Beast Summoner

"We didn't commit any crime. We were framed because we didn't want to be complicit." Meng Ting'an's eyes widened with anger, very angry at Omega's slander.

"Don't want to join in the conspiracy? With whom?" Omega raised his eyebrows, obviously he didn't believe what Meng Tingan said.

"Who else could it be? Of course it's the Hou Guangzu who was cut into pieces!" Meng Ting'an said through gritted teeth.

"Hou Guangzu...Meng Ting'an..." Li Zhenbang frowned, not because he didn't believe Meng Ting'an's words, but because he was thinking that there are many nobles who can be related to Hou Guangzu, and there should be many who have grudges, but in this situation

There shouldn't be that many bloody feuds within the Jinguang City area.

Li Zhenbang suddenly had a flash of consciousness, "Who are you, Meng Junru?"

"..." Meng Tingan's eyes suddenly turned red, but he didn't speak.

"It seems that there is indeed a relationship between you two." Li Zhenbang nodded. Meng Junru was not a big shot, but his family's affairs caused a sensation.

Meng Junru was once the other deputy city lord of Jinguangcheng besides Hou Guangzu. After committing a crime, he was expelled from Jinguangcheng and was sentenced to not set foot in Jinguangcheng for life.

When people are unlucky, their teeth will become clogged when they drink cold water, and their heels will collapse when they fart. After Meng Junru and his family left the city, they were all killed by bandits and their property was robbed.

"Didn't you say that Meng Junru's family was killed by bandits? Moreover, a group of bandits were executed by Hou Guangzu because of this incident. Why did Hou Guangzu become your enemy? He should have helped you take revenge, right?"

Li Zhenbang asked doubtfully.

Although he had not seen what happened to Meng Junru's family with his own eyes, he had heard about it.

After all, he was a deputy city lord. Even a deputy city lord who had just been demoted was killed by bandits not long after leaving the city. The bandits were really too arrogant.

"Nonsense! All this was planned by Hou Guangzu. The so-called robbers who were killed were basically the people our family took in, but they mixed some robbers who should have been executed!" Meng Ting'an

He roared through gritted teeth and slapped the table. The table shattered with the sound, and all the plates and bowls on the table fell to the ground.

Li Zhenbang did not speak. Although he did not know the truth of the matter, Meng Tingan's words were not impossible.

History is always written by the winner, and the loser has no chance to argue, so the winner is always righteous, and the loser is always evil.

Meng Junru's family is indeed, as Meng Ting'an said, not a famous family, let alone a big family. Counting servants, there are only about a hundred or so people in the family, and the number of people in the family cannot even compare with that of a noble with some qualifications.

Therefore, even if they were framed and exterminated, no one would redress their injustice, because no one in Jinguang City would dare to offend Hou Guangzu.

Others may not know the situation in Jinguang City, but as a direct bloodline of the Hong Maple Leaf family, and someone who is highly respected by the family, he is still very aware of some of the forces within the Carlo Empire.

Hou Guangzu was like a local emperor in Jinguang City. Even the city lord Zhao Shouquan could only turn a blind eye and not dare to take advantage of him, let alone others.

"What evidence do you have to prove what you said? Since you have a mouth, you can naturally say whatever you want." Omega rolled his eyes at Meng Ting'an, obviously not believing what Meng Ting'an said.

"I... hum! Believe it or not, sooner or later I will make this matter known to the world, and let Hou Guangzu's family bury our Meng family together!" Meng Ting'an snorted coldly, with a fierce light in his eyes.

"What? Are you afraid? You want to hand me over to the people in Jin Guangcheng? That's right, you have offended the people in Jin Guangcheng. If you hand me back, maybe you can reconcile." Meng Ting'an looked disdainful.

The tone was full of sarcasm.

"Afraid? Huh! I've grown up so old and still don't know how to write the word "fear"! Do you know who he is?" Omega pointed at Li Zhenbang and asked Meng Ting'an.

"It doesn't matter who he is? I think my father was from the line of the city lord Zhao Shouguan, but that old fox Zhao Shouguan didn't say a word at that time. Can you have a higher background than Zhao Shouguan?" Meng Tingan sat down with some dejection.

On the chair, after his identity was exposed, he had already determined his ending.

"As for background, my background doesn't seem to be any worse than his." Li Zhenbang rubbed his nose. Zhao Shouquan's background is that he has a good background, but his own background is not bad either, and he is not just as simple as his background.

"You have a good background? How can you be Zhao Tianlong?" Meng Ting'an curled his lips disdainfully. The young man in front of him really had a good tone, and he was not afraid of the wind flashing his tongue.

"I'm definitely not Zhao Tianlong, how old is he, but I still have some relationship with Zhao Tianlong." Li Zhenbang said humbly.

"Does it matter?" Meng Ting'an raised his eyebrows, obviously not believing what Li Zhenbang said.

"Believe it or not, it's up to you." Li Zhenbang glanced at Meng Ting'an and did not argue. He just shrugged his shoulders because he felt that there was no point in arguing about this kind of thing.

Seeing Li Zhenbang's appearance, Meng Ting'an didn't say anything, and the scene became quiet. If Li Zhenbang argued with him, he would think that Li Zhenbang was really bragging, but Li Zhenbang's lack of bother to argue made him believe Li Zhenbang's words.

"Who...are you?" After the silence lasted for a moment, Meng Ting'an asked softly.

"Is it important?" Li Zhenbang looked at Meng Ting'an calmly.

"Then can you help me get revenge?" Meng Ting'an looked at Li Zhenbang expectantly.

"No!" Li Zhenbang refused without any hesitation.

"Why?" Meng Ting'an shouted excitedly.

"Why?" Li Zhenbang still looked at Meng Ting'an calmly and asked the same question.

When asked by Li Zhenbang, Meng Ting'an was stunned.

That's right! Why do they want to help themselves? They saved their own lives, and they didn't let themselves repay. What qualifications do I have to let them help me? They don't owe themselves, but they owe them.

"If you can help me get revenge, I will tell you a huge secret." Meng Ting'an took a deep breath and said mysteriously.

"What a big secret? What big secret do you know?" Li Zhenbang looked at Meng Ting'an in confusion.

Meng Ting'an glanced at everyone, and finally looked at Li Zhenbang, but said nothing.

"Don't worry, they are all people I can trust." Li Zhenbang certainly understood what Meng Ting'an meant. Meng Ting'an wanted him to transfer everyone else out and talk to him alone.

Meng Ting'an hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Li Zhenbang again, and found that Li Zhenbang was still insisting, so he had to take a deep breath, his eyes became extremely hot, "A huge secret that can make the country richer than anyone else."

"As rich as the country?" Li Zhenbang raised his eyebrows. He had no doubts about whether it was true or not.

"You don't believe it?" Seeing Li Zhenbang's expression, Meng Ting'an thought Li Zhenbang didn't believe him.

"I'm afraid it's because of this secret that you can survive until now, right?" Li Zhenbang patted Meng Ting'an on the shoulder and chuckled.

"That's right, it's because I know this secret that I'm alive until now." Meng Ting'an sneered.

It is true that Meng Ting'an has survived to this day because of this secret, but he has also suffered inhuman torture.

Ordinary laborers working in the mines are paid wages and food, and can even secretly bring in some to subsidize their families. However, slaves like them can only work hard day and night, without enough food and clothing, and have to endure supervisors.

whipped, and even faced the threat of death at any time.

Meng Ting'an's situation is quite special, so it is not his turn to do very dangerous work, but he is indispensable for hard work, tiring work and dirty work.

If the overseers tortured other slaves to make them work more, then torturing Meng Ting'an was purely for fun and entertainment.

Meng Ting'an went out early and came back late every day. No matter whether he did good or bad, he was beaten all over his body every day. But that wasn't enough. The supervisors also tampered with Meng Ting'an's meager meals.

It is common to eat disgusting insects such as cockroaches and dung beetles, and it is even possible to eat part of the body parts of dung beetles.

The purpose of the supervisors was actually very clear, which was to torture Meng Ting'an severely both physically and mentally. When he couldn't bear it anymore, he would naturally tell everything the supervisors wanted to know.

The supervisors are also competing with each other, because whoever can make Meng Tingan successfully spit out the information will rise to the top.

But Meng Ting'an gritted his teeth and persisted, because he wanted to live, and only by living could he have a chance for revenge.

In fact, Meng Tingan still had a faint hope in her heart, that is, she hoped that one day the injustice would be vindicated for her family.

But he had waited for too long. The dignified deputy city lord of Jinguang City died, and His Majesty the King seemed to know nothing and did not take any action.

Gradually, Meng Ting'an became disheartened, and the only thought left in his mind was to live for revenge.

"Tell me your secret first! See if it's worth the price!" Li Zhenbang neither refused nor agreed.

"A vein of gold, even if you dig with all your strength, you can unearth a vein of gold that lasts for hundreds of years!" Meng Ting'an raised his heart and directly threw out a blockbuster message.

But what surprised Meng Ting'an was that neither Li Zhenbang nor anyone else seemed to be interested in the golden veins he mentioned, and no one felt excited.

"You...don't you want it?" Meng Tingan looked at Li Zhenbang in astonishment.

If it were some kind of rare treasure, maybe Li Zhenbang and others would be interested in it, but for Li Zhenbang and others, the gold mine had no meaning at all. Instead, it felt less tangible than gold coins.
