Chapter 120: No Eggs Can Stay Unbroken When the Nest Is Overturned
With the outcome of the handling, Hong Shuangyan’s case came to an end.
While fetching water, people in the community talked less about the matter and began to pay attention to what Wang Shijin would bring back from Yuancheng this time, or discuss the situation outside the community.
Xia Xiaoman quietly queued up to get water. She found that after the tornado, people in the community seemed to be anxious and restless due to the lack of supplies.
Just as I thought of this question, I suddenly heard a violent argument in front of me. After a while, they started fighting and several men were fighting each other.
The patrol team that was patrolling nearby heard the noise and was about to come over to stop the fight, when suddenly a burst of intense gong sounds rang through the sky. Everyone was attracted by the gong sounds, and the people fighting stopped and stared blankly in the direction of the sound.
Someone shouted, "Someone is here to cause trouble! Brothers and sisters! Grab your weapons and beat them!"
Before he finished speaking, people who were queuing for water dropped their buckets, pulled out the knives and sticks hidden on their bodies, and rushed to the gate of the community. Those who did not carry weapons with them quickly ran home, picked up their weapons, and went out, and also called out those who stayed at home to watch the house.
Xia Xiaoman thought about it, went home, put on a backpack, and followed the crowd to the entrance of the community.
The ones who attacked the community were the Rakshasa Gang, which had a long-standing grudge against Shuiyue Bay.
Before Shuiyuewan set up a stall in the black market, almost all the stalls in the black market had to pay protection fees to the Rakshasa Gang.
But ever since Shuiyue Bay came to set up stalls, not only did they fail to collect protection fees from Shuiyue Bay, but some stalls that frequently cooperated with Shuiyue Bay also failed to collect protection fees.
They tried to intercept Shuiyue Bay or attack Shuiyue Bay, but were beaten back.
Yesterday they saw more than a dozen vehicles leaving Shuiyue Bay, and guessed that Shuiyue Bay should be taking people to Yuancheng to transport seafood. They immediately gathered people and prepared to take over Shuiyue Bay in one fell swoop.
When Xia Xiaoman rushed to the gate of the community, the headlights on both sides of the gate had been turned on, and the people from Shuiyue Bay and the Luosha Gang were fighting fiercely.
She looked around and found that the third-floor balcony to the right of the door was the best observation point. She ran up immediately and only then did she see Old Man Luo standing there.
Old Man Luo glanced at her and asked, "What are you doing here at this time?"
Xia Xiaoman didn't say anything. She took out a crossbow from her bag, loaded it with arrows, and aimed at the crowd below. After looking for a while, she asked, "Old man, who's the leader on the opposite side?"
Old Man Luo looked at the crossbow in her hand and said, "The range of your crossbow is too short. I can't hit you."
Xia Xiaoman sighed, "Then tell me, which one can you hit?"
Old man Luo was not polite at all. He squinted his cloudy eyes and watched the battle carefully. In less than half a minute, he pointed at a skilled man not far away and said, "Do you see that man? The one wearing black clothes with white edges. Can you shoot him?"
Before he finished speaking, Xia Xiaoman had already pulled the trigger, and the arrow shot out and hit the man in black in the back.
Old Man Luo said with disdain: "Your aim is too bad. Why are you aiming at his back? Shoot him in the eyes!"
Xia Xiaoman was speechless. "The visibility is poor at night. It's good enough to be able to shoot him in the back."
"You are incompetent, so why are you making so many excuses? Get out of the way, I'll do it!" As he said that, Old Man Luo snatched the crossbow from her hand, aimed at the man in black, and after more than ten seconds, with a whoosh, the arrow accurately hit the man's eyes.
Xia Xiaoman was surprised, "Grandpa, you have a pretty good aim!"
Old man Luo looked very proud, "That's right, back then I used to shoot people with a revolver, your crossbow is nothing, it's all left over from me, an old man."
After saying that, he spread out his hands and said, "Give me the arrows. I'll show you some more of my skills, old man."
Xia Xiaoman hugged the bag tightly, "I only have 25 arrows, and I have used up two just now. If these 25 arrows are used up, I will have no arrows left to use."
When Old Man Luo heard this, he said proudly, "It's just arrows. Once you get rid of these people, I'll have the logistics department make you a hundred!"
Xia Xiaoman's eyes lit up. This was exactly what she was thinking. "Is it free?"
Old Man Luo glanced at her, saw through her little thoughts, and snorted proudly, "Do I still need your supplies?"
Xia Xiaoman smiled happily and took out the remaining arrows in the bag. "Here are the 23 arrows. Take your time. I'll go down and help you."
At the entrance of the community, everyone in Shuiyue Bay worked together to stop anyone who wanted to break in.
They all knew that when the nest is overturned, no eggs would be left unbroken. If they did not take action at this moment, but just hid in the back enjoying themselves, then once the gate of the community was breached, they would be the next to die.
Xia Xiaoman drew out his axe without hesitation, and moved flexibly among the crowd, swinging his axe to chop at those who tried to break into Shuiyue Bay. The axe drew sharp arcs in the air, colliding with the enemy's weapons and creating sparks.
The scene was in chaos. Some people in Shuiyue Bay were holding sticks, and some were waving machetes. Everyone rushed forward unwaveringly. Everyone fought with all their might to protect their homes, and no one retreated.
For a moment, the entrance of Shuiyue Bay was filled with shouts and sounds of fighting. Everyone was blood-thirsty, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
Xia Xiaoman repeatedly hacked and killed people, and his hair, face, and clothes were all covered in blood.
She was stabbed several times, but she was like a monster that felt no pain and kept repeating the actions of slashing and killing people.
After an unknown amount of time, someone suddenly shouted, "Luo Tianci is dead!"
"Everyone of the Luosha Gang, listen up! Luo Tianci is dead! If you lay down your weapons and leave now, we in Shuiyue Bay can spare your lives! If you continue to be stubborn, don't blame us for killing you all!"
When the members of the Rakshasa Gang heard that their leader was dead, they all stood there in a daze.
Only when they saw Luo Tianci’s body being stepped on by someone did they truly believe that their boss was dead.
The group of people stared at each other in bewilderment for a long time. Some of them saw the corpses and debris all over the ground, and then they became frightened and retreated with their weapons tightly grasped. Seeing that there was really no one to stop them from leaving, they immediately turned around and ran away.
Once one person escaped, the rest of the people no longer had the courage to continue fighting. In just a few minutes, all the remaining members of the Rakshasa Gang fled in panic.
Xia Xiaoman held the bloody axe and looked around cautiously, waiting to hear someone say, "Those who are not injured or slightly injured should stay to clean up the battlefield and carry the surviving companions on the ground into the community. Those who are seriously injured can still walk in by themselves, and those who can't walk can call for help."
Xia Xiaoman looked at her injuries. She was not seriously injured. Her arms were cut twice, and her back was hit by a stick a few times. Compared with other people, her injuries were minor.
Although she likes Shuiyue Bay, she does not have deep feelings for it and cannot risk her life for it.
Although she was killing like crazy just now, she was actually observing the fighting situation silently. She didn't go to the places where the fighting was fierce, and she avoided those who were strong in punches and kicks, and only attacked those who were weaker.
Even so, she was still injured. You can imagine how fierce the fight was.
