Chapter 696: Pleaded Guilty

The villagers knew that Wang Yao seemed to have bought an imported car through the cultivation of medicinal materials. He had also bought a house in the county. Some people had such an idea, but no one had done it before.

The matter of planting medicinal herbs was settled.

The next day, Wang Zecheng came to Wang Yao’s medical hall and asked him about the cultivation of herbs.

“I recommend several herbs to you, gentian, radix sileris, and sealwort,” Wang Yao said. “You don’t have to worry about selling. I can provide seeds and seedlings, but I have requirements.”

“What requirements do you have?” Wang Zecheng asked.

“You cannot use any fertilizer,” Wang Yao said.

“No problem,” Wang Zecheng said.

“I have a few books here. You can take a look.” Wang Yao took two books from the table.

One of the books was about the cultivation of medicinal materials. He had studied and read it when he first started planting medicine on the mountain. The book with the most basic things explained in it was very valuable. When he first planted the medicine, he was very careful.

“Thank you.” Wang Zecheng was very grateful.

“So, how is your dad doing?” Wang Yao asked.

“He is alright,” Wang Zecheng said

He had been taking the drugs given by Wang Yao. His mood was also very good. His condition seemed to be well controlled and had not deteriorated, so he was very content.

“Well, the medicine must be taken on time,” Wang Yao said

Wang Zecheng took the books home and discussed it with his wife. They chose a piece of land at the foot of Dongshan Hill. It was their family’s land and was close to home. It was not suitable to plant crops, but it was for planting herbs.

…

In Jing…

“Brother, what are you thinking about it?” Cao Hui had just returned home. She was very tired, mentally and physically.

“I recognize it!” Cao Meng sighed. “Let me be discharged, and you will accompany me to go there.”

“Brother, you can’t go out of hospital in this situation,” one of the people who had just arrived said.

They didn’t know the truth, but they knew that he would be likely to die if he went out. If he was dead, who else would give them money?

“Shut up!” Cao Meng weakly screamed. “Alas, I would not have done it if I had known it would develop in this way!”

These days, lying in bed, he had been thinking about the things he had done in the past. The term “scumbag,” in fact, was not enough to describe him. What he had done was extremely bad. He did much to harm other’s families.It was not intentional murder, but it could be seen as indirect murder.

“This may be really retribution,” Cao Meng faintly said.

“What? You have chosen to leave the hospital at this time?!” The attending doctor listened to their request and was very surprised. “He is still able to save his life in the hospital. Once he goes out, I can’t save it.”

“I know the doctor,” Cao Meng said. “We will bear any consequences.”

“That’s good, and you need to sign here.” The doctor saw that they were very determined.

After thinking about it for a while, he approved them to leave the hospital. After the patient went out, they would not be responsible for any accidents.

Cao Hui and Cao He signed the papers. They asked the doctor for some drugs that would temporarily stabilize his condition. After hiring a comfortable car, they left the capital and headed straight to Lianshan County.

“Brother, why is he doing this?” one of his men asked

Cao Meng went to Lianshan County with only Cao Hui and Cao He. He left the other four people in Jing to take care of the other three people still in the hospital.

“Who knows,” another man said.

“Isn’t he going to escape?” the other man asked.

“Escape, where can he go?” the first man said.

“Look at the boss,” the other man said. “He is at the edge of death, and the two people are his cronies. Is he looking for a place to arrange the money and divide it?”

“It could be possible,” the first man said. “Maybe we should follow them!”

“But, where is the boss going to?” the other man said.

“He must be going back to his hometown,” the first man said. “I have heard that the boss has said it more than once that leaves are going to fall back to the roots.”

“Yes, he might go back home,” a third man said.

“What are we waiting for?” a fourth man said. “Let’s go back in a hurry. Otherwise, it will be too late!”

The four men rushed out of the hospital and drove the car to Cao Meng’s hometown. As for the three patients who were in the hospital and needed care, who had time to take care of them? They were not relatives. They were nothing but a temporary team.

“Hey, where are they?” The nurse saw that the patients were left alone and frowned.

Cao Zizhen sighed. He guessed he would die like there. He recalled his hometown, the dilapidated house, and his parents.

I deserve it!

The car was flying down the road. Cao Meng was laying in the seat. He had no strength at all. He was almost a dead man now.

“Brother, hold on,” Cao He said.

They set off from the capital in the morning and arrived at Lianshan County in the dark. They quickly found a hotel to stay in. The next morning, they went to the mountain village and waited outside the clinic.

The mountains were very quiet. Smoke curled up form kitchen chimneys.

It was after 8 a.m. when Wang Yao came down from the mountain and saw the vehicles parked outside the clinic.

After seeing him, Cao Hui came to the front. “Dr. Wang.”

“Is he coming?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yes, he has come,” Cao Hui said.

“Come on in,” Wang Yao said.

Two people carried Cao Meng into the clinic.

“Have you decided?” Wang Yao asked.

“Yeah.” Cao Meng was powerless.

“That is good,” Wang Yao said.

He made a phone call to the police station in the town.

“Pleading guilty?” The people who received the call were all stunned.

They quickly sent people to the clinic. They were shocked when they saw Cao Meng. “This is?!”

“You have interrogated him,” Wang Yao calmly said.

“How did he become like this?” a police officer asked.

“He has done too many bad things, so natural retribution came,” Wang Yao said.

“Tell me,” a police officer said.

Cao Meng said, without any energy, that he had received a strange phone call. The caller discussed how to blackmail Wang Yao and how to implement it.

Humph! Wang Yao snorted when he heard his statement. “You are not being honest!”

These people were impossible when it came to repenting.

Cao Meng gasped. Wang Yao reached out and beat him a few times in his abdomen before giving him a bowl of medicine.

This time, Cao Meng did not vomit. He felt his abdomen was warm. He had suffered a lot in recent days. After drinking the bowl of medicine, he felt more comfortable.

“What about the old man?” the police officer asked.

Cao Meng was stunned. Sure enough, there was no chance of luck. “We gave him the medicine.”

“What medicine?” the police officer asked.

“It was a recipe,” Cao Meng said. “We really don’t know the ingredients.”

The police officers listened and looked at each other. Wang Yao had been suspected of murder. The nature of the matter was completely different from what Cao Meng had said before.

“You are responsible for what you said,” a police officer said.

“I am telling the truth,” Cao Meng said.

The matter had gone far enough. As for either painful death or humble living, he chose the latter.

The police officers couldn’t totally be in charge of all the information, so they immediately reported it. Some other people soon came to deal with the case. In view of the patient’s situation, they only recorded the statement.

It was almost finished.

Wang Yao turned away the things he had left on Cao Meng. At the same time, he removed the stasis in his meridians and acupoints. It sounded complicated, but it only took a short time.

Ah! Cao Meng took a long sigh of relief. It was like getting amnesty.

Of course, he hated Wang Yao, but he really had no thoughts to revenge. He was about to face jail. He did want to not extend the hatred and other things to his offspring.

Cao Meng was hospitalized again and entered the Lianshan County People’s Hospital. This time, it was different. He was specially guarded by the police because he was suspected of fraud and murder. The latter was a felony.

“I’ll be like this for the rest of my life. Don’t revenge me!” Cao Meng told Cao Hui and Cao He. “Look for a good job. Stay in peace and stability.”

“Brother, take care of yourself first,” Cao He said with a pale face.

Cao Meng pleaded guilty. There were still seven others left, and those people were all about to get their punishment.
