Chapter 190 - 190 Brutal Beating
190 Brutal Beating
Zhao Wencai was almost scared to death. However, his legs were like heavy weights and he couldn’t move.
At first, Yang Baoshan was still able to cry out, but later on, he only knew how to cover his head and face, not daring to make any more sounds. The only thing he could do was whimper silently.
Zhao Zhan saw that he wasn’t fighting back anymore, so he pulled back his strength and picked him up. “If I see you in the village again, I’ll make sure you can never walk again!”
As he said this, he looked up and glanced in Zhao Wencai’s direction. “You’re part of this too. If this happens again, I’ll take care of both of you!
Zhao Wencai’s face turned ashen, and she sat on the ground defeatedly.
Zhao Zhan threw Yang Baoshan on the ground and went back to the backyard. He didn’t go to the master bedroom immediately. Instead, he washed his hands and face, shook his head, and then strolled into the room.
“Zhao Zhan?” Yue Jiaojiao raised her head and carefully sized him up from head to toe. “Are you hurt? Sorry I was late.”
Zhao Zhan didn’t dare to think too much.
He still had the violent aura that he had used to beat up Yang Baoshan earlier. Now that he saw Yue Jiaojiao, the violent aura dissipated, and the lingering fear in his heart surged up.
Yue Jiaojiao saw him standing at the door in a daze and didn’t move. She walked over and looked up at him.
“Are you okay? Even if you didn’t come back, he wouldn’t be able to gain anything by coming in. Don’t forget that I still have Chengfeng with me.”
Chengfeng’s teeth were very sharp. Even if Yang Baoshan was not beaten up by Zhao Zhan today, he would be bitten by Chengfeng and that mark would follow him around the village.
Hearing his name being mentioned, Chengfeng, who was by their feet, whimpered and circled around them.
Zhao Zhan cast a glance at the little fellow.
“Dashan said that there’s a family in the village that has a new litter of puppies. It just so happens that they’ve finished harvesting the beans and chili, and he wants me to take him to pick one.
“I’ll also take one home and raise it in the backyard. When they’re older, there’ll be someone to guard the house.”
“Have you forgotten that we are going to Hekou County? I’m already worried about what Chengfeng will do after we set off. You know that right?”
Yue Jiaojiao’s brows furrowed in a rare worry. “We can’t bring him along either. Otherwise, the round trip will take at least three to four months. This guy will probably grow to the point where everyone will be afraid of him.”
“There’s a lot of space in the house, so we can keep it at home, ” Zhao Zhan had already made plans. I’ve already given brother Dashan the silver, so he just needs to come over and feed Chengfeng every day.
“If Chengfeng is willing to go out with Dashan, Chengfeng can follow him around the foot of the mountain for exercise.”
Yue Jiaojiao thought for a while, but she couldn’t come up with any other good ideas.
She couldn’t be at ease if she let Chengfeng go back to the mountain.
After talking for a while, Zhao Zhan’s expression finally returned to normal. “I almost finished arranging the things in the village. In the few days that we’re free, I’m going to buy some things to make it more convenient for us to use on the road.”
“There’s no need to go through so much trouble, we can just pack light and simple.”
At this time, there would be no pulley-operated luggage. It would be very hard to carry all kinds of bags on his back. “Before I leave, I’ll go to the Hundred Flavors Restaurant and ask Fang Tianliu if there are any bandits along the way from Wangshan to Hekou County. Safety first, right?”
Even if Zhao Zhan could fight, he couldn’t fight a whole group.
“A few days ago, Fang Tianliu had already sent a letter back to Huai County to ask about the road situation. Their escort agency has been going to the capital for the past few days, so there’s really no one on the way to Hekou County. If we had followed the escort agency, it would have been much safer on the way.”
