Chaos erupted at the entrance; some went to help Fifth Master Ning, some went to find a doctor, and others went to deliver the messageā¦
I haven't heard of any hidden illness in Master Ning. Could it be Pei Nan and his group who did it? But I didn't see them lay a hand on Master Ning...
Suppressing his doubts, He Xiao ran to Pei Nansheng and said urgently:
"You should leave quickly. They are from the Ning family, and the Ning family is not so easy to mess with. If you don't leave now, it will be too late."
"Where to go? I just paid the fee and haven't moved in yet. If we leave now, we won't lose out."
After leisurely watching the commotion for a while, the three siblings slowly walked back into the village.
He Xiao stamped his foot in frustration, exclaimed "Hey!", and chased after them.
A man hidden in the crowd watched the whole thing, scrutinizing the three siblings for a long time before his gaze lingered on Zuo Ling. Once the people were out of sight, he turned and hurried off in one direction.
The Chinese Village is situated in an excellent location, nestled between mountains and the sea.
The houses on the hillside are the best built, while those closer to the sea are the simpler.
Pei Nansheng and his sister were new faces, and some people who didn't know what was going on approached them:
"Are you new here? Do you have a place to stay? Would you like me to introduce you?"
"OK."
Since we need to find a place to stay anyway, it might be good to listen.
He Xiao pushed the man aside: "Go away, go away, we've already arranged where to stay."
The man was displeased: "He Xiao, you've stolen my thunder! You're so unfair!"
He Xiao waved him off impatiently, grabbed Pei Nansheng and left, saying as they walked:
"Brother Pei, I know you have martial arts skills, but even two fists can't fight four hands. You'd better run for your lives."
Pei Nansheng patted him reassuringly: "If I'm not afraid, what are you afraid of?"
He Xiao said urgently:
"Hey, how should I put it? The Ning family not only has thugs under their command, but also people with superpowers. They are not people like us who can fight against them."
This was the first time Pei Nansheng and Zuo Ling had ever heard the term "superpowered person" from an ordinary person.
"Tell me, what kind of superpower do you have?"
He Xiao was so anxious that sweat beaded on his forehead:
"The Ning family exploits you severely. Do you think no one has sought justice? None of them have had a good ending. I'm not lying to you, hurry up and run for your lives."
Several of He Xiao's accomplices ran over, panting, and said:
"I heard...I heard that someone got into a fight with the Ning family at the gate, is that true?"
He Xiao remained silent, glancing at the three siblings.
The group was shocked: "No, it can't be...you guys, can it?"
Pei Nansheng laughed without hesitation: "It's us."
The group: "..."
"Scared? If you're scared, then stay away from us so you don't get dragged into this."
Pei Nansheng is very understanding.
He Xiao stomped his foot heavily:
"Fine, fine. I brought you here, so I owe you. If we're going to die, let's die together."
Thinking about it this way, my mind suddenly felt clear, and I was no longer afraid.
He Xiao was their pillar of support, and seeing him say this, the others chimed in:
"Yeah, if we're going to die, let's die together."
"Anyway, you guys saved my life."
"If you're willing to risk everything, even the King of Hell can pull you down. Hahaha, there's nothing to be afraid of."
"..."
Zuo Ling curled her lip upon hearing this. Ordinary people who go against the Ning family will only face death. This is not the way to seek death.
Pei Nansheng felt a surge of affection for him:
"There's no need for that. This was caused by my brother and me. It has nothing to do with you. You should stay away from us."
No matter what they said, they refused to leave.
He didn't leave earlier because of loyalty; he was persuaded to stay many times, and there was some affection involved.
Zuo Ling thought they were too foolish, but her gaze softened considerably when she looked at them.
They both thought too highly of people. Survival in the end times was difficult, and many people developed a sense of world-weariness, including He Xiao. They felt that it was better to be dead than alive, and that death would end everything.
Loyalty is nothing more than finding a beautiful excuse to absolve oneself.
