Chapter 467: with translation of chapter title

Across from him, Zhu Liwen also stood up, his eyes sinister as he glanced at the lunging Duan Chunsheng, his venomous stare locked onto Ye Cheng.

Seeing Ye Cheng rush over, he licked his lips and charged straight at Ye Cheng.

Whoosh—

The stick, carrying a fierce wind, smashed hard into Zhu Liwen's left arm, a piercing pain making his body stagger.

Damn, Ye Cheng had zeroed in on his left arm problem, not caring whether he himself would get hit, he just kept striking at his left arm.

Just two blows, Zhu Liwen felt his arm already broken, his whole left arm unable to lift.

"Big brother." Lao Er beside him, seeing the big brother couldn't hold up, came up with a few sticks to fend off Ye Cheng, then helped Zhu Liwen up.

Ye Cheng's ferocity had risen, his body covered in blood spots, having repelled one Zhu Liwen, he was about to step forward to help Xiao Hu.

Then he heard the crowd erupt in a gasp,

"Watch out!"

"A Cheng!"

He instinctively turned his head, then shrank back, a white light flashed before his eyes, and immediately his abdomen felt cold.

Ye Cheng lowered his head to look, and a blood line appeared on his belly.

"Slashed by a knife!"

Ye Cheng lifted his head to see, Zhu Liwen was like a trapped beast, right hand holding a knife, the blade tip dripping blood, staring fixedly at Ye Cheng.

Everyone present was stunned, knives were drawn.

Fighting is fighting, drawing knives is drawing knives.

Fighting won't cost lives, but drawing knives is another matter.

If someone dies, nobody will be fine; if the government deems this unsafe, they could directly dismantle the Matou.

This concerns everyone's livelihood; now nobody spoke up to advise, each grabbed something at hand and pointed at Zhu Liwen, shouting angrily,

"Put down the knife! Put down the knife!"

Only then did Xiao Hu notice Ye Cheng was injured; he roared, pushed the two apart, then rushed over,

"Brother, how are you?"

"A Cheng, don't move yet, otherwise if the wound tears open it'll be trouble." Duan Chunsheng said nervously.

Ye Cheng kept his head lowered, extended his hand and lightly touched the wound on his belly.

Hiss—

Eh—

It felt like only a slight chill.

He boldly touched it.

Damn!

Fortunately, it's just a superficial scrape.

If it went any deeper, I could lose weight.

Zhu Liwen has also calmed down; just now he was blinded by killing intent, so he reflexively drew his knife and slashed.

Fortunately Ye Cheng dodged a bit, otherwise he'd surely end up in jail again.

Thinking of his family's situation, Zhu Liwen couldn't help but feel a wave of dread.

So when everyone shouted, he quickly threw the knife away.

The four brothers quickly regrouped; the most seriously injured among them was Zhu Liwen, who had been chased and struck on the left arm by Ye Cheng, and it's unknown whether it's broken.

The others all had minor injuries, but nothing serious.

On Ye Cheng's side, the most seriously injured is Ye Cheng himself, his face covered in blood, and now his belly too.

Although he repeatedly said he was fine, the others still made him lie down obediently.

After such a big incident, someone had already called the police; after the two groups calmed down a few minutes, Chief Liu led the police officers to the scene.

"What happened? What's going on? How did it turn out like this?" Chief Liu took one look at the scene and jumped in shock, "Holy shit, blood's all over the place."

Taking another look at the parties involved, it's not Ye Cheng, is it?

Then he looked at the other side—damn, the Zhu family four brothers.

No wonder.

These aren't pushovers, and they're all tough.

"Take everyone away, have you called 120?" Chief Liu shouted loudly.

"We have, Chief Liu, but they haven't arrived yet."

"If they haven't come, hurry them up—can't you see all this blood?"

Just as they were speaking, the crowd behind suddenly stirred up again, and immediately a group of angry villagers rushed in, led by Ye Guowei.

"A Cheng, how did you end up like this? Damn, who hit you?"

Ye Guowei was originally working at home; the previous coworkers at Matou, upon seeing Ye Cheng fighting, immediately called to tell him.

Upon hearing this, Ye Guowei immediately found a few helpers and rushed over, but the fight was already over here.

Ye Cheng wiped the blood off his face, intending to look a bit cleaner, but doing so made it look even more horrifying,

"Brother, I'm fine, just a superficial injury."

"That's still a superficial injury? Your belly's bleeding—if it went any deeper, you'd be dead." Ye Guowei felt distressed looking at Ye Cheng's wound.

Xiao Hu's parents also came over, stepped forward to look at their son.

"Mom, Dad, I'm fine, just took a few hits." Xiao Hu wasn't unharmed either; he could certainly be called bruised and swollen.

"That bastard beat my son up like this—you lot won't die a good death!" Xiao Hu's mother pointed at the Zhu family brothers across and cursed.

"It was you guys who did it, right? Chief Liu, we must arrest them and throw them in jail, jail." Ye Guowei angrily pulled Chief Liu aside and said.

Liu Jin is overwhelmed; he just managed to control the scene, but as soon as the family members arrived here, they started causing trouble again.

"We're going to jail? It should be Ye Cheng going to jail!" Zhu Liwen said angrily.

"He deliberately set a trap, letting us sail our boat in, then rammed our boat, and left a fishing net to snag our propeller, sinking our boat—he's the one who should go to jail!"

"Right, it was Ye Cheng who first messed up our boat."

"It almost drowned us."

The four brothers pointed at Ye Cheng and started cursing; as they cursed, the youngest, Old Four, actually began to cry,

"Our family only has this one boat; now the boat is gone, how are we supposed to live from now on?"

"Wuu—wuu—wuu—"

"They're crying?!!!!"

Now everyone is dumbfounded.

The style changed a bit too quickly.

Just now you were still fighting bloody in the streets, hot-blooded and fervent, and now you're suddenly bursting into tears, performing a melodrama, right?

But hearing this, it sounds pretty miserable; everyone looked at Ye Cheng.

Ye Cheng hadn't spoken yet when Duan Chunsheng stood up directly, pointed at the opposite side, and said,

"You still have the nerve to say that?"

"All you talk about is how you sank the boat, but you never said why you went there."

Saying this, Duan Chunsheng turned to look at the surrounding crowd, then spoke loudly,

"These Zhu family brothers specialize in stealing our fish traps and longlines; yesterday they themselves admitted it, and today they went to steal our fish traps again. Oh, your own skills are poor, your boat sank while stealing, and now you're blaming us?"

"Damn, did we let you go steal?"

"And you still think you're justified in stealing?"

After Duan Chunsheng's explanation, basically everyone present understood.

In short, Ye Cheng knew they would steal fish, so he deliberately chose a more dangerous spot and then sank the Zhu brothers' fishing boat.

After Duan Chunsheng finished speaking, Ye Cheng continued,

"Chief Liu, yesterday we encountered them; they've been tailing us all along, just wanting to know where we placed our fish traps."
