"Hello, passengers. Welcome to this train…”
On the train heading south, Xiang Yingxiong leaned back in his chair with a tired expression. Luo Fei, who was beside him, had already begun to snore. Li Zongdao, who was opposite him, frowned as if he had something on his mind.
"Zongdao, what are you thinking about?" Xiang Yingxiong asked.
"Brother Hero, are we really okay?”
Xiang Yingxiong smiled bitterly." It's fine. It's already happened anyway. Besides, Yan Peng is not a kind man. He deserves to die."”
Li Zongdao still had lingering fears about what happened that night. That guy killed people without blinking, as if he was killing animals. " Brother Hero," Li Zong said," what are your plans next? We're not familiar with the southerners here."”
" I'll take it one step at a time," Xiang Yingxiong said." I've always believed that there's always a way out. I, Xiang Yingxiong, won't give up so easily."”
The scenery outside the window was very pleasant, but this did not change the anxiety in Xiang Yingxiong's heart at all. He looked at the rows of green cherry blossoms in the distance and did not know when he would return.
In Beiping, Liu Weidong had been discharged from the hospital. After asking Dongfang about Xiang Yingxiong, Liu Weidong smiled and said,""If it really is a dragon, it can overturn rivers and seas no matter where it goes.”
"Big brother, where are we going now?" Dongfang asked.”
Liu Weidong rolled down the window gently and lit a cigarette.""Yan City."
Yan City was located in the south of the Central Plains. The land was fertile and surrounded by clear mountains and rivers. Many tourist enthusiasts would use this place as a resting place. On the way to Salt City, Bai Rubing, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, couldn't help but turn around and ask,""Big brother, what are we doing in Yan City?”
"You'll know when you get there." Liu Weidong smiled.”
Bai Rubing pursed his lips and turned back to look at the windshield.""I really don't know when I'll be able to save Father. He must have suffered a lot.”
The car stopped at the entrance of a hotel. Liu Weidong looked at Anna and said,""You guys rest first. I'll walk around.”
"Let Dongfang follow you." Anna said.
" Don't worry." Liu Weidong shook his head." No one here will want to kill me for the time being."”
Although Liu Weidong insisted, Dongfang still chose to follow him secretly. After all, in Dongfang's opinion, Liu Weidong would not be able to detect his existence.
Arriving at the most prosperous pedestrian street in Yan City, Liu Weidong strolled aimlessly. On the street, many hawkers were shouting. All kinds of local snacks emitted a tempting fragrance. It was now past seven o'clock in the evening, which was the time when the pedestrian street had the highest traffic. Liu Weidong walked to a bench by the street and sat down. He lit a cigarette and fixed his eyes on a fruit stall.
The fruit seller was a middle-aged woman in her forties. The woman's money-making tools were an old cart and some scattered fruits. The woman shouted at the people passing by the stalls from time to time, but very few people stopped. After a while, a few men in black coats suddenly came in front of the woman. The leader was wearing white gloves. He pointed at the woman and shouted angrily,"Damn it, are you not afraid of death?”
Before the woman could speak, a few men beside her overturned the cart with fruits. The scattered fruits fell to the ground and were quickly trampled into pieces. Seeing this scene, many people would think that the city enforcement officers were enforcing the law, but that was not the case. These people did not have any obvious law enforcement symbols on their bodies and looked more like street thugs.
"Dismantle the car! How dare you come here!" As soon as the leader gave the order, a few of his subordinates immediately took out iron pipes and other weapons from their bodies and quickly cut the cart into pieces. The whole process lasted less than three minutes. After these people finished dismantling the car, they left. The woman did not say a word from the beginning to the end. She just stood there with a pale face. The passers-by were still there. No one cared about what had just happened here.
The woman squatted down and rummaged through the pile of crushed fruits to find some leftovers that could still be sold. Liu Weidong exhaled a mouthful of smoke and was about to get up when he suddenly heard a curse coming from not far away.
"F * ck you, are you courting death?!”
A big man wearing white gloves was holding a steel pipe and glaring at a young man. The young man was holding a shovel used to cut sugar cane in his hand. He stared at these guys nervously and angrily. The burly men surrounded the young man in the middle, and the atmosphere was very hot. Many passers-by retreated. Many people took out their phones to take photos, ready to upload them online and share them with others.
"F * ck, are you courting death? Do you know whose territory this is?”The leader shouted.
The young man blushed and said," What right do you have to destroy my stall? I didn't break the law. Others can do it, but why can't I?!"”
"Third Brother, stop talking nonsense with him!" The subordinate urged, and the leader's eyes lit up. "Hit him!"
With an order, the burly men grabbed their weapons and attacked the young man. The young man held the spatula in his hand and resisted with all his might. However, in the end, two fists were no match for four hands, and he was quickly knocked to the ground. The iron rod fell on the young man's body like rain. The young man hugged his head and let out a painful roar. After a series of strikes, the young man was covered in blood. He curled up and trembled. The young man called Third Brother spat and scolded,"F * ck you, this is just a warning. If there's a next time, I'll take your life!”
No one offered a helping hand, and no police appeared. It did not seem surprising that these people smashed the stall owners in broad daylight and beat them up. The onlookers dispersed and everyone continued to shop because these things had nothing to do with them.
The young man on the ground tried his best to sit up straight. Blood had already dyed half of his face red. Although it was extremely painful, his stubborn eyes did not change at all.
"Are you alright?"
A man's voice was heard. The young man raised his head and saw the man handing him a snow-white tissue. The young man didn't take it. He just slowly got up to clean up the mess.
Liu Weidong smiled." These things are all broken. They're useless. Besides, you're injured. You should go to the hospital for treatment immediately."”
"It doesn't seem to be your business."”
"You've lost a lot of blood," Liu Weidong said."If you don't take care of it, I'm afraid you'll be in trouble."”
Without waiting for Liu Weidong to finish, the young man felt a wave of dizziness in his head, and then he lost consciousness. When the young man woke up, the first thing he saw was a lamp hanging from the ceiling. The surroundings were very quiet, but there was obviously the aura of another person.
"You're awake. Don't move around. The doctor has examined you. Although your injuries are not serious, you have a slight concussion.”
"It's you."
"Yes, it's me. I haven't introduced myself yet. My surname is Liu. My name is Liu Weidong. What's your name?"
The young man hesitated for a moment. He was sure that Liu Weidong had sent him to the hospital.
"Hehe, don't worry, I have no ill intentions.”Liu Weidong had a relaxed smile on his face, which made the young man let down his guard.
"My name is Taiming." The young man said weakly.
" Alright." Liu Weidong nodded and said," Have a good rest first. I'll go buy some food."”Liu Weidong stood up and walked to the door of the ward. He saw Dongfang leaning against the wall.
"Big brother, are you being kind again?”
Liu Weidong didn't find Dongfang's teasing funny. Instead, he said,""Ask Anna to check on him. I'll go out and buy some food.”
