Chapter 1704 Second Cousin He
The group exchanged bewildered glances, and at the signal from the middle-aged man called Uncle Yang, they all stopped asking questions.
He Er spoke quickly, “We’ve been through several chaotic situations before, and the incident at the Beast Camp was also caused by Young Master Meng and his group. Right now, there are roughly thirty people in the black market, and they’re all a rabble. The top managers are all gone, and the only one left, Manager Guo Wu, and his men are all dead. Jiang Kuanyu has also been arrested.”
Upon hearing this, everyone's faces lit up with joy. More than thirty people? And the manager was dead, so they had no useful people left?
This is a fantastic opportunity!
He Er continued, “Although there aren’t many people, they’re still a problem. Young Master Meng and Lord Lu are skilled, but they’ve been through several battles and are exhausted. So we need your help. I know some of you have martial arts training and can handle ordinary bandits without any problem. With your help, we can capture everyone here as soon as possible and leave this godforsaken place.”
Led by Uncle Yang, a dozen or so men with martial arts skills immediately responded, "No problem, we'll help. These bastards have caused us so much trouble, I've wanted to kill them for a long time."
"Yes, yes, I can too. These people have tormented us so badly, now we'll pay them back for it all."
He Er glanced at Meng Yunzheng and Shu Yu and laughed, "Alright, we'll let you out now. Brothers without martial arts skills, just wait here for us. We'll come back and take you out after we've caught everyone."
After saying that, Meng Yunzheng chopped the lock in half.
The dozen or so people who had spoken earlier stepped out from the crowd. The others, though wanting to go out as well, exchanged glances and gave up. This was the only chance, and they all knew their place, so they didn't want to hold anyone back.
Seeing this, He Er secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then hurriedly walked into the prison cell, asking Master Yang as he went, "Uncle Yang, how is my cousin?"
Mr. Yang sighed and pointed inside, "He's starting to have a fever."
He Er's expression changed slightly, and he quickened his pace. A moment later, he carried out a five- or six-year-old child.
He went straight to Shu Yu, his expression pleading, "Lu Xiangjun, do you have any fever-reducing medicine? This is my cousin, he's very hot and needs fever-reducing medicine."
He saw Meng Yunzheng hand a large pile of medicine to Shu Yu, though he didn't know what the medicine was for. But Uncle Meng had suffered serious injuries and a fever, and after Young Master Meng gave him a few pills, he seemed to feel much better.
Shu Yu asked in surprise, "Your cousin?"
He Er nodded. Yesterday, his cousin had started feeling unwell, so he went to the black market to find a doctor for him. The doctor was impatient, and He Er couldn't help but curse at him. As a result, the doctor, probably in a bad mood, dragged the cousin away without saying a word, intending to send him to the wild animal camp to feed the wild animals.
However, he also encountered Meng Pei because of this, and his life was saved.
After escaping danger, he had originally planned to come and see how his cousin was doing as soon as possible. However, the danger outside had not subsided, and neither Guo Laowu nor Jiang Kuanyu had been captured. He himself was just a scholar with no strength to even kill a chicken, so he simply could not do it, and there was a high possibility that he would implicate the Meng family.
So despite being very worried, she still endured Meng Yunzheng killing Guo Laowu, Jiang Kuanyu being arrested, and Shu Yu proposing to release the people in the prison.
