Chapter 314 Mrs. 4
Upon hearing that Xu Fu was going to find the fourth lady to bring trouble, Shi Zhu struggled internally and did not respond for a while.
"Do you want to think about it further?" Xu Fu asked with a smile. He grabbed a palm-sized exquisite purple clay teapot on the table and crushed it into pieces without any effort.
"I dare not! As long as you spare my life, I will do anything for you!"
Looking at the falling fragments, Shizhu suddenly came to his senses, and while agreeing, he climbed up with great effort.
When he got up, he found that his pants were wet with urine. Shizhu forced a very ugly smile at Xu Fu.
"Change it quickly!"
Hearing Xu Fu speak, Shizhu hurriedly found a new set of clothes and put them on, then, panting, led Xu Fu out.
"If we go so late, the fourth lady might have gone to bed. You see..."
As soon as Shizhu went out, he discussed it with Xu Fu.
"Bring a box of snacks." Xu Fu said coldly.
Hearing Xu Fu's firm tone and no hesitation at all, Shizhu knew that he had to go on this trip.
The wealth and glory that was about to be within his grasp were gone just like that. Shizhu felt like crying but had no tears. However, he still knew what was more important than his life.
Shizhu was walking in front and Xu Fu was following behind with snacks in his hands. It was difficult for outsiders to notice the flaws.
Along the way, the two saw two waves of patrolling guards, both of which were covered up by the stone pillars with a smile.
Shizhu knew very well that his life was in someone's hands. If he wanted to survive, he had to satisfy the man behind him first.
Soon, the two arrived at the fourth lady's residence. At Xu Fu's instructions, Shizhu went forward and knocked on the door.
"What?"
The person who came out was a maid.
Although the maid was dressed in servant's clothes, there was a sense of pride between her brows, which was very different from the other maids in the Shi family.
"Sister, I'm the kitchen manager. I brought some snacks and came to say hello to the Fourth Madam." Shizhu said with an apologetic smile.
"Wait!"
The maid closed the door and came out again after a while.
"go in!"
The maid made way for her, and Shizhu walked in while thanking her, and Xu Fu followed her in.
"Meet the Fourth Madam and meet the two Immortal Masters."
After Shizhu entered the door, he found that several lights were lit in the yard. The Fourth Lady was sitting in the yard with two immortal masters drinking tea. It was clearly the middle of the night, but none of them looked tired, just with a solemn expression.
Xu Fu hid behind a stone pillar and took a cautious glance out of the corner of his eye, then his heart suddenly tightened.
Shizhu did not recognize the two immortal masters, but Xu Fu was not unfamiliar with them. One of them was Qingli, with whom he had just fought not long ago, and the other was Yin Qingbo from Zhuque Shanglingyuan.
Fortunately, it was the middle of the night and Xu Fu was blocked by stone pillars, so the two men did not recognize him.
However, this also forced Xu Fu, who had originally planned to act quietly, to make long-term plans.
The whole yard was filled with the strong fragrance of flowers, but Xu Fu knew that this was all to deceive people. To be more precise, it was to cover up the smell of the poison.
The poison made by Xing Shande was indeed hidden here!
Xu Fu began to debate whether to use brute force to break in. Qingli herself was okay, as without the Xuanyin Thorn, she was nothing to be afraid of. But Yin Qingbo was much more powerful than Qingli, especially the poisonous insects she raised. Even if Xu Fu had a body of steel, he would still find it troublesome.
"I should have brought Xiao Huang with me earlier!" Xu Fu regretted secretly in his heart.
Xu Fu was feeling frustrated in the back, but Shi Zhu was not idle either.
He was very good at observing people's expressions, and he knew from the expressions of these three people that something big must have happened. However, he quickly thought of Xu Fu behind him, and he understood it all at once.
However, Shizhu still didn't dare to call for help. He just hoped that the three ladies in front of him could find the thief behind him as soon as possible and capture him with magic.
"You must be hungry, eat something." A beautiful middle-aged woman said softly. As soon as she finished speaking, the maid took the food box from Xu Fu and handed it over.
"Do you have something to say?" Seeing that the stone pillar did not retreat, the beautiful middle-aged woman asked softly.
"I...actually..."
Shizhu didn't know what to say. He was like a puppet at this moment, completely out of control!
Suddenly, the three women in the yard looked in the same direction at the same time.
Shizhu and Xu Fu didn't understand what was going on, so they turned their heads away as well.
Fire shot into the sky.
"The water is gone! The water is gone!"
Shouts followed.
"I gonna go see."
After Qingli finished speaking, she flew into the air, stepped on a sharp thorn, and flew towards the direction of the fire.
"Why is there still more?"
Xu Fu felt helpless. This time he saw clearly that what Qingli was stepping on was undoubtedly the Xuanyin Thorn. He couldn't help but complain in his heart!
Not long after Qingli left, the whole yard suddenly shook slightly. The beautiful woman and Yin Qingbo looked at each other, both with looks of surprise and doubt.
"Oh no, the warehouse collapsed!"
There was another shout.
"Warehouse?"
The beautiful woman frowned and looked in another direction.
"It was intentional." Yin Qingbo said in a deep voice.
The warehouse collapsed unusually, so Yin Qingbo immediately said goodbye to the beautiful woman and flew towards the warehouse with his magic weapon.
"Everyone's gone, why don't you show up?"
Seeing Yin Qingbo disappear into the night, the beautiful middle-aged woman suddenly said in a cold voice.
Shizhu and Xu Fu were both stunned.
During this moment of distraction, Xu Fu suddenly felt something hit his chest and he took half a step back.
When I looked again, I saw that the stone pillar had fallen straight down, its eyes wide open, as if it had died with its eyes open.
A spot of blood seeped onto his clothes from the center of his chest, like a small red flower embroidered on his chest.
Xu Fu was shocked to discover that what pushed him back half a step was actually a thin needle.
This thin needle is black and gray all over, slightly thicker and shorter than an embroidery needle, with a flash of black light on it, and it appears to be made of the same material as the Xuanyin Thorn.
At this time, the needle is directly inserted into the longevity card worn on the chest.
Fortunately, the Changsheng card was strong enough and was not pierced by the needle.
"It's really you!"
Without the stone pillar blocking her view, the beautiful middle-aged woman recognized Xu Fu at a glance.
"How did you find me?"
Xu Fu was puzzled. He thought he was hiding well and Shizhu would definitely not dare to make any small moves under his coercion, but the woman in front of him still discovered him.
"There's a fire and a house collapse. How could a servant look like you? If not an assassin, then what else could he be?" the beautiful woman said with a chuckle.
Xu Fu suddenly realized what was going on and cursed himself inwardly, then he got into position and prepared to attack.
"I know you, Xu Fu, from Qinglong, with ninth-grade cultivation..." the beautiful woman said softly, obviously knowing Xu Fu very well.
"It's good that you know how powerful I am. If you are willing to mend your ways, I can give you a chance to live." Xu Fu said in a deep voice with a wary look on his face.
"I know you, but do you know me?"
As the beautiful woman spoke, she picked up a cup of tea and looked at Xu Fu leisurely.
