Chapter 294: Robbing a Commoner Woman

At this moment, not far outside Xuzhou City.

A group of people was surrounding a young girl.

"... Stinking woman, I advise you to obediently surrender and hand over the silver, lest we brothers get rough with you!"

"Boss, this woman still has some looks; why don't we sell her to Spring-Joy Tower?"

"Are you blind? Didn't you see this woman has six fingers? Which brothel would want her?"

The man who made the suggestion shrank his neck, but his pair of thieving, rat-like eyes were lecherously sizing up the young girl.

He had lived for more than half his life and had never touched a woman; regardless of whether she was a curse star or not, he would play with her first.

Anyway, in this wilderness, no one could see, and even if someone saw, they wouldn't save a curse star who had cursed her whole family to death.

The young girl's terrified face was full of tear stains; knowing she couldn't escape this disaster, she closed her eyes in resignation.

But at this moment, the man who had just smiled lecherously at her suddenly stiffened and fell headlong to the ground, fainting.

This sudden turn of events left the few men stunned.

"Who is it?!"

The few hurriedly looked around, but where could there be anyone in this wilderness?

Except for a horse carriage parked in the distance.

But that carriage was so far away from them, how could it possibly have taken action against them?

At the same time.

Jiang Xiaoxiao was sitting in the carriage, holding an anesthetic gun, aiming at those few hooligans not far outside the window.

"The aim just now was acceptable."

Jiang Wei's voice sounded from beside her.

"Now you try aiming at the leader of that group..."

Jiang Xiaoxiao held the anesthetic gun, the muzzle aimed at the man in the very front who was preparing to take action against the young girl.

Then, she pulled the trigger—

Whoosh!

The man fell to the ground in response.

The circle of men around finally realized something was wrong.

"Who exactly is it?! Get out here quickly, don't play tricks on me!"

Whoosh—

Another man fell to the ground.

Of the original five men, three were now unconscious on the ground.

The remaining two men finally panicked.

"Third Brother, d-don't tell me we offended something unclean..."

"D-don't talk nonsense!" The man's voice was also a bit flustered, but he still pretended to be calm: "Someone must be hiding in the dark and plotting against us!"

As he spoke, his gaze fell on the horse carriage in the distance.

Intuition told him that it was the person in that carriage playing tricks!

He walked over with big strides and kicked the carriage compartment: "Hey, get out here, you inside!"

Jiang Xiaoxiao poked her little head out from the window, her black and white eyes staring at him.

Seeing it was just a five-year-old little girl, the man's tone became even more arrogant and vicious: "Little brat, tell the people inside to get out, or I'll choke you to death!"

"Choke who to death?" Jiang Wei lifted the carriage curtain and got off the carriage.

The man was stunned, not expecting that a young lady would come directly down from the carriage.

Although Jiang Wei's appearance couldn't be counted as that kind of peerless great beauty, she was still a delicate beauty when placed in a crowd; coupled with her indifferent temperament and cold eyebrows and eyes, she had a beauty that made it difficult for people to move their eyes away.

The man couldn't help but lick his lips, his face carrying a bit of lewdness.

Just now, through the carriage curtain, he had already seen the situation inside the carriage; there was only this pair of mother and daughter, no one else.

A pair of orphans and widows; aren't these lambs delivered to the door voluntarily?

The man looked lecherously at Jiang Wei: "Why is the young lady appearing in this wilderness alone? Is there something wrong? Do you need me to help you..."

He approached with a lewd smile, seemingly wanting to touch Jiang Wei's hand, but the next second, his arm was twisted back by Jiang Wei.

"Ah—it hurts, it hurts, it hurts!!"

The man let out a pig-slaughtering scream, and after reacting, he immediately cursed: "You stinking woman, don't be ungrateful, let go quickly—ah!!"

Before he finished speaking, one of his legs was kicked fiercely by Jiang Wei, forcing him to kneel on the ground; his knees hit the ground heavily, and coupled with the severe pain from his arm, he was in such pain that his face turned pale and cold sweat dripped.

At this, he finally realized that he had provoked someone he shouldn't have.

"S-spare my life..." The man begged. "Heroine, spare my life, spare me, I won't dare again..."

Jiang Wei then let go of his hand.

However, just at this moment, a flash of ruthlessness suddenly appeared on the face of the man kneeling on the ground, and he fiercely pulled out a sharp blade hidden in his bosom to stab at Jiang Wei.

"Stinking woman, go to hell—"

Jiang Wei didn't change her expression, and just as the sharp blade was about to stab over, she clamped the man's wrist.

Then—

With a "crack" sound.

The man's last intact hand was also snapped off by Jiang Wei.

The sharp blade fell to the ground, and the man fainted directly from the pain.

At the same time, Jiang Wei picked up the sharp blade and flung it out.

The last man, seeing that the situation was not right and wanting to escape, was also hit between the eyebrows by the sharp blade and fell to the ground with his eyes wide open in death.

The five men who had just surrounded her all fell to the ground unable to get up; Jiang Xuelien, watching this scene, still hadn't reacted.

"Let's go, Xiaoxiao." Jiang Wei called out.

Jiang Xiaoxiao was preparing to climb onto the carriage when suddenly, the young girl she had only met once rushed over and knelt in front of them with a thud.

"T-thank you..."

She lowered her head, her eyes red, her right index finger tucked into her palm, pinching it tightly.

Jiang Wei saw that something was wrong with her: "What's wrong with your hand?"

As soon as Jiang Wei mentioned her hand, she was like a frightened rabbit, shaking her head in a panic, as if trying hard to hide something, kowtowing while saying: "It's nothing, my hand is fine, thank you Madam for saving my life, this little girl will never forget it, and can only repay you in the next life..."

Repay in the next life?

Hearing this, Jiang Xiaoxiao couldn't help but frown tightly and asked: "What are you doing in this wilderness?"

"I, I..." Jiang Xuelien's eyes were red, and she seemed unable to hold back any longer, crying out in pain, "My father died, and my family members were all cursed to death by me. The neighbors living in the same alley thought I was bad luck, fearing I would curse them to death, and drove me out. I don't know where to go..."

"How could they do that?" Jiang Xiaoxiao puffed up her cheeks angrily. "What about the ten taels of silver Sister Wanwan gave you? With that money, are you still afraid of not finding a place to live?"

"The money was snatched away by them..." Jiang Xuelien wiped away her tears, sobbing uncontrollably. She had just arranged a coffin for her father and hadn't had time to bury him when she was blocked by those neighbors who wouldn't let her leave, saying that she had lived there for so long and the house had been cursed by her, and in the future, no one would buy it; if she didn't give some money, they wouldn't allow them to leave...

She really had no choice but to give away all the money on her, and those people then let her leave.

But after burying her father, those people wouldn't allow her to enter the house anymore.

She could only wander outside; when people outside saw she had six fingers, they wouldn't even give her work, and she could only come to this wilderness alone... ===== CHAPTER 295 =====
