On the brink of the apocalypse, Zuo Ling is brought back to her distant relatives' Ding family and safely survives countless disasters through the chaos.
However, on the verge of death, s...
The scorpion leader regained some of his courage and, with his neck stiff, said:
"We have evidence. If it wasn't you, then who was it?"
Ning Qiang was so angry he laughed. He scoffed, "Fine, where's your evidence? Let me see. If it's not, hmph, this isn't over!"
The leader of the scorpion team got up, clutching his cheek, and pointed to a pile of corpses in the open space. "Those are them."
They started fighting right away, and none of Ning Qiang, Ning Xiaoqi, or Ning Dage noticed the row of corpses in front of the door.
They noticed and assumed that the Ning family guards were killed when the scorpion arrived, because the bodies were wearing the Ning family guards' uniforms.
Several people stepped forward to identify the body. Ning Da Ge pointed at one of them and said, "It was Tang Ren Village who did it, not us."
The person he was referring to used to be from the Chinese village, but later moved to Chinatown.
Then, he pointed out several people who had transferred from the Chinese village.
The Ning family guards wore uniforms of military green, and the fabric that Zuo Ling hid in the cave happened to be exactly the same.
Guo Qi and He Xiao conspired that if they went to rob, they would inevitably suffer casualties. They decided to take advantage of the situation to swindle the Ning family, firstly to divert the trouble to the east, and secondly to vent their own pent-up anger.
They hit it off immediately and got to work, having Lin Sao and a group of skillful women make more than thirty sets of uniforms for the Ning family guards.
The plan was well-thought-out and succeeded, but the results were somewhat lacking.
Ning Qiang is a carefully cultivated candidate for the next generation of family head by the Ning family. He is not a brute with no brains. He is not so hot-headed as to insist on fighting to the death with the other party.
He sneered repeatedly. "What a fine Chinatown, what a fine Pei Nansheng... Hmm? No, that's not right."
Given the Pei siblings' ability to kill without leaving a trace, they wouldn't have suffered so many casualties; it must have been Guo Qi and He Xiao's scheme.
Ha! Using the Ning family as a shield, you're dreaming!
He grabbed the leader of the scorpion team and said, "They're from Chinatown, not my Chinese village, understand?"
The leader of the scorpion team was confused; he couldn't tell the difference between the Chinese village and the Chinatown.
Although he couldn't tell the difference, he believed that Ning Qiang wasn't lying. Faced with overwhelming force, Ning Qiang had no reason to lie.
He patted his cheek and said, "Although it was a misunderstanding, the losses you caused to the Ning family are real. Come on, let's talk about compensation."
Poison Scorpion controls most of the black market for medicines. Although the Ning family doesn't lack medicines for the time being, who would complain about having too much money?
Besides, it was only a small branch of the Poisonous Scorpion that came. Ning Qiang wouldn't be foolish enough to offend the local tyrants to death. Leaving them to deal with Tangren Village was just right.
As the saying goes, there are no permanent enemies, only permanent interests.
If the price is right, everything is negotiable.
The leader of the Poison Scorpion team thought he was going to die today, but unexpectedly, things took a turn for the better. Not only did he escape, but he also made a friend who had superpowers.
They launched into a tirade against Chinatown for ruining their friendship:
“That wretched Chinatown, I won’t let them get away with it. Qiang, oh my friend, I apologize for my recklessness today.”
Ning Qiang spoke gently, saying, "There's an old Chinese saying, 'No fight, no friendship.' Come on, let's drink to our friendship."
Cheers!
"..."
Making friends is one thing, but when it comes to compensation, not a penny should be spared.
Ning Qiang only saw off the Scorpion Team Leader with a friendly smile after his men delivered a large batch of medicine to the Chinese village.
Watching the scorpion leader's car disappear into the distance, Ning Qiang's eyes remained indifferent. He didn't tell the scorpion leader that there were more troublesome superhumans in Tangren Village than him.
The methods used were so bizarre that he still hasn't figured out a way to solve them.
Let the scorpion scout the way. Who dies? Who lives? ...It doesn't matter!
