Chapter 572 You may also be the murderer!
Baozi was comforted by Jiang Shi for a while, and his heart knot was untied, which was much more useful than Li Meier's comfort.

Li Mei'er thought to herself, Baozi should be worried that her mother would blame her for what happened this time, and sell her again.

Li Meier only felt that Baozi was thinking too much. If something happened to her, it was still possible. Since she was fine, her mother and grandmother were not so cautious.

Mrs. Jiang was talking to her daughter's maid, when Zhou Hanju suddenly noticed the person on Daylily's back, and asked suspiciously, "This is..."

She didn't recognize Ju Rui. After all, Lu Zhiwei had more than one maid, and no one would pay attention to what a maid looked like.

"Oh, this is Lu Zhiwei's maid, who was also taken away by bandits, and we rescued her along the way." Li Meier glanced at Ju Rui who was still in a coma, and said in a slightly cold tone.

"You girl, you are too soft-hearted, you want to save everyone." Jiang said with a sigh again, but she didn't say much, after all, her daughter is fine now, so just save someone.

"Mother, I didn't save this person for nothing, you'll know in a while." Li Meier smiled mysteriously, but there was a bit of coldness in that smile.

Seeing her daughter's expression, Jiang wanted to ask more carefully.Zhou Hanyu spoke again, "Let's go back to the temple first, the mountainside is not safe after all, if you have anything to say, go back to the temple and talk about it."

Mrs. Jiang nodded immediately, "Yes! Your grandmother and Ah Chun are still in the temple, we have to go back and report to them that they are safe. Your grandmother is worried about you, so don't let her worry any more."

Li Meier also nodded, and the group of people quickened their pace and walked towards the mountain.

Two quarters of an hour later, a group of people finally reached the top of the mountain out of breath.

Monk Yuanwen was still waiting there. Seeing a few people coming back, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, clasped his hands together and recited the Buddha's mantra, "Amitabha, the female donors have finally returned. If it is later, the poor monk will go to the temple The brothers and sisters helped."

Jiang looked at Yuan Wen gratefully, and said, "Thank you Master Yuan Wen, thanks to you today, I was able to find my daughter back so quickly."

Yuan Wen glanced at Li Meier and the others beside Mrs. Jiang, his eyes were very gratified, and he recited the Buddha's name again, "Amitabha, the female benefactors are safe and sound, it is really the Buddha's blessing, the benefactors don't need to thank the poor monk, this is all the benefactors themselves The result of hard work."

Mrs. Jiang also followed Yuan Wen to recite a few times, and then took her daughter to prepare to leave the back mountain.

However, Li Meier had a plan in mind early in the morning, and she was not prepared to let everyone leave. She glanced at Baozi and day lilies beside her, and said with a serious expression: "Baozi, take Jurui to rest in the Zen room first, and I will let the temple A master who knows medical skills will help you and Jurui take a look, and when she wakes up, you can bring her to the main hall in front, and I will let daylilies wait for you there."

Naturally, Baozi would not have any objection to Li Meier's arrangement, so he nodded in agreement.

After the buns and jurui were settled, Li Meier and Jiang's Zhou Hanju went to the front hall.

The fire in the bamboo forest has been completely extinguished at this time, and several monks in the temple are cutting down the charred bamboos, leaving only the roots, which will grow again next spring.

Li Meier stopped and looked at the fallen bamboos one after another, thinking that if the bamboos are dead, they will be born again next year, but what about dead people?There is really only a piece of loess left.

"Mei Meier." Seeing that Li Meier suddenly stopped leaving, Mrs. Jiang called her.

Li Meier came back to her senses, answered, and quickly walked out of the bamboo forest with Jiang Shi.

Rewinding the time to half an hour ago, Mrs. Xie hurried back to the front hall, and saw her daughter talking with Lu Zhiwei standing in front of the main hall.

The daughter was obviously very emotional, and there were tears on her face.

Xie's heart suddenly "thumped", and immediately stepped forward quickly, and called out hastily, "Xiao Wu!"

Hearing her mother's voice, Sun Xiaowu immediately looked at her, her eyes were as red as rotten peaches, she ran over and threw herself into Xie's arms, and asked in a crying voice: "Mom, what she said is all lies Right? Lvyun and Lvyi are not dead, and Sister Mei was not taken away by bandits, they are all fine..."

As she talked, she couldn't go on, she was sobbing.

Mrs. Jiang held her daughter in her arms distressedly, and kept comforting her: "Xiao Wu, don't cry, your sister Mei is auspicious, and she must be fine. When the mountain road is cleared, mother will transfer all the people in the house. Come and help."

Sun Xiaowu was still crying, sobbing and asking: "What about Luyun and Luyi?"

Mrs. Xie was dumbfounded, not knowing how to tell her daughter about the death of the two girls. In order to take care of her daughter's emotions, she specially asked the young lady not to see the girl with green sleeves, lest she say something that would irritate her daughter.

But he was so strict in defense, but he still let someone break things.

Xie couldn't help looking at Lu Zhiwei who was standing not far away, she was still wearing a veiled hat, she couldn't see the expression on her face clearly, thinking of what Lu Xiu said just now, Xie's back felt chills.

She subconsciously protected her daughter behind her, and said to Lu Zhiwei from a distance: "Ah Wei, you are frightened, you should go to the wing to rest first, and I will take care of Xiao Wu." There are too many variables in this temple now , It's not the time to tear yourself apart with this person.

Lu Zhiwei was silent for a moment before slowly opening his mouth and said, "Auntie, why didn't you tell Sister Pingting the truth. Luyun and Luxiu were killed, and it was the maid in blue next to Li Meier who killed them. Her identity is very suspicious, and she is also good at martial arts, I suspect that she might be in the same group as those bandits, and it is her internal cooperation that allows the bandits to take advantage of them."

"You're talking nonsense. When the bandit appeared, that maid was not with Sister Mei at all, and why did she do this? Luyun and Luyi had no grievances against her, why did she kill them!" Sun Xiaowu Obviously not believing Lu Zhiwei's words, he immediately retorted.

Lu Zhi sneered slightly, and said in a sneering tone: "Maybe the two maids saw something they shouldn't have seen, so they were silenced by that maid. I saw that maid appearing there with my own eyes. Except for her, who else could be the one?" murderer?"

"You were there at the time, so besides her, you could be the murderer?" Sun Xiaowu hated Lu Zhiwei's nonsense, slandering at will, without even thinking about it, he opened his mouth to refute her.

But her unintentional words made both Xie Shi and Lu Zhiwei change their faces.

A flash of resentment flashed in Lu Zhiwei's eyes under the veiled hat, she let out a breath slowly, and said as calmly as possible: "How could sister Pingting have such thoughts, and why would I kill your maid?"
