By the river, a wealthy merchant who did business with the Li family was terrified of Chen Shi's potential wrath and quickly ordered his people to take action. Earlier, Chen Shi and Fu Leisheng had been so ruthless, leaving dozens of bodies behind, that it was frightening. If they angered them, they feared they might also be in trouble.
"Offending the Li family so severely, these two are truly reckless and evil. Do they even know what death means?" The merchant's family shook their heads in secret and instructed, "Prepare Mr. Zeng's body and send it to the provincial capital. Make sure to find someone clever to handle it."
The group gathered Mr. Zeng's remains, placed them in a coffin, and then someone brought a cart pulled by an ox to transport the coffin to the provincial capital.
The journey from New Township County to the provincial capital was quite far, and the ox cart was slow. By the time they reached the capital, it was already the next day.
