The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 109
[Chapter 109: There is something unusual around]
In order to prove what he said, Lei Dian even jumped up and moved around.
He threw a set of punches vigorously to prove that he had really recovered and could go out.
Since he became a secret guard and started practicing martial arts, he has not rested for such a long time like now.
In the past, no matter how badly injured he was, he had to endure the pain to perform the mission.
The only difference was that the mission he performed when he was injured would be relatively less difficult, not so difficult.
After all, he was worried that the mission would fail because of his injury.
“Don’t move, you will have to stay for a few more days if the wound is opened.”
Lin Tian glanced at him coldly, and just this look made Lei Dian dare not speak again.
Although Lin Tian was kind and friendly to them on weekdays, he also had a kingly demeanor.
“Okay, I will try my best to recover quickly!”
Lei Dian clenched his fists and said confidently. He now does everything according to what Lin Tian said.
If Lin Tian asked him to go east, he would never go west!
Although he felt that his whole body was rusty after resting for so many days, and the moves he had learned before were gradually becoming a little rusty.
But since Lin Tian was doing this for his own good, he couldn’t continue to insist. After
all, Lin Tian was the master!
“It’s only two days. If your wound recovers at this rate, you can go out with us in two days. I don’t know what the city is like now.”
Lin Tian spread the crushed herbs on Lei Dian’s wound expressionlessly. Because she changed the dressing diligently every day, the wound was not inflamed at all.
This is what Lin Tian is most worried about.
There were no anti-inflammatory drugs in ancient times. If it got inflamed, the consequences would be disastrous!
Fortunately, Lei Dian was lucky. It should be because of years of exercise that his physique was very good.
Everyone rested for a while, and Lin Tian resumed his previous daily work. Only Lin Kang was left in the cave to accompany Lei Dian.
This day was uneventful, and everyone was looking forward to the action in the next two days.
Now they can be said to be recuperating, just waiting for Lin Tian to go out in the next few days to make new discoveries.
This is considered as no new discovery, at least some unnecessary places have been eliminated, so the work they do later will be relatively simple.
After a hasty meal, several people began to sleep, and someone still had to keep watch at the entrance of the cave.
This is someone else’s nest, and it is dangerous for them to rest and recuperate here so openly.
But in the second half of the night, there was a clanging sound from somewhere, as if someone was knocking on something.
“Did you hear the sound?”
Lin Kang was sleeping in a daze, and was also awakened by the sound. When he woke up, he found that everyone was awake.
He sat up and saw that Lin Tian’s face seemed a little unpredictable, so he asked.
“I was awakened by these sounds. It seems that we accidentally walked into their nest!”
Lin Tian said, and then looked at Lei Dian deeply with his eyes.
What he was most worried about was Lei Dian’s wound. Although it has almost recovered, it still needs a two-day transition period.
Otherwise, if he accidentally made a violent movement, he would be broken free.
“Master, I’m fine!”
Lei Dian seemed to sense what Lin Tian meant, so he stood up and said firmly. He had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.
Every time he wanted to play his role, Lin Tian would refuse because his wounds had not yet healed.
This made Lei Dian regret why he was not more careful at the time and was so careless!
But this experience made Lei Dian pay more attention and become cautious.
He didn’t want to get hurt again and let Lin Tian take care of him personally!
This time was enough.
“That’s fine, you have to pay more attention to yourself!”
Lin Tian said after hesitating for a while, perhaps this was a plan in the dark.
Several people quickly got up and packed up casually, and each took their most suitable weapons.
Those bags were not conducive to walking, so they found a hidden place and hid them all.
If they needed it, they would come back to get it.
“Bring some wound medicine.”
Lin Kang reminded, stuffing some of the most basic wound medicine and gauze into his clothes.
He was still worried about encountering any accidents and dangers. If someone got injured again, it would be terrible.
Lin Tian nodded and did not refuse him. This was indeed necessary.
They slowly walked towards the place where the sound came from. The closer they got, the louder the sound seemed.
Finally, they came to a small hillside. There was a huge hole next to the hillside, like a cave.
There was a faint light here, and with the moonlight, it was as bright as day, and all the scenery could be seen clearly.
Lin Tian and his companions hid in the dark, looking at the scene over there through the gaps between the trees.
“Who are these people?”
Lei Ting asked in a low voice. These people were all young and strong laborers, but they looked thin and weak.
With a look of grief and despair on their faces, they worked mechanically without knowing how to work like a living dead.
“These people should have been forced to come here to work.”
Lin Tian made a bold guess. After all, the expressions on their faces did not seem to be voluntary.
“But where can we find so many people! These people are missing, won’t they be discovered?”
Lin Kang raised his question, but he realized something as soon as he asked it, and his face was suddenly full of surprise.
He turned his head to look at Lin Tian, but saw that Lin Tian nodded at him with affirmative eyes, and the two brothers Lei Ting and Lei Dian also had solemn faces.
Yes, they all couldn’t help but think of the legends of Guiling.
The young and strong laborers who came to collect firewood before disappeared overnight without knowing it!
Then the legend that there were ghosts on this hillside spread, and some people came to look for them bravely, and even the government sent people to investigate the case.
But those people were just like the woodcutters at the beginning. They all disappeared without a single one left.
“But where are the women and children who came to look for their families?”
Lin Kang still didn’t understand.
Since these laborers are required to work, the women and children who are looking for their families should not be able to work.
So where did these people go?
“No matter who they are, they still have to eat.”
Lin Tian said.
Those women are probably here as logistics, taking care of these people’s daily lives.
And those who are old, sick or too young to work have only one fate.
Being brutally killed!
Lin Tian took a deep breath. There was an indescribable smell in the air, like the smell of iron.
It was the smell of blood!
