41: It was the monkeys' revenge.
Wang County.
Wang Dazhuang woke up.
"Son, you're awake." After waking up these past few days, Wang Dazhuang only felt unbearable pain down there.
"Mom, tell me the truth, am I crippled?"
Wang Dazhuang looked darkly at his mother as he spoke.
"What nonsense are you talking about? The doctor said you'll recover after resting for a few more days."
Wang Dazhuang lifted his leg, but the pain was intense there too.
"What happened to my leg?"
Wang Dazhuang asked, his tone full of anger.
"The doctor said your leg is fractured; you need to stay here for at least two or three months before it heals."
Wang Dazhuang's mother also didn't understand why her son was being retaliated against by The Monkeys. Could it be that her son and his friends really committed too many sins?
No, her son was so good; it definitely wasn't his fault.
"Mom, where is Xiao Niannian? Tell Second Uncle to send people to capture her. I want her to kneel at my feet..."
Hearing this, Wang Dazhuang's mother tried to persuade him.
"Dazhuang, your Second Uncle said he is about to be transferred to the Province Headquarters and wants you to keep a low profile for now. The Xiao Niannian you mentioned and her Grandma Xiao went to the Military Unit in Yangcheng. Right now, your Second Uncle has no way to capture them. Once they return, Mom will immediately speak to your Second Uncle..."
Hearing that Xiao Niannian and Grandma Xiao were at the Military Unit in Yangcheng, Wang Dazhuang's expression darkened further.
"Oh right, Dazhuang, didn't you go to the Xiao Family that day? Xiao the Second's house is also like ours..."
Wang Dazhuang's mother started talking about the affairs at Xiao Dong's house.
"What? You're saying Xiao the Second's house was also robbed?"
Wang Dazhuang was extremely shocked.
"Did monkeys also go and attack them?"
What exactly is going on?
"After this incident, Xiao the Second's family didn't dare stay home. I heard they went to the Yangcheng Military Unit to find Xiao Yueyue's Fiancé. That Fiancé is a Military Officer..."
Actually, after this happened, let alone Xiao the Second's family being afraid, she was extremely terrified herself. Such an incident was too astonishing. These past few days, she only dared to return to her Hometown once.
Everyone in Wang Family Village had something to say.
"They actually ran off to Yangcheng too?"
"Dad, is this matter related to the Xiao Family?"
Accountant Wang shook his head as he listened to his son.
"When you were discovered that day, the Xiao Family was also in the same situation as you, except they weren't injured as severely as you were..."
"Why exactly did The Monkeys do this?" Wang Dazhuang's mother was so angry her teeth were itching, wishing she could kill all those monkeys. "When they went into the Back Mountain, didn't they catch any monkeys?"
So many days had passed, yet not a single monkey had been caught. Was her son's injury just going to be forgotten?
"Your Second Uncle and I guess that maybe someone knows how to train monkeys, or maybe someone put things monkeys like inside the house..."
Accountant Wang looked at his wife and son and continued speaking.
"That's why these monkeys came back."
"Yes, Dad, maybe someone knows how to train monkeys and used them to retaliate against me. You must tell Second Uncle to find the Culprit, recover the stolen goods, and I'll make sure that mastermind gets shot..."
Just as Wang Dazhuang was speaking loudly, a knock sounded at the door.
Opening the door, they saw comrades from the Public Security Bureau.
"Comrade Wang, we have found a lead." Comrade Liu, who was leading the group, spoke.
"A friend of comrade Xiao Wang told us that they had followed comrade Xiao Wang into the Back Mountain of Wang Family Village, where they caught a small monkey, killed it, and ate it..."
What?
Accountant Wang and his Wife immediately looked at Wang Dazhuang upon hearing this.
"Dazhuang, did you really do that?"
Although Accountant Wang didn't think this was a big deal, he wondered if The Monkeys were retaliating against his son because of it.
"Therefore, we suspect that Wang Dazhuang and his group might be victims of The Monkeys' revenge..."
"We did catch a small monkey that time, but no other monkeys saw us..."
Wang Dazhuang's arrogance diminished slightly, but he still suspected someone was targeting him.
The comrades from the Public Security Bureau looked at him with some disdain. Who would have thought that Wang Dazhuang not only harmed people but also killed little monkeys and ate Monkey Brains? Now, many Citizens were cheering, saying Wang Dazhuang got his just deserts.
"What about Xiao Dong and them? They didn't kill monkeys like we did." Wang Dazhuang immediately found an excuse for himself.
"We are still investigating this matter."
After the comrades from the Public Security Bureau left, Wang Dazhuang looked at his father and said.
"Dad, I don't think The Monkeys are taking revenge on me. Someone definitely wants to harm me and make our family unable to produce heirs..."
"You focus on recovering. Dad will have someone look into this thoroughly."
In the Dining Hall.
Logistics Section Chief Hong smiled when he saw Lu Jing approaching with a large bag of items.
"Xiao Lu, what are you carrying?"
Lu Jing had brought things before, like Cured Meat sent by Xiao Lu's family, which Lu Jing used to supplement the meals for the Battalion.
"It's Wild Rabbit and Wild Chicken. The comrades in the Production Brigade have worked hard recently, so this is to supplement their meals."
Their Production Brigade is a Special Forces Brigade, currently numbering one thousand people. Their Production Brigade's dining hall is also different from other Regiments.
"Wild Rabbit and Wild Chicken, let me see."
Section Chief Hong chuckled as he opened the bag. Seeing over a dozen Wild Chickens and Wild Rabbits inside, he couldn't help but praise him.
"Xiao Lu, you are too amazing."
"I didn't catch them."
Section Chief Hong had thought that Lu Jing had taken people to the Back Mountain and caught so many Wild Chickens and Wild Rabbits. After all, within the entire Division Headquarters, Lu Jing's Production Brigade had the strongest Combat Power and the most skills.
Who caught these? Could it be the Citizens from the surrounding villages?
There are several villages around here. The villagers from these villages also go to the Back Mountain, but the part they go to is the forest area not designated as a Restricted Zone by the Military Unit.
After Lu Jing exchanged a few words with Section Chief Hong, he took the bag and went to the front.
"Captain Lu, you're too kind."
"We're in for a treat today."
"This is great."
"Thank you, Captain Lu."
Many people saw these items and knew they were in for a treat.
"The few of you, when you butcher the rabbits, peel off the skins and Cure them well. I have a use for them."
Hearing Captain Lu call their names, these few immediately responded.
"Yes, sir."
"Captain Lu, are there more Wild Rabbits and Wild Chickens in the Back Mountain? Why don't you take us to the Back Mountain for training?"
Someone suggested.
"It seems like you haven't had enough training if you're still thinking about playing in the Back Mountain."
Hearing Lu Jing's words, the person who spoke immediately stood up straight.
"Captain Lu, I was wrong."
Lu Jing said nothing more and led the men to butcher the Wild Chickens and Wild Rabbits.
Before long, the rabbits were skinned and cleaned. The other few people started Curing the rabbits. These men were all people who had trained in the Primeval Forest, so they were extremely familiar with these tasks.
