Chapter 2020

Chen Sheng thought they had encountered assassins and suddenly drew his blade.

Steward Liu looked from afar and saw that the guards arriving were all extremely extraordinary. Then, connecting this to Gao Changwen's words, his complexion turned as pale as paper in a "whoosh," and cold sweat instantly soaked his back!

It's over, he had committed a heaven-sized disaster!

This little fatty... was he really Gao Yang's brother?!

"Wind is tight! Pull out!!"

Steward Liu was terrified out of his wits, hurriedly let out a low growl, and fled toward the other side of the barren hill without looking back, disappearing in an instant.

Chen Sheng led his men to the scene, only to see a mess.

He was also stunned.

But the situation was unclear, and Chen Sheng feared it might be a "luring the tiger away from the mountain" tactic, so he dared not pursue too far and stopped in place.

Very quickly.

Gao Yang also arrived with a large group of guards.

When looking at the scene before him, Gao Yang was also stunned.

"Changwen, what is the situation here?"

If he had known earlier that Gao Changwen taking a wild dump could lead to such a situation, he would rather have let Gao Changwen do it in his pants.

Chu Qingluan and Shangguan Wan'er glanced at Gao Changwen's hands and retreated several steps in disgust, covering their delicate noses.

Gao Changwen looked unlucky, his face bruised and swollen as he said, "Brother, don't mention it, it's too damn unlucky. Taking a wild dump, and I actually got hit in the ass by a thrown rock, and then inexplicably got beaten up."

"A rock?"

"What rock?"

Gao Yang asked, frowning.

Upon hearing this, Gao Changwen immediately pointed viciously to the side, "It's all this bastard's fault. If this bastard hadn't been stealing some plague stones and been caught red-handed, how could I have been beaten up?"

In an instant.

Li Laoshi was dumbfounded.

Although he was named Li Laoshi (Honest Li), he was not stupid. Years of experience allowed him to read the situation. Seeing these guards, the luxurious clothing, and the fairy-like Shangguan Wan'er and Chu Qingluan, combined with Gao Changwen's words, he instantly understood who this extraordinary, sharp-eyed young man before him was!

He hurriedly knelt and bowed, "This small one, Li Laoshi, pays respects to the Living Yama Lord. Please, my lord, spare my life!"

"This small one didn't know that stealing a plague stone would cause so much trouble. Otherwise, even if I had nine lives, I wouldn't have dared to steal it!"

"My lord, show mercy! This small one has an eighty-year-old mother paralyzed in bed, a three-year-old child waiting to be fed, and a wife who is weak and sickly. My whole family relies on this small one's strength to survive! Please, my lord, spare this lowly life; this small one will never dare again!"

Li Laoshi truly cried.

He felt his life was too bitter and he was too unlucky!

It had turned cold too early this year, and the prices of firewood and charcoal had been skyrocketing these past two days, making them completely unaffordable. So he had come to steal some plague stones for emergencies, never expecting to cause such a huge disaster.

Gao Yang heard the words "plague stone" again and said with great interest, "Are there any more of these plague stones?"
