Chapter 378 Sneak Attack



At this moment, in our room, besides Wang Qing and Wang Hong, there are also Monkey, Lin Que, Man Jing, Xue Dong, Jiang Man, and us.

Logically speaking, we are all trained fighters and should not be at a disadvantage in a fight with them. However, in reality, there was a huge difference in skill level because all of them were armed.

I snatched a knife from the other party and just put it down on one person when I was immediately surrounded and beaten by the crowd, and soon I was forced into a corner.

One of the attackers used a stick to deflect my knife, while the other seized the opportunity and stabbed me in the abdomen.

"Bang!"

At the critical moment, Jiang Man rushed to my side and kicked the other person's ankle. She was then hit on the shoulder with a stick, and another person raised a knife and slashed at her.

"Pfft!"

I raised my arm and slashed the man's wrist with a sweeping motion, kicking him back. Then I turned around and protected Jiang Man.

"Bang bang bang!"

Immediately afterwards, I heard a muffled thud in my back, accompanied by unbearable pain. I didn't know if it was a knife wound or something that had hit me.

"Bastards! I'll kill you all!"

When Manjing saw that I was being attacked, he picked up a table from the room and used it to protect himself, then charged into the crowd like a tank.

"Crackling and popping!"

Seeing Manjing's movements, the opposing group rained down knives and clubs, and he scattered them into pieces.

Wang Qing seized the opportunity and shouted to Wang Hong, "Junior sister, use poison!"

Upon hearing Wang Qing's roar, Wang Hong took out a brocade pouch from her bosom and flung it towards the crowd.

Upon hearing Wang Qing's roar, one of the opposing soldiers tensed up, shouting, "Retreat!"

"Whoosh!"

Amidst the swirling green powder, our attackers quickly vanished without a trace.

"Don't run!"

Manjing saw those people fleeing and chased after them with wide eyes, but they closed the door first.

"Manjing, stop chasing! Be careful, they might have an ambush!"

At that moment, Lin Que shouted from behind, and then collapsed to the ground.

"Linque!"

I saw that Lin Que was covered in blood, and I was immediately shocked. I ran to his side.

Get out of the way!

Seeing Lin Que's condition, Wang Qing pulled me aside, took out a pill, and put it into Lin Que's mouth. He then lifted Lin Que's clothes to take a look and said with a solemn expression, "His abdomen has been pierced. His condition is critical. It needs to be stitched up immediately!"

"Duan Tao, don't move! You're injured too!"

Wang Hong then walked over to me, took out a porcelain bottle from her person, and poured its contents onto me.

"hiss!"

The sharp pain in my back made me gasp, but within seconds my back went numb and I could no longer feel the pain.

The fight just now lasted only a dozen seconds, but the enemy's attack was extremely rapid, and almost all of us were injured.

Seeing my expression, Jiang Man clenched her fists in anger: "Those bastards from Fengmen Village, didn't they promise to protect everyone's safety? Why didn't they intervene when so many people attacked us today?"

Seeing Lin Que's miserable state, my chest heaved: "This absolutely cannot be left like this. Take Lin Que to the clinic first! Monkey, come with me and demand an explanation from them!"

After I finished speaking, the room was completely silent, without any response.

I looked around and suddenly realized that one of us was missing. I froze: "Where did the monkey go?"

He was just here!

Xue Dong noticed that one of us was missing and his eyes widened in surprise: "I even took a punch for him when we were ambushed just now!"

"Damn it! The monkey's been caught!"

I saw the monkey disappear and quickly ran towards the door.

The streets outside were deserted; those who attacked us had long since vanished, leaving only a folded piece of paper on the ground.

Upon opening it, a line of text was written on it: "To ensure your friend's safety, do not alert Fengmen Village, and await news."

Wang Qing walked over at this moment, and when he saw the line of text above, he frowned: "The other side came prepared. Their attack just now was to capture one of our people! They just didn't know who they were taking before they came, so they wrote this!"

I immediately realized what was going on: "Tianya Hujia has already reacted, which means the person who came is number four from the auction. They couldn't win the competition, so they're trying to snatch it by force! Wang Hong just poisoned them, so we can go to the pharmacy and wait for them to buy the antidote!"

"I didn't poison it, it was just ordinary insect repellent powder."

Wang Hong sighed: "The space here is too confined. If I were to poison them, our own people would also be affected. That's just a way to scare the attackers."

Wang Qing looked at the letter in my hand and asked, "What are your thoughts on this?"

"These people dared to attack us in Fengmen Village; they're clearly a bunch of desperate criminals. If we alert Fengmen Village, Monkey's life might be in danger too!"

I stared intently at Tianya Hujia, who was tethered to the ground by the silk thread: "The other party only knows the mantis stalks the cicada, but doesn't know the oriole behind. He can find us, and we can find him too! Since the other party is playing dirty tricks, let's settle this privately... With your abilities, can you save Lin Que's life?"

"Don't worry, I am a descendant of the Immortal Physician! I'm afraid I don't have the ability to treat cancer, but I definitely have no problem treating external injuries."

Wang Qing knew what I was thinking and patted my arm: "I'll go buy surgical instruments and medicine first. Lin Que has taken my Tianxin Pill, so she won't be in any danger."

After Wang Qing left, Jiang Man came to my side and whispered, "Did you notice anything unusual about what happened today?"

“Something is definitely not right! The people of Fengmen Village have a very strict control over this place. We’ve made such a big commotion, but they haven’t done anything. This is quite unusual.”

Upon hearing Jiang Man's reminder, my expression also turned serious: "Today, we used the 'King of Hell's Tumor' to lure out Qu Xuelin. According to our previous investigation, Qu Xuelin is a super big customer of Fengmen Village, which means that he must have close ties with the higher-ups of Fengmen Village. This means that someone is likely providing him with protection in this matter!"

But the person protecting him definitely isn't the big boss of Fengmen Village, otherwise he wouldn't be negotiating with us in this way. Currently, we can confirm that the fourth person participating in today's auction is one of Qu Xuelin's men! Since he wants to fight us, let's play along! After Lin Que recovers from his injuries, we'll take the initiative and capture this guy first!
