Exile after Divorce? Empty the Scumbag Husband First!-Chapter 358 - 344: The Same Inside Wuheng City

After saying these words with tears, Aunt Lu knelt down to bid farewell to Ruan Mian, then pulled out a knife from somewhere and without hesitation, cut off Lu Dalang’s manhood!

The huge wail echoed to the sky, and in the next moment, she stabbed Lu Dalang in the chest again.

Everyone was so frightened that they scattered, while she, after pulling out the knife, pointed it at herself.

Ruan Mian’s brow twitched, and she decisively gripped her wrist to stop her.

"If you just die like this, what’s the value? Aren’t you sorry for my effort to save you?"

It turned out that before this, birds and beasts had found Aunt Lu trapped in the flood, and Ruan Mian had Yun Xiu save her, taking the opportunity to ask about the sick pigs.

But unexpectedly, they encountered Lu Dalang’s wild rants and slander as if he were an actor.

Just in time, Aunt Lu became the one to expose his true nature.

But if she dies at this moment, wouldn’t it be a pity?

"If you want to repay me, why not help me with something."

Aunt Lu looked at her in utter despair, only to see Ruan Mian calmly speaking.

"You have meaning by living."

"Now, Wuheng has suffered such a catastrophe, and it is the time for people to be used. Those patients in the epidemic area are unattended. Since you want to seek death, why not go and do something meaningful."

"Raising the sick pigs was Lu Dalang’s idea, but you were also the assistant. Those infected with the disease are unattended and suffer pain daily. Help me take care of them, and I promise you, I will let you leave safely at that time, and then whether you want to live or die will be up to you."

Upon hearing this, Aunt Lu unhesitatingly threw away the knife and agreed.

"What Miss Ruan said is true. I originally had no intention of living, making some value before I die to make up for my mistakes is not bad either."

Seeing this, Ruan Mian helped her up and solemnly asked: "Lu Dalang is gone, but I believe you surely know where those sick pigs came from, right?"

Aunt Lu then truthfully told her: "He bought them from an outsider named Yan Qing; I don’t know why that man has so many sick pigs, nor do I know where he lives. I only know he once handed the sick pigs over to Lu Zhen at a mile outside Wuheng City."

Yan Qing...

Ruan Mian was somewhat unfamiliar with this name and couldn’t find this person in the original owner’s or her own memory after thinking for a while.

However, he sold so many sick pigs to Lu Dalang at once, and no one had heard of anyone raising so many pigs in Wuheng City before, plus he was an outsider.

Based on this, it could be inferred that he was either looking for suckers in Wuheng to do shady business, or he was... targeting her.

Could it also be one of Qin Fu or Wen Qiang’s people? Or one of the Fifth Princess’s people?

The Fifth Princess probably wouldn’t reach this far, it might be related to Wen Qiang.

But with the disaster that the city suffered now, finding this outsider might not be easy.

At this moment, a Junior General by General Huo’s side hurriedly arrived.

"Miss Ruan, hurry to see Lord Lin! Lord Lin is vomiting blood non-stop, fearing... fearing..."

The man’s anxious appearance made Yun Xiu feel anxious too. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

Ruan Mian had Yun Xiu settle Aunt Lu first and went back to the shelter herself.

By the time she got there, Lord Lin already looked like he couldn’t hold on much longer.

Dragging his last breath, he trembled as he handed the drawing hidden in his robes to Ruan Mian.

Then he exerted all his strength, speaking in a low voice.

"Miss Ruan, here... this is a blueprint for modifying the river course."

"Linfen River has suffered so much from this disaster. I am ashamed of the sage’s trust for not having built Wuheng City well, and now I fear I am about to depart. In my final moments, you are the only one I trust."

"I have already entrusted General Huo to arrange for people to build different stone figures on the Linfen River Shore during disaster relief. If Linfen River rises again, those stone figures can warn everyone to avoid repeating the same mistake."

"And this... this river course modification blueprint can also manage future flooding problems of the Linfen River."

At this point, he seemed to run out of strength.

Ruan Mian immediately held him down: "My Lord, don’t speak now, I have taken the blueprint. I understand your intentions, but you will not die."

She had given Lord Lin a lot of spiritual spring water and medicine before, but he showed no improvement at the moment, and his condition worsened. It could only be said that he hadn’t paid attention to rest during these few days, and instead, he was worried about the blueprint, injuring his foundation.

Seeing this, she quickly evacuated the people in the room, leaving only Aunt to help her.

Aunt understood her intention and guarded Lord Lin for her, while Ruan Mian went inside, urgently exchanging some medicines from the space.

Even though it cost her quite a bit of goodwill value, there was no time to worry about it now.

Lord Lin had already shown signs of septic shock. Besides basic antibiotic treatment, some vasoactive drugs to regulate blood pressure, and glucocorticoids to relieve inflammatory responses in the body were needed.

After feeding him the spiritual spring water and employing emergency methods, getting through this hurdle should be no problem.

She couldn’t bear to see a good man so caring for the people die innocently.

It was the evil people who illegally breached the embankment, causing such great consequences, who deserved to die!!

Aunt saw so many medicines, and they were some uncommon ones, which worried her mind.

"Mianmian, we have spent quite a bit of goodwill value? After this disaster, we are afraid we will consume a lot in the future."

Ruan Mian shook her head: "It’s fine, goodwill value can accumulate, and the space always exists. It’s not much trouble going from nothing to a lot. Besides, beyond the space, there is a treasure trove like Longchang Mountain here, there are plenty of ways for reconstruction, no need to worry."

"The urgent matter is to save Lord Lin."

As long as he doesn’t die, Ruan Mian’s heart will feel a bit more at ease.

But after administering these medicines, he has to ensure enough rest, otherwise, the body will not recover, and the use is in vain. For this, Ruan Mian specifically asked Yun Xiu to come over and watch over Lord Lin.

"During these days, don’t let Lord Lin get tired, I will have Nanny Zhou take care of his three meals a day personally."

"Ashu, you are the person I trust the most, I entrust this matter to you."

Yun Xiu nodded heavily, as long as it was something she explained, he would do it even if it cost him his head.

Post-disaster reconstruction is not so easy.

One wave has not ended before another begins.

A few days later, quite a few refugees from Yu Zhou descended on Longchang Mountain!

They starved for food, and upon arriving they recklessly snatched the food of local disaster victims, devouring like wolves, fighting to the death!

When Ruan Mian led people to arrive there, she found a group of people wrangling, and the situation was momentarily chaotic.

Even the patients who should have been isolated on the other side couldn’t help but drag their sick bodies out to watch the commotion.

Several government officers under Lord Lin tried to soothe, but even if they wielded authority at the moment, it was to no avail, nobody was listening to them.

The group of refugees, desperate for food, seemed to be driven to desperation, disregarding all morality and justice, as long as it was food, whether it was in someone else’s hands or elsewhere, they would grab it first.

And the disaster victims of Wuheng, how could they contend with them?

Only to be repeatedly provoked, until finally retaliating.

The leading government officer was so headaches, seeing Ruan Mian coming over, as if seeing a savior, hurriedly went to her side and repeatedly spoke up.

"Miss Ruan!! You finally arrived; where did these people come fleeing from, being so unreasonable and robbing things as they arrive? Although they are few, they all act like bandits. They dare to lay hands on anyone!"

"I think we should quickly find General Huo and them, let the General bring those lords over to deal with them!"

Ruan Mian saw those people and already had an idea.

She walked to two men wrestling with each other and without hesitation drew a sharp dagger from her sleeve.

The shining blade startled that man, but after a moment of daze, he assumed a fearless look and shouted angrily.

"What? Want me dead?"
