The children who had been running, jumping, and playing nearby also came over at this time.
"Big car! Look at the big car!"
When can we ride in a car?
The elderly man saw children playing around the car, and some even tried to touch it, so he quickly stopped them.
"Don't touch it, what if you break it?"
"You can only look, but you can't touch!" an old man told the children.
"Don't worry, we'll just look around, we won't touch anything!" one of the children said.
"If you break it, you couldn't afford to pay for it even if you sold yourself!"
Chen Dong and his two companions had already gone further and further away.
At first, they walked along the main road, but then they turned into a long alley.
There were many people on the main road, strolling and chatting in twos and threes.
The children chased and played, and everything seemed so quiet and peaceful.
After Wolong, Chen Dong, and Tiger turned into that quiet alley, there were fewer people around.
The light was much dimmer on this side of the alley.
The three walked among them, their footsteps echoing, making the silence seem even more profound.
This alley is several hundred meters long.
They had walked more than halfway down the alley and could see faint light filtering in from the exit.
However, the exit doesn't face the main road, but rather a slightly secluded road.
The three of them were walking carefully.
The Crouching Dragon was in front, Chen Dong was in the middle, and the Tiger was at the rear.
This arrangement was, of course, to protect Chen Dong in case of any unforeseen circumstances.
"Hehe, why are you taking this route? Do you have some plans?" Chen Dong asked with a smile.
"I just wanted to take a shortcut, and this place is relatively secluded," Wolong said.
Chen Dong smiled and shook his head. It seemed they really saw Yanjing as a den of dragons and tigers.
Just as they were talking and laughing, a person suddenly rushed in from the alley entrance.
Because the light was dim and we were far away, we couldn't see what he looked like.
However, he seemed to have some difficulty walking, walking with a limp and even appearing unsteady.
He ran frantically, looking back every now and then.
Upon seeing this suddenly appearing person, Wolong and Tiger adopted a defensive stance, protecting Chen Dong behind them and making him stand against the wall.
As they got closer, they realized that he was an old man with white hair and beard, wearing slightly worn clothes.
After he ran several dozen meters in this direction, several more people rushed into the alley.
They all looked fierce and menacing, and kept shouting, "Old man, stop right there!"
"stop!"
"If you run again, I'll cripple you!"
The old man ignored what the people behind him were saying and kept running.
Soon, he arrived in front of Chen Dong and the other two.
"Help!"
The old man exclaimed in surprise at the three of them.
Suddenly, the old man slumped toward Chen Dong with great speed.
Upon seeing this, Wolong swiftly took action.
He stretched out his arm to block the old man, and at the same time, he stumbled.
thump!
The old man was laid face up on the ground by him.
However, seeing how old the old man was, Wolong was worried that he might hit him too hard and kill him.
So the force wasn't very strong; in fact, when he fell, they even used their feet to brace him, giving him a "soft landing."
Even so, the old man was still completely disoriented from the fall.
However, Wolong did not let his guard down. Instead, he used his skills to control the old man, preventing him from making any other reactions.
"Cough cough..." The old man let out a painful cough.
However, this person could not stop him from asking the three for help.
Once his cough subsided a little, he cried out, "Help! Robbery!"
As he spoke, he struggled to gesture to the people behind him.
Soon, the five or six people came to Chen Dong and his two companions.
"Hey, this is ours!"
"Kids, are you trying to double-cross us?"
"Hand them over!"
The people on the other side were shouting and yelling all at once, their arrogance reaching its peak.
These people, with their appearance and clothing, looked like hooligans and were clearly not respectable people.
"You still want to rob this person!" Chen Dong said sternly. "With us here, you can forget about it."
"Robbery in broad daylight? Looks like you want to be eaten alive!" Wolong said.
These people all froze, their expressions momentarily blank.
At this moment, someone spoke up:
"This old bastard stole our money, and we're getting it back!"
"Yes, you shouldn't protect him!"
"You three, get out of here, there's nothing for you to do here!"
"The Axe Gang is on a mission, so get out of the way!"
"Get out of here right now, or I won't let you off!" Chen Dong said.
"Oh, so you're the Axe Gang?" Wolong asked.
"What Axe Gang or Brick Gang? Never heard of them!" Tiger said from the side.
At this point, Chen Dong realized that the old man who had been subdued by Wolong actually had little fighting ability and was practically on his deathbed.
During their brief encounter, Wolong had secretly conducted a full-body examination of the old man and discovered that he was not carrying any cold weapons.
"Sir, I'm sorry!" Wolong said as he helped the old man up.
Seeing that Wolong was distracted talking to the old man, the people opposite shouted and rushed over.
They also had more weapons in their hands; some carried axes, some carried daggers, and some swung iron chains.
Wolong turned around, handed the old man to Chen Dong, and rushed out to meet the thugs.
Tiger had already come to Chen Dong's side, standing protectively in front of him, adopting a defensive stance. "Boss, don't worry, these kinds of animals won't last long."
Suddenly, Wolong charged out like a tiger entering a room, instantly scattering his opponents.
During this time, Wolong reached out and kicked, and heard the clanging of metal objects hitting the ground, as well as cries of pain. Then, one by one, these people fell to the ground and could not get up.
At this moment, whether they had been shouting or wanted to back down, they all acted in unison and lay down on the ground.
"Thank you, thank you all!" The old man kept thanking Chen Dong, Wolong, and Tiger.
He kept saying, "If it weren't for you guys, I would have been in big trouble. They would have stolen all my money."
As they were talking, the old man suddenly cried out "Ouch!" because he had touched some part of his body.
His exclamation made Chen Dong, Wolong, and the other two tense up.
"What's wrong?" Wolong asked immediately.
Chen Dong was also a little worried and looked at the old man.
"My arm hurts a lot; I think I twisted it!"
"I'll take you to a nearby clinic for a check-up," Chen Dong said.
"No need, no need, I think it's just a minor injury. Thank you so much!" The old man said cautiously, his expression showing a hint of fear.
Because those thugs stood up again. Although they no longer had the fierce and menacing demeanor they had shown before, their words still revealed anger and arrogance.
