"I finally found you!"
Jiang Yue was hugged tightly by him, as if he wanted to rub her into his bones and blood. And the two cotton coats of the same style, one large and one small, were placed at my feet.
The straw hat slipped off, she turned the tip of the knife downward, hugged him back, buried her face in his chest, her voice choked with sobs, "Jiang Nian, you are finally here."
She really felt like she hadn't seen him for a long time, and she couldn't stand missing him like this.
Jiang Nian's frantically beating heart finally had room to breathe. If he couldn't find anyone again, he would go crazy.
Holding her face with both hands, his voice trembled when he saw the wound on her forehead, "Yueyue, you are injured!"
Before Jiang Yue could explain, the old man over there was so angry that he was already going crazy. That was his little wife!
The boss is not that stupid. He saw the powerful knife in her hand and now there is such a strong man. Unexpectedly, she actually has a husband, and he is still alive.
He whistled a few times, and a dozen young and middle-aged men and women ran out of the village, armed with swords, guns and sticks. They were instantly surrounded.
The third child became anxious and shouted at the man, "Let her go, that's my wife!"
Then he said, "Little lady, as long as you stay and be my bride, I beg my elder brother to let him go."
Jiang Nian turned his head suddenly, and the redness in his eyes became more and more intense. He let go of the person in his arms and said in a cold tone, "What did you say?"
The third child still wanted to shout, but saw a gust of wind rushing towards the door.
With a thick "click", his neck was broken by a punch and he fell to the ground.
Jiang Nian knelt down on one knee and made a fist with his right hand. His eyes were fierce and he punched one after another. He didn't stop until his skull was shattered and his brains burst out.
His eyes were half-lidded, his fists hanging by his sides, blood flowing down his face, and his voice holding back the rage.
"she is mine!"
The woman was frightened by the madman, covered her mouth with her hands, and screamed with shock and fear in her eyes. The surrounding accomplices were frightened when they saw this tragic situation, and they did not kill in such a way.
This was so fast that the bearded boss took a moment to react, "Third brother!"
He rushed up with a knife and slashed at Jiang Nian.
Jiang Nian was not afraid at all, and was faster than him. He knocked the person to the ground in a few blows with just his fists. The hatchet was also kicked away, and he lay on the ground without daring to move.
He looked at the woman beside him with murderous intent in his eyes. The woman fell to her knees and said, "I, I was wrong! Please forgive me!"
Jiang Nian didn't believe what these people said, so he kicked the woman away until she lay motionless on the ground.
The group of people who besieged Jiang Yue were also brought down by her. He didn't kill anyone, but he didn't make them feel better either. There were many wounds on his body and blood flowed like rivers.
They put down their weapons and knelt on the ground begging for mercy.
Jiang Nian went over, put his arm around her shoulders, took the knife from her hand, and pointed it at those people.
At this time, the old man in the wooden house came out tremblingly.
He cannot see, but his ears and nose are very sensitive.
The thick smell of blood made his hands and feet weak. Perhaps he knew that the other party was a good person, so he boldly said, "My dear lady, can you help save the villagers?"
Jiang Nian was on guard, thinking that this person was also the other party's accomplice. Jiang Yue pressed down his hand and asked the old man, "Aren't these people from the village?"
He shook his head, "These people are bandits. They came to the village a few days ago and tied up the villagers in the ancestral hall at the end of the village. They wanted to ask if they had food..."
In other words, he was a blind old man who really didn't have much to gain, so he let him go without arresting him.
Jiang Yue contacted Wu Shi and heard what the two people said. Maybe the people in the village were refusing to speak, so they hadn't been killed yet.
She herded all the people together, and then they all walked to the ancestral hall at the end of the village.
There were more than 40 people, old and young, in the ancestral hall. They were all tied up with strips of cloth stuffed in their mouths. When he saw the bandits entering the house from outside the door, his already sallow complexion turned uglier, and he was trembling with fear.
Jiang Yue and the other two supported the old man and walked behind them.
The bandits were wounded and covered in blood, and they knelt aside waiting to be punished.
The villagers were confused by this scene.
Jiang Yue took a knife and opened the ropes that tied the villagers' hands and feet.
The old man said tremblingly, "These two are good people, they have come to save us."
The villagers were obviously familiar with the old man, and they were very happy when they heard that they were finally saved!
The old and weak women and children huddled together and cried, while the men rushed forward and vented their anger on the bandits with gritted teeth.
Some kicked them with their feet, some hit them with their fists, and some beat them with wooden sticks.
"Telling you to do evil! You are really beasts!"
"My wife was forced to death by you! She is worse than an animal!"
"And my dad, he was scared to death by you! He is really worse than a beast!"
"Beat them to death! Beat my son until he is no longer human!"
"..."
Screams, wailings, and begging for mercy mixed together, and the ancestral hall instantly became filled with darkness. In the end, the old and weak women and children rushed forward to beat the people, and the scene turned into a mess.
Jiang Yue noticed the hot gaze and turned her head. Jiang Nian kept staring at her. She smiled, took Jiang Nian's hand, and clasped their fingers together.
After struggling for a while, the sky was getting dark again.
She looked outside and saw that the moderate rain had turned into drizzle, like thin silver threads.
A middle-aged man limped over, with bruises on his face. He must have been interrogated by the bandits.
He bowed deeply towards Jiang Yue and the two of them, "I am the village chief, my surname is He. Thank you two for saving our whole village!"
The others also gathered around and thanked them.
Jiang Yue didn't say much, she just asked, "We're probably going to stay overnight tonight. I wonder who the owner of the fourth slate house is?"
Village Chief He looked gloomy, "That house belongs to my uncle's family, but they were lost in the natural disaster long ago. The house is well built, so my wife and husband can live there with peace of mind."
After Jiang Yue thanked the village chief, the two returned to the house.
As for what to do with those bandits, she didn't really care.
The key to the courtyard door was found from the woman. Jiang Yue looked at several rooms, and finally chose the cabin where she had slept.
After entering the house, Jiang Yue took off her straw hat and raincoat, which were especially heavy after being soaked in water.
Jiang Nian hugged her tightly from behind, his hot breath blowing on her neck.
Jiang Yue touched his head. Both of them were covered in water, and puddles formed where they stood.
She turned around and touched the belt of his clothes, "Take off your wet clothes, don't get sick."
"Also, what's going on with your left hand? Show me."
