The wealthy families in An County all began to make amends for their past mistakes, but it was of no use. They had done too many evil things, and locking people in the basement was only the lightest and most insignificant one of them.

Therefore, on the first night that the notice was posted, the Lin family, a famous rice merchant in An County, all of its fifteen members and dozens of servants died. The bodies of the servants were thrown in a mess at the gate of the Lin family's main gate, while the bodies of the masters were all hung upside down on the beams at the gate of the Lin family's main gate. The eyes of each corpse were wide open, as if they had died with their eyes open.

Blood was all over the ground and the air was filled with the pungent smell of blood.

The first person to discover them was the night watchman. He walked to the gate of the Lin family as usual, and saw this horrific scene. He was so scared that he screamed on the spot. His scream woke up the people living nearby. When they saw the miserable condition of the Lin family, they were all terrified.

An County is not big, and the tragic extermination of the Lin family quickly spread to every corner of An County. Even the beggars outside the restaurant knew that those rich people would suffer retribution.

……

"Retribution! All this is retribution!"

"We must find a way, otherwise, the Lin family's today will be our tomorrow."

"Let's invite a demon catcher, let's invite a demon catcher..."

"Mom, what's the use of a demon catcher? If a demon catcher is useful, we wouldn't be so afraid to say a word at night these days."

"What should we do? What should we do? Mother... Mother, wasn't the notice posted by the county government? Isn't uncle the legal advisor to County Magistrate Zeng? Why don't we go ask uncle how they knew about this?"

"But your uncle and our family... have fallen out a long time ago. Will he help with this?"

"Even if the bones are broken, the tendons are still connected. After all, we are a family. What difficulties can't we overcome?"

After these words came out, the head of the Chen family, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke: "Cheng'er is right. After all, we are a family. Even if our bones are broken, our tendons are still connected. No matter what, he will not watch us die. So, Madam, you immediately prepare a generous gift, and Cheng'er and Yuan'er will come with me."

"Ugh."

Mrs. Chen wiped her tears and said, "I just hope that Big Brother can help us out of our past friendship... Otherwise, we really won't be able to survive this time."

Who said no?

It's just killing a few people, why does it endanger their lives? Since ancient times, the strong have preyed on the weak, which is a very normal thing. Why does it cause such serious consequences when it comes to them?

At the same time, it was not only the Chen family who thought of the county government, but also the wealthy families in An County, especially those who knew about Lu Youzhi's existence. They all prepared small gifts, hoping to pray for peace.

No one reflected on themselves, and some even felt that this was too unfair to them. If they had known that killing would have such serious consequences, they would never have committed so many sins.

……

"Miss Lu, many people have sent visiting cards, saying they want to come and see you."

In the county government office, Lu Youzhi was eating. Mr. Chen walked in quickly from outside the door and said to Lu Youzhi with a smile.

"Why do you want to see me? They are just a group of dying people. I won't see them." Lu Youzhi refused bluntly. The smile on Master Chen's face froze: "Miss Lu, is there really no room for maneuver?"

"It's not up to me to decide." Lu Youzhi put down the chopsticks in her hand and said to Master Chen, "It's up to the souls of the people they killed to decide."

Master Chen thought for a moment and said, "Then can't you kill some of the wronged souls?"

As soon as these words came out, the smile on Lu Youzhi's face immediately faded. Father He observed her expression and said, "Why do you want to kill those wronged souls? Isn't it a good thing for the wronged souls to take revenge? Why? Do you want our girl to be contaminated by the sins of those evildoers?"

"Yes."

He Wan'er also said that she was peeling an apple, but when she heard that, she stopped peeling the apple and looked up at Master Chen: "It's not our daughter who asked them to do evil, why should we ask our daughter to stand up for them?"

Master Chen's expression turned ugly, but he said nothing and just looked at Lu Youzhi. Lu Youzhi knew what he was thinking, but she was not angry. Instead, she looked up at Tang Yan and Zhuang Sheng and said, "What are you two still doing? Why don't you send the guests away?"

Then he said to Master Chen, whose face was even uglier, "Master Chen, it's not that I don't want to help, it's just that I can't do this."

Master Chen left, and he was very angry when he left. Seeing this, everyone was a little worried. Master Chen looked like he was not going to give up. What if he used some shady tricks?

Everyone asked Lu Youzhi, but Lu Youzhi didn't take it to heart: "It's okay, I have my own way."

Lu Youzhi had no intention of letting County Magistrate Zeng and Legal Master Chen live. After all, so many people in An County had committed evil and were still safe and sound. County Magistrate Zeng and Legal Master Chen might not have been involved, but he was definitely the conniver. In other words, everything happened with his acquiescence. He was the culprit and the source of all evil. How could such a person be worthy of continuing to be a county magistrate?

Lu Youzhi thought so and had made up her mind to change the legal advisor and the county magistrate. When County Magistrate Zeng heard that he was rejected, his face was not very good, but he didn't care. After all, those who died were not his family members. Those merchants died, and if one merchant died, there would be countless merchants. There were not many people in An County, but there was no shortage of people.

But Master Chen had a different idea.

Master Chen is a man who values ​​blood ties very much. In his early years, he had a quarrel with his second brother because of some things, but he had forgiven them in his heart a long time ago, but he just couldn't bring himself to do it. Now seeing his brother and nephew coming to him to beg him with such pitiful looks, of course he would soften his heart.

But Lu Youzhi showed no mercy at all, which made him very angry. After rejecting other people, he went to Chen's house in person and told the whole story. When the Chen family heard it, they were not very angry. After all, from what Lu Youzhi said, there was a way to solve their current predicament. So they asked Master Chen to take them to find Lu Youzhi and let them meet her in person.

"She's unwilling to help because we haven't given her any benefits."

"There is no one in this world who doesn't love money. Money makes the world go round. As long as you give her enough money, she will have to spend it even if she doesn't want to."

The Chen family is very confident about this.

He Lu Niang hid in the dark and heard all this, only to find out that the reason why the Chen family had changed their attitude was because of a person named Miss Lu.

Miss Lu...

He Lu Niang murmured these three words, her heart filled with gratitude.
