MTL - I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times-Chapter 72 Lingpai

Chapter 72 Spirit Card

 After coming out of the study room, Ling Chu walked absentmindedly.

I am still thinking about Lu Chengliu.

According to the information found by Ning Chuyi and the discussions among the academy students, Lu Chengliu's performance has been far worse than before since he injured his head.

But shopkeeper Chen said that although Lu Chengliu injured his head, he had already recovered. He also guided shopkeeper Chen's son to write an article once.

Shopkeeper Chen's son also won the first grade for this reason, and was highly praised by the master of the academy.

 The students at the academy said that Lu Chengliu injured his hand due to a fall, so his handwriting was much worse than before.

 But while he was outside, he helped shopkeeper Chen copy dozens of books.

It is not surprising to say that Lu Chengliu dresses differently in the academy and outside because of his difficult family background.

But what Lingchu didn't understand was why he lied in front of his master and classmates in the academy?

His head injury has obviously recovered, and his hands are not injured, but he pretends that his grades have declined due to the injury, and his writing is not as good as before.

 What good will this do to him?

Lingchu was really puzzled.

 While she was lost in thought, she was suddenly hit on the shoulder.

Ling Chu came to her senses and found a arrogant man standing in front of her, staring at her sternly.

“Little girl, where are you going? Do you want to go home with your brother and ask him to take good care of you..."

 Looking around, I realized that I had walked into an alley without knowing it.

Ling Chu looked at the ruffian in front of him coldly, "Good dogs don't block the way, get out of the way..."

Not only did the man not move away, he even pushed forward and said, "Hey, I didn't expect that she is a fierce little beauty..."

Just as Ling Chu was about to raise her foot and kick her over, a man quickly ran over to block her from behind, "Girl, I'll stop him, you run."

Why does this voice sound familiar?

Ling Chu did not run, but instead walked around him and took two steps forward.

 Looking at the man's face, Ling Chu's face was astonished.

No wonder it sounded familiar, this man turned out to be Lu Chengliu.

"I advise you to mind your own business, otherwise don't blame me for being rude." The ruffian pulled out a short stick from his body and pointed at Lu Chengliu viciously.

Even though he was nervous, Lu Chengliu still stood in front of Ling Chu and whispered, "Girl, leave quickly."

Although his voice was low, the ruffian heard it, and with a wave of his hand, he hit him with the stick.

Lu Chengliu was afraid, but he didn't hide or dodge.

Lingchu had no choice but to pull him aside. When the stick was swung down, he turned sideways, raised his foot, and quickly kicked the gangster's wrist.

The ruffian's wrist hurt, and the stick fell to the ground with a clang.

While he was covering his wrist, Ling Chu quickly picked up the short stick and hit him without saying a word.

That person didn't expect that she looked so weak, but she struck without mercy. His face changed with fear, and he turned around and ran away quickly.

Ling Chu felt regretful and threw away the short stick and thanked Lu Chengliu, "Thank you, Mr. Lu."

 In his panic just now, Lu Chengliu didn't pay attention to who he was helping. Now that I saw her face clearly, I was surprised to find that she was the girl I met by chance in the bookshop.

Hearing Ling Chu thank him, he smiled bitterly and said, "Girl, there is no need to thank you. I didn't help you."

He also didn't expect that this girl was so brave and could beat the ruffian away by himself without him taking action. Lu Chengliu picked up the bundle of firewood he had just thrown down on his back and said to Ling Chu, "Girl, you'd better go home quickly. This alley is relatively remote and not very safe. I don't know if the person just now will come back."

Ling Chu frowned and looked at the large bundle of firewood he carried on his back. Lu Chengliu's home was not close to here, so why did he come all the way here to buy firewood?

Seeing that he was still bending down to pick up the rice bag and basket of vegetables that were thrown on the ground, Ling Chu stepped forward and said, "Let me get it for you."

In any case, this man just stood up to protect her regardless of his own safety, and his character was not bad.

Lu Chengliu shook his head hurriedly, "No, my house is right in front. I can just take it back myself. Girl, go home quickly."

Lingchu was surprised. He lived in front?

its not right.

From the address that Mr. Ning found, he clearly lives on Qingshi Street, five streets away from Changfeng Academy, which is half an hour's drive away.

 But Lu Chengliu's expression didn't look like he was lying.

Since there are so many doubts, it is better to take the opportunity to inquire about it, so that the matter of Yu Xiuyue can be resolved as soon as possible.

Lingchu stepped forward quickly and picked up the vegetable basket, "It turns out that you live nearby, so let me help you send this vegetable back. I'm just waiting for the driver to come and pick me up at your house, so as not to run into that ruffian again."

Lu Chengliu felt something was wrong and wanted to refuse, but he was worried that if the gangster came back with someone, this girl might not be able to defeat him.

 He hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

Ling Chu carried the vegetable basket and followed Lu Chengliu through the alley. After turning two corners, he stopped in front of a low and dilapidated house.

The house was unlocked. Lu Chengliu reached out and pushed, and the two narrow wooden doors opened with a creak.

Lu Chengliu asked Ling Chu to come in shyly, and then put the bundle of firewood he was carrying in the yard.

To avoid suspicion, Lu Chengliu left the courtyard door open and did not invite Ling Chu to sit inside the house. Instead, he moved a bench out of the house, placed it in the yard, and then turned back to prepare tea.

Ling Chu took advantage of him to enter the house and released Yu Xiuyue's puppet soul.

She kept the ghost of Yu Xiuyue in a container for a few days, and her consciousness recovered a lot.

Lu Chengliu brought out a bowl of water and said, "Girl, this is cold water. I don't have tea at home, so just drink it."

Lingchu thanked him and took it without drinking it.

 Her eyes had long been attracted by a spiritual tablet placed on the table in the yard.

Seeing Ling Chu staring at the spiritual tablet, Lu Chengliu first took out a handkerchief and wiped the spiritual tablet carefully, then took out an oil paper bag from the vegetable basket, opened it, and placed two meat buns in front of the spiritual tablet.

Lingchu glanced at Yu Xiuyue, who was staring at the tablet, and asked Lu Chengliu, "What is on this tablet..."

Lu Chengliu looked sad when he heard her mention the memorial tablet, "This is my fiancée. Originally, today was her birthday. I promised to cook longevity noodles and buy meat buns for her. It's a pity that she can't eat it now."

Yu Xiuyue's ghost stood aside with an indifferent expression, indifferent to Lu Chengliu's words.

I don’t know what happened between these two people. They were originally an unmarried couple, but now they are separated by yin and yang.

  No matter what the matter is, you must ask clearly before it can be solved.

 Taking advantage of the fact that Yu Xiuyue's ghost was also present, Ling Chu didn't mince words anymore and said directly, "I would like to ask, how did your fiancée die?"

Lu Chengliu clenched his fists tightly and his eyes were red, "She was killed by someone. I am useless. I still can't help her avenge her."

Yu Xiuyue was originally indifferent. When she heard this, she roared angrily, "You lied. I was obviously killed by you, a heartless man..."
