Chapter 55: Luck Item, Evil Buddha Clay Statue (2)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

At this moment, on the street, there was a classic scene of someone snatching a lady.

This caused Lu Yuan, who was having a hangover, to instantly sober up. He frowned slightly.

The situation looked very familiar.

However, for some reason, Lu Yuan felt somewhat displeased when he saw this kind of plot that would only appear in s.

On the street, a fair-skinned woman wearing a white bamboo hat was half-kneeling on the ground and crying.

Although the woman was dressed in a plain white mourning dress, her enchanting figure and weak posture were still very well displayed.

The white veil on the woman’s head parted with the wind, allowing others to vaguely see the woman’s fair neck and delicate face.

Without a doubt, this was a woman with an outstanding appearance.

Even the twin courtesans whom Lu Yuan had had fun with last night were inferior to the woman in front of him now.

After all, there was still a clear difference in temperament between a layman and a professional, which had nothing to do with appearance or figure.

In terms of temperament, the two courtesans could not be compared to the woman who was like a white lotus.

After a moment of observation, Lu Yuan and the rest understood the reason for the girl’s crying.

A group of evil servants surrounded the woman. They didn’t touch her and just surrounded her, playing and laughing.

However, even though they hadn’t made a move yet, just this formation was enough to explain the problem.

Not far from the evil servants, a man with a lecherous expression on a tall horse sized up the woman’s body.

Facing the man’s “disgusting” gaze, the woman was shocked and scared.

However, other than looking around helplessly, the only thing she could do was weep.

Although many around wanted to be the “hero saving the beauty”, it was obvious that the man in luxurious clothes was rich and powerful.

Therefore, even now, not many dared to help out, afraid of bringing trouble upon themselves.

On one side was the classic act of selling one’s body to bury one’s father, and on the other side was the classic act of a wicked servant and young master.

Although the scene was old-fashioned, it would happen almost every once in a while in the Imperial capital.

Therefore, although the onlookers were furious, no one dared to step forward to stop the evil young master.

Noticing that Lu Yuan was frowning as he watched everything, Shang Yun asked, “Director, do you need us to make a move?”

However, Lu Yuan’s reply was beyond Shang Yun’s expectations.

“It’s inappropriate to do so…”

Although he was displeased, Lu Yuan still felt that it was inappropriate to make a move.

He had just arrived and was unfamiliar with the Imperial capital.

If he acted rashly, he might cause a change that would destroy his “ten years of stable life”.

Other than that, Lu Yuan had another concern.

Could it be that this act of selling her body to bury her father and snatching a lady in broad daylight was, in fact, an act that someone had deliberately put on for him to see?

The purpose was to lure him into a trap.

This was not Lu Yuan’s random thoughts.

In his previous life, he had seen many similar plots in the news.

For example, ladies who would specifically rent cars in front of hotels to scam the big bosses, then ultimately marry into a rich family. How was this situation any different from that?

It was possible that this woman and the young master were in cahoots with each other, and their goal was to catch a big fish here.

After all, someone who could make a move at this time naturally wouldn’t have a bad heart while having an extraordinary identity. Such a person was a good target to scam.

When he thought of this, Lu Yuan finally decided not to meddle in this matter.

However, before he could speak, Lion-ape Liu Wu seemed to have understood something and said, “Practitioner Shang, I understand what the director means! The director is right. It is indeed inappropriate for us to act now. Please think about it, Practitioner Shang. This woman is only trapped, and that evil young master hasn’t done anything indecent yet. That means that although the woman is afraid, she hasn’t reached the level of despair. If the Director were to make a move now, I don’t think it would leave a deep impression in the woman’s heart. At most, he would only get a word of thanks and a promise that she would repay him in her next life. There’s no doubt that there’s still a long way to go before the lady will be willing to devote her body to the director and give up her heart. That’s why I think what the director meant by saying it’s inappropriate is not that it’s wrong to attack, but it’s not right to do so now.”

The moment he said that, the three including Lu Yuan were stunned.

Lu Yuan was dumbfounded, while Shang Yun and Zhang Tieniu had an expression of “I see.”

At this moment, Lion-ape Liu Wu seemed to have sunk deep into his imagination, unable to extricate himself.

“In my opinion, the director’s word choice is very clever. Not only have these simple words shown a thorough understanding of the human heart, but they also perfectly grasped a woman’s psychological change from fear to despair. This is the difference between plain helping and providing timely help!”

After hearing all this, Shang Yun waited for a while. When he saw that Lu Yuan did not object, he thought that this was indeed what the director was thinking.

Hence, he sighed with emotion and said, “Clever, indeed, very clever! I have been too narrow-minded and was unable to understand the director’s thoughts.”

Even Zhang Tieniu, who had always been silent, agreed with a muffled voice, “Although I don’t understand what you’re saying, I think you’re right.”

Lu Yuan looked at Zhang Tieniu in shock as his body froze on the spot.

Good gosh, even an honest man like Zhang Tieniu believed in this nonsense?

He hadn’t even said anything yet. Why had all three of them “understood” his intentions?

With such imagination, being demon-slaying practitioners was such a waste. The most suitable profession for them should be ists!

Just as Lu Yuan was about to explain that he meant that they shouldn’t make a move at all when he said the word “inappropriate”, a system notification suddenly popped up.

[Ding! Luck item detected. Evil Buddha clay statue.]

[Luck item: You can obtain the luck within it through a special method.]

“Hmm?”

Hearing the system’s voice, Lu Yuan looked in a certain direction.

On the coffin beside the woman was an unremarkable clay statue of Buddha.

There was no doubt that the evil Buddha clay statue mentioned by the system was most likely this thing.

He could obtain the luck within it through a special method, huh…

Lu Yuan pondered for a moment before raising his head to look at Shang Yun.

“Practitioner Shang, you really should learn more from Practitioner Liu in the future.” He said without batting an eyelash, “What I meant just now when 1 said ‘inappropriate’ is indeed as he has interpreted…”

When he heard this, Shang Yun’s face was filled with shame as he said, “You’re right, director. I’ll definitely learn from Practitioner Liu in the future so that I can quickly understand the message you want to convey.”

Just as the three of them were chatting, the luxuriously dressed young man had already walked over to the woman in the mourning dress.

“My Lord, should we make a move now?” Seeing this, Shang Yun asked hurriedly.

Lu Yuan looked at the luck item beside the woman, the evil Buddha clay statue, and finally nodded.

“Make your move. It’s time to let some people know that they have to pay back for their doings sooner or later..”
