Meng Jiao gnashed her teeth in hatred, her eyes almost bloodshot.
She had a good plan, thinking that she could kill someone with a borrowed knife, lure these hooligans who were snooping around to the Wei family, and while they were not paying attention, rescue his sister and become his savior.
At that time, even if Wei Qingfeng was unwilling to marry her, he would have to acknowledge this life-saving favor, and would take better care of her and meet all her requests.
No matter how much she was calculating in her heart, she never expected that this time she had really accidentally brought Wei Qingfeng's enemy to his hometown.
How could she not have thought that the handsome, tall, fair-skinned man with phoenix eyes and sword-like eyebrows was referring to Wei Qingfeng! And what was he called Red Fox? From what she had heard along the way, his parents were both dead, his eldest brother was a soldier, and he had a fool sister, wasn't this referring to Wei Qingfeng!
When the sky was getting light, the hazy white fog still covered the entire mountain, and the village at the foot of the mountain was slowly waking up in the mist.
Wei Ci sat obediently on a chair in the main room, her big eyes closing from time to time and her little head dozing off little by little.
She was really sleepy. She had been busy in the space for half the night, and then came out to practice two sets of action diagrams. She was worried all night and no matter how much spiritual spring water she drank, she couldn't cheer up.
In the yard, seven or eight men were lying on the ground with their hands and feet tied and their mouths gagged, not moving. The only woman, Meng Jiao, was knocked unconscious and thrown into a corner, still unconscious.
Wei Ci nodded again so hard that he almost hit the table. He opened his eyes drowsily and looked at the gradually brightening sunlight outside. He then glanced at the unconscious man and woman on the ground. Finally, his gaze secretly fell on the old man with white hair and beard, wearing a coarse cloth shorts and resting with his eyes closed, who was sitting on the chair opposite.
Last night, the moment her door was pried open, she subconsciously wanted to sprinkle the powder in her hand.
Who would have thought that the next second, the great-uncle suddenly appeared like a ghost, and quickly dealt with all the intruders. He even tied them up and threw them in the yard to freeze for most of the night.
"He's quite alert, but his skills are a little lacking."
The old man had an unfathomable look on his face. He stroked his white beard that hung down to his chest, looked away from the little girl's clenched palms, and breathed a sigh of relief without making a sound.
He heard from that brat that his sister was too old and her bones were almost fixed, so it was impossible for her to practice martial arts.
But she is very skilled in pharmaceutical making. All the medicines that Uncle Hai took with him into the mountains were given by her. They were very effective, and he had no confidence that he would be able to escape unscathed even if he was infected.
"When you have time, come to the small courtyard (the collective housing for several veterans in the village) and I'll teach you two escape techniques. If you can't win, you can always run. Don't just stand there like an idiot. If you really run into a tough opponent, they'll knock you down in one move. By then, even your powerful powder won't be of any use."
Wei Ci took back the powder embarrassedly. Facing this old man who had always made it clear that he disliked her, she felt inexplicably timid, like a rabbit meeting its natural enemy.
She had never spent more than an hour with an old person.
In my previous life, my grandparents passed away early, and my mother was already single when my scumbag father married her, so naturally there are no elders in the family.
Later, the scumbag father became successful and married a rich girl. After the girl accidentally killed her brother after marriage, her mother was so sad that she simply stayed indoors. She had no contact with older people, so she didn't know how to get along with the elderly.
Second Grandma, Third Grandma and the others were fine. They were very welcoming and didn't require her to worry too much. They got along very well and had a great time chatting and listening to gossip together.
Only this old man, every time he sees her, her nose is not a nose and her eyes are not eyes.
Seeing her cowardly look, the great uncle snorted coldly, with a look of disappointment in her.
Wei Ci's long eyelashes drooped, hiding the smile in her eyes.
She thought that because of that prejudice, the old man would dislike her. He showed his displeasure as soon as he saw her. He either pretended not to see her or snorted coldly to express his dissatisfaction.
This time, she finally realized that the old man might not be dissatisfied with her because of prejudice, but because of her attitude towards him.
When facing other old men and women, she either smiled or tried to coax them, but when it came to him, she always avoided him, which made the old man feel wronged.
Wei Qingfeng walked into the room in the dew and saw this scene. After seeing several familiar faces tied to the ground, his pupils shrank and the aura around him became even more cold and frightening.
"You little bastard! You still remember to go home? Why are you wandering around in the middle of the night? You didn't even know your house was robbed!"
A slap came up, making Wei Qingfeng stagger. The inexplicably uncomfortable coldness disappeared, leaving only helplessness.
"Great uncle, don't you know where I've been?"
The old man snorted coldly, patted his clothes, rolled his eyes at him, and walked away with his hands behind his back, looking like a master.
He completed his mission and didn't let the girl get hurt at all. He wanted to go back and catch up on his sleep.
After thinking for a moment, the old man, who had one foot already out the door, pursed his lips and turned back to Wei Ci and said, "That... apple pie is delicious. If you want to learn the escape technique, you can use that in exchange."
After saying that, he disappeared with a swish, slipping away very quickly.
“Puff~”
Wei Ci was amused. This little old man just said he wanted to eat, and even used teaching body skills as an excuse.
Wei Qingfeng kicked the scarred man in an unspeakable spot on his face. After all, men understand men and know where to kick him that would cause him the most pain.
“Ouch!”
The man immediately bent over like a shrimp ball, covering the painful area with a mask of pain on his face, and his face swelled up to the color of liver.
"Red Fox! You dare to hit me? Aren't you afraid that Brother Tiger will really turn against you and kill you?"
Wei Qingfeng raised the corner of his mouth slightly, with an evil look in his eyes.
"Do you still have time to go back?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the scarred man's face turned pale and his lips began to tremble.
How could Red Fox, one of the three giants in the black market who is as famous as Black Tiger and Leopard, be someone who can be easily messed with? From the past to the present, countless people have fallen into his hands, but no one can do anything about him.
"Aci, what kind of poison do you have?"
Wei Ci was stunned for a moment, then understood what she meant. She returned to her room and came out again with a few small porcelain bottles in her hand, which she handed to Wei Qingfeng.
"This is the Heart-Breaking Powder. If you take it, you'll suffer intestinal cramps. Without an antidote, you'll die from the pain. This is the Heart-Breaking Powder. Without an antidote, your heart will be shattered and you'll vomit it out..."
The more he listened, the wider his eyes opened. Even though he didn't believe it, he was still shaking with fear. Then he rolled his eyes and wanted to faint.
"Don't faint yet, we haven't finished talking yet, how can you faint?"
Bang! The man fell straight down and was no longer able to move.
"Tsk, that's really scary."
After saying that, he turned around and looked at Wei Ci, wanting to reach out and touch the little girl's face.
"Don't worry, I won't leave you alone at home. Great uncle has always been around our house to protect you."
