“Sister, my little mouse just fell into a tree hole. It was this lady who helped me get it
out!”
This woman’s appearance was like a fairy’s, but she looked quite cold. Even though she was smiling, she looked unapproachable.
“Hello, miss!” Liu Qingyan’s body trembled slightly, and she quickly greeted her
“I am Lu Zheng from Tonglin County. Greetings, madam.”
Lu Zheng had been here for almost a month. He could tell if a woman was married or not from her hair accessories.
The woman bowed and said, “my surname is Shen. Greetings to the two of you.”
Liu Qingquan took the little mouse and went to play again. The woman looked at Liu Qingyan and said, “sister, you’re so beautiful. I’ve never seen you before. Did you move to Tonglin County recently?”
“That’s right. I was originally from Yao City. I just moved to Tonglin County a few days ago.
“That’s good. In the future, you can come and visit me. I live in a manor on the northeast side of the forest. It’s usually cold and quiet, and I don’t have many friends.”
“Sure, if you don’t mind, I’ll come visit.” Liu Qingyan said.
Liu Qingyan and the woman exchanged names. Lu Zheng’s ears were sharp, and he heard that the woman’s maiden name was Shen Ying. She was also from Tonglin County, but she didn’t live in the city. Instead, she had built a manor on the left side of the peach blossom garden.
This was typical in the great Jing dynasty.
The county was small and crowded. Rich people definitely had businesses in the city, but most of them had manors outside the city, which were large and cheap to build.
There weren’t many families in the city that had a garden.
Shen Ying and Liu Qingyan chatted as they walked, while Lu Zheng accompanied them.
It was obvious that Shen Ying didn’t have many friends. She was very excited, and the cold aura around her had faded a lot. She even picked a peach blossom and stuck it in Liu Qingyan’s hair. It gave off a sweet fragrance.
“I’ve never seen Young Master Lu before. Did you just move in?”
Shen Ying asked Lu Zheng as she felt that he was being neglected.
There were tens of thousands of people in the county town. If she asked every single person she’d never seen before, she’d ask that a dozen times a day.
However, Shen Ying was right this time.
“Yes, I just moved here a month ago. It’s my first time coming to the peach blossom garden.”
Shen Ying nodded and said, “I saw that you just registered that you came from Tonglin County, so I thought you were a local.”
“Since I’ve settled down in Tonglin County, I’m naturally a Tonglin citizen.” Lu Zheng smiled.
“Squeak!”
Lu Zheng looked toward the source of the voice and saw more than ten monkeys jumping and playing on the peach blossom tree.
“Little monkey!”
Liu Qingquan came out from the other side again. She looked at the top of the tree with bright eyes and shook the little mouse in her hand. “Let’s play together!” “Squeak!”
Most of the monkeys ignored Liu Qingquan’s call.
However, a monkey with a scar on his face suddenly noticed her. It was tall and seemed to be the leader of the monkey tribe.
When it saw Liu Qingquan, its eyes flashed. It then raised its hand and broke a branch, throwing it at her.
“Aiya!”
Liu Qingquan was shocked and quickly dodged. “Fine, I won’t play with you. Why did you hit me?”
“Squeak!”
Seeing that the monkey leader had made a move, the other monkeys followed suit and threw the things in their hands at Liu Qingquan.
Stones flew and tree branches fell.
Liu Qingquan covered her head and fled.
“What’s happening?” Lu Zheng was dumbfounded. Why did the situation suddenly turn into a chaotic battle?
“Didn’t they say that the monkeys here don’t usually provoke people?”
“Not usually…” Shen Ying shook her head and took a step forward.
“Where did this wild monkey come from? You dare to attack people?”
A shout was heard and a stone the size of half a fist flew into the treetops. Although it didn’t hit the monkeys, it caused a commotion.
Three young men suddenly appeared, picked up stones from the ground, and threw them at the treetops.

The group of monkeys was in a mess. Then, a few more monkeys separated and fought with the three men.
The three men seemed to be quite experienced. Using the trees as cover, they were able to fight against two or three times the number of monkeys.
Liu Qingquan had already fled to her sister’s side, looking aggrieved.
“Enough! Stop fighting! Go back!” Shen Ying’s eyes flashed with anger as she shouted at the monkeys.
“Squeak!”
The monkey leader’s eyes shrank. It also cried out in grievance. Then, it jumped back a few steps and called the other monkeys to leave.
Lu Zheng’s face was full of surprise.”They can understand you?”
Shen Ying said, “I live nearby and often come here. I’m familiar with the monkeys and I often give them food. They usually listen to me.”
“Then why did they hit me?” Liu Qingquan asked weakly.
Seeing her expression, Shen Ying couldn’t help but smile. “Maybe it got the wrong person.”
“Ladies, are you all right?”
At this moment, three men walked over together. “Don’t be afraid, we’ve already sent them running!”
Lu Zheng looked up. The three of them were not standing straight, and their expressions were flirtatious. Their eyes were fixed on Shen Ying and Liu Qingyan.
“To prevent those monkeys from returning, let’s walk together.”
“We often come to the peach blossom garden, so we know all the fun places.”
“Don’t worry, you’ll be safe with us.”
“Who are you? If you don’t know these three girls, then hurry up and leave.”
When Shen Ying and Liu Qingyan were whispering to each other, Lu Zheng stood a little further away. The three of them had misunderstood that they didn’t know each other, and thought that Lu Zheng had shamelessly stuck to them.
Liu Qingyan shook her head and took a step back.
Lu Zheng sighed and stepped forward. “Thank you, but we don’t need company. Please leave.”
“None of the girls said anything, so why are you speaking?” The leader snorted coldly and stepped forward to push Lu Zheng away.
It was obvious that he was using a lot of force, preparing to push Lu Zheng over.
Lu Zheng had literally just complimented the public security in the great Jing dynasty.
“Master Lu!”
Liu Qingyan called out anxiously. Just as she was about to step forward, Shen Ying pulled her back.
Lu Zheng quickly reached out and clasped the other party’s thumb. Then, he pressed down it down.
The man’s expression changed drastically, and he was forced to half-kneel.
“Let go!”
“Let go of our big brother!”
The other two immediately reacted and stepped forward.
Lu Zheng kicked one of them to the ground and placed him between him and the third person.
“Bang!”
The two of them collided. Lu Zheng casually pushed them aside, and then they rolled around on the ground.
“Get lost!”
“You’re a martial artist?” The leader rose to his feet and massaged his aching fingers. He looked at Lu Zheng in disbelief.
“Hmph, you look weak, just like a Rabbit King.”
“Cough!” The third person lifted his robe and pulled out a dagger.

“Are you not afraid of disfigurement?”
Another two daggers appeared in the hands of the other two.
Lu Zheng’s eyes narrowed. He picked up a meter-long branch from the ground with his foot and used a ray of light of providence to enhance his sword skills.
He shook his head, smiled, and moved his neck and wrists.
Lu Zheng smiled. “Rabbit King? I’ll turn you all into rabbits!”
