Chapter 116 Blocked a Knife

Wen Ning looked at the group's attire. Most of them were wearing gray floral shirts, paint-stained shorts, and ripped shoes that exposed their toes...

There were only a few slightly taller people standing among them. Although their clothes and shoes were dirty, it could be seen that they were stained deliberately. Their shoes were only stained with a little dust and there was no sign of damage.

And their eyes are also very different, too calm.

This kind of look should not be seen in the eyes of slum thugs, but in the eyes of certain "professionals".

Wen Ning whispered his discovery to Gu Boyan.

Gu Boyan naturally noticed it as well. He held Wen Ning's hand tightly and led her behind him, "Follow me closely later."

As soon as Wen Ning agreed, the gang of thugs rushed over roaring.

The bodyguards headed by Zhao Gang are basically retired special forces soldiers. Their skills are honed in real combat. They are top-notch in both fighting ability and ability to react in critical situations.

In comparison, this group of thugs relied entirely on their own strength and instincts to fight, so they were naturally no match for Zhao Gang and his men.

However, Gu Boyan's main purpose of this trip was to have fun. Although he brought a few more bodyguards with him for safety reasons, there were only six of them in total.

Compared with the thugs on the opposite side who were counted in groups, their number was too small and they could not be completely suppressed at all.

However, the strategy of Zhao Gang and others was also very clear. They did not want to compete with this group of thugs in this area, but to protect Gu Boyan and Wen Ning and leave quickly.

Although Wen Ning had never learned any self-defense skills, she had been beaten since she was a child, and had suffered a lot, so her ability to dodge attacks was naturally good. Moreover, she was not completely without any means of attack.

She certainly didn't know how to fight, and her strength was minimal compared to a man's, but Wen Ning casually grabbed a wooden clothesline from a nearby vendor.

When faced with the thugs who suddenly attacked her, she would use a clothes drying rack to poke their Sanyinjiao, Jianjing, or Zusanli acupoints...

Among them, Sanyinjiao acupoint is located on the inner side of the calf, the intersection of the three yin meridians of the foot. When hit, it will cause temporary numbness of the lower limbs. Excessive stimulation may also affect the function of the reproductive organs.

The Jianjing acupoint is located at the highest point of the shoulder, and a strike may cause temporary weakness in the arm. The Zusanli acupoint is located below the knee, and a strike may cause numbness in the lower limbs.

Wen Ning grew up knowing these acupoints. It is no exaggeration to say that he can find these acupoints with his eyes closed.

So several thugs who attacked Wen Ning were stabbed in the acupoints with the clothesline, causing their limbs to become paralyzed and losing their fighting ability.

Gu Boyan's eyes never left Wen Ning, so he naturally saw the little girl's fierce behavior.

Wen Ning is not a flower raised in a greenhouse, but more like a cactus growing in dry land. Even if the land is barren and there is little wind and rain, it can still grow with its own tenacious willpower.

But his pride vanished in an instant when he saw a gangster in black stabbing Wen Ning in the cheek with a dagger. He quickly grabbed Wen Ning's waist and with a sudden force, he hugged him behind him.

At this moment, the tip of the knife was heading straight for Wen Ning's face and stabbed his left shoulder fiercely.

Blood stained his white shirt.

Wen Ning's pupils suddenly shrank, and a cry of surprise pierced his throat, "A Yan!"

Gu Boyan's eyes were dark. He suddenly raised his hand and attacked the gangster in black clothes. He slashed his neck with a knife. The gangster's eyes rolled back and he fainted.

Gu Boyan glanced at his shoulder, then turned to Wen Ning and said, "I'm fine, just a minor injury. Come on, follow Zhao Gang, she'll take you out."

"No...no..." Wen Ning looked at the wound on Gu Boyan's shoulder. Her heart seemed to be tightly grasped by a pair of invisible hands, and the pain made her almost suffocate.

A blurry image of Wang Mengmeng in the sanatorium, naked and covered in bloody scars, appeared before my eyes in the dark night.

This time, Gu Boyan was seriously injured in order to protect her.

The hatred and pain hidden deep in her heart burst out. Wen Ning suddenly bit her lower lip hard. Suddenly, a bloody taste filled her mouth, and the intense pain forced her to wake up.

She didn't answer, but quickly pressed several acupoints on Gu Boyan's shoulders.

These acupoints can slightly relieve some shoulder bleeding.

Then she looked at the riot around her. Originally, she just had a hunch that these people were coming for her.

But just now, the gangster in black attacked with the intention of destroying her face, and his movements clearly showed that he had received professional training.

Now, Wen Ning was 100% sure that this group of people were coming for her!

But now, they had six bodyguards including Gu Boyan and her, while the thugs on the opposite side numbered about twenty or thirty people.

Among them, there are dozens of martial artists like the black-clad thug who just took the dagger.

Although Zhao Gang and his men have very good fighting skills, it is still extremely difficult to break out.

What's more, Gu Boyan's shoulder was injured, and now he only relied on a few acupuncture points to temporarily stop the bleeding. Once Gu Boyan's arm moved violently, he would bleed profusely. Gu Boyan must be treated as soon as possible!

Thinking of this, Wen Ning closed his eyes tightly, and when he opened them again, there was no hesitation in his eyes.

"Ayan, I'll wait for you to come find me!"

Gu Boyan was stunned and subconsciously reached out to grab Wen Ning, "Ningning!"

Wen Ning dodged the beating from several people and ran nimbly into another alley.

Suddenly, most of these thugs looked at Wen Ning, and then immediately chased after her.

Wen Ning glanced at the group of pursuers behind her, and a hint of understanding flashed in her eyes. This group of people were really coming for her!

At this moment, Gu Boyan's eyes immediately turned bloodshot when he saw this scene, and he was about to chase Wen Ning. Zhao Gang immediately stopped him, "Mr. Gu, you are injured. You must get treatment first. Miss Ningning is waiting for you to save her!"

Regarding Wen Ning's actions, the bodyguards were not stupid people. After a little thought, they figured out her motives.

They understand, and Gu Boyan understands even better.

But that’s Wen Ning!

Gu Boyan impulsively shook off Zhao Gang's hand and was about to rush over, but as soon as he took a step, he forced himself to calm down.

"Zhao Gang, Lin Hao, Zhang Meng, the three of you chase after them and protect Ningning!"

"Xu Sen, call the contact. Even if we have to turn the slums upside down, we have to rescue Ningning!"

Several bodyguards in black immediately obeyed the order.

At this time, Wen Ning was running and the one behind was chasing him.

Fortunately, there were vendors selling things on both sides of the alley, and the density of people coming and going was so high that it was almost crowded.

Wen Ning has a slim and light body, which gives him a great advantage in moving among the crowd compared to those big and strong thugs.

However, Wen Ning looked back at the thugs who were chasing her relentlessly. She had a huge disadvantage, which was her physical strength.

She could only hold on for a dozen minutes at most before collapsing from exhaustion, and it would be hard to predict what would happen then.

So, she had to find a way to get rid of these people within these ten minutes.

Looking around, she suddenly saw a small piece of gray rag. She was slightly startled, and then ran towards the alley without hesitation.

Following the gray rag, he ran through several alleys and finally hid in a dilapidated house.

Soon, the thugs also chased out the door.

"Where are the people? Where have they gone?"

"Just now I saw him running in this direction, how come he's gone now?"

"She's a girl, but she can actually run fast. And with so many complicated roads in the slums, she ran so fast that even we locals couldn't catch up!"

"She's a foreigner and isn't familiar with the roads in our slums. Look carefully and find her as soon as possible!"

"This girl is so beautiful! I didn't expect to get such a good job this time. Not only can I defile a beautiful woman for free, but I can also get a lot of money!"

"Stop daydreaming and find this woman first. If you let her get away, you won't get the remaining balance!"

"Stop talking, let's chase her separately. I don't believe a young girl like her who's unfamiliar with the place can escape from our grasp!"

"There are three forks in the alley ahead. Our men will split up and chase her. We must catch her!"

Listening to the discussion coming from outside the door, Wen Ning hid under a cellar, and his heart became heavier and heavier!

There were continuous sounds of footsteps and curses coming from outside, and some people entered the house to check, but none of them discovered that there was a cellar under the house.

They just searched everywhere on the ground and found nothing, so they left again!

As the outside gradually quieted down, Wen Ning finally turned his head to look at the owner of the gray cloth, a dark and thin little boy.

Wen Ning opened his mouth and said, "Thank you."

The little boy suddenly held out his hand to her and yelled at Wen Ning fiercely, "I saved you once, one piece of bread, no, two pieces! Not less!"

This little boy was the one Wen Ning met in front of a trash can not long ago, who exchanged a piece of bread for a photo opportunity!

Wen Ning looked at him and nodded seriously, making a three-sign with his hand, "I can give you three too."

When the little boy heard about the three pieces of bread, his eyes lit up and he said hurriedly, "Keep your word and don't go back on your word, or I'll hand you over to Simon and the others!"

Simon.

Hearing this name, Wen Ning's eyes darkened and he asked, "Who is Brother Simon?"

The little boy said with disdain, "You don't even know Brother Simon, how did you offend him?"

Wen Ning didn't lie and said honestly, "I didn't mess with him. I must have messed with someone else. That person bribed your so-called Brother Simon to deal with me."

The little boy's eyes lit up even more. "That man must be very rich!"

Simon has a terrible reputation in the slums!

They burn, kill, loot, bully the weak, are greedy and selfish, and do all kinds of evil.

If you want to ask him to take action, you will definitely pay a heavy price!

The little boy rolled his eyes and said, "If I hand you over to that man, then all the money will be mine, and I will have plenty of bread to eat every day!"

As he said this, the little boy swallowed hard!

Wen Ning looked at him with a bitter and distressed feeling in his heart. It was so sad that the biggest dream of a child growing up in a slum was to have a full meal.

But now was clearly not the time for her to be so charitable. Wen Ning quickly composed himself and said, "The best-case scenario is that you get the money, but Simon snatches it away the next second!"

"Of course, the greater possibility is that you will be caught by Simon as soon as you go out, because you just helped me escape from their pursuit. They will probably take out their anger on you, and then you may never have the chance to eat bread again."

Children who grow up in slums always mature earlier.

The little boy is a native of the slums. He has been struggling here for five years and is used to seeing suspicion and betrayal between people. He is also used to seeing people kill without hesitation for a little dispute over interests.

So, he actually knew in his heart that what Wen Ning said might be true, and he couldn't help but feel a little dejected.

At this moment, Wen Ning suddenly raised his hand and touched his head, saying softly, "Besides, you don't trust Simon and the person who hired him, do you?"

Although the little boy is very clever, he has not yet learned to lie.

After hearing Wen Ning speak out all his thoughts, he no longer wanted to hide anything.

"Yes, Simon will definitely not give me money. He will only steal my money."

"Those superiors wouldn't actually give me money, they would just humiliate me severely."

And Wen Ning was the only person he had ever met who promised to feed him in a fair trade. He didn't tease him or humiliate him, but actually gave him a big piece of bread!

So, he wanted to eat another piece of bread as delicious as the one he just had, and he also believed in the girl in front of him!

Wen Ning smiled and said, "I mean what I said. Not only will I give you bread, but if you want, I can also take you out of the slums."

The little boy's eyes lit up, "Really!"

Wen Ning nodded affirmatively, "Really."

It is not easy to take the little boy away from Country A, but it is possible to take him out of the slums, find him an adoptive family outside, or send him to an orphanage.

In this way, at least the little boy can have enough food every day and grow up well.

The little boy was excited for a while, then stretched out his hand to ask Wen Ning for bread.

Fortunately, Wen Ning had been carrying his backpack with him, but instead of three pieces of bread, there was only one left, but fortunately, there were still some candies and other things in it.

Wen Ning gave all the snacks to the little boy, and then told him that he would take the remaining two pieces of bread and take him out until someone came to rescue him.

The little boy asked as he wolfed down his food, "Simon is very powerful in the slums. He has spies everywhere. You'll be caught if you go out. How can your friends get you out?"

Wen Ning's eyes were filled with tenderness. "I believe him, he will come."

Just then, there was a sudden loud bang.

The dilapidated wooden door was kicked open from the outside.

Simon led a group of people in, looked around, and finally his eyes fell on the place covered with broken wood boards.
