"It's Lanzhen!"
"Oh my god! It really is Lanzhen, Lanzhen is back!"
Sister-in-law Tonghua threw down the carrying pole she was carrying and collapsed at Li Lanzhen's feet, sobbing loudly, "Sister, you're finally back! Please save the stream! They've tied the stream water up and hung it from a tree, forcing us to use bells to exchange for it! Waaah, sister, please save the stream! If we're too late, it might... it might..."
"Don't cry! Take all the children back inside. Eldest, carry your grandparents inside, close the door, and don't come out. Leave this to me; I'll save Xishui."
Then she took out a stun gun and handed it to Han Mingjiang, whispering, "Second brother, watch out. Whoever comes up, press this dark spot, shove it into their stomach, and then let go. Got it?"
Han Mingjiang had just seen Li Lanzhen's big eyes and knew that the thing she was holding was very powerful. He was very envious. Now that Li Lanzhen had given him one, he carefully took it and held it tightly in his hand. This was a life-saving weapon.
There are many people in the village. Without this powerful guy, we probably wouldn't be able to rescue Grandma's family, and the three of them would be in danger.
Just as they were ready, three men rushed towards them. Li Lanzhen reacted quickly and took down two of them.
Han Mingjiang had just gotten his hands on it and wasn't very skilled yet, but just as the man's fist was about to hit his face, Han Mingjiang reacted quickly and shoved it into the man's chest. The big man immediately collapsed to the ground and didn't move.
The surrounding villagers were stunned and stood frozen in place, staring in terror at the black stick in Li Lanzhen's hand.
Li Lanzhen looked at the crowd with a cold smile, her gaze fixed on an old man in the crowd. This man was the village chief of Yejiawan, her great-great-grandfather.
Feeling uncomfortable under her gaze, the village chief stepped forward and adopted the air of an elder and village chief towards Li Lanzhen: "Lanzhen, you kill without blinking an eye. You've killed four people on your return trip. As the village chief, I must uphold justice and send you to the authorities. However, you must first hand over the murder weapon in your hand, and I will put in a good word for your family with the county magistrate."
"Heh, are you blind? You hit my dad, hit my mom, hung up my brother, kidnapped my niece to take back to your stupid son as a wife, and bullied my sister-in-law. Where were you, you old bastard? Why didn't you come out to uphold justice? You still want the stick in my hand? You're dreaming."
The village chief was still reprimanded by Li Lanzhen and hadn't quite recovered. In his mind, no one in Yejiawan dared to challenge him, and whatever he said was law.
Today, he stood up and said this because he felt that Li Lanzhen should obediently hand over the black stick in her hand to him, since he had his eye on it.
The third son is the manager of a large restaurant in the prefectural city. He came back yesterday and said that in a few days, his family will be going north to escape the famine, along with the restaurant manager's family.
Fleeing from famine without a good weapon to protect oneself can be deadly, so Li Lanzhen used a stun gun to knock down three people, especially the burly Da Yan, who was easily taken down with a single blow.
This is a good thing; I must get it.
When he finally realized what was happening, he pointed at Li Lanzhen and said, "You, you, you, how utterly disrespectful! It seems your parents really didn't raise you well, ruining your reputation and forcing you to marry someone from another place. You're a jinx!"
He kept talking, but Li Lanzhen ignored him completely. She kept an eye on the crowd because she couldn't find Big Eyes' younger brother, Niu Yan, in it.
He was an absolutely wicked guy. Back then, when the original owner was about to get married, she went up the mountain to cut grass and was caught by him. If the original owner hadn't desperately torn off half of his ear, he probably would have succeeded.
Today, I must avenge the original owner of this body!
Arriving at the original owner's family home, Li Lanzhen felt her blood boiling. She didn't know if it was the original owner's emotions or her own empathy, but in any case, the Li Lanzhen from the future was going to settle accounts with the family for the years of bullying and unfair treatment they had suffered!
After scanning the crowd, Li Lanzhen handed another stun gun to Han Mingjiang, who was standing next to her: "Give this baton to your brother and teach him how to use it. Then, come out and let's beat up the bully who harassed your grandfather's family."
Han Mingjiang nodded, then took the stun gun and went to find Han Minghai.
Li Lanzhen kept a close watch on the crowd, not daring to relax her guard for even a moment.
Suddenly, an old woman rushed in from behind the crowd, crying and cursing Li Lanzhen's ancestors for eight generations.
Just as she was about to run up to Li Lanzhen and raise her hand to hit her, Li Lanzhen raised her electric baton and struck her hard in the mouth. Immediately, several yellow teeth, stained with blood, flew out of her mouth.
"Whose animal is this that wasn't properly leashed? It ran here and is spewing filth everywhere, the stench is unbearable."
This time, Li Lanzhen didn't turn the battery up high, so she was only dizzy and didn't faint. She lay on the ground, twitching a few times, and mumbled curses at Li Lanzhen through her mouth full of blood.
Li Lanzhen wasn't going to tolerate her. She went up to the finger that the other woman was pointing at and slapped it with an electric baton, breaking it instantly.
“I hate it when people point at me. Try pointing at me again, and I won’t hesitate to interrupt you.”
The old woman rolled on the ground, shouting and cursing, but dared not approach Li Lanzhen who was standing there.
The crowd was silent. Everyone was stunned by the black stick in Li Lanzhen's hand and even more frightened by her ruthlessness.
A commotion suddenly broke out in the quiet crowd.
"You dare break my mother's fingers? I'll stomp your cowardly brother's head on fire!"
Li Lanzhen looked over and saw a scene that she would never forget!
All that could be seen was Niu Yan pulling at a person lying on the ground; this person was none other than Li Lanzhen's younger brother, Li Xishui.
Li Xishui's hands and body were tightly bound together with straw rope, wrapped around and around like a mummy, with a rope around her neck. At this moment, Niu Yan pulled on this rope and came toward her.
The stream's face had turned a deep purplish-red, its shoes were nowhere to be seen, its feet were covered in blood, its face was so swollen that it was unrecognizable, and the blood at the corner of its mouth had dried.
The hatred in Li Lanzhen's heart surged, burning her like fire.
"Eldest brother, second brother, guard the yard well, don't let a single dog in!"
As he spoke, he rushed over, but before he could even see what was happening, he fell to the ground with a thud, his body hitting the dust and kicking up clouds of dirt.
Still not satisfied, Li Lanzhen didn't turn on the stun gun. Instead, she swung it around and slammed it into Da Yan's body again and again. With each blow, she felt a little lighter.
Seeing Li Lanzhen's bloodshot eyes and fierce appearance, the villagers standing there seemed to be under a spell, frozen in place.
"Second brother, drag this dead dog into the yard. Eldest brother, carry your uncle into the house and hand him over to your aunt."
Li Lanzhen made the arrangements, her eyes fixed on the crowd.
Watching his younger brother being carried inside, he said to the village chief, "Village chief, tell Da Yan's family to bring silver and grain to ransom him. If they don't come, I will kill these two beasts to rid the people of this scourge."
As for whose these two people belonged, the same applies: bring silver and grain to ransom them.
After looking around at the crowd, he slowly said, "Now, anyone who has ever bullied our family, whether secretly or openly, taken from our family, eaten our family's food for free, or robbed our family like a bandit, go home and return it to me. I'll wait for the time it takes to drink a cup of tea. If you don't come, I'll go to your door to collect the debt!"
The last two words were slowly uttered by Li Lanzhen through gritted teeth, her eyes filled with a murderous ferocity.
The crowd was silent for a moment, then immediately dispersed like a tidal wave, leaving no one behind.
