Chapter 73 Broken Finger
"Ah!! Xu Zhiyi!! That's your breast!!"
When everyone in the Xu family saw that Xu Zhiyi actually used a knife to chop off two fingers of Old Mrs. Xu, they were so angry that their eyes almost popped out!
Xu Zhiyi frowned unhappily when she saw that Old Lady Xu had only broken two fingers. She had just gone for her entire hand.
Old Mrs. Xu covered her severed finger with blood gushing out, rolling on the ground in agony, her heart trembling with pain. Although only two fingers were broken, she was the only one who knew that this money-loser wanted to chop off her entire hand, but she was quick to react and dodged, so the knife was deflected!
Xu Zhiyi glanced coldly at the Xu family members: "Haha! I haven't settled accounts with you yet!"
Then he stared at Xu Xiaoju and said, "When you betrayed me, did you think I wouldn't be able to live to settle the score with you?"
Hearing this, Xu Xiaoju was so scared that she quickly waved her hands: "No, no, I was just scared at the time and said that nonsense, I didn't mean it"
Li pulled Xu Xiaoju behind her and looked at Xu Zhiyi with forced calmness: "I...we were just trying to make do at the time. No...we didn't really betray you. We were just pointing blindly. Who would have thought that you were really hiding there? It was just an accident!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Zhiyi glanced coldly at everyone in the Xu family and turned away!
Everyone in the Xu family was also surprised to see Xu Zhiyi letting them go so easily. Normally, they could not get any benefits from her. They had planned that she would not give up easily today, but who knew that she would leave? ?
The village chief and his men seized a total of 230 taels of silver from dozens of bandits.
Thirty-two villagers died, all of whom died in a duel with bandits. Each of their families was compensated with six taels of silver, totaling one hundred and ninety-two taels of silver. The remaining thirty-eight taels were distributed to the injured villagers.
Xu Xiaoju looked around and saw that Xu Zhiyi had really left! She felt relieved, but at the same time, she couldn't help but look down on him. She was just a money-loser, so she wouldn't dare to do anything to him!
Unexpectedly, a sharp object suddenly pressed against his neck, and Xu Zhiyi's cold voice rang in his ears: "Are you looking for me?"
When Xu Xiaoju heard this, she got goosebumps all over and was shaking with fear. Just as she was about to open her mouth and scream, Xu Zhiyi pressed the sharp object against her neck, increasing the force.
"Haha! Go ahead and yell! Let's see which one comes faster, the one you yell at or the bamboo tip I sharpened for you. I wonder if this bamboo tip can pierce your neck. How about I give it a try? If you're lucky, I'll let you go, how about that?"
Xu Xiaoju was so scared that she peed herself. She was shaking. "No, no, no, woo! I was wrong! I won't dare to do it again! Please, please let me go! After all, we are sisters, right?"
"Who calls us your sister? Do you have any shame?" Upon hearing this, Xu Zhiyi increased the strength of his hands.
"We are not sisters. I will never say such nonsense again. Really!!"
Xu Zhiyi: "But, I don't want to let you go! You know, I just killed someone to save my life! The last bandit was stabbed directly through the stomach by me, and he died with his eyes open."
ah! ! !
Xu Xiaoju's psychological defenses completely collapsed at this time! She was so scared that she peed herself.
Xu Zhiyi smelled the smell of urine and held his breath in disgust. Then he pinched Xu Xiaoju's neck and used the tip of the bamboo to carve two words "cheap" on both sides of her forehead.
Just when Xu Xiaoju was about to die with her eyes rolled back, Xu Zhiyi finally let go of her neck.
"Cough cough..." Xu Xiaoju didn't have time to feel the pain on her forehead. She knelt on the ground and started coughing and gasping for breath.
It was not until the wound on his forehead with the words carved on it started bleeding and flowed onto his hand that he screamed in fear.
"ah!!!"
Xu Zhiyi kicked her down, then stepped on her hand with his foot, grabbed the sharp bamboo stick, and used all his strength to pierce her palm directly.
"ah!!!"
The surrounding villagers heard Xu Xiaoju's cry and stopped what they were doing to look at Xu Zhiyi. Seeing that Xu Xiaoju seemed injured, some wanted to stop her but were stopped by the head of the village:
"Don't worry about it. Zhiyi knows what to do."
Xu Zhiyi felt everyone's gaze and whispered, "You should be thankful that there are so many villagers around, otherwise... I wouldn't dare to kill you!"
Xu Xiaoju was so frightened when she heard that that she didn't dare to breathe for a moment. She rolled over in pain only after the person walked away. The pain in her palms and forehead made her scream miserably!
Li on the other side heard Xu Xiaoju's screams and was so scared that she hurried towards Xu Xiaoju. When she saw the bloody words on her forehead and her hand with blood flowing, she was so scared that she felt dizzy.
"Who did it? Oh! My little Ju! Which bitch is so cruel? This is going to ruin your life! What will a woman with a disfigured face do in the future?"
Old Mrs. Xu came over and saw Xu Xiaoju's forehead. She was so angry that her chest hurt. She was so angry that her beautiful granddaughter was ruined like this!
This is more painful to her than killing her granddaughter! !
How can she find a good family in the future when she looks like this! ! Her betrothal gifts are so expensive! ! In her condition, it will be difficult for her to marry even if she asks for no betrothal gifts!
When Xu Xiaoju heard what Li said, she raised her trembling hand and touched her forehead. When she touched the wound, she knew that the possibility of recovery was slim, and she burst into tears in despair.
"Ah!! Mom! My appearance is ruined!! My life is over! Wuuwu!! And my hand!!"
"Mom, how am I going to live like this? I might as well just die! Wuuwu!!"
Xu Lei, who was standing by, looked at his daughter who was crying to death. He was filled with anger and asked through gritted teeth, "Who is it? Tell me, and I will avenge you. I will make that bitch pay back a thousandfold."
After hearing this, Xu Xiaoju paused for a moment, then covered her face and continued crying.
Seeing her like this, Li pulled Xu Xiaoju with a look of disappointment: "Tell me? Your father will report it to you."
"It's...it's Xu Zhiyi!"
"What? How dare she?"
Old Lady Xu glanced at her bandaged hand that was holding back the blood, and said viciously, "What else is she afraid of? She even cut off the fingers of an old woman like me, and she still doesn't dare to hurt Xiaoju's hand and ruin her appearance?"
Hearing this, Xu Lei clenched his fists, bulged his eyes and said, "I'll go find him. I don't believe that I can't handle a little girl."
Old Man Xu looked at the angry Xu Lei and shouted, "Stop, that money-loser is so ruthless now. If anything happens to you, will our family still be able to survive? We are fleeing from famine now. If you get hurt, will we still have to serve you?"
Then he patted Xu Lei on the shoulder and whispered, "Besides, she is just a daughter, not a son who can carry on the family line. Why would you risk your life for a daughter?"
After saying that, he glanced at his granddaughter Xu Xiaoju, frowned, shook his head slightly, and sighed.
Alas! What a pity! I had originally planned to find a good family for her so that I could get more betrothal gifts. But now, she is a money-loser!
Xu Zhiyi and the head of the village led the villagers to dig a pit and bury the 32 villagers who died in a desperate fight with the bandits, as well as the 80 villagers who were killed by the bandits while fleeing, so that they could rest in peace here.
After the tomb was built, everyone knelt down and worshiped before going down the mountain and gathering together.
Xu Zhiyi saw Shen Wuyou planning to carry Shen Changan on his back, and hurried over to stop him: "I'll carry you, you have injuries, Doctor Li just helped you stop the bleeding completely, don't open the wound again later"
Shen Wuyou heard this and was about to say that he could do it, but when he saw Xu Zhiyi glaring at him angrily, he finally swallowed his words!
After saying that, he squatted in front of Shen Changan. Shen Wuyou and Su Shi hurried to help. Shen Changan was not shy at this time, knowing that there was nothing to be shy about in this situation!
The village chief planned to kill the two horses at the foot of the mountain and distribute them to everyone as food reserve.
When Old Mrs. Xu heard the arrangement made by the head of the village, her eyes suddenly lit up. Although the two horses were a little thin, they would still produce at least 700 to 800 kilograms of meat after being slaughtered. Now many villagers have sacrificed their lives, so wouldn't it be a lot for them?
