Chapter 333: The Table (First Update)_1
Doctor Wang’s medicinal powder worked very well. In just two days out of the space, the wound had healed and began to scab and grow new flesh, but to be fully healed, it would probably take another month or so.
Dabai was finally free from the torment of constant pain.
During this time, Gu Yao was very responsible, digging up the ancestry of Qian Er and his two companions all the way back to their great-grandparents. It turned out that the kid hadn’t lied; all three were from poor backgrounds.
Qian Er was from Niu Family Village in Peach Blossom Town, and he had an old father who depended solely on him. However, since the old man had injured his leg while working in the past, he now couldn’t move or take care of himself at all. Since the boss had died, it had been the kid who took care of him.
As for Chengzi and Liang Zi, both were orphans who used to beg for a living. Later, when Qian Er mixed into society, he met them, and the three formed a gang.
The three hadn’t really committed any major crimes; they just made small troubles to get by. Sometimes, when they encroached on others’ territory, they would get caught by people from other gangs and beaten up.
For a few months, the three had been roaming around the Prefectural City. Once, they had worked as attendants in a gambling house, but their gambling house made enemies with another one. After the bosses led their men in a brawl, their boss got his legs broken and fled with the money, leaving these underlings to fend for themselves.
Luckily, the other side didn’t pursue the matter with the servants, and the three were fortunate to escape with their lives. Therefore, they quickly left the Prefectural City for the county town three months ago. But there was a Ground Snake in the county town; they wanted to join, but got snubbed. In the end, they had no choice but to return to the town.
