Abandoned Woman Busy Farming

Chapter 2324: Chapter 2323: Moving Out of the Inn

Jiang Yichun snorted arrogantly, saying, ”You can’t do this anymore. When other women think about me, you have to protect me behind you, or I’ll take it out on you.”

As he spoke, he ground his teeth. The emphasis with hidden meaning in his words sounded somewhat indecent.

Even Tang Feng couldn’t help but turn his face away. Seriously, is it really okay to torture us single dogs like this?

Bai Ruozhu noticed everyone avoiding her. She awkwardly glared at Jiang Yichun and quickly changed the subject.

”Tang Feng, hasn’t Ma Feicui bullied men and women alike?” She coughed and asked.

”Because everyone fears the Ma Family, they’re afraid to tell me much. I’ve only heard about her forcefully taking handsome young men from civilian families, but I have no proof, haven’t witnessed it myself, and haven’t even seen her, so I can’t do anything.” Tang Feng sighed helplessly.

”Gather some information. From this, we can bring Ma Tongrui down. Failing to discipline one’s daughter, indulging her crimes, that’s enough to convict Ma Tongrui. Ma Tongfang is too far away, so we can’t do anything about him for now. Let’s dismantle the Ma Family’s faction first,” Jiang Yichun said.

Bai Ruozhu agreed, ”Now, the Ma Family’s situation clearly shows they’re local bullies. If they continue to stay here, they’ll eventually invade the Capital City. And Ma Feicui, why does the Ma Family produce such characters? Truly, when the upper beam is crooked, the lower beam becomes slanted!”

”Stop talking, someone’s here again.” Jiang Yichun’s voice suddenly sounded. Looking at his expression, it was clear he wasn’t in a good mood.

Bai Ruozhu was speaking angrily and hadn’t noticed the outside commotion. Indeed, someone had arrived, carrying a heavy scent of powder, the best from Yuepinzhai in the Capital, yet any good powder used excessively is nauseating.

”Lord Jiang, are you awake? My father sent me to deliver an invitation to you.” Sure enough, Ma Feicui’s voice sounded from outside the door. She knocked on the guest room’s door, the knocking loud enough to wake even those who were still asleep.

Bai Ruozhu signaled Jianqi with a glance, meaning for him to keep her outside. Jianqi quickly glanced at Yizi, displaying an unwilling expression.

Fortunately, he never disobeyed Bai Ruozhu’s intentions and stepped out of the room.

Bai Ruozhu shook her head in secret, thinking Jianqi had always disliked doing this kind of thing. Now, it’s even worse; facing a woman with a bad reputation, he’s afraid it might affect his own good name.

She suddenly missed Muyu’s amusing antics. If he were here, they wouldn’t have to worry about who to send for such matters.

”My master is resting. Just give me the invitation.” Jianqi said coldly.

Ma Feicui glanced at Jianqi several times, although not as good-looking as Jiang Yichun, his physique wasn’t bad and he seemed quite strong.

”Then I’ll wait outside until they wake up and see me.” Ma Feicui said, staring at Jianqi with a half-smile.

Jianqi felt goosebumps all over, ”Do as you please!”

He finished and fled back into the room, quickly bolting the door.

Bai Ruozhu almost laughed out loud, but they couldn’t just stop talking because of Ma Feicui outside, right? Why should they fear such a woman?

Jiang Yichun’s eyes showed evil energy as he raised his hand in a throat-slitting gesture, startling Bai Ruozhu. Was he really thinking of killing her?

Before she could react, Jiang Yichun quickly covered his face with a veil and jumped out the window.

Everyone was stunned. He started so swiftly?

Soon, Jiang Yichun’s figure appeared outside, and before Ma Feicui could make out the situation, she was knocked unconscious by a swift chop to the neck.

Jiang Yichun walked back inside, tore off the veil, and said, ”Let’s go, change inns to avoid this woman’s constant disturbance. I’m afraid I’ll lose control and kill her.”

Bai Ruozhu’s mouth twitched. So the throat-slitting gesture was just knocking Ma Feicui unconscious, not actually killing her.

”She probably learned I was coming and followed immediately. Next time, I’ll be careful. You all avoid the front entrance, considering she’s alone, there’s likely guards waiting outside too.” Tang Feng said.

Bai Ruozhu and the others quickly packed up and jumped out the inn’s backyard, slipping away through the nearby alleys.

Soon, the group changed to another inn, slightly remote and quite old, conveniently located near the Luo Family’s area.

Bai Ruozhu thought Ma Feicui wouldn’t expect them staying here. She told Jianqi, ”Go find Qiu Zhi, don’t let that little Daoist return to the inn and get captured by a female thug.”

Jianqi left in big strides, and Bai Ruozhu and the others discussed for a while longer before Tang Feng left to take care of business.

”Later, I plan to make another visit. I have a feeling we haven’t discovered everything; something is bound to show up soon.” Bai Ruozhu said to Jiang Yichun.

”I’ll go with you.” Jiang Yichun said.

To their surprise, when night fell, Jianqi and Qiu Zhi still hadn’t returned. Bai Ruozhu and Jiang Yichun had a simple dinner with Yizi then arranged for her to set up formations in the inn before heading out to find them.

Bai Ruozhu thought the two might have been caught in the illusory realm again, ”It’s confirmed that when the Luo Family sleeps, people around easily enter the illusory realm. She might not only sleep at night but also rest during the day, trapping them this way.”

”What if she sleeps continuously, and we can’t get out?” Jiang Yichun asked.

”No one sleeps continuously like that, or else...” Bai Ruozhu was about to say they would die, but thought of coma patients she had seen before; they are patients in perpetual sleep.

She was worried, but if she were to give up now without uncovering the truth, she wouldn’t be satisfied, and she couldn’t abandon Jianqi and Qiu Zhi.

”How about we tie some ropes to my waist? I’ll go in alone. If I can’t get out for too long, you can pull me out with the rope.” Bai Ruozhu suggested.

Jiang Yichun’s face turned dark, ”Pulling you out with a rope would ruin your skin and face! Plus, the path isn’t straight. What if you crash into a corner?”

”It’s better than an accident. In the illusory realm, I can’t enter the space, and if she never wakes, I really have no way out.” Bai Ruozhu said worriedly.

”I’ll go borrow Gao De’s Golden Buddha!” Jiang Yichun said.

”Then I’ll go into the illusory realm first. If I’m not out by noon tomorrow, you borrow Gao De’s Golden Buddha.” Bai Ruozhu said firmly.

Jiang Yichun frowned, ”No, you can’t go alone!”

He held her hand tightly, implying he wouldn’t let go no matter what. Bai Ruozhu smiled bitterly but suddenly noticed the scenery on both sides changing!

”This is bad...”

Before she finished speaking, she had entered the illusory realm.
