Chapter 553 Who Set the Fire
In order to verify what she thought in her heart, Li Meier stopped being polite to the maid, and directly took out a small dagger from her sleeve, put it on her neck, and asked fiercely: "Say! What is the fire outside the Zen courtyard?" Didn't you let it go?"

Jiang Shanqing was worried about her and gave her this dagger for self-defense. It was so small that it could be tied directly into the cuff, so it was impossible to tell that there was such a murder weapon hidden on her body.

The servant girl obviously didn't expect Li Meier to be so cruel, she would use the knife at the slightest disagreement, and the blade was sharp, it was coldly attached to her skin, and there were already blood oozing out.

She didn't dare to move at once, her face was pale, she couldn't make a sound, and her legs were trembling uncontrollably.

In order to intimidate the servant girl even more, Li Meier kicked her on the knee, making her kneel on the muddy ground.

The servant girl's face turned from white to green in an instant, and the expression on her face became extremely terrified, and the emotion in her eyes changed from fear to pleading.

Li Mei'er knew that she had frightened the servant girl, so she moved the dagger away a little, but still asked in a cold tone: "Answer my question, my patience is not that good!"

How could the maid not dare to say anything, she quickly said in a hoarse voice: "You let me go, it's none of my business, it's my lady who asked me to do this, it's none of my business, as a slave, I just obey orders , I... I don't want to either!"

Although Li Mei'er had guessed it long ago, but now that this maid said it herself, she still felt chills in her heart. People's hearts are really ugly. People who have no grievances or hatred against themselves can do such vicious tricks. Lu Zhiwei... Do you want her life?
Seeing Li Meier's expression, the servant girl was afraid that she would strangle herself to death, so she said: "Miss Li, I know our girl is sorry for you, but you are fine now, but now she is being restrained by those thieves. Well, it’s been rewarded.”

Hearing this, Li Meier temporarily suppressed the anger in her heart, and asked coldly, "What's the matter with those thieves?"

The servant girl didn't reply immediately, her pitiful appearance seemed to want Li Meier to let her go first.

Li Meier sneered, pulled off the skirt from her body, bound her hands and feet, threw it on the ground, and asked, "Say it quickly, don't be silly, or it won't be as simple as tying you up."

The servant girl had just seen Li Meier's ruthless methods, and she didn't dare to take any chances, so she quickly said, "When I went back to look for my lady after setting off the fire, I happened to see a few thieves who injured the people on the side of the monastery. Little master, I was terrified at the time, so I hid in the corner and didn't make a sound. When the thieves left, I thought of going to inform the ladies, but it seemed that the thieves were going to the place where the girls were. I was afraid After being discovered by them, I thought about going to the front to find the master in the temple to save people, so I ran into the bamboo forest in a panic."

"Can you see where those thieves went?" Li Meier frowned and continued to ask.She was very worried about Sun Xiaowu at the moment. If those thieves really caught Sun Xiaowu and did something to her, the consequences would be disastrous.

"They went towards the direction of the hut, Miss Li, just let me go, I must quickly find someone to save my girl." The servant girl pleaded with Li Meier with a tear in her voice.

Li Meier had no intention of letting this maid go, she was the accomplice who almost caused her and Baozi to die in the sea of ​​fire, she is not the kind of virgin who repays evil with kindness in everything.A tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye is her policy.

"You just stay here and reflect on yourself. By the time you save someone, your young lady may have died long ago." Li Meier said coldly, took the handkerchief from the maidservant's body to gag her mouth, and directly tied her up. Arrived at the tree, then quickly returned, ready to save Sun Xiaowu first.

Li Meier probably knew the location of the hut, so she walked carefully through the bamboo forest to get there, then hid in the dark to observe.

Outside the meditation room opposite the hut, there was a masked man guarding the door.

Seeing that there was only one person, Li Meier let go of half of her hanging heart. He thought that most of these people should have gone to her, and there were only a few people staying here to guard, except for the one guarding outside, the other accomplices They should all be in the meditation room.

How to lure people away?Li Meier frowned, almost biting her fingers in anxiety. After thinking for a long time, she came up with a solution, but if she did that, it would not only attract the thieves on the opposite side, but also very likely attract the thieves who were looking for her. Also lead over.

Li Meier hesitated for a while, but decided to wait, as long as Daylily and other monks from the temple rushed over, Sun Xiaowu and the others should be saved.

But things were far from as optimistic as she thought. She only waited for a while, and then heard a woman's terrified screams from the meditation room opposite.

Li Meier's heart froze, she gritted her teeth, and just about to rush out to save someone, she felt someone grab her from behind, drag her to the ground and squat down.

Li Meier's heart beat like a drum in an instant, and she looked back suddenly, and was surprised to find that the person holding her was Sun Xiaowu.

"You!" Li Meier only had time to say a word, when she saw Sun Xiaowu make a silent gesture, and then pulled her back slowly.

The two walked lightly to the back of the hut, and Sun Xiaowu finally spoke to her, "Sister Mei, it's great that you're fine!"

Li Meier quickly clenched her hand and said in a low voice, "Fortunately, you are fine, I thought you were caught by those people!"

As soon as Sun Xiaowu heard her words, his face became very ugly in an instant, and he said slowly: "The new maids my mother found for me all have some kung fu, and it's all because of those maids who protect me that I can secretly escaped."

Hearing her words, Li Meier was instantly puzzled, and asked with a frown, "Since you have escaped, why are you still here?"

Sun Xiaowu's face turned ugly again, and he said slowly, "Those thieves sent a few not weak people to hide at the entrance of the bamboo forest. Whenever they saw anyone coming, they would kill them immediately. If it wasn't for my luck Well, I just happened to meet them killing people, and I'm afraid they have already caught them by now.

Li Meier's expression changed drastically when she heard this, if it was true what Sun Xiaowu said, the thieves were ambushing at the exit of the bamboo grove, then Baozi would be in danger.

Li Meier's eyes turned red instantly, and she tried her best to calm herself down, no, no, those people probably wouldn't kill Baozi, if their purpose was really to catch her, then they should recognize the maid beside her, as long as they don't If you are stupid, you won't kill a bait that can lure you to show up.
