Chapter 496 Kill Them All
As he spoke, he shoved Chen Jianjun, who was standing in front.
The people from Sanqiao Commune immediately retorted: "Fight if you want! We're not afraid of you!"
The two sides started shoving each other, and the atmosphere immediately became tense, as if a fight was about to break out at any moment.
Seeing her grandfather and father being pushed around, Helian Jiao puffed out her cheeks and angrily said, "Grandma, can I kill all these bad people?"
They outnumber us; if a fight breaks out, Grandpa and Dad will definitely suffer.
It's simpler and faster to just kill him directly!
Upon hearing this, Ma Xiulian quickly whispered to comfort him, "My dear, that won't do. Unless they intend to kill someone, you can't just chop people up so easily!"
My precious baby is a little dragon; we mustn't let him commit any evil deeds.
She can't let these barbarians ruin her precious baby.
The little princess's cheeks puffed out even more, and she felt very stifled.
I can't hit them, and I can't even chop them!
Humans are such a hassle!
Seeing her granddaughter was unhappy, Ma Xiulian thought for a moment, then a brilliant idea flashed in her mind. She pointed to a huge apricot tree next to her and said, "Sweetie, we can chop this tree down!"
People can't move, but trees can!
"good!"
Helian Jiao's chubby little face instantly lit up, and her sweet little voice was full of excitement and joy.
Then, with a flick of his finger, a bolt of lightning descended from the sky, striking the crown of the apricot tree with a loud "bang."
The tree was split in two, and the broken pieces fell to the ground.
"ah!!"
Everyone was startled, staring wide-eyed at the charred apricot tree, unable to understand why it had suddenly been struck by lightning when nothing had changed!
"Awooo!"
Big White barked gleefully, "Our little master is angry! You humans are doomed!"
Taking advantage of the situation, Ma Xiulian raised her voice and said, "Look! Your human trafficking is immoral. Even Heaven can't stand it and has sent down divine punishment!"
Upon hearing this, the people in the ravine immediately changed their expressions, looked at each other, and began to whisper among themselves.
"What happened?! This apricot tree has lived for decades, how could it be struck by lightning today?!"
"Exactly! The weather didn't change and it didn't rain heavily, it can't be such a coincidence!"
"Could it really be divine retribution, a warning shot of lightning?"
...
The more ignorant and superstitious people were, the more they became guilty and fearful. They looked up at the sky and began to retreat.
Although the Chen family was also surprised, they thought it best not to take action.
Seeing this, Old Lady Zhang quickly shouted, "She's lying! This is just an accident, a coincidence! Our village has bought so many girls before, and we've never seen God get angry!"
They were afraid the villagers would be scared and stop helping.
What bad luck! The accident just happened when they were buying a baby girl!
The people in the mountain valley thought about it and realized that what Old Lady Zhang said made sense. They offered the mountain god good wine and meat every year!
The mountain god will surely protect them and prevent them from having no descendants.
Thinking this way, I felt more confident and we resumed our confrontation.
Old Mrs. Zhang added fuel to the fire, pointing at Ma Xiulian and cursing loudly, "You old woman, you have no reverence for the gods! Saying such things will offend the heavens! Get out of the village! Don't drag us down with you!"
"Get out! Get out of the village!"
The villagers immediately brandished their weapons and shouted at them to get out.
His eyes were fierce, and his aura was even more frightening than before.
