Young Master, Don't Show Off - Chapter 334

[Chapter 334 Cleansing]

The East Sea Chamber of Commerce, a courtyard in the deepest part.

In the heavily guarded room, the blonde woman, chained and locked in a crystal tank, hugged her legs and huddled in the corner. She just shed a few tears and then merged into the surrounding water.

“Woo, Dad and Mom are right, humans are indeed a terrible race…”

“I will never sneak out again…”

“Lord Poseidon, save me…”

…

While she was sobbing quietly, suddenly, she heard a noise coming from outside, but soon it became quiet again.

Then, the door was pushed open and a figure walked in from outside.

She shivered in fear and leaned back again, but she was in the corner and had nowhere to retreat.

She took a timid look and then froze. The man

who walked in was a very handsome man.

She had seen this man during the day, but she had just been caught at that time and did not look closely.

At this moment, when she saw his eyes, her body shook and even a ripple appeared on the water surface.

She could not mistake these eyes.

These days, this pair of eyes appeared in her dreams countless times.

She flew over the wall of the tank and said excitedly: “Lord Poseidon, did you hear my prayer?”

Lin Xiu was stunned. He had clearly changed his appearance last time, how could she still recognize him?

He couldn’t help asking: “How did you recognize me?”

The Sea Spirit girl lay on the wall of the tank and said happily: “I will never forget the eyes of Lord Poseidon…”

Unexpectedly, someone could recognize a person by his eyes. Lin Xiu thought to himself that he would change his eye color when he changed his appearance next time.

Since he was recognized, he didn’t pretend anymore. He waved his hand gently, and the Sea Spirit girl flew out of the water. Lin Xiu held the iron chain that locked her and exerted a little force. With a “click”, the iron chain broke and fell to the ground.

He glanced at the woman and said calmly, “Didn’t I tell you last time not to run around? Why did you dare to go ashore?”

The woman immediately lowered her head and whispered, “I won’t dare to do that next time…”

Lin Xiu looked at her and asked, “How did you fall into the trap? Can you understand the language of the human race?”

The human race and the sea race are not mutually intelligible. Logically, she can’t understand human language at all, so this trap should be useless to her.

The sea spirit woman opened her mouth and said in stiff Daxia language, “I, stole, learned, a little…”

After hearing what she said, Lin Xiu knew that it was not the first time she had sneaked ashore. At first, she stole the washed and dried clothes of the peasant woman by the river, then mixed into the crowd, observed the words and actions of humans, and slowly learned some of Daxia’s language. The

sea spirits are very similar to the human race, and ordinary people would not notice it.

But her strange fragrance, outstanding appearance, and poor Daxia language still attracted the attention of those who were interested. She was almost caught by the people of the East China Sea Chamber of Commerce before, but she escaped by luck. This time, she was caught again by someone’s design…

Lin Xiu couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. It was her luck that such a simple-minded sea clan member could live to this day…

He reminded the sea spirit woman a few words, not to call him Lord Sea God outside, and not to tell others that they had met before, and then took her out. It did

n’t matter if Caiyi Ning’er, Qin Wanminghe, and Lingyin knew about these things, but there were still outsiders around him.

For example, Zhao Lingjun.

For example, Natasha.

Especially Natasha, she was a Daluo person after all, and many of his secrets could not be known by her.

At this time, the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce was in chaos. Lingyin saw this dark and dirty thing for the first time, and was very angry. He froze the front and back doors of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce and did not allow anyone to enter or leave.

Such a big commotion just now even the government was alarmed. The prefect of Donghai came here with a large number of people and happened to see Lin Xiu and the woman of the Sea Spirit Clan flying out of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce. When he

saw Lin Xiu for the first time, he stepped forward quickly and bowed, saying: “Hello, Lord Lin. Lord Lin’s visit to Donghai is a blessing for my Donghai Prefecture. I, the prefect of Donghai, have long heard of Lord Lin’s name. I admire Lord Lin like a surging river, which is endless…”

Although this was the first time he met Lin Xiu in person, the Song family had sent Lin Xiu’s portrait to him a few days ago.

He had been worried these days, fearing that something would happen in the prefecture, but he didn’t expect that something would really happen…

In his heart, he had already greeted all the women of the Donghai Chamber of Commerce for eighteen generations. They were ignorant of the height of the sky and the depth of the earth. They really thought that they were lawless because they were in the upper realm of the earth level. Below the heaven level, they were all ants. For those nobles in the royal capital, crushing them to death was as simple as crushing an ant.

Lin Xiu glanced at the prefect of Donghai and asked, “Who are you from in Jingdu?”

The prefect of Donghai said, “My Lord Lin, my surname is Song.”

Lin Xiu said coldly, “The Donghai Chamber of Commerce has done such a cruel thing under your noses. You are to blame. Bring people in to investigate. All those involved in the case will be dealt with according to the law. No one should be spared!”

The prefect of Donghai nodded immediately.

The instructions from Jingdu were that if they met Lin Xiu, they should cooperate with him in whatever he wanted to do. After receiving the order, he immediately led people into the Donghai Chamber of Commerce and controlled all the people.

In the Donghai Chamber of Commerce, there is a strong man of the upper earth level, who is also the president of the Donghai Chamber of Commerce. Such a strong man will be treated with courtesy everywhere, and in the remote Donghai Prefecture, he is the one who has the final say. Even when he meets him normally, he has to be polite.

But such a strong man is now limp on the ground like a dead dog, and the prefect of Donghai Prefecture dare not breathe.

In addition to a strong man of the upper earth level, the Donghai Chamber of Commerce also has five lower earth level worshippers.

These five people are also famous in the Donghai Prefecture, but their fates are more miserable than one another.

Three were frozen into ice sculptures, with only their eyeballs able to move.

One was nailed to the wall by an ice spear, and several constables took a lot of effort to take him off. Another one had broken ribs and was carried away by two constables.

The prefect of Donghai Prefecture followed the constables to the inner courtyard of the Donghai Chamber of Commerce and took a look. The more he looked, the more frightened he became.

In the past year, more than half of the girls, boys, girls, and women who were lost in the counties of Donghai Prefecture were here. Even he did not expect that the Donghai Chamber of Commerce was doing such evil things in secret.

He even saw a few women of the sea clan here.

Just smelling the strong fishy smell made him feel a little nauseous. After imagining a certain scene, he couldn’t help but vomit.

The next morning.

After getting up, the people found that the four gates of the prefecture city were all closed, and no one was allowed to enter or leave. Soon, they received a shocking news.

The largest chamber of commerce in several coastal prefectures, the Donghai Chamber of Commerce, was uprooted overnight.

From the president of the upper realm of the earth level, the worshiper of the lower realm of the earth level, to the ordinary manager, all were taken away by the government. It is rumored that in addition to the open business, the Donghai Chamber of Commerce also did a lot of shady things in secret, which were discovered by the big shots from Kyoto.

It was not just the Donghai Chamber of Commerce that was unlucky. Some wealthy families and merchants in the city were also broken into by government officials before dawn, and many people were taken away.

After the government posted a notice, the people understood the reason for the incident.

It turned out that the Donghai Chamber of Commerce was a business association that did business properly on the surface, but secretly kidnapped boys and girls, trafficked people, and even sea people to satisfy the perverted hobbies of some rich people…

Those crimes were shocking and made them feel cold.

For most people, these things were unimaginable.

The lives of the wealthy families and merchants that they could imagine were nothing more than fine clothes and food, eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, but they didn’t expect that those people were far from satisfied with these… In

just three days, blood flowed like a river in the Donghai City.

Countless heads rolled down, and the ground of the vegetable market was washed over and over again, and finally turned into a dark red color that could not be washed out. I don’t know how many wealthy families and merchants lost their heads and their property was confiscated.

Ordinary people in Donghai City were even lucky enough to see the scene of the head of a strong man in the upper realm of the earth rank falling to the ground.

That was the upper realm of the earth rank. Some dukes in Kyoto were only in the upper realm of the earth rank. Such a strong man could not escape death in front of the law. He was killed as he said, clean and neat.

It was like a beam of light shining in the darkness, which gave many people in Donghai City a glimmer of hope for the court.

After all, there were nobles in the court who were willing to work for the people. In

the Donghai government office, the prefect of Donghai bowed to Lin Xiu and said respectfully: “Lord Lin, those children have been sent back to their parents. The government office compensated them with part of the property confiscated from the Donghai Chamber of Commerce and those wealthy merchants, which was enough for them to have food and clothing for the rest of their lives. The rest was handed over to the national treasury. Several sea clan women were also released back to the sea. Do you think we have done anything wrong…”

There was really nothing to criticize about what the Donghai government office did this time.

This time, the cleansing was more thorough than what Lin Xiu had done in Jiangnan some time ago. For a long time, Donghai Prefecture should be the most stable prefecture in Daxia.

After dealing with these things, when they returned to the pleasure boat, the women were still surrounding the woman from the Sea Spirit Clan.

After three days, they were still full of curiosity about her.

Xue Ning’er leaned close to her and smelled her, saying, “She smells so good, even better than perfume…”

Natasha gently stroked her skin and murmured, “Her skin is so smooth, as if it were made of water…”

Minghe looked at her chest and sighed.

Lin Xiu walked over and said, “Don’t scare me.”

After hearing his voice, the woman from the Sea Spirit Clan immediately ran behind Lin Xiu, grabbed his collar, and looked at the women timidly. She was really scared by being touched by so many humans.

Lingyin looked at Lin Xiu and said in surprise: “She seems to like you very much.”

Lin Xiu shrugged and said: “Maybe it’s because I saved her.”

Lingyin asked again: “Are you going to keep her with you?” Lin Xiu

said: “Of course I will let her go back. Do you think I’m the same as those men? Besides, she must want to return to the sea.”

After all, the sea people are an alien race, with slippery bodies and much lower body temperature than humans. He still likes human women like Lingyin, who feel better and have more warmth.

Besides, the sea spirits belong to the sea, how can he force them to do something against their will.

At this time, the sea spirit woman looked at Lin Xiu, tilted her head, blinked her eyes, and said word by word in the unfluent Daxia language: “I, don’t, want to…”
