Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey! Chapter 953 - 242: Bloody Battle at Huangzhou Prefecture, Fi

Upon hearing the voice, the blue stone slab slowly moved away, revealing the tunnel inside. The person who followed looked up at Chen Jie and grinned, saying: "Jiu Si, it really is you!"

Chen Jie looked at him and realized the fellow was actually the grandson of the old Chen family, the granduncle.

Chen Jie looked at him and asked, "Why are you hiding here? Where are the villagers?"

Hearing this, the person replied, "Jiu Si, recently there have been bandits stirring up trouble. Uncle Wu Zhong had us dig a tunnel that connects to Dahei Mountain on the other side. We usually stand guard here, and if enemies co, we all hide in Dahei Mountain, and the enemies won’t be able to find us."

Chen Jie, upon hearing this, said, "Hey, you guys are quite resourceful. What about Uncle Zhong?"

Hearing this, the young man imdiately said, "Jiu Si, co in, I’ll take you to find Uncle Zhong."

Roar~

"Oh my goodness!"

The young man originally intended to invite them to walk through the tunnel, but just then, out of curiosity, the White Tiger peeked into the hole, scaring the young man so much that he fell down.

"Little White."

Chen Jie shouted, and the White Tiger pulled back its head, still curious about whether there were any hairless monkeys living underground.

At this mont, Chen Jie shouted downward, "Hey, you, the little one from the granduncle’s family, co up."

Hearing this, the person imdiately poked his head out and said, "Jiu Si, a tiger, there’s a big tiger."

Chen Jie said, "It’s fine, it won’t bite."

That person, hearing this, tentatively stuck his head out, but his movents were in a fleeing posture, realizing the situation wasn’t great, he turned tail and ran.

This ti, he peeked out again and said, "Oh dear, Jiu Si, you’re really sothing, raising a tiger for fun, it’s terrifying!"

Chen Jie said, "It’s fine, it won’t bite. Could you please find Uncle Zhong for ? I have sothing to discuss with him."

Upon hearing this, the young man replied, "Okay, Jiu Si, I’ll go right away, just wait a mont."

Saying this, the young man dove headfirst into the tunnel and said, "By the way, Jiu Si, my na is Xiao Song, Chen Xiaosong..."

The young man quickly ran into the tunnel to deliver the ssage.

Seeing this, Chen Jie couldn’t help but smile. The granduncle was such a calculating person, yet he had a quite interesting grandson.

Chen Jie thought about it, waiting for a little while. Soon after, Uncle Zhong brought back about ten people, including Uncle Erba, from the village entrance, holding weapons in their hands.

"Jiu Si!"

Wu Zhong exclaid with excitent upon seeing Chen Jie, and Chen Jie said, "Uncle Zhong, I didn’t expect we’d et again in less than a month, hahaha..."

Wu Zhong said, "Yes, and look who’s here, Jiu Si."

Wu Zhong stepped back, and Uncle Erba limped over: "Jiu Si!"

Seeing Uncle Erba, Chen Jie also felt a surge of emotion, going forward to give him a hug, noticing that the old man was in much better shape than before, both stronger and healthier.

It’s been a year since he last saw him, ever since he went to Mianshui County, Chen Jie hadn’t seen Uncle Erba.

Recalling the days when he couldn’t afford to eat, Chen Jie felt a lot of emotion. At that ti, if it wasn’t for Uncle Erba’s family support and help, it would have been much tougher for him.

While speaking of this, Chen Jie also noticed Chen Sanliu among the people following Wu Zhong.

At this mont, Chen Sanliu hid among the crowd, not daring to face Chen Jie. He had done many wrong things back then and had made things difficult for Chen Jie. Now that Chen Jie had beco successful, would he not take revenge?

In fact, if it were the old Chen Jie, he probably would have targeted Chen Sanliu. However, Chen Jie’s status is different now, his position is different, naturally, so are his attitude and magnanimity.

Thus, he didn’t make things difficult for Chen Sanliu.

Instead, he smiled and said, "Uncle Sanliu, you seem to have lost quite a bit of weight recently, haven’t you?"

Chen Sanliu blushed and said, "Haha... Just a bunch of lousy bones, good days don’t add flesh..."

His attitude was quite humble. Chen Jie said, "Make sure to get enough rest, things will get better in the future."

As they were speaking, White Tiger, who was lying in the house, suddenly ca out to make its presence felt.

The group of hairless monkeys outside conversing piqued its curiosity. When it poked its head out, Chen Sanliu imdiately saw it.

"Ah, tiger, tiger..."

Frightened, he let out a cry and was about to run away. The others were also startled, all nervously eyeing the White Tiger.

At this ti, Chen Jie said, "Everyone, don’t be afraid, this is my pet, it doesn’t bite. Sit!"

Chen Jie shouted to the White Tiger, and upon hearing this, it imdiately sat down. However, its imposing presence still deterred the villagers from getting close, even Wu Zhong felt a bit fearful.

Feeling impressed, Wu Zhong thought, Jiu Si is indeed impressive. It’s only been a short ti, and he’s already raising tigers, truly remarkable.

With such thoughts in mind, Chen Jie saw that everyone was very afraid of Little White, so he patted it and told it to go play elsewhere.

Little White was very astute, knowing these hairless monkeys were quite timid, so it left.

Watching the big tiger leave, Uncle Erba patted his chest and said, "Oh my, it scared to death, just now my heart was pounding."

Chen Jie laughed and said, "Uncle Erba, don’t worry, this tiger is very intelligent, it’s fine."

Hearing this, Uncle Erba replied, "Still quite terrifying."

Chen Jie laughed without responding, then turned to Wu Zhong and asked, "Uncle Zhong, why have the villagers taken refuge in the mountain?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Zhong replied, "Sigh, it’s all because of those rebels causing trouble. Our lives were going well, then these guys pretended to be governnt officials to collect taxes, and they ca on strong. I went into the town to seek help from the Fishing Guild and found that Zhou Chu was also overwheld, and we couldn’t defeat them alone."

"So I ca back and rallied the nearby villages and towns, getting everyone to flee to the mountain, so those fake governnt soldiers couldn’t find us."

Upon hearing Wu Zhong’s words, Chen Jie also chuckled.
