Chapter 5 Is it with a handle?

  Indestructible Primordial Spirit

  Watching Wang Yingfu's figure disappear again, Lu Buqi fell into deep thought.

  What Wang Yingfu said, Lu Buqi has also considered. What is called a useful person? In fact, it refers to people who have value and are utilized by the main family's direct descendants, regardless of whether they are ordinary civilians or slaves, this is the truth.

  A useful person will be respected by others. Lu Buqi didn't read many books in his previous life, because he had no time, but he still knew some Chinese history. He knew the story of Jiang Taigong fishing and also knew the story of three visits to the thatched cottage.

  Lu Buwei knew he wasn't Jiang Ziya, nor Zhuge Liang. He hadn't reached the point where masters would flock to him. However, anyone must recognize their own position and know what they can do, in order to truly survive in a world with distinct social classes.

  Lu Buqi was originally just a Zé slave, without even a name. He wanted a name of his own, he wanted freedom, and he wanted to live a better life - all of which could only be achieved through constant effort.

  The current Wuding Grand Election is an opportunity, as Wang Yingfu said, relying on his combat power comparable to the Seven Heavy Warriors of Bone Resonance. This time, the Wuding Grand Election will surely make a big splash. At that time, although he is not yet Jiang Ziya and Zhuge Liang, in the eyes of many people, he will become the future Jiang Ziya and Zhuge Liang.

  Now he can avoid making a choice, but when that time comes and he still doesn't make a choice, what awaits him will be mutual destruction among several major dark forces, with no place to rest his bones.

  "Is that the Second Master Wang Chen?" Lu Buqi pinched his nose and smiled: "No wonder the steward always had a bad impression of people from the main house, it turns out he's from the third branch? Illegitimate child, not even the eldest son? Wang Yingfu is not an impulsive person, it seems this Second Master has some tricks up his sleeve... Let's see then!"

  Maybe someone will say that the conflict between Wang Shuangqiao and her mother, as well as Wang Duocai, has not been resolved yet, but Lu Buqi is already thinking about his own future, isn't this a bit too heartless?

  In fact, Lu Buqi had already thought of a way to deal with it...

  "Ah...... save me......" Wang Shuangqiao's cry of surprise rang out, interrupting Lu Buqi's thoughts. He rushed into the inner room and saw Wang Shuangqiao looking around in confusion, unsure of what to do.

  As their eyes met, Wang Shuang's tense body suddenly relaxed, and tears fell like broken pearls: "Don't abandon... you..."

  He slowly walked over, reached out to wipe away the tears of the beautiful woman, and Lu Buqi's mouth slightly curved: "It's alright, your mother is also resting in the next room, the injury isn't too serious, just rest for a few days and she'll be fine."

  "Was I...?" Wang Shuangqiao's face was still pale, and although her clothes were tidy, she was sore all over and didn't even know if she had been violated.

  "Don't be silly!" Lu Buqi shook his head: "The neighbors delayed the time, we just came back... You rest for a while, and when you're in high spirits, go say thanks."

  Wang Shuangqiao nodded repeatedly in her heart, but she got out of bed: "I'll go take a look at my mother, she was beaten badly..."

  "Alright!" Knowing that Wang Shuangqiao was a filial and obedient girl, Lu Buqi accompanied her to the adjacent bedroom to see Baozi Widow.

  Poor Baozi widow's good looks were ruined by Wang Duocai's slap, turning her into a pig head. Seeing this scene, King Shuangqiao, who had just stopped crying, couldn't help but cry again.

  Gently stroking the widow's red and swollen face, Wang Shuangqiao's own face, however, was tinged with a hint of melancholy smile: "Mother was so brave back then, wielding the kitchen knife as if performing acrobatics..."

  "As a mother, it is the noble nature to protect one's children!" Lu Bujiu was moved by this and said: "At times like these, they often burst out with even greater strength than usual. I've heard of a woman who, in order to protect her son, managed to grab hold of an 800-jin ox and fling it away, despite weighing only 80 jin herself."

  "Wow... really?" Wang Shuangqiao was still a girl after all, and she couldn't help but feel curious about some mysterious things.

  "Of course it's true, just like your mother, can't a warrior cut off someone's ear with one slash?" Lu Buqi said the example was told by his master in his previous life, at that time he didn't care about it, but this life, he was willing to believe such things.

  It seems that the words of the two people stimulated Baozi Widow, and she suddenly woke up: "Killing a thousand knives... I... Oh, my poor Qiaoer, are you okay?"

  The voice was a bit unclear, but Wang Shuangqiao could hear it clearly: "Mother, I'm fine, it's Yiqi and Daguantie who rescued us, don't worry."

  "That's good... that's good..." Widow Bao let out a long sigh, then suddenly thought of something and shouted again: "Nangong, what about those murderous thugs? Have they been caught? I want to chop them into minced meat and make meat buns to feed the dogs..."

  For the killer move of Baozi Widow, Lu Buqi has seen it many times in these two years and has developed a certain level of immunity: "Baozi Auntie, they are people sent by Master Six of the main house, even the steward can't dispose of them casually..."

  "What? Is there still no king's law here?" Widow Baozi stood up excitedly, her brow furrowed in pain from her injuries.

  Wang Shuangqiao also looked at Lu Buqi with a sense of grievance, and anyone who had suffered such a great injustice would hope that the perpetrator could be brought to justice.

  "I'll go find the big manager right away... Is he not afraid of chilling our hearts, the people of Guazhen Town?" The baozi widow said as she was about to go find Wang Yingfu. With her fiery and outspoken personality, it's likely that Wang Yingfu would be so humiliated that he'd want to bury his head in a hole like an ostrich.

  Lu Buji blocked the way of Baozi Widow and said in her angry eyes: "The big manager also has his own difficulties... But Baozi Aunt, rest assured that good and evil will be rewarded in the end. Those who bullied Qiao'er will get their due retribution!"

  "Revenge? I don't believe in that nonsense, I just want to see these murderous thugs brought to justice with my own eyes. If one person can't get things done, then I'll rally the whole town... That Sixth Master is also a man who values his reputation, right?" The Widow Bao insisted: "Nangong, if you're a real man, don't stop me!"

  Sweat dripping down his back, Lu Buqi smiled wryly and glanced at Wang Shuangqiao, who walked up to him with a knowing look and pulled the widow back: "Mother, just listen to me, first take care of your face injury, don't go making trouble, Master and the others will handle these things well."

  "Baozi Auntie, rest assured, I guarantee that those few ruthless guys will get the punishment they deserve!" Lu Buqi's eyes didn't show any killing intent, but it still made Wang Shuangqiao's heart skip a beat, and she looked at Lu Buqi with inquiring eyes.

  Baozi widow wasn't stupid, after calming down a bit she understood and sat back on the bed with a huff: "Nangong, you'd better remember, no matter what happens, if you're a man of your word, you have to give our Qiao'er an explanation, or else it would be a waste of her liking you so much!"

  "Daughter... what are you saying?" Wang Shuangqiao pouted, her cheeks flushing.

  "I didn't say anything wrong, what's this dead girl ashamed of?" Widow Baozi looked at Lu Buqi with a serious expression: "Buqi, if Shuang Qiao wasn't waiting for you to come back, she wouldn't stand at the North Gate every day... and she wouldn't have been harassed by thugs either."

  Wang Shuangqiao's intention, Lu Buji would not know how to do it. He solemnly nodded: "What I say, I will do. These days, Aunt Baozi, you just rest well, here are some village households' doctors who have made a paste medicine that has a very good effect on reducing swelling and relieving pain, take it and use it."

  "Alright, I'll be watching your performance then!" The baozi widow took the plaster and looked at Lu Buqi with an increasingly gentle gaze, having a strong flavor of a mother-in-law looking at her son-in-law, getting more and more pleasing to the eye.

  Lu Bujiu's mouth slightly pursed: "Then I'll go back to the shop first..."

  Baozi widow saw this, and hastily pushed the shy Wang Shuangqiao beside her: "Dead girl, why don't you go see him off!"

  Out of the steamed bun shop, the sun was already high in the sky. Following Lu Buqi, Wang Shuangqiao suddenly spoke up: "Buqi, why don't we just eat something at home... it's already midday..."

  "No, the shop is in charge of food, and Old Wang is probably waiting for me to go back too." Lu Buqi replied softly.

  "Oh... that... " Wang Shuangqiao suddenly summoned up the courage, looking at Lu Buqi: "Are you going to deal with those bad people like you did back then?"

  Lu Buji was slightly surprised and immediately thought of what Wang Shuangqiao had said on which day. He didn't confirm or deny it, lightly pinched the tip of his nose, and left.
