Chapter 1712: His Name is Qin Kun

The armory?

Upon hearing these words, Shu Yu was shocked.

Meng Yunzheng showed a rare expression of excitement, nodding. "Yes, the armory. It's filled with brand-new weapons, almost filling up an entire room. Although Changjin Prefecture isn't the main battlefield, it can be considered their headquarters."

And the Black Market was the perfect place to store weapons in the headquarters.

While the room wasn't overflowing with weapons, it was sufficient for the entire Changjin Prefecture.

Shu Yu was eager. "Let's go, show me..."

She stopped midway, looking at Meng Pei. If she left and the bandit also left, there would only be him and the still unconscious Meng Xiaoshu in the room.

But Meng Pei waved his hand. "It's fine, you go. We've captured most of the people outside, and even if one or two escape, I can handle it with my skills. Besides, you brought me plenty of foods. Even if ten more people come, I won't be afraid."

Shu Yu chuckled at his words. Meng Yunzheng said, "I've brought two men to guard the door, so don't worry."

With that assurance, Shu Yu felt relieved. Following Meng Yunzheng, she left the room, and the bandit hurriedly followed.

Outside, Shu Yu indeed saw two familiar figures guarding the entrance. Oh, right, they were the ones who were guarding the entrance to the Beast Encampment earlier, holding long spears.

Seeing Shu Yu, the two men smiled awkwardly and then shifted their gaze away, standing quietly as guards.

After walking a good distance outside with Meng Yunzheng, he explained the situation of these two men.

"They've killed all the beasts in the Beast Encampment. Actually, that's a good thing. After those beasts have tasted human flesh, their interest in other kinds of meat diminishes. It was only a matter of time before they had to be dealt with. Otherwise, we would have been in danger."

Shu Yu nodded. She had already guessed as much back then, and now that it was confirmed, she didn't react much.

On the other hand, the bandit who followed them was in shock. All of the beasts, they... they were all dead? If Second Master Fu finds out, he'll definitely be furious.

Fortunately, he surrendered early. Fortunately, indeed.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the medical room where all the people from the Black Market who had been captured and found were gathered. Uncle Yang was overseeing them.

When the bandit entered, he began to identify the people one by one. Of course, he couldn't possibly know everyone, but if he didn't recognize some of them, then that meant some were still in hiding, right?

Meng Yunzheng gestured at him. "Take a good look."

The bandit nodded immediately. Those who were tied up inside the room frowned slightly at his reaction.

The next moment, a person who recognized him suddenly got agitated and accused, "Qin Kun, so it's you. You betrayed us! You brought them here, didn't you? I'll kill you!"

The bandit, Qin Kun, subconsciously took a step back when he was berated like that.

But in the next instant, as if he realized something, he stood up straighter, puffing out his chest and boldly retorted, "Just shut up! What do you mean by betrayal? I... I wasn't even on your side to begin with."

With that, he looked at Meng Yunzheng, Shu Yu, and Yang Lao Ye, as if explaining to them, "I, uh, I didn't come to the Black Market voluntarily. I was deceived into coming here. A fellow villager told me to come and make money, and I'm just too naive. I was lured into a trap for the sake of my 80-year-old mother and my three-year-old child. That's how I ended up like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth."
