Chapter 2: Cutting off children and grandchildren
Chapter 2: Cutting off children and grandchildren
Yuan Man looked warily at the bearded man in front of him whose age was indistinguishable.
"Boss, she's a little thin, but she has a big butt. She's definitely a good fertile girl." A younger brother looked at Yuan Man with an obscene expression.
Blackbeard clicked his tongue, "It's a pity I have something to do tonight, otherwise I could really take her home to raise her, and then have her give birth to a child for me."
"Boss, how about giving some to the little ones to cheer them up?"
The gangster thought that if he succeeded tonight, he would have countless wealth, and with money, he would have all kinds of beauties. He waved his hand and said, "Here's a reward for you."
"Thank you, boss." Several younger brothers pulled Yuanman aside.
Yuanman glanced at the knives on their bodies and calculated the feasibility of his actions.
In such a dilapidated temple, she could only try to protect herself, and no one could save her.
She moved her fingers slightly, and when they pushed her hard, she pulled out the knife of the person closest to her and cut the throats of both men with a wave of her hand.
Blood immediately gushed out, and her face was stained with blood, making her originally cold expression even colder.
The other men reacted and immediately drew their knives and swung at her.
Yuan Man bent down to avoid the attack and cut the thighs of both men as he turned around.
Seeing this, Blackbeard stood up and looked at her with interest, "I didn't expect you to be such a fierce one. I like her."
Yuan Man's hands trembled slightly as he looked at them warily.
Outside the dilapidated temple, a group of people were closely watching what was happening inside.
Seeing Yuanman's actions, the leading man showed interest.
The man stared at Yuan Man with an expressionless face. Naturally, no one knew what he was thinking.
Blackbeard stood up and walked closer, looking at Yuan Man and said with a smile: "Follow me, and I will promise you wealth and glory."
"We have a big order tonight. Once we finish it, we will be the next mayor of Mingzhou."
Yuan Man looked at him coldly. She didn't know if she could beat the black-bearded man in front of her. She had learned Kung Fu for several years to train her body, but had never really fought.
I just killed someone to save my own life, not to mention that the other person was such a vicious person.
I tried my best to suppress the surging emotions in my heart and relieve myself psychologically.
She was right, yes, that's right.
If the other party doesn't die, you will be the one who dies.
It's not that she hasn't thought about giving in, but the price of giving in would very likely be becoming their plaything, so why not give it a try?
Seeing Blackbeard reaching out to grab him, Yuanman immediately tightened his grip on the knife.
Before she could make a move, she heard a whoosh and an arrow grazed Blackbeard's ear and pierced into the pillar, going three feet into the wood.
Blackbeard reacted quickly and rushed towards Yuan Man.
Yuan Man's reaction was not slow either. He rolled to this side and dodged the hand that was grabbing him, but he did not dodge the knives in the hands of the younger brothers next to him.
Blackbeard grabbed her, snatched the knife from her hand, put the knife to her neck and looked outside the temple.
Seeing the person coming in from the door, he showed a look of astonishment in his eyes, "Gu Cheng! Didn't you go to Xiaocheng? Why are you here?"
Gu Cheng waved the fan in his hand and said with a smile: "Tsk, can't I come back again?"
"Also, who gave you the courage to take over the Gu family? Do you really think that there is no one left in the Gu family?"
After all, the Gu family is the richest family in Mingzhou City. How can they be taken down by a few bandits?
Brain is a good thing, but unfortunately some people just don't have it.
Gu family?
Yuanman naturally knew the Gu family. Grandma and Xiaoyaer often went to the Gu family to beg for food.
The original owner was able to survive until now only because they occasionally went to the Gu family to beg for food.
Even in times of famine, they would occasionally give some, although not as much as before, but it was enough to barely fill the stomach.
Blackbeard knew that he had been deceived, and he couldn't help but use more force on the knife on Yuan Man's neck, and a trickle of blood flowed out from her neck.
"You set a trap for me."
Gu Chen sneered, "You are worthy of being set up by me?"
"I just happened to know that there was a termite in my house, so I wanted to see what the termite was up to."
Yuan Man felt a sharp pain in his neck, frowned, and glanced at the person who walked in with Gu Chen.
He is really good-looking, which perfectly fits her aesthetic, but unfortunately, his expression is too cold.
He kept staring at her coldly, as if she owed him money.
It's obvious that the two don't know each other.
Gu Cheng glanced at Yuan Man, then looked at Blackbeard and said, "Do you think you can escape by catching a beggar?"
"Who gave you the impression that I would let you go for her?"
Yuanman naturally did not put all her hopes on others, so she kept observing Blackbeard's emotions and also watching the younger brothers who surrounded them.
After making sure that there was no one behind him, the moment he noticed Blackbeard's hands shaking, Yuan Man immediately exerted his strength, pinched Blackbeard's acupoints to make him loosen his knife, and quickly turned around and kicked his descendants.
Just at this moment, the people on the other side took action and caught all the criminals in just one minute.
Gu Cheng came in front of Yuan Man and looked at her, "You..."
"Wow wow..."
The sound of the baby crying brought silence to the scene.
Yuanman quickly walked behind the Buddha statue and took Yuanbao out.
"Good baby, don't cry, mommy is here."
Maybe she's hungry. No matter how you coax her, it's useless, but she has no milk now.
I don’t know what grandma fed me last night.
Gu Cheng came closer and showed a surprised expression when he saw the child in her arms, "Why is this child so small?"
Can you keep it alive?
Of course, he wouldn't ask this question. He's not that stupid.
"Is this your child?"
"What else?" Yuan Man glanced at him, then looked at the cold man. Seeing that he was also looking at the Yuanbao in his arms, he couldn't help but frowned.
"Can I go now? The child is hungry and I have to find him something to eat."
"Uh." Gu Chen looked at Hui Chengyuan.
Hui Chengyuan glanced at him and turned to walk out.
Gu Cheng shrugged his shoulders and said, "Miss, please do as you please."
Yuan Man nodded and walked out. When she passed by the man, a familiar smell came into her nose, but she did not stop or think about it. She walked past him and went down the mountain.
Hui Chengyuan watched her walk away, his brows slightly furrowed.
This woman is too calm, which is totally not what an ordinary person should be like.
Gu Cheng came to his side and also watched Yuan Man's back as she walked down the mountain. "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with her?"
"But this girl looks frail, but she is actually very strong. She remained calm in the face of those bandits. Do you think she is a beggar?"
"That kick, tsk." If it was any more serious, my family line would be extinct.
Hui Chengyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, "Send someone to keep an eye on her, and report any movement to me."
"Pack up and leave for Kyoto tomorrow."
"Not taking two days' rest?" Gu Chen frowned slightly.
Hui Chengyuan shook his head, "There is no time to rest. There are still many refugees who need to be arranged."
Gu Chen sighed and said nothing more.
The famine of the past two years, coupled with internal strife, almost destroyed Hui State.
Fortunately, we have survived now, but there is still a lot of work to be done.
Yuanman coaxed Yuanbao down the mountain in a hurry, almost running.
As soon as we reached the foot of the mountain, we saw Grandma Liu coming towards us in a horse-drawn carriage.
"Grandma."
When Granny Liu saw her, she immediately ran towards her anxiously, "A-Man, why did you come out? You just gave birth and can't be exposed to the wind."
"Hurry up and get in." Granny Liu immediately helped her into the carriage.
"Thank you for your help, Uncle."
The driver was not a talkative man. He nodded, whipped the horse, and the carriage started moving.
