C26 Revenge First
Article 26. Revenge should be avenged first.
Guu Feng knew all the people from the Chu Mansion, and he was even more familiar with the chief of the Chu Mansion. With just a glance, he could recognize the other party.
Gritting his teeth, he really wanted to rush forward and kill him. Since he had been killed, this fellow would not be able to escape from the blame.
However, if he killed them like this, it would bring him even more trouble. It would also let the Chu family know that he wasn't dead yet. Guu Feng, who was unwilling to die, suddenly relaxed his tightly knitted brows.
"Hmph!"
Guu Feng let out a cold laugh. He narrowed his eyes and took out a few pieces of silver from his bosom.
This guy was the most greedy. He would never let go of a small profit. Although it was only a few pieces of silver, it was enough to lure him over!
With this thought in mind, Guu Feng opened the door of Spiritual Medicine Warehouse a little bit. It was like he was luring a wild beast. He threw a few pieces of silver onto the ground, and each piece of silver extended into Spiritual Medicine Warehouse.
Hiding behind the stone pillar, he weighed the last piece of silver in his hand. With a flick of his finger, the silver flew straight towards the butler of Chu Mansion.
Who cares why he came to the City Lord Mansion? Today, I have met him, and I will use you to vent my anger first!
The silver grain reached out and landed not far away from the steward of Chu Mansion. It made a slight noise and rolled away for some distance before stopping.
The steward of Chu Mansion's eyes were looking around. It was such a magnificent place. If he could stay here, he could do whatever he wanted.
"This can't be gold, can it?"
He rubbed his finger on the pillar that was passing by. He glanced around and saw that there was no one around. Then, he opened his mouth and bit on it.
"Aiyo!"
He let out a cry of pain. His teeth were clenched, but his face was filled with wild joy.
"This pillar is actually made of gold!"
His hands dug around his body, and his two eyes carefully observed his surroundings. He actually wanted to dig out some gold!
It was at this moment that the silver fragment that Guu Feng popped out landed on the ground.
The Chu family's supervisor jumped away as if he had been electrocuted. He stood there without moving. He coughed and pretended to look elsewhere, thinking that someone had come.
He paused for a while before he dared to turn his head to look. It was not a big deal to look at it like that. The piece of silver on the ground that reflected the silver light immediately caught his attention.
"Huh?" He made a sound and quickly swept his gaze around. When he found that there was no one around, in the blink of an eye, the silver fragment on the ground was already in his hand.
His eyes rolled around. Soon, he saw another silver fragment and another silver fragment. These silver fragments added up to a few taels.
A faint smile appeared on his face. The Chu Mansion's housekeeper ran all the way and picked up the pieces one by one.
When he picked up the last piece of silver, his head touched the door of Spiritual Medicine Warehouse. He raised his head and took a look.
"Spiritual Medicine Warehouse?"
"Remember, when you reach the City Lord Mansion, come back immediately after finishing your business. Don't wander around aimlessly. There are many forbidden areas in the City Lord Mansion. No one can save you if you trespass!"
The patriarch's voice seemed to be heard by his ears. It seemed like the Spiritual Medicine Warehouse was mentioned in some of the forbidden areas.
Looking at the half-closed door, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva. It was because there were still a lot of silver fragments on the ground inside the door. These silver fragments were placed together, and they were only three meters away from the door.
Should he take it or not?
He looked around once again and heard the commotion in Spiritual Medicine Warehouse. After confirming that there was no one around, the Chu Mansion's chief rushed in with a big stride. He put away the pieces of silver on the ground and turned his head to run out!
"Bang!"
With a dull sound of impact, the supervisor of Chu Mansion crashed into Guu Feng's body.
With this collision, it was as if the Chu Mansion's chief had crashed into a wall, causing him to fall backwards.
Before he could let out a cry of pain, he heard an angry shout that sounded like thunder.
"How dare you barge into the Spiritual Medicine Warehouse!"
The sound of thunder resounded in his heart. The soul of the Chu Mansion's chief steward was gone. He didn't even dare to look at who it was. He immediately kneeled on the ground and kowtowed.
"Sir, please spare my life! Sir, please spare my life! I just mistakenly entered the Spiritual Medicine Warehouse!"
"Hmph!"
Guu Feng coldly snorted and lifted his foot to step on the back of the Chu family's supervisor.
"Since you know it's the Spiritual Medicine Warehouse, could it be that you're here to steal herbs?"
While speaking, Guu Feng exerted his strength. The Chu family's chief steward let out a miserable cry and fell to the ground.
"Sir, please spare my life. I'm the chief steward of the Chu family. I'm here under the orders of the patriarch to discuss the wedding preparations in the future!"
The Chu family's chief steward was so scared that his face turned pale. The consequences of trespassing into the forbidden area of City Lord Mansion were extremely severe. He wanted to escape punishment by bringing the Chu family out like this.
After all, the daughter of the mayor, Qin Ling, would marry the young master of Chu family, Chu Zhen, soon. The marriage between the two families was imminent, and he was the supervisor of Chu family. This crime of trespassing should be exempt, right?
His back was firmly stepped on, and the supervisor of the Chu family was filled with regret. Why should he covet that little bit of money? He shouldn't have entered the Spiritual Medicine Warehouse.
However, it was already too late. He lay on the ground in fear, not daring to move.
"Hmph! You dare to steal a spirit medicine? Could it be that you think I can spare you?" Guu Feng's eyes were filled with hatred and disdain when he saw the pleading look on the other party's face.
"Since you've caused me to do this, I'll start with you first!"
Resentment filled his heart. A cold light flashed across Guu Feng's eyes. He knew very well how to deal with intruders in Spiritual Medicine Warehouse. Immediately, he stretched out his hand and picked up the chief of Chu family.
With his other hand, he had already prepared a few precious herbs beforehand and stuffed them into the chief steward's arms.
Regarding all of this, the Chu family's chief steward, who was scared out of his wits, didn't notice it at all.
"Someone, someone is trespassing into the Spiritual Medicine Warehouse's forbidden area!"
Guu Feng carried the man and walked out of the gate of Spiritual Medicine Warehouse, then he shouted out loudly.
With such a shout, all the guards of City Lord Mansion in the vicinity rushed over.
"It's him! He broke into the Spiritual Medicine Warehouse!"
Guu Feng pointed at the general manager of the Chu family who was held by his neck.
"No, no, no... It was a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding! I am the chief steward of Chu Mansion, and I am here under the name of the chief... "
The chief steward was about to explain when Guu Feng kicked his lower abdomen, sending the chief steward's body, which weighed more than 160 kilograms, flying four to five meters away.
The chief steward's body fell heavily to the ground. In his arms, a few precious herbs were revealed.
Before he could stuff the herbs back, Guu Feng was already one step ahead of him. After snatching the herbs from him, he raised the herbs in his hands. This is the evidence of your crime. The chief of Chu Mansion has trespassed into the forbidden area of City Lord Mansion. According to the law of the City Lord Mansion, you should be punished with a hundred lashes, and you should be seen as a public figure! "
Those personal guards did not dare to disobey Guu Feng's words.
They knew that Guu Feng was the eldest daughter's man, and now that he had gotten his hands on the stolen goods, the Chu Mansion's chief had to blame himself for this.
"Pa!"
On the street, a carriage was slowly moving forward. On the carriage, the Chu Mansion's chief steward was tied up on a cross to show the public. Besides the chief steward, there was another person on the carriage, Guu Feng, who was wearing a guard uniform.
Guu Feng held a long whip in his hand and whipped the chief steward of the Chu Mansion.
"This person is the supervisor of the Chu Mansion, but he has trespassed into the forbidden area of City Lord Mansion. According to the law set by the master of City Lord Mansion, he will be seen on the street and will be punished with a whip!"
More and more people came to watch the show. Some of them even followed behind the carriage and looked at the chief steward of Chu Mansion, who had been beaten into a bloody mess.
Pah!
Slap!
...
The chief of Chu Mansion could no longer remember how many whips he had been whipped, but he was sure that... From beginning to end, he had been whipped more than a hundred times. Now that he had roughly calculated, there were probably no less than two hundred whips. Moreover, every single whip strike of these two hundred plus whips was extremely heavy.
While his consciousness was blurry, he vaguely felt that this City Lord Mansion guard, who was constantly whipping him with the whip, was... It seemed to be somewhat familiar. Initially, he could not recall, but just as Guu Feng finished saying those words, he suddenly remembered that this guard from the City Lord Mansion whom he was extremely familiar with... Wasn't it the servant who had his innate spiritual root extracted and sent to the Chaotic Burial Mound outside the city, Guu Feng?
"Impossible, Guu Feng is clearly dead!"
