Chapter 137 What a good target!
After driving for some distance, Xia Xiaoman saw from the rearview mirror that there were more than a dozen cars chasing them from far behind.
The dozen or so cars were very far away from them, but they were driving very fast. At first, she could only vaguely see a few black dots in the rearview mirror, but in the blink of an eye, she could even see what kind of car the other party was driving.
He drove so fast and easily avoided the potholes and gravel on the road, which showed that he was very familiar with the area.
Xia Xiaoman didn't dare to follow the convoy slowly anymore, so he accelerated and overtook three cars. The three cars left behind cursed and tried to overtake, but the body parts were not good enough, and the small truck could not run faster than the SUV, so they could only rage helplessly behind.
Soon, the three cars were blocked by someone. The other party also wanted to stop Xia Xiaoman's car, but Xia Xiaoman was driving too fast. They chased for nearly half an hour, but every time they were about to catch up, they would be thrown away, so they had no choice but to give up.
When the official convoy saw that they had gotten rid of the people behind them who wanted to rob them, they found a place to stop and rest.
Xia Xiaoman finished the unfinished lunch box, closed his eyes and rested for more than ten minutes, waited for the convoy to start again, and immediately started the car to catch up.
After driving for more than two hours, one of the cars in the convoy had a flat tire. The owner stopped the car on the side of the road and waved to the cars behind for help, but no one responded.
When Xia Xiaoman passed by, the other party might have thought that this was the last car, and if he didn't stop it, he would have to sleep outdoors today, so he stood in the middle of the road and forcibly stopped the car.
Xia Xiaoman glanced at the other person. It was a very unfamiliar face, probably not from Shuiyue Bay, so she stepped on the accelerator and rushed over.
Seeing that Xia Xiaoman didn't show any sign of stopping the car, the other party was frightened and quickly hid to the side. When he got up from the ground, the SUV had already driven a long way away, and he immediately pointed at the SUV and cursed in anger.
Xia Xiaoman glanced at the rearview mirror and continued driving calmly.
…
After driving for 15 hours without any danger, we finally arrived in Yancheng.
After entering Yancheng, Xia Xiaoman immediately left the team, found a deserted place to store the car, and then asked someone where the market of Yancheng was.
The person who was asked for directions was a kind-faced old lady. She pointed ahead and talked for a long time but couldn't explain clearly where the market was.
Just when Xia Xiaoman's patience ran out, the old lady cried out, "Girl, if you want me to show you the way, I really can't explain it clearly. How about this, I'll take you there! And we can buy some things at the market by the way."
Xia Xiaoman narrowed her eyes. The main purpose of coming to Yancheng this time was to collect coal. She didn't want to cause any trouble. "No need, I'll go find it myself!" After that, she turned and left.
"Hey, girl, wait a minute!" The old lady grabbed Xia Xiaoman's wrist tightly, "The market in Yancheng is hard to find, and it's so late now. It's easy for a little girl like you to run around. I'd better take you there!"
"The market closes at 12 o'clock in the evening. It's past 11 o'clock now. If you look for it by yourself, even if you find it, it will probably be closed. Come, follow me this way, grandma will take you there." The old lady didn't say anything and grabbed Xia Xiaoman's wrist and left.
Xia Xiao's face had turned cold, but she did not refuse. Since the other party wanted to take her away so much, she would go over and take a look to see what kind of good place it was that made the old woman insist on taking her there.
Following the old woman, she turned left and right into a dim alley. Just as she was about to take out the axe from her waist, the old woman suddenly turned around and showed a weird smile. The next second, the old woman took out a spray bottle and sprayed Xia Xiaoman.
Just as the old woman was about to press the spray can, Xia Xiaoman had already pulled out an axe and hit the old woman's hand holding the spray can with the axe.
The old woman screamed and let go of the spray bottle. Xia Xiaoman was quick to catch the spray bottle and put it in his pocket.
If she guessed correctly, the thing in the spray bottle should be a drug like ether. This thing is a good thing, and you may not be able to get it even if you have money.
After putting away the spray bottle, Xia Xiaoman raised her leg and kicked the old woman away. The old woman was old and had osteoporosis. After being kicked down, she couldn't get up no matter how hard she tried.
Xia Xiaoman walked over with an axe, ready to kill the old woman. At this moment, the door at the innermost of the alley opened and a strong man walked out.
The old woman saw the strong man and shouted at the top of her voice: "Ajie! Quick, catch her!"
Upon hearing this, the sturdy man stared at Xia Xiaoman with sharp eyes and rushed over.
Xia Xiaoman had no intention of running away or dodging. Rushing head-on, what a good target! She clenched the axe and swung it straight out, then put her hands behind her waist, pulled out two fruit knives and swung them out again.
The strong man dodged the axe but failed to dodge the two fruit knives. He screamed and staggered to the ground.
Xia Xiaoman did not stop, but took out a machete and ran to the sturdy man to finish him off.
The sturdy man widened his eyes in disbelief. He was killed instantly after just a face-to-face encounter, before he even touched the other person. Feeling unwilling, the sturdy man's eyes went dark and he stopped breathing.
When the old woman saw Xia Xiaoman defeat the strong man in just a few minutes, she was so scared that she huddled into a ball and tried to minimize her presence.
Xia Xiaoman picked up the axe, pulled out the two fruit knives stuck in the man's body, walked slowly to the old woman, and said gently: "Grandma, didn't you say you would take me to the market? Why did you bring me to the alley?"
The old woman was trembling all over, her face looked ugly as if she was going to faint at any moment. She begged for mercy with trembling lips, "Little aunt, I was blind and calculated the wrong person. You, you are not injured, can you, can you let me go..."
Xia Xiaoman smiled and said softly, "Grandma, what nonsense are you talking about? I was counting on you to take me to the market, how could I let you go?"
"I, I'll take you to the market, can you let me go?" The old woman said with a little expectation in her eyes.
Xia Xiaoman chuckled, then suddenly turned cold and stabbed the man's shoulder with a knife, "Are you qualified to bargain with me? Tell me the truth, where is the market in Yancheng!"
The old woman screamed, and after a while, she quickly said honestly: "It's in Jiaqing Square! The market is in Jiaqing Square! Walk out of this alley and walk along the mainland for more than 20 minutes to find the market!"
Xia Xiaoman snorted coldly: "Wouldn't it be better if you behaved earlier? Why did you have to take a knife?"
"Let me ask you another question. Where can I buy coal in Yancheng, or where can I mine coal?"
