Huang Jianzhen's silly and comical actions immediately made the villagers laugh. Niu Xiaobao asked, "Benefactor Huang, how did you get the free time to come to our village?"
"Is the village chief home? I want to talk to him. Your identity is not even on par with mine! " Huang benevolent said.
"My grandfather is no longer here!" A hint of worry surfaced on Niu Xiaobao's face. "You're late!"
"W-what?" Huang Shengren was greatly surprised. "It can't be that fast?"
"What the hell are you doing here? Is there a need to be so shocked? " Mo Yunqi asked.
"I heard from the people below that this village had a plague and many people can't live anymore, so I wanted to come over to take a look and understand the situation. If it's really as they said, then I'm willing to immediately prepare some silver to help them save some lives!" As he said this, he tilted his head and looked inside the house. He saw the villagers' faces filled with tears and wailing. He could not help but let out a sigh. "Oh, it's so sad. It's so deadly!"
When Mo Yunqi saw this, she sneered and said, "The plague has already caused such a commotion, and now you're pretending to come here. You sure know how to pick a time!"
Hearing this, Huang Shengren waved his hands and shook his head back and forth like a rattle drum, saying, "No, no, no! You have wronged me! "I am not here to make a fool of myself. I am busy every single day saving people and have no time to examine them. Otherwise, how could I sit idly and watch such a great event happen?"
When Du Jiangsheng heard this, he immediately asked, "Since you've already seen the truth, what do you plan to do next to help these poor citizens?"
"I plan to," Huang Jianren slipped back into his words and sized him up before asking, "Child, do you have someone in charge here?" Can you call an adult out to talk? I'm talking to you like a rat gnawing on a wooden crate – teeth grinding leisurely! "
Mo Yunqi heard his words and clearly saw herself as a child, so she shouted, "What do you mean? Say it clearly! Talking to us, how can you be grinding your teeth like that? "
Huang Jianzhen forced a smile. He did not know how to explain himself, but a voice came from behind him. "Who's making a ruckus?"
When Du Jiangsheng saw this person, he immediately shouted, "Master, you came at the perfect time! "A kind person came here and said that he wanted to help the refugees, but he couldn't find the person in charge to discuss it with us, so he ended up arguing with us!"
When Meng Chun Lou heard this, she went up and clasped her fists, saying, "Greetings, great benefactor!"
Huang Jianzhen looked up and down at Meng Chunlou and thought to himself, "He must be from Meng Chunlou. His looks are indeed extraordinary!"
When he thought here, he cupped his fists and smiled, "Sure, sure!"
"Now that the village is in trouble, these lives are in danger and they need help. If the benevolent men can generously support them, these people will definitely be able to escape their doom. In the future, when they write a book, they will be able to erect a monolith!" Meng Chun Lou laughed.
"Ai!" Huang Shengren waved his hand and said, "Are we doers of good for those false reputations? But just ask for a decent conscience! Great Hero, tell me about the situation here and let me know exactly what happened. "
However, Niu Xiaobao was different. He was a member of the village, as well as the grandson of the village head, so he knew the village's situation as well as any outsiders. Therefore, Meng Chunlou called him over to explain the village's situation in detail.
It turned out that there were more than two hundred families living in this tiny Huang An Village. After getting rid of the dead villagers, there were still about four hundred living people in the village. Since the people of the Ru Yi Hall were guarding the village, the food outside could not come in.
As for drinking water, he could only drink the stinky water from the river to survive.
The more Huang Jianzhen listened, the more agitated he became. Tears even flowed out of his eyes. He sighed and said, "Lanqian Qiankun, to think that there would be such a lamentable people. It's truly touching!"
He patted his chest and said: "Don't worry!" "With me here, these villagers will definitely not starve to death or die from thirst. I will definitely let them have a hearty meal!"
When Niu Xiaobao heard his words, a look of anticipation appeared on his face. He immediately knelt down in front of Huang Xiaolong with a thump and said, "Thank you for your blessings, big benefactor Huang. I thank you on behalf of the villagers!"
"Don't be in such a hurry to kowtow," said Huang Shengren as he helped Niu Xiaobao up. "When I'm done, I'll send some food over!"
"What else does Benefactor Huang have?" Meng Chunlou frowned and asked.
"Of course there is. Furthermore, it is related to the life and death of the Pingyang Sword Master, Old Master Peng!" Huang benevolent said.
"Oh?" Meng Chunlou could not help but feel puzzled, "What actually happened?"
"This is the antidote that the Hall Master Wu of the Ru Yi Hall sent me. He knew that Old Master Peng had been poisoned, but didn't have the face to come here and deliver the antidote, so he gave it to me. I also had a affair with Old Master Peng, so I'm happy to do this!"
"Is that so?" Meng Chun Lou didn't take the antidote from Huang Jianzhen's hands and instead said with a sneer, "How did Hall Master Wu know that the great benefactor Huang is coming here?"
Huang Shengren smiled and said, "The hero might not know about this, but I have a good relationship with Pavilion Master Wu. When I heard that he had come to Yangzhou, I rushed over to pay him a visit. "Why, is there a problem?"
"No!" However, I have one more thing to ask! " Meng Chun said.
"Hero, please ask!" Huang benevolent laughed.
Meng Chunlou smiled indifferently and asked, "I heard that you said Pavilion Master Wu was ashamed to come here. Was it because his subordinate did so many heinous things?"
Huang Shengren gave an embarrassed smile and said, "I'm not sure about that, but it's more important to save him now. I hope that you can immediately help him with the medicine!"
Meng Chun Lou smiled bitterly and said, "Since Pavilion Master Wu has the intention to give me medicine, why do you need to secretly shoot poison needles at me?" Isn't this supposed to be seen by others? "
"Hero, I don't know what this is all about. I only know that as long as this medicine can save Old Master Peng, he can't refuse it. In my opinion, everything should be done in the best interests of the greater picture!" Huang benevolent said.
Meng Chunlou gritted his teeth and took the bottle. Just as he was about to enter the house to save Peng Gao, Qiu Ying called out, "Great Hero Meng, give the medicine to me. After all, I've learned some medical skills from Master.
Meng Chun Lou immediately gave the medicine to Qiu Ying and asked, "Great Benefactor Huang, since you are determined to save him, is there anything you need our help with?"
Huang Shengren looked around and then sighed, "Oh, this village is dead and wailing. Normal people would get sick even if they didn't. What's more, they are all sick people here? I think it's better to invite them all out, find a place to settle down, and slowly treat their illnesses. What do you think? "
"This isn't appropriate!" Meng Chunlou firmly rejected Huang Shengren's suggestion. "These villagers are too weak to travel far. If they leave the village now, someone might not be able to hold on!"
"But how can I bear to see them suffer here?" Huang Shengren sighed and said, "How about this, we just wait for them to recover a little before leaving. When they are back again, they will come back. After all, this village is infected with the plague, so we have to clean it up thoroughly before we can live here."
"That's fine!" Meng Chun said.
Hearing this, Huang Shengren clasped his hands together and said, "If that's the case, then I won't be staying for long. I'll immediately go back and arrange for some men to bring the food here to resolve this urgent matter!"
"Thank you for your trouble, kind man Huang!" Meng Chunlou thanked him with a sincere expression.
Huang Shengren nodded and turned to leave. However, there was a cloud of dust at the entrance of the village as a man and a woman hurried over. He frowned and asked, "Isn't that Yan Jiuniang? Why is she here too? "
Meng Chun Lou looked over and saw Gu and Yan dragging a camphor tree along the road. He smiled and said, "Everyone has the heart to save others. We can't distinguish one another!"
"Well said!" Huang Shengren personally went over to greet him, saying from afar, "Miss Yan, it's been a long time!"
Yan Jiuniang looked at Huang Jianzhen in surprise, then said with a smile, "I really didn't expect that kind-hearted man Huang would appear here. I'm sure that the villagers of Huang An Village can be saved!"
"Hahaha!" Huang Shengren laughed heartily. "Lady Yan's words are more than enough for me to appear in front of you as a saint!"
"Great Benefactor Huang, since you're here, why don't you go in and have a cup of tea?" Yan Jiuniang asked.
"No need, I'm still busy saving people!" "Farewell!" He turned around and walked out of the village. Soon, he was nowhere to be seen.
Yan Jiuniang smiled sweetly as she walked in front of everyone. She told Chun Mo and the others to wash the camphor tree and cut it into small pieces before putting them into the pot to boil the medicine. She smiled and said, "With this benevolent Huang, the villagers can finally be saved!"
"Do you know this Huang Siliang very well?" Gu Yiyang asked.
"He is Yangzhou City's most famous great sage who runs all over the place. Wherever he is in trouble, he will be there. The citizens will call him Bodhisattva Huang!" Yan Jiuniang said.
"Is he rich? "Otherwise, how can you support his charity?" Gu Yiyang asked.
"More than just money!" Yan Jiuniang gave a faint smile, "It's said that the amount of money in his family has never been counted before! Moreover, the businesses he has set up are spread throughout the entire country, and he manages almost all the profitable businesses. He has even opened more than a hundred banks! "
"Oh my god, he really is as rich as a nation!" Gu Yiyang sighed.
"The most precious thing is that after he earned the silver, he did not do it for himself, but for goodness' sake. This is more than ten thousand times stronger than those unscrupulous profiteers!" Yan Jiuniang sincerely praised.
"Sigh!" "There should be more such people in the martial arts world!" Meng Chun Lou sighed.
At this moment, Qiu Ying hurriedly ran out, loudly shouting, "Not good, old man Peng vomited blood!"
With this cry of surprise, almost everyone from Meng Quan's group rushed over. Yan Jiuniang could not care less as she was the first one to rush into the room, scaring the villagers to the point that they felt as if they had seen a madman!
On the sickbed, Peng Gao was breathing rapidly, his face was ashen, and a trace of blood was hanging from the corner of his mouth. When he saw everyone, he opened his eyes a little, and sighed: "I'm afraid I won't be able to live much longer! I have yet to take revenge for the grievances that I have suffered! "
Yan Jiuniang touched his wrist, and could not help but be shocked, and said: "How could it be like this? Did you give him anything to eat? "
"Eat the pills that Huang Shengren sent over!" As Qiuying spoke, she handed the small porcelain bottle over to Yan Jiuniang. She opened the bottle and took a sniff at it, then said in shock, "This isn't an antidote, it's clearly another type of poison! This is too hateful! "
"What?" Meng Chunlou was so angry that he shouted, "This beast! I will settle this with him! "
While he was speaking, he walked towards the door. He heard Peng Gao call out, "Young, Young Hero Meng!"
Meng Chonglou's heart was filled with anger and he forced himself to stop. He turned around and asked, "Old swordsman Peng, what are you trying to say?"
"I'm going to die," he said. "But I haven't had my wish yet. Can you promise me one thing?" Peng Gao asked.
"Do you want me to seek justice for you?" Meng Chun Lou asked.
Peng Gao shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I don't care, but my family members died unjustly. If Great Hero Meng can seek justice for them, then even if I die, it will be enough for me to comfort them!"
Hearing this, Meng Chunlou felt his heart churning like a tidal wave. He clenched his fists tightly and said with a painful expression, "I will definitely give you an explanation for this!"
"Then please!" He looked up at the ceiling as if he had seen many familiar faces. He tried to reach out with both hands to grab them in his arms, but it was all too late.
"Swordsman Peng!" Meng Chun Lou shouted loudly, but there was no response. Yan Jiuniang hurriedly probed Peng Gao's breathing, frowned and said, "He fainted!"
"Is there any hope?" Meng Chun Lou asked.
"Without the antidote, he won't last six hours!" Yan Jiuniang said.
When Meng Chunlou heard this, he could not help but say coldly, "Enough!"
At this point, he started to walk outside, but he heard Yan Jiuniang ask, "Where are you going?"
"I want to ask Wu Weidao!" Meng Chun said.
"Stop!" Yan Jiuniang cried out, "Your skills have not recovered yet. If you go now, aren't you asking for trouble?"
"Then I'll go with him!" Gu Yiyang followed out of the room with his sword in hand.
"Why aren't you guys obedient?" Yan Jiuniang smiled bitterly, "What if this isn't the case?"
However, no one could understand her worries, and no one could believe it. After all, when people were angry, they had no reason!
Meng Chun Lou didn't expect Gu Yi Yang to chase him out of the room. He took out his sword, stared at Gu Yi Yang, and said with a deep voice, "Meeting Wu Xiang Dao is the same as a big battle!"
"I really look forward to this battle!" Gu Yiyang smiled.
"Once the battle begins, the outcome will be hard to determine!" Meng Chunlou reminded.
"It's just a splash of blood. I've seen it too often!" Gu Yi Yang smiled as he looked at the sword in his hand, "Moreover, I still haven't met anyone that can kill me!"
"experts are as common as clouds in the Fulfillment Hall. I don't care about you when it comes to hand-to-hand combat!" Meng Chun said.
"You're too long-winded!" Gu Yiyang was irritated, "Go or not go?"
Meng Chun Lou didn't say anything else as she turned around and walked away.
Gu Yiyang slightly smiled and followed, only to hear Mo Yunqi loudly shout behind him, "Wait for me!"
Gu Yiyang didn't care about her words because he didn't want to bring her along at all!
When a man was about to go risk his life, who would bring a woman? Moreover, this woman loved him so much!
Mo Yunqi tightly held onto Gu Yiyang's arm, and almost begged, "Bring me with you, I beg of you!"
"Don't follow me, I'm begging you too!" Gu Yiyang's eyes were firm and decisive, exuding a cold and domineering aura, causing Mo Yunqi to instantly freeze over!
Then, like an obedient child, she stared dumbly at Gu Yiyang as he slowly disappeared from her line of sight …
