Chapter 142 Gunshots



"You're the one with a tail!"

Sujin was furious.

He didn't care at all about Su Tie's disappearance; to him, this younger brother was just a competitor vying for various family resources.

Moreover, Su Tong and Su Tie were close in age and formed a tightly knit clique within the Su family, and he had long harbored resentment towards them.

At that moment, he cursed at Jiang Aiguo, then grabbed Su Tong by the collar, "Fourth brother, I've never held a grudge against you because you're a patient. What, you sickly guy, are you going to hit me?"

Before Guo Tianya revealed it, none of the educated youth knew that Su Tong had a heart condition.

After all, he was beaten half to death by the militia, but he didn't seem to have any heart problems.

Does he really have a heart condition?!

Su Tong smiled contemptuously: "Second Brother, you jinx, how can you talk such nonsense? When did I ever have a heart condition?!"

Enraged, Su Jin threw a punch at Su Tong's cheek.

Su Tong stretched out his arm to block.

Su Jin felt as if his fist had hit a steel pipe, and the excruciating pain shot from his knuckles all the way to the top of his head. He jumped up involuntarily: "My hand!"

Su Tong didn't feel anything, except for a slight pain in his forearm for a moment.

The Marrow Cleansing Soup had already transformed him; otherwise, he would have died from his injuries long ago when he was surrounded and beaten by five or six militiamen.

Guo Tianya jumped in front of Su Tong: "Comrade Su Tong! How could you hit your own brother?"

Shen Heping clicked his tongue twice:

"Such a young girl, and she's already blind?"

Everyone saw that Su Jin hit someone, and Su Tong blocked it, but what you saw was different from everyone else's!

"Guo, you're not blinded by Su Jin's bad luck, are you?"

Su Jin didn't recognize Shen Heping, but felt that he looked familiar.

He had no idea what kind of friends his sickly fourth brother associated with; in his eyes, they must be a bunch of rabble.

So he rushed to Shen Heping.

My hands hurt, but my feet are still usable.

He raised his foot and kicked Shen Heping in the stomach.

This was the first time Shen Heping had ever been in a fight, except for when Su Ruyi broke his hand.

He was kicked and completely stunned, standing there at a loss for what to do.

It took him a while to clench his fist, and he didn't know where to strike back.

"Bang!!!"

Just then, a deafening gunshot rang out behind Su Jin.

Everyone gasped and squatted down on the ground.

Su Jin was the same; he squatted down and turned around, looking as if he was trying hard to wipe his butt, which was quite comical.

Behind him, a stern-faced soldier strode forward; it was General Shen's bodyguard, Xiao Zhao.

Xiao Zhao's gun was still pointed at the sky: "As soon as I arrived, I saw someone beating up a young educated youth who had been sent to the countryside, and they wouldn't listen to any warnings?"

As he spoke, he walked toward the trembling Su Jin and kicked him in the head: "Comrade, are you going to continue your violent rampage?"

Su Jin immediately prostrated himself on the ground: "Don't shoot! I didn't commit any violence! I didn't! I'm also an educated youth!"

Xiao Zhao stepped on his head and looked at Shen Heping: "Heping, get a rope."

Shen Heping quickly went to get the hemp rope, but Jiang Aiguo had already taken out a thin hemp rope that was a full meter long from his pocket and handed it to him.

This kind of thin hemp rope is used to tie up grain sacks, and it's also very useful for tying people up—it's strong and doesn't easily slip off.

Shen Heping was stunned: "Why...why do you carry this thing with you all the time?!"

Jiang Aiguo smiled but remained silent.

In less than three seconds, Xiao Zhao tied Su Jin's hands behind his back.

Then, he led Su Jin by the leash like a dog, looked at Su Ruyi in the crowd, and smiled slightly: "Su Zhiqing, General Shen sent me to pick you up to treat his illness."

The crowd erupted in uproar.

Xiao Zhao continued, "I'll also need to trouble you to bring all the necessary supplies for the treatment."

Su Ruyi turned around and went back into the house, where she retrieved a new needle case from her spatial storage.

Her needle kits never need to be sterilized; as soon as one kit is taken away, a new one will appear on the shelf.

Su Ruyi put her needle case away and locked the door.

Shulan rushed over: "Ruyi, don't worry, I'll bring Dr. Jin's meal over in a bit!"

Su Ruyi thanked her.

At this moment, Xiao Zhao was instructing Shen Heping: "Heping, the general said you should come along too. He said your father brought you something and left it with him."

The voice was loud, clearly meant for everyone to hear.

The educated youth were unaware of the relationship between Shen Heping and General Shen, and at this moment, the way they looked at Shen Heping changed.

It turns out that this guard Zhao wasn't standing up for the innocent educated youth who was being beaten, but rather for Shen Heping, who was clearly a member of the Shen family!

It seems that Su Jin is in deep trouble!

Jiang Aiguo rushed forward and pulled Xiao Zhao aside, adding, "Comrade, this Comrade Su Jin was originally a bad element who was trying to avoid going to the countryside, and now he's assaulting people! The people at the educated youth settlement unanimously demand that he be severely punished!"

Hu Zhenbo chimed in from behind, "Yes! We demand a severe punishment!"

Xiao Zhao nodded seriously: "Understood."

Su Jin looked back at the two of them in disbelief. He couldn't understand how he had offended them!

Just as Su Ruyi was about to leave with them, she met Su Tong's worried gaze, and returned a firm "Don't worry" look.

Guard Zhao drove the car, and Shen Heping insisted that Su Ruyi sit in the passenger seat while he sat in the back, holding the rope binding Su Jin.

Su Jin didn't dare to speak the whole way.

That gunshot terrified him.

What Zhao, the guard, said to Shen Heping made him wish he could turn back time to before he kicked Shen Heping.

What kind of unyielding person have I messed with?

Thinking of this, his hateful gaze shot at Su Ruyi again—it's all because of this jinx!

Su Ruyi felt the malicious gaze behind her, turned around and gave Su Jin a cold look.

Su Jin felt a chill run down his spine.

What a look it was! Su Jin felt as if Su Ruyi was looking at a rotting corpse.

Xiao Zhao noticed their subtle movements and asked Shen Heping with a smile, "Heping, do you know what happened to the nanny who hit your hand when you were eleven years old?"

Shen Heping shook his head blankly: "I only remember her tapping my hand with a small bamboo stick, and then she disappeared."

Xiao Zhao said, word by word: "She was sent to wash salt, and she did it for three years. Later, it is said that the bones in her fingers were exposed."

Shen Heping asked, puzzled, "Aren't salt washed by machines nowadays?"

Xiao Zhao said casually, "Yes, she was in the last batch of workers."

Upon hearing this, Su Jin felt a chill run down his spine. With a fawning smile, he said, "I'm so sorry, Chen Zhiqing! Look at the mess this has made! It seems you know my sixth sister, we're all friends, this is all a misunderstanding!"

No one responded.

Su Jin opened his mouth several more times, but couldn't say anything more.

As he got closer and closer to the army camp, his body began to tremble uncontrollably.
