Su Muyan stared at the basket of steamed buns that had just been steamed in front of the shop, a little puzzled: "No, boss, your basket of buns has just been baked, so you won't sell them anymore?"
The boss waved his hand and closed the stall a lot faster: "What's wrong, big sister, can't I eat these steamed buns by myself?"
"Boss, that's not what I meant." Su Muyan defended, "I'm just curious. It's still light out today, why are everyone starting to close their stalls? Is there something going on?"
After the bun shop owner packed up his things, he finally raised his eyes and looked at Su Muyan: "Sister, you are a stranger, so you have to know... It's not a big deal, it's just that the overlord Laoshizi brought people to cause trouble again. Well, it seems we can’t do business today!”
After that, the boss pushed a cart with a basket of fragrant buns and other vendors and ran home.
Overlord? Is he the gangster in the town who forcibly collects protection money?
Out of curiosity, Su Muyan glanced in the opposite direction where the vendors were fleeing.
In the center of the street, the leader of the man was wearing a green robe. He looked like he had a nose and eyes. He was holding a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth and walked in a carefree manner. He must be the "Laushizi Overlord" mentioned by the bun shop owner.
"The Overlord of Laoshizi" was followed by four or five strong men, all of whom were his younger brothers.
The strong men ranged in height from short to tall, but they all had one thing in common, that is, they all had ferocious faces, which were perfect for being used as thugs.
I don’t know what happened, but the “Laoshizi Overlord” and his younger brothers are not collecting protection money now. At this moment, they formed a circle. Judging from their movements, they should be beating up someone... ..
"Poor, pathetic, how did that child get targeted by those bullies?"
"Yes, yes, I heard that he fled here and there is no elder around him, oops..."
"Oh my God, the attack was so harsh. Isn't it possible that such a small child will be beaten to death?"
...
From the mouths of the onlookers, Su Muyan learned that the person who was beaten was a child.
Wait, kid?
vocal, kid!
Su Muyan was shocked: a group of big men were actually beating up a defenseless, thin child?!
How shameless!
Who can bear this?
Su Muyan immediately picked up a few stones from the ground and attached spiritual power to the stones. Then she ejected the stones and hit the attacker's head one by one.
"Who is it? How dare you hit me!"
The green-robed "overlord" was the first to react, glaring fiercely at the onlookers and clamoring to find the person who beat him.
Su Muyan walked out of the crowd. Since she dared to do something, she naturally dared to do it.
"It's me, my aunt. What's going on? How shameless are you for a group of grown men to bully a child? You're still called a bully. I think calling you a bastard is just as good."
A cry of "son of a bitch" caused the crowd of onlookers to laugh, and the green-robed "overlord" suddenly turned a little darker.
When he saw that Su Muyan was just a woman and she was still wearing white clothes, he said with disdain: "Little girl, haven't your adults ever taught you to stay out of other people's business? Do you know who I am? How dare you meddle in my business?" , you dare to call yourself aunt in front of me?!"
The green-robed "overlord" said while winking at the younger brother beside him.
After receiving the signal, several strong men stepped forward and surrounded Su Muyan.
Su Muyan glanced at the child on the ground. The child was holding his head and huddled up. He was small and trembling all over. The large and messy shoe prints on his already dirty rags were particularly dazzling.
Looking at the scene in front of her, Su Muyan felt as if her heart had been tugged by someone, as if some forgotten important scene flashed through her mind.
"Excuse me, what mistake did that child make?"
Su Muyan asked, her hands hidden in her sleeves clenching unconsciously, but she still kept smiling. After all, her senior brother had reminded her to avoid conflicts with mortals.
