Chapter 233 Soaking the Pig Cage

When a pair of sharp claws loosened his spine, he had been smashed to the shore and let out a painful moan.

Covered in blood and embarrassed, he slowly raised his head, looked at the group of people in front of him, and immediately smiled miserably.

Tan Yaoxian exclaimed, "Brother Li!" impulsively.

Shao Liuer quickly blocked him, knowing that such a thing is not something that a stupid man like herself can intervene in, so don't let this stupid man do stupid things again.

After tossing in the water, some of Lu Shengzhong's disguises that simply changed his appearance were lost.

Song Shu's pupils shrank suddenly, and he shouted suddenly: "Lu Shengzhong, is that you?"

He and Wang Heng from the capital of Yan State were relatives, and Lu Shengzhong was originally a person close to Wang Heng, so he knew Lu Shengzhong.

Shao Pingbo, who had recovered from his cough, turned around and asked, "Do you know him?"

Song Shu cupped his hands and said: "My lord, this person is a disciple of Wuliang Mountain. He was Wang Heng's entourage mage, one of the four major commanders in Yanjing. He was ordered by Wang Heng to assassinate Niu Youdao. Not only did he miss, he even betrayed the person sent by the Song family. He killed the son of Liu Lu, the housekeeper of the Song family. I wish I could strip him alive!"

Tan Yaoxian was taken aback when he heard that, are they talking about Brother Li?

Shao Liu'er thought to himself, there really is something wrong with this person!

Su Zhao looked at Shao Liuer and asked, "Liuer, is he alone?"

Shao Liuer: "Cousin, there is also a groom and a boatman. I wonder if they are in the same group."

Shao Pingbo squinted at his sister, turned around and stepped forward, stretched out his foot and slapped Lu Shengzhong's face, "You are not a person with backbone if you can betray Wang Heng. If you don't want to suffer, just tell the truth. Who sent you here?"

Lu Shengzhong laughed miserably, "I don't understand, how could you judge our whereabouts so quickly and come after us?"

"This is not what you should ask." Shao Pingbo put his foot down, and said calmly: "You heard it just now, Song Shu is eager to peel your skin, I think he will treat you well, I just ask you, should I recruit or not?"

Lu Shengzhong shook his head weakly and said, "If the left and the right are dead, do you think I will surrender to the enemy who killed me?"

Shao Pingbo: "That depends on whether you are valuable to me. If so, I will not break my promise in front of so many people. I can promise you in front of everyone that I will not let you suffer and give you a way to survive. If you are not valuable, do you think I don't know who sent you here?"

Lu Shengzhong let out a long sigh, "Niu Youdao, Niu Youdao sent me here."

Shao Pingbo asked: "How many people are here?"

Lu Shengzhong: "It's just me."

Shao Pingbo narrowed his eyes, "You're the only one?" He didn't seem to believe it.

Lu Shengzhong: "Niu Youdao should arrange someone to cooperate with me in the city. As for who it is, I don't know, but I know who to contact. If I follow this line, I should be able to find other people. I wonder if this is of value to Mr. Shao?"

Shao Pingbo's eyes flickered.

Lu Shengzhong said again: "It hurts me to death, I want to heal!"

Shao Pingbo tilted his head to signal, "Heal him."

Immediately someone came over and lifted him aside, gave him medicine and applied it for treatment.

Chen Guishuo occasionally turned his head to look at him, and there was worry in his eyes, worried that Lu Shengzhong's so-called "following the vine" would find him out.

Niu Youdao also gave him instructions to kill Shao Pingbo if he had the chance, but he really couldn't find any chance.

Regardless of his qualifications or his cultivation, Shao Pingbo would never meet him alone. When he met, Shao Pingbo would be protected by someone around him, so he had no chance to attack him at all.

There are also people in this city who cooperate with him. As for who it is, he doesn't know. If the same family as Lu Shengzhong goes online, it will be troublesome.

Tan Yaoxian's face was ugly and he looked lost. No matter how stupid he was, he could understand what Lu Shengzhong said. He didn't come to help him at all. He was used by others to deal with the Shao family...

Shao Pingbo looked back towards his sister and approached slowly.

Shao Liuer was very nervous, and once again opened her arms to protect Tan Yaoxian, and shouted, "Cousin!" It meant asking for help.

Su Zhao was a little confused: "Pingbo!"

Shao Pingbo stopped and stared at the man behind his sister with complicated emotions.

When he first noticed that the relationship between Tan Yaoxian and his sister was abnormal, he wanted to get rid of Tan Yaoxian, but he was afraid of hurting his sister's heart. He clearly remembered the entrustment of his mother before she died.

To be honest, at this age, my younger sister should also get married. It is not appropriate for a woman to delay her until his age. He is also considering his younger sister's choice of spouse. Naturally, he hopes that his younger sister will have a good life, and he wants to find the best and most suitable family for her.

This kind of Tan Yaoxian is not in his consideration at all, the reason is very simple, because it is not suitable!

The younger sister's background is doomed to marry such a person, how many conflicts of interests and grievances are involved behind the Shao family?

He knew what kind of person his younger sister was, and logically speaking, he shouldn't be, so he couldn't figure it out. How could his younger sister like such a pedantic scholar?

As early as when Shao Liuer disbanded the Poetry Club, she was worried that he would poison Tan Yaoxian, and warned him that if he dared to touch Tan Yaoxian, don't blame her for turning his face!

Because of this, Shao Pingbo didn't touch Tan Yaoxian, he just wanted to force Tan Yaoxian to leave by himself, so as not to fall out with his sister.

Of course, there is another reason. If my sister really has to marry this person, what can he do? To a certain extent, Tan Yaoxian's character is nothing to say, and it is not easy for a sister to be wronged when she marries such a person. But he wants to see what Tan Yaoxian's nature is when he faces difficulties, and he wants to see people clearly, so it is impossible for his sister to marry him in a daze.

Who knew that such a thing would happen in a moment of soft-heartedness, he really hates it!

"You really want her body already?" Shao Pingbo stared at Tan Yaoxian and asked.

Tan Yaoxian suddenly looked embarrassed, not knowing how to speak.

Shao Liu'er immediately blocked the words, "So what? I've already said, I won't marry unless he is the one!"

Shao Pingbo ignored her and just stared at Tan Yaoxian, asking for an answer from Tan Yaoxian. He knew Tan Yaoxian and knew that this guy was not a liar. He suspected that his sister was just using this as a shield.

Tan Yaoxian finally worked up his courage, "My lord, I will be responsible for Liu'er."

"Responsible? Haha, mother, have you seen it all? Haha..." Shao Pingbo suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, waving his arms high and facing the sky. There was a bit of desolation in his laughter. The other party undoubtedly admitted the words, and the pain in his heart was indescribable.

It's not because his sister lost his virginity, but because the person he cares about the most, the person he wants to protect the most, turns his back on him at this moment.

What happened to the Shao family, his eldest brother is still in prison, and he doesn't care about his life or death at all. The love between men and women is more important than his elder brother's life. How can he feel that he can leave his elder brother alone and elope with outsiders? Cool!

Shao Liuer gritted her lips, she had never seen her elder brother so wild, and she couldn't bear it.

"Pingbo!" Su Zhao stepped forward to comfort him.

Shao Pingbo waved her away, waved his finger at Tan Yaoxian, and said angrily, "Are you responsible? In this chaotic world, what are you responsible for? Do you know how many people want to put the Shao family to death? Do you know how many people want to arrest her once she leaves the Shao family? You can't stand in a temple, you just shake your head with a book, and you can't go to battle to kill the enemy. You have no strength to restrain a chicken. Can you protect her by teaching a few children to read and write? Self-righteousness can protect her. You are a useless scholar, even if my Shao family wants to help you, I don’t know where to start, tell me, what are you responsible for?”

Tan Yaoxian was short of breath, and his face flushed when he was told.

Shao Liuer hurriedly said, "Brother, he is not as bad as you said."

Shao Pingbo pointed at her immediately, "Then tell me, can you leave the Shao family? You know better than anyone else that once you leave the Shao family, as long as the Shao family ignores you two, you will surely die. It is useless to insist!"

"Liu'er, you should understand that being born in a family like ours, neither you nor I have a choice! It's not that I don't want you to marry him, but that he can't afford that responsibility. It has nothing to do with being poor or rich, but that he doesn't have the qualifications and ability to marry you!"

"Would you like to see your future husband in the Shao's house, but not able to hold his head up? Would you like to see even the servants in the family laughing at your husband for being soft? Are you willing to endure it or is he willing to endure it? If you really want to treat him well, let him go and don't harm him!"

Shao Liu'er didn't know how to argue for a moment, she insisted: "I don't care, I'm already his, I just want to be with him!"

Shao Pingbo laughed back in anger, "I'm willing to die, isn't it?"

Shao Liuer said angrily: "You have the ability to even kill me!"

"Okay! I'll help you all." Shao Pingbo turned back and shouted: "Song Shu, Chen Guishuo, go, and immediately build a pig cage to throw adulterers into Shenjiang!"

Song Shu and Chen Guishuo looked at each other.

Su Zhao hastily persuaded, "Ping Bo, between brothers and sisters, let's talk slowly when we go home."

Shao Pingbo turned around and glared at her, gave her a wink, and at the same time said slowly: "You can get the pig cage within a stick of incense, or I will sink you!"

Su Zhao fell silent.

Song Shu and Chen Guishuo quickly fled away.

It didn't take long for the two of them to get a wooden cage, which was obviously put together from temporarily cut trees without even peeling off the bark.

Under Shao Pingbo's signal, Shao Liu'er and Tan Yaoxian were pushed in, and a few large stones from the sinking river were thrown into it. Song Shu and Chen Guishuo quickly closed the gap in the cage, and drove into wooden dowels to fasten them to death.

"Shao Pingbo, what right do you have to dispose of me? What right do you have to decide my marriage, I want to see my father, I want to see my father..." Shao Liuer yelled wildly in the cage, but she didn't expect her elder brother to be serious.

Tan Yaoxian closed his eyes and burst into tears.

Song Shu and Chen Guishuo had already carried the cage and walked towards the river, and the river water gradually soaked up in the cage.

Shao Pingbo said slowly: "My surname is Tan, as long as you are willing to leave Liu'er, I will let you go. I can save yourself and Liu'er. You can decide for yourself."

"Don't listen to him, I don't believe he dared to kill me!" Shao Liuer replied angrily.

Shao Pingbo tilted his head and signaled: "Put it down!"

Both Song Shu and Chen Guishuo let go of the cage. The cage suddenly sank and was knocked down by the two of them. Immediately, the people in the cage could not be seen by Jiang Mian, only a wooden fence remained.

The surface of the water was bubbling, and soon some hands stretched out the wooden fence, scratching and scratching on the surface of the river.

Tan Yaoxian grabbed the wooden fence on the river with both hands, and half of his face was exposed through the gap in the fence. He coughed, gasped, and cried out in grief: "I'm going! Let her go, let her go, I'll go..."
