At this time, only the neighbors, the Song family, would speak up for Yiying and sometimes give the triplets some food.
The triplets occasionally help take care of the Song family’s younger brother, Song Lin.
Song Lin's father was a scholar. Although he never passed the imperial examination again, he was still able to teach in a private school, which allowed him to have enough food to eat. He would also occasionally teach the triplets to read.
The third of the triplets even asked their brother why they were not children of the Song family.
The brief moment of happiness was enough to make the three children happy for a moment, because they still had to go home to continue working and serve their biological father, stepmother, and the fat and domineering younger brother.
Their only way out is to grow up, pass the imperial examination like Mr. Song, have enough food to eat, and even settle down in town and leave that home.
But everything stopped on that day.
