Chapter 1711 Finding the Armory

Now that we have enough manpower, we don't need to do the follow-up work ourselves.

Therefore, Shu Yu returned to the room where Meng Pei was. As soon as she entered, the first thing she saw was Jiang Kuanyu lying on the ground with her eyes rolled back.

She was stunned. "Dead?"

Meng Pei nodded and sat down next to his uncle. He looked at the latter with a complicated expression, and the latter seemed to be in a bad mood.

Shu Yu was very surprised to see this. What did Uncle Meng get from Jiang Kuanyu? Why did he look like this?

She opened her mouth, but didn't ask any more questions. She handed the things in her hand to Meng Pei, "Uncle Meng, I just ran to the kitchen to get some food and drinks. You haven't been eating properly these past two days, so have something to eat first."

They are all soft and easy-to-digest pastries, and they look appetizing.

Meng Pei was so hungry that he couldn't feel his stomach anymore; he was only holding on because of his strong will to rescue his uncle.

Seeing the pastries in Shu Yu's hand, he patted his stomach and finally smiled, "You're so thoughtful."

Seeing this, the bandit next to him swallowed hard; he hadn't eaten all day either.

Shu Yu brought quite a lot, and seeing his expression, she twitched her lips and gave him a portion.

The bandits' eyes lit up, and they quickly began to wolf down the food.

Shu Yu then squatted down and reached out to touch Uncle Meng's forehead, finding that his temperature had returned to normal.

"My uncle seems to be doing much better."

"The medicine given by Old Zhao is always the best. Although it is potent, it works quickly." Meng Pei swallowed the pastry in one gulp. "What about you guys? What's the situation outside? I heard quite a commotion just now."

Shu Yu then briefly explained the situation to him, and Meng Pei smiled after listening, "It seems that we will be able to go back soon."

Just as Shu Yu was about to respond, the bandit choked on the pastry and started coughing violently, clutching his neck.

Shu Yu, “…”, seemed startled.

The bandit finally finished coughing, but his face was still flushed. He asked tremblingly, "Um, Mr. Lu, I... I'm not with them. You must make it clear to the others later that I'm on your side."

"Look at you, so afraid of dying." Meng Pei said with great disdain.

The bandits must be crying, okay? When Meng Pei interrogated Jiang Kuanyu, no one else was around, so he watched the whole thing from beginning to end.

Young Master Jiang, usually such a dashing and debonair man, turned into a狰狞 (zhengning, meaning ferocious or hideous) figure after taking that drug, as if he had been slowly tortured to death. And that wasn't all; after Chief Escort Meng finished his interrogation, he tortured him half to death, all to avenge his brother.

At that moment, the bandit wished he had gone to the prison with Shu Yu and He Er to release the people; his heart was about to burst.

These people are really ruthless.

Just as the bandits were worrying about their bleak future, there was a knock on the door.

He jumped up with a start and hurriedly went to the door to ask, "Who is it? Who is it?"

"Meng Yunzheng".

The bandits breathed a sigh of relief and let the man in.

As soon as Meng Yunzheng came in, he went to check on his uncle. He was relieved to find out that everyone was alright. He then said to Shu Yu and Meng Pei, "We've found everyone, but we're not sure if everyone is still here, so we've sent him to check."

He pointed at the bandits.

The bandit swallowed hard; it seemed his time to prove himself had come. Just as he was about to express his determination, Meng Yunzheng didn't even look at him and continued to say to Shu Yu, "We also found the armory."
