Ye Xingchen thought for a moment. According to the information that Zhao Hao had obtained as well as the information that Lin Sijia had heard, it seemed that other than Zheng Huaqiang and his group, there was only Huang Tianfang and his subordinates left.
âEh, we donât have to kill all of them. Those who are willing to submit to us, test if they are sincere. If they are sincere, then taking one person in will give you a reward.â
Ye Xingchen was not a murderous demon. Compared to killing people, Ye Xingchen actually wanted to eliminate those hidden dangers and expand his power.
If he wanted to be safe, other than becoming stronger, he also needed to have enough power to trust his subordinates.
Ye Xingchen did not want to experience the feeling of being shot in the back again.
Moreover, those rewards were nothing. His space was big enough. Even the resources he plundered later were enough to support them. The stuff he plundered later was not worth much, so he could give it to them.
âLetâs see if theyâre willing to work for me. If theyâre willing to submit to me, 1 wonât mistreat any of them.â
Although people were selfish, there were also people with good character. Zhao Hao and Lin Sijia were one of them.
But even so, with such deep snow, if they hadnât used wooden planks to pave the ground step by step, they probably wouldnât have been able to walk far.
As for taking the initiative to attack, at most, it would be for a few nearby districts.
Li Qiang and Wang Wei straightened their backs after they got the permission. After the food was distributed and the instructions were given, Ye Xingchen told them to go home.
Looking at the backs of the group of people leaving, Lin Sijia suddenly felt a little scared. She couldnât help but step forward and hold Ye Xingchenâs arm.
â1 donât know why, but 1 keep feeling like thereâs something staring at us from behind. My back is getting creeped out.â
Ye Xingchen reached out and patted the back of Lin Sijiaâs hand gently, signaling her not to be nervous. However, before Zhao Hao could walk far, a sinister voice suddenly sounded from the side.
âYe Xingchen, I want you to pay with your life for my family!!!â
As soon as the voice came out, Ye Xingchen was so scared that his entire body tensed up. He hurriedly pulled his arm out of Lin Sijiaâs arms and pulled out the gun from his waist.
The voice was very close to them. They didnât know how this person hid under the blind spot of the surveillance camera outside Ye Xingchenâs house under the watchful eyes of everyone. Ye Xingchen and Lin Sijia were about to turn around and return to the house when the man suddenly held a bloody kitchen knife and slashed at Ye Xingchen.
Lin Sijia was shocked by this sudden change. She screamed and was pushed away by Ye Xingchen. The kitchen knife brushed past Lin Sijiaâs head and almost hit her.
Ye Xingchen fell in the opposite direction, but the unkempt man reacted very quickly. He raised his kitchen knife and waved it at Ye Xingchen.
Fortunately, there were often people coming to Ye Xingchenâs house, so the snow at the door was stepped on. Otherwise, he would have fallen into the snow.
Zhao Hao, who hadnât gone far ahead, heard Lin Sijiaâs scream. He immediately abandoned Li Anran and the child and turned back the way he came. He wasnât slow, but it was really difficult to exert strength in the snow.
Ye Xingchen rolled to the side and took out his pistol, pointing it at the delirious man.
At this time, Ye Xingchen had already made up his mind and was about to shoot that person.
Unexpectedly, when that person slashed over, an iron rod suddenly stretched out from behind Ye Xingchen and went straight for the kitchen knife.
With a crisp bang, Zhao Haoâs figure dashed out from behind Ye Xingchen. Ye Xingchen was stunned for a moment when he saw this. In the next moment, he reacted, raised his pistol, and retreated to the side.
It was also at this moment that Ye Xingchen finally recognized who this filthy man was. It was actually Liu Qilong, who had disappeared for a long time!
He wasnât on the list that Zhao Hao had compiled. Ye Xingchen hadnât seen him when he had been distributing food for the past few days, so he had long thought that Liu Qilong was dead.
Who knew that he was still so tenacious and alive?!
After seeing who it was, Ye Xingchen instantly heaved a sigh of relief. He had thought that another enemy had sneaked in, but it turned out to be an old acquaintance.
Ye Xingchen put away his pistol and took out an iron pipe. He didnât need to waste his precious bullets to deal with Liu Qilong. A few sticks were enough.
Liu Qilong couldnât beat Zhao Hao at all, but he seemed to have gone crazy and was hacking everywhere. Even Zhao Hao was at a loss, and could only passively face him. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âBrother Zhao, be careful. Duck.â
After Ye Xingchen finished speaking, he took advantage of the moment when Zhao Hao moved to the side to push his rod against Liu Qilongâs stomach.
Liu Qilong grunted. He was a little unsteady from Ye Xingchenâs push. He fell backward, and his hand couldnât hold his kitchen knife due to the pain.
Zhao Haoâs reaction was also very fast. He stretched out his leg and hurriedly kicked Liu Qilongâs dirty kitchen knife far away.
Ye Xingchen raised the iron rod and smashed it onto Liu Qilongâs shoulder.
âKacha!â
A crisp sound rang out, and Liu Qilongâs pig-like cry rang out. The sound of bones breaking was very clear, and Liu Qilongâs entire body was in so much pain that he rolled around in the snow. However, Zhao Haoâs foot had stepped on his chest and stopped him.
âYou, you will die a horrible death! Iâm, Iâm going to kill you! Avenge my familyâs lives!â
Ye Xingchen struck again, dislocating both of Liu Qilongâs arms.
Behind him, Lin Sijia was so frightened that her face turned pale. She leaned against the wall and sat on the ground, panting heavily. Her eyes were fixed on the person lying on the ground.
âUh, what is going onâ¦â
Lin Sijiaâs legs trembled as she supported herself against the wall. She was extremely afraid. She trembled as she walked towards Ye Xingchen. Now, only by standing beside Ye Xingchen could she feel at ease.
âDo you still recognize him? Itâs Liu Qilong. Didnât you bandage his sonâs wounds before?â
Ye Xingchen stared coldly at Liu Qilong who was lying on the ground. Liu Qilong was still lying on the ground and howling loudly. âYe Xingchen, you deserve to die! You deserve to die! You really deserve to die!â
Ye Xingchen was more or less impatient. He listened to Liu Qilong repeatedly say that he deserved to die and thought about it. He thought that he hadnât done anything to Liu Qilong.
âTell me, why do you want to kill me?â
Ye Xingchen pulled Lin Sijia and took another step forward. He raised his hand and broke Liu Qilongâs leg. In such cold weather, the human body was really very fragile.
A painful howl rang out once again. Liu Qilong glared at Ye Xingchen like a mad dog.
âYou clearly have so much food, why donât you give me some? You clearly have so much medicine, why donât you give it to me!â
