Chapter 254: Checking the truth
He wanted to find other people, but there was no trace of other people in this desolate place, so he had no choice but to drag his injured leg and leave alone.
But as he walked along the familiar road, he saw many things that frightened him.
Broken limbs and legs, almost a corpse every ten meters, and he was very careful about those corpses, all of which were the thugs brought by the rich young man.
At that time, all the water and food were destroyed in the sandstorm. He was thirsty and tired, and almost had hallucinations. He unknowingly deviated from the correct course until he saw an oasis.
Before he could rush up to drink water in excitement, the oasis suddenly disappeared, and then the figure of the rich young man appeared.
At this time, the rich young man, due to lack of water, was holding a dead body and drinking blood non-stop. He looked like a ghost, and scared him so much that he almost turned around and ran away. The rich young
man had some skills, and when he saw him, he rushed towards him.
When he was about to kill him, he said that he could take the rich young man out of this ghost place.
In this way, the rich young man let him go.
They stayed in the desert for three full days, during which time they met another living person. Unfortunately, his other arm was broken, but his will to survive was very hurt. After bandaging himself, he survived until now.
In the end, they got out, and a layer of skin was also lost. The remaining foot became lame because it was not treated quickly at the time.
After that, Yu Sheng became afraid of that place. Fortunately, the rich young man gave him a large sum of money. In addition to the reward for leading the way, he also kept his mouth shut.
The reward was enough to support Yu Huai's medicine for two years. Just like that, Yu Sheng withdrew from the caravan and looked for other jobs.
Unfortunately, because he was lame, many jobs didn't want him. He could only do those very hard work jobs, with little pay. Until now, it can be considered that it can barely support Yu Huai's expenses for illness.
But as Yu Huai's condition worsened again, the money he had could no longer support the next medicine. Just when he was anxious and at a loss, Jiang Yuzhi came to him.
"That's all."
Yu Sheng was so thirsty that he gulped down a large glass of water.
After hearing this, Lin Baoer believed him a little. Just when she wanted to ask him if he was willing to lead the team again, Lin Zhishen shook his head at him secretly.
So she could only hold back and swallow the words in her throat.
After leaving Yu Sheng, Lin Baoer asked doubtfully, "A Shen, are you still doubting him?"
Otherwise, why not ask him directly if he was willing to lead the team again, and she would definitely give him a generous reward.
After all, she also saw that Yu Sheng loved his sister very much and was willing to risk his life to cure his sister's illness. Now they were short of money. Maybe if they begged a little, Yu Sheng might agree.
Jiang Yuzhi followed the two of them, also very puzzled.
But Lin Zhishen just said, "Wait a little longer."
After returning to the inn, he told Lin Baoer his idea.
After all, he didn't trust Jiang Yuzhi very much, nor did he believe what Yu Sheng said, so he wanted to verify it himself.
"We searched for two days and didn't find any news, how come she found it right away?"
Lin Baoer was confused, "But Ah Shen, Miss Jiang shouldn't lie to us for outsiders..."
Lin Zhishen gave her a calming look, smiled gently, and touched her head, "I know, so I'm just afraid that she was deceived." I
was afraid that she was being led by the nose without knowing it.
So he didn't say directly that he still doubted this matter, because he was afraid that Jiang Yuzhi would think too much after hearing it, and that she was afraid that they still didn't trust her.
This can also be regarded as the soft side of Lin Zhishen's heart.
It's not that he couldn't see Jiang Yuzhi's sincerity towards them. On the contrary, because of what happened in his childhood, he could easily detect people's hearts and knew that Jiang Yuzhi must be thinking about them sincerely, otherwise he wouldn't have been doing this quietly these few days, and he didn't take the initiative to mention the previous incident after they met.
After thinking it through, Lin Baoer also agreed to verify it first.
Money talks, and after another day, they deliberately inquired about Yu Sheng's situation, and they really found out a lot of things.
Eighty percent of them were what he said, and the other twenty percent were not exactly the same as what he said.
He said that he withdrew from the caravan because of fear, and while recuperating, he also cherished his life.
But the rumor in the market was that he was expelled from the caravan because of his incompetence. Twelve people died in a team, which sounded scary.
Moreover, the rich young man who came out did not speak for him. He just said that Yu Sheng led the way recklessly, which led to this situation, and put all the blame on him.
Yu Sheng's reputation was ruined because of this. No one asked him to lead a team anymore, and he became silent.
"Which one do you believe?" Lin Zhishen asked her.
Lin Baoer pouted and thought for a while, then hesitated, "Actually..."
She believed Yu Sheng more. Most of the rumors were untrue, and there were many fabricated rumors. Moreover, according to what Yu Sheng said, if he really led people to die, why did he save the rich young man? Wouldn't it be better to just kill him and silence him?
And the money, if the rich young man didn't give it to him, where did Yu Sheng get it from? It's impossible for a rich young man to give him money while slandering him, right?
True or false, false or true, it seems that Yu Sheng's logic is more convincing.
"I think so too." Lin Zhishen smiled, "Let's go find him again tomorrow."
Knowing that Lin Zhishen should let down his guard, Lin Baoer breathed a sigh of relief, and the big stone in her heart fell to the ground.
In fact, she was reluctant to give up after finding this person with great difficulty, especially what Yu Sheng said, which made her stop thinking that she would die in the desert alone, which would be a loss.
So the next day they called Jiang Yuzhi together and went to the slum again.
But before they could ask, Yu Sheng took the initiative to say, "I know why you are here, but I have promised someone to lead the way for them."
His face was not very good, and his tone was very gloomy.
The three of them frowned, wondering how this person could be kidnapped by others in just one day.
Just when Lin Baoer was about to speak, she suddenly sniffed her nose and suddenly said, "Your sister is not here?"
Yu Sheng looked at her in surprise, as if wondering how she knew.
"It's none of your business, please leave."
Yu Sheng ordered them to leave.
Lin Baoer was kicked out, but she didn't show any displeasure, just kept thinking.
"There is a problem." Lin Zhishen said first.
Lin Baoer glanced at him and nodded, "The smell of the medicine has obviously become lighter. If the medicine is boiled every day, it should be about the same as the last time we came."
