Chapter 41: I will protect your family
I'm afraid they no longer have a chance.
"As long as you elect me as the village chief, I will fulfill all my promises."
Xiang Wu was making plans in his mind, thinking about the wonderful life that would follow, and his eyebrows raised.
"Sister Xiang Yu, what do you think he wants to do..." Xiang Cheng stood beside Xiang Yu, looking at Xiang Wu with disgust in his eyes.
"I don't know," Xiang Yu made several assumptions in his mind, but they were just those few.
The two chatted as if no one was around, and the election soon came to an end.
Although a few people also wanted to fight for it, in the end Xiang Wu's promise attracted them more, and Xiang Wu was successfully elected as the village chief.
"Thank you for your support. I will definitely not let you down..."
Xiang Wu said a lot of high-sounding words, but because the temperature was too low, everyone went home quickly.
With excitement in his heart, Xiang Wu felt much warmer.
Without the burden on his shoulders, the old village chief felt relaxed for a moment. He smacked the tobacco-free welding pipe in his mouth and felt as if he could taste it.
"Sister Xiang Yu, you have to be careful. Xiang Wu is not a good person..." Xiang Cheng seemed to have thought of something, and there was a hint of disgust in his tone when he mentioned Xiang Wu.
Xiang Yu nodded in agreement and watched Xiang Cheng's back as he left. Ever since his father was injured, Xiang Cheng seemed to have carried all the burdens of the family on his shoulders.
He acts like a little adult all day long.
It was nearing evening and the sky had already darkened. Except for a little light reflected by the snow on the ground, everything was pitch black.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, the rusty iron door was knocked regularly.
Xiang Yu put on a loose cotton coat over his pajamas and said, "What are you waiting for? Open the door quickly. I am the village chief..."
Xiang Wu's voice came from outside the door.
Xiang Yu stood behind the iron gate, with his pistol tucked behind his waist, listening carefully to the noise outside the door. Judging from the voices, there were about six people.
Bang, bang, bang…
The knocks on the door became more urgent, "Open the door, I know you are in there."
Xiang Yu opened the iron gate, and the people behind Xiang Wu immediately turned their eyes to Xiang Yu's face.
Xiang Yu didn't say anything, but looked straight at Xiang Wu to see what he wanted to do.
In the dark night, no one could see the expression on Xiang Yu's face.
"Xiang Yu, I have established a new rule for our village. Every family in the village must give me five kilograms of rice."
"If you don't have five catties, three catties will do. If you don't have rice, sweet potatoes and potatoes will do. As long as it's food, as long as you give three or five catties, it's fine."
Xiang Yu immediately looked at him as if he were a fool. She originally thought that Xiang Wu would be patient and persuasive, but she didn't expect that he wanted to be a local tyrant as soon as he arrived.
"No..." She would not give Xiang Wu even a grain of rice if he asked for food. It was obvious that Xiang Wu was looking for death.
"How can there be none? It's not easy for you to do this. How about this? You are alone again. I know you women usually have small appetites."
"I'll make the decision. You only need to give two kilograms. How about that? Don't say I don't take care of you. Other villagers give five or three kilograms."
His tone seemed as if he was really considering Xiang Yu, and he even hoped that Xiang Yu would hand over the food out of gratitude.
The people behind him took a step forward. Xiang Yu was not afraid at all, but Xiang Wu stretched out his hand to stop them.
"Think about it carefully. Almost all the villagers have given it. If you don't give it, I won't be able to explain it to them."
Xiang Wu looked at Xiang Yu's lively eyes in the night, with a lustful look in his eyes.
None of the brothers in the village have found wives, and they usually don’t do anything serious when they get together. Now they are finally standing up for themselves.
He knew Xiang Yu, the only student in the village who was admitted to an Ivy League school, and he wanted to play with this woman alone.
"I don't."
Seeing Xiang Yu's firm attitude, Xiang Wu just smiled faintly and waved his hand for everyone to follow him and leave.
"zc..." Xiang Yu looked at the food that several people were dragging in their hands. Originally, everyone was almost starving, but he was swaggering around the village to loot food.
Do you think you've lived too long?
But Xiang Wu really did a lot of trouble afterwards. The next day, he used the food he had collected last night to hire a group of young and strong men in the village.
He asked them to go to the city to find food and promised to take good care of their families during that time.
Those people believed it, and since they were running out of food at home, they packed their bags and set out the next day.
After all the young and middle-aged men in the village left, Xiang Wu and his companions completely let themselves go.
They first broke into Widow Wang's house. Not only did they revel there every night, but they also targeted the unmarried young women in her family.
But there are also very few that are voluntary, and the days are changing day by day, slowly moving towards memory.
Xiang Yu looked at the heavy snow outside the house, as if he had returned to his previous life.
At that time, there was a man like Xiang Wu in the boys' dormitory of the school. He would come to the girls' dormitory every day to check on them as if he was selecting a concubine.
If he saw someone he liked, he would take them away to play with them. If he was not satisfied with the person, he would kill them with a knife after playing with them.
The corridors were filled with rotting and smelly corpses, and body fluids flowed throughout the dormitory hallway. Those days seemed like hell on earth.
While Xiang Yu was still lost in his memories, the bell tied to the iron gate rang. Xiang Yu instantly came back to his senses, got up from the bed, and picked up the axe at hand.
Knock knock knock, there was a faint sound from the iron gate. Xiang Yu listened carefully for a while and heard a familiar voice outside the door calling his name.
"Sister Xiang Yu..., Sister Xiang Yu..."
It was Xiang Cheng. Xiang Yu carefully opened the door. Xiang Cheng was still panting at this time. When he saw Xiang Yu coming out, he panted and said, "Sister Xiang Yu, Xiang Wu wanted to attack you. I heard it secretly."
"When?" Xiang Yu stroked the handle of the knife in his hand.
"Tonight, they are now next door to my house, and Sister Hua next door has been raped by them..." Xiang Cheng's eyes were filled with fear.
"Sister Xiang Yu, I'm going back first. My mother and sister are still at home. Please be careful," Xiang Cheng knew Xiang Yu's skills.
He went hunting in the mountains with Xiang Yu several times, and now Xiang Yu is the most powerful person in his heart.
When he returned home, Xiang Cheng saw two figures hugging each other in the living room. They were his mother and sister. A lot of things had happened in the village recently.
Even though my sister is young, she is sensible.
"Mom, I'm so scared. Uncle Xiang Wu wanted to hug me today," the little girl said with fear in her eyes. Listening to the crying of Sister Ahua next door, her body trembled even more violently.
Unfortunately, most of the young and middle-aged people in the village have gone to the city to find supplies, and they will not come back within three to five days.
And the last time Xiang Cheng and his father went to the city, her husband's leg was lame when he came back. The city must be more dangerous than the village.
Whether those people can come back safely is another matter.
