Chapter 159 Capturing the Thieves



In one round, he stabbed two of his brothers!

Before the assassination attempt even succeeded, he had already lost four brothers. And he's still playing like this!

A masked man to his right stared at Cheng Qingyan and spoke to him directly: "Brother, that woman's information is wrong!"

How could he not know the current situation?

Now that things have come to this, he's wondering whether to fight to the death or run away.

If they run away, they definitely won't be able to take care of the brothers on the ground.

If they hadn't run away, the brothers standing there, including himself, might have ended up like the four brothers on the ground, lying there waiting to die.

Cheng Qingyan did not take the initiative; he had already backed down at this point.

He glanced at his two brothers who were still unconscious on the stone slab, and at the man on the ground clutching his wound and groaning, and ordered: "The situation has changed, retreat!"

The brother on his right looked at him in disbelief: "Big brother! The rest of us are still on the ground!"

He took a step back, staring at Cheng Qingyan, afraid she might suddenly make a move: "Never mind that, let's retreat! We're no match for them, damn it!"

Cheng Qingyan hadn't had enough of beating them yet, how could he let them leave so easily?

These people want her and her wife dead; how could she let them come and go as they please?

"Gentlemen, do you really think this is a vegetable market? You think you can come and go as you please?"

"Even though it's late at night, you're still awake. Trying to leave? What kind of dream are you having?"

"What did Ye Lingxi tell you? Tell me? Oh, it's not that I want to hear it, it's that the sword in my hand wants to hear it."

The leader of the men in black shouted, "Run!"

Of the few men in black who were still intact, only one didn't run away. He wanted to wait for Cheng Qingyan to chase after the fleeing people so that he could have a chance to save the people on the ground.

Cheng Qingyan stood still: "If you move again, you'll all die~"

The four on the ground didn't move, while the other three continued running.

Fortunately, the three idiots only ran in one direction when they escaped.

Cheng Qingyan gave Ye Lingyu a look, then chased after the fleeing people.

The person who hadn't run away yet saw his chance and rushed forward to help one of the injured people on the ground.

"Brother, how are your injuries? I'll take you away right away!"

The man on the ground who had been called "brother" opened his mouth, but then shook his head.

He thought his younger brother was too badly injured: "Brother, don't give up, your older brother won't leave you alone!"

It wasn't until he felt a chill on his neck that he realized why his younger brother had shaken his head.

He didn't dare turn around, after all, the sword pressed against his neck didn't have eyes.

Then he heard three heavy thuds behind him, followed by a very light footstep.

"Uncle Mu, find a rope and tie him up securely."

Cheng Qingyan came up behind the man, and Ye Lingyu sheathed her sword.

Then, Cheng Qingyan asked the older brother, "Do you still want to fight? After all, you're the only one who's unharmed, which seems a bit unfair to the others."

The man replied tremblingly, "We won't fight anymore. It was our poor eyesight that led us to believe that woman's words!"

Cheng Qingyan chuckled softly: "Ha, you all brought this on yourselves, you can't blame anyone else."

"Greedy, immoral, and indiscriminately killing innocent people, even if you don't fall into my hands today, someone will deal with you in the future."

If you walk by the river often enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet.

She doesn't have a habit of killing; due to the habits and legal concepts left over from modern society, she wouldn't easily let herself have human lives on her hands.

Even if these people came to assassinate them, they are now powerless to fight back, so she doesn't need to dirty her hands.

Perhaps in this era, killing is not a big deal.

If she handles it properly, these people can completely disappear from this world.

It was because she was unwilling and didn't want to that these people were able to survive.

Wen Pingcheng knelt down before Cheng Qingyan and begged for mercy: "My lord, we are not human. We make money against our conscience."

"I will not complain about whatever you do to me, but please save my brother, he is dying!"

His younger brother, Wen Pingshuo, was the one on the left who was stabbed by Cheng Qingyan.

Mu Zhiyue and Hongyu took ropes and tied up the two people who had fallen at Ruan Banxia's door.

After that, they went to tie up the three people that Cheng Qingyan had thrown in from across the courtyard.

When Cheng Qingyan stabbed these people, he didn't know where he stabbed them. If he had really stabbed them near their hearts, then those people would probably be beyond saving.

"Now you know how to beg for mercy? If you were to kill me today, and my wife begged for mercy, would you let me go?"

The man didn't reply, he just kept kowtowing on the ground.

Cheng Qingyan sighed. She really didn't want to put a soul ring on this courtyard of the new house.

"It's no use begging me, go beg that doctor. If you make her happy, she'll naturally save the person." After saying that, Cheng Qingyan pointed towards Ruan Banxia.

Ruan Banxia rolled her eyes. What a good friend! The person she stabbed is now giving her a way out.

Sometimes, she really didn't know what Cheng Qingyan was thinking!

Even if all these people were killed, the government would not pursue the matter.

But Cheng Qingyan did not harm a single person.

Wen Pingcheng knelt down and kowtowed to Ruan Banxia. Ruan Banxia yawned and waved her hand, saying, "Saving people is very expensive. Can you afford the price?"

Since none of them are good people, she doesn't need to be one either.

Wen Pingcheng kowtowed: "Please tell me, as long as you can save my brother, I will do whatever you say from now on. I will serve you like a slave without any complaints."

Oxen can plow fields and pull carts, and horses can pull carts too. Why should a person be an ox or a horse and compete with oxen and horses for work?

Ruan Banxia replied lazily, "Forget it, we have both cows and horses at home, it's not your place to be a cow or a horse."

"Swallow this pill, entrust your life to me, and I'll consider saving him."

She tossed Wen Pingcheng a black pill, slightly larger than a soybean but smaller than a peanut.

Upon receiving the pill, Wen Heisei swallowed it without hesitation.

Seeing that he had swallowed the pill, Ruan Banxia stretched her body and said, "Sigh, I suddenly feel bad and don't want to save him anymore."

"What can I do? You've already taken the poison. I've done a good deed by sending you brothers to the underworld to reunite."

"On this road to the underworld, you are a group of people to keep you company, so you are not lonely."

Wen Pingcheng was taken aback and was about to crawl on his knees to block Ruan Banxia's path.

Unexpectedly, Ruan Banxia changed the subject and glanced at him, saying, "I was just teasing you. I'm going to check on your brother's injuries."

In the pitch black, Mu Zhiyue brought over a lamp, and Ruan Banxia barely managed to examine Wen Pingshuo's wound.

Afterwards, he went back into the house, took out a medicine bottle, and gave it to Wen Pingcheng: "Sprinkle it on his wounds and carry him to the big tree over there."
