"laugh…"
The knife struck the bulletproof vest, but apart from making a slight sound, it left no mark whatsoever.
"Have you eaten? Put some effort into it!" the tall soldier said again.
"Okay, then be careful."
The short, thin soldier swallowed hard and swung his knife at the enemy again.
This time, he used 70% of his strength.
"laugh…"
As a result, no marks were left on the bulletproof vest.
"My God, this thing is truly amazing!"
"I can't believe my eyes, it really is invulnerable to blades and bullets!"
"This is even better than armor; it's so lightweight that it doesn't hinder movement at all."
"..."
Upon seeing this, all the soldiers were stunned, and an uproar ensued.
Only those who have served in the military can truly appreciate the usefulness and value of bulletproof vests!
Seeing the soldiers' excited expressions, Ji Minxiu said, "As long as you can hold out for these two days, the bulletproof vests will be your reward!"
"Thank you, young master. We will definitely do our best." Upon hearing this, the soldiers were all very excited.
They live a life of constant danger, so having this bulletproof vest is like having several extra lives!
After instructing the soldiers to keep a close watch on the place, Ji Minxiu and Yun Zhourong flew to the inn in a helicopter.
"The monster is coming! The monster is coming again!"
These days, rumors about the monster have already spread throughout the entire Yazhou Ridge.
Upon seeing the helicopter again, all the people fled in panic.
Even Third Master's henchmen were prioritizing their own survival.
Therefore, Ji Minxiu easily brought Lan Jianhe and the others out.
At that moment, Third Master was drinking in the brothel when suddenly a thug rushed in in a panic, shouting, "Third Master, something terrible has happened! Those outsiders who rescued the mute girl have been captured by a monster!"
Distracted, Third Master said irritably, "What monster? What nonsense are you spouting!"
"It's the same monster that appeared the day we set fire to the inn. It's reappeared and carried away the mute girl and the others."
To save time during the rescue, Ji Minxiu simply had a few people lie on the rope ladder, so to outsiders it looked like they were being snatched away by a large bird's claws.
"What!"
Upon hearing this, Third Master immediately stood up in shock, but then frowned and stroked his chin, saying, "Being taken away by a monster is just perfect, there's no way to prove anything!"
"It's terrible, Third Master! That monster...that monster is flying towards our workshop!"
No sooner had Third Master finished speaking than another thug rushed in, anxiously asking, "Do you think that monster might attack our workshop?"
"Damn it, let's go check it out!"
Third Master couldn't sit still any longer and immediately led his men to the workshop.
However, as they walked along, they found that they didn't see a single thug.
"What's going on? Why haven't we seen a single person?" A henchman next to Third Master asked in confusion as they approached the old site of the workshop.
"Could it be that they've all been killed by that monster?" Another thug asked, his face filled with fear.
"Impossible. There were so many people, and so little time has passed. Even if that monster is powerful, it couldn't have done it so quietly."
Third Master disagreed, and instead frowned and pondered, "No, something's not right... You said that monster just now took away the mute girl and those strangers?"
The thug nodded quickly, "Yes."
"Then, the monster flew towards the workshop again... I remember the first time that monster appeared, it carried the child we had thrown into the attic out of the house..."
The more Third Master thought about it, the more suspicious it seemed. He murmured to himself, "Although no one saw what happened afterward, the child in the attic definitely survived..."
"Third Master, the way you're saying it, it sounds like that monster is helping those outsiders," one of the thugs couldn't help but say.
These words sparked a flash of inspiration in Third Master's mind, and he excitedly exclaimed, "That's right, they're helping those outsiders! Although it seems unbelievable, but... Oh no, if that monster is in cahoots with the outsiders, then our workshop is doomed...!"
Thinking of this, Third Master immediately ran ahead.
After running a few steps, he realized no one was following him and angrily shouted, "What are you all standing there for? Keep up!"
However, the thugs hesitated and said, "Third Master, no, what if that monster is in cahoots with the outsiders? If we go with such a small group, won't we just be throwing our lives away?"
Upon hearing this, Third Master calmed down and said, "You're right. Let's go find the master!"
If the location of the new workshop has already been exposed and is controlled by those outsiders, going there now would be of no use. It would be better to find the owner as soon as possible and discuss a solution.
As long as those outsiders don't leave Yazhou Ridge, they still have ways to cope.
Third Master and his group hurriedly turned and left, while Yun Zhourong had already placed the rescued person on the ground.
"Mmm..."
The moment they saw the mute girl, all the slaves in the workshop excitedly rushed forward and surrounded her.
"Mmm..."
The mute girl herself was also in tears, and she and the slaves held hands and greeted each other.
Upon seeing this scene, Yun Zhourong knew that the mute girl's departure was likely the result of the cooperation of all the slaves.
These people, despite facing adversity, never gave up, which is truly admirable.
Once everyone had calmed down, Yun Zhourong told everyone to get some rest, and then went to the next room with Ji Minxiu.
"I'll go back and take care of things first. If anything happens here, remember to call me immediately," Ji Minxiu instructed Yun Zhourong.
Recently, since leaving the Ji family, he has had to personally make decisions on all matters, big and small, in his new company, keeping him extremely busy every day.
However, these were all his own matters, and he did not tell Yun Zhourong, nor did he want her to worry or add to her pressure.
After all, Yun Zhourong herself was also having a tough time.
"good."
Although Yun Zhourong was reluctant, she still nodded.
From a young age, she understood a principle: one must rely on oneself for many things. It is good to have someone to rely on, but one cannot rely on others all the time.
Moreover, after spending time with Ji Minxiu, she understood even more the importance of a woman's independence.
"You must take good care of yourself." Ji Minxiu said, stepping forward to hug Yun Zhourong tightly.
Yun Zhourong also reached out and hugged him back. The warm embrace calmed her anxious heart.
After Ji Minxiu left, everyone went to rest, and the workshop fell silent.
Yun Zhourong couldn't sleep well because she had things on her mind, and she was in a half-awake state.
"Enemy attack!"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
Suddenly, a commotion arose outside, with flashes of fire and the sound of arrows piercing the air.
