Chapter Twenty-Five: Don't move! You're unlucky to run into us!
"Brother Ye, what are you doing?" Zhang Chenggong instinctively grabbed Fu Qingye.
"Go back to Bafang Village, she's in danger!"
Zhang Chenggong asked, puzzled, "You mean your sister-in-law?"
Zhang Chenggong had always unconditionally trusted Fu Qingye, but...
"The leadership has ordered that if we don't return on time, we will definitely be punished. If this delays important matters, we might even end up in court!"
Fu Qingye's brows furrowed with anxiety. "But I have to go back!"
Fu Qingye briefly recounted his encounter with the doctor and the ambulance, saying, "I already found Shen Yuanzhi and his companion's sudden arrival quite strange!"
"What you just said reminded me that Lu Zirou needs Xixi's kidney!"
Zhang Chenggong wasn't stupid; he immediately understood after hearing that.
"You suspect they're going to physically assault your sister-in-law? That's why you sent two vans full of people?"
Fu Qingye nodded, but the next second Zhang Chenggong grabbed him and hugged him tightly.
"Driver! Keep driving! Don't worry about him!"
Fu Qingye's forehead veins throbbed: "What are you doing?"
Zhang Chenggong hugged her tighter, his eyes filled with unwavering determination: "I won't let you have the chance to go to court! Your sister-in-law and the child are important, but in my eyes, you are more important!"
The passengers, who were either sleeping or chatting and laughing, were all drawn to this scene and began to discuss it amongst themselves.
Fu Qingye watched as the car, which had already stopped, started moving again. His eyes reddened, and he raised his arm to elbow Zhang Chenggong. Taking advantage of Zhang Chenggong's pain, he quickly ran to the car door and shouted, "Open the car door!"
Zhang Chenggong realized what was happening and grabbed Fu Qingye from behind, shouting, "Don't drive!"
The driver, exasperated by the back-and-forth between the two, snapped, "Are you getting off or not? Can't you two agree on something? Damn it, if you don't want the ride, I'll give you your money back and get the hell out of here!"
The driver opened the car door abruptly, saying, "I have so many passengers. If I wait until you two finish arguing before leaving, it'll be dark by then!"
Upon hearing this, the other passengers' gazes turned hostile, and complaints filled the air.
Just then, a group of men carrying iron bars and with tattered rags wrapped around their faces swaggered in.
"Don't move! Hand over all your valuables!"
Fu Qingye and Zhang Chenggong immediately distanced themselves, exchanged a glance, and then looked at the men who had been extremely arrogant since they got on the bus.
...
Rong Nanxi walked ahead, but not very fast.
Because she was waiting for Fu Qingchen.
She's not stupid. This place is remote. No matter how angry she is, she can't afford to disregard her own life.
Although Fu Qingchen wasn't as skilled as her brother, she had some training and could easily take on three ordinary men with her bare hands, making it much safer for her than walking alone.
So the two of them kept a distance of fifty meters between them, walking one in front of the other.
Soon, Rong Nanxi was almost at the gathering place of oxcarts in various towns and villages on the outskirts of the county.
Just turn one more corner and walk a few hundred meters to get there.
However, as soon as she turned the corner, Rong Nanxi made eye contact with a burly man next to her. Although the man had an incredibly honest smile on his face, Rong Nanxi's decades of experience made her immediately sense that something was wrong, and she turned to run away.
Fu Qingchen was only fifty meters behind me; I just needed to run past him to be safe.
However, just as Rong Nanxi turned her head, a skinny, monkey-like man suddenly emerged from the bushes beside her, holding a piece of cloth and covering Rong Nanxi's mouth from behind.
The moment the cloth was placed over her mouth, Rong Nanxi realized that it contained a sleeping potion.
Unfortunately, it's very low-grade!
Fortunately, the first thing she did after being reborn was to gather herbs, grind them into powder, and carry them with her in case of any emergencies.
Rong Nanxi tried desperately to break free in order to attract their attention.
He took a pill from the pocket at his waist, crushed it in his hand, and then pretended to be drugged, his body going limp.
As expected, the two relaxed their guard, and the skinny monkey who was covering Rong Nanxi's mouth let go of her, preparing to drag her away quickly.
They knew perfectly well that there was a man following behind this woman!
Just then, Rong Nanxi suddenly opened her eyes, forced herself to stand up, turned around and scattered all the powder in her hand.
Caught completely off guard, the two had their faces covered in dust.
In an instant, a sharp pain shot through my face.
The two of them screamed instinctively.
Because the three figures were hidden by the thick grass, Fu Qingchen, who was leisurely walking, suddenly realized something was wrong, his face darkened, and he quickly ran forward.
The two panicked the moment they heard footsteps.
If they were discovered by the cops in their current state, they would have no chance of escape!
"You bitch! I'll remember you! You just wait, I'll avenge you today!"
The skinny monkey's face hardened, and he turned and ran away.
Just then, Fu Qingchen arrived and heard these words. Seeing Rong Nanxi kneeling helplessly on the ground and witnessing the two fleeing in panic, he instantly guessed what had happened.
He was about to chase after the two men, take them to the police station, and eliminate them completely.
"stop!"
Rong Nanxi spoke weakly, her voice extremely feeble.
"You are no match for them!"
Fu Qingchen, who was originally going to show concern for Rong Nanxi, subconsciously retorted, "Why not! I learned it from my brother too!"
Rong Nanxi shook her head.
These two are no ordinary thugs; their methods are extremely dirty. Even if Fu Qingchen manages to defeat them, he will suffer a great loss.
Moreover, these two must be accomplices; if we rashly chase after them, we will either be killed or seriously injured!
Rong Nanxi knew this so well because in her previous life, she had seen the two men in the newspaper. They were serial killers who had killed many people.
The man who was as thin as a noodle was called Skinny Monkey, and the man with broad shoulders and a thick waist was called Mount Tai.
The skinny monkey excels at sneak attacks, while Mount Tai excels at hard-hitting blows.
The two are a perfect match. Not to mention Fu Qingchen, even Fu Qingye would have to be careful when he came.
In their previous lives, these two were captured in the provincial capital ten years later; unexpectedly, they are now in Xinchuan County.
It's a pity Fu Qingye left, otherwise I could have asked him to deal with these two.
After all, this is a murderer. If she didn't know, that would be one thing, but now that she does, Rong Nanxi can't just sit idly by. Given this gang's habit of killing, they'll probably strike again soon.
Thinking about this, Rong Nanxi felt a little regretful.
If she had known she could be reborn, she should have understood the whole case more clearly back then, so that she would have known their next target and could have taken precautions in advance.
Wait a minute, she suddenly remembered that before this gang was apprehended, the authorities had issued an announcement.
On August 15, 1974, this group murdered a young girl in Xinchuan County. The cruelty of their actions was appalling, and a reward of one million dollars was offered for their heads.
Based on the timeline, this group's next target is that girl!
As she pondered, Rong Nanxi's vision grew increasingly blurry, and finally, unable to hold on any longer, she collapsed.
