Chapter 131: Xu Qianqian’s transformation!
Translator: 549690339
Taking advantage of the night.
Xu Qianqian was still running in the direction of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
!!
How did she survive the fire?
There were no secret passages in her embroidered tower, and no one saved her.
However, there was an underground secret room below her embroidery building, and there was one in her father’s courtyard.
These secret chambers were not for money, but for all kinds of secret documents, accounts, and the like.
Of course, she would not tell Zhang Jin about this secret room.
The purple and rainbow dye formulas that Shen lang gave her were also kept in the secret room.
Xu Qianqian had memorized all the recipes after looking at them. She copied them and did not pay attention to the original recipe that Shen lang gave her. She hated Shen lang so much that she did not want to see anything from him.
Something had happened to the new Silk, and the merchants from the Western regions had suddenly been poisoned.
Of course, this was not poison. However, Xu Qianqian did not know the word ‘allergic’, so she thought it was poison.
After the incident, she fainted.
The first thing she thought of when she woke up was that there must be a problem with Shen Lang’s formula.
Therefore, he quickly went to the secret underground room, opened the box, and took out Shen Lang’s original formula.
In the end, Xu Wanwan saw a few words on the back of the formulas.
Zhang Pu will kill you!
Seeing these words, Xu Qianqian’s hair stood on end. There were clearly no such words before, but now, these words had appeared.
She was a very intelligent woman.
However, she also had a huge limitation.
He worshipped power.
This led to the worship of those with power.
This kind of thinking was very common among businessmen, so she would rather give up everything to marry Zhang Jin.
Yes, this was no longer a woman’s love, but a worship of power!
Seeing these words, Xu Qianqian did not believe that Zhang Pu would kill her. This was because when these Western Region merchants rushed over, Zhang Pu came over to protect her.
She was very smart, but she also had The Blind Side of a woman.
She felt that Shen lang was trying to drive a wedge between them.
What else would a despicable person like Shen lang not do?
However, she still remembered this sentence in her heart.
After that, she made some precautions, such as not eating or drinking anything she liked.
In addition, in the underground secret room, he had prepared a few buckets of water and a lot of food.
After Zhang Pu returned from his father’s place that day, he spoke to Xu Qianqian with a gentleness that he had never shown before.
And he repeated the same sentence several times.
After a good night’s sleep, all the pain would be gone.
At that time, Xu Qianqian’s heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
She vaguely knew that Shen Lang’s reminder was right.
However, he did not expect Zhang Pu to act so quickly, so viciously, and so decisively.
Less than 15 minutes after she sensed the killing intent, he made his move.
Xu Qianqian could not do anything to save herself or her father, Xu Guangyun.
When the fire burned down embroidered tower.
Xu Qianqian’s mournful cries, her struggles, and her banging on the door were all real.
However, she knew that she couldn’t rush out at this time, or she would die without a doubt.
Therefore, the screams that came after were fake, and the silence after the struggle was also fake.
She entered the secret underground room of embroidered tower.
This way, the fire wouldn’t burn.
The entrance to the secret room was under the bed, and it was made of a layer of brick, a layer of stone slab, and a layer of iron plate.
But there were still gaps, and the smoke still seeped into the secret room.
When there was a big fire, the most fatal thing was the thick smoke.
At this time, it was the few buckets of water that she had prepared in advance that saved her life.
She had planned to drink the water and have a lot of food.
She took off her clothes and soaked them in the water, blocking the cracks of the secret room’s entrance.
The fire burned for four hours.
Those were four hours filled with fear and despair.
Almost every quarter of an hour, she had to re-soak these clothes in water to block the gaps.
Moreover, the air in the secret chamber was limited.
At that time, every day felt like a year to her.
The air was getting thinner and thinner, and she didn’t know how many times she felt that she was going to die.
The fire was extinguished.
Because everything that should be burned had been burned.
She still didn’t dare to come out until midnight. She finally came out of the secret chamber after using up all her strength.
Then, he learned that his father, Xu Guangyun, had committed suicide. His entire family had been killed.
All that was left was his grandmother and a younger brother who was not even five years old.
Xu Qianqian soon realized how her grandmother and younger brother managed to survive.
This was because someone had to accept the performance of Zhang Yan and his son. Someone had to be grateful to them, gain sympathy, and take away the hatred toward Shen lang.
The resurrected Xu Qianqian’s mind was completely clear.
She hated herself for being so stupid.
The Xu family was already useless and a burden to Zhang Ji, so there was no point in keeping them.
Break off the engagement?
That would ruin Zhang Pu’s reputation.
There were some things that Zhang Ji did not care about, such as his reputation as a ruthless official.
However, some people still had to care about their reputation, because if the Xu family broke off the engagement when they had no money, it would seem very tasteless.
Therefore, the Xu family should die.
Did Xu Qianqian still hate Shen lang?
Perhaps!
However, the people she hated the most were Zhang Ji, Zhang Jin, and the third was herself.
Shen lang had already warned her, but she still harbored delusions and caused the death of her father and family.
If he had acted immediately after hearing Shen Lang’s warning, he might have had a chance of survival. Perhaps his father and family would not have died.
She would never forgive herself.
Therefore, once she had taken her revenge, she would follow her father and family to the underworld.
She was a weak woman, and it was impossible for her to take revenge alone.
Who else in this world could help her take revenge?
Of course, it was Shen lang!
Without a horse, he could only rely on his own two legs to walk.
They were dozens of miles away from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
Xu Qianqian’s legs were bleeding from the friction.
However, she didn’t seem to feel any pain or fatigue. Instead, she felt the pleasure of self-torture.
I, Xu Qianqian, caused the death of my father and my family. I deserve a painful punishment. I don’t deserve to live comfortably.
It was really strange!
It’s so quiet at night?
There was not a single person on the road.
Furthermore, they did not even see a single candle flame when they passed by the villages.
Of course, she didn’t know that something big was going to happen tonight. All the areas in Xuanwu city, including the towns and villages below, were under curfew.
But this also made it easier for her to move.
They walked for more than two hours.
They finally entered the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s fief, and they were only a few miles away.
Xu Qianqian was slightly relieved.
Everyone knew that the villages and towns in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s fief were the safest.
However, for some reason, the militia and the patrolling cavalry of these villages had disappeared.
She also did not know that the arrival of the Governor-General and the fourth prince had put a lot of pressure on the defense of the palace of the Earl. Most of the troops had been moved to the surroundings of the palace of the Earl, which had weakened the defense of the fiefs below.
She continued to run towards the palace of the Earl.
However, when he passed by a village, he suddenly heard human voices!
At this moment, the dark clouds dispersed and the moon was revealed.
Under the moonlight, Xu Qianqian saw a group of ferocious Pirates poisoning the well water.
No, it wasn’t poison.
Instead, it was a kind of green corpse.
They were trying to create a plague.
This was an inhumane act!
In ancient times, there was no running water, and they had to rely on well water.
Even the entire village had to drink the water from this well.
Once the plague broke out, it was likely that the entire village and town would be wiped out.
Someone was going to kill the palace of the Earl and his people.
Xu Qianqian recognized these people as Pirates because of the tattoos on their bodies and their clothes.
It was late autumn, and they were still wearing revealing leather armor, with their arms exposed.
Moreover, the scimitars on each pirate’s body were different from those on the ground.
These people were the Warriors under the Pirate King, Chou Tianwei, and the Xu family had done business with them.
Everyone in the eastern part of Yue State knew that any stolen goods or things that were not convenient to sell could be traded with Qiu Tianwei.
The scimitars of these Pirates were still stained with blood. It was obvious that they had killed the patrolling Warriors of the palace of the Earl.
“Hurry up, hurry up, there are still five wells left.”
how many people from the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu are going to die? thousands or even tens of thousands of people are going to die.
“The young master is truly vicious.”
“Who asked the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu to marry Jin Mulan to that pretty boy, Shen lang?
Xu Qianqian also felt her scalp go numb. Although she had been enemies with Shen lang before, he was also one of the forces that attacked the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
However, she still had a bottom line.
The Pirates in front of him were worse than beasts.
Xu Qianqian quickly laid in ambush, afraid that she would be discovered by these Pirates.
This was a group of beasts, while she was a beautiful and lonely woman.
Once he fell into the hands of these Pirates, the consequences could be completely imagined. He would be trampled to the point where he would not be able to live or die.
Does Xu Qianqian know martial arts?
Just a little bit.
The only person she could defeat was probably Shen lang.
However, in front of these dozen or so Pirate Warriors, she could be said to be powerless.
However, the moment she squatted down …
He exerted a little force on his feet and instantly broke a piece of dry wood.
“Who is it?”
A dozen Pirates instantly noticed her. They pulled out their scimitars and charged at Xu Qianqian like lightning.
The next second!
Four curved daggers were placed on her neck.
A ball of fire lit up, illuminating her beautiful face and her graceful figure.
The dozen or so ferocious Pirates ‘eyes brightened, and they suddenly found it hard to breathe.
May the sea god bless us.
He had actually sent such a beautiful woman here in the middle of the night.
Let alone a stunning beauty like Xu Qianqian?
Without another word.
The leader of the Pirates said, ” “you guys hold her hands and feet.”
A dozen Pirates glowed with green light and stepped forward to press down on Xu Qianqian’s legs and feet.
Xu Qianqian looked at the ferocious faces of the Pirates, their yellowish-black teeth, and their foul stench.
It was really nauseating.
If he were to let this group of beasts defile him, he would be better off being burned alive.
The current her was really in a state where she could neither live nor die.
“If your young master finds out that you didn’t offer me to him despite meeting such a stunning beauty, what do you think he’ll do to you?” Xu Qianqian said loudly.
The pirate leader couldn’t help but shiver at these words.
The hierarchy of Pirates was very strict and extremely cruel.
When Pirates found treasures, they had to hand them over first, and then the higher-ups would distribute them.
If he found a beauty, he would also have to offer her. If he did not offer it to the young master, the consequences would be very serious.
Last time, a boat master had snatched a beauty, but he didn’t offer her to the young master first. Instead, he kept her in his room.
In the end, he was skinned alive.
The owner’s skin was still floating on the mast.
Just thinking about that scene made him shudder.
“We don’t have to tell the young master,” the pirate leader hissed,”and we’ll kill him after we’re done.”
three of the fifteen Pirates are women, ” Xu Qianqian said. are they willing to take risks with you? ”
The three female pirates took a step back.
Out of jealousy, they didn’t mind watching their companion harm Xu Qianqian.
But to take the risk of angering the young master? Then forget it.
The young master had an obsession with collecting beauties. If he knew that there was once such a beauty that he didn’t want to hand over …
Everyone’s skin would be peeled off.
The dozen or so male Pirates looked at each other.
Anyone would love a beauty, but it wouldn’t be worth it if Yingying lost her life for this.
“I, I’d better offer it to the young master.”
that’s right. We have more than ten people here. If one of us were to report young master, we’ll all be finished.
More and more male Pirates became timid.
The pirate leader unwillingly pulled up his pants and spat to the side.
“Tsk, if I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have met such a beautiful woman.”
let’s go. Leave 10 people to continue feeding the poisoned corpses in the well. I will bring four people to bring this woman to Xuanwu city and give her to the young master.
A moment later!
The Pirates were divided into two groups.
A group of people continued to stay behind to poison each well and create a plague.
The young master, Qiu Xiao, said that he wanted 10000 people to die in the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s territory.
The other five pirates were escorting Xu Qianqian towards Xuanwu city. They wanted to give this unparalleled beauty to Chou Xiao.
……
“Miss, you’ll know what a real man is after you meet our young master.”
Of course, Xu Qianqian knew who Chou Xiao was.
He was also a beast.
If a delicate woman like her fell into his hands, she would really lose half her life. The more beautiful the woman was, the more vicious Chou Xiao would ravage her.
She had to save herself.
otherwise, what awaited her would be an extremely tragic fate.
However, she was surrounded by five pirates, and she was so weak that it was almost impossible for her to escape.
Xu Qianqian, it’s time to test you.
If they could not even escape tonight’s predicament, how could they take revenge on Zhang Ji?
She thought about Shen lang. He was extremely smart, and she soon had an idea.
Suddenly, Xu Qianqian deliberately staggered.
Suddenly, a money bag fell down and gold coins were scattered all over the ground.
There were dozens of them.
The Pirates were dazzled.
The leader of the Pirates stepped forward and snatched the gold coin.
“Who are you? Why do you have so many gold coins?” The pirate leader asked in a hoarse voice, his eyes filled with greed.
Pirates loved beauties, but they loved money the most.
With money, there were all kinds of beauties in the brothel.
Xu Qianqian pretended to be shocked. I … I’m just a woman from an ordinary family. I’m from an ordinary wealthy family.
“What a joke,” the pirate leader sneered.”Why would a woman from an ordinary family bring so much money? Would he run around alone in the middle of the night? Do you know that there’s a curfew tonight?”
“I’m really just a girl from an ordinary family,” Xu Qianqian said.
The pirate leader pulled out his scimitar and placed it on Xu Qianqian’s neck. He said coldly, ” “If you don’t tell the truth, your ears will be cut off.”
Xu Qianqian was trembling in fear. I’m Qianqian. I’m the young lady of the Xu family. I’m xu Qianqian.
nonsense, ” the pirate leader said. Xu Qianqian has already been burned to death. Everyone knows that.
Suddenly, a female pirate at the side looked carefully and said, ” she’s really Xu Qianqian. I’ve seen her before. She’s made many deals with the eldest miss.
The leader of the Pirates was instantly excited.
This woman was actually Xu Qianqian, the extremely wealthy Xu Qianqian?
She didn’t die?
“Xu Qianqian, where are you going in the middle of the night?” The pirate leader’s eyes lit up, and his mind was filled with words like “treasure vault.”
In his opinion, what was Xu Wanwan doing out here at night?
He was definitely doing something shameful.
“Speak!” The pirate leader’s scimitar gently cut Xu Qianqian’s neck, making a small cut.
Xu Qianqian was so scared that she sat on the ground.
“I’m f * cking f * cking f * cking f * cking f * cking f * cking f * cking f * cking f * cking f * ck”
“Speak, or I’ll kill you, I’ll kill you!”
Xu Qianqian said, ” my … My house was occupied by Zhang Jin. He even wanted to burn me to death. I … I went to get some money and then escaped from Yue country.
The pirate leader’s breathing became heavy.
As expected, there was a secret Treasury.
How could a wealthy family like the Xu family not have a secret vault?
“Where’s the secret Treasury? How much money is there?” The leader of the Pirates roared.
“About, about thirty thousand, I can’t remember clearly! Xu Qianqian said, trembling.
30,000 gold coins?
The leader of the Pirates was truly about to suffocate.
They looked at each other.
With this 30000 gold coins, why would they need to serve such a cruel and temperamental young master like Chou Xiao? they could take this money and run far away to another country. They would not be able to spend it all in their entire lives.
30,000 gold coins was a huge sum even if it was split among five people.
Just eating, drinking, and having fun was not enough to last a lifetime.
The few Pirates quickly reached a consensus and nodded to each other.
“Xu Qianqian, take us to the secret vault, or we’ll kill you. We’ll kill you, Qianqian!”
The leader of the Pirates roared.
With this sum of money, he even temporarily forgot about Xu Qianqian’s beauty.
Xu Ke stood up trembling and said, ” “I-I’ll bring you guys to find the money. Will you let me go?”
“Of course,” the pirate leader laughed,”I’ll let you go as long as I get the money.”
How can I let you go? Keep dreaming.
Next, the pirate leader placed his scimitar on Xu Qianqian’s neck and forced her to go to the Treasury.
“I’ll walk until monkey year horse month, then I’ll ride a horse.”
The pirate leader threw Xu Qianqian onto his horse and was about to ride behind her.
no, let that female pirate ride with me. Otherwise, I’d rather die than take you to the secret vault. Xu Qianqian screamed.
The leader of the Pirates was furious.
B * tch, I’ll definitely kill you after I get the money.
A female pirate mounted her horse and hugged Xu Qianqian’s waist. “Lead the way,”
Xu Qianqian shook the reins and galloped towards one of the Xu family’s Secret warehouses.
The female pirate held her scimitar in her hand and said coldly, ” my dear, don’t play any tricks. Otherwise, I’ll cut open your stomach and see if the intestines of you beauties are different from ours.
……
Horse riding was still faster.
An hour later, Xu Qianqian brought the five pirates to the secret underground warehouse.
“I, I lost my key.” Xu Qianqian said, trembling.
The pirate leader didn’t say anything and immediately slashed down.
It took two knives to break the lock.
He pushed the door open and entered the secret underground warehouse.
The group of Pirates charged in.
Sure enough, there were a few boxes inside.
After opening it, there were indeed gold coins inside.
There were hundreds of them.
After collecting the few hundred gold coins, the pirate leader said to Xu Qianqian, ” “Where are the other gold coins? Didn’t you say there were more than 30000?”
Xu Qianqian trembled as she pointed at the biggest cabinet in the secret warehouse. “They’re all inside.”
The leader of the Pirates came to the cabinet and knocked on it.
This cabinet was very thick and sturdy.
And there was no padlock, so it couldn’t be opened at all.
The pirate leader picked up his scimitar and slashed wildly.
He broke two more knives, but he still couldn’t break the lock.
“Boss, cut the cabinet.” A female pirate said.
The pirate leader came to a sudden realization and then raised his scimitar to slash.
“What are you guys still doing? Come and help? Do you think that b * tch can run away under our eyes?” The leader of the Pirates roared.
Indeed, he couldn’t escape.
Then, the five pirates hacked at the cabinet madly.
Xu Wanwan stood there quietly without moving. She put her hands behind her back and picked up the torch on the wall.
Her face was full of fear, but her heart was full of cruelty.
She felt a strong impulse in her heart.
She thought of Shen lang.
Perhaps, Shen lang was this happy when he succeeded in taking revenge on someone. Soon, he was about to succeed. Xu Qianqian was extremely nervous and excited.
“Bang, bang, bang Bang Bang Bang!”
The five pirates continued to hack at the cabinet.
Xu Wanwan inched toward the door.
Finally!
The thick cabinet was broken.
“Bang!”
A loud bang!
Then, a strange liquid suddenly shot out from the cabinet.
It was acid!
It was a terrifying acid.
This was not a secret vault at all, but the place where the Xu family stored sulfuric acid. Because it was too dangerous and would release a poisonous smell, the sulfuric acid warehouse was usually built underground.
Dyeing required sulfuric acid. Sulfuric acid had existed in ancient China for more than a thousand years. It also existed in this world.
There were more than 2000 pounds of sulfuric acid in it, and after a long time of reaction, it had expanded.
Therefore, the pressure was very high.
After the Pirates hacked a hole in the cabinet, the sulfuric acid inside immediately sprayed out wildly.
“Ahoho ahoho”
Although a few Pirates quickly dodged, they were still splashed, and it was in their eyes.
He was directly blinded.
This was not the most terrifying thing.
The most terrifying thing was that sulfuric acid would produce a large amount of hydrogen.
Hydrogen was the most flammable and explosive.
Even though the pirate leader’s eyes were blinded by the corrosion, he still charged toward Xu Qianqian.
b * tch, how dare you harm us! We’ll kill you! We’ll kill you!
Xu Qianqian’s face revealed a cold smile.
He picked up the torch on the wall and threw it over.
Then, she quickly turned around and ran away.
A moment later!
“BOOM!”
The hydrogen that seeped out of the sulfuric acid was instantly ignited by the flame and exploded!
Then, the entire cabinet was blown to pieces.
The 2,000 catties of sulfuric acid inside exploded wildly.
No matter how fast the five pirates were, they could not outrun the explosion.
His entire body was instantly torn apart and corroded.
Before they could even scream, the five evil Pirates died miserably!
……
“BOOM!”
Several explosions came from inside.
The violent explosion directly lifted the ground.
Xu Qianqian’s petite body was directly blown away by the shock wave and she fell to the ground.
She struggled to get up and vomited a mouthful of blood.
However, she was extremely happy.
She had killed someone!
She had escaped with her own intelligence and killed five pirates.
She could deeply feel that she had transformed!
She untied the reins with great difficulty and got on the frightened War Horse. She then galloped towards the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu.
Two hours later!
Xu Qianqian rushed to the manor of the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu on her horse.
At that moment, Governor Zhu Rong, the fourth prince, and the Black Knights had already retreated.
Xu Qianqian was quickly surrounded by the palace of the Earl of Xuanwu’s cavalrymen.
I’m xu Qianqian. Quickly bring me to Shen lang. Hurry, there’s no time!
