Chapter 421 The Deaf and Mute Shared Wife 9

As a result, when they rushed back, there was no one there. The yard was empty, the stove had no residual heat, and even the room was cold.

Xue Rongyu looked towards the cowshed. The cows inside were still there, wagging their tails.

Li Wenping also went to the toilet to look for him, but no one was there.

Nangong Xuan went around the village looking for her but couldn't find her. He returned to the yard and asked, "Where do you think she would go?"

Xue Rongyu touched the cow and put a lot of hay and vegetable leaves into the cowshed.

"I'll stay here and wait."

The three of them spoke together.

Li Wenping did not look at Xue Rongyu and Nangong Xuan. He said, "I didn't think highly of them. One of you is a general and the other is a minister. I think there are still many things that need to be done by you. I don't have any official position, so it is most appropriate for me to stay."

In the end, Li Wenping stayed, while Xue Rongyu and Nangong Xuan rode back on horseback.

After they left, Li Wenping walked to the door and looked around. She would come back, otherwise where could she go?

This wait lasted until the new emperor ascended the throne.

On the day the new emperor ascended the throne, he first rewarded his subjects according to their merits and then arranged a marriage for the princess.

If Li Qingruo liked Xue Rongyu and Nangong Xuan, she thought the new emperor would choose one of them to be her consort, but he didn't.

Because, on the day Xue Rongyu and Nangong Xuan escorted the new emperor back to the palace, they said they wanted to resign.

After all, there is only one emperor and one courtier.

However, the new emperor had just ascended the throne and his foundation was unstable. He did not want to disappoint people's hearts, especially since one was a general and the other was a third-rank minister in the court.

The new emperor did not agree to their resignation, but instead asked them not to attend the morning court during this period and to concentrate on their own work. However, there was a time limit, only half a month.

Xue Rongyu and Nangong Xuan also said that they did not want any reward, but only wanted an imperial decree to grant marriage, and it was both with Xiaocao.

The new emperor then remembered that these two men and the one from the prime minister's family were said to have shared a wife at that time.

This really shows that you care about people.

The new emperor watched the two men take the imperial edict and leave, and whispered, "They value friendship."

When the two men rode back to the village at full speed, Li Wenping was battling wits and courage with the prime minister, and he just refused to go back.

Xue Rongyu glanced at the yard; she still hadn't come back.

Nangong Xuan had also sent someone to inquire where Xiaocao's original home was. He still remembered what he had heard about how Xiaocao lived in that family's home.

Li Wenping noticed that the two of them had returned, and hurried over to ask, "Did you encounter any grass along the way?"

"No."

Nangong Xuan also said to Xue Rongyu: "Let's go to other villages and have a look."

Xue Rongyu and Nangong Xuan rode away on horseback, and Li Wenping followed closely on horseback. The prime minister looked at his troublesome son, so he also followed with his men.

The cow in the cowshed blinked, and suddenly walked out of the cowshed by itself, out of the yard and went to the other side.

By the way, Ali was wandering in the mountains at this time, climbing trees to pick fruits from time to time.

As a result, he was hit by a cow that came out from nowhere.

Ahri looked back and touched the bull's head. It seemed quite familiar.

The old ox just stood there quietly, shaking its tail.

Ali looked carefully again. Isn’t this the old ox of Xue Daniu?

Are they nearby?

Ali raised his hand and touched the old ox's head, and looked around, but they were not there.

You know what, after being free for so long, Ahri still misses them a little.

In particular, there are too few young and honest people here.

During this period, there were some bandits who blocked her way to rob her and wanted to kidnap her, but she beat them to death with a stick.

Ali patted the old ox, not knowing whether the three of them were still in the yard.

It’s been almost half a month, so she might as well go back with Old Huangniu.

Ali also discovered that the old ox did not need to be driven and just followed her.

When she stops, it stops too; when she walks, it walks too.

Ali also picked some fruits to feed the ox, and the old ox ate several of them.

When he returned to the yard, Ali found that there was no one in the yard.

It looked like no one had cleaned the cowshed for a long time. Ali looked at the old ox and thought, "It must have been a long time since anyone cleaned the cowshed for you, so you thought of looking for me."

The old ox swung its tail and called out to Ali twice.

Ali smiled, rolled up her sleeves, walked into the cowshed and started cleaning.

She had made up her mind that if the three of them didn't come back, then this would be her home, and she would have the old ox to keep her company.

By then, she can find someone to give birth to a baby.

After cleaning the cowshed, Ali also discovered that there were several water tanks in the yard. Only the one in the kitchen had water, while the others were out of water.

There was a layer of dust in the kitchen. Ali was not in a hurry to clean it up. She wanted to take a shower first.

Fortunately, there was enough hay and we could make fire and boil water.

By the time Ali had boiled the water, got his clothes, and carried the bucket to take a bath, the yard was still quiet. Only the old ox was standing in the cowshed, shaking its tail.

After Ali finished taking a shower and entered the house, she found that her original clothes had not been touched and the kang in the room was relatively clean. She pulled back the quilt and smelled it. Fortunately, there was no strange smell.

Ali went out to close the courtyard gate and locked the door of the room. She wanted to take a nap first, then go fetch some water, chop some firewood, wash her clothes, and cook. She didn't know if there was any rice left in the kitchen.

Now she has to do a lot of things by herself.

Ali sighed, life is not easy.

Unlike Ali who slept comfortably, Xue Rongyu found the original owner's home, but there was no one there.

Some villagers nearby said: "The whole family is dead. I don't know who they offended. The bodies were not discovered until they were already smelly."

Nangong Xuan asked: "Why did their whole family die?"

"I don't know, but someone saw them capture a girl from somewhere and lock her up in a house. Oh, and someone also found a blood-stained dress."

Li Wenping listened to the man talking and went in to look for the bloodstained dress.

There were a lot of blackened bloodstains in one room, and the other room was a woodshed.

There was indeed a blood-stained dress thrown outside the woodshed.

Li Wenping stared blankly at the dress, which he had prepared for Xiaocao at that time.

There were dark red bloodstains on the hem of the skirt and other places, and there was a lot of dirt on the skirt.

"Will not."

Li Wenping stepped back, looked at the villager, and asked, "Besides this family, is there any other girl?"

The villager thought for a moment and said, "No, it looked scary at the time anyway, and no one took it seriously. But it should have been all men, not girls."

Li Wenping didn't know whether he should breathe a sigh of relief. Xue Rongyu and Nangong Xuan had already walked up to him, standing on each side. Xue Rongyu asked, "Do you recognize this dress?"

The prime minister saw that something was wrong with these three people, and one of them was his son, so he asked someone to investigate the real cause of death of those people.

Li Wenping said very slowly: "It was the dress I prepared for her that day."

"sure?"

"Ah."

Xue Rongyu and Nangong Xuan looked at the nearby villagers, then at the house, and said together: "Search, search the whole village."

This search is amazing.

This village is a devil's den. There are many women who are tied up in the cellar against their will. They are reduced to tools for giving birth, and people can come in and bully them at any time and anywhere.

Fortunately, Xue Rongyu and his team came prepared this time and brought a lot of people with them.

Several villagers were found with women locked up in their homes and wanted to kill them, but were killed by Xue Rongyu with a single sword.

The people behind did not dare to act rashly. There were many women who were rescued. Some were pregnant, some were unconscious, and some even had their throats slit on the spot when they were rescued. The desire to survive was long gone from their eyes.

None of these people are the one they are looking for.

Li Wenping looked at them one by one, and none of them were grass.

He was panicked and scared.

Xue Rongyu and Nangong Xuan were able to keep their composure. Now that neither the person nor the body was found, they could not panic.

The prime minister saw that Li Wenping seemed to be on the verge of collapse, and he wanted to go up and wake him up. Where was his composure and steadiness? For a village girl, he was now behaving so improperly.

Xue Rongyu looked down at the sword hanging on his horse. He wanted to massacre the village. This village was rotten from the root.

At this time, Nangong Xuan raised his hand, and the guards they brought drove the villagers to the center of the village and surrounded the village.

Nangong Xuan also asked: "Where did you throw the dead girls every time?"

After not hearing anyone's answer for a long time, Nangong Xuan asked someone to prepare firewood.

I don't know how long it took, but when there were a lot of dead wood and hay piled up densely around, someone said, "Throw it into the ravine."

The Prime Minister coughed lightly at this time and said, "I heard that there are many bandits in this area, and they all like to wear masks."

These two men were ruthless people, but they still had to pretend before they could openly massacre the entire village.

Xue Rongyu thought about it and decided that he should pretend, so he picked up the handkerchief and covered half of his face.

Seeing this, others also put on face coverings.

The same thing happened to Nangong Xuan and Li Wenping. They put on their face scarves and looked around. If they found anyone trying to escape or someone hiding nearby, they would shoot the arrows in their hands.

The prime minister lamented that he was getting old, and he left with his people.

There were bandits entering the village behind him and villagers shouting for help, but he didn't see or hear anything and had no idea what was happening.

Not long after, thick smoke rose in the sky, so thick that it turned black.

On the other side, Ali woke up, and she harnessed the old ox to the cart, preparing to go get water together.

There was no need to drive the old ox. It just watched Ali take a few empty buckets and put them on the ox cart, and then it kept moving forward.

Ali sat on the ox cart and found that there were still many people scattered around the village.

The water quality at the water source is quite clear, and there are several people drawing water.

The old ox stopped. Ali went over with the bucket and then picked up the ladle to fetch water.

Even if the people nearby wanted to ask where Ali was from, Ali didn't say anything, as if he didn't hear them, so they didn't ask.

After filling the several wooden barrels with water, Ali put them on the ox cart and drove the old ox back.

Look, this not only reduces walking distance but also saves energy.

However, when Ali got home, she found that the gate was open, there were several people standing in the yard, and an old man was sitting on a chair drinking tea.

The old ox didn't stop and went straight into the yard.

Before Ali could get off the ox cart, she came into direct confrontation with the old man and other people in the yard.

The prime minister was still wondering who stole the old ox or whether the old ox ran away by itself.

As a result, looking at his returning old ox, the people on the ox cart, and the buckets of water on the ox cart, he looked at Ali carefully again.

Could this person be those two ruthless men and the country girl that his silly son likes?

"Go up and help."

When the Prime Minister saw that Ali smiled at him politely but made no sound, he spoke to the person next to him.

Then, Ali found that the bucket that she had difficulty carrying was now easily lifted by others, and she felt a little depressed.

The Prime Minister even walked over to Ahri and gestured, "Where do you want to take it?"

Ali pointed to the big water tank in the yard and walked over with a bucket of water.

After Ali poured in a bucket of water and walked away, the people from the prime minister's side also came in with water.

Ali turned around and looked at the old man. Who is this person?
