Republic of China: Guandong Ginseng King

Chapter 143 Shooting and Injuring

"So, you rode your horse to Maoer Mountain to look for Shaoyang?"

After hearing what Chen Xiuyun said, Liu Dongshan couldn't help but sigh.

What is going on? He was practicing medicine and saving lives, so why was he arrested?
"Not only that, my brother was arrested and thrown into jail, and that evening a man named Jiang came to our house with a few thugs.

He said that if I agreed to be his concubine, he would rescue my parents and brother." Chen Xiuyun shook her head.

At first, she didn't want to find Qu Shaoyang. After all, they were only engaged and had not yet gotten married.

This is the Chen family's business, and it's not a good idea to involve Qu Shaoyang.

At that time, Chen Xiuyun was thinking about waiting for a few more days and waiting for her elder brother to come back to think of a solution.

After all, Chen Yunhan has studied in Kuandian City for many years, so maybe he has some connections. Even if the Chen family goes bankrupt, it would be fine as long as he can rescue his parents and brother.

Unexpectedly, a group of people suddenly broke into the house. The leader was named Jiang, and he was the brother-in-law of Uncle Tong.

This man was very arrogant. He threatened in front of Chen Xiuyun that as long as Chen Xiuyun nodded and agreed to be his concubine, he would release all the Chen family members.

Chen Xiuyun naturally refused, and the group of people actually tried to snatch her away.

Fortunately, Chen Xiuyun has been carrying the revolver with her since the accident, even when she sleeps.

When the group of people started the attack, Chen Xiuyun took the risk and fired directly.

There were six bullets in the revolver, and four were fired.

It’s true that Chen Xiuyun’s shooting skills are quite good. She injured three people with four bullets.

The man named Jiang was the first to be hit, with one bullet in the right leg and one in the right shoulder.

How many ordinary people have ever seen a gun these days? Not to mention a girl who dared to shoot and injure someone.

At that time, all those people were scared silly. Under the threat of the gun in Chen Xiuyun's hand, they supported the man named Jiang and ran away in shame.

Chen Xiuyun shot and injured someone. She knew she had caused trouble and was afraid that people from the county government would come soon.

So he didn't care about anything else and rode Chen Yunzhe's horse and hurried out of the city before the city gate was closed.

After leaving the city, Chen Xiuyun realized that she had nowhere to go.

My parents and second brother are all in prison. I don’t know where my eldest brother is right now, and I guess my relatives can’t be relied upon.

Finally, Chen Xiuyun gritted her teeth and rode straight to Maoer Mountain.

When Qu Shaoyang was at the Chen family, Chen Xiuyun heard how to get to Maoer Mountain. Anyway, you can get there by going up the Yalu River.

So Chen Xiuyun traveled day and night.

At the beginning, we had some dry food, but later we finished it and had no time to buy more, so we went all the way to Maoer Mountain hungry.

After much difficulty, he found Qu Shaoyang, but fainted as soon as they met.

"Why does it sound like something is wrong? I'm afraid your parents have been framed and used as scapegoats?"

After listening to Chen Xiuyun's narration, Qu Shaoyang immediately realized that something was wrong.

There are many secrets in wealthy families. If a concubine becomes pregnant, there is no guarantee that the mistress of the house is not behind it. In the end, the crime is put on the doctor and the midwife.

Qu Shaoyang had noticed before that the Chen family was honest and straightforward, and did not have many scheming minds.

It's okay in a small place like Daqinggou, where everyone is from the same hometown, with friendships that span several lifetimes, and there's not so much intrigue.

But when you arrive in the city, you're unfamiliar with the place, the environment is complicated, and there are many powerful people. If you're not careful, you can easily offend people.

After hearing this, Chen Xiuyun and Liu Dongshan were both stunned.

Lin Ruolan clapped her hands, "Oh, it's really possible. I know about the Tong family in Kuandian. The wife of his master is a girl from the Jiang family compound in Kuandian.

Speaking of which, the Jiang Family Courtyard is also well-known. Everyone in Kuandian knows that the Jiang Family Courtyard specializes in producing girls with both talent and beauty."

Lin Ruolan's previous husband's family was from Phoenix City. Kuandian is not far from Phoenix City and is under the jurisdiction of Phoenix Hall.

The reputation of the Jiang family compound is known to all the surrounding counties.

No one knows what kind of feng shui the Jiang family compound has, but the girls born there are all very smart and beautiful, with both talent and beauty.

It is said that there was a talented woman who could write plum blossom seal characters with both hands and was proficient in all kinds of poetry and songs.

At one time, many wealthy and powerful families vied to propose to her, and she finally married and moved to the capital to become an official's wife.

From then on, the Jiang family compound became famous, and people around were proud to marry a girl from the Jiang family.

But no one knew since when, this girl from the Jiang family seemed to be under a curse. When she was sixteen or seventeen years old, when she was at the prime age of beauty, she suddenly died of an acute illness.

During those years, seven or eight girls died in the Jiang family. They were all just over sixteen years old, the age for marriage.

The wife of the eldest master of the Tong family is the daughter of the eldest wife of the Jiang family. She was engaged to the Tong family since childhood.

When he was seven or eight years old, he was sent to the Tong family to be raised, and finally escaped this disaster.

"Anyway, people are saying privately that this is the retribution for the Jiang family bullying men and women and running rampant in the village."

Finally, Lin Ruolan said this.

After hearing what Lin Ruolan said, Qu Shaoyang and Liu Dongshan both thought of Yu Zhansong.

When I was in the mountain village, I heard people say that Yu Zhansong was the steward of the Jiang family compound in Kuandian, and he helped the Jiang family do many things to bully the people.

"Shaoyang, what are you going to do about this?" Liu Dongshan asked Qu Shaoyang.

Chen Xiuyun is Qu Shaoyang's fiancée, and they are going to get married in autumn. Naturally, the affairs of the Chen family are Qu Shaoyang's affairs.

Now Doctor Chen and his family of three are still in prison. It would be wrong for Qu Shaoyang to sit back and do nothing.

"Master, I think I have to go to Kuandian to find out the situation there and find a way to rescue Xiuyun's parents and second brother."

Qu Shaoyang sighed. After encountering this kind of thing, could he still say he didn't care? What kind of person would he be?
"Then I'll go with you, maybe I can help." Liu Dongshan nodded.

My own disciple is a man who values ​​friendship and loyalty, which is a good thing.

Since his disciple was going to rescue people, he couldn't just stand there and watch, so he simply followed him and thought of a solution together.

There is no time to lose. We still don’t know where Chen Yunhan is. If he shows up rashly, he will probably be thrown into jail as well.

So after discussing it, the master and the disciple decided to pack up and set off immediately, trying to get to Kuandian as soon as possible and find a way to rescue Doctor Chen and his group.

"Master's wife, I'll leave the household to you.

Xiuyun is weak and needs to be nursed back to health for a while. My master and I will be back as soon as possible."

Qu Shaoyang had to ask Lin Ruolan to take good care of Chen Xiuyun.

"Don't worry, you don't have to worry about the family, you just need to be safe.

Bring more money and try to find a way to smooth things over. It’s important to rescue the people first. We can earn money later.”

Lin Ruolan took out all the banknotes in the house and gave them to Qu Shaoyang and the others.

Qu Shaoyang didn't take the banknotes. "Master's Wife, I still have some. You don't need to take so much for now."

This is his own business, why would he ask for his master and mistress's family assets?
