Chapter 14: Tie People Up
Chapter 14: Tie People Up
Late at night, the village was unusually quiet, not even the barking of a dog could be heard.
Qingyu was dressed in black, wandering around the village like a ghost.
The family where Li Mulan lived was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
"Ouch."
A man whispered, and someone immediately covered his mouth, "Keep your voice down, or you'll wake them up."
The man was a little unconvinced, "You are too careful. We drugged so much that even the horses in the backyard were drugged. They were fast asleep and could not be woken up."
The female voice said unhappily, "Be careful. Those people today are not simple, especially the woman in black and the young man. They are definitely martial artists."
"So what if she's a martial artist? She still fell into our trap." The tall man was somewhat dissatisfied with the woman's excessive caution.
The short man also chimed in, "That's right, don't think that just because the boss likes you, you really treat yourself as his wife."
The woman looked gloomy, but she didn't say anything else.
The three of them acted separately and went to three different rooms.
The tall man went to the room where Huo Yuanruo and Chu Jie were, the short man went to Qingyu's room, and the woman went to Li Mulan's room.
Huo Yuanruo had already stood up while the others were talking. His movements were very gentle, but Chu Jie noticed it first because he had not slept yet.
Seeing this, Huo Yuanruo gestured to him to keep quiet and asked him to continue lying on the bed and pretending to sleep.
Chu Jie was very obedient. He immediately lay back down and closed his eyes.
When Huo Yuanruo heard the sound of someone outside prying the door with a knife, he flew onto the roof and hid on the railing.
The tall man pried open the door and ran straight to the bed. Seeing Chu Jie with his eyes closed, he asked in confusion, "Why is there only one?"
Just as he was about to look for it, he was attacked from behind and passed out.
Chu Jie opened his eyes immediately after hearing the noise and saw the person lying on the ground, "He's dead?"
Huo Yuanruo chuckled, "No, he fainted. I'm going to go see Junior Master. Are you following me?"
"I'm with you."
Huo Yuanruo nodded, first found a thick rope to tie the man up, and then took Chu Jie away.
In the whispering room, the short man didn't find anyone, and just as he was about to leave, he bumped into Huo Yuanruo who was passing by. Just as the other party was about to shout, Huo Yuanruo knocked him to the ground. Huo Yuanruo threw a thick rope to Chu Jie, "Tie him up." Then he walked towards Li Mulan's room.
Chu Jie looked at the thick rope in his hand in a daze, and tied up the short man in the same way as Huo Yuanruo just now. Although it was a bit strenuous, he finally finished it. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and made sure it was tied tightly before leaving.
Li Mulan was in her room, and she had already woken up when she heard the noise outside the door. Her cunning eyes were sparkling, and she even revealed a hint of interest.
The woman was obviously much more cautious than the two men, one tall and one short. She listened carefully to the movements in the house, and seemed still uneasy. She took out a bamboo joint, poked a hole in the window paper, and blew a puff of smoke into the house.
Li Mulan curled the corners of her lips, the silver needle in her hand flashed with silver light, and she closed her eyes when the visitor opened the door.
The woman looked at the person on the bed and confirmed that he was unconscious before searching the room. When she saw the thick banknotes in the bundle, her eyes gleamed with greed, "It really is a fat sheep."
She quickly put the banknotes into her arms, and looked outside the door worriedly. When she found that the two men did not come over, she carefully put the bag back in its place.
Li Mulan saw all of the women's behavior with great amusement, and was much smarter than those two idiots.
After receiving the banknote, the woman shifted her gaze to the pretty girl on the bed, her eyes flashing with jealousy.
Although there was a scar at the corner of her eye, her stunning face could still be seen. Especially her demeanor, which showed that she was raised in pampered conditions. Unlike her, her life was as rough as duckweed. What she hated most in her life was this kind of girl who was out of touch with the world, and she wanted to destroy her when she saw her. Why could they be so happy, while she was born in hell?
Li Mulan clearly felt the other party's hostility and felt a little confused.
The woman drew out a short blade, stabbed towards Li Mulan's chest with a fierce look in her eyes.
A flash of silver light passed by, and three silver needles rushed straight to the woman's face. The woman was horrified and quickly stepped back, dodging two of the silver needles, but not the third.
The silver needle passed through the woman's right cheek, and a blood mark immediately appeared. The woman touched her cheek in fear and immediately felt a wet spot. She raised her eyes and glared at the little girl who was smiling at her on the bed, "You are not drugged?"
Li Mulan stretched lazily, "I don't care about that little bit of knockout drug. I said that you are a young and beautiful woman, not only wanting money, but also wanting to kill people. You are really the most vicious woman."
The woman gritted her teeth, unable to see the depth of Li Mulan, her eyes moved, and she turned around and wanted to run. Huo Yuanruo, who had just arrived, kicked her in the chest, flew out, hit the wall directly, spit out blood, and fainted.
Li Mulan walked over and took back the banknotes from the woman's arms. She couldn't lose them. Then she looked at the unconscious person carefully. "Tsk tsk tsk tsk, Yuanyuan, how could you not have any sympathy for a woman like her? You hit her too hard. Look, she's vomiting blood."
Huo Yuanruo curled his lips, "Little Master, you just said that women have the most vicious hearts."
Chu Jie came over quickly, "Sister Lan, are you okay?"
Li Mulan stood up and touched Chu Jie's head, "I'm fine, is Xiao Jie scared?"
Huo Yuanruo chuckled, then took out a thick rope and tied up the unconscious man. "I think this kid is very brave. How can he look scared?"
Chu Jie looked at Li Mulan a little embarrassedly, and was relieved when he saw that she didn't care.
"Throw the man into the yard. My sister should be back soon."
After a while, the three people who were tied up woke up, and their faces changed when they found out their current situation.
The short man said fiercely, "You little bastard, let your grandfather go quickly, or you will be in trouble."
Huo Yuanruo didn't sleep well and was a little angry. He kicked the man out. The man immediately fell to the ground and spit out blood. He looked like he was dying.
Li Mulan frowned, "Be gentle, they can't stand your kick."
Huo Yuanruo leaned against a big tree in the yard and said, "I only used half of my strength."
The tall man was a little scared. Fortunately, he didn't show up just now. But he still said stubbornly, "Hurry up and let us go. Our boss is nearby. When he comes..."
Before he could finish his words, three men were thrown in from outside. They all looked miserable. One of them, a burly man in black, was the boss he had just mentioned.
Qingyu walked in with a frosty face, and her whole body was full of imposing aura.
"Boss!" the tall man shouted in horror. It's over, it's really over.
The woman did not react much when she saw this, but her eyes showed a hint of hatred and joy.
The sturdy man known as the boss got up with some difficulty, "Lady, please spare us, please spare us, we are only after money, we didn't kill anyone, please spare our lives."
After hearing this, Qingyu swung the whip at the boss, causing him to howl desperately.
"You didn't kill anyone, but you did something worse than killing someone. You took away someone's innocence and caused several women to commit suicide. Do you call that not killing anyone?"
