Kapitel 72: Brigand Stronghold

A plan started to form within Zhao Fu’s mind, but he didn’t immediately agree to help Xiao Jian and the others to take revenge. Instead, he asked, “Was it just you guys who were able to escape?”

“No sir, there were 30 more of us who were able to escape,” Xiao Jian respectfully replied. When Zhao Fu didn’t immediately agree, Xiao Jian’s heart sank.

“How many men are there?” Zhao Fu asked.

“There are another 21 men,” Xiao Jian quickly replied.

Zhao Fu thought for a while before saying, “I can help you take revenge, but it will depend on you. Bring the rest of the men to me!”

Xiao Jian was delighted and knelt on the ground to kowtow again. He then ran off and brought back 21 men who were quite skinny and had sallow skin. It seemed that they had gone through some rough times after their village had been destroyed.
