Chapter 340: Chapter 343: Do You Need Assistance?_1
Qiao Duo’er snorted lightly, "You better worry about yourself, instead of having your whole family wiped out."
"Big brother, look at this girl, she’s got a sharp tongue and doesn’t look half bad. Why don’t I grab her for you and send her to your bed tonight..."
"That’s a good idea. What are you waiting for? Hurry up and grab this old woman too. She looks like she could be a good hand at work."
Qiao Duo’er slammed the kitchen knife down on the chopping board: "You’re looking for death!"
She originally wanted to negotiate with these people, but now there’s no need.
"Aiyo, little sister, I just love that you’re so feisty." As he spoke, he reached out to touch Qiao Duo’er’s cheek.
That skin was smooth and delicate, surely a great feel to the touch.
A slight smile tugged at the corner of Qiao Duo’er’s mouth, she was waiting for the opportunity to chop off one of his salty pig hands.
Just as she was about to make her move, someone grabbed the man’s hand, and then he let out a wail.
Listening closely, one could possibly hear the sound of bones breaking, no wonder he was howling so ghostly.
"Zheng Hong, how did you get here?" Qiao Duo’er was surprised.
Tan Zhenghong explained: "Da Ya was worried and told me that Madam Liang had come over, so I rushed here."
He didn’t expect that as soon as he arrived he’d see someone trying to insult his wife, and without a second thought, he grabbed the man’s arm.
Qiao Duo’er was his Achilles’ heel, to touch her was to court death.
"Need help?" Qiao Duo’er raised an eyebrow.
Tan Zhenghong shook his head, these few goons were enough for him to handle.
Besides, as a man of swagger, if he couldn’t even protect his wife, wouldn’t he rather die of shame?
"Big words, there’s still time for lovey-dovey, truly courting death. Brothers, attack! Kill the man, keep the woman!"
At these words, the other thugs rushed forward.
Tan Zhenghong let out a cold humph and took down the gang leader with one hand, then freed both hands to attack the others.
Qiao Duo’er narrowed her eyes, this guy had good martial arts skills, if he took her as his master, she could assure him that he would fend off thousands single-handedly.
The battle was on the edge of eruption, and Sun Erhu, fearing Tan Zhenghong might be at a disadvantage, also joined in.
There were many thugs, and some took advantage of the chaos to grab Qiao Duo’er and Chao Lian.
Qiao Duo’er lifted her foot and kicked the man in the chest, sending him flying two or three meters away.
Hu’s Clan pulled Chao Lian aside, knowing Qiao Duo’er’s abilities; she and Chao Lian staying out of the way was the best help they could offer.
"Yeah, sister is so powerful, kill the bad guys, go for it..."
The little child on the side was excited, and even though his family was covering his mouth, he still waved his hands and feet in joy.
Soon, the thugs were defeated and failed to get any advantage from Tan Zhenghong and Sun Erhu.
"Stop fighting!"
Suddenly a voice rang out, and the chaotic scene was immediately controlled.
When the thugs saw clearly who had come, they shouted at once: "Brothers, run, it’s Lord Qin!"
But the government officials were not there to eat for free; they captured all of the thugs and brought them back.
Qin Longyun surveyed the subdued men and spoke sternly, "You dare to commit such atrocities on my territory, do you have a death wish?"
The thugs all bowed their heads in silence, where had their earlier bravado gone?
All they wanted to do was curse their luck, how unlucky could they be to encounter the County Magistrate as soon as they stepped out the door?
Who was Lord Qin? Ever since Lord Qin took office, the people of Xuan Eagle Mountain Village had become much more restrained, and small households like theirs could only live with their tails between their legs.
Today was their end!
