Chapter 3 Someone Is Killing People

Yang Zijin said quietly, "What's done is done. Let's escape quickly." "No!" Linglong shouted, "We can't escape!" All were astonished. Linglong said, "Marquis Shuo appeared in Spring Breeze, but it has nothing to do with us! And Young Master, you are the one who knocked Marquis Shuo over. How can you expect us to be on a vagrant life? What's more, we are all women. How can we escape away from officers and men!?" "Yes, yes..." Yang Zijin looked slightly colder, "Do you think we can stay here safely? The one upstairs even dared to kill the daughter of a Minister. Won't he kill you?" Noticing that things were in a bad way, Madam Yang hurriedly pulled Yang Zijin to the room in the backyard, fished out a small wooden box under the dresser, and handed it over to Yang Zijin seriously. She whispered, "My child, do you remember the manor that I bought secretly several years ago?" "I remember it." "Good for that!" Madam Yang held Yang Zijin's hand tightly, and said, "Hurry up. Take these and ride a horse. Escape from Jing City at once. Stay in the manor and don't go anywhere. If you haven’t heard from me for a month, then you dress up as a girl, change your name, and never come to Jing City, understand?" "Mom!" Yang Zijin had already thought about it. Shuo Ling's temper was too bad, and it would be impossible to beg for mercy. Now Spring Breeze was taken advantage by someone and it wouldn’t be clean anymore. “In this case, things would be better if I let Shuo Ling sleep for a longer time, then lock the door, and escape with all the sisters together. Then Shuo Ling will wake up in an empty brothel. He can’t do anything,” she thought. Anyway, they had money in hand, and could start a new life somewhere else. "Sweetheart!" Madam Yang held Yang Zijin's small face with tears in her eyes. "Linglong is right. We can't run far. Rather than caught back and tortured cruelly by officials, it's better to make things quick!" "I won't go! At least, I won't abandon you to leave alone!" It was impossible for Yang Zijin to do such perfidious things. She didn't care whether Linglong left or not, but she would take any girl who wanted to leave! Seeing Yang Zijin rushing out in a hurry, Madam Yang followed her in a hurry, but just arrived at the door, she saw the panicked Wufu. "Madam Yang, woke up...he woke up!!" "Quick, find Young Master at once and let him leave here quickly!" Madam Yang felt dizzy as if her whole world had been about to collapse. She finally calmed down after holding the door frame for a while. She rushed to the front room. Before reaching it, she heard horrible screams. "Spare me! Your Lordship, please spare me!" "Someone is killing people!" "Someone is killing people! Help..." Madam Yang took a deep breath. Her first reaction was to escape quickly, but at the thought of the girls who had followed her for so many years, she gnashed her teeth, and rushed in. "Marquis Shuo, spare us!!" Madam Yang shrieked and fell to her knees, begging for mercy again and again, "Your Lordship, we are innocent. We don't know anything! I beg you to show mercy and spare us!" "Oh, you don't know that?" The voice was so cold like the God of Death from heaven. Bang! A beautiful, undressed woman was thrown in front of Madam Yang. It was the most beautiful girl in Spring Breeze, Miss Linglong, also known as Fairy in Painting. "Madam Yang, help me! Help me..." "You, weren't you just..." Madam Yang thought for a moment, and got it. Linglong, as the number one, was always proud and arrogant. Now she knew that Shuo Ling was here. Of course, she would try best to climb onto his bed. Shuo Ling sneered, "What else will you say?" Madam Yang kowtowed as hard as she could, "Your Lordship, Your Lordship! Although Spring Breeze is a shameful place, we all stick to our own duty, and have never crossed the line!" "Today Linglong just lost her mind. I'll send her to the nunnery to be a nun tomorrow and won't allow her to bear such a thought anymore. We have offended you by accident, Your Lordship! I only ask your mercy to spare our cheap lives!" Madam Yang felt very scared in fact though she said so, and she did not know what Yang Zijin did to Shuo Ling. She just wished Zijin had run away. The others also joined in kowtow. The hall rang loudly, as if it hadn’t been heads that hit the ground, but a group of blacksmiths making iron. There was no trace of emotion in Shuo Ling's eyes. He raised the sword in his hand and pierced it into Linglong's chest without hesitation. Puff... The warm blood was spattered all over Madam Yang. "Where is she?" Madam Yang trembled. “Is he looking for Zijin?” she thought. She bit her lower lip tightly, and just kept kowtowing for mercy mechanically. Shuo Ling glanced around, carrying the sword, and walked to Madam Yang. "Stop!" Yang Zijin shouted quickly, rushing in with a pot of wine. But looking at the situation in the hall, she could not help standing still. After a pause, she rushed to stand in front of Madam Yang, staring at Shuo Ling bravely and perversely. At this moment, there was a bruise on Shuo Ling's forehead, which was obviously the one she had bumped. But Linglong... As a man, he spent a good night with the most precious Linglong in Spring Breeze. It was not too bad, right? But was it necessary that he killed her afterwards to get it over??
