Chapter 513 – Do you want to die from laughter?
This bead was gifted to the little girl by her royal brother. Why was it here? Xuanyuan Haoyue picked up the bead and asked in an anxious voice, “Who is this?”
The shopkeeper, seeing the cold expression on Xuanyuan Haoyue’s face, was so frightened that he couldn’t say anything. He held his head and hid behind the counter, not daring to move.
Xuanyuan Haoyue asked again, “Where did this come from?”
Hearing Xuanyuan Haoyue’s words, the beggar that had fallen at the feet of the soldiers looked down in panic, not daring to raise his head. Xuanyuan Haoyue shot a glance at the shopkeeper before walking up to the beggar and kicking him, asking in a stern voice, “Is this bead yours?”
The beggar hesitated for a moment before shaking his head and nodding. He replied in confusion, “Sir, this bead belongs to a vile person. This is the family heirloom passed down from my ancestors. ”
“Ha!” A family heirloom? “Tell me, where did this bead come from?”
The Pauper’s eyes flashed. “This really is something passed down from my ancestors.” “Your Lordship, you must trust this lowly person!”
“Crack!”
“Aaaaaaaaaaah!” A miserable cry rang out, coming from the beggar. Xuanyuan Haoyue coldly asked, “Where did you get this bead from?!”
“I will say, I will say, Sir, please let me go first!”
“Ka!”
“Ah!” Another miserable scream rang out, and both of the Pauper’s arms were destroyed. Xuanyuan Haoyue coldly reminded him, “If you don’t say it now, I’ll cripple you right now!”
“I will speak, I will speak.”
The beggar was so scared that his head shrank back. “I picked this up.”
“Where did you pick it up!”
“It’s in the alley at the back gate of Crown Prince Palace.”
Xuanyuan Haoyue was startled for a moment. That little girl had escaped from the hole in the wall in the back courtyard of Crown Prince Palace. It was not surprising that he had thrown the pearl there. Coming back to his senses, he coldly looked at the beggar. Seeing the glint in the beggar’s eyes, as if he was intentionally hiding something, Xuanyuan Haoyue tightened his fist and fiercely threw it at the beggar. Another pig-slaughtering howl rang out. The beggar held his stomach as he raised his head to look at Xuanyuan Haoyue, and painfully said, “Sir, Sir, everything this lowly one says is true. Please, Sir, please let this lowly one go!” He already had no beads. If he brought out the matter about that little girl, not only would he lose money, but if that little girl wasn’t that simple, then he probably wouldn’t be able to leave this pawnshop alive for the rest of his life.
Thinking of this, the beggar gritted his teeth. No matter what, he could not reveal the matter about the little girl.
Seeing that the beggar didn’t intend to speak anymore, Xuanyuan Haoyue ordered the soldiers, “Bring him back to the Crown Prince’s Palace!”
He had no choice, his royal brother had plenty of ways to make him speak!
The beggar thought that it would be safe once he revealed the whereabouts of the pearl. However, he never expected that these people would actually escort him back to the Crown Prince Palace.
The shopkeeper watched the group of people leave. He was so scared that his eyes rolled back as he fell asleep on the counter.
In a deserted ancestral hall at the southernmost part of the Eastern Tomb City, Xiao Chu Qi was lying behind a statue of Buddha in the ancestral hall. Her body was tied up with hemp rope, her eyes were also covered with black bandages, a handkerchief was stuffed into her mouth, and her petite body couldn’t move at all.
Beside her, a young boy about thirteen or fourteen years old, dressed in a shabby beggar’s uniform, was squatting on the Buddha statue. Seeing that Xiao Chu and Qi Qi were moving randomly, the hoarse voice that carried some anger roared:
“If you move again, I’ll sell you out right now!”
He was clearly just a child, but when he spoke, he was exceptionally fierce.
Upon hearing the sound, Xiao Chu Qi was so scared that his back stiffened and he instantly quietened down. When the boy saw that Xiao Chu Qi didn’t move, he frowned and walked in front of him. He lifted his hand to remove the bandages covering his eyes, and because Xiao Chu Qi had been blindfolded for too long, the moment he slowly opened his eyes, he couldn’t help but close them tightly because the light was too strong. Seeing this, the boy got up and squatted in front of Xiao Chu Qi, and said to him:
“As long as you are obedient, my brother will take you to Beiming Nation after he gets the money. When the time comes, I will give you to a rich family, and you will live a better life than you do now. ”
Hearing the boy’s words, Junior Seven slowly raised her head to look at the boy. She wanted to say something, but her mouth was tightly sealed.
After quickly getting used to the light from the outside world, Xiao Chu and Qi looked at the boy with their eyes wide open, constantly shaking their heads and making “wu wu wu” sounds from their throats.
She didn’t want to go to the country of Beiming, she didn’t want to go to a rich family. She wanted to go home. She wanted her mother. Big Brother Che can do it too! She did not want to be sent away.
Because of her fear, tears welled up in Xiao Chu Qi’s eyes. He stared at the boy, afraid that he would send her away.
When Xuanyuan Haoyue brought the beggar back to Crown Prince Palace, Helian Yi and the others had yet to leave the Purple Dawn Hall. Xiao Ce was also there.
Xuanyuan Haoyue brought the beggar directly in front of Xuanyuan Che and handed the jade pearl in his hand to him.
“This is from this beggar. He said he picked it up from an alley in the backyard of Crown Prince Palace. ”
Xuanyuan Che received the jade pearl and sneered in his heart. This jade pearl was indeed given to Xiao Yanyu by him, but he had actually picked it up? A beggar, what was he doing in the backyard of Crown Prince Mansion?
Looking coldly at the beggar, Xuanyuan Che opened his mouth to ask, “Old man, tell me about the origin of these beads. Otherwise, I have thousands of ways to make you speak the truth! ”
It was just one sentence, but it frightened the beggar so much that both his legs gave way and he fell to his knees. “I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you. I’ll tell you everything. Please don’t kill me!”
Just like this, very quickly, Xuanyuan Che managed to find traces of the seventh day. He ordered someone to pass the message to Xiao Ce while he brought Xuanyuan Haoyue to head in the direction of the ancestral hall mentioned by the beggar.
At this time, Xiao Ce, who was in a stalemate with Helian Yi and the others in the Purple Dawn Hall, saw that it was Xuanyuan Che’s man. He hurriedly went forward and asked, “How is it, do you have any leads?”
The person’s cold face did not have a single expression, “Reporting to Crown Prince Your Highness, the person has been found! My Master has ordered this one to come forward and report. ”
Xiao Ce asked anxiously, “Where is he?”
Helian Yi saw that Mo Youyou’s hand was obviously using quite a bit of strength, her large hand tightly wrapped around Mo Youyou’s hand, his eyes telling her not to worry.
The two of them looked at Xiao Ce and heard him say to him, “It’s in that dilapidated ancestral hall south of the Dongling City.”
Right after he finished speaking, Helian Yi brought Mo Youyou and the people from the Dark Night Pavilion to disappear from the Crown Prince Palace.
Xiao Ce didn’t think that Helian Yi’s skills would be so impressive. He could only hope that everything was alright for Little Junior Seven; if not, his gains would not make up for his losses!
At this moment, in the valleys of the Wanzhou Continent, Little Tian Yao was standing next to a stream, holding a handful of stones in his hand. As he threw stones into the lake, he muttered, “Seventh Sister, you’ll definitely be fine! He must return safely! I’ll wait for you! ”
Just as he was done with his work, Qian Bi walked over to the stream with a basket of wild vegetables in her hand. She looked at the worried Skylight and gently caressed his head. “Do you want to start the seventh day?”
