~7 min read 1,357 words

Ye Heng's words made Zeng Yan's eyes redden instantly.

Zeng Yan never imagined that two people who had only met once, strictly speaking not even friends, could do this much for him.

Zeng Yan knew that no matter how deeply they thanked them at this moment, they could never repay this kindness.

Zeng Yan silently made a decision in their heart: if they could truly get through this, they would swear death-defying loyalty to Ye Heng, and from now on obey his commands.

Zeng Yan still needed a few days of rest, while Ye Heng was concerned about the affairs of Bi Hu Suo; he did not stay to wait for them but left some food behind and led his people back to Bi Hu Suo first.

Before leaving, Ye Heng specifically took Zhang Yuan and Zhang JiaJia aside and said softly to them:

"I know you're not the type to accept restraints; my Bi Hu Suo will be recruiting externally for the near future, so if you've decided, you can come find me anytime."

"But before that, I want to entrust you with looking after Zeng Yan's team for a few days; once Zeng Yan can move, I'll hire you to escort them to my Bi Hu Suo."

"Upon completion of the mission, I can pay a certain amount of supplies as remuneration—food, fuel, or medicine—and you may state your demands."

Zhang Yuan, upon hearing this, naturally agreed immediately.

Leaving aside that they already had some acquaintance with Zeng Yan, even if Ye Heng hadn't mentioned it, Zhang Yuan intended to stay and look after Zeng Yan's team.

After seeing the medical supplies Ye Heng produced with his own eyes, Zhang Yuan found it even harder to refuse.

He immediately said:

"Yes, as payment, I want the medicine you just took out."

Ye Heng agreed without hesitation.

On the way back, Ye Heng thought for a moment and told Lin Meng about the past few days.

Upon learning that Bi Hu Suo had gained a new member, and that the honest, big-built Zeng Yan, whom she had met once with Ye Heng, had actually been seriously injured, Lin Meng couldn't help but sigh.

In the Fe Tu Shi Jie world, even a small wound could trigger a serious infection, even death.

Without the medicine Ye Heng gave, Zeng Yan would likely be in grave danger.

Ye Heng thought and said:

"Lin Meng, if possible, could you provide me with some more medical supplies? This time Zeng Yan's injury made me realize that medical supplies for treating wounds need to be stockpiled."

Just treating one person's wound used up two large bottles of saline.

The Yunnan Baiyao used to help wound healing also consumed an entire bottle.

Since Ye Heng wants to expand the scale of Bi Hu Suo, medical supplies are also indispensable.

Upon hearing this, Lin Meng naturally would not refuse.

She thought and said:

"Give me a few days to prepare; many medicines cannot be privately purchased in large quantities here, so after two days, once I've gathered a batch, I'll send it over."

Ye Heng felt a surge of emotion, about to say he would go gather more gold, silver, and jewels, when Lin Meng said:

"You don't need to give so much gold, silver, and jewels anymore; did the ten weapons you mentioned earlier arrive?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Heng's brows furrowed instantly.

"Yeah, why haven't those ten weapons been delivered yet?"

"I still trust Luo Song's character; he said days ago he'd arrange for someone to bring them, so why is there still no news today?"

After thinking, Ye Heng replied to Lin Meng.

"Perhaps Luo Song is held up and hasn't sent them yet; I'll go myself. If you need them urgently, why not give me the supplies my brothers and I are using?"

Lin Meng shook her head repeatedly, but she wasn't in a hurry either.

"I was just wondering; it's fine if they haven't arrived yet—just let me know when they do."

After cutting off contact with Ye Heng, Lin Meng thought for a moment and called Qin Feng.

"That uncle came specially last time to talk about Chen Yuqi's matter, and now Chen Yuqi has been in jail for several days after a mishap—why hasn't he come to show his face?"

The phone remained in a state of being connected but unanswered; after three consecutive calls, no one picked up.

Lin Meng frowned, a doubt rising in her heart.

After thinking, she pulled out Li Ping's number and called again.

Li Ping answered, but the background noise was very loud, as if someone were arguing.

"Hello? Is this Miss Lin? Sorry, sorry, I've run into some trouble here; can you wait a moment and call me back?"

Lin Meng spoke concisely, without extra words, only saying:

"Fifth Lord Qin's phone has no answer; I'll look for him."

Upon hearing this, Li Ping frowned and looked toward the not‑far‑off Fifth Lord Qin, who was fighting.

"Well, Miss Lin, the lord is busy right now; how about we wait a bit…"

"You bastard, I've told you not to mess with my family—you've got the guts of a bear and leopard's gall to dare move my Qin Feng's people!"

At that moment, Lin Meng clearly heard Qin Feng's angry cursing in the conversation.

Li Ping's heart jolted; he quickly hung up, hid his phone, and pretended nothing had happened.

After the call was hung up, Lin Meng pursed her lips, feeling somewhat powerless to complain.

If she heard correctly, this rebellious uncle Qin Feng was fighting someone, right?

A person in his early forties, yet acting like a twenty‑something yellow‑haired kid—truly fitting the label of a middle‑aged rebellious uncle.

Lin Meng thought for a moment and sighed helplessly.

She could only call Xiao Chen and ask him to help purchase a batch of medical supplies.

Xiao Chen acted very quickly; moreover, the Ye Family already had some pharmaceutical enterprises, so the next morning he delivered all the supplies Lin Meng had requested to the warehouse.

After personally receiving the goods and placing them in the First Space, Lin Meng was about to head back home when she thought of Qin Feng, so she called again to get in touch.

This time the other party answered, but the voice sounded somewhat off.

Upon asking, Lin Meng learned that the old uncle refused to act his age, had thrown out his back in a fight, and was now lying in the hospital.

On the phone, Qin Feng was swearing profusely.

"That little bastard, relying on his family's arrogance, actually dares to bully my people; next time I run into him, I'll definitely beat him up!"

Lin Meng let out a soft sigh, "Uncle, you're not young anymore—take it easy; your old arms and legs can't take injury."

Qin Feng was displeased hearing that.

"You little girl, whose side are you on? How dare you dampen my prestige? Leaving that aside, my martial arts are still not bad; the other side didn't come out well either."

"Then what about your waist..."

Qin Feng was stubborn and immediately said:

"The waist injury is just an accident; don't worry about these details. By the way, if you're free these days, come to the hospital to visit me, and I'll introduce someone to you."

Lin Meng, seeing there was still time, agreed.

She arrived at the hospital empty-handed, and indeed saw Qin Feng looking unhappy.

"You came empty-handed?"

Lin Meng blinked, raised her eyebrows, and replied bluntly: "Don't worry, the day you crash, I definitely won't come empty-handed—I'll even give you a grand send-off!"

These words made Qin Feng bare his teeth and claws, yet also provoked another person in the ward to chuckle.

Only then did Lin Meng turn her gaze to the other person, guessing this must be the person Qin Feng wanted to recommend to her.

"Hello, I'm Cheng Feng, Qin Uncle's martial arts instructor."

Lin Meng was about to greet the other person, but hearing that, she was greatly startled.

This person looks under thirty, yet he's supposedly Uncle's martial arts instructor?
