Harvest

Bang!

The copper lock hanging on the ebony box was patted open, and Lin Sheng reached out to open the door of the box, revealing that it was full of things.

What comes into view is a pile of glittering gold ingots and various gold and silver jewelry.

Although quite messy, the portion is quite heavy.

"I didn't expect that although this group of thieves is not very powerful, they have accumulated a lot of money."

Lin Sheng's eyes lit up, and he bumped the half-human-high wooden box with a smile on his face.

There is definitely two to three thousand taels of silver in this box.

As for the treasure banknotes he lost, they have also been recovered from the thieves, and they are even a little more than what he lost.

Blood Cultivating Pill There is one grain missing, but it doesn't matter anymore. It's only two or three hundred taels of silver, which is nothing compared to the harvest in front of me.

Woof...

A clear dog bark sounded from the other side, Lin Sheng grabbed the ebony box and walked over.

Da Huang's cry was obviously a sign of discovery.

The fact was exactly what he thought. When he got closer, Da Huang was circling around a pile of dried meat, but the dried meat was hanging on the high beams. It kept jumping, but it was still more than one meter away from the dried meat.

Lin Sheng jumped up and picked all the dried meat from the beams. Finally, he tore off two pieces of dried meat and generously threw them to Da Huang, who was waiting eagerly.

"It's time to leave."

By now, most of what he had lost had been recovered, and he had earned an extra two to three thousand taels of silver, which also made him feel very good.

He gently kicked Da Huang, who was engrossed in chewing.

"We'll eat after we go back."

After saying that, he turned around and headed outside the camp.

Da Huang, on the other hand, wolfed down a piece of dried meat, holding another piece of dried meat in his mouth, and trotted out after Lin Sheng.

This bandit camp suffered heavy casualties. Ninety percent of the bandits died in his hands, and the remaining ones had already run away when they saw the opportunity. At this time, the camp was empty, except for him, of course.

Neither the person nor the dog moved slowly, and soon they were at the edge of the camp.

Meanwhile, below the camp.

An underground space with only dim light was filled with the stench of feces and urine that made people cover their noses.

On both sides of the space are cages made of wooden stakes as thick as a bowl.

The cage was filled with people, all of them were sallow and thin, and most of them were languid and huddled on the ground.

There were a few people with relatively clean clothes, but they were sitting on the ground with bruises and swollen faces.

In the cage near the outside, Wang Dehai was leaning against the dirt wall. His two eyes were swollen, and one cheek was obviously larger than the other.

"Bah!"

He opened his mouth and vomited out a mouthful of bloody phlegm, but because the movement was too big, it seemed to affect the wounds on his body, making him grin.

"I didn't expect that I, Wang Dehai, would end up here after all my calculations were done. Alas..."

He sighed after the pain passed.

Looking at the messy environment in the cell and the lifeless and empty-eyed people around him, a trace of despair inevitably emerged in his heart.

"What on earth did these bastards bring us here for?"

He sighed, thinking about this problem in his mind.

When these bandits robbed them, they did not kill them immediately, but locked them all here. Obviously, they had other intentions.

Although I don't know what they want to do, it's definitely not a good thing.

"I'm only in my 30s, I'm still young, I don't want to die..."

He muttered, his voice getting louder and louder, and he glanced at the other people in the same cage around him.

Trying to get the surrounding companions to resist with him.

However, the other people in the Qiu Prison didn't even look at him, as if they didn't hear him. They still huddled together and didn't move.

"You idiots, are you just waiting here to die?"

Wang Dehai scolded these people while looking up at the outside of the cage.

There was no bandit in the cage at this time. In his opinion, if these people cooperated together, they might have a chance to break the wooden stake and escape together.

Although being able to escape from the wooden pile does not mean that they can escape from this bandit camp, it is at least better than waiting to die here.

Just looking at these dead fish-like prisoners, he cursed with hatred, and immediately stood up and mobilized Vital Blood in his body, raised his hand and smashed hard at what he thought was the thinnest wooden stake in front of him.

"Rampaging Bull's Headbutt."

There was only a muffled bang, followed by a heart-rending howl.

"Ouch!!"

Wang Dehai's fat body fell to the ground, covering his right hand and rolling continuously, making a pitiful sound like a slaughtered pig.

He clearly felt that his right hand must be broken.

Glancing at the wooden pile, the wooden skin on the wooden pile was broken, revealing the dark iron pillars inside.

"Fuck!!"

Seeing this scene, he couldn't help but curse, but soon he continued to howl miserably.

Now he finally understood why the people inside looked half-dead and didn't respond at all to his proposal. They had obviously suffered a lot from this.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but want to scold his mother.

But the despair in his heart became more and more intense. He covered his right hand and grinned at the corpses piled up in the shadow of the corner of the cage, and his eyes gradually became depressed.

Those corpses obviously accepted their fate and did not want to suffer here, so they chose to kill themselves.

At this time, he had already accepted his fate in his heart. Instead of eating swill-like leftovers here every day and being beaten frequently, it would be better to choose to commit suicide.

Thinking of this, he seemed to have made some kind of determination, and his eyes gradually became a little sad.

The man stood up tremblingly and took off his belt from his waist. He looked at the wooden stakes above the cage and with a heart, he lifted the belt up and tied it into a knot tremblingly.

After checking the knot's strength to make sure it could bear his own weight, he sighed heavily.

He wiped the moisture from the corners of his eyes with his dirty sleeves. Immediately his heart skipped a beat, he jumped up and hung on the knot.

The strong pressure from his neck made his eyes widen, his mouth wide open, and his short legs kicked back and forth.

The other people around him only glanced at this scene with lifeless eyes and then withdrew their gazes with no surprise.

"Uh... uh... uh..."

Wang Dehai kept making low whimpering sounds, and subconsciously tightened the knot with both hands, trying to alleviate some of the pain, but it had no effect at all on its fat and heavy body.

Soon his eyes became blurry, and he felt his consciousness slowly dissipate.

He seemed to hear a muffled sound in a trance, but at this time, he no longer had the energy to pay attention to it.

And in the next moment, he suddenly felt the pressure on his neck relax instantly, and his dissipating consciousness immediately gathered.

Cough cough cough...

He coughed violently and rolled his eyes, as if he was still alive.

Just as two clear slaps sounded, Wang Dehai felt pain on his face, and his consciousness gradually recovered.

Ignoring his already swollen face, his divergent gaze condensed, only to see some familiar faces frowning at him.

"What's going on? The fat man hasn't thought about it yet. Could it be that he really hanged himself?"

Lin Sheng frowned and looked at the embarrassed fat man, thinking whether to give him another two slaps.

Just now he was preparing to leave the camp with Da Huang, but suddenly he heard some subtle noises coming from the underground. He quickly realized that there might be a hidden space under the camp. After thinking for a while, he decided to come down and take a look. After a simple search, he quickly found the entrance to the underground space in a tent.

Open the door to the underground space, and as soon as you enter, you see Wang Dehai hanging himself.

At this moment, Wang Dehai's image was much different than before, but he quickly recognized the other person. Although he didn't know why the other person was here, but seeing that he was hanging himself, he immediately kicked the cell door into pieces and rescued him.

Just looking at Wang Dehai's appearance at this moment, it seems that he came in a little late.

Just when he raised his palm again, preparing to slap harder, Wang Dehai took a breath and sat up.

His face was red and he was breathing heavily. He was stunned for a moment when he saw the person in front of him, but he quickly recognized him.

"You... you are Brother Lin!!"

As if unsure, he rubbed his eyes vigorously.

"Yes, it's me."

Lin Sheng grinned and said.

"Where are the bandits outside? Why are you here!? Could it be that you were also caught..."

But when he saw the big hole in the cage door, he realized something and his words stopped abruptly.

"I have dealt with the thieves outside."

Lin Sheng smiled and spoke.

Wang Dehai's eyes widened in shock, and after a while he burst into laughter, with a look of ecstasy on his face.

"I knew... I knew that I, Fatty Wang, the destined person, the lucky star Gaozhao, would not die like this in this inhospitable place."

"Okay, tell me, what's going on? You're not in Lin'an County City, why did you come here?"

Lin Sheng patted Wang Dehai and asked.

Knowing that he was not going to die, Wang Dehai smiled happily and immediately told what happened.

After listening to it, Lin Sheng also felt a little emotional.

"Town Mountain Tower really no longer exists?"

In his previous conversation with Yellow Dog, he had already understood that Town Mountain Tower was definitely one of the forces being liquidated, and the so-called Chen Family probably couldn't escape either.

Just from what I heard from Fatty Wang, Lin'an County City's current situation is very chaotic, but if you think about it carefully, it is right. After all, the forces in the county have been completely shuffled, and it is time to re-establish the hierarchy, so the chaotic situation is normal.

"Brother Lin, I didn't expect you to be alive. When I heard that Yangping Town happened, I thought you had encountered something unexpected. I knew that Brother Lin was definitely not a lucky person with his appearance."

Wang Dehai also felt a little emotional at this time. At first, he really thought Lin Sheng was dead.

After all, Yangping Town's situation is much more serious than a narrow escape.

"Brother Lin, what are you going to do with these people?"

Remembering that there were quite a few people trapped in this underground cell, he asked Lin Sheng again.

"These people were all captured. Since the bandit has been eliminated, let's let them all go."

When he first entered this underground space, he was a little surprised when he saw this crowd of people.

After all, at a glance, there are probably two to three hundred people in these cells.

You must know that the number of thieves who died in his hands was only 100.

There are so many people hiding underground, and this underground space is also a large amount of work.

While he was thinking in his mind, he had already arrived outside the cage, and shot like lightning to smash open the prison door.

The lifeless people in the cell seemed to be rejuvenated and rushed out of the cell crazily.

Lin Sheng took Wang Dehai with him, followed by Da Huang. The two of them and the dog also left quickly.

Ta-ta-ta-ta...

There were two people and a dog on the carriage, and there was an ebony box at the back.

This carriage naturally came from the bandit camp, but it was just right enough to pull the ebony box and Wang Dehai behind it.

At this time, Wang Dehai was stuffing some noodles into his mouth and eating like a starving ghost reincarnated.

It wasn't until he swallowed more than a dozen noodle cakes in a row and drank a gourd of water that Wang Dehai wiped the corners of his mouth and showed a look of enjoyment on his face.

"It's been a long time since I've had such delicious pancakes... burp..."

"This group of damned thieves has no idea what's wrong with them, and they have trapped so many people."

Wang Dehai said after eating and drinking, burping.

"Speaking of which, Brother Lin I was shocked that you were able to kill that group of bandits. I didn't expect that Brother Lin your strength has already reached this level."

Fatty Wang seemed to suddenly remember something and looked at Lin Sheng in surprise.

Only then did he realize that Lin Sheng seemed to be the only person from beginning to end. No, there was also a dog.

The entire bandit camp was wiped out.

You must know that in the convoy he was in, the captain of the guard in the Muscle Forging realm world was seriously injured by a direct blow from the master of this group of bandits.

So there was definitely a master among this group of thieves, but even so, they were still destroyed like this.

"It's just luck, but this group of bandits obviously has some purpose in going to such great lengths to capture and imprison people alive."

Lin Sheng shook his head slightly.

The more he thought about this matter, the more he felt something was wrong. You must know that more than two to three hundred people eat a lot of food every day, and Wang Dehai also said that the longest person imprisoned here has been almost a month.

Imprisoning people for so long obviously has some purpose, and if so many people are needed, I'm afraid things won't be simple. There are definitely forces behind it.

Thinking of what he said when he killed the bandit leader.

"Government?"

Lin Sheng was driving the carriage, frowning slightly.

He wouldn't have thought about it before, but after talking with Yellow Dog, he already understood that human life is worthless in many cases.

Or it can be said to be some kind of resource consumable.

"That's all. The bandits this time have been basically killed. No matter what the force behind them is, they can't be found on their head."
