Chapter 130 Why the Mao Family Was Tricked
They took out the ingredients and prepared a large table of food to celebrate Kong Fenglin's joining.
Seeing the sincere reactions of everyone in the team, Kong Fenglin's uneasy mood eased a lot.
"It's already a mess outside. The Mao family won't let you go. Do you have any plans? What can I do?"
Lan Shiruo smiled faintly, "No need. The Mao family is now focused on the Wei family and has no time to deal with small characters like us. The little we get from him is not as much as what he gives to beggars. Mao Wanru is only important to him when she is valuable. When she is not valuable, he will not spend an extra minute to vent his anger on her."
Kong Fenglin's mouth twitched. He really wanted to ask, if they saw it so clearly, why did they go to all that trouble to get it back? This wasn't the style of a big team. To describe it as ruthless and merciless wouldn't be an exaggeration.
If Lan Shiruo knew, she would definitely give him a helpless reply. Sometimes people are like machines, there will always be some problems. They may have been kicked in the brain by a donkey for a while.
"What about your adoptive parents?"
"They are nothing but mindless puppets. We don't have to do anything; they will come and die on their own. Just stay here and wait for the chaos in City N to pass, then we can leave."
Kong Fenglin looked around and saw that everyone had a calm expression on their faces. He immediately calmed down and waited to see what would happen.
This night was destined to be restless. Countless lives disappeared silently in the cold night. Those who discovered clues huddled in the house, not daring to go out or sleep, and kept their eyes open until dawn.
Another day passed, and the bloodiness of the night did not stain the day, as if everything was a dream. Everyone continued to live their lives as usual, but the inner uneasiness became increasingly stronger.
Lan Shiruo asked her friends to pack up and leave early the next morning. She also gave the crystal core obtained by Han Qingquan to Miaomiao. The giant ape was a power mutation, which was suitable for her. After absorbing it, she could advance to the second-level superpower.
"Do you have anything to take with you? Or is there anyone you need to say goodbye to?" asked Kong Fenglin.
Kong Fenglin shook his head. Everything that had happened before was like a nightmare to him. He had never imagined that in middle age, he would be left with nothing. It was quite sad. "Leaving here will make me a brand new Kong Fenglin."
Lan Shiruo smiled, "Congratulations. Now you have nothing to do, you can go and rest for a while. It might be a bit noisy tonight."
Kong Fenglin raised his eyebrows and returned to his room.
The small house was very quiet, as quiet as an ignorant child, completely unaware of the danger approaching.
"Hmph, nothing special. Dad, everyone is ready. When are we going to start?" Du Yan's face was full of disdain, but when he thought of Lan Shiruo and the others' supplies, his heart was filled with excitement.
Ye Bingkun sneered, "Don't worry, wait until they get into chaos, then we can take action. After all, we are on someone else's territory, so we can't be too conspicuous."
"knew."
He Minyan hesitated and asked, "Dad, if we touch that bitch Lan Shiruo, will those people find out?"
"What will happen?" Ye Bingkun didn't care. "She was kept alive just for the Lan family's things. Now, no one wants those things even if they were given to others. What's the point of her still being alive? Those people handed her over to us and told us to do whatever we wanted with her. Now they won't care about her at all. She's just a useless piece of trash. If she dies, she dies."
The three of them felt relieved after hearing this, "That's good, we've endured enough for so many years." They felt unhappy when they thought that their glamorous lives were all thanks to Lan Shiruo.
Night came quietly, and the faint smell of blood wafted through the air again, stronger than the night before, accompanied by muffled sounds and vibrations from time to time, making people terrified.
There was a faint sound around the quiet little house. In the darkness, the little friend raised the corner of his lips and said, "Here I come."
As soon as he finished speaking, the small house was instantly covered by thick fog. The people who sneaked over were confused. What was going on?
"ah"
The screams frightened the neighbors so much that they trembled with fear. They had lived in comfort in N City for too long and had never seen the bloody cruelty of the outside world. When they suddenly heard such horrifying screams, they felt terrible and the whole family hugged each other and huddled under the bed.
In the thick fog, everyone who approached from all directions had their feet entangled by vines and was dragged backwards for dozens of meters, circling the small villa at an incredible speed.
The heavy cotton jacket was dragged with a big hole, and the entire back was covered in blood.
He was dragged into the small house when he was taking his last breath.
Yunshui Yao walked over, twisting her waist, her eyes smiling, "Handsome brother, who asked you to come?"
The man with a painful expression suddenly turned cheerful and smiled like an idiot, "Ye Bingkun asked us to come."
"Where did Ye Bingkun find you?"
"We were not hired by Ye Bingkun. We were sent by the higher-ups to help Ye Bingkun."
"Oh? Who's your boss?"
"It's Mr. Hao."
"Who is Mr. Hao?"
"It's Mr. Hao."
Yunshui Yao raised an eyebrow, "What is the relationship between Ye Bingkun and Mr. Hao?"
"Ye Bingkun is just Mr. Hao's dog."
"Where is Mr. Hao?"
"Mr. Hao is in City Y."
"What's Mr. Hao's name?"
"Call me Master Hao."
Yunshui Yao stood up and said, "I can't find anything useful to ask."
Lan Shiruo pursed her lips and nodded, "Get Ye Bingkun on the bed."
Ao Chengyi personally took the lead. He couldn't avenge his young wife now, but he could collect some interest. He and his friends broke several people's necks and quickly disappeared into the night.
Kong Fenglin's mind raced, wondering how many abilities these people had hidden that he had never seen before.
The next morning, Ye Bingkun's family of four all had bruised faces and noses. One of them woke up in shock, hugging a corpse. When they rushed out of the house in panic, the sky outside had changed. The Mao family had fallen, and the Wei family was the only one in power. They were now cleaning up the remnants.
Ye Bingkun cursed Mao Heyi as a loser. Even with the help of his backers, he still couldn't win. He deserved to die. He called the other three and left quickly before the Wei family remembered them.
Wei Xiong sat in the large office chair, feeling more relaxed than ever before. "Find someone to follow Ye Bingkun closely. Kill two of them if necessary. Make them desperate."
"I understand," Wei Yin nodded. "Lan Shiruo and her group are also preparing to leave. Should we go and see them off?"
Wei Xiong knocked on the back of the chair. "Forget it. They like quiet time, so we can't be rude to them. Their medicine is quite effective. Do you want to buy some more?"
"I bought it, and they gave me a bunch of other medicines as a gift, saying it was a reward for their hard work. N City is so chaotic, they'll need them anyway, but they're keeping them useless." Those medicines are truly effective. Even without Rong Deju's help, they wouldn't necessarily lose this time just with those medicines. It even has a nice name: "Smiling in a Dream." Take it three days in advance, and three days later, you'll die, smiling. It's absolutely perfect for killing and robbing, but it's a shame that in this apocalypse, it only shines in internal struggles like theirs. It's useless against decaying corpses. What a shame.
Wei Xiong smiled. Lan Shiruo and her group hated the Ye family, but they didn't have any deep hatred for the Mao family. They simply blamed their entanglement with the Ye family, which led to their anger being taken out on them. Furthermore, Mao Wanru didn't know what was good for them, which was why they were tricked. "Keep an eye on them. When they establish their own territory, send them a big gift."
"Okay, if there's nothing else to do, I'll go get busy first. There are still a lot of stinky rats jumping around."
"Go ahead. When you have some free time, don't forget to thank Rong Deju."
Wei Yin nodded and left. Wei Xiong sighed, "What a pity! If we stayed in N City, there wouldn't be enough space for these giant Buddha statues."
