Chapter 181 A dark and windy night is perfect for slinging someone in and beating them up.
Lin Luoxi was busy communicating with Zhu Yeqing, but in reality, she was unilaterally setting rules for Zhu Yeqing.
The bamboo viper had no choice but to lower its head because the good stuff on Lin Luoxi was so attractive.
Auntie Pang's side—
The fat aunt was mercilessly rebuked by the Lin family father and daughter at the Lin family home, and her resentment towards the Lin family had risen to a certain level.
"Damn Lin Dayou, you just wait. I'm just relying on my money, and then..." The fat aunt walked home alone, cursing Lin Luoxi and Lin Dayou as she went, and she also cursed everyone else.
It was a dark and windy night, and several families living near her house had already gone to bed early.
With a "thud," a burlap sack fell from the sky, completely encasing the plump aunt from head to toe.
"Help, ugh..." Realizing something was wrong, she opened her mouth to shout for help, but was struck hard in the face, and couldn't utter a sound.
"Thump, thump..." A powerful fist struck the fat aunt's face rapidly, making a thud as it hit flesh.
This was the first time the plump aunt had encountered such a situation, and she was filled with panic.
His body and face were in excruciating pain, and he cried out "Ouch, ouch!" even louder.
After hitting her for a while, the fat aunt's cries of pain gradually subsided. In addition, several nearby households were awakened by the commotion and all turned on their lights. Only then did the perpetrator stop and quickly leave the scene.
"It seems like there was some noise coming from over here." The family where Aunt Fat's accident happened rushed out immediately. Seeing that it was pitch black outside and everything returned to calm, they thought it was just a hallucination.
But when all the surrounding households came out, they realized that something serious had really happened.
They started searching the vicinity and found a sack-shaped object by the roadside, from which faint groaning sounds could be heard from time to time.
"There seems to be a person here!" The first family to emerge exclaimed, pointing to the movement inside the sack.
When the others heard what the villager said, they thought someone had died and were all startled. They all gathered around the villager who had spoken.
Someone took out a tinderbox from their pocket, which they were reluctant to use, lit it, and illuminated the surrounding darkness.
"There really is a person." And judging by the size, he's quite large. However, the clothes he's wearing look familiar, and the shape of the clothes also looks familiar.
As they approached, they heard a faint call coming from inside the sack. Ignoring their curiosity, they reached out and pulled the sack off their bodies.
"It's actually Auntie Fatty!" Everyone exclaimed in surprise when they saw the person covered by the sack.
"How awful, how awful! I wonder who this gossipy old woman offended to be beaten like this..." Upon discovering that the person in the sack was the plump aunt, the villagers who came out in the middle of the night couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Which kind family actually did something for them that they wanted to do but didn't dare to?
They had long disliked this gossipy, plump auntie, but they didn't bother with her too much because she was a woman.
Now, seeing the auntie who was already as fat as a pig's head, her whole face looked like it had been stung by a wasp and was swollen up. Not only were her eyes just slits, but her mouth had also turned into sausage lips, making her extremely ugly.
If it weren't for the large, hairy mole on the corner of her mouth, these villagers might not have recognized her.
"What bad luck!" the villagers cursed, but they still carried the fat aunt back to his house together.
The dark path returned to calm once more.
"Master, did we go a little too far?" Xie Yanli, who was beside Xie Hanchuan, had also seen the fat aunt's miserable state and raised an eyebrow at his master.
"Yanli, do you know why your father named you this?"
"Because your dad wants to tell you to talk less." Xie Hanchuan rubbed his sore fist. That fat auntie's skin was too thick; his whole fist hurt.
"Hmph!" Xie Yanli snorted indignantly upon hearing Xie Hanchuan's words.
Xie Yanli is the son of Xie Hanchuan's master. Because Xie Hanchuan's parents had been kind to his master and knew that Xie Hanchuan had a heavy responsibility, they sent their son to Xie Hanchuan's side to protect him.
Xie Yanli was both a junior brother and a brother to Xie Hanchuan.
Therefore, the way the two get along is rather unique.
"Let's go, we've vented our anger, let's go see what that girl is doing?" Xie Hanchuan saw that Aunt Pang had been rescued and didn't linger there any longer. He patted Xie Yanli on the shoulder and walked towards the Lin family's house.
...
"I'm talking to you, did you hear me?"
"When we get back, I'll give you to my brother. You'd better put away your fangs and not hurt my family..." Lin Luoxi threatened the bamboo viper wrapped around her wrist as she walked.
The bamboo leaf green on Lin Luoxi's wrist was about to nod to indicate that it understood what Lin Luoxi said.
But sensing a stranger approaching, it immediately retracted its triangular head and looked toward the road not far in front of Lin Luoxi.
Lin Luoxi, with her excellent night vision, naturally saw Zhu Yeqing's movements and looked ahead as well.
"Hey, Luo Xi, why aren't you asleep yet?" Xie Hanchuan had assumed Lin Luo Xi was already asleep by now, but was surprised to see her return from outside. Before Lin Luo Xi could speak, he frowned and asked.
Xie Yanli, who was beside him, had already hidden himself in the shadows when he saw Lin Luoxi.
"Oh, the prescription I developed needs a medicinal ingredient, so I went to the bamboo forest behind the house."
"Brother Hanchuan, what do you think of this bamboo viper? Isn't it cute?" Lin Luoxi showed Xie Hanchuan the bamboo viper on her wrist and handed it to him for him to see.
"Ah!" Xie Hanchuan screamed in fright when he heard the hissing sound of a snake flicking its tongue and saw the terrifyingly bright vertical pupils in the darkness.
"Haha, Brother Hanchuan, Xiaoqing is so cute, how could you be so scared that you screamed?" Lin Luoxi couldn't help but laugh when she saw Xie Hanchuan scream out of control for the first time.
In fact, Lin Luoxi did it on purpose. Don't think she didn't see the figure that had just disappeared into the darkness beside Xie Hanchuan.
Everyone thought Xie Hanchuan was an orphan, but little did they know that it was just an act he put on for everyone to see.
The fact that the person just now possessed the ability to become one with the darkness suggests that Xie Hanchuan's identity is not simple.
However, Xie Hanchuan was not born and raised in Wutong Village, so it's normal that no one knows his original identity.
Besides, everyone has their own secrets, just like her.
