Rebirth: Living in Wilderness with My Superpower-Chapter 1031: A Newborn Calf is Not Afraid of Tigers
Chapter 1031: Chapter 1031: A Newborn Calf is Not Afraid of Tigers
Shopkeeper Yan’s thoughts raced in a thousand directions.
She herself was involved in intelligence work, and she thought that a small County Magistrate being rendered powerless shouldn’t attract external attention.
In fact, this was indeed the case. The County Magistrate had been under soft incarceration for over half a month, with no one coming to his rescue. Clearly, in these chaotic times, everyone was seeking self-preservation, and no one dared to take risks lightly.
Of course, to avoid complications, she kept this matter a secret. Even her younger brother remained unaware.
Who would have guessed that Li Wenli and Bai Junjun would show up?
How did they hear about the news?
Bai Junjun and Li Wenli were momentarily stunned—they genuinely didn’t know about County Magistrate Fat Ball’s predicament; everything was merely a coincidence.
If Yuwen Luanfei hadn’t encountered misfortune and begged for help, they probably wouldn’t have come to the Eastern Land. It could only be called fate.
"Quickly eat something, rest for the night, and leave tomorrow," Shopkeeper Yan deliberated for a long time and decided it was better not to let them get involved in this matter. As long as there was no evidence, Yuwen Jun would eventually release them, but if they attempted a jailbreak, things would worsen, and they’d truly end up as bandits hunted by everyone.
Old Uncle Qiu and his group had barely managed to live normal lives again—did they really have to start wandering in hardship once more? It was better to endure for a few days, suffer a while, and then come out to live peacefully.
Bai Junjun shook his head, "Staying here isn’t a solution. Plus, we’ve had no news after half a month—
"Sooner or later, whether it’s execution or some other fate, it’ll be decided with just a passing remark."
In the end, this was not a society ruled by law. The common people here had no human rights. If one was lucky, those in power might forget their existence, leaving them to rot in prison; if unlucky, a single command could lead to execution and the end of their life without ceremony.
Entrusting one’s life to others was not Bai Junjun’s style. Besides, what good was there in this so-called Ownerless Land? Rescuing people was a must.
Shopkeeper Yan was at her wit’s end, "You all..."
As far as she knew, Yuwen Luanfei was still wanted across the entire Eastern Land. These two troublemakers took him everywhere, and that was already troublesome enough; now they planned to involve him in a jailbreak.
What, were they unhappy with the crimes already weighing on Yuwen Luanfei’s shoulders? fгeewёbnoѵel_cσm
Bai Junjun calmly patted her shoulder, "Relax. Before we act, we’ll make thorough plans. To avoid dragging you into this, you don’t have to worry about it."
"..." Shopkeeper Yan was speechless. Was this really something she could just ignore?
These people were putting their lives on the line—how could she stand idly by?
"Cousin, please trust us," Yuwen Luanfei said hesitantly.
Having witnessed Bai Junjun and Li Wenli’s capabilities, he honestly felt that a jailbreak was no big deal.
"..." Shopkeeper Yan.
These people were too arrogant. Did they really think the Jin Army were amateurs?
But regardless of her worries, there was nothing she could do. These individuals were set on their path—what could she possibly do?
And so, the four of them, after rushing around for a long time, ate their fill and prepared to sleep for a bit, to recharge before moving forward.
The house where Bai Junjun and Li Wenli stayed had a window that allowed them to see the courtyard they used to live in—the one County Magistrate Fat Ball had once provided them, filled to the brim with people, bustling with activity.
But now, it was eerily quiet and desolate, with the vegetable garden’s weeds growing wild and unruly due to the absence of its occupants.
Bai Junjun shook her head, lamenting the stark changes brought by time and circumstance.
Though it was only a bit past one in the afternoon, the Fox had already taken the initiative to climb into bed to prepare for sleep. Bai Junjun didn’t mind—she’d shared a bed with him before, and they already had experience pretending to be husband and wife during the Biluo incident.
