The Ultimate Prodigal Son - Chapter 255

[Chapter 255: Being tricked again]

As for what would happen to the real master behind the governor, Lin Tian was not worried at all.

What he had to consider now was how to make this governor their own man.

At least he had to make this governor think that he was their man.

“Then…what should I do next?”

He still didn’t understand. Even if he returned to Ningjiang City, he had nowhere to go.

“I say, Li Tianlun, are you mentally ill?”

Lin Tian rolled his eyes at him helplessly.

The governor, that is, Li Tianlun, scratched his head with a look of bewilderment, his chest still heaving violently.

“The master asked me to save you, so of course I made preparations!”

Lin Tian said, and walked to the stream next to him to scoop water and wash his hands.

Then, without Li Tianlun reacting, he dragged him into the depths of the jungle.

This is a dense forest in the wilderness outside the capital. It is said that there are hungry wolves in it, so few people dare to go deep.

But Lin Tian went in without caring. Li Tianlun kept observing carefully, and his calves were shaking.

“Huh–“

After walking to a relatively open place, Lin Tian suddenly put his hand in his mouth and blew a whistle.

Soon two horses came out from the woods.

“Let’s set off before dawn.”

Lin Tian said, and took the lead to walk to a horse and straddle it.

Although Li Tianlun was very tired now, he did not dare to disobey Lin Tian, and could only follow his movements and straddle the horse.

Because Li Tianlun was really unfamiliar and weak, it took Lin Tian two days and two nights to reach Ningjiang City.

At this time, the work of rebuilding the embankment had already entered the main topic.

“Master, you are finally back!”

Lin Kang has been worried about Lin Tian’s safety these days. Hearing that someone had robbed the prison in the Tianlao in the capital, and the robber had died, he was completely distracted.

It was not until Xu Wenxuan said that the dead person was not Lin Tian that he swallowed his heart back from his throat.

“Why worry about it? I will be fine.”

Lin Tian did not take his worries seriously. He threw the whip to the servant next to him and went back to rest.

Li Tianlun followed Lin Tian with a sense of uneasiness, but Lin Kang and the others did not react at all when they saw him, as if he was a stranger. It was

not until the evening that Lin Tian had time to see him.

“You are now a criminal. We can only wait for the man in the prison to be executed before we can find a way to let you leave.”

As soon as he saw Li Tianlun, Lin Tian directly stated his thoughts.

What he said made sense. The prison break was a hot topic. If there was no substitute in the prison, I am afraid they would not be able to return to Ningjiang City so safely.

“Then what should we do now?”

After two days and two nights of stability, Li Tianlun’s emotions had calmed down, and he began to think about his own way out.

He never thought that Lin Tian and he were actually in the same group.

But why did Lin Tian personally send him to the prison?

“All this is the master’s intention. You have to put yourself in danger to survive. What’s more, you have attracted the attention of people in the court now, so this is the only way.”

As if he could hear Li Tianlun’s voice, Lin Tian explained again.

His explanation was even more reasonable, and Li Tianlun nodded with a look of sudden enlightenment.

“As for now, there is still some time before you are beheaded, and there is no status here that can keep you safe. You can only temporarily do hard labor for a while.”

Lin Tian frowned, looking very embarrassed.

But this was what he meant.

This guy has never suffered, and the construction of the dam was also caused by him, so he must suffer.

“Master, I am already grateful for saving me! Not to mention hard labor, I am willing to work like a cow or a horse!”

Li Tianlun said firmly.

When he recalled the dark days in the prison, he couldn’t help but feel a chill on his back and tremble all over.

Now that he has completely escaped from the prison, he can endure any hardship as long as he can live!

“It’s good that you think this way. The master will definitely appreciate you when he knows.”

Lin Tian nodded with satisfaction.

“Now that there are more and more workers building the dam, it is not difficult to sneak one of them in. However, we still need to do something to conceal our tracks. We must not let anyone find out that you and I are in the same group.”

As if to conceal something, Lin Tian said very seriously.

And every word he said made sense. Li Tianlun could not find any room to refute and could only nod blankly. He

looked like someone who was sold out but still helped others count money.

“Of course, this is no problem. Master Lin, please help me!”

Li Tianlun’s attitude was very low at this time, and he didn’t have the high-spirited look when he was the governor.

If it wasn’t confirmed that he had rescued this person himself, Lin Tian might have suspected that this was a substitution.

After all, it was as if he had been reborn!

I have to admit that this governor is really flexible!

“When the time comes, the master will naturally find a way to let you escape.”

Lin Tian instructed him again, asking him to stay in this courtyard for two days. After he made arrangements, he would naturally send someone to pick him up.

Li Tianlun was of course obedient. Except for his daily life, he hardly stepped out of the door.

It was as if no one had ever been to this courtyard.

Two days later, Lin Kang brought a foreman to find Li Tianlun.

This foreman was naturally Erniu, but Erniu knew him, but he had no impression of Erniu.

After all, he was just a small worker, and he didn’t need to remember him at all.

“Old thief…”

Erniu gritted his teeth when he saw Li Tianlun. If Lin Kang hadn’t been holding him back, he would have rushed up and beaten him up.

“Bear with it, you will have a chance to take revenge later!”

Lin Kang whispered.

For the sake of Master Lin’s overall situation, Erniu clenched his fists and endured it even if he hated Li Tianlun.

“This is your foreman, this is the refugee who came to seek refuge yesterday, take him to do some work!”

Lin Kang made a simple introduction to the two of them, pretending that he didn’t know Li Tianlun.

“To be able to eat like this, I guess his life was very easy before!”

However, Erniu’s attitude was not very good, he squinted and squeezed a few words.

Li Tianlun was also angry, but thinking that all this was for him to escape, he endured it.

So Li Tianlun was taken to the construction site and began his truly dark days.
