Chapter 48 Chapter 48 Recently I have been learning how to castrate a pig
Half a quarter of an hour later, the five men who followed Yu Li out of the city squatted on the ground with their hands on their heads, their faces covered in dust and bruises.
Yu Li stood in front of them with a rattan stick in his hand.
This cane was picked up from the bushes on the roadside. Although it was not dried in the sun, it was still very painful when it hit the body, and each whip left a red, swollen and broken mark.
Yu Li controlled his strength within a range that could cause pain to people's bones but would not cause them to break any bones.
Such pain is unbearable for ordinary people.
In the eyes of several men, Yu Li was like a terrible devil from hell, making them tremble with fear, fearing that the cane would hit them.
This woman's beating really hurts!
They rolled on the ground in pain, but if they rolled away she would pull them back, and they couldn't escape at all.
Just now, someone saw that the situation was not right and turned around to run, but a stone flew from behind and hit his leg. It felt like his leg was broken and he could not get up anymore.
The others were terrified.
Yu Li asked: "Why are you following me?"
None of the five men dared to say a word.
Yu Li directly swung the rattan stick at the tall man on the far left, and even the sound of a whip was heard in the air.
"explain!"
The tall man screamed and fell to the ground, while the others were shaking with fear.
The short and thin man next to him said quickly: "We saw you often buying things in the city, you must have made a lot of money..."
"Yes, we just want to get some money from you."
After a severe beating, Yu Li confirmed that these people simply wanted to rob her of her money.
They were idlers in the county town who had nothing to do all day long and only robbed ordinary people who were weak and powerless. Their targets were usually ordinary people who came to the city from the countryside to buy things, or those who were alone and went home after receiving their wages from working outside...
Ever since Yu Li started working in the butcher shop, he would go shopping every day after getting paid.
If she bought things so often, it would naturally attract the attention of the idlers wandering around the streets. And looking at her skinny appearance, she looked like a weak woman, so she naturally became their target.
So today they followed her out of the city, intending to rob her outside the city.
After Yu Li confirmed again and again that they really just wanted to steal her money and were not assigned by anyone, she did not let them go.
It is even more unforgivable to dare to rob her of the money she earned through hard work!
These people are habitual offenders. This kind of gang commits crimes and only robs ordinary people. Ordinary people dare not report to the authorities and can only consider themselves unlucky. Naturally, the government will not intervene. At most, they will only send more officers to patrol the county town. As for what happens outside the city, the government has no control over it.
Yu Li beat them again, making them scream in pain and filled with fear.
This woman is so scary. The cane in her hand is like a dragnet. No matter how they run or roll, they cannot escape its attack range. It is so painful when it hits their bodies that even a grown man cannot bear it.
After Yu Li choked for a while, he asked again: "Did you want to do something to me just now?"
These five robbers were tall, short, fat, thin, with shifty eyes, and it was obvious that they were not decent people.
Of course, what displeased her the most was the look in their eyes just now.
If a normal girl meets these five people, she will not be able to escape at all. It is hard to predict what will happen. If they become bold and determined to do something evil, I am afraid they will ruin the lives of those girls.
“No, no…”
Several people huddled together and cried out.
They really regretted it. They shouldn't have robbed her, and they shouldn't have had evil thoughts just because she was pretty. Now they knew that the woman they met was not a weak woman, but a female evil star who could beat people with a cane. They regretted it so much.
Yu Li listened to their crying expressionlessly and continued to beat them. He beat them until they cried and screamed again, and asked, "Have you ever bullied other girls before? Did you do anything bad to them?"
Several people: "..."
"explain!"
“Yes, yes, but we just took advantage of them. We didn’t do anything to them… ahhh—”
The screams could be heard from far away. It was noon, and although it was already autumn, the autumn heat was still very powerful. Few people would travel at this time, so naturally no one could hear the screams.
Yu Li didn't care and continued to beat them until they cried bitterly and regretted deeply. They swore that they would never do such things again and would never rob again. They would definitely change their ways and be good people. They would never bully girls and would not even look at them for a second...
Yu Li finally stopped and looked at the men who were crying.
She tapped her toes and said, "I don't believe you. I'd better cut off your third leg that you used to commit crimes." Thinking of something, she kindly explained, "It just so happens that I'm learning how to slaughter pigs recently. I will definitely cut it off for you completely."
Men: "…" What? Castrate a pig? You are a girl, why do you want to learn how to castrate a pig?
Ahhh! No, she was going to slaughter them like pigs!
Can’t castrate it!!!!
They instantly clamped their legs together and looked at her in horror.
"We were wrong!" They burst into tears again, full of remorse. "Please forgive us, don't torture us... We will definitely turn over a new leaf and listen to you. If you tell us to go east, we will never go west. We are willing to do whatever you say, please don't..."
If a man is castrated, is he still a man?
After a long time, Yu Li finally showed mercy and said, "Then don't castrate me for now."
Men: “…”
If I don't castrate my penis for the time being, will I have to do it in the future? I am still in danger of being castrated!
"Tell me your name, home address, and who's at home." Yu Li said, "I'm going to visit your home tomorrow."
In order to prevent them from reporting the wrong home addresses, she separated the men one by one and asked them to report everyone's home address. If any of them didn't match, he would be castrated.
The men originally wanted to report a random number, but after she tricked them, they were worried that others might report something wrong, so they had to tell the truth.
After saying this, they felt as if they had lost their parents, especially when they thought that she might come to find them tomorrow, which made them even more desperate.
Yu Li wrote down their names and addresses one by one. Among these five people, the tallest one was called Gao Sheng, the short and thin one was called Wu Shouzi, and there were also Wang Sanlang, Li Silang, etc. Their names were all easy to remember.
Then she added, "Take out all your money."
Everyone: “…”
Unable to fight back and being abused again, they did not dare to resist and obediently took out the money they had on them.
Yu Li took a look and showed disgust on his face.
This only added up to fifty-three copper coins, not even enough for her one-day salary.
Seeing her expression of disdain, Gao Sheng was afraid that she would whip him, so he quickly said, "We spent all of it..."
How can idlers like them save money? When they have money, they spend it. When they don't have money, they steal or rob, or do debt collection work for others. It makes money quickly and in large amounts, and is much easier than making a decent living.
Yu Li took all 53 copper coins with confidence and said to them: "Starting tomorrow, you must find me a decent job and pay me one tael of silver per month, otherwise I will castrate you."
Facing their horrified expressions, she sneered, "Don't even think about running away. You can run away from the temple, but you can't. If you run away and I catch you, you don't want to experience that fate."
Everyone: “…”
After doing all this, Yu Li said, "Okay, get out of here!"
The men were stunned for a moment, then realized that they could leave. They got up tremblingly and left, supporting each other.
They felt burning pain all over, their legs were weak, and they could not walk fast. However, they did not dare to stop because they thought of the terrifying female evil star watching them from behind.
**
After Yu Li returned home and had dinner, he washed the sweet fruits he had bought in the county town and took them back to his room.
When Fu Wenxiao saw that she bought some fruit today, he understood the reason after a quick thought and found it a little funny.
Is she treating herself like a child?
"They are all pure sweet." Yu Li said to him, "Not sour at all. I picked them carefully. They are quite expensive."
If she hadn't had time to go into the mountains, she would rather go there to find sweet fruits for free.
Fu Wenxiao strangely understood the expression on her face, reached out, picked up a fruit and put it in his mouth.
It was indeed very sweet. It seemed that she had honed her taste in selecting fruits.
We've been in the mountains for more than half a month and eaten so many wild fruits, so we can gain some experience.
Yu Li also grabbed a handful of fruit and ate it. She never had the concept of "I can't eat or be reluctant to eat the things I buy for you". No matter who she bought things for, she would eat them too, and she would definitely eat more than the other person.
While eating, she talked about how someone followed her when she came back today.
Fu Wenxiao frowned at first, but when he heard how she dealt with those second-rate guys who followed and robbed her, a smile escaped the corners of his lips.
Seeing her looking at him after she finished speaking, he nodded slightly, "You did the right thing. This is what you should do when facing something like this. You can't be soft-hearted."
Yu Li nodded and said as a matter of course: "I think so too! If it weren't for the fact that removing their third legs would make men more perverted, and I don't know what they would do in the future, affecting social security, I would actually want to just remove them."
Fu Wenxiao: “…”
Fu Wenxiao's expression seemed a little forced.
But she actually asked him, "Is that so?"
Fu Wenxiao: “…Yes.”
Yu Li sighed, still feeling a little regretful.
For scum like this who bullies women, it would be best if they castrated their tools, but it would be bad if they became perverts and the girls became the victims.
In fact, the best way is to solve the problem once and for all, but killing people is definitely not an option.
**
The next day, after finishing work, Yu Li went on a "home visit".
Perhaps her threat yesterday was too terrifying, Gao Sheng and the others all stayed at home obediently waiting for her to come.
Yu Li did not mind wasting time. He went to find them one by one to confirm their situation, and then ordered them to find a decent job within three days.
After a night of brewing, the marks on the men's faces looked even more terrifying. The red and swollen marks from the canes covered their heads, faces and places not covered by clothes.
It's obvious at first glance that he was beaten badly.
In fact, they were in pain all over, and every wound was burning and unforgettable.
When they went back yesterday, their relatives, friends, neighbors and others were all shocked to see their appearance. Some felt distressed, some gloated, some were curious... and they were all wondering if they had offended someone.
After all, these second-rate guys are always causing trouble everywhere, and they always offend people they shouldn't offend, so it's not surprising that they get beaten.
Yu Li said, "From now on, whenever I have time, I will come to see you and see if you are doing your work properly. If you continue like before, I will have to take action."
Her eyes flicked down below them.
Men: “…”
At this time, Wu Shouzi asked weakly: "Is being a thug in a casino considered a legitimate livelihood?"
Others also asked, "Does helping people collect debts count?"
"Also, there is more..."
The five men talked at once, but no matter how hard they racked their brains, they couldn't think of a legitimate livelihood that would suit them.
Yu Li kicked Gao Sheng who said he was a debt collector, and then kicked Wu Shouzi who said he was a thug in the casino.
The other three were silent and kept their mouths shut.
Yu Li’s threat was so terrifying that these scoundrels didn’t even have time to heal their wounds before they hurried to find work.
They wanted to find a decent job, but it was impossible for them to work in gambling or debt collection, which made money quickly. So they had to look around in the market, and they did find a job, but the pay was not high.
Like barbers, shoemakers, night watchmen, etc.
Yu Li thought it was okay and did not attack them again. He just kept an eye on them and went to their workplace from time to time.
Everyone: “…”
As time went by, they also knew Yu Li's name and knew that she worked in Zhang's butcher shop.
When they learned that she was actually a butcher, they finally understood why she dared to buy things in the county town alone without fear of being targeted, and walked back to the village alone without worrying about encountering robbers.
The security in Shanping County is relatively better because there are troops stationed there, but it is not completely impossible to be robbed.
When villagers from nearby villages go to the city to buy things, they walk together in groups, so no one dares to rob them.
In fact, it is not only Shanping County, but many places are like this, and the situation is even worse.
The public security in this world is not good. It is okay to have patrol officers in the city, but some officers even take the lead in robbing and eating without paying. It all depends on the character of the officials under their jurisdiction.
Robbery is just a minor case to the county magistrates, and they generally don't take it seriously. The victims can only consider themselves unlucky. At most, they will not act alone in the future and will find a companion to travel with.
Gao Sheng and others were frightened by Yu Li's beatings. They were scared just by hearing her name and could only work hard to earn money.
That day, after finishing their work, they made an appointment to go to the pub for a drink.
There is no other way. Life like this is too hard to bear. If they don't drink some wine to relieve their boredom, they don't know when they can get through it.
But they didn't expect to hear the name "Yu Li" while drinking.
Gao Sheng and others shuddered and turned their heads carefully to look over, and found that the people talking were three scholars. They sat together, ordered some wine, and there were several dishes of snacks on the table.
"Is Yu Li really so excessive?" asked the eighteen or nineteen-year-old scholar wearing a square scarf in surprise.
"Yes." The scholar, who was about 20 years old, said gloomily, "I heard Zong Ge'er say it himself. She actually..."
Yu Jingde found it difficult to speak. His father was forced to his knees and could not get up. It was not easy to tell this to anyone, as it would not only bring shame to his father, but also to them.
After knowing this, the two brothers finally understood Boss Yu's moody temper, and even felt quite sympathetic towards him, and became even angrier with Yu Li.
Chen Zhongxun's face turned cold, and he said angrily, "She beat Cheng Ge'er last time. Although Cheng Ge'er was wrong, she really shouldn't have beaten him so hard."
Even though I knew my brother was in the wrong, people always protect their brothers. When I saw Cheng'er's face was swollen for several days before it went down and he kept crying in pain, how could I not feel distressed?
Unexpectedly, I learned from the Yu Jingde brothers that Yu Li had actually done such a heinous thing.
Ever since they learned about what their father had experienced, the Yu Jingde brothers have been extremely angry. They wanted to go back to the village and teach Yu Li a lesson, but their mother told them not to provoke her.
Both of them had promised their mother that they could only endure it.
But they resisted the urge to go back to the village to settle the score with Yu Li, but they actually saw her in the county town.
This is also a coincidence.
In the morning, they usually don't eat breakfast at home, but find a stall outside to eat. Yesterday morning when they were eating breakfast on the street, they happened to see Yu Li delivering pork to the bun shop next door.
After asking the people at the bun shop, I learned that she had actually come to the county town to work and was recently running errands for a butcher shop, delivering meat.
The Yu family was torn apart by her, but she didn't feel any guilt at all. Instead, she went to the county town to find a job and didn't take them seriously at all.
The two brothers were very angry. If Yu Li hadn't run fast, they would have gone to argue with her, scolded her, and made her admit her mistake ashamed.
Today they were drinking with Xun Ge'er from their grandfather's family, and they told him about this.
Chen Zhongxun was about the same age as them, and the three of them got along very well. They often studied and played together, and their relationship was better than that of ordinary cousins.
Chen Zhongxun thought of Cheng Ge'er being beaten and felt that Yu Li was simply a shrew, the kind who would not let go even if she was right. Looking at the distressed looks of the Yu Jingde brothers, he suddenly asked, "Do you want to teach her a lesson?"
"What?" Yu Jingli was stunned for a moment, and asked hurriedly, "Do you have a solution?"
Of course they wanted to teach her a lesson, but they had no chance and didn't know how to start.
Chen Zhongxun said: "You know, my great aunt's grandson is a yamen runner, why not let him go and scare her."
Before Chen Xiucai became rich, the Chen family was a typical country family, no different from the common people who worked in the fields for a living.
Later, after Chen Xiucai decided to open a private school in the county town, he bought a house and settled down there, and moved his family there.
The Chen family has many relatives, and they make a living in all kinds of ways.
The grandson of my great aunt was surnamed Zhu. The position of yamen runner was passed down from generation to generation in the family. When it came to my great aunt's cousin, he was also a yamen runner.
Country people are not very knowledgeable and will become a little timid when they see the police.
Chen Zhongxun felt that although Yu Li dared to hit people, she was just an illiterate country woman, so she should be the same.
The eyes of the Yu Jingde brothers lit up when they heard this, "That's a good idea!"
"It would be best if she could realize her mistake and admit it to the elders in the family."
"It would be best if she could kneel down and admit her mistake." Yu Jingli said, this way his father would probably not mind the matter anymore.
The three cousins talked to themselves, and Gao Sheng and others listened, looking at them with some sympathy.
They stopped drinking immediately, paid the bill and left the pub.
After leaving the pub, Wu Shouzi asked, "Should we tell Boss Li about this?"
"We have to tell her," Gao Sheng said. "Even if we don't tell her, those people can't do anything to her. It's better for us to sell her."
The others nodded, all agreeing that this made sense.
They didn't think that if the yamen runners came, Yu Li would be like ordinary people, too scared to take action. She might even dare to hit the yamen runners.
Of course, she wouldn't beat him up in the county town, she could beat him up outside the county town, and she would even threaten to castrate him...
Thinking of this, they couldn't wait to tell Yu Li about it.
After Yu Li learned about this from Gao Sheng and the others, he was indeed very calm. He just glanced at them and said, "I know about this."
Gao Sheng glanced at her cautiously and asked, "Boss Li, what are you going to do?"
This is a common name used by people like them in the market, and they would never call someone "girl" in a fancy way.
In fact, they wanted to call her Yu Lao Da. In their hearts, Yu Li was too scary, so they had to recognize him as the boss. But calling her Yu Lao Da sounded like calling her uncle, so she didn't let them call her that.
They changed their name to Li Lao Da.
Yu Li glanced at them and didn't say what to do. He told them to work well and not to worry about these things.
After watching her leave, Gao Sheng and the others looked at each other.
"How about we keep an eye on the yamen runner named Zhu, who is a relative of the Chen family. If anything happens, report to Boss Li at any time?" Skinny Wu suggested. Although he was thin, he was always smart and had a lot of ideas.
Everyone agreed that this was an opportunity to please Yu Li and should not be missed.
If they please her, she will be more magnanimous in the future and no longer care about what they did in the past. She should not always want to kill them, right?
This threat has always been hanging over their heads, and they have not forgotten it.
-
Yu Li didn't take what Gao Sheng and the others said to heart. He was just an ordinary yamen runner. Not to mention that he just wanted to scare her, even if he wanted to find a reason to teach her a lesson, it depended on whether he had the ability to do so.
There are thousands of ways to destroy a person, and she doesn't need to fight to the death.
She respects human life and does not attack humans easily, but if the other party insists on making things difficult for her, she will have no choice but to destroy that person.
Anyway, as long as the other person is alive, it doesn't matter how he or she lives.
Yu Li went back to the village after shopping as usual.
In the evening, the Fu family was having dinner when suddenly there was a knock on the door.
Zhou opened the door and saw that it was Yu Yin who had just left. She was pale and frightened. She was startled and asked, "Yin, what's wrong with you? What happened?"
Yu Li heard the noise and walked out from the main room.
When she saw Yu Li, the tears in Yu Yin's eyes fell.
She cried and said, "Sister, something happened to my little sister..."
