198 The escapees attempt robbery (1/2)

In the middle of the night, Ren Xiaosu's sudden walk into the wilderness by himself shocked many people. No matter what he intended to do, the fact that someone would venture out alone was very surprising to the escapees. After all, the wolves were still out there.

But now Ren Xiaosu returned carrying a large rabbit in tow. Did he go hunting just now?

Seeing as the weather was freezing as snow continued falling heavily from the sky, a lot of people were worried they would get buried under the snow when they woke up. But even in such bad weather, someone still went out to hunt and returned with such a large rabbit.

When the Wolf King dropped the rabbit, the snow was already very deep. Ren Xiaosu watched quietly as the Wolf King cleared a path through the snow by walking in front while the other wolves followed behind it. That would make the walk much easier in the snow.

Ren Xiaosu did not know what the Wolf King's intention was when it left him a rabbit. But he found it a little odd.

On the way back to the campsite, he noticed many people staring at him in surprise. However, Ren Xiaosu would never explain to them that the wolves gave him the rabbit.

When he got back, Yan Liuyuan asked, ”Bro, did you hunt the rabbit yourself?”

Ren Xiaosu whispered, ”The wolves gave it to me. That Wolf King doesn't seem to have any malice towards us. For now, we won't have to worry too much. At the very least, we don't have to worry about the wolves attacking us.”

If the wolves had any malicious intent, killing Ren Xiaosu just now would definitely have been the best opportunity they had. After all, the distance between them earlier was just a leap away.

Ren Xiaosu was not in a hurry to eat the rabbit. Since everyone was already asleep and ate dinner in the evening, they definitely would not feel too hungry yet.

The escapees around them were so hungry their eyes gleamed upon seeing the rabbit. After all, some of them did not have anything to eat as they fled over the past two days. If it hadn't snowed today, they would not even have replenished the water lost from their bodies.

The snow may have looked white, but it was not as clean as you would think. Ren Xiaosu knew the escapees would pay the price for casually putting things in their mouths when they woke up the next morning.

Currently, only a miniscule number of escapees still had any food left on them, while most of the others were famished with nothing to eat. When some people saw Ren Xiaosu bringing such a large rabbit back, their eyes lit up.

Some of those people were whispering among themselves, apparently discussing something. Yan Liuyuan glanced at Ren Xiaosu. ”Bro, you'd better make an example of some of them quickly so that the others won't get any ideas.”

Ren Xiaosu looked up at those escapees. ”Upon identifying the ringleaders, we'll kill them off. Wudi, make sure to protect everyone when it gets chaotic later. I'll handle the killing.” When Ren Xiaosu mentioned killing people, his expression didn't change.

Then he noticed Jiang Wu had also woken up. Jiang Wu said, ”Xiaosu, do you have any weapons to spare? Can you lend one to me?”

Jiang Wu and her students had also brought a lot of food with them. Although the escapees looked like they were only interested in the rabbit for now, Jiang Wu's group was also in danger of being targeted.

However, Jiang Wu did not request Ren Xiaosu to protect them as well. Instead, she wanted to borrow a weapon from him so they could protect themselves. Because Jiang Wu and her students had a separate campfire, it looked like they were two separate groups of people. Ren Xiaosu had also mentioned to Jiang Wu before that they would have to depend on themselves once they had escaped into the wilderness.

Ren Xiaosu smiled and quietly handed a gun to Jiang Wu. After the events of Stronghold 109, he had amassed quite a few firearms in his storage space. At the very least, he had enough to issue one to each person in their group.

When the Li Consortium's troops were attacked by those under the control of Li Shentan, many soldiers had died and a lot of their guns went missing. Ren Xiaosu was there at the scene.

”Ms. Jiang, do you know how to use a gun?” Ren Xiaosu asked.

Jiang Wu shook her head. ”No.”

Ren Xiaosu asked again, ”Then have you killed a person before?”

”No.” Jiang Wu shook her head again. However, her tone soon became determined as she said, ”For the sake of my students, I can do it.”

”Why not you give the gun to a male student to hold? Wang Yuchi looks quite strong. He can learn how to do this,” Ren Xiaosu said.
