Chapter 67 Chapter 67 Attack
Jiang Xi understood how much Liu Daqiang cared about Xiufen. "Brother Liu, don't get angry. I'm just giving you a heads up. If she said that to me, she must have also said that to others who wanted to help your business."
Liu Daqiang then realized he'd lost his temper. "Sorry, I'm not mad at you. I'm mad at those nagging people. You have no idea how much Xiufen has suffered over the years because of those nagging people. I really don't understand why those people can't just live a good life, but have to gossip about others behind their backs. Do they feel happy just because they see others having a hard time?"
Jiang Xi thought that some people were just like that, harming others and not benefiting themselves, and couldn't bear to see others live well. But saying this now would undoubtedly add fuel to the fire. Jiang Xi could only say, "Anyway, Brother Liu, you're at home taking care of the family. No one dares to bully you."
Xiufen also said, "Boss, I'm not afraid with you around. We'll work hard and raise chickens well, and our lives will get better and better. Let them say whatever they want."
Liu Daqiang sighed. This was the only way for now. Jiang Xi had a plan in mind, but he had too little capital at the moment, so he couldn't bring it up with Liu Daqiang. He had to put it on hold for the time being.
Although there were some minor incidents, Liu Daqiang and his wife were in a good mood after receiving the new order. When Jiang Xi left, the couple were already preparing to hatch dozens more chicks.
It was getting dark when Jiang Xi left Liu Daqiang's house. Xie Xiaoju and Wu Youli had already closed their stall and went back a long time ago.
Living in the village is so inconvenient. I can only run back and forth every day and rush home no matter what.
Jiang Xi also set off quickly. The county town was still more than an hour's journey from the village, so Jiang Xi didn't dare to delay. However, it got dark almost instantly, so Jiang Xi could only try to walk faster.
The mountain road was pitch black at night, without even a light. Jiang Xi could only use the moonlight to see what was going on. The road in the mountains was difficult to walk on and it was easy to miss a step.
There were mountains and trees all around, not even a single person in sight. From time to time, there was a strong wind, making the trees make strange noises.
Jiang Xi concentrated and walked forward, when he suddenly heard a rustling sound behind him. Jiang Xi was startled and his heart almost stopped.
She didn't dare look back and ran forward faster.
The rustling sound behind her did not disappear. After a while, the rustling sound turned into footsteps. The footsteps became heavier and heavier. Jiang Xi's hair stood on end. She felt the footsteps were getting closer and closer to her.
Jiang Xi sensed a dangerous aura and began to run forward desperately, but unexpectedly a hand grabbed her shoulder. Jiang Xi quickly turned around and saw a man's distorted face.
In a flash, Jiang Xi used the faint light to see the man's appearance, but she didn't recognize him.
Jiang Xi shouted, "Who are you! What do you want to do! Let me go!"
The man didn't let go. He had a wretched appearance, and a greasy, evil tone in his eyes. He sucked his teeth and spoke in an extremely wretched manner: "Little girl, why are you here so late at night? Are you looking for a lover?"
Jiang Xi ignored him and tried to break free and leave quickly.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Xi only made a move, and was grabbed by the wretched man in front of her without explanation: "Little girl, I'm talking to you, why don't you answer? Are you angry because you can't wait for your lover?"
Jiang Xi slapped the man's hand and said, "Be respectful! My uncle will be here to pick me up soon. Get out of here if you don't want to be beaten!"
The man looked at his hands and laughed, "It's just right that my uncle is here. You can introduce yourself to me. I didn't expect you to be so strong. I like your energy. Don't be angry. I'll be your lover, okay?"
Jiang Xi kicked the man directly, and he cried out in pain. Jiang Xi took the opportunity to break free from the man's restraints and ran forward.
The man cursed and chased after Jiang Xi without caring about the pain in his body. Before Jiang Xi could run a few steps, he was caught by the man again. The man pressed Jiang Xi to the ground with a ferocious look on his wretched face.
"Little girl, don't refuse a toast and then drink a forfeit. While I'm in a good mood now, just obey me. Otherwise, hehe, you will suffer in the future."
Jiang Xi's eyes were almost spitting sparks. She glared at the wretched man and continued to struggle.
Although Jiang Xi was very strong, due to the physiological differences between men and women, Jiang Xi could not break free even if he tried his best.
The man laughed, as if he was even more excited by Jiang Xi's struggle: "Little girl, don't be so stubborn, let me treat you well!"
Jiang Xi struggled for a while and found it was useless, so she let go and stopped struggling, looking at the man while panting.
The man noticed that Jiang Xi didn't struggle and chuckled twice: "That's right, cooperate with me, I will definitely make you feel good. Don't worry, it's very comfortable and not painful at all. Maybe you will fall in love with this feeling in the future."
Jiang Xi felt a chill in her heart, but still forced herself to stay calm. When the man reached for her collar, Jiang Xi grabbed a stone on the ground and smashed it into the man's eyes.
Jiang Xi's movements were fast and fierce. The man was caught off guard and was hit. He let out a cry and let go of his hands to cover his eyes.
Jiang Xi took advantage of the situation and stood up and ran away quickly. Jiang Xi's ears were filled with the sound of the wind. She didn't have time to think about anything. Her mind was full of running faster and faster.
The man covered his eyes and shouted, "Little girl, you dare to hit me? Today, I will let you see how powerful I am. Don't run. Wait until I catch you. Just wait."
Jiang Xi ran forward as fast as he could, and the footsteps behind him continued to chase him.
Jiang Xi gritted his teeth, turned around and ran towards the woods next to him, and the people behind him also ran towards the woods.
Jiang Xi followed his memory and ran to a lower place where there was a hole where he could hide.
Jiang Xi curled up as much as possible and hid in the cave. The man's voice rang out in the woods: "Little girl, don't hide. I will find you sooner or later. Instead of letting me find you, you might as well offer yourself. I will be gentle with you."
Jiang Xi gritted his teeth to keep from making any sound, and tried hard to hold his breath and concentrate. The footsteps were both far and near, and Jiang Xi dared not move. The surroundings were terribly quiet, and Jiang Xi could even hear his own violent heartbeat.
The wretched man was still circling in the woods. The forest was not big, but it was uneven and there were many places to hide.
The man picked up a stick from the ground and used it to poke the grass. "Come out, little girl! Let's do something fun while the night is still bright. Otherwise, I'll find you sooner or later, and then I won't be so easy to talk to."
Jiang Xi's body was a little stiff. She didn't dare to make any sound, and even her breathing was suppressed by herself.
The man's footsteps still echoed in the grove, sometimes farther away, sometimes closer. Sometimes Jiang Xi could even feel that the man was right above his head.
Jiang Xi kept repeating in his heart: Calm down, calm down, he can't find you, he can't find you, Jiang Xi, you are a reborn person, and being able to be reborn means that God still favors you, you will get through this safely, you will get through this safely.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Xi heard another sound of footsteps. For a moment, the two footsteps mixed together, and Jiang Xi's heart almost jumped out.
The slightly moist air in the cave seemed like an invisible net that trapped Jiang Xi.
Jiang Xi couldn't help but imagine the most terrible situation in her mind. If she was really found, even if it cost her her life, she would make sure that the person who hurt her would suffer the consequences.
Jiang Xi thought of 100 ways to die together in her mind, when suddenly she heard a voice.
"Who are you? What are you doing here so late at night?"
The voice was very nice, with a unique clear tone. Jiang Xi almost cried for joy. It was Qi Yu'an, it was Qi Yu'an's voice!
Jiang Xi's eyes lit up.
The wretched man's voice reappeared: "Who are you? Why do you care what I'm doing here so late at night?"
"You're sneaky and don't look like a good person. Besides, you're not from the village. Who are you?"
The wretched man searched for Jiang Xi for a long time but couldn't find him. He was furious when a pretty boy suddenly appeared and dared to question him. He glared at him and cursed, "You little jerk! You still want to know who I am? Get out of here right now, or I'll make you pay!"
The wretched man was suddenly stopped by Qi Yu'an after he finished speaking: "Watch your mouth! What are you doing here? Did you see a girl? What did you do to her?"
Jiang Xi struggled to crawl out of the cave. Her body was a little stiff because she had been hiding for too long. After finally crawling out, she stumbled and fell to the ground. She ignored the pain in her body and yelled in the direction of Qi Yu'an: "Qi Yu'an, he is a bad guy. He just wanted to hurt me. Don't let him get away!"
Qi Yu'an was surprised when he heard Jiang Xi's voice, but after hearing the content clearly, Qi Yu'an's face darkened. It turned out that this man really wanted to harm Jiang Xi.
Qi Yu'an was frightened for a moment, so he quickly restrained the man and kicked him hard with all his strength.
The man struggled and screamed a few times, but he didn't expect that Qi Yu'an was much stronger than him. He instinctively wanted to beg for mercy, but before he could open his mouth, Qi Yu'an knocked the man unconscious with a palm.
After confirming that the man had fainted, Qi Yu'an quickly ran in the direction of Jiang Xi.
Jiang Xi had already crawled out of the cave. His body was numb from hiding for too long, so he could only lie on the ground and wait for the blood to flow back.
Qi Yu'an hurriedly helped Jiang Xi up, his eyes, which always smiled, now filled with panic and heartache.
Qi Yu'an observed Jiang Xi carefully. Jiang Xi's clothes were torn, his legs were covered with wounds, and his cheeks had several scratches from branches. His hair was disheveled and his eyes were filled with fear.
Qi Yu'an felt a sudden pain in his chest, a pain he had never experienced before. He felt the pain spread to every part of his body, making his breathing unstable. He spoke with a trembling voice, "Jiang Xi, are you okay?"
