Rebirth: Re-entering the Jianghu

Chapter 24: Encountering a Swindler on the Road

The four of them were walking on the road when a man came running towards them from a distance and bumped into Luo Xiao. He then hid in the crowd.

There were too many people and he couldn't find the person for a while. Luo Xiao jumped up high and found the person in a blink of an eye. He flew over and grabbed the person.

The reason was simple. Just now, her wallet was stolen when she bumped into him. In broad daylight, why not do something else but rob her? Why?

The man caught by Luo Xiao was crying and telling about his miserable experience. Luo Xiao turned around and saw Mu Xing and the others followed him.

Several people wanted to stop and listen to why this person wanted to rob others of their money. They only heard him say, "I grew up in a poor family and never had a good life. My father was addicted to gambling, my mother was bedridden, and I had a younger brother who was studying."

The family needed so much money that he was obsessed with doing such a thing. After hearing this, the four of them sighed for a while.

They decided to give the money to this poor man, hoping that his family could live a better life with the money. It happened that they had nothing to do, so they decided to go and see this family to see if there was anything they could do to help.

The man on the road tried to refuse in every possible way, and I was so moved that I burst into tears. My name is Wang Er, and no one has ever been willing to care about me. Today I really met a good person, and good people will have a peaceful life.

Several people came to this house, but did not see anyone else. Only his mother was at home. His mother looked pale. Luo Xiao said, "I have learned some medical skills. Let me take a look at you first." At this time, the woman hurriedly shook her head.

Luo Xiao looked at her and found that her pulse was very strong, not like she was sick, so she understood. She remained calm, asked about her health, and said goodbye to Mu Xing and the other three.

After seeing Wang Er return home, Luo Xiao said that the family were all liars and that the woman did not have any disease at all and was probably deceiving people.

Using other people's sympathy to make money, I still remember when we proposed to go to his house, he looked very flustered, and something was wrong from then on. A normal person would be very excited when hearing that someone was going to visit his parents.

He was just pretending to be touched, and there was only one person in his house, and her pulse was obviously normal. Let's go and have a look.

I think the man must have been threatened. His house is a little messy, so we have to go and rescue him.

In the hut, after Wang Er sent Luo Xiao and the other three away, he returned to the hut and started to scold them. "You bastard, did you find these people to arrest me?"

Let me tell you, if I die, your parents will also go to accompany me. I almost forgot, what about your brother? He doesn't know anything? Because you are going to die. What do you think we should do?

Wang Er knelt down in front of the woman and said, "You told me that you would not hurt them as long as they work for you. But you don't keep your word."

The woman slapped Wang Er directly, and Wang Er was knocked out of the door, where he was caught by Mu Xing who came rushing over.

Luo Xiao raised his sword and rushed towards the woman. The woman took out a knife from the bedside and the two fought. However, the woman didn't last long in Luo Xiao's hands because the sword was put to her neck.

Luo Xiao took off a human skin mask from the woman, revealing her true face. The woman then gathered her strength and slapped Luo Xiao in the face.

Qing swung his hand and instantly hit the woman herself. "Who are you and why are you hurting people here?"

Wang Er recovered and said to Luo Xiao, "My benefactor, please ask her to tell me the whereabouts of my parents." The woman said, "If you have something to worry about, just find it yourself." Then she closed her eyes and said, "It's up to you to decide whether to live or die."

As for the whereabouts of his parents, I won’t tell you. It’s better for you to find them yourself. Qing was very angry. “Why are you like this? You’ve been caught, but you’re still stubborn.”

But he didn't care, he just closed his eyes and repaired his wounds, and several people started searching in the house. Mu Xing helped Wang Er into the house, and several people started knocking on the house.

Only a sound was heard coming from the wall, and several people hurriedly started looking for the mechanism here. The scrolls on the table were moved, and a wall opened like a door.

Wang Er's parents were finally found. They had been imprisoned here and were finally freed today. Wang Er quickly helped his mother to the bed. His mother had been ill for a long time and had not recovered.

He didn't know when he was locked in a secret room by this woman who appeared out of nowhere. After he bought the fish and returned home, a knife was put to his neck.

This strange woman threatened him, "If you don't listen to me, I guarantee that your parents will suffer a miserable end. If you listen to me, I might consider letting them go."

In a few days, four people will appear on the street, three women and one man. I want you to bring them here. After that, I will release your family.

Unexpectedly, today she slapped him away. He only went out to cheat a little money occasionally, and because of this matter, he was always unwilling to talk to his father.

If he hadn't been a gambler and had gambled away all the money for his mother's medical treatment, how could this have happened? Now that he had just been rescued, he was itching to go gamble.

Seeing this family like this, Mu Xing stared at Wang Er's father with sharp eyes, "I think a man should be responsible. Since you married a wife, you should treat her well." If you can't do it, don't say love easily. In the end, she was bedridden.

The burden of this family falls on your son alone, what about your responsibility? If you gamble again next time, I will kill you. After hearing what he said, Wang Er's father swore that he would not gamble again.

Luo Xiao took Wang Er's mother's pulse, prescribed some medicine, and asked him to get the medicine for his mother. After taking the medicine, his mother looked much better.

Wang Er looked at them gratefully. Luo Xiao and the others left some money for Wang Er before they left, asking him to start a small business. Don't lie to others anymore. Your brother still has many people and things waiting for you. Don't let life make you become someone else.

As for the woman who broke into someone else's house and threatened others, she took advantage of the time when no one was paying attention and ran away. No one paid attention to her, but they didn't want her to cause a lot of trouble in finding the Five Elements Formation. Of course, this is a story for later.

At this time, the four people looked at the appearance of this family and planned to meet the king of the Fire Nation to ask about the Five Elements Formation. According to Wang Er, only the king would know these things.
