With a determined heart, I kicked the wall hard. I was grateful that houses at this time weren't made of concrete.
"Hey, you two, get in here right now!"
After saying that, he was the first to jump in. At that moment, who cared about anyone else?
Situ Xing looked at his brother: "Brother?"
"Walk!"
Without hesitation, Situ Kong let Situ Xing crawl inside while he followed closely behind. Almost simultaneously with Situ Kong's entry, the car exploded.
Hearing the commotion, the homeowner inside came out, still wearing his clothes. Seeing the damage to his wall, he was instantly furious. Then, seeing the culprit, Xu Qingqing, he was about to explode in anger when he noticed the pistol in her hand. His face paled with terror, and he raised his hands, crouched down, and cried out, "Don't kill me! I'm just an ordinary citizen, I have nothing!"
Xu Qingqing leaned against the wall, holding a nearby table in her hand. After Situ Kong came in last, she quickly blocked the hole to block the heat wave caused by the car explosion outside.
The homeowner had never seen anything like it before and was so frightened that he immediately wet his pants.
After the explosion, many footsteps could be heard outside. Xu Qingqing's eyes darkened slightly. There was such an obvious gap here that the other party could find it at a glance. Moreover, the other party had bombs. If they were trapped here, they would be killed by the bombs.
He could hide in the space and come out after everything was over, but he was afraid that if someone didn't die, he would expose himself. He shifted his attention to the Situ brothers and considered the possibility of knocking them unconscious and throwing them into the space, then coming out after the enemy had run away.
This is unacceptable. How will she explain herself then? And what about the homeowner? It's no wonder people are suspicious. How could someone lead several people to safety amidst so many enemies? Besides, why did she knock several people unconscious? Is there some secret hidden behind this? She can think of all these questions.
Situ Xing noticed that the woman had given them a strange look, and he felt extremely nervous. Could she be trying to use the two brothers as a life-saving measure?
Reaching out, she grabbed her brother's clothes and whispered warily in his ear, "Brother, I noticed that the way that woman was looking at us was strange. I suspect she wants to hand us over to those assassins outside."
Situ Kong patted his head and explained, "Don't overthink it. She would never do that. Your brother has a good eye for people."
The situation was urgent, and Situ Kong didn't have time to explain in detail. He focused all his attention on the outside, listening carefully to the sounds outside. He noticed that the other party's footsteps were obviously lighter, indicating that they had discovered them and were approaching step by step. He gave Xu Qingqing a look.
Xu Qingqing looked around, looking for a place to escape or something useful. There was no courtyard here, and once you stepped out of the gate, you were outside. They were definitely surrounded now. Going out meant death, and hiding here meant death as well.
They are now like trapped beasts in a four-sided water prison, and the other party could eliminate them at any time without lifting a finger.
"Hey! Do you have a window at the back of your house?" Remembering something, Xu Qingqing went to the homeowner's side and asked him in a low voice.
The homeowner shook his head, then seemed to remember something and pointed to the inner room: "I just bought this house recently. I originally wanted to open a window because the back of the house is connected to the yards of other houses. If I opened a window, I was afraid that the children in the back might break the glass or something, so I didn't open one."
Xu Qingqing understood and waved to the two Situ brothers behind her. Situ Kong didn't understand what Xu Qingqing was going to do, but he still quietly led Situ Xing over and squatted down.
Xu Qingqing: "Now we only have one way to go. I'll kick open the back wall in a bit. You guys hurry up and get out of here. We need to get out of this house before they throw the bombs. Once we're out, we'll split up and run for our lives. There are too many of them. If we fight them head-on, we'll just be asking for death. Getting out is the priority."
"good!"
Situ Kong nodded in agreement, and at this point no one asked the homeowner for his opinion.
Outside, the leader waved his hand, ordering his men to surround the house, while he carefully peered through a crack in the window, which was covered by a cloth, making it difficult to see inside.
"Someone, blow it up!"
As soon as he finished speaking, several men smashed the glass, threw in a few bombs, and quickly retreated!
Xu Qingqing, hiding in a corner, heard the explosion from the other side and cursed inwardly. Luckily, she ran fast. On the other side, Situ Kong, with his younger brother Situ Xing, ran inside after separating from Xu Qingqing.
Situ Xing couldn't withstand the intense running and stopped, panting heavily. He simply couldn't run anymore.
Situ Kong glanced at the distance behind him. They weren't far from there, and if the other side didn't notice their escape, they would catch up quickly. He scanned his surroundings, carried his younger brother on his back, and ran in one direction.
"Boss, we don't have it here."
"We haven't found them here either."
The boss's face darkened as he listened to his subordinate's report: "Find them! You must find them, alive or dead. This is Master Qing's order!"
He exhaled the smoke from his mouth, his expression sinister as he looked at the collapsed house. Dozens of his men searched the bodies of the two Situ brothers, but found nothing. He shook his head at his boss.
"Damn it! They must have run away, get them after them!"
After realizing what was happening, he hurriedly led his men to chase after them.
The men found several footprints and reported them to their boss. They followed the footprints forward, but halfway through, they found that the number of footprints in front of them decreased, while footprints appeared in other directions.
"Boss, there are footprints in three directions!"
The leader took a close look, then pointed in a direction: "You few go that way, the rest of you split up and chase after them!"
"Yes, boss!"
Dozens of people split up to chase after them. The leader led half of the men to follow the two pairs of footprints, while the rest followed the leader's instructions.
Xu Qingqing was not far from them. She took out a handful of bamboo sticks, pushed off the walls on both sides with her feet, climbed onto the roof, lay down, pressed her body against the tiles, and quietly peeked out. She saw the enemy splitting up not far away, and a group of people were looking for her.
She then jumped down to reinforce the trap she had dug, covering it with straw she had found and placing small twigs underneath. After checking that everything was in order, she climbed back onto the roof and slowly moved it.
The enemy quickly caught up, but they didn't notice anything unusual on the road ahead. It wasn't until they stepped onto it that they realized something was wrong. By then, it was too late to retreat or tell the others behind them. The tree branch broke and fell down, emitting a heart-wrenching scream. The pit was filled with countless bamboo skewers, piercing their bodies. The remaining four men stared in horror at their brother's horrific state in the pit.
Hearing the screams, Xu Qingqing smiled and jumped down from above them. She plunged a bamboo skewer into the man's kidney and kicked him toward the three people in front of her. With the force of the impact, the people who were already standing at the edge of the pit were quickly impaled by the bamboo skewer, just like the four people in front of them.
Xu Qingqing looked into the pit and exclaimed, "Tsk tsk, how tragic!"
He took out a hook, pulled up the pistols from the eight people, and threw them into the spatial storage.
He then ran in the direction the homeowner had fled, where there were still four enemies to deal with. After all, the homeowner was implicated by him, so there was no reason not to go and save him.
