Chapter 1679: Full-level Boss Dressed As a Peasant Girl
Chapter 1679: Finding Meng Xiaoshu
Deciding not to wait any longer, Xia Yi immediately shifted her gaze away and ran towards the address Qiao Rou had given her.
Qiao Rou had mentioned that the person Jiang Kuanyu brought back a couple of days ago was being held in the leftmost warehouse.
She didn't understand why they would keep a person in a warehouse, but as long as he was there, it would do.
Xia Yi's steps were swift, and in no time, she arrived outside the warehouse. There was a guard at the entrance. When he saw her running over, he quickly drew the knife at his waist and pointed it at her. "Who are you?"
Xia Yi looked genuinely terrified, and her tears fell as she spoke. "It's so scary, big brother, it's so scary."
The guard frowned. "What's going on?"
"Over there, the fierce beasts are out, I don't know what's happening. Those beasts are attacking people and coming this way. Help me, big brother, please save me."
Saying this, Xia Yi ran to the side. The guard furrowed his brows. He had indeed heard screams in the distance. Now, hearing that it was beasts running amok, he couldn't help but move forward.
As he walked away, his back was turned to Xia Yi. Seizing the opportunity, she rushed forward and suddenly collided with him. She used her strength to push him towards the wall.
"Ugh..." The guard cried out in pain. Before he could react, he heard a series of fearful screams from Xia Yi. "They're coming! A wolf is coming from over there, help!"
The guard had just turned his head to look when he felt hands on his head. With a twist, he was dead on the spot.
Seeing this, Xia Yi let out a breath and stood up.
Fortunately, this area was relatively quiet; there were no beasts around, and no one was coming.
She found a key on the guard and quickly unlocked the door. After dragging the guard inside and locking the door behind her, she turned around and saw Uncle Meng tied to a pillar, covered in blood and barely conscious.
Xia Yi's expression tightened. She approached him and checked his pulse. Thankfully, his heartbeat was still there, and he was alive.
She sighed in relief, quickly untying him and laying him on the ground. Then, she pinched the acupoint on his face to wake him up.
"Uncle Meng?"
Meng Xiaoshu opened his swollen eyes. His eyelashes were matted with blood, which Xia Yi wiped away. Speaking softly, she said, "Uncle Meng, are you okay? Can you leave with me?"
Meng Xiaoshu felt as if there was a blurry figure swaying before his eyes, and the voice sounded both distant and close.
What made it seem unreal was that the person calling him seemed to be a girl?
He opened his mouth, his throat hurting intensely, and his voice came out hoarse, "You, you are..."
"I'm here on behalf of Young Master Meng Yunzheng. I'll take you out now. In a moment, you just need to exert a bit of strength. I'll support you while we leave to avoid raising suspicion."
Xia Yi was strong enough to carry Meng Xiaoshu, but she was playing a role of a helpless girl in the black market. If she were to carry a grown man effortlessly, it would certainly attract attention.
So, she woke up Meng Xiaoshu and made sure his feet touched the ground, carrying most of his weight herself.
Meng Xiaoshu's reaction was somewhat delayed. It took him a while to realize what Xia Yi had said.
He was stunned for a moment, disbelievingly asking, "Yunzheng? Is it... Yunzheng... who sent you?"
"Not only him, both him and Lu Xiangjun are outside. We just didn't know where you were held, so we had to split up. Let's get you out of here."
Xia Yi turned around and flipped the guard she had brought in earlier. She stripped him of his clothes.
