At daybreak, the truck finally arrived outside Fengtian City. Lian Xiaomin parked the car in an empty forest and planned to take a rest.
I took a mat and found a big tree to lie down and sleep for a while.
Sun Xuefeng and Lu Guanjie picked up some firewood, made a fire and cooked some porridge.
As a result, before he could even eat the porridge, an unexpected incident occurred.
There was a sound of hurried footsteps not far away. About fifty meters away, a young man was seen running towards him. His light-colored shirt had several large holes in it and was stained with blood in several places.
This man seemed to have injuries on his shoulders and arms. When he staggered, his legs and feet were not very flexible, but he still ran forward desperately for his life.
From the noise behind him, it seemed that a group of people were chasing him, and there seemed to be a large number of them. It didn't look like a fight between just a few people, but more like the village militia was out to arrest people.
Faintly, some shouts could be heard, as if saying that the man should be surrounded and the thief who stole the production team's grain must not be allowed to escape.
Lian Xiaomin had just fallen asleep when he sat up in a daze, leaning on one hand, looking dazed.
Over there, Lu Guanjie and Sun Xuefeng stopped eating and stood up alertly. They walked more than ten steps in the direction of the fleeing man and hid behind a big tree to observe.
Sun Xuefeng thought, isn't this a sudden disaster? You were caught stealing, don't come to us, it's too immoral, you will definitely be implicated.
Lian Xiaomin did not follow immediately. She thought that if she released her mental power, she would be able to observe the situation over there more clearly. If that didn't work, she would be prepared to drive away.
Although I have the documents, they can only help me get through checkpoints on the road. If they conduct a strict inspection, what are you doing cooking in the woods on the edge of the city? I can't explain it.
Once people start to suspect you, your identity will not stand up to scrutiny.
She focused her attention on the young man running ahead, who was probably seventeen or eighteen years old at most, or perhaps even younger.
He looks quite handsome. One can even say that if he weren't in such a disheveled state, he would be a very good-looking and handsome boy.
I thought to myself, you can’t judge a person by his appearance, is this handsome boy really a thief? Is that possible?
Looking at the people chasing after me, there are about twenty or thirty of them, which is quite a lot!
They should be militia guards and some villagers, some holding sticks and some holding ropes.
The leader was a man of about 26 or 27 years old. Wow, he was not short, probably over 1.85 meters tall.
Wearing a military green hurdle vest, look at his pectoral muscles and biceps, they are really well developed.
In those years of food and clothing shortages, it was rare for a man to grow up to be strong and fat.
Looking at other people, they are all skinny, so this person stands out particularly.
But looking at his face, he looks really ugly!
A garlic nose, sow eyes, a big fork in the mouth, and a greasy face with many pockmarks... Oh, it's unbearable to look at.
If I look at her again, she will probably vomit out her breakfast that she hasn't even eaten yet.
This group of people came with a fierce momentum and full of anger on their faces, it seemed that the matter was not trivial.
They were about to catch up with the young man in front of them, but at this moment, another person suddenly ran out from behind a big rock nearby, grabbed the young man, grabbed his arm and continued running.
"Hold on, little brother! Come with me!"
The young man was startled and ran away while saying, "Brother, didn't I tell you to take Xiuyun and hide? Why did you come to save me? Fan Degui framed me just to catch my younger sister and you! Alas!"
He seemed extremely anxious, but at this point, there was nothing he could do.
Lian Xiaomin took a closer look and found that this "thief's" brother looked so familiar.
Isn’t he the soldier who was fished out of the flood by himself when Lin River flooded a few days ago?
A total of two people were rescued, one of whom was the squad leader. What was his name?
That’s right, his name is Wang Duo! That’s the person.
He and another comrade were lucky enough to enter the space while they were asleep and take a "visit".
In fact, generally, those who were taken into her space for a "tour" would later become the wolves in the back mountain, and she would make a buffet for them. However, these two soldiers were the only ones who could even return the same way, panting and alive and kicking.
Who made them heroes? They risked their lives to save the villagers and were washed away by the flood. We must do our best to save them.
Lian Xiaomin was a little confused. Looking back, it seemed that another person named Qian Daxi did mention that they would be demobilized soon. She thought they would die together in the flood...
It seems that he has retired and returned home. Something must have happened to him.
Lian Xiaomin stood up and walked behind Lu Guanjie and the others.
Sun Xuefeng turned around and asked, "Should we drive away from here first? They can't catch up with us anyway."
Lian Xiaomin shook her head: "No, one of the people being chased is someone I know. We need to see what the situation is."
Sun Xuefeng was a little surprised, but he nodded immediately without saying anything more.
Lian Xiaomin wore a mask and a baseball cap, with the brim of the hat deliberately pulled down low.
I saw that the villagers had surrounded the two brothers.
Someone had actually seen a truck parked in front of the right, but due to urgent matters, they were focused on catching someone and did not immediately go over to ask.
The three of them were hiding in the grass behind a big tree and could see clearly what was happening over there.
Lian Xiaomin could see more clearly using her mental power without having to stretch her neck.
The tall and strong man with a particularly ugly appearance took the lead and directed everyone to surround the two men, shouting that the murderer and the thief must not be allowed to run away again!
However, Wang Duo was obviously a martial artist. After all, he had been a soldier and a squad leader at that. He was very skilled in fighting and once he started fighting, no one could stand up to him for a while.
There were two men holding sticks, but their sticks were kicked away. Wang Duo picked up one and used it as a weapon, swinging it with great force, sweeping away a large area.
At this time, the sturdy man became anxious. He pulled out a long dagger from his waist and moved forward, gesturing that it was approaching. It seemed that he was determined.
Seven or eight people covered their arms and legs in defeat, and at his signal, they all moved away.
"Wang Duo, you still dare to come back? You have killed my cousin, just wait for the bullet! If you don't hand over Wang Xiuyun, are you waiting for your own sister to eat melon cakes? What's wrong with Xiuyun marrying me? At least I can protect her from being implicated by you brothers!"
"You two, one is a murderer, and the other stole the production team's wheat. You should be sentenced to labor reform. Wang Xiuyun is lucky enough to marry me. If I beg my father for mercy, maybe Wang Jia can be exempted from the charge of being a thief. You..."
The injured young man spat at him.
"Bah! Shut up! Why don't you take a piss and look in the mirror? How dare you go after my little sister? Let me tell you, even if we two brothers die, we will never let you ruin Xiuyun!"
