Chapter 835: Running out
The other servants also shouted in unison and made moves.
Armas was fearless and said while parrying: "When I was in the Kingdom of Rest, I learned a lot of martial arts. You are not my opponent!"
A servant shouted: "Don't be arrogant, we will definitely not let you succeed!"
Armas snorted coldly, and his moves suddenly became sharp. The fist wind whistled, and he fell into a fierce melee with his servants.
The two sides were back and forth, and it was difficult to separate for a while. The sound of fists and feet echoed in the quiet courtyard.
After a while, Armas seized a gap and exerted force suddenly, successfully breaking through the many sieges of the servants.
He ran towards the distance like a wild horse that had run away.
The servants chased after him, but Amas was extremely fast. They gradually lost their energy and were getting farther and farther away. In the end, they could only watch Amas' figure disappear into the night.
Armas ran all the way, not daring to stop for a moment, and soon arrived at the gate.
At this time, since the depth of the yard is far away from the gate, the concierge has no idea about the thrilling battle that just happened in the yard.
At this moment, he saw Armas running out quickly with a panic look, and couldn't help but feel very surprised. He scratched his head, walked forward with a puzzled face, and was about to ask: "You are..."
Armas kept walking, and just replied perfunctorily: "If you have something to do, go out."
His eyes wandered and he didn't dare to look at the doorman. His steps became more and more rapid, as if something terrible was chasing him from behind.
The concierge looked at Armas's hurried away back, which was quickly swallowed up by the night.
He was full of doubts and stood there for a while.
This Armas seemed a little mysterious when he came. Now he left in such a panic, which is really unreasonable.
At this moment, several servants ran out quickly. They looked panicked and rushed straight to the doorman, and asked in a hurry: "Where did that person run away just now?"
The concierge was startled by the scene and hurriedly replied, "I'm out, I said there's something wrong."
A servant suddenly became furious and stepped forward to scold the doorman: "Why didn't you stop him? It's so good now that he has caused his wife to jump into the well. What should I do?"
When the doorman heard this, his eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, and he hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"
But those servants didn't have the heart to care about him. They raised their feet anxiously and quickly chased out, shouting while chasing him: "You must find that guy back, you can't let him run away!"
The concierge was left standing there, full of uneasiness and doubt, worried about the sudden change in the mansion.
After a while, the doorman became more and more scared as he thought about it, and his heart was filled with anxiety. The man was brought in by himself. If something really happened, what should I do? How can I bear the responsibility?
He paced back and forth while he was still in the same place, anxious and frightened.
After a while, several servants walked in dejectedly and furiously.
They ran a long way outside, panting, but they didn't catch up with anyone at all, and didn't even see the hair.
The few people didn't even bother to talk to the doorman, and they went into the yard cursing and muttered: "That guy is running fast, don't let us catch him, otherwise he will be nice!"
Seeing this, the concierge did not dare to say anything. He shrank his neck and felt more and more uneasy. He just hoped that this matter would not involve himself too much.
Several servants gathered in the yard, one of which was named Wang Hu.
Wang Hu said to everyone: "Actually, the wife jumped into the well and was probably dead. It's useless for us to stay here. Why don't you go home alone?"
After hearing this, several other servants looked at each other and hesitated for a moment, someone said, "Shouldn't the wife be salvaged? After all, she is also the mistress of this mansion. I'm afraid it's not appropriate to just leave it alone."
Wang Hu snorted coldly and said with disdainful expression: "Do you still remember how your wife treated us before? We were very angry with her at the beginning."
These servants had bullied Linglong before, but later Linglong took office, so naturally he took revenge on us.
Now that she ends up like this, why should she be loyal to Linglong?
After hearing Wang Hu's words, everyone couldn't help but fall into deep thoughts. When they recalled the days that were difficult for Linglong, they gradually felt different thoughts in their hearts.
They only care that Linglong had revenge on them, but completely forgot that they were the first to bully Linglong.
Seeing this, Wang Hu continued to persuade: "So let's leave now. Besides, there is no master in the mansion and no one will pay us any salary. If you continue to waste, let's drink the northwest wind."
When the other people thought about it, they thought it was the same, so everyone started to pack up their own things.
After a while, the gatekeeper saw some people walking out of the mansion with their bags. He was very surprised and hurried forward to stop someone and asked, "What's going on? Where are you going?"
The man glanced at the doorman impatiently and said, "Mrs. I'm dead, why are you still here? That is, you are stupid and you have to stay here. Humph, we don't want to waste time here, we have to find another way out. You, don't be stupid, pack up your bags and leave as soon as possible."
After saying that, he shook the doorman's hand and quickly left without looking back.
After hearing this, the concierge stood there in a daze, feeling mixed in his heart. Looking at the departing figures, he was at a loss for a moment, not knowing where he should go.
But the concierge felt that no matter what, he was always a servant here and had to fulfill his duties. He had to check the situation on the scene. After all, wasn’t it said that the wife had jumped into the well?
So he quickly trotted to the well to see.
After arriving at the well, the gatekeeper shouted loudly toward the well, "Madam, Madam!"
After a while, Linglong's faint voice came from inside: "Hurry up... and save me."
The concierge was overjoyed. It turned out that the wife was not dead. He hurriedly responded: "Madam, don't be anxious. You wait. I'll go find a ladder to save you."
As he said that, he hurriedly turned around and ran to the place where the miscellaneous items were stored in the yard, thinking about saving Linglong as soon as possible, and he didn't care about the servants who had left one after another.
The concierge finally found a ladder and quickly erected the ladder under the well.
At this moment, Linglong was very weak due to the fall. She shouted weakly: "I...I can't get up any longer and I don't have the strength to climb up. Come down and save me."
The concierge couldn't bear to refuse, so he had to grit his teeth and agree, carefully climbing down the well along the ladder, thinking that he would save his wife first.
The concierge reached the bottom and took a lot of effort to support Linglong near the ladder, but it was indeed a bit difficult to climb up.
Linglong gasped weakly and said to him: "Let me find someone to come over, hold the ladder alone, carry me up, that's all."
After hearing this, the concierge was a little embarrassed. He stood there and scratched his head, thinking to himself that the servants in the mansion had almost gone, and I don’t know if there were any other people there.
Linglong was meticulous in her mind, saw his hesitation, smiled bitterly, and asked, "Does many people think I'm dead and they all run away?"
The concierge showed embarrassment and didn't know how to respond, so he just nodded slightly.
Seeing this, Linglong's eyes flashed with loneliness, but she didn't care about emotion. She sighed, her face full of helplessness, and said slowly: "I have taken revenge on them before, and it's normal for them to hate me, just like this, you carry me and go up slowly."
Seeing that there was nothing else, the concierge had to agree, so he bent down, carefully carried Linglong, and began to climb up the ladder.
After climbing a few steps, the concierge said to Linglong: "Madam, why don't you hug me tightly? I'll hold the ladder later, and I may not be able to take care of your body."
Linglong hurriedly hugged him hard, and said weakly but firmly: "Just be careful, let's go up slowly."
The concierge responded, and then grabbed the ladder with all his attention, moving up step by step with difficulty. Skin beads of sweat gradually emerged from his forehead, and he only hoped that Linglong Ping's safety could be sent back to the ground as soon as possible.
After a lot of trouble, the two of them finally arrived at the wellhead.
At this time, the concierge was exhausted and panting, his forehead was covered with beads of sweat the size of beans, and he kept gasping for breath.
Linglong lay weakly on the back of the doorman, slowly raised her head, and looked at the moonlight in the sky. The moonlight was bright and bright, and it was indeed very beautiful.
But at this moment she had no intention of appreciating, but was glad that she had saved her life and kept thinking about what to do next.
Linglong said to the doorman: "You have made great contributions today, and I will never treat you badly."
The concierge hurriedly responded: "Madam, as a servant, I should do all this, how can I get anything to pay back? But now you are injured, so why don't I carry you to the room first, and then I'll invite a doctor to show you."
After hearing this, Linglong couldn't help crying and said in a crying voice: "If all the servants left, there would be few people in this huge mansion, and I would be very scared to stay alone. Hurry up and find Butler Xu, with him here, I can feel more at ease."
The concierge thought for a while and said, "Madam, let's send you back to the room first. Your body can't stand the tossing now."
After hearing this, Linglong smiled bitterly, wiped her tears, and said, "Yes, I'm almost confused. Then go back to the room first, and then make a decision when I get back to the room."
As he said that, he hugged the doorman tightly again, and the doorman slowly walked towards the direction of the room with Linglong on his back.
After entering the room, the concierge gently placed Linglong on the bed, carefully tucked the quilt for her, and then said, "Madam, you rest first, I'll go find Butler Xu now."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out of the room quickly.
The concierge hurried to the place where Butler Xu lived, knocked on the door and shouted a few more times, but the room was quiet and there was no response at all.
He pushed open the door and saw that the room was empty and Butler Xu was not there at all. The doorman felt a little "sudden". It was a bit tricky now. I don't know where Butler Xu went, and how should he explain to his wife. I was a little embarrassed when I stood there.
The concierge was anxious for a moment, so he searched for Butler Xu in the yard. After searching for a while, he finally arrived at the guest room, but saw a door open.
He felt strange in his heart, so he quickly walked in. As soon as he stepped into the door, he suddenly smelled a special smell. The smell had a little bloody smell, which made him feel an ominous premonition.
Immediately afterwards, his eyes swept to the ground and saw blood on the ground. This scene was shocked by him.
He hurriedly looked around and finally found Xu Dabao under the bed. He saw Xu Dabao lying there lifelessly.
The doorman trembled and reached out to explore Xu Dabao's breath. This exploration made him feel like he was struck by lightning. When he learned that Xu Dabao was dead, he was so scared that he trembled all over. Then he could no longer control himself and screamed quickly.
The sound echoed in the quiet yard, particularly harsh.
After screaming, he ran to Linglong's room, shouting, "Madam, it's not good, butler Xu...he's dead!"
He came to Linglong's room panting. Before he could recover, Linglong hurriedly asked, "What's going on? Have you found Butler Xu?"
The concierge gasped heavily, his face turned pale, and he stammered and told him about Xu Dabao's death.
At this moment, Linglong felt like she was touching the lightning, and her whole body suddenly froze, her eyes widened, and her face was full of disbelief.
Immediately afterwards, she felt a stream of blood rushing up to her head, and suddenly she was furious. Her eyes turned dark, her body shook, and she fainted and fell straight back on the bed.
He scared the concierge very much, hurriedly approached and shouted anxiously: "Madam, Madam, wake up!"
The concierge saw Linglong fainting and had no other choice for a moment, so he had to go out and hire a doctor.
But now, the males in the entire mansion have basically been exposed, and the remaining female relatives are just in charge of internal affairs on weekdays, and they are not responsible for such emergencies.
The concierge sighed helplessly, feeling full of worry and anxiety. Then he carefully locked the door of Linglong's room. Thinking that there would be no more accidents, he ran out of the mansion, hoping to invite a doctor as soon as possible to get the wife out of danger.
That night, Xi Yu was lying on the bed toss and turned, and somehow suddenly couldn't fall asleep, and felt like something was hanging on his mind.
He simply stood up, put on his coat, and walked to the study.
After entering the study room, he lit the candlelight, and the dim candlelight swayed gently in the quiet night, reflecting his slightly lonely figure.
He walked to the bookshelf, picked a book casually, sat at the desk, slowly opened the pages, and looked at the book in the faint light, trying to immerse himself in the world of the book, so as to forget the inexplicable thoughts that lingered in his heart and made him unable to fall asleep.
After reading the book for a while, sleepiness gradually came, and he fell asleep.
And that night, he had a very strange dream, and the scene in the dream was indescribable.
He found himself in a wilderness, with weeds everywhere, and the cold wind whistled by, causing rustling sounds.
Linglong ran in panic in front, her hair was messy and her face was full of fear. She ran and shouted "Help". The sound echoed in this empty wilderness, looking particularly helpless.
Behind her, many people were chasing her like a ferocious person, with each showing a ruthless look on her face, as if she was about to swallow Linglong alive.
Seeing this, Xi Yu was anxious and subconsciously wanted to rush over to protect Linglong, but at this time he was frightened to find that his body seemed to be imprisoned by something. No matter how hard he tried or struggled, he could not move.
I could only watch Linglong get farther and farther away from her, and the person chasing her gets closer and closer.
He was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, but he had no choice but to continue to be trapped in this anxiety and helplessness.
After a while, Xi Yu woke up from his dream. His eyes were still a little confused and his mind was not very clear. He couldn't tell whether it was morning or late at night.
He sat on the bed, rubbed his eyes, and calmed down for a while, and then he gradually came back to the smell and found that it was still pitch black outside. It turned out to be late at night.
Recalling the dream just now, he couldn't help but frown, wondering in his heart, thinking that the dream was really strange, how could he dream of such a scene?
Linglong panicked and asked for help in her dream, but she was powerless. What does this mean?
He was puzzled and sat on the bed for a while, and his sleepiness disappeared completely.
At this moment, Xiaohong suddenly ran up in the yard and ran straight towards Xi Yu's room.
When Xi Yu heard the movement, he hurriedly opened the door and asked her with a puzzled look: "What are you doing? You're so anxious."
Xiaohong ran out of breath, and while holding the door frame and calming down, she said, "Looking at that situation, the lady is about to give birth."
When Xi Yu heard this, his face suddenly smiled, his eyes were full of expectations, and he said, "This is really a good thing. But have you hired a peaceful lady in advance recently? You should have arranged everything."
Xiaohong nodded repeatedly and said, "That's true. The mansion has been arranged earlier. But I saw that the lights were on in your room, and thought that you might not have been asleep yet, so I came over to tell you."
Xi Yu smiled and said to Xiaohong, "Just go back, I understand."
Xiaohong responded and turned around and went back.
Xi Yu always had a smile on his lips, and he was so happy that he thought he would be a father again for the second time, and the upcoming new life made him look forward to it.
