Chapter 63: Subdue Zhao Qiang, the family is reduced to ashes
Zhao Qiang ran all the way into the woods. He thought he could get rid of Jiang Ning, but in fact Jiang Ning was getting closer and closer to him.
"Hu...Hu..."
Zhao Qiang panted heavily, his forehead was sweating, and he was cursing in his heart.
Is this stinky woman really a woman? How come she doesn't look tired at all?
Zhao Qiang didn't dare to stop at all, and ran forward without looking back.
However, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and the forest was even darker. Zhao Qiang stepped on the piled leaves and couldn't see the road under his feet at all.
Suddenly, his foot hit a protruding tree root, and Zhao Qiang staggered uncontrollably. Although he quickly stabilized his body, this momentary delay was enough for Jiang Ning.
Jiang Ning seized this opportunity and stabbed Zhao Qiang's temple with all her strength with the knife in her left hand.
If this stab succeeded, Zhao Qiang would definitely die on the spot.
Zhao Qiang himself was also very clear about this. Jiang Ning had already entangled him, and he couldn't run away. It would be better to fight her directly. Who would win or lose was still uncertain.
After thinking this through, Zhao Qiang turned around on the spot, twisted his body suddenly to the side, and avoided the fatal blow.
Just as he was about to fight back, he felt a sharp pain in his left knee. Zhao Qiang lost his strength instantly and fell to the ground. Then he felt a chill on his neck, and a cold dagger pressed against his throat.
"Are you still running?" Zhao Qiang heard the woman ask coldly.
"Spare my life! I won't run anymore, lady, spare my life!"
Zhao Qiang's panicked voice sounded, as if he was really afraid of death, and his whole body was shaking like a sieve.
When Jiang Ning couldn't see him, Zhao Qiang didn't have any fear in his eyes. Instead, he grabbed a handful of soil mixed with mud, sand, and rotten leaves with his hands hanging by his side.
"Lady, spare my life, spare my life! I won't dare to do it again, I won't dare to do it again..." Zhao Qiang still pretended to beg for mercy, his eyes rolling around, quietly waiting for an opportunity to strike.
"What is your purpose?" Jiang Ning asked.
"I, I am just greedy. I heard from others that you won more than one hundred taels of silver in Jinyufang, so I had evil thoughts. I, I was wrong. I won't dare to do it again. Please spare me..." Zhao Qiang said half-truthfully, and his tone of begging for mercy was very sincere.
Jiang Ning heard this, but didn't say anything. He held the dagger steadily, thinking about the credibility of his words.
Now!
Zhao Qiang knew that the opportunity could not be missed, and he waved the mud and sand in his hand towards Jiang Ning's face.
Jiang Ning noticed the moment Zhao Qiang raised his hand, and immediately took a half step back, turning his face to avoid sand getting into his eyes.
Zhao Qiang took the opportunity to stand up, clenched his fist and attacked Jiang Ning fiercely in the face.
"You don't know your own limits!"
Jiang Ning sneered, and directly took Zhao Qiang's fist with his right hand, stepped back a step, used the force to counter his attack, and then raised his knees, pushed up hard, and hit Zhao Qiang's abdomen.
Zhao Qiang still didn't give up, and his right hand was caught by Jiang Ning, and he swung a punch with his left hand.
Jiang Ning didn't have the patience to waste time with him, and turned the blade in his hand. There was a "snap" sound, and the sound of clothes being cut came. Zhao Qiang groaned in pain and covered his injured arm.
As soon as Zhao Qiang withdrew his hand, Jiang Ning did not hesitate at all and clamped his arm. She exerted force on her hand, and the sound of two bones colliding "crack" was clearly heard by the two people. Both of Zhao Qiang's arms were dislocated by Jiang Ning. This time there was no room for struggle.
The dagger was placed on his neck again, and Jiang Ning's voice was colder than before: "Are you still running?"
Zhao Qiang closed his eyes and resigned himself to his fate: "No, you can kill me if you want, or just give me a quick death."
Jiang Ning slowly raised the corners of her lips. Before she figured out Zhao Qiang's motives, she had never thought of killing him.
Jiang Ning knew that Zhao Qiang was quite skilled, so the initial attack with the dagger was just a feint, designed to attract his attention. The real attack was to his feet, catching him off guard, destroying his base, so that Zhao Qiang would no longer be able to fight back.
But this man does have some skills, and he was able to entangle with her for so long, Jiang Ning thought.
Zhao Qiang waited anxiously for Jiang Ning to deal with him, but she didn't move after waiting for a long time. He just opened his eyes to ask her what she wanted to do, but he was hit hard on the back of his neck as soon as he opened his mouth, and the whole person fainted instantly. Jiang Ning threw
Zhao Qiang into the space and turned around to go back home. Directly killing someone is likely to bring unnecessary trouble, especially since Zhao Qiang's uncle is an official in the government. In this era of "people do not fight officials", Liu Ming'an should be better at handling this matter than her.
Jiang Ning planned to wake Liu Ming'an up after returning home, but when she walked out of the woods and was still half a mile away from home, she saw a flame in the distance.
Liu Ming'an's house is on fire!
The fire was fierce. Jiang Ning stared blankly at the fire burning in the dark night, illuminating the world.
I don't know whose dog is barking, maybe it was the dog's barking that woke up the sleeping person. Several people stood in front of Liu Ming'an's house, talking about something, and there was a faint cry from them.
Someone else entered the house after she and Zhao Qiang left and set it on fire!
Fortunately, fortunately! Fortunately, Liu Ming'an was put in the space in advance.
Jiang Ning felt a little scared, and the arm holding the dagger was shaking.
When Liu Ming'an woke up, he found himself leaning against a tree, and Jiang Ning squatted in front of him with an ugly face.
"Jiang Ning, why did I sleep here?"
Liu Ming'an sat up and tried to recall what happened before. He seemed to be teaching Jiang Ning how to comb her hair, but what happened later? Why didn't he have any memory of it at all?
After Jiang Ning took Liu Ming'an out of the space, he fed him spiritual spring water. In less than half a minute, he woke up slowly.
"Liu Ming'an, listen to me carefully," Jiang Ning said seriously, "Master Zhao coveted our 100 taels of silver, and put a drug in the water tank in broad daylight when you were not paying attention, so you fainted. For some reason, I was awake and planned to catch the turtle in the jar, but I was afraid of hurting you, so I took you out in advance, which is why you are sleeping here now."
Liu Ming'an was stunned, and then he continued to say, "Master Zhao and I fought in the house. I wanted to catch him, but he ran away. After I chased him out and subdued him, I came back here and found that the house was on fire. Look..."
Jiang Ning said this, with a dark look in his eyes.
Liu Ming'an looked in the direction of Jiang Ning's finger, and saw a blazing sea of fire. That was his home!
Liu Mingan stood up suddenly, not caring about Jiang Ning, and ran straight to the burning house.
There was nothing valuable in the house, but there were his parents' relics and the testimony of his heartbeat, which were worth a thousand gold to Liu Mingan.
Jiang Ning looked at Liu Mingan's back and lowered her eyes.
She had finally brought disaster to Liu Mingan.
