Chapter 170: The Art of Finishing Meng Liang (VII)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Jiang Pengji was well-versed in the art of concealment––especially now that she was dressed in black and had her face covered.

However, she was not there to save anyone, which was why she chose to scale a wall over into the gambling den’s yard.

Ziying Hua: “The host’s handsome landing and wall scaling is awesome! I’m giving a like! It’s like watching one of those wuxia films.”

Shitang Dafan Ayi: “I’m looking forward to the host being able to use qinggong. Though it’s still cool, I think if she stick out both her arms, and do qinggong, then I think she could fly...”

Ayan: “@Shitang Dafan Ayi That’s not a person you’re describing, right? That’s a bird, right?”

Laosiji Lianmeng: “It feels like I’m the only one that can see the host’s true motive.”

What motive?

That was before Jiang Pengji scaled the wall. She did something on purpose and made it look like it was nothing. She could have entered without anyone noticing, but she still made sure to look around in a suspicious manner and even made to step out into the light for a short while in order to be noticed.

Meng Hun’s men had been guarding the gambling den’s entrance and exit for awhile. They were on their guard and definitely saw Jiang Pengji.

“Sh*t! Someone suspicious just went in!”

When Meng Hun realized it, a few of his men turned solemn. “That’s someone from the Liu family, or was it Meng Liang’s retainer?”

“The Liu’s are a prestigious family in Hejian County. If they wanted to save someone, they would not be doing it so sneakily. All they needed was an excuse and they could enter. To do all this, it must be Meng Liang’s retainer,” Meng Hun said.

“Sir, should we still enter?” one of his men asked.

They had already sent someone in to check out the guards in the gambling den. The person they sent in would give them the signal when the opportunity to grab Meng Liang arose. Now that the shadow had entered the gambling den, however, would their scout and the shadow fight when they saw each other?

Meng Hun hated Meng Liang to the core, and he would not let one of his men die for his cause.

When he thought of that, Meng Hun’s expression turned solemn and he waved his hand. “Let’s go!”

Meng Hun’s stature was tall and large. He stretched an arm and easily grabbed the top of the wall, vaulting himself over. He took two running steps, took a few steps up the wall, then got his hand on the other side of the wall and flipped himself over.

The other men did similar moves and quickly vaulted over. They were silent as they did that.

Jiang Pengji hid herself in the shadows and watched them all enter the yard. Her lips curled up in a smile.

Show time!

Ziying Hua: “#Starry eyed. Newbie here. Who’s that tall leader?”

Shitang Dafan Ayi: “Even though I’m an old-timer here, I have no idea who that is, either.”

Laosiji Lianmeng: “I tidied up this channel’s stream information, people, situations encountered, and have made a rough connection between characters. Based on the recent development, that person should be that unlucky officer.”

Ayan: “Officer? The one that Meng Liang cuckold?”

Laosiji Lianmeng: “Based on my analysis, it should be this person, but the host didn’t stream yesterday, so she may have met new people. If so, this guy might be someone else.”

Meng Hun and his men quickly noticed something was wrong. The place was too quiet. Meng Hun was on his guard and he had a bad feeling.

Did Meng Liang finally gain some brain cells and lure them there?

Just when Meng Hun was preparing himself for the worst case scenario, two mounds of something caught his attention. The two mounds laid in the dark where they could be easily overlooked.

“Still alive, but the back of his neck suffered a heavy hit. He won’t be awake for awhile.”

The scout received a signal from Meng Hun and went forward to investigate. He discovered that the two mounds were two guards from the gambling den. The back of their necks were bruised and it was obvious that someone had hit them pretty hard. Any harder and they would have died!

“Let’s go!” Meng Hun called.

Where the guards were supposed to be was empty. Where had they gone to?

Meng Hun and his men quickly discovered the rest of the unconscious guards. Their hearts turned cold at the sight. It seemed that they had met someone good.

“All the bruises are the same and the speed seems fast. It looks like it was done by the same person. All these ruffians don’t seem like they managed to react before they fainted,” one of his men said. “To think that such a talent is working for the Meng’s...”

If it were the Mengs from the past, it would not have been surprising that they had someone that talented working for them. But the Meng’s now? None of them were worthy.

They had allowed Meng Liang to do as he pleased and he had caused the deaths of the officer’s wife and daughter!

To have a son like Meng Liang, Meng Zhan was no better!

As his father, he allowed Meng Liang to commit such crimes. He did not bother to teach his son a lesson, or even try to hide the deaths. If Meng Liang did not reveal it by accident, the officer would probably be still in the dark about his family’s deaths.

“Stop.” Meng Hun was not stupidly loyal, but he disliked belittling his old employers.

A wall away, Jiang Pengji sat on the roof and listened to their conversation. Her eyes were filled with mirth.

Below her, a guard guarding Meng Liang had been yawning away.

One of the guards patted the yawning guard’s shoulder and mumbled, “Watch over for me. I’ll go take a nap.”

“Go ahead. No one comes to such a place anyway. If the boss or someone comes by, I’ll wake you.”

The gambling den had some “prestige” around it. Ruffians would not dare to stir up any trouble and the hired guards were mostly there to guard. They would sometimes be sent out to collect debts, but their job scope was pretty slack. Other than their boss coming to check on them, they could slack off when they were guarding things.

After the two had stopped talking, they saw a black shadow flit past them.

One of the guards rubbed his arms and his voice trembled when he asked, “Did––did you see something?”

“You, you saw too...? A shadow?” The other’s teeth chattered.

When they realized they both saw the same thing, they suddenly felt like their legs had turned to jelly.
