Abandoned by the best children? I just take out the space

Chapter 2045 Cutting Blood

The servant covered his beaten face and knelt down tremblingly. He was angry but could not say anything. He could only beg for mercy: "Please spare my life, sir. I... I don't know either."

"No one came to the study yesterday. Perhaps the lord moved it himself..." Having said this, he didn't dare to say any more. Everyone in the mansion knew that the county magistrate actually had a very bad temper.

I’m afraid that if he’s not careful, he’ll be beaten to death!

Hearing the servant's words, the county magistrate also showed doubt. He lowered his head and wondered what he was thinking. After a moment of silence, he finally did not pursue the servant and just waved his hand: "Go and call the young lady over."

"Yes, my lord."

After receiving the order, the servant almost ran away, fearing that his life would be in danger if he was late for a second.

Soon, Niu Jinzhi came to the study. It seemed that this was not her first time here, and there was a hint of fear in her eyes: "Dad, call me."

"Well, Jinzhi, let's start." The county magistrate threw a dagger, which fell on the table with a clang, and Niu Jinzhi was shocked.

Of course she knew what the county magistrate meant. Thinking of Wan Shufang's words, she subconsciously wanted to refuse: "Dad, can you please not let me bleed?"

Hearing this, the county magistrate narrowed his eyes, as if he was dissatisfied with Niu Jinzhi's disobedience to him, and his tone was also a little cold: "Niu Jinzhi, you are the county magistrate's daughter. Only if I prolong your life can you live a better life. Don't you understand this truth?"

"The prescription that the Blackwater Gang gave me saved my life, so you must do it."

Hearing this, Niu Jinzhi's legs went limp and she collapsed to the ground. Looking at the determination in the county magistrate's eyes, she knew she couldn't escape and could only tremblingly pick up the dagger.

Her thoughts were flooding, and she unconsciously thought of the time before things started...

Back then, the county magistrate was seriously ill and was about to die, but he unexpectedly received a pill from the Black Water Gang. After taking it, his terminal illness was relieved. In order to prolong his life, he did not hesitate to turn his own daughter into a poisonous body.

From then on, he had endless elixirs to eat and dreamed of immortality.

"Hurry up." The county magistrate urged, interrupting Niu Jinzhi's memories. She pursed her lips and exerted force on her hands.

The dagger cut through her flesh, bringing a familiar pain. She frowned and tried to squeeze out half a bowl of blood for him before she was allowed to leave the study.

Holding her aching wrist tightly, Niu Jinzhi returned to her room in tears. She now realized that her father did not love her. She was terrified that one day she would be killed by her father by taking her blood!

In extreme panic, Niu Jinzhi's mentality gradually collapsed, her eyes were red, and she roared: "No, I can't die like this, I want to detoxify, I want to leave this place."

She went crazy and smashed everything in the house. Her hands started bleeding instantly and the pain became even more severe, which made Niu Jinzhi very desperate.

“Ah! It hurts…it hurts so much.”

"Father wants to kill me. You are all crazy. You are all crazy."

As she spoke, she packed her luggage hastily, picked up a small bag and prepared to go out, but she found a little maid standing at the door in a daze, looking at her in disbelief.

"Miss, you..."

She covered her lips, obviously having heard everything.

Seeing this, Niu Jinzhi, who was already upset, became even more annoyed. In a rage, she dragged the maid in, picked up a stool, and smashed it down with a bang!

"Kill you, I will kill you!" Niu Jinzhi thought she had lost face and did not leave the maid any chance to live. She smashed her head hard with a stool.

The little maid had no chance to resist at all. Her head was broken and bleeding in an instant, and she was smashed to death by her.

When he died, his eyes were wide open, full of unwillingness and confusion. The noise here attracted Chen Changli and Wan Shufang. When they ran in, the ground was already covered with blood.

"stop!"

"Niu Jinzhi, killing someone means paying with one's life, what are you doing?"

The two roared and rushed forward to stop it with anger on their faces, but it was too late. The maid had already been smashed to death. Niu Jinzhi, on the other hand, saw Chen Changli and Wan Shufang. She knew their abilities and did not dare to confront them head-on, so she just shrank into the corner.

"It's not me, it's not like that." She held her head in pain, looking crazy. Wan Shufang raised her head, but her eyes were suddenly attracted by her wound.

The wound is still bleeding, on the wrist, it is fresh...

"It seems that the county magistrate is still forcing her..." Wan Shufang thought silently and shook her head at Chen Changli. The little maid was beyond saving. In order to prevent Niu Jinzhi from going crazy and leaving the body dismembered, the two took the little maid away.

After taking the person out and burying him, Wan Shufang returned to the house. She brought back a lot of ancient books and stayed in the room reading them all day.

I soon found out about the technique of taking yang to replenish yin.

"Chen Changli, I found it." Wan Shufang shouted with joy in her eyes, and Chen Changli immediately came over and looked in the direction her finger pointed.

"Ancient books say that if you take Yin to replenish Yang and combine it with a deadly poison, you can make Black Water Pills. This Black Water Pill can prolong the life of the person who takes it in the short term, but it will become addictive and gradually make the person lose his mind. No wonder the county magistrate doesn't recognize his relatives."

Wan Shufang curled her lips. Although Niu Jinzhi was not a good person either, at this moment, Wan Shufang felt a little sympathy for her. Being used by her own father like this, she would only be a medicine inducer all the year round.

At this moment, Chen Changli had also finished reading the contents of the book. His expression was solemn, and he had made a decision almost instantly.

"This is a sinister move. The county magistrate cannot stay any longer. We will write a letter back to Yongzhou City to expose this matter and ask His Majesty to send someone to deal with him."

Hearing Chen Changli's words, Wan Shufang nodded in agreement. If the county magistrate was not eliminated, the small town would probably continue to be persecuted.

Exposing the county magistrate was imperative, but they still needed to think long and hard.

The two were thinking about the plan, and when they went out for some fresh air, they found Niu Jinzhi sneaking out of the door.

Chen Changli and Wan Shufang hid behind the rockery until they could no longer see Niu Jinzhi. Then they walked into the yard. Looking at the dark night, Wan Shufang couldn't help but frowned: "Where would Niu Jinzhi go so late at night?"

"She is an important witness now. I'll go over and take a look." Chen Changli said as he was about to leave. Seeing this, Wan Shufang hurriedly followed.

"I'll go as well."

But just as the two men reached the gate of the yard, the county magistrate suddenly appeared and stood in front of them. There was a smile on his face, but that smile was a little creepy.

"Sir, Madam, I have just invited a new opera troupe and would like to invite you two to watch the show." The county magistrate's voice was gentle, but it made Wan Shufang shiver.

She frowned subconsciously, her heart panicked, and she always felt that something was wrong.

But he didn't show it on his face. He smiled and shook his head to decline. "My Lord, it's not a coincidence. We have something else to go out for. We may not be able to watch the song today. I hope you enjoy it."
