“If you force a woman against her will, you are committing a crime and you will be shot!
Get out of my way!
If you let me go now, I won’t sue you.” Lu Manyue advised.
"Impossible. I have already kowtowed to you, so the ceremony is complete. According to the rules of our South District, you are now a member of my family," said the man.
Seeing that reasoning was useless, Lu Manyue could only continue to shout for help.
Men are not afraid either.
Lu Manyue's voice was broken from shouting, but no one came, and she felt a little desperate.
"You, let me go. My bones are fragile. If you pull me like this, my hands will be torn off." Lu Manyue changed her tactics and used her beauty to seduce the man.
Her eyes were filled with tears and she looked so pitiful.
The man lowered his head, looked at the purple marks on her wrist, and muttered, "I didn't use too much force."
"Ah, my hand, my hand hurts so much that it seems to break." Lu Manyue squeezed out two tears, looking as if she was in great pain.
"If it's torn off, you'll have to spend money to repair it." The man grunted and let go of his hand, then began to untie his belt, intending to tie Lu Manyue up with the belt and lead her away.
Lu Manyue took advantage of the moment when he lowered his head and kicked him hard between the legs.
Maybe I gained some experience from playing against Yang Chengshi at that time.
Lu Manyue calculated the angle of her kick just right and hit the man hard in the crotch.
He let out a cry, arched his body and screamed, his face turning pale and painful in an instant.
His belt was already untied. Lu Manyue suppressed her nausea and pulled his pants down, pulling them directly down to his legs, then kicked him again.
While he was in so much pain that he couldn't straighten his back, he turned around and ran.
The man tried to chase after her, but his trouser legs got tangled around his feet and he fell forward every time he took a step.
He was in pain and angry, howling and shouting at Lu Manyue: "You ungrateful woman, I will kill you when I catch you!"
Lu Manyue didn't dare to look back, and rushed to the alley entrance with holding her breath.
The distance of more than ten meters was reached in a flash.
As a result, as soon as I rushed to the entrance of the alley, I saw the guy selling braised meat staring at the man rolling in the alley in amazement.
"You, you're in big trouble. This guy has a relative who is a second-rate guy in the South District. When I first came here, I saw
They, they are coming this way." The young man looked back in panic.
Lu Manyue heard someone yelling over there, "Why is Liangzi screaming so miserably? Something must have happened. Hurry, hurry, run faster."
The two people who shared the same suffering looked at each other.
The young man suddenly gritted his teeth and said to Lu Manyue: "You, you come with me, let's hide in my house."
Lu Manyue hesitated for a moment, decided to take a gamble, and followed the young man around, turning left and right, and came to a dilapidated courtyard.
The gate to the courtyard is mottled and the paint has peeled off so much that it is impossible to tell what its original color was.
The steps leading to the door were covered with moss.
The young man stood on tiptoe and asked Lu Manyue to look carefully and follow him.
"We can't leave footprints here." The young man put on a homemade straw mat on the soles of his shoes, tiptoed in, and then dug out a pair of similar straw mats from the man-high weeds and threw them to Lu Manyue.
Lu Manyue entered the yard cautiously.
After more than ten minutes, the young man brought her to a dilapidated stage.
The stage is very high, and standing on it one can overlook most of the outer courtyard.
When he got here, the young man finally breathed a sigh of relief, sat down, and panted heavily.
"Wait until there's no one searching outside, then you can go. I've led them around more than ten streets, I'm so tired, I want to lie down for a while." As the young man spoke, he lay down on the ground, closed his eyes, and fell asleep in a short while.
The stage can see the front yard and the other side of the gate. If you squint your eyes, you can even see people running around in the alley outside.
The sky gradually darkened and the alley became pitch black.
But the sound of searching footsteps never stopped.
Some people saw this dilapidated yard and wanted to come in to look for it, but when they lit torches, they could not find any footprints at all.
The grass in the yard is more than a person's height, and there are many snakes in summer. If you are not careful, you will get bitten.
If you encounter an ordinary rat snake, it will be okay, you will just feel some pain. But if you are unlucky and encounter a poisonous snake, you will lose your life.
The man hesitated.
"It was Qiangzi's cousin who was beaten, not my cousin who was kicked in the balls. You can just look for him. It's not worth it to be bitten to death by a snake."
People holding torches and lanterns staggered away.
Only then did Lu Manyue let go of her tightly clenched hands.
The young man woke up, stretched, and sat up while yawning.
"We are so unlucky today. I spent more than a month collecting materials to make the cart, and all the pork offal and meat that I worked so hard to braise are gone.
As for you, you were spotted by the most unsavory Liangzi in the South District, and you have no home to return to. This is simply an unexpected disaster."
Lu Manyue didn't say anything. She was a little worried about Zhu Yan.
The South District is so chaotic. If Zhu Yan got lost here, she would most likely have been caught and locked up.
It's been two days, and I don't know what kind of suffering she has gone through.
She felt a chill in her heart and her frail body trembled uncontrollably.
Zhu Yan, hold on, everyone is here to find you, you must stay alive no matter what.
"Are you cold? I don't have any extra clothes. I only have this set of clothes. I take them off and wash them every night. After washing, I put them in the pot to dry and wear them again the next day.
Otherwise, I can find a piece of clothing for you to wear." The young man said apologetically.
"It's okay, but I guess I'll have to trouble you tonight." Lu Manyue sighed.
