Chapter 15
The donkey pulled the cart slowly along the mountain road.
It moves at a moderate pace.
It was much faster than when we came here.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Uncle Li who was swinging the whip hard.
His movements were deft and skillful.
By swinging it out, the donkey can feel the force without actually hurting it.
This thing has a very stubborn temper.
If it really hurts, I’ll give them a kicking performance on the spot.
The donkey’s two erect ears moved slightly.
Zhao Nianhui’s heart began to tense up.
But only a wild rabbit jumped out of the grass.
The gray-black figure was suddenly submerged in the thick green.
Zhao Nianhui breathed a sigh of relief, somewhat wondering if she was overthinking it.
But before that, I clearly felt a strong malicious gaze.
Her sixth sense is rarely wrong.
Plus the reminder from the salesperson at the supply and marketing cooperative.
Zhao Nianhui was very nervous along the way.
I was afraid that if I wasn’t paying attention, two robbers would jump out in front of me.
We were halfway through the trip and there was no sign of any trouble.
Maybe she was really overthinking it.
“Uncle Li, are you still angry?”
Zhao Nianhui finally had some free time to chat.
The first person to look for, of course, is Uncle Li who was sulking in front.
Uncle Li moved his ears but showed no intention of talking.
Zhao Nianhui was not discouraged and touched Ye Xiaoyue with her hand.
Ye Xiaoyue pointed at Uncle Li in front of her with a confused look on her face.
He asked with his lips: Are you really angry?
Zhao Nianhui also nodded seriously.
“Okay, stop gesturing, both of you.”
Without looking back, he caught their little trick.
This conversation eased the tense atmosphere.
This was a sign that Uncle Li would forgive them.
Uncle Li took the initiative to talk about the reason why he was so angry.
It turned out that he had a sixteen-year-old daughter before.
It was on this road that he was kidnapped and killed.
The body was found still lying in the cornfield.
His body was naked and his face was blurred by the impact.
But the red rope on her wrist still made Uncle Li and Aunt Li collapse.
How could they not recognize their own daughter?
The criminals’ methods of committing crimes were cruel. It is said that other girls suffered from it later.
It’s a pity that the police have never found the real murderer.
This sad past event has been cast a shadow.
“It’s been five years, but your aunt and I have never forgotten it. I took this road specifically because I wanted to give directions to my daughter who couldn’t find her home.”
After Uncle Li finished speaking, he wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.
He never stopped driving the donkey.
No wonder everyone in the village said that Uncle Li’s gift of wine was very timely.
Rain or shine, he would always hit the road.
It turns out there is such a reason behind it.
Zhao Nianhui’s heart sank, and Ye Xiaoyue beside her also looked unhappy.
I didn’t know how to comfort her, so I just changed the subject.
“Uncle, is there an old Chinese doctor in the hospital in our town?” Ye Xiaoyue asked with pretended curiosity.
I had bought the things long ago and put them aside and asked the grandma who sells shoe soles to help look after them.
The two did not run around the town, but went directly to the hospital the salesperson mentioned.
But there was only one doctor on duty and two nurses in the hospital.
The doctor on duty told them that the one they were looking for was not at work that day.
If you want to find him, wait until Sunday.
Uncle Li frowned after hearing this. “I don’t know about this, but I have an old classmate whose family runs a Chinese medicine clinic. Later, he went to the town hospital. What you said…”
This could be just one person.
There aren’t that many Chinese medicine clinics in this small town.
Zhao Nianhui couldn’t help but tell the reason.
When Uncle Li learned that she wanted to buy silver needles, he looked back in surprise.
“Do you know acupuncture?”
“I know a little bit.” Zhao Nianhui answered humbly.
Thinking of the silver needle that was like a shadow to her in the previous life, she felt her hands itching at this moment.
Uncle Li told Zhao Nianhui and the others that the old classmate was not in good health.
I have been having recurring symptoms recently and have not been able to go to the hospital on time.
Promise to take them to meet that old classmate next time I come.
This was a reassurance to Zhao Nianhui.
At least I don’t have to worry about not seeing anyone next time I come.
“Hey, this donkey is having a bad temper!”
The donkey cart that was moving slowly suddenly stopped.
Uncle Li muttered a few words.
He cracked the whip, but the donkey still didn’t move.
Ye Xiaoyue smiled and said, “I finally know what a donkey’s temper is.”
But Uncle Li was still somewhat puzzled by the donkey’s strange behavior.
As an old friend, he is usually very cooperative.
But today, I just won’t move forward.
It seemed as if something ahead frightened it.
In a flash, Uncle Li’s eyes turned hateful.
Two masked men suddenly jumped out in front of the donkey cart.
They were all wearing coarse and tattered clothes, but their faces were covered tightly.
“Hmph, come down.”
“If you dare to make any small move, I will beat you to death.”
The two people did not leave them any room to resist.
He dragged Uncle Li out of the car.
He kicked Uncle Li hard in the heart.
One of them looked at Zhao Nianhui.
The thick desire in there is nauseating.
“Hey, little beauty, you better be obedient.”
“I don’t want to be so harsh on you.”
The original owner’s appearance was not bad to begin with, he just bent his head and lowered his waist out of habit.
She has been eating well these days and has grown a lot, looking more beautiful.
Plus, her face was becoming more and more like her previous life.
In her previous life, Zhao Nianhui made it onto the school beauty list simply by virtue of her face.
But what she hated most was other people looking at her like that.
Even if she didn’t have the silver needle, Zhao Nianhui would definitely kill this man if he dared to touch her.
He silently clenched the scissors that he had been holding in his hand since he got on the donkey cart.
“You beasts, stop it!”
Uncle Li, who was rolling on the ground after being kicked, seemed to have sudden strength.
He quickly got up from the ground and hugged one of the men’s legs tightly.
He quickly got up from the ground and hugged one of the men’s legs tightly.
Then he opened his mouth wide and bit him hard.
“Ah! You old man, you’re looking for death!”
The person who was bitten was furious and kicked Uncle Li again and again.
The two men on the donkey cart had red eyes due to anger.
Ye Xiaoyue couldn’t help but picked up the wine jar beside her and threw it down.
“Stop! Stop it!”
Unfortunately, his movements were too big and he was discovered and dodged.
But he didn’t avoid Zhao Nianhui who jumped out of the car and gave him a flying kick from behind.
He kicked the man away and protected Uncle Li on the ground behind him.
This heroic appearance brought tears to Uncle Li’s eyes.
“Okay, first ask for money, and then you can do whatever you want with this woman.”
Because I have to consider the safety of the two people behind me.
The distracted Zhao Nianhui was controlled by one of them.
What they said also made Zhao Nianhui’s eyes darken.
Sure enough, they came for the money.
Even if these people took the money, they would not necessarily let them live.
Is she destined to end up here?
No, you can’t!
She couldn’t just accept her fate like this!
Just as Zhao Nianhui was about to resist, a terrible scream caught people’s attention.
