Chapter 33 Remove the mill and kill the donkey
"You kill me, I deserve it, but I want to tell you that the young master is not dead, he just..." Fang Yuan didn't intend to tell the secret, but after seeing the two of them, he suddenly changed his mind.
"Brother, don't believe him. Someone saw the young master die with his own eyes and didn't even breathe at all. This boy is lying!" Yuwu was so angry that he waved his knife and cut it. He was stopped by Yuwen's knife, and the blades made a harsh sound.
"I gave the young master Yuanxi pills, and my heartbeat and breathing were all in an hour, which was the same as the dead, but as long as an hour passed, he would come back to life. Now the young master should have woke up," Fang Yuan said, but calmed down. On the contrary, there will be a death in his life. Maybe this knife will no longer have to suffer the labor of this life. Bitter.
"I was going to take this secret to the grave, but the young master was really unwilling to be framed by a traitor like this. The young master once said that Yuwen Yuwu is a rare affectionate and righteous brother in the world, so today I believe in you two and tell you about this matter. Mrs. Lin can treat me like this today. Who knows if you will kill the donkey when you run out in the future! I just hope that you two will have the opportunity to avenge the young master and return Lin's family property to the young master as soon as possible!"
Fang Yuan took out a paper bag from the cuff. "This is the poison that Mrs. Lin asked me to put in the young master's meal that day, which was secretly hidden by me. Whether you believe it or not, it's enough for Fang Yuan to have a clear conscience! Unfortunately, my father and mother don't know where the soul is now..."
Yuwen Yuwu looked at the medicine bag in Fang Yuan's hand and looked at each other, and finally put down the big knife in his hand and bowed deeply to Fang Yuan. "Brother Fang, please forgive our brother's rudeness, but can you please tell us everything in the dungeon in detail?"
On the hill, the wind was strong, and Fang Yuan wiped away the tears on his face, and what happened on that day.
Lin Daimo lay on the grass, quietly waiting for the moment of poison, and finally fell asleep. When I woke up again, it was the third morning. My stomach was already hungry, but the breakfast had never been delivered.
The food in the box had already been removed by the mice. Lin Daimo tried to stand up and walk around in the dungeon, but the chain on his feet was still worn and painful.
The two mice squeaked in the dungeon and ran to Lin Daimo. They were so scared that he suddenly sat up. The two mice were frightened, and the girl hid back to the old nest and did not dare to come out for a long time. People are afraid of mice, but rats are afraid of people. Lin Dai couldn't help laughing when he thought of the appearance of the big turtle.
At noon, Fang Yuan hurriedly came with the lunch box. Seeing that Lin Daimo was much better, he was relieved and put the food box aside. Seeing Lin Daimo approaching, Fang Yuan took out a paper bag from his arms, which was wrapped in a pill.
"Young master, this is a Yuanxi pill. After eating it, the heartbeat and breathing will stop within an hour, just like death, but the breath of life will be restored after an hour." Fang Yuan came to Lin Daimo's ear and whispered. Lin Daimo stiffened his face and moved away a little, intending to leave a distance with Fang Yuan.
"Why?" Lin Daimo looked at the man who had lived together for more than ten years in disbelief. The two grew up studying together and were like brothers, but now they want to send him to hell with their own hands. Lin Daimo didn't want to believe it, let alone believe it!
"Madam is willing to kill you. If her purpose for you to come back has been achieved, she will find ways to get rid of you, but she doesn't want to be seen as being killed. Mrs. Lin is really vicious. She wants to put poison into your meal. Fang Yuan can't do it, so she can only hide it for a while. Now the only way to come up with is to fake death. Only by convincing your wife that you are dead will she continue to struggle. The square nose was red, and the lowered voice showed a trace of hoarseness.
"What is the purpose of her want me to come back?"
"Only when you personally say that you don't want the property of the Lin family will your wife be relieved. Now the third master is so angry that he has fallen ill because he heard your words. He hasn't been able to get out of bed for several days, and he also said that he will never pay attention to your affairs from now on..." Fang Yuan hesitated for a while and added, "Young master, Mrs. Lin seems I also signed a contract with you, but when you were in a coma, I heard that you were asked to give all the property of the Lin family to the second young master.
From beginning to end, it was for the damn family property. Lin Daimo had a headache when he heard it. "I never thought of getting anything from the Lin family. I didn't expect that this woman would kill me again and again for a little family property! Just now you said third uncle, I haven't met him yet. How can he hear..."
Lin Daimo's head buzzed, "The third uncle has always treated me like a biological son, but that woman set up a full set of three or two sentences for me to jump in. Really, alas!"
There was a chain sound from the door of the dungeon. Fang Yuan stuffed the pill into Lin Daimo's hand. "Time is coming, young master, you must live a good life after you go out. Don't come back to the Lin family again!"
There was a sound of footsteps at the door, and someone asked loudly, "Kid, why did you deliver food for so long!"
"Brother Lao bothered, I'm going out," Fang Yuan responded loudly, throwing a piece of steamed bread into the corner, poured half a plate of vegetables on the ground, put it in front of Lin Daimo, and nodded solemnly.
The footsteps paused for a moment and walked in again. Lin Daimo gritted his teeth and swallowed the pill.
After a few breaths, I heard Fang Yuan's frightened shouting, "No, the young master's old illness has relapsed. Come on!" After saying that, he hurried out, and the man who was walking inside heard the shouts and pulled Fang Yuan.
"Bad boy, what are you shouting about? The young master is just a recurrence of the old disease, and it's not the past. Just ask a man to treat him later," the jailer pulled Fang Yuan back and went all the way to the place where Lin Daimo was imprisoned.
The dishes and steamed buns were placed in a mess on the ground, while Lin Daimo lay silently. The jailer shouted a few times but did not answer. He opened the lock and found that Lin Daimo had lost his breath, so he ran out in panic.
I just ran out of the dungeon and saw stewer Zhang going to the backyard. The jailer was so panicked that he had no idea. He ran over and pulled the stew manager Zhang to kneel on the ground and begged for mercy. Zhang took up the jailer and asked what was going on. Then he learned the news of the young master's death from the jailer's stuttering words.
The jailer was so scared that his legs were weak, for fear that the death of the young master would be involved in his own young man.
steward Zhang sums up and ordered a few words to find two large wooden barrels with slop water, stuffing Lin Daimo into one of them, and the other casually filled some slop water and pulled them out of the back door with a carriage. I told Fang Yuan to follow him all the way, and then he was relieved.
The scared jailer only needed to be slightly scared, but he still stayed in front of the dungeon as usual and sent food in on time, as if Lin Daimo was still locked in it.
The driver who delivers squat raises a few pigs in a relative's house in the countryside. Every day, the squat is sent to this relative. Every New Year's holiday, he has to take out some pork to honor the Lin family. He also has some friendship.
On this day, the driver still transported the scalded water out of the city. Seeing that Fang Yuan also followed him, he happily drank a pot of wine on the road. The two drank as they walked. Fang Yuan took advantage of the opportunity to drink a few more. Unexpectedly, the old man was very drunk, and half a pot of wine lay directly on the board and fell asleep.
There was no one around. Fang Yuan hurried to the back of the car, moved the wooden barrel down hard, and dragged Lin Daimo out of the barrel until it was far away from the road.
I sent the smoky to the countryside according to the plan before returning to the Lin family, but I didn't expect that what was waiting for me was Mrs. Lin's long-hiding murder!
After listening to this, Yuwen Yuwu pierced the big knife in his hand into the hard surface and bowed his knees to Fang Yuan and said, "Today, my brother was reckless and almost killed Brother Fang. Brother Fang saved Master Mo's life today. The two brothers are very grateful, but the young master is still missing. Yu is really worried.
"He lived in a small mountain village outside the city that day, and I put him in a field not far from the village. If there is no accident, the young master will be able to return safely to his home in the mountain village." Fang Yuan hurriedly helped the two brothers up, but he still felt a little guilty. "To be honest, if it hadn't been for my intention to find the young master back, the young master would not have fallen into Mrs. Lin's hands again. I'm really sorry for the young master!"
"Don't do this. Brother Fang doesn't want the young master to suffer, but the Lin family has already known the mountain village where Master Mo lives. Aren't you afraid that the Lin family will look for it again?" Yuwen has always been calm, which is a little wiser than Yuwu's impulse.
"The Lin family has always been proud, especially Mrs. Lin, who has never done anything. With her nature, it is impossible to doubt the death of the young master. The mountain villager where the young master is located is simple. If the Lin family dares to find trouble, the villagers will not sit idly by. In this way, the most dangerous place is the safest place. Fang Yuan explained it in detail, and it makes some sense to think about it carefully.
The Yu brothers naturally know Mrs. Lin's nature, but they also agree with each other's round ideas.
"On that day, when the young master heard the news of Mrs. Lin's serious illness, he hurried back, but the lady... Alas, it was a waste of the young master's filial piety!" Fang Yuan was heartbroken. He thought that Mrs. Lin threatened her parents and ordered herself to poison the young master's meals, but now her parents are still missing. She gritted her teeth and said angrily, "As soon as the master passed away, Mrs. Lin's hypocritical face appeared, and she drove the young master out of the house that night. Unfortunately, I was still in Kyoto that day. Failure to accompany the young master has made the young master suffer so much!"
"Master Mo treated our two brothers with great kindness. At the beginning, the officers and soldiers killed my parents. If it hadn't been for Master Mo's rescue, we would have been lonely ghosts. How could there be today! Mrs. Lin is so vicious that she put Master Mo to death. This revenge will not be revenged, and our brother vows not to be a human being!" Yuwen, who had been calm for a long time, finally broke out and said firmly, while Yuwu beside him kept nodding firmly.
