Rebirth of the Godly Prodigal

Hearing Hong Dali’s instructions, the male lackey ran out like a gust of wind. In just a few minutes, he carried a big black plastic bag with at least 20 cartons of cigarettes inside and ran back. Just a quick look at the packaging and one would know that it was all genuine goods.

“Not bad,” Hong Dali said with a dazzling smile. “Keen senses and fast in acting.” Then he said, “Take all the boxes out from the carton.” Then a group of people started to remove the cigarettes in front of the prisoners.

After a carton was emptied, Hong Dali picked up a box of cigarettes and threw them out. He smiled and said, “Take it, I will need you to do something for me later.”

The prisoner suddenly had his eyes straight and held the cigarette tightly in his hands like a professional pitcher holding a baseball. He felt as if he had won a five million lottery, and his eyes filled with indescribable ecstasy and satisfaction.

With such an example in front of them, the prisoners in the other cells started making earth-shattering noises, squeezing each other to get near the door. It seemed as if they desperately wanted to get out and kill their most hated enemy.

Hong Dali laughed and began to throw boxes of cigarettes away. After throwing more than half of them out, he then said, “Help me do something later.”

After hearing the God of Fortune issue an order, the prisoners directly kneeled down and said, “If Young Master needs help in anything, please tell us. We will do it no matter what!”

Cells deeper into the passageway were empty. Thus, there was no much disturbance in their journey. Hong Dali and his party soon came to cell 205.

This was a single cell located at the end of the passageway.

As the Prison Warden of this prison, Cao Jianrong naturally understood what a place cell 205 was.

It could be said that this was the cell with the most savage and cruel prisoners on the second floor. They all followed the law of the jungle. Only the fiercest and most cruel person could become the boss of cell 205, and even the boss of the second floor. Everyone had to obey what the boss said.

Standing at the entrance of cell 205, Prison Warden Cao carefully said, “Young Master, allow me to call people to go in and ask Ling Mufeng to come out. I don’t want to dampen your mood.” After reaching here, Cao Jianrong felt as if he had reached the gate of hell. However, he could only muster up his courage and open the gate, as if making his last desperate stand.

Hong Dali didn’t care about Cao Jianrong’s words. He pulled him to the side and said, “Since we are already here, how could we not go in and explore?”

Cold sweat started to form on Cao Jianrong’s forehead. He desperately retreated to a corner, with his body trembling in fear, afraid to voice out anything anymore.

In fact, it couldn’t be blamed on Cao Jianrong for being so timid.

Cell 205 was different from normal cells. Only the fiercest and most cruel prisoners were held inside, partly due to the prison’s rules.

The first floor generally held thieves who did not make such big offenses and were usually released after around ten days. Thus, the first floor was the closest to the exit, making it more convenient for the prisoners to be sent in and released.

The second floor was completely different. It mainly kept inmates that were imprisoned for a period between one to ten years. To have been sentenced to such a long period, which one of them did not have blood in their hands? Fighting was thus a daily affair for those kept on the second floor.

Those in cell 205 were the ones sentenced the longest in the entire second floor. Every single one of them inside was dangerous and had a part in bloody crimes at least once in their life.

For Ling Mufeng to be sent into such a cell, one could imagine his fate.

As for those on the third floor, most of them were prisoners sentenced for more than ten years. Even the time of release was different from the prisoners below. If they were lucky, they could survive and walk out of prison. However, most of them did not live to see the daylight outside of prison. On the third floor, it was a common practice for them to fight until death. It was a place where only the fittest survived.

However, what Hong Dali was most worried about was not whether or not Ling Mufeng was bullied in the cell.

After entering cell 205, getting bullied was a small matter that didn’t even need to be mentioned.

What Hong Dali was most worried about was the thirst and desire of the inmates to release themselves after being kept inside for so long.

Not to say the presence of a woman, even if it were the picture of a woman, the prisoners in the cell would not mind killing a person for it. He was scared that if Ling Mufeng looked girly, he would be a target for violation and release. If that were to happen, it would certainly leave a scar in his heart.

Hong Dali took in a deep breath and said, “Alright, open the door.”

“O… Okay…” Cao Jianrong opened the door unwillingly and led the way with his few guards.

Hong Dali brought along Tang Muxin and his lackeys and headed in.

Compared with other cells, cell 205 was nearly double in size. The room was ten meters long, eight meters wide, and four meters high. The ambiance was relatively dark. Of course, part of this was due to the prisoners. A prison had to have such an environment.

There were a total of 16 iron bunk beds in the room, all of which were welded to the wall. It was difficult for even a muscular hunk to move the bed. This was to avoid the escalation of a fight into a murder case.

The central area of the cell could be considered quite spacious. An air vent was located in the ceiling with iron bars welded on the inside. A bathroom was located in the corner. Although the toilet had a flush, it still smelled bad.

But it was also due to this that the bathroom became one of the root causes of frequent turmoil here. It was no exaggeration to say that if one did not mix well here, going to the toilet was going to be a big problem.

One could imagine someone kicking in the bathroom while another was doing his big business. What a scene it would be.

At this time, there were more than 20 prisoners in the cell sitting in the middle of the open space. Among them, four of them were playing poker, and about fifteen prisoners were applauding around.

The youngest person outside was busy cleaning up the cell. His height was about 1.78m. He had beautiful eyebrows, looked handsome, and his skin could be said to be flawlessly white. Without thinking, he should be Xiaoyi’s little brother, Ling Mufeng.

However, the relatively handsome young man was currently wearing a prison uniform. His exposed skin was covered with purple-black bruises. His nose was red and swollen, eyes black and blue, and the corners of his mouth were already torn, with dried blood stains near his mouth. As for his hair, it had already been shaved, leaving about five millimeters of baby hair.

Hong Dali nodded his head. At least, he still seemed pretty good and masculine and would not be regarded as a sissy by the inmates. His purity should have been kept.

Seeing his brother again, Ling Xiaoyi couldn’t help but start crying.

Hong Dali shook his head silently. No wonder she had cried like this. Fortunately, they had come early. Otherwise, Ling Mufeng would have suffered much more than this.

With such a sudden influx of people in cell 205, everyone instantly turned their attention to Hong Dali, guessing what his intentions were.

When Ling Mufeng saw such a scene, especially that the Prison Warden and his sister were there, he decisively ran towards them. The male lackeys then surrounded him in an effort to protect him.

At this time, a muscular man in the crowd who had an eagle tattoo on his arm stood up and looked at Hong Dali. He smiled and said, “Hey, younger brother, what are you here for? Are you here to visit your relatives?”

“En, I’m indeed here to visit my relative.” Hong Dali smilingly said, “How may I address this big brother?”

“Easy, calling me Old Eagle is fine.” Although he said this, he was thinking otherwise in his heart. This is cell 205. Someone without a good background would not be able to enter so easily, much less have the Prison Warden escorting him. Who is this guy? Does he have some relation to the young man called Ling Mufeng?

Hong Dali didn’t bother to reply to him but turned towards Ling Mufeng and asked: “Is your virginity still there?”

Ling Mufeng suddenly jerked up and unconsciously touched his butt before nodding his head hurriedly.

Old Eagle and the others suddenly quietened down before bursting out into laughter. Old Eagle held his belly and loudly laughed. “Hahahaha, did you hear him? This kid actually asked if his virginity was still there, hahaha! It turns out you are actually visiting him, but still, is it me or is it that the world has changed too fast, hahaha!”

Everyone laughed extremely arrogantly. Cao Jianrong was preparing to give them a warning to teach them a lesson, but Hong Dali immediately turned around and left. “Hey, let’s go out and talk.”

“Young Master Dali, that’s it?” Cao Jianrong asked.

“Of course not.” After exiting cell 205, Hong Dali turned towards Ling Mufeng. “Do you still remember who beat you up inside?”

“All of them did.” Ling Mufeng gritted his teeth and said, “Even when I went the toilet, I didn’t have any peace.”

“That’s simple.” Hong Dali went back and shouted, “Brothers, come out to help me!”

All the prisoners outside replied loudly: “Young Master, please instruct us!”

Hong Dali twitched his nose before smiling. “Do you see that cell? I will let everyone go in later. Help me beat them up! Don’t let anyone go off unhurt! Everyone who acts will get a thousand. It’s up to you to decide how you want to spend the money!”

To release the prisoners privately when it was not the official time to do so would land them in punishment. However, at this moment, Hong Dali didn’t even hesitate to ask his lackeys to release the prisoners. Anyway, the situation had already escalated to such a point. Even if anything were to happen, Hong Dali would cover for him. What was there to hesitate about?

After the door of the first cell was opened, a muscular man with a height of nearly 1.9 meters, bald head, a “loyal” word on the neck, thick eyebrows, and thick lips appeared. He should be the leader of all of the people here.

Hong Dali was satisfied with his body build and thus asked, “How may I address this big brother here?”

The muscular man replied, “I’m called Cheng Quandao. Young Master can just call me Xiao Dao.”

“En, not bad,” Hong Dali stepped forward and touched his muscles, “Not bad, your muscles are firm enough. Tip him, 2000!”

Three male lackeys immediately stepped forward and counted 2000 before passing it to Xiao Dao. The rest of the prisoners all had 1000. The prisoners were all unprecedentedly obedient. They all queued to receive the money before standing at the side quietly awaiting further orders. After everyone had their share of the money, Hong Dali twitched his nose and shouted, “Brothers, let’s do it!”

A thousand, this was an astronomical sum in the prison. The prisoners were all hyped up and thrilled, to the point where their faces even turned red in excitement.

“Open the door.” Hong Dali snapped his fingers and ordered, “Just don’t beat them to death.”

Cao Jianrong let loose a sigh of relief and once again opened the door to cell 205.

Then, the group of prisoners screamed and rushed in. Cao Jianrong’s timid little heart almost jumped out of his chest. Oh, heavens, I didn’t see anything. I didn’t see anything.
