Chapter 1215: Zhao Xingzhou, Heavily Injured, Disappears On
as the happy-go-lucky one in their family. Just looking at his expression now made her feel joyful."What's over" he asked, his voice couldn't help but laced with amusement.“Jade Lotus, she’s been poss...Chapter 1215: Zhao Xingzhou, Severely Wounded, Disappears On the Spot
On the way back, Fang Jinshu called A Sheng over to her side.
He spoke in a voice only the two of them could hear.
"A-sheng, I want to give your village a task."
She wanted to say that completing the mission would bring more rewards. After all, when everyone in Lühé Village first moved here, they had nothing. Her space, however, had everything she needed except for a house.
So she could give them many things they needed, allowing their villagers to return to normal life more quickly.
Before she could even finish her sentence, Ah Sheng readily nodded in agreement.
"Whatever you need us to do, Fang girl, just say it. You don't need to give us anything else."
Fang Jinxiu looked at the simple-faced young man before her and decided to take a chance.
"If I said I wanted you to work for me"
A Sheng was taken aback, not quite understanding the difference between this and what he had just said.
He scratched his head, "Even if you don't take me in, I would still do things for you."
Fang Jinshu shook her head. "It's not like that. You can think of it as an employment relationship, but this matter is very important. If even a tiny bit of information leaks out, I will kill you."
Where else could be more suitable for a hidden weapons factory than the Western Xia Desert and this forest
Yes, she was going to turn Lühé Village into an arms factory, and Ah Sheng was the factory manager.
All villagers in Lühe Village must participate in making weapons for her, and they must keep it a secret.
But she doesn't trust verbal promises.
Fang Jinshu's eyes showed a hint of pity. Her palm flipped, and a white porcelain bottle appeared in her hand. She poured out a black pill from inside.
"This is a deadly poison, but the person who eats it won't die immediately. As long as they take the antidote made from my prescription every three months, the poison won't take effect."
"But the prescription can't completely detoxify."
"I need to acupuncturize your whole body and then have you drink my specially concocted antidote for a complete cure."
As soon as he heard it, Ah Sheng swallowed nervously. It wasn't that the poison was tempting, but he was a little scared.
"Miss Fang means for me to eat this poison and do your bidding"
Fang Jinshi nodded. "If you don't want to, I can find someone else. As for tonight, pretend you never heard anything."
As soon as she finished speaking, she saw Ah Sheng had already taken the poison pill from her palm and swallowed it.
Fan Jinshu was surprised to see him, "Aren't you afraid of death"
"You never said you'd make me die," A-sheng replied, looking puzzled. "As long as I kept it secret and did what you asked, you'd give me the antidote, right"
As long as he keeps it confidential and does his job well, that's all that matters. He never intended to be a loose cannon anyway. He promised confidentiality, and he'll keep his word.
If eating poison would make the young lady feel more at ease, then I wouldn't hesitate to do so. You'll still give me that short-term antidote that lasts for three months, won't you
A Sheng laughed carefree, his completely trusting attitude deeply moved Fang Jinxiu.
"Don't worry, those who work for me, I will never mistreat them."
This gave her the true desire to think about what was best for the people of Lühé Village. Although she still needed to go to the capital of Xixia, discovering iron ore here in Lühé Village was also a major event.
She even imagined how surprised Aruto would be when he received the weapon she had sent him on the battlefield.
She would show her man, with her actions, that he wasn't alone in the fight.
If we promised to meet again in three years, we must keep our word.
Fang Jinshi left a mark in front of the cave. Since there was no one else here besides them, she didn't bother to cover the entrance.
Even if someone were to discover this forest in the future, with so many ferocious beasts within, those who entered might not be able to find this place.
They found their way back to the summit meadow. By this time, the village head had directed the villagers in setting up eight or nine thatched shelters.
When people don't get enough sleep, they squeeze together. Men sleep with men, and women sleep with women.
Seeing Fang Jinshu return safely, Ah Sheng was over the moon.
"Jinxiu Jie, how is it Did you find Brother Zhao's body"
Fang Jinshi shook her head in disappointment.
Ashen was also, but he quickly cheered up. He was afraid that his emotions would affect Fang Jinshu too. This period of time, Jinshu's changes were very big. Although she didn't say it out loud, deep down, she still cared about Zhao Ge's life and death.
"Tomorrow we will continue to search in the woods."
Asheng really wanted to speak up and ask to go together, but Fang Jinshu didn't give him a chance. She had already walked over to Lü Cunzhuang's side.
She passed him the seeds she had prepared beforehand.
"This is the reward I promised Ah Sheng, he helped me a great deal."
Originally, Mayor Lv was hesitant to accept it. But when Fang Jinshu said that it was seeds, he was overjoyed and immediately took them.
“Is this a seed We haven’t seen vegetables in our village for many years, it's wonderful!”
Having seeds means they can be self-sufficient and greatly reduce the risks of going out in the open.
Lü He Village has already been burned down by the authorities, and the county magistrate is dead. Even if a new county magistrate arrives soon, I'm afraid these people would have already been recorded as fugitives by the officials.
The later county magistrate would only treat them as fugitives, so Elder Lü had already made up his mind to not go out if he could avoid it.
Now that they had the canola seeds, there was even less reason for them to go out.
It would be even better if there were still seeds for food.
The next day, Fang Jinshu went out and brought back two large horse-drawn carriages, along with a whole carriage full of supplies. Most necessities for eating, drinking, wearing, and using were available.
They even have the farming tools used to cultivate fields.
If we're building an arsenal here, we need the basic necessities of life.
These people are all her treasures now, not one can die.
A Sheng still found it strange to see so many things. Before, because of Zhao Ge's death, the people in Lü He Village had always been cold and distant towards Jin Xiu Jie. Although she saved them, it didn't feel like it came from the heart.
Now she no longer feels that way. After going into the forest yesterday, she has become increasingly invested in the development of Lühé Village.
After half a month, Fang Jinshu and everyone from Lühe Village had searched the entire forest, but they still couldn't find any trace of Zhao Xingzhou.
Even she found it strange. Could Zhao Xingzhou also have a space like hers to hide in
If he hadn't died, there's no way we wouldn't have found any trace of him.
If he died, the wolves would have eaten his flesh and blood, but bones should be left behind, right Wolves don't eat bones. And there would still be some clothing and scraps of fabric left behind.
No, none of that.
Zhao Xingzhou just disappeared like that.
When the pack of wolves attacked, Zhao Xingzhou saw Fang Jinshi and Ah Sheng successfully escape the wolf pack's attack range. He immediately turned around and fought with these beasts.
During the fight, he sustained several wounds of varying degrees from wolf claws and teeth.
The wound that almost cost him his life was in his lower abdomen, with a gaping five-centimeter gash in his stomach, exposing his intestines.
At that moment, Zhao Xingzhou also thought he was going to die, but he didn't regret it.
As soon as he thought of Fang Jinshu surviving, a slight upturn appeared at the corner of his mouth, preparing to face his final destiny.
But just then, the sky suddenly churned with wind and clouds, splitting open with a bolt of purple lightning. The lightning struck right in the middle of the pack of wolves.
The next second, Zhao Xingzhou, who was seriously injured, vanished from the spot.s momentary recklessness.Zong Yu returned to his own tent with a sullen face, and Zhao Yun, his lieutenant who had followed him for three years, immediately greeted him."Brother Yu, did Lord Gu ask yo...
