Chen Jinliang's expression changed slightly.
He looked straight at Lu Ling and said in an unhappy tone: "Lu Ling, I told you not to believe the words of that poacher. She has ulterior motives and is trying to sow discord between us. But you don't seem to take my words to heart."
Lu Ling was silent for a moment before saying, "I just want to know if everything I do has any meaning. Did I save more animals, or... did I help the evil?"
Chen Jinliang narrowed his eyes, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in them.
Indeed, he valued and needed Lu Ling's abilities, which would save him a lot of trouble.
But, it doesn't have to be her.
What he needs is a chess piece that obeys him completely.
But when this chess piece suddenly develops its own consciousness and begins to question him, it may affect his overall situation...
Then it's time to discard this useless chess piece.
Chen Jinliang smiled gently again. "Lu Ling, I raised you. I know you are a kind child. Come here and I will tell you everything you want to know."
Lu Ling had no doubts and took a few steps forward, looking at him anxiously, "What is the truth... uh..."
There was a sudden sharp pain in the heart.
She slowly lowered her head and saw the dagger stuck in her left chest.
Lu Ling looked up at Chen Jinliang in disbelief, "President..."
Blood flowed from the corner of her mouth, and her face suddenly turned pale.
Chen Jinliang let go of his hand, his tone not without regret: "Lu Ling, your ability is very useful to me. I didn't want to kill you."
"But why do you believe what others say?" Chen Jinliang looked at her expressionlessly. "Isn't it better for you to just be my pawn?"
Lu Ling fell to the ground and tried to look up at the man who raised her since she was a child. It seemed that she never understood him.
"So... you are really using animals for profit?" Lu Ling asked with difficulty, stubbornly wanting an answer.
Chen Jinliang laughed heartily, his expression ferocious, no longer as gentle as usual. "Why do you think I founded this association? Is it for charity?"
"Do you know how much wealth those animals have brought me? Their fur, ivory, antlers, scales, and even their flesh can all be sold for money!"
"Don't you want to know where those two trucks are transporting the animals? Let me tell you, the animals in the green truck still have value, so they'll be sent to a secret base and squeezed dry of their remaining value. And the black truck...it'll transport the animals to the slaughterhouse."
"Look, these animals are so cute! They create value for me from head to toe. How could I bear to release them back into the forest?"
Chen Jinliang's expression became more and more excited, and even his tone was filled with endless greed.
But when he finished speaking, he found that Lu Ling had closed her eyes without him knowing when.
"What a pity! She was at the age of blooming flowers." He shook his head regretfully and threw Lu Ling's "corpse" hastily into the back mountain.
Although there were no wolves, tigers or leopards in the back mountain—where else could there be wild wolves, tigers or leopards around here?—he had captured them all.
But those ants, flies and other insects are enough to decompose the deer spirit's body.
Chairman Chen thought that no one had noticed what he had done, but he didn't know that everything was recorded by the detection aircraft in the air.
Qin Jiu was furious. "This scumbag actually killed Lu Ling!"
Chen Leying: "Lu Ling should be still alive. You and Grandpa continue to wait here. I'll go to the back mountain to check."
After saying that, he took advantage of the cover of leaves and nimbly jumped towards the back mountain.
Chen Leying quickly arrived at the back mountain and, based on the images provided by the detector, found Lu Ling in a bush.
There was a dagger stuck in Lu Ling's chest, her face was as pale as paper, but she still had a very weak breath.
Chen Leying immediately contacted Fei Qiu and Zhang Yan: "Do you have anything to save your life?"
Lu Ling shouldn't have died like this.
Fei Qiu also saw the scene just now and discussed with Lu Cheng: "I have a skill that can save my life. Can you do it yourself?"
Lu Cheng nodded: "No problem, go back quickly, saving people is the most important thing."
The two men were talking to each other while clinging to the iron bars of the cage desperately. The scene was quite funny.
"Okay, you must be careful."
Fei Qiu immediately teleported to Chen Leying and used his life-saving skills on Lu Ling, who was only breathing his last breath.
The release time of life-saving skills is very long and cannot be interrupted during this period, otherwise the effort will be wasted.
Once failed, the cooldown period will be as long as a day, and Lu Ling simply cannot hold on that long.
Chen Leying knew the importance of the matter and stood guard for Fei Qiu nearby.
Fortunately, this is the back mountain, and Chen Jinliang was afraid of being discovered, so he deliberately threw Lu Ling to a very remote place, so no one came to interrupt.
Here, beads of sweat continued to appear on Fei Qiu's forehead. It was obvious that this life-saving skill consumed a lot of his energy.
At this time, Chen Leying received news from Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan: "I don't have any life-saving props, and this car has arrived at a slaughterhouse! [Video] What should I do next?"
This is a short video of only a few seconds taken secretly by Zhang Yan.
In the video, the slaughterhouse is littered with blood and animal bones, looking very depressing.
Chen Leying's eyes flashed. Although she had already heard about the slaughterhouse from Chen Jinliang, she still couldn't help but feel palpitations when she saw this scene with her own eyes.
The next moment, Lu Cheng also sent a message: "[Location], I'm here too, I'm hiding under the truck now."
Chen Leying: "You two, don't alert the enemy yet. I'll go rescue Meng Meng first, and then we'll reunite."
Both of them replied "Received".
Chen Leying looked back at Fei Qiu: "Fei Qiu, how long will your treatment take?"
Fei Qiu gritted his teeth and said, "About five minutes."
Chen Leying: "Then I'll let Xiaojiu come over to help you keep watch. I'll go save Mengmeng first. The situation over at Lucheng and Zhangyan is very urgent."
Fei Qiu: "No need to ask Xiaojiu to come over, I'm fine."
Chen Leying didn't say anything and disappeared quickly. Qin Jiu came over and said, "You can't be without people here. Once you rescue them, we'll go and help. Trust them."
Fei Qiu nodded and continued the treatment. After a long period of treatment, Lu Ling's face was no longer so pale, and the wound on her chest was gradually healing.
If we hold on for a few more minutes, we can save the person from death.
Here, Chen Leying whispered to the old man, "Uncle, find a way to help me divert those people. I'll go rescue Meng Meng first, and I'll let the mandrill come over to help you."
Spirited uncle: "Okay, saving Meng Meng is the most important thing."
After saying that, he climbed up a tree in the distance along the branches and pretended to slip accidentally.
Hearing the noise, the crowd immediately gathered over.
Chen Leying also took advantage of the cover of leaves and walked towards the association's gate.
