Chapter 59 Encountering a Thief on the Road
Zhang San's eyes widened. "Damn it! I've only been out for a short while, and Liu Dameng has already caused such a big mess for me. Why would he pick on that female devil when there are so many people he could pick on?"
Yes, Xia Xing'er's image in Zhang San's mind now is that of a female devil.
The young official wanted to say something when he saw Zhang San running away in a hurry.
Wang Xiaoer noticed that the young official still had something to say, so he walked up to him and asked, "Don't you have anything else to say?"
The official told him everything in detail, and Wang Xiaoer ordered, "Go find a doctor quickly."
When Zhang San rushed to the backyard, he was also shocked by the scene in front of him.
Liu Dameng's eyes were bleeding, and he was running around like a madman, yelling and cursing: "Bitch, I'm going to kill you, bitch, I'm going to make you live a life worse than death, ah..."
There were people watching the fun all around, and no one dared to step forward.
Liu Dameng had gone mad, so Zhang San had no choice but to step forward and knock him unconscious.
He suppressed his anger and asked, "Who can tell me what is going on?"
Everyone else saw how ruthless Xia Xing'er was, and no one dared to speak. They all lowered their heads.
Xia Chengwen felt that he was back on track, so he jumped out, pointed at Xia Xing'er, and said something that was favorable to him: "Officer, it was her, it was her, she was the one who whipped Officer Liu blind."
They are definitely finished now. They are so bold as to hit the police.
Zhang San glanced at Xia Xing'er. To be honest, after what happened yesterday, he was a little afraid of Xia Xing'er.
"Miss Xia, what's going on?"
He still asked it despite himself, but there was less of a questioning tone in his voice.
I really don't know what's wrong with that idiot Liu Dameng to provoke this evil spirit.
Fortunately, this person did not kill him and spared his life, otherwise it would have been difficult.
Xia Xing'er didn't think there was anything wrong in hitting Liu Dameng's eyes. She felt that she had gone too lightly. If the other party was not the officer escorting them, she would not have wasted her time talking to him.
"As an official, he knew the law but broke it, abused lynching, forced women into prostitution, accepted bribes, and conspired with others to murder my family."
"He threatened me with the lives of my three nephews to commit myself to him."
"Master Zhang, you said he shouldn't have been beaten, but you didn't hit him too hard!"
Xia Xing'er looked at Zhang San with a smile and asked word by word.
The onlookers were stunned when they heard this. They originally thought that the family was doomed this time, but unexpectedly there was a sudden turn of events.
Xia Chengwen immediately quit: "You're talking nonsense! Officer Liu is doing this for me, the victim. He will punish you if you don't obey his orders. And you even injured Officer Liu!"
He looked at Zhang San tremblingly: "Officer, don't listen to her one-sided words."
Zhang San looked at him and asked, "You are the victim. I wonder what you want Liu Dameng to do for you?"
He has worked with Liu Dameng for many years and has some understanding of his preferences and way of doing things.
He already believed 80% of what Xia Xing'er said.
In the past, he had raped many women in the exile team. After all, the road of exile was long, and it was normal to have needs. As long as it was consensual, he didn't bother to care.
But this time, it seems that he has met a tough opponent, and the beating is definitely in vain.
Before Xia Chengwen could answer, Xia Chengsheng mocked him, "This guy said his son ate the chicken butt my grandson gave him yesterday and is now in a coma with a fever. He suspects we drugged him and wants us to compensate him with 1,000 taels of silver!"
Xia Xing'er pointed at Xia Chengwen and said, "I saw with my own eyes that he gave that Officer Liu fifty taels of silver. Then, Officer Liu didn't listen to our explanation and convicted us. He even refused to let us hire a doctor. The compensation became two thousand taels of silver, and we had to pay for it with a donkey cart!"
Zhang San was really speechless.
These people are so bored that they have to pick on this family.
Wang Xiaoer also arrived at the backyard and said, "I've sent someone to get a doctor. He should be here soon."
When Xia Chengwen heard that he had to call a doctor, his face turned pale.
In less than a moment, the minor official called the only doctor in the town.
At Zhang San's signal, the doctor went over to examine Xia Qingping in Wang's arms. After all, Wang still felt sorry for her son, so she didn't say anything and just held Xia Qingping in her arms and let the doctor examine her.
"This is caused by catching a cold last night, it has nothing to do with what I ate!"
"In this case, the child must have been frozen all night last night, otherwise it wouldn't be so serious. How can you be parents?"
I heard that the doctor's diagnosis was almost the same as Xia Xinger's.
The look everyone gave Xia Chengwen's family was indescribable!
At the previous post station, they saw Wang buying cotton-padded clothes and quilts, but she left her own son frozen for a whole night just to extort money. Tsk tsk, no one can be more ruthless than this family!
The doctor also had children at home and sympathized with the children's situation. He also knew their identities: "I'll prescribe a few doses of medicine. You can take them on the way. But I can't guarantee whether it will work or if there will be any sequelae!"
Hearing the doctor say there would be sequelae, Wang became anxious: "Doctor, you have a way, right? Can you save my son? I beg you, doctor, this is my only son!"
The doctor sighed and said, "There's nothing I can do to help. If it were just a common cold, I'd prescribe some medicine and it would definitely cure it. This child has been delayed for too long!"
No one had a chance to hold Wang's child and cry, and the doctor followed Zhang San and others to see Liu Dameng.
"It's all my fault, it's my fault, my son, it's my fault!"
Wang thought of Xia Chengwen, the culprit who caused all this. Seeing him standing there as if nothing had happened and not cared about his son at all from beginning to end, the resentment in her heart was magnified infinitely!
She rushed to Xia Chengwen like crazy, grabbed his arm and shook it, shouting: "It's all your fault, it's all your fault, it's you who came up with the bad idea, it's you who insisted on using my son to extort money, it's all your fault, it's all your fault!"
She pointed at the people watching the excitement in the yard and said, "And you, every one of you is an accomplice! If anything happens to my son, we will all be dead. I won't let any of you go!"
Following Wang's revelations, everyone was shocked. They had originally thought it was an accident, but they didn't expect it to be intentional.
In order to plot against the Xia family, he let his own son freeze for a whole night!
I really don’t know what Xia Chengwen is thinking?
The Xia Chengwen that the Xia family knew was not this kind of person. What made him become like this? Or, they never really understood this person.
Xia Chengsheng had never expected that his cousin would actually use his own son as a pretext to frame their family.
I truly saw how unpredictable human hearts are!
Xia Chengwen received malicious looks from all directions, and now he just wanted to find a hole to crawl into.
He had never been so embarrassed in his life.
He slapped Wang in the face and said, "You ignorant woman, what are you talking about?"
Well, this slap directly stimulated the already crazy Wang Shi, making her even crazier, and she said even more recklessly: "I'm talking nonsense, wasn't it you and your old immortal mother who came up with this idea? I don't agree, you two can beat me together."
As she spoke, she rolled up her sleeves, revealing bruises that were obviously caused by pinching.
"Let everyone see, these wounds on my arms were caused by you and your old mother. In the middle of the night, while you were asleep, I secretly covered my son with a blanket, and you tied me up, took away the blanket, and even stripped my son's cotton jacket."
"You two are not human beings at all, not human beings, my son?"
Wang cried heart-wrenchingly, with regret and hatred mixed in her heart!
Zhang Sanzhe returned and heard Wang's crazy talk. He looked at Xia Chengwen coldly: "What else do you have to say now?"
He now wanted to kill Xia Chengwen, the troublemaker, but he still asked the Xia family's opinion.
"What do you want to do with Xia Chengwen?"
Xia Chengsheng said: "Then let him pay the money. Doesn't he want money?"
Others had no objections: "We all listen to Dad!"
Seeing that they all agreed, Zhang San felt relieved. As long as these evil spirits agreed, it was fine. He began to give orders: "The mastermind will be flogged twenty times, and each accomplice will be flogged ten times. They must also pay Xia Chengsheng one hundred taels of silver as compensation. Execute immediately."
As soon as he finished speaking, the police escorted Xia Chengwen and his family out.
When Xia Chengwen heard that he was going to be whipped twenty times, his legs went weak and he said in defense: "Officer, spare me, this idea wasn't mine. Yes, this idea wasn't mine. It was my mother. It was my mother who told me to do this!"
Xia Chengwen's mother, Mrs. Hu, was filled with hatred and anger when she heard that her eldest son had something wrong and pushed her out.
"Sir, the idea wasn't mine or my son's, it was Wang. It was Wang who gave us the idea!"
She wanted Wang to admit all the sins. After all, her daughter-in-law was an outsider, so it didn't matter even if she died. As long as she had money, she could marry a virgin to her son in the place of exile, and then she could have as many grandchildren as she wanted!
Wang now hates the mother and daughter to death. They just harmed her son and now they want to harm her.
"Sir, even if I were to go crazy, I wouldn't use my own son as bait. The injuries on my body are evidence, my evidence against them."
"I'm just a daughter-in-law who married into the family. They've always treated me as an outsider. How could they possibly listen to me?"
After saying this, Wang smiled bitterly, which made people feel distressed.
Zhang San didn't want to listen to their bickering either, so he ordered directly: "Xia Chengwen and Mrs. Hu will be treated as the masterminds and receive twenty lashes each, while Mrs. Wang will be treated as an accomplice and receive ten lashes."
They could only grit their teeth and admit that Zhang San was clearly biased towards the Xia family.
Soon, the yard was filled with shouts from Xia Chengwen's family.
The Xia family ate breakfast while listening to the screams of Xia Chengwen's family.
The system reminded Xia Xing'er in her mind: "Host, Wang's family has already hated your entire family and is waiting for an opportunity to retaliate. Host and your family must be careful."
Xia Xing'er said to the system indifferently, "It's okay. Hate them if you want. I'm not going to let them go anyway."
Xia Chengsheng showed mercy to their family, but Xia Xing'er would not. If anyone dared to plot against her, he would have to pay the price.
She, Xia Xing'er, lived her life again, and killed gods if she met one, and killed Buddhas if she met one.
Ye Qingyu stared at Helian Zhi intently and asked word by word, "Did you know that Xia Xing'er is a martial artist?"
Helian Zhi: "I don't know. Today is the first time I saw her take action. I always thought she was just a girl in the boudoir."
Why didn't she tell him that she knew martial arts? If she had told him, he wouldn't have...
Helian Zhi didn't even think about it. He hadn't even asked Xia Xing'er, so how could he let her rush to tell him: I know martial arts, and my skills are not low.
Liu Dameng injured his eyes and it was impossible for him to continue on his journey. He could only stay in the county clinic and let them take care of him.
Liu Dameng also woke up, but everything in front of him was pitch black and he could not see anything.
The sting in his eyes reminded him who had made him like this.
His only thought now was to kill that bitch and avenge himself.
The officer who was watching him said, "Do you know how those men in black died yesterday?"
Liu Dameng subconsciously asked, "How did he die?"
"It was Xia Xing'er from the Xia family and her brother Xia Qingfeng who killed them!"
"Didn't you see how they killed the men in black yesterday? One sword for each, and the men in black had no chance to fight back. The fact that you're still alive is because they showed mercy. Why did you pick on that family when there are so many people you could mess with? Didn't you see that they gave in to the leader?" The petty official said with a look of disappointment.
"The leader has already taken them on their way. You can't chase them even if you want to. You'd better take good care of your injuries."
Liu Dameng knew that this was the truth, but he still couldn't swallow it.
That bitch destroyed his eyes and turned him into a cripple. How could he not hate her?
At this time, Xia Xing'er and the others had already left the post station half an hour ago.
This time they actually encountered robbers who blocked their way and robbed them.
It seems wrong no matter how you think about it, thieves are robbing the exile team in broad daylight.
Xia Xing'er looked at the thieves blocking the road, then looked at the police.
Zhang San was on full alert and seemed to be unaware of the situation. Wang Xiaoer's eyes flickered and it seemed that he knew these thieves. It was possible that these thieves were in partnership with him. This person was the spy of that person.
Xia Xing'er, Xia Chengsheng and his son looked at each other, and it seemed that they all discovered something wrong with these thieves.
Xia Xing'er thought she should find an opportunity to get rid of Wang Xiaoer.
It's really annoying to have someone staring at me every day.
I just don’t know whether these thieves want to kill them, Xuanyuan Yi, or even kill them all together.
The leading thief, a middle-aged man with a face full of flesh and fierce eyes, sat astride a skinny horse, holding a large knife that gleamed with cold light, with a malicious smile on the corner of his mouth.
He looked around the exile group, and finally his eyes fell on Xia Xing'er and the women. His tone was filled with unquestionable arrogance: "Leave the women behind, and all your money! Be smart, or you will suffer physical pain!"
Before he finished speaking, the women in the team showed fear on their faces and moved closer to their families. Xia Xing'er's face was stern, and her eyes flashed with a determination that should not be underestimated.
She moved her feet calmly, approaching her father Xia Chengsheng and brothers, her fingers gently stroking the dagger she took out from the space, thinking in her mind which one to start with.
The leading thief suddenly changed the subject, his voice low and menacing, like the most dangerous venomous snake in the dark night, "Who is the Prince of Zhennan? Please ask the prince and his family to stay, we must treat them well!"
As soon as these words came out, all the younger brothers behind him burst into laughter.
The expressions of the officers became complicated, some were surprised, some were alert, while the people in the exile team were shocked and panicked.
Xia Xing'er's heart trembled, and her eyes quickly swept across the team, finally landing on Xuanyuan Yi, who was always taciturn and had an extraordinary temperament.
It seems that his injuries have all healed, but he still pretends to be seriously injured, just to show off to others.
Xuanyuan Yi lay in the carriage, opened the curtain, and tilted his head slightly. His deep eyes seemed to be able to see into people's hearts. His eyes met with the thief leader's in the air, silently competing with each other.
