Chapter 192 A Windfall
The flashes of swords and sabers flashed in the mountain temple.
A silent siege began.
The rain outside was getting heavier, and the disadvantages of the young people became more and more obvious.
He didn't know whether he was injured or sick, his breathing became more and more rapid, and even his reactions slowed down. He was struggling to cope with the situation, and soon he had several wounds on his body, and his clothes were stained with blood.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, even though he was forced to the point of being injured several times, he still tried his best to stay away from that corner.
During the fight, the fat man discovered a woman lying on the ground and exclaimed, "There's someone over there!"
In this moment of distraction, the young man seized the opportunity and stabbed the man in the chest with his sword.
"Ah..." With a short scream, the man turned into a corpse.
His companions were furious, and the fat death made them explode and attack at the same time.
The young man stretched out his sword to block, and with the force of the three men, he rolled to the side, picked up something on the ground with his left hand, and threw it out. It was a stone, which hit the man with triangular eyes on the forehead.
Triangle Eyes' attack faltered and he lost his balance instantly. The young man took the opportunity to rush forward and pierced his throat with a sword.
The remaining two people seemed a little frightened when they saw this.
But looking at their opponent, the young man was covered in blood and it seemed that he had difficulty even holding the sword. Looking at their companions on the ground, they quickly adjusted their mentality and attacked the young man again.
Meng Cheng had already been frightened by the fight, the blood, and the flashing of swords and sabers. He covered his mouth desperately to prevent himself from screaming out in fear.
The young man is dead!
But the young man seemed to burst out with a powerful force. With a flash of sword, his body was like a winch, and both he and his sword dived into the water like a fish, rushing past the two men.
The weapons of the two men fell to the ground, and their bodies also fell to the ground. Their eyes were wide open, and their unwillingness could still be seen.
The young man staggered and used his sword to support himself to stand.
His eyes were bloodshot and his look was terrifying. He turned his head and looked at the woman lying on the ground. He did not move for a long time, but his breathing became heavier.
Meng Cheng looked at the man and he understood.
He also went to the Qihongyuan in the county town and saw how people who took drugs to help them get in the mood. When Wang Mazi's bull in the village was about to mate with a cow, Wang Mazi gave the bull that kind of drug, and the bull's eyes turned bloodshot.
That young man was poisoned by that drug.
He actually fought with others even after taking the drug. The drug was completely activated.
Meng Cheng didn't dare to breathe, and suddenly a white light flashed before his eyes.
A knife passed over his nose and stabbed into the wall beside him.
He thought he was hiding well, but in fact he had been discovered long ago.
A low, hoarse voice was filled with murderous intent: "Turn your back. If you dare to peek, I'll dig out both of your eyes!"
The coldness at the tip of his nose and even the bloody smell on the knife frightened Meng Cheng so much that his eyes rolled back and he fainted instantly.
He had no idea what happened next.
When he regained consciousness, he was kicked awake.
When he woke up, the night was over and the day had dawned.
The young man stared at him with a cold and sinister look, and he trembled with fear.
The young man carried him to the middle of the ruined temple. At this time, the four bodies there were gone, and the place where there was blood was also covered by weeds and dust.
The woman was still lying on the ground, her clothes neatly clad, but she was obviously different from before.
There were obvious marks where the clothes didn't cover them, and he knew exactly what they were.
This young man used that woman as an antidote!
But he didn't dare to say.
This was the man who had killed four people in front of him, even though those four people were chasing him.
Meng Cheng knelt down tremblingly and said tremblingly: "Good man, I, I didn't see anything, you, you please forgive me!"
The young man's gaze was dark and unfathomable.
He stared at Meng Cheng for a long while. When Meng Cheng was about to lose control of his bladder, he asked quietly, "Who are you? Why are you here?"
Meng Cheng didn’t dare to answer, nor did he dare not to answer: “I, I, I… Baibai, Baiwu Town, Taotao Taohua Village…”
"What's your name?"
“Meng Meng Meng Meng… OK!”
The young man took out a handful of silver, which also contained two banknotes, and threw it at Meng Cheng's feet.
Meng Cheng didn't dare to move. Instead of killing him to silence him, he gave him money?
The young man looked at him, then pointed at the girl over there, paused, and said, "Here's the silver for you. Take good care of her for me! I'll come find you in a year, and I'll give you a generous reward then!"
Meng Cheng was stunned. The banknote was worth fifty taels each, and together with the silver, it totaled more than one hundred and fifty taels.
This is a windfall!
"Don't let her know about me!"
Meng Cheng grinned and his eyes kept rolling around.
The young man was silent for a moment before explaining, "I'm in trouble now. If people know that you've seen me, you won't be able to escape. You should pretend to be a couple, go home normally, and live a good life. Do you understand what to do?"
Meng Cheng was stunned and nodded quickly.
We just can't let people know about this person's existence. With so many people chasing him, this person might be a desperate gangster or a villain who has committed numerous crimes.
Even if he didn't have that money, Meng Cheng wouldn't dare to speak nonsense.
What's more, this person also promised to reward him with a large sum of money in the future.
After the young man finished speaking, he hurried away with the bloodstained sword.
Meng Cheng hurriedly picked up the silver and banknotes on the ground and put the money in his arms. He felt like he was dreaming.
Even though the Meng family had some wealth, such a large sum of money was almost as valuable as all the wealth left by his father.
In their countryside, one tael of silver could support them for a year, and they could not only eat white rice, but also have meat every now and then.
There's nothing wrong with taking care of a woman.
Thinking of the four vicious men chasing the young man, the injuries on his body, and his tone, it was obvious that he was in big trouble.
Meng Cheng thought of a solution almost instantly.
I don’t know if the illness was sucked away or if it just made the woman feel better, but after the woman woke up, her illness was mostly cured.
Meng Cheng immediately knelt in front of her, pretended to slap himself, and admitted that he had made the mistake involuntarily, but he would take responsibility.
Seeing his sincere attitude, the woman was stunned for a long time with red eyes. Finally, she compromised and went back to Taohua Village with him.
He also knew that her name was Zhao Susu and that she worked for a wealthy family. Later, the wealthy family laid off all the employees. She wanted to find her parents, but she didn't know the way and was sick, so she fell into a coma in the dilapidated temple.
Meng Cheng was actually a little proud of himself for bringing back such a beautiful woman.
However, thinking of the young man, the bright red blood on his sword, and his cold eyes, Meng Cheng still felt frightened and he did not dare to touch her.
After returning to the village, Zhao Susu fainted once.
Meng Cheng thought of the young woman's promise that she would come to see him in a year, so he immediately asked Doctor Zhang to take her pulse. Only then did he find out that she was pregnant!
He thought that when young people came, they would offer a buy one get one free deal and there would definitely be more generous gifts.
