Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Unlucky Brothers
The boy got the money and ran into the backyard, and followed a stone path to a house.
The inside of this house was very dim, and the dilapidated wooden door had gone through many vicissitudes, and the threshold was almost completely rotten, leaving a wide gap.
The papier-mΓ’chΓ© windows are full of dense holes.
The interior of the room was covered with straw, and there was a foul musty smell coming out of it.
The boy walked straight into the room, but he didn't feel any discomfort, as if he had already adapted to the environment.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw a pale and dirty child lying on the straw pile at the door.
The boy was not very big, and he looked like he was only eleven or twelve years old, but this child was even younger than him, and seemed to be eight or nine years old.
At this moment, the child's face was full of haggardness, and when he saw the young man enter the room, his face immediately showed a hint of joy.
"Brother... You're back. β
"Brother, are you better?"
When the young man saw his brother, he immediately leaned down and reached out to touch the other's forehead. He asked kindly.
"It's hot! No, you can't lie here anymore. Come, my brother will carry you to see the disease! β
As the young man spoke, he had already grabbed his brother's arms, and it took a lot of effort to carry his brother on his back, and then he ran out in a hurry.
......
Outside the courtyard wall, Wang Xiaozu looked at the young man's back and couldn't help but have a sour nose.
At this moment, the young man's thin figure has become so tall in his eyes!
"What kind of world is this, these two little guys ......"
At this moment, he was in no mood to care about his money and being stolen by the other party.
......
To the east of the city is a street near the ruined house.
The boy carried his younger brother on his back and trotted all the way to a nearby hospital.
This clinic is full of people, and there is an endless stream of people who come in to see the disease and buy medicine.
The young man stood quietly at the door, but he no longer dared to take half a step inside.
At this moment, he was already sweating profusely and wheezing, but he still held on to his younger brother who had not let go of his serious illness.
"Whew... Whew......"
Looking at the pedestrians coming in and out of his side, the young man's face looked a little flustered, and his eyes were not fixed in the medical hall.
"Why is this little deflated three?"
"Hurry up, this is a man with unclean hands and feet!"
"Stay away from him!"
......
The identity of the young man is obviously well known in this area, and many people who enter and leave the hospital will show a look of disgust when they see him.
It may be precisely for this reason that he did not immediately rush in to find the doctor, but just stood at the door so anxiously.
And at the counter in the medical hall, a few small people who grabbed medicine also turned a blind eye to it as if it were air, and were still busy with their own hands.
At this time, Wang Xiaozu had already stood not far behind the young man, looking at the young man's anxious expression, and there was a trace of annoyance in his heart for no reason.
was about to step forward to help the young man, but he didn't expect that at this time, several of the same half-grown teenagers walked towards the young man with a menacing face.
"Chen Ping! Why did you carry Chen An here? β
"yes, what the hell is going on? Chen Andu has been sick for several days, where did you get the money to help him see him? β
As soon as a few teenagers approached Chen Ping, they immediately shouted and shouted.
Seeing the visitor, Chen Ping's originally anxious face immediately sank, and there was a trace of resentment in his eyes.
"Little Wuzi, what are you going to do? Where did I get the money to use you? β
......
Seeing this scene, Wang Xiaozu understood at a glance that the two brothers named Chen Ping were obviously at odds with several teenagers.
"Humph! Did you kid hide it behind Boss Liu's back? I'm going to tell you about it! When the time comes, hum, Boss Liu will definitely not spare you! β
The leading young man named Xiao Wuzi immediately threatened very unceremoniously.
Seeing this, Wang Xiaozu felt very uncomfortable in his heart, he had already seen that these teenagers and Chen Ping were all working together under that Boss Liu.
Now that Chen Ping's younger brother has fallen ill, it is just that these teenagers are not connected to their lives, but they will fall into the well.
"There will be something hateful about the wretched! Alas... Well, these are ignorant teenagers..."
Wang Xiaozu thought like this in his heart, and only then did he calm down his anger a little.
"Humph! If I want to sue you, I'll go and sue you! Let's see if Boss Liu listens to you! β
The silver money on Chen Ping's body was originally given to him by Boss Liu, so he was naturally not afraid of the other party's threat, and immediately snorted very hard.
Hearing him say this, the faces of Xiao Wuzi and several teenagers around him suddenly became fierce.
"Good you Chen Ping! Do you think we dare not denounce you? This time I took your dying brother to see the disease, I think you have hidden a lot of benefits! β
"If you know each other, take out some, and we can naturally not blame the past! Otherwise, don't blame us for being polite! β
When Xiao Wuzi's voice fell, suddenly several teenagers around him stepped forward and instantly surrounded Chen Ping and his brothers in the middle.
"What are you going to do? Little Wuzi, this money was given to me by Boss Liu! If you dare to rob it, I will definitely tell Boss Liu! Then you will wait to be beaten! β
When Chen Ping saw the other party's posture, he couldn't help but feel anxious, and hurriedly reprimanded.
On weekdays, he has been bullied by these people a lot, and he has long been used to this kind of thing.
But today is different, the money on his body is used for his brother's illness. Naturally, I couldn't make any more compromises, thinking that I couldn't let Xiao Wuzi and them rob him of anything today.
However, a tiger couldn't stand the wolves, and as soon as he shouted this reprimand, five or six teenagers around him started to move at the same time.
"Hehe, why do you dare to scare us? Even if you go and say, it's strange that Boss Liu believes you? Haha, take out the money obediently! β
At this time, someone had already taken the lead and dragged Chen An off Chen Ping's back.
only heard a pop, and Chen An, who was already sick, lay on the ground.
"Brother!"
Seeing this, Chen Ping was shocked in his heart, and immediately shouted angrily.
However, before he could react, he was taken by Xiao Wuzi and a few people on the spot.
"Where's the money? Hand it over! β
Chen Ping was grabbed by several people, and Xiao Wuzi reached out and touched his body while shouting.
"Let go of me! Let me go! I don't have any money! No money! β
At this moment, Chen Ping's eyes were red, tears were already rolling back and forth in his eyes, and his body was constantly struggling, trying to break free from the hands of several people.
However, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move at all.
"No money? Huh, what is this? Wow! Such a big piece of silver, you really have it! Chen Ping, do you dare to say that Boss Liu gave it to you? How could Boss Liu give you so much! Are we really stupid? β
Syllable!
Xiao Wuzi took out the silver money on Chen Ping's body, and then sneered proudly.
After the words fell, he suddenly slapped Chen Ping in the face.
With a crisp sound, Chen Ping's already somewhat pale cheeks were left with a reddish slap print.
At this moment, Chen Ping's tears in his eyes flowed down all of a sudden, but he didn't make the slightest sobbing.
His eyes suddenly became extremely fierce, and he stared at the face of Xiao Wuzi in front of him.
Being stared at by the other party's wolf-like eyes, Xiao Wuzi couldn't help but tremble. He reacted immediately.
immediately scolded: "Damn, dare to lie to us!" Hit him for me! β
As soon as Xiao Wuzi's words came out, several teenagers around him immediately rounded their arms and punched and kicked Chen Ping.
Even Chen An, who was lying on the ground, took a few kicks from the other party in vain.
Wang Xiaozu stood not far away, watching all this coldly with the pedestrians on the street. I wanted to help, but in the end I resisted the impulse.
Although these teenagers are not of a young age, they are very cruel and have no intention of sparing.
On the ground, Chen Ping covered his head and curled up, but his eyes became more and more resolute, faintly with a bit of fierceness. Let the fists and feet on the back and abdomen add up.
Bang bang bang......
"Heh~phew! Let's go! Huh..."
After several people taught Chen Ping a lesson, their mood was obviously much happier.
Xiao Wuzi took a big mouthful of saliva and spit it out on Chen Ping's head. Then he laughed, took a few people and left.
Chen Ping's eyes on the ground were full of endless anger, and not far away, Wang Xiaozu could even feel a strong killing intent from the other party.
"These boys... What a bunch of little brutes! β
Wang Xiaozu clenched his fists, and soon immediately relaxed. Then he walked towards the brothers.
At this moment, Chen Ping had already sat up from the ground with bared teeth, wiped the mouthful of thick phlegm on the back of his hand, and hurriedly moved to his younger brother's side.
was about to check the other party's situation, when he suddenly saw a white dress appear in front of him.
Seeing someone walking in front of him, Chen Ping was a little strange at first. When his gaze slowly moved upwards and saw a very familiar face, the whole person was immediately shocked on the spot.
"Yes...... Yes... You..."
At this moment, Chen Ping's body couldn't help trembling, and his heart was already terrified.
He had already recognized the person in front of him as the original owner who had burgled from the door of the inn before.
Now that he is out with his younger brother and meets the original owner who was stolen by himself, how can he not feel afraid.
In his mind, if he had bumped into him alone, he would not have panicked so much, for fear that this person would be beaten to death with his brother.
Now his younger brother is seriously ill, but he can't stand being beaten by others! I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand a few blows, and I'll die!
"What's wrong with this kid?"
Wang Xiaozu saw that the other party had such a big reaction, but he didn't think about other aspects, and he couldn't help but have some doubts in his heart.
