The three of them said, "We know, we know. No matter how curious we are, we must hold it in and wait until Uncle is here to see!"
"Well, it's late, let's get some rest. We still have a lot of things to do tomorrow." As soon as he finished speaking, Huangfu Ning lay down on the simple bed and fell asleep unconscious.
Thanks to Huangfu Ning's efforts over the past few days, as long as the three brothers brought their supplies back tomorrow, they would be able to deal with the group of zombies that Xiahou Qing had hidden in Qinghe County. When the chaos broke out, they could take advantage of the chaos to bring Huangfu Zhong out. After so many days of hard work, the results were about to come, and they needed to be well-rested to deal with the series of events that followed.
Just before Huangfu Ning was fully prepared, Shi Zairong finally, after an inner struggle and Lin Feng's questioning, told him that Su Zhirou had committed suicide because of him, and that Lin Zhenzhen was now in a state of dementia due to the miasma in Zhiyoulin.
After hearing what he said, Lin Feng felt as if he had just dreamed, confused and unreal: "Is everything you said true?"
Shi Zairong was suddenly at a loss for words. This man was truly strange. It would have been fine if he had kept asking, but when he told her, he had this strange expression on his face: "What else? What good would it be for me to lie to you?"
Lin Feng sat in the chair blankly, his whole body looking as if he had lost all his soul. His eyes were somewhat dull: "...Why do I feel like I'm dreaming?"
Shi Zairong couldn't help but feel distressed when he saw him like this. Those people in the Lin family, on the surface, would say nice things to everyone, but in reality, they hadn't asked a single question about Lin Feng for so many years, as if this son didn't exist at all. According to his understanding, when the Xiahou clan gave up everything and decided to come to Liang State, the Xiahou family had done their best to help them behind the scenes. Such a comparison really makes people sigh: "If you want to pay tribute to Su Zhirou, I have given her ashes to Tang Chen. Zhenzhen is also free from their care."
"Zhenzhen is from Nanyue after all..." Lin Feng always felt that he had let Liang State down, and naturally, he was really worried about Lin Zhenzhen's safety in Qingliang Valley. She had been taken away, but what if Tang Chen and his men didn't take good care of her and bullied her?
Shi Zairong patted his chest and said that he had 100% trust in Tang Chen's character. Moreover, he had previously inquired from Tang Chen about her opinion on Lin Feng. For her, Lin Zhenzhen was definitely the best choice at the moment. "Don't worry about that. It was Lian Xin who came to pick her up that day. As a brother like you, you naturally know who Zhenzhen is dating. I believe you should also be at ease with Lian Xin."
Lin Feng had witnessed the relationship between Lian Xin and Lin Zhenzhen. Ultimately, it was he who had implicated Lin Zhenzhen. "...It's me. I'm sorry to Zhenzhen. If it weren't for my mistake, she wouldn't have left Qinghe County."
Shi Zairong patted Lin Feng's back and comforted him, "Without your protection, she might not be safe for long in Qinghe County. Everyone has their own destiny, but at least she's still alive, isn't she? As long as people are alive, there's still hope. If you want to see her, I can help you arrange it."
Lin Feng shook his head slightly and said, "...No need. Knowing she's safe now makes me feel a little relieved. Let's solve the problem at hand first. The Shengxi Gu has been handed over to the Huangfu father and son for many days, why haven't they made any move? Can these two people really be trusted?"
It was natural for Lin Feng to have some suspicions about Huangfu Bin and his son. After all, it was someone from their Huangfu family who had caused the zombie incident. A thief who had embezzled money suddenly demanded not only return all the stolen items but also take the full responsibility. Anyone with a criminal record would be suspicious.
Shi Zairong said, "I personally still trust them. They've been reluctant to start the experiment, perhaps because they still have some concerns."
"But time waits for no one. It's a good time to take action while Xiahou Qing is still in the capital." Now everything is ready, and they are reluctant to take action. If they have any concerns, they should be told. We can't let them keep guessing here anxiously.
Shi Zairong sighed slightly and said, "They are the only ones who have the method to deal with the Shengxi Gu. All we can do is wait and see. What we think is a good time may not be what they think it is."
The matter of the living dead happened because of the Huangfu family, and now they can only rely on the Huangfu family. Since Shi Zairong has said so, Lin Feng can't say anything more: "You have the final say here. If you say wait, then continue to wait."
The serious question was brushed aside. The dead cannot be resurrected, but judging from Lin Feng's expression, it seemed that Lin Zhenzhen's story had touched him more deeply. Seeing this, Shi Zairong felt a moment of insignificance towards Su Zhirou's death. Dying for someone who didn't love him was really foolish.
Shi Zairong had already told him everything he needed to know. It was a great relief that Lin Feng had finally returned alive. His health had been poor to begin with, so he needed to take good care of himself. He had been nearly short of supplies, but thanks to the alliance with Qingliang Valley, Tang Chen had been very considerate and secured a good amount of supplies for the South Vietnamese soldiers. Now, he had everything he needed.
"I see you haven't been in the best spirits lately. Not only have you had trouble eating or sleeping, but you also seem a bit constipated. Do you want me to ask a doctor to come and take a closer look at you?"
Lin Feng's expression gradually became dull: "How do you know about my eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping..."
Shi Zairong explained seriously, "I care about you. Even though I look like a cheerful person, I can count on my hands the number of people who can be considered my friends. Now that Hong Yu is not here, I can only care about you more after dinner."
Speaking of Hong Yu, Lin Feng's mind immediately flashed with the image of this girl in a stunning red dress: "Hui Jue is still in Qingliang Valley now, right? Speaking of which, when I first saw her, I just felt that the expression between her eyebrows and eyes looked somewhat familiar. If you hadn't reminded me, I really wouldn't have realized it was her."
Shi Zairong pulled out the folding fan from his waist and said, "Anyway, I've made up my mind now. Regardless of whether I can win or not, regardless of the outcome, I'll marry her once things are over here. Really, you don't know how scared I get when I see a man hanging around her. You don't know, the guard next to Tang Chen is called Qiu Liang. I only got a closer look at him the last time he came to my place. Wow, he's quite a decent-looking guy."
