Seeing these people, Zhang Yuanqing felt heavy in his heart.
Although the situation this time was not as noisy as the last time under the Dung Beetle Building, Zhang Yuanqing could feel that this level was equally difficult.
Last time, the ignorant masses were incited, but this time it was premeditated.
Their purpose was to cause trouble and take the opportunity to come in and find evidence such as the original white note from Zhou Qi's family to destroy. It's also possible that they came here to take people's lives.
In this place, the awareness of the rule of law may not be that strong. Many people also believe that the law does not punish the public, and feel that if they take advantage of the chaos and kill Zhou Qi, nothing will happen.
Zhang Yuanqing never dared to underestimate the cruelty of human nature. If someone harbors such thoughts, the consequences will be disastrous.
"Lin Ru, you and Brother Zhou stay in the house, I'll go see them!"
Zhang Yuanqing is also willing to take risks. He has never been afraid of trouble, nor does he lack the courage to stand up to others.
Zheng Yao once said that Zhang Yuanqing learned from whomever he followed. From Zhou Qiangbin, he learned his unscrupulous methods and his unscrupulous ferocity to achieve his goals.
However, it is not objective to say that Zhang Yuanqing completely imitated Zhou Qiangbin. There is a ruthlessness in his bones that climbs up from the bottom. This is shaped by the environment in which he grew up. A person from a grassroots background will inevitably have a bit of a reckless attitude.
So facing these people, Zhang Yuanqing had to calm down.
He took off his jacket and threw his shirt aside. He walked out with one arm bare and dragging a wooden stick.
This is a truth that Zhang Yuanqing has known since he was a child. If others are cruel, you should be more cruel than him. When he was a child, he was beaten by Xu Dahunzi's nephew, who led a dozen people to beat him.
Later, Zhang Yuanqing waited for get out of class to end, and when Xu Dabastard's nephew was alone, he found that little bastard to risk his life.
Even later, he was almost strangled to death by Xu Dahunzi. He followed Xu Dahunzi's nephew after school and fought with him several times.
He only had one idea at the time, no matter who hit him, he would hit Xu Dahunzi's nephew, and he would hit him harder every time. Relying on this fierceness, Zhang Yuanqing defeated a boy. Until he graduated from the third grade of junior high school, no gangster in the nearby school dared to provoke him.
Facing these gangsters at this moment, Zhang Yuanqing still did not lose his courage. Braving the cold wind, he walked out slowly.
"Everyone, no matter where your friends are from, coming here as a guest at night, isn't it too welcoming?"
Zhang Yuanqing walked out dragging a wooden stick, which indeed surprised those who were wrapped up.
Both sides are in a very strange state, one side is upright and the other side hides its head and tail.
Zhang Yuanqing's well-developed muscles also have a certain impact in the eyes of these people. When males are together, their strong physique can intimidate others even more.
"We are all ready to go to bed and have taken off our clothes. If you need anything, we will talk about it tomorrow morning. It would be a bit immoral to disturb our sleep so late at night."
Zhang Yuanqing kept five steps away from them. He had jogged back from the town, and his whole body was still hot at this moment. So under the cold wind, you can still faintly see the heat coming out of his body.
"We are from Guozi Village, Yangjia Village, and Xiaolong Village. We are here to find Zhou Qi! Zhou Qi has owed us money for so many years, and we are here today to demand an explanation!"
Someone in the crowd shouted.
When he shouted, it was like sparks igniting the grassland, and everyone else also shouted.
Zhang Yuanqing didn't believe this nonsense: "There's no point in asking for an explanation at night. It's not the New Year's Eve yet. We have to wait until New Year's Eve to ask for the account!"
"Don't listen to this man. Zhou Qi must have escaped. Let's go in and look for him."
"Yes, Zhou Qi must have run away."
I don’t know how many villagers or gangsters there are. Anyway, it must be some people with ulterior motives who are deliberately inciting emotions.
Immediately, someone pushed open the fence and tried to break in.
Zhang Yuanqing held a wooden stick and beat it hard on the ground: "Whoever comes in today, just try with me. I know that some of you are real villagers, and some of you are people with bad intentions who want to incite everyone to cause trouble."
If you have the skills, take off your masks, and my colleague will take pictures of you all inside. Don't think that the law does not punish everyone. If something happens tonight, none of you will be able to escape. "
Zhang Yuanqing's fierce momentum did have a bit of a deterrent effect.
"Zhou Qi hasn't left. You leave the courtyard now. I'll ask Zhou Qi to come out to see you. Get out!"
Zhang Yuanqing raised his stick and pointed at the people in front of him.
Several people were about to hit their noses with sticks and hurriedly backed away. With such a retreat, the momentum that had just begun to rise couldn't help but drop.
"We are all fellow villagers. I know that you borrowed money from Zhou Qi and he has no way to pay you back. Yes, everyone has difficulties, and I can understand it. But think about it, what can you get if you just rush in? .Apart from people with ulterior motives who want to steal some key evidence inside, what else can you steal? Broken pots and urinals?"
Zhang Yuanqing shouted loudly, using his own voice to suppress the sounds of the fire.
Compared with the last time, Zhang Yuanqing has improved. Last time, he still tried to make people calm down. This time, facing so many people, he was still able to tell a reason and try to make sense.
"Or do you want to vent your anger and beat people to death? How much is Zhou Qi's life worth? I asked him to come out and beat him to death for you. You will be relieved. But what about the money? Not only is there no money; Some people are going to jail. Even if we settle the score, will it be worth it?"
Zhang Yuanqing shouted loudly.
Some of the more than thirty people became quiet. Obviously, these people may have been coerced, they were bewitched, and they were used as guns.
Sure enough, those people with ulterior motives shouted: "Don't listen to his nonsense, drag Zhou Qi out. I heard that someone has paid Zhou Qi back hundreds of thousands, and he sent the money to his wife and children." ”
"My child is so hungry that he howls at home, and Zhou Qi's child goes to an aristocratic school."
"Drag him out and make him spit out everyone's money."
"Are there so many of us just decorations that we can't defeat this guy?"
The voices of these people covered Zhang Yuanqing's voice. They were pushing and shoving, crazily raising fire, and inspired by this emotion, they rushed into the yard one after another.
When Zhang Yuanqing saw this, he knew that he could no longer control himself. He couldn't really fight them with a stick, so he had to retreat step by step.
He did not turn around and run for his life. It was like encountering a wild beast in the mountains. Once you turn around, you will be jumped by the wild beast.
So Zhang Yuanqing stepped back step by step. When he was still a few steps away from the house, he suddenly shrank into the house. Now, the only thing in the whole house that has a defensive function is this room.
As soon as the two wooden doors were closed, Zhou Qi and Lin Jin had already brought in broken tables and some wooden sticks to hold the doors shut.
Sure enough, the ferocious attack came as expected. With the three of them holding on to the wooden door with all their strength, the people outside kicked it wildly. Through the gap between the wooden doors, Zhang Yuanqing also saw someone showing a kitchen knife in his hand.
It seems that one of Zhang Yuanqing's two guesses was right. Those are the people who are here to kill you!
