Chapter 421: The secret is exposed, panic and fear
Suddenly, the servant felt a pain in his arm and the strength in his hand loosened immediately.
Willow catkins also took the opportunity to escape.
"Stop her now, don't let her get away!"
The servant came to his senses and immediately went after Liu Xu. However, as he took a step, he felt pain in his ankle again and fell forward uncontrollably!
"Who! Who attacked me?" the servant shouted.
There was no one around.
When he thought of where they were now and the piles of female corpses they had killed in the cave, he became horrified!
"This place is so evil! They are here to take revenge on us!"
"Bullshit, what nonsense are you talking about? Hurry up and chase him!"
The old woman also chased in the direction where Liu Xu ran.
But after taking only two steps, he felt a pain in his ankle and fell down.
Her luck was not so good. She happened to be on a slope. When she fell, her body kept rolling down the slope and finally hit a tree, and she fell into a coma.
"Ghost! There is a ghost!" The remaining servant didn't even bother to chase Liu Xu, his legs were shaking with fear.
Liu Xu ran for a while and saw that no one was catching up with him. He felt a sense of joy as if he had survived a disaster.
However, she did not dare to delay and ran forward desperately.
However, this was deep in the mountains, and she couldn't remember the way she came, so she could only run aimlessly.
The news that Liu Xu had run away reached the old lady two hours later.
When the old lady heard the news, she was furious!
"A bunch of rubbish! You can't even do such a small task. Send more people to look for her immediately. She is a weak woman deep in the mountains. She definitely can't escape! When you find her, kill her immediately!"
"Yes!"
What the old lady didn't expect was that someone helped Liu Xu.
So, the catkins quickly ran out of the forest and went around the back of the mountain.
There are already people living here, and there are some thatched houses at the foot of the mountain.
She was now tired and hungry, and with the last of her strength she ran towards the thatched huts.
As soon as she arrived in front of a farmer's house, she fainted.
When I woke up again, I didn’t feel tired at all, but full of energy.
After Liu Xu fell into a coma, Rong Song secretly stuffed a pill into her mouth. Otherwise, even if she woke up, she would be in so much pain that she wouldn't be able to move.
The farmers were an elderly couple who took good care of Liu Xu and even made some porridge for her.
"Old lady, has the girl woken up yet?" The old man's voice came from outside. "I'm lucky today. I exchanged vegetables for two fish. You can stew them later to nourish the girl."
"it is good."
Liu Xu lowered her guard when she heard the noise outside and was finally glad that she had escaped.
She didn't expect that the old lady of Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion would have such a face!
He was cruel, ruthless, and insidious. He sent her to the manor because he was afraid that people would find out and ruin Luo Heng's reputation, so he wanted to take her life!
In comparison, Mrs. Jiang is still kind.
At least, he didn't think of killing her, but selling her out.
Liu Xu grew up in a place of prostitution. If Luo Heng hadn't been willing to spend money on her, how could she have been willing to give herself to him? In addition to money, she also wanted to change her identity, to seduce Luo Heng and take her as a concubine.
Unexpectedly, before her plan was completed, she almost lost her life!
Also, whose bones did she see in the cave belong to?
Since she was brought there and those people attacked her, maybe the human bones there are also related to the Luo family!
She would find a place to hide first and wait for Luo Heng to come back. She would insist that Luo Heng seek justice for her, even if the person who killed her was the old lady!
Liu Xu still holds a glimmer of hope for Luo Heng.
She fantasized in her heart that as long as Luo Hengyi came back, she would be safe.
Perhaps, in order to save her life, she could go to the North and take the initiative to find Luo Heng!
Once I had this thought, I could never get it out of my mind.
Liu Xu rested here for two days.
The old man brought back some news from outside, saying that a noble family had lost someone and was frantically searching for him in the mountains!
Upon hearing the news, Liu Xu could no longer sit still.
She couldn't stay here any longer; sooner or later they would find out.
In order to thank the two old men for saving her life, she gave them a pair of her gold earrings and then hurried on her way.
The sooner she reaches the North, the sooner she can escape from danger.
……
Prince's Mansion.
Ji Chuhe was shocked when he heard Rong Song's report.
"Did she really go north?" she confirmed again in disbelief.
"Madam, what is her plan for going north?" Xiao Yan'an hadn't reacted yet.
"She's heading north, most likely to look for Luo Heng."
"Looking for Luo Heng? What is she thinking? Is she going to die on her own initiative?"
"She didn't think that her choice was to die. She even thought that as long as she met Luo Heng, he would definitely protect her."
"The Luo family has already taken action against her, and he still believes Luo Heng. No, what is in her mind?"
"It's pretending to be love. It shows that love can indeed make people blind."
Xiao Yanan: ...
"It's okay, let her go." Ji Chuhe replied to Rong Song.
"Yes, I will continue to follow her. Madam Zhenyuan Hou's people have also discovered her tracks, and they will probably guess soon that she went all the way north."
"That will be even more interesting. If the people from Zhenyuan Marquis' Mansion can't catch Liu Xu, then it will be Luo Heng's turn next."
……
Jiang was looking at the account book when suddenly a chaotic sound of footsteps was heard outside.
The old lady walked in quickly, raised her hand and slapped Jiang without saying anything.
"Look what you've done! That catkin has escaped!"
Jiang's face suddenly turned cold.
She just wanted to use Liu Xu to seize the power of the housekeeper. If Liu Xu escaped from the old lady, that would be another matter!
"Madam, we must not let her escape!"
"You know you're anxious now! Weren't you very proud when you exposed this matter? If Liu Xu escaped and told the truth, would my son still keep you?"
Jiang's heart couldn't help but tighten.
Regardless of the fact that the old lady was still furious, she turned and ran out.
She knew what the old lady had done over the years.
Those women abandoned by Luo Heng were never sent to the farm to be raised, they have all passed away!
These were all made by the old lady!
If Liu Xu knew this secret and escaped, the consequences would be disastrous.
She must tell the Marquis about this.
Because neither she nor the old lady could bear the consequences of this incident.
After hearing what Jiang said, Marquis Zhenyuan was so angry that his eyes turned black!
"Why have you been hiding such an important thing from me?"
"My Lord, I really don't dare to contradict the old lady. If I dare to tell you, she will torture me every day on the grounds of jealousy. I don't dare. However, if something unexpected happens this time, it will bring disaster to Zhenyuan Marquis! I dare not hide it from you anymore."
