Chapter 257 Being Plotted Against
"Brother Yi, is it really you?" Jiang Hao looked surprised.
Leng Yi opened the door and got out of the car with a gun. When the robbers saw that he had a gun, they ran away.
Leng Yi looked at Jiang Hao. He was dirty and very thin, with sunken cheeks.
"Why are you here? Where are Li Shengnan and the others?" Leng Yi asked.
"They..." Jiang Hao paused, a look of guilt on his face, "They are not with us, we got separated..."
"What's going on?" Leng Yi frowned. At that time, they said they were going to the official base. Yang Qing gave them a pickup truck, and they also had several hundred kilograms of food and other supplies. How could it turn out like this?
"Brother Yi, why don't we find a place to talk?" Lin Rui on the side looked at Jiang Hao with disdain, then looked at the flies flying everywhere, and simply didn't want to stay for another minute.
"You drive my car back first and tell Yang Qing that I found a friend of ours named Jiang Hao and ask her to contact me." Leng Yi said.
"I don't have a cell phone now, how can I contact you?" Lin Rui asked.
"She knows." Leng Yi waved his hand, "You go back first, I'll talk to my friend later."
Lin Rui was helpless, but he really didn't want to stay here, so he started the car and left.
"What about Wang Min? She can't be with you too, right?" Leng Yi asked.
"Yes, but she is sick and resting at home." Jiang Hao said.
"Take me to see it." Leng Yi nodded.
Jiang Hao took Leng Yi through many twists and turns and arrived at a shantytown made entirely of wooden boards and iron sheets. It was dirty and smelly everywhere, but Leng Yi followed him in without changing his expression.
From time to time, people nearby would shine flashlights over to look, and when they saw a man so well-dressed and handsome, they all looked at him curiously.
"This is it." Jiang Hao pushed open a crooked door. The house was so low that Leng Yi had to lower his head to get in.
"Are you back?" a weak voice came from inside.
When Wang Min saw Leng Yi, he was stunned.
Leng Yi saw Wang Minqing lying on a bed made of door panels, covered with a thin, black and torn quilt. Plastic bags filled with unknown things were hung everywhere in the room.
Wang Min was also very thin. Under the dim candlelight, his face looked sallow and no one knew what illness he had.
"Leng, Leng Yi..." Wang Min's face turned red, and then he started coughing violently.
"I'll pour you a glass of water." Jiang Hao said hurriedly, shaking the broken kettle, but there was no water left.
Leng Yi took out a bottle of mineral water from his bag and gave it to Jiang Hao. Jiang Hao's eyes suddenly turned red, "Thank you, thank you!"
"Brother Yi, you..." He didn't say the word "sit" because there was no place to sit except on the bed. But the bed was so small and was made from a door panel, so there was no way to sit.
Jiang Hao felt ashamed and embarrassed.
"How did you end up like this?" Leng Yi asked.
"It's all my fault. If it hadn't been me..." Jiang Hao looked guilty.
"We were on our way to the official base and met two of my fellow villagers, relatives, who we had a very good relationship with back home."
"They begged me to let them ride in the back of our pickup truck. Li Shengnan and the others initially disagreed, but I agreed."
"In the evening, the fellow villagers said they wanted to treat us to a meal to thank us for giving them a ride. Li Shengnan and the others said it was unnecessary, so they brought out some dishes and invited everyone to eat together."
"Who knew they had ulterior motives and put drugs in the food? When we woke up, they were gone. They drove away our car and took away everything in it."
"Even our belongings and guns were searched and taken away."
Speaking of this, Jiang Hao felt extremely ashamed, while Wang Min looked dejected.
"At that time, Li Shengnan and Gao Yang got furious and parted ways with us. We lost our points cards and supplies, so we couldn't enter the official base. We don't know where they went."
"We can't get into the base, so we can only look for supplies outside to survive. But the supplies in Mingcheng have been almost completely ransacked, and there are also specialized freelance teams. We can't compete with them at all, so we can only eat one meal a day."
"Later, I don't know if it was something she ate that was bad or what, but Wang Min got sick, and it's been like this ever since..."
Leng Yi fell silent. Although Jiang Hao and the others had brought this upon themselves, Yang Qing should not stand by and watch them perish in their current state.
Besides, they were deceived in the first place and did not intend to harm Li Shengnan and Gao Yang. They themselves were not having a good life either.
The intercom at my waist rang.
Leng Yi picked up the intercom and went outside to talk. The smell inside was really bad.
"Leng Yi, is it really Jiang Hao and the others? And where are Shengnan and the others?" Yang Qing's anxious voice came from the intercom.
Leng Yi roughly repeated what Jiang Hao said.
Yang Qing was silent. She didn't expect it to turn out like this.
It’s been so long since the end of the world, and they still haven’t become alert at all. How can they still be plotted against?
"Wang Min seems to be seriously ill, and the environment here is really too bad..." Leng Yi said.
"When Lin Rui came here just now, he said that no outsiders were allowed to enter the villa. He must have seen Jiang Hao's expression..." Yang Qing pondered, "See if you can let them stay at Li Liang's place for a while, as if they were renting his house."
"We'll pay the rent, and a room for the two of them will be enough. If that doesn't work out, let Li Liang stay at Lin Feng's place for a while. I don't know if they agree or not."
"I'll talk to them." Leng Yi said. He had given Li Liang a walkie-talkie before, so they should be able to get in touch.
When Li Liang's intercom was connected, he was at home.
The work in the villa area is almost done, and he hasn't found any other job yet.
I felt embarrassed to disturb Yang Qing and the others, so I didn't contact them.
When he heard Leng Yi say that he would temporarily rent his house to a friend, he agreed without saying a word.
After negotiating with Li Liang, Leng Yi told Yang Qing that she would come and pick them up right away.
"Come with me and live somewhere else. The environment here is too bad and not conducive to recuperation." Leng Yi said.
"Brother Yi, we can't implicate you anymore..." Jiang Hao felt extremely ashamed.
"That's what Yang Qing meant," Leng Yi said. "Besides, Wang Min is so seriously ill, how can she recover here?"
Leng Yi looked at Wang Min again, "Yang Qing knows you're sick and is very worried. You know she's a person who values friendship and loyalty, so don't let her down."
Wang Min's tears suddenly fell. She felt that she was so useless. She had relied on them to live such a good life in the past.
Later, he implicated Li Shengnan and others, and his illness was retribution.
"Pack up and go!" Leng Yi said to Jiang Hao, "Just pack a few sets of clothes. If you have medicine, take it with you. Don't take anything else."
Jiang Hao's face turned red. He had some junk here, and if he took it to someone else's house, it would dirty the place.
He packed some clothes and helped Wang Min get up.
He walked outside, carried Wang Min on his back and walked out. It took a long time before he reached the main road. Yang Qing drove over in an ordinary car.
