shock! I was actually reborn with the system

Chapter 40 Misfortunes never come singly 4

When Nan Sheng saw that Xiao Tudou was still calm and composed with his eyes closed, he didn't have the panic or fear after being kidnapped. Instead, he felt like he was on vacation.

Lu Qingmeng was concentrating her energy while listening to Grandpa Cheng talking about the whereabouts of the robbers.

"They seem to have some remaining manpower coming here. Once all the men are here, they will smuggle you out through the waterway."

"After taking them out, they are going to cut off a piece of your finger and give it to Shen Xinghe. This way, they can get the money without worrying about retaliation."

Hearing that he wanted to cut off one of his fingers, Lu Qingmeng opened his eyes unmoved and looked out through the window. It was already midnight. The group of robbers had already fallen asleep, and the sound of snoring came one after another through the old came from the concierge.

All is ready except for the opportunity.

Nan Sheng was woken up from his sleep by a burst of thick smoke. When he opened his eyes, he could only see the burning fire like a fire snake devouring everything. He covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves while looking for Little Potato in the darkness with his eyes.

Before he could take a few steps, he was tripped by a beam that collapsed not far away and fell. For a moment, his ankle hurt so much that he curled up unconsciously. He was anxious and powerless, so he could only shout loudly despite the noise of smoke and dust: "Little Potatoes! Little potatoes!”

"If you don't want to attract people, just be quiet." Lu Qingmeng slowly walked out of the darkness like a ghost at this moment, covered Nan Sheng's mouth and nose with a piece of wet cloth, and ignored his probing eyes. He lifted him up from the ground.

Yes, plan C is to set fire.

Let the robbers think that they are still in the sea of ​​fire, so that they can buy more time to escape, especially if Nan Sheng's ankle is delayed any longer, it may become the root cause of the disease.

"Where are we going?" Nan Sheng has never seen a woman like Lu Qingmeng. Even though her face is stained with some dust, it still cannot hide her unparalleled elegance. She seems to have everything under control. She is obviously the first He left that room at once, but he was able to avoid the sea of ​​​​fire behind everyone and leave without anyone noticing.

"The Ferry" all relied on the help of three wandering souls. Without them, she would not have been able to implement the plan so smoothly.

"Why go to the ferry?"

"We were all deceived by Scar!" Scar was actually very smart. He did withdraw money in Qinghe Town, but his clever deception was that he obscured their correct location.

Give them a glimmer of hope and let them think that as long as time lasts longer, someone will definitely come to save them.

But in fact, this is Scar's delaying strategy. It seems that they are stalling for time, but in fact, Scar is conniving at them.

Because Scar is also waiting for another group of robbers to come over and join him!

"Qinghe Town is in the southwest, and we are in the northeast."

The three wandering souls had figured out the location of this place long ago, and the place they were in was actually a little worse than they imagined.

"We are on a semi-abandoned island." Her words were very soft, as if she was saying that the weather today is very good.

"The aboriginal population on the isolated island is less than fifty, and Scar had thought from the beginning that he could hide his eyes from others and take advantage of the other half of the people to take advantage of this inconspicuous ferry to leave by boat."

"What if the ferry is guarded?" Nan Sheng was full of doubts. Xiaotudou was locked in that broken room with him, so why didn't he know anything, but she was like a manipulator who controlled the overall situation.

"That's why there was a fire." Lu Qingmeng carried Nan Sheng and walked for almost ten minutes. The two of them did not dare to walk on the main road, so they could only walk through the forest while it was still dark.

The two of them were exhausted, especially Lu Qingmeng who had to hold her breath to carry Nan Sheng so far. The pain in the back of her head became more and more clear, and her expression became dazed with every step she took.

"Whether there is anyone guarding the ferry or not, we must draw everyone's attention to putting out the fire, so that we have time to escape." Lu Qingmeng lost the last bit of strength and her feet went limp. Fortunately, Nan Sheng's eyesight and hands were quick to catch him. With support, the two of them were like homeless people sleeping in the open air, relying on each other to rest for a while under the big tree.

The breeze blew by, the sound of water slowly gliding by, and the unknown insects chirping softly.

"Little Potato?" Nan Sheng couldn't help but whisper. He was really curious about why this little Golden Potato had such courage and was able to lead a semi-disabled person out of the siege despite being surrounded on all sides.

She closed her eyes tightly, biting her whitened lips, and her forehead was covered with sweat.

Only then did Nan Sheng realize that something was wrong. He quickly reached towards her forehead, and his fingertips slightly touched the back of her head, which was stained with scarlet blood.

Fever caused by wound infection and inflammation.

"Let me be quiet for a moment." Lu Qingmeng struggled to open her eyes, looked at Nan Sheng's anxious eyes, and forced herself to smile.

This smile is probably uglier than crying.

Lu Qingmeng woke up Ga Bang in his mind and asked if he could get a loan to buy some goods to help him in such a predicament of walking on thin ice.

Ga Bang seemed to be in a bit of a dilemma, but seeing that his host was in such misery, he would definitely suffer a loss if he didn't help, so he could only issue a task. As long as he completed the task, he would be rewarded with a lucky bag. This did not violate the regulations of the Novel Archives Bureau.

Extract relevant information about Mr. Jiang from Nan Sheng.

"Who is Mr. Jiang?" Lu Qingmeng knew that Ga Bang was also trying his best to help him, using such a simple task to obtain the lucky bag.

Nan Sheng didn't seem to expect that Xiaodou would ask him this question, but he still answered honestly: "My...stepfather"

"Godfather?"

The air between the two of them seemed a little frozen, and Lu Qingmeng wondered if this godfather had an inappropriate relationship.

"It's hard to hear you talk like that." Nan Sheng held back this sentence for a long time, thinking in his heart that he seemed to be his godfather. After all, the two were not related by blood.

"The first time I met him was in the orphanage. He was dressed in a Chinese tunic suit. He looked as gentle and elegant as a teacher in the Republic of China."

"Later he adopted me, a child of unknown origin, and he taught me how to read and how to behave."

"Later, he became very busy and couldn't see me once every ten days and a half. But every time he came back, he would bring me a sycamore branch, saying it was his most beloved girl's favorite thing."

"But, he is just an old bachelor. Where can he find his beloved girl?"

"In short, Mr. Jiang, in my opinion, he is like a fog, making everyone who is close to him unable to help but understand him."

Mission accomplished, please receive your lucky bag.

As if hearing a voice from heaven, Lu Qingmeng quickly opened the system to see what useful things the lucky bag could produce.
