The next day, it was already dawn. The prisoners in the neighboring room had already started to eat breakfast. Although it was just some porridge and stale steamed buns, it was still better than nothing.

He had not eaten a single grain since last night, and his stomach was already empty. Now that Du Jiangsheng asked, he felt an unbearable thirst. He couldn't help but look over and see the jailer carrying a basket by his side, as if he didn't notice him at all!

"Big brother, why is there no food for us?" Meng Chun Lou asked with a dry throat.

The jailer ignored Meng Quan and shouted, "Delicious! Remember this taste! "If you go out in the future, do your best!"

"Brother!" And us! " Meng Chun Lou raised her voice.

"What's your name? You came only last night, in the middle of the night, and the cook didn't know it, so he didn't cook for you! Just you wait! "If you're lucky, so be it. But if you're unlucky, just wait until tomorrow!" The guard replied in an irritated tone.

"Big brother, I don't need to eat, but children can't get hungry. Can I trouble you to find someone to stammer on? Don't starve him to death, I'm begging you!" Meng Chunlou said in an almost pitiful manner.

"Damn it, do you think there's anything I can't do? Where can I find you food? "You have a lot to do!" The guard said in anger.

"Brother Pi, please, just do it!" Meng Chun Lou pleaded with a bitter face.

When Du Jiangsheng heard this, he could not help but frown and said to Meng Chun Lou, "Uncle, don't ask for his help! I can take it! "

Meng Chunlou looked at Du Jiangsheng and touched his forehead. He felt sour in his heart and said with a sigh, "Uncle is useless …"

Right at this moment, Chen Lu slowly walked in carrying a sandalwood box. Seeing the butler arrive, the jailer immediately greeted him with a smile. However, he ignored him and walked to Meng Chun Lou's cell. "Great Hero Meng, I'm here to deliver your food!"

The moment he heard there was food, Du Jiangsheng's eyes lit up. He stuck out his nose and sniffed, feeling the fragrance of meat. He could not help but shout, "There's roasted chicken!"

"Right, right!" There's roasted chicken! " Chen Lu pointed at the door with a smile. "Open it!"

When he said that, the guard behind him rushed forward frantically and used his key to open the cell's door. Only then did Chen Lu walk in with his suitcase. He first rubbed his nose and sneezed, then scolded, "What kind of crappy place is this? The stench was terrible! "Is this the kind of cell that we should arrange for Hero Meng?"

The servant was shocked by his actions, he did not know how to reply, but he heard him reprimand him, "Step down! "Such a snobbish thing!"

The messenger was stumped for nothing. He lowered his head and left the cell, cursing at Chen Lu in his heart.

Chen Lu smiled and crouched down to take out all the food in the box. It was a roasted chicken, an elbow, a plate of vegetables, a plate of dog meat, and a pot of good wine.

Chen Lu chuckled happily as he placed two pairs of chopsticks on the dish. Only then did he say, "You two, if you don't mind being shabby, then just use some of it!"

"Butler Chen, could this be our Head Cutting Rice?" Meng Chun Lou asked.

"You must be joking, Noble Meng! I'm just joking with you!" Chen Lu squinted at Meng Chunlou, "Who asked hero Meng to give me a few immortal pills?"

Meng Chunlou smiled bitterly and said, "Does Housekeeper Chen really believe that the so-called immortal pills exist in this world?"

"Others may not have it, but you, hero Meng, are hard to say!" Chen Lu smiled indifferently, "If there wasn't any immortal pills, why did you take my 10 taels of silver?"

Meng Chunlou didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Just as he was about to explain, he heard Du Jiangsheng say, "I'm afraid that Butler Chen wants an elixir with more than one function, right? Maybe there's some deeper meaning behind it, or maybe there's something else? "

Chen Lu rolled his eyes and immediately said with a smile, "Look, all the kids understand!"

"It seems like Steward Chen isn't here to just send us food and medicine. If you have something to say, just say it!" Meng Chun Lou laughed.

"Great!" I just like to be straightforward and not waste my breath! " Chen Lu smiled and tried asking, "Since the two of you have condescended here, are you willing to accept it?"

"Destroying a prison is the work of a boor, how can a wise man like Hero Meng do such a thing?" "However …" Chen Lu smiled without a word, a profound look in his eyes.

"Steward Chen, if you have something to say, just say it all!" Meng Chunlou reminded.

"I'm thinking that if the two of you were to be brought to trial in the hall, you will be punished for your crimes. When the time comes, I will be proud, and I will clench my fists. Wouldn't that be deplorable?" Chen Lu feigned a regretful expression.

"Then what is your opinion on this matter, Steward Chen?" Meng Chun Lou asked.

"If hero Meng is still the hot-blooded hero of the past, then I, Chen Lu, would rather take responsibility and let you out, let you kill Li Zhi and those villains for revenge, and at least leave no regrets on the Road to River Styx. Do you think hero Meng is the same Meng Chun?" Chen Lu asked with a serious expression.

Meng Chun Lou stared intently at Chen Lu's face, and didn't say a word for a long time. At this time, he heard Du Jiangsheng laugh and say, "Hahaha! "What a good method to kill with a borrowed knife. It was all thanks to Housekeeper Chen!"

Hearing this, Chen Lu was shocked, then he squinted his eyes and laughed: "Child, what nonsense are you spouting? What do you mean by borrowing a knife to kill people? "

"You used my uncle's hand to get rid of Li Zhi's group. Isn't that the same as using a knife to kill someone?" Du Jiangsheng asked with a smile.

"Humph!" He had to have a motive to kill someone! I don't have any grudges with Li Zhi's group in the past few days, so why would I want to kill them? " Chen Lu asked.

"Although you have no enmity with them, where is the Prefect?" Du Jiangsheng asked with a smile.

"Child, what nonsense are you spouting? Master Chen has nothing to do with this. Chen Lu raged.

Du Jiangsheng raised his neck and laughed loudly. He said, "With your little trick, you can't even fool a child like me. Do you still want to deceive my uncle?"

"Bastard!" Chen Lu suddenly stood up, "You really think too highly of yourself! "Looks like I shouldn't have come here!"

"Butler Chen, you're already getting angry from embarrassment after I told you about the main matter?" Du Jiangsheng asked with a smile.

"Kid, you talk too much! Our master has something to say, so when will it be your turn to interrupt? " Chen Lu raged.

Meng Chun Lou gave a faint smile and said, "Housekeeper Chen, don't be angry. Let me ask you, do we have any chance of survival after getting rid of Li Zhi?"

Chen Lu straightened his hat and laughed. "Even if you don't kill anyone, you will still die without a doubt. Killing someone is just a burden for Dora. You won't be able to escape death in the end!"

"In that case, why should we kill for you?" Meng Chun Lou asked.

"Wrong!" You guys are not here to kill for me, nor for Sir Chen, you are here to kill for yourselves! " Chen Lu smiled mysteriously, "Li Zhi's group caused you guys to fail. Don't you want to take revenge for yourselves?"

Meng Chun Lou was silent for a moment, then laughed: "Butler Chen, since there is no possibility of us living, I don't think there is a need for me to kill anyone! "Please go back!"

"Meng Chunlou, you better know how to appreciate favors!" Chen Lu said coldly.

"I'm sorry, Housekeeper Chen. I won't do this!" Meng Chun Lou said with a resolute expression.

"Humph!" "He doesn't know how to appreciate favors!" Chen Lu bent down to put the dishes back into the box, "Since you have other thoughts, I don't have to be respectful to you two here. I think it's better to give these dishes to someone else!"

He hurriedly closed the lid on the box, got up and left the cell. Just as he was about to tell the jailer to find the misfortune of Meng and Du, he heard Du Jiangsheng loudly shout, "Steward Chen, we promise you!"

Chen Lu turned his head in surprise, only to see Du Jiangsheng holding onto the door with both of his hands, his face full of expectation. He then turned back into the cell and laughed, "You've thought it through so quickly? If you knew this would happen, why would you have done it in the first place? "

Du Jiangsheng forced a smile and said, "Although I have to die if I promise you, I can live for a few more days. If I don't, I'll starve to death right away, and that won't feel good!"

"Hahaha!" That's the truth! " Chen Lu smiled at Meng Chunlou. "Hero Meng, do you also mean that?"

"How could I not understand something that even children understand? However, you must agree to a condition of mine! " Meng Chun said.

"Hero Meng, please speak!" Chen Lu laughed.

"Although I promised you that I would get rid of Li Zhi and the others, you can't rush me. After all, that Li Zhiwu is very powerful. Moreover, he has the Ru Yi Hall backing him. I must hit him!" Meng Chun said.

Chen Lu pondered for a moment, then said with a smile: "Alright! I can promise you that, but you have to give me some time. You can't just let me wait indefinitely, right? "

"Three days! Three days is the limit!" Meng Chun said.

"Alright, it's a deal!" Chen Lu smiled as he bent down and opened the lunchbox. He placed the dishes out once again and said, "You two, please go ahead!"

"Could there be some sort of powder in here?" Meng Chun Lou asked with a smile.

"Noble Meng, don't worry. I, Chen Lu, am not some sinister villain!" Chen Lu laughed.

Meng Chun Lou didn't suspect anything as he heard this. He was indeed hungry, and even if there was poison in it, he could only eat it with his eyes closed. After all, the feeling of hunger wasn't pleasant!

Meng and Du opened their stomachs wide and ate to their heart's content. They ate until there was nothing left of them. Meng Quan drank the last drop of wine from the pot before patting his belly and laughing, "Awesome!"

"The two of you can leave now! Three days later, we will still meet here. At that time, I will prepare more dishes and wine for you two! " Chen Lu laughed.

"Steward Chen, are you not afraid that we will never return after we leave?" Meng Chun Lou tried asking.

"If hero Meng is also someone who goes back on his words, then who in this martial world can be trusted?" Chen Lu replied calmly without raising his eyes.

"Good!" If you believe me, I will definitely agree to it! " As Meng Chunlou spoke, he cupped his fists towards Chen Lu and led Du Jiang out of the cell.

The guard seemed to have received orders and had already prepared his keys for them. At this moment, he took the initiative to help them go to Chains and passed the Soul Shocking Sword and two sets of clothes to Meng Chun Lou before letting them go.

Meng and Du had changed into new clothes and left Yangzhou's prison. They were in a very good mood, but not long after they left, Du Jiangsheng appeared to be worried. He couldn't help but ask Meng Chunlou, "Uncle, do you really plan on helping him kill someone?"

"If we don't do this, we'll just be harming them with our blades!" Meng Chun Lou helplessly sighed.

"But in the end, it still helped Prefect Chen a lot!" Du Jiangsheng's face was filled with dissatisfaction.

"Why do you think Prefect Chen borrowed my power to kill Li Zhi and the others? Aren't they from the same boat? " Meng Chun Lou asked with a puzzled expression.

"I think that Prefect Chen just doesn't want the people of the Ru Tang Hall to cover the sky in Yangzhou. In addition, he has lost his precious pearl and hairpin, so he has to think of a way to recover the loss!" Du Jiangsheng said.

"Are you saying that after getting rid of Li Zhi and the others, Zhao Daxing's family property will fall into the hands of Prefect Chen?" Meng Chun Lou asked.

"Is there even a need to ask?" Du Jiangsheng sneered.

"But who stole the pearl and the hairpin? In the secret room of the Chen Prefect, who was the one who saved us? " Meng Chun Lou couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"It can't be Li Zhi!" Du Jiangsheng said with a face full of certainty.

"Who cares! When the truth is revealed, there will always be an outcome! " Meng Chun said.

At this time, a burst of laughter came from afar. Meng Chunlou looked over and saw that the place was packed with people who were densely packed together looking at something. Out of curiosity, he walked over, and Du Jiangsheng followed him.

Pushing through the crowd, Meng Chun Lou finally saw the truth. There was a woman sitting on the ground!

At this moment, her long hair was covering her face and her body was trembling uncontrollably, clearly having suffered a great humiliation. Beside the woman stood another woman, who was holding onto a kitchen knife, coldly staring at the person on the ground and scolding, "You slut, aren't you the best at seducing men? Why is he not saying anything now? you can't use your ability? "

The women on the ground held their heads tightly, wanting to cut off the ridiculing laughter, but the woman with the kitchen knife rushed in front of her, tore off her hands, and cursed: "You slut, listen to the laughter of others, maybe some of these people tried to seduce you, do you not even dare to listen to their laughter?"

"Spare me!" I don't want to do it anymore. What else do you want? " The woman on the ground had a mournful look on her face. Her voice quivered with difficulty!

"What a joke!" You were still selling yesterday, but today you have completely changed your mind. Do you really think you can turn back that easily? Let me tell you, even if you don't do it, you will never escape the stigma of being inferior! You slut, why don't you go die? " The woman with the knife became more and more excited. She waved the kitchen knife in her hand with all her might. It looked like she could lose control at any moment!

"I had nothing to do with your man's death. He was the one who couldn't take it. I didn't expect him to be so impulsive!" The woman on the ground explained with tears streaming down her face.

"You still dare to say? You killed him, why don't you admit it? "You bitch, I'll chop you to death!" As the woman spoke, she seemed to have lost her mind. She waved the kitchen knife in her hand and chopped at the woman's head. Everyone cried out in fright. The timid ones had even covered their eyes with their hands!

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Screams rang out, and everyone's heart trembled as they imagined this appalling scene. Those innocent children were scared to the point of crying as well, and the scene immediately turned chaotic!
