Chapter 29 Will I be struck by lightning?
When Li Xun heard the voice, he felt relieved instantly and quietly retreated to his elder brother's side. Looking at Li Xi, who was covered with whip wounds, he felt a little distressed and a little disappointed. This child, ah!
Tiger and Leopard turned around at the same time when they heard the noise and saw a handsome young man with a child. Tiger was familiar with them and was wondering why they were here when he saw a familiar face following them.
The two were startled and hurried forward to salute, "Master Lin, what brings you here?"
Lin Quan is Lin Haisheng's right-hand man, and everyone outside also respectfully calls him Lord Lin.
Lin Quan frowned, looking at this smoky place, and coughed twice with some dissatisfaction, "I am following the order of the city lord to accompany the young master for a walk. The young master is very interested in the mine, so I came here with him. Ah Bao, what are you doing?"
Brother Bao usually has some friendship with Lin Quan, so he quickly responded with a smile, "It's no big deal. One of my little brothers has offended Ah Hu, so I came to mediate and make peace."
Huo Yuanruo didn't bother to pay attention to them. He couldn't hold back when he saw those people in the crowd.
"Brother Yuanruo, wasn't that the man who came to the inn to help you last time? Is he injured?" Chu Jie recognized Li Xun. Although Li Mulan and the others did not reveal anything to him, he knew that this man must have some relationship with Sister Lan.
Brother Hu's heart skipped a beat. He knew that this kid had some status, but he didn't expect that Lin Quan would accompany him today. What kind of status did Lin Quan have? He was still respectful in front of this kid. This kid must be... He suddenly regretted his recklessness today. He was not afraid of a small Li family, but if this young master was willing to stand up for them, then he...
Huo Yuanruo was already a little anxious, and Xiaojie just handed him a ladder. "Huh? Really. Hey, you, why didn't you come to my place these two days? I was thinking of asking you to help me sort out some things." Then he casually said to Lin Quan beside him, "I didn't expect that there is such a talented person in your small Xiangyun City. His handwriting is better than many talented scholars and beautiful women I have seen before."
Li Xun hurried forward, bowed slightly and saluted, "I'm sorry, young master, I have to go to the mine to work during the day, so... I haven't had the chance to see you yet."
"Oh~" Huo Yuanruo responded nonchalantly, looking at Li Xi lying on the ground with some curiosity, "Who is that boy to you? What happened to him?"
Li Xun knelt down quickly, and Huo Yuanruo was so frightened that he wanted to use his Qinggong to fly away immediately, but thinking of the current situation, he had to hold back, and his voice was a little stammering, "You...you...what are you doing? Hurry up and get up. I hate people with weak knees the most. Why do you kneel down at every turn?"
Oh my God, you are Junior Uncle's second uncle, an elder. If he kneels to me, will I be struck by lightning? Ah... Tathagata Buddha, Guanyin Bodhisattva, and all the gods, I didn't ask this man to kneel, and I didn't want to. Now the situation is forced, gods, please don't take it seriously, and don't let the lightning strike me.
Huo Yuanruo was anxious and frightened at the moment. If his junior uncle knew about it, he would definitely be in trouble.
Li Xun knew what the child was thinking. He wanted to laugh but he held it back. He stood up and said, "It's my nephew who was injured. He was young and ignorant. He offended Brother Hu. I hope you can plead for my Li family and spare the child's life. My Li family will be grateful."
It was Brother Hu again. Huo Yuanruo glared at him, "Wow, Brother Hu, you're an acquaintance. Do you have a grudge against this family? Why do I always see you bullying them?"
Brother Hu's body stiffened, and sweat kept flowing down his forehead. "Young Master, you are joking. How could I have a grudge against such a person? It's all a misunderstanding, haha, a misunderstanding."
"Misunderstanding?" Huo Yuanruo's face darkened. "Did you misunderstand that you beat the kid like this? If we hadn't run into you by chance, would you have planned to beat him to death?"
Brother Hu's face turned pale, and he bowed and apologized, "What are you saying, young master? I, Ah Hu, have been in this mine for many years, and I would never target them for no reason. This..." He gritted his teeth, "It is indeed a misunderstanding."
It is obvious that this young master is trying to help the Li family now. If I don't know the current situation and insist on confronting him, I will be the only one who suffers.
"Why don't you find a doctor? Lin Quan, Lin Quan, although the workers in this mine are all exiled, you can't just take their lives so lightly."
Lin Quan quickly cupped his hands, "Don't worry, young master. I will definitely get to the bottom of this matter."
Huo Yuanruo kicked the stones on the ground angrily and said, "I finally found a smart guy, and I wanted him to come and help me more often in the next few days, but I didn't expect..."
Lin Quan immediately understood the hidden meaning of this, "How difficult is this? It's a blessing for this person to be favored by the young master. I'm asking someone to arrange it. Hey, you!" Lin Quan looked at Brother Hu, "Is this person one of your subordinates?"
“Oh, yes… yes.”
Lin Quan ordered naturally, "He doesn't need to come to the mine to work recently. Let him stay with the young master and serve him."
"Yes, yes, I understand."
"Ahem!" Huo Yuanruo coughed lightly, "Well? Let's not talk about this. My nephew seems to be unconscious. Let's find a doctor right away. He needs to be well taken care of. Hey, look at what you guys have done. Fortunately, I encountered..."
Upon hearing this, Brother Hu immediately responded, "Young master is right, I will have someone send him to the clinic and will make sure he is taken good care of. Young master is really kind-hearted, to be able to..." He wanted to flatter the man, but the other person didn't respond at all. Brother Hu could only shut up awkwardly, cursing the Li family's ancestors for eighteen generations in his heart.
Huo Yuanruo took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and threw it to Li Xun, "This medicine is good. Give your nephew two pills first."
Li Xun took the porcelain bottle and immediately bowed to express his gratitude, "Thank you for your kindness, young master."
Huo Yuanruo couldn't bear to see him like this, and said impatiently, "Hurry to the clinic. Forget about today. From tomorrow on, you will come to the inn to find me. Got it?"
"I understand, thank you, Master."
"Hey! What a crappy place." Then he rubbed Chu Jie's head in anger, "Why do you have to come to this mine? What's so good about it? Let's go, it's really unlucky."
Chu Jie curled his lips helplessly. Did Brother Yuanruo really think he was a fool? He was just a tool. He wanted to come to the mine to see if he could get any information about that person. Now he had to leave right after arriving. He didn't gain anything. He looked at the people from the Li family. He didn't know who they were and what their relationship was with Sister Lan.
Suddenly, something flashed through my mind. Li... They also have the surname Li, could it be... Then I shook my head again, that person was much older than them.
