Koi Fubao: Being loved by everyone on the road to escape from famine

She carefully poured out two pills and softly asked Zhang to get some water and help Mrs. Lu take them.

After taking the pill, Mrs. Lu forced out a smile, her eyes full of gratitude: "Miss Xiao, you have worked so hard."

Xiao Zhixue didn't say much, but just turned around quietly and returned to the small circle where her family was sitting.

Her silence seemed particularly heavy in this tense atmosphere.

In a short while, the air was filled with the sound of hurried footsteps, accompanied by noisy shouts, and more than twenty police officers rushed into this quiet little village like a flood and beasts. Amid the flying dust, they all had fierce looks and looked aggressive, like a group of hungry wolves looking for prey.

"Yes, it was that ragged woman who dared to hurt our brothers!"

One of the officers was holding a steel knife, with a fierce look on his face, and pointed his finger directly at Xiao Zhixue. The sharp accusation was like a sharp dagger.

The leading officer, Gao Qiang, had a cold face and quickly swept his cold eyes over Xiao Zhixue. His eyes contained both unquestionable authority and a hint of subtle surprise.

Then, he opened his lips slightly and uttered a cold command: "Capture them all, leave no one alive!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the officers swarmed forward as if they had received an order to charge, attempting to suppress the villagers and Xiao Zhixue's family with their numerical advantage.

However, the villagers were unwilling to surrender; they stood up straight, burning with anger.

Just when the situation was tense, a surprising change broke the deadlock.

Gao Qiang's scream, like that of a wild boar being hit hard, suddenly rang out, breaking through the solidified air, and everyone's attention was instantly attracted to the sudden scene.

Gao Qiang's tall body had been restrained by Xiao Zhixue at some point. Her hands were like iron clamps, twisting Gao Qiang's arms behind his back. The severe pain made the forehead of this usually majestic officer covered with beads of sweat, and he was in great pain.

This sudden situation shocked the other officers for a moment. They stood there in a daze, at a loss as to what to do.

"What are you idiots still standing there for? Come and help me restrain her! Ouch, my arm is about to break!"

Gao Qiang's face was almost distorted with pain, and he roared and ordered his men.

Following Gao Qiang's shout, those dazed officers finally woke up from their dream and rushed towards Xiao Zhixue again.

But in a flash, the situation reversed again. Xiao Zhixue seemed to have anticipated it. A small knife with a cold glow was placed at Gao Qiang's throat. The touch of the cold metal made Gao Qiang's breathing stagnate.

"If you come one step closer, I will let you witness with your own eyes the blood of your companions staining this land red!"

Xiao Zhixue's voice was as cold as ice, and every word was as sharp as a knife. The officers felt a chill under their feet and involuntarily stopped their approaching steps.

Xiao Zhixue's second warning was like thunder: "Everyone retreat!"

The officers looked at each other, and finally turned to their leader for help. At this time, Gao Qiang's face was pale, his body was shaking uncontrollably, and his previous arrogance had completely disappeared.

Just as he tried to resist, Xiao Zhixue moved as fast as lightning and locked his entire arm behind his back with just one twist.

She was incredibly strong. With just a slight twist, Gao Qiang's arm broke with a crisp "crack" sound, and he almost fainted from the pain.

At this moment, Gao Qiang was filled with hatred, but the blade against his fragile carotid artery made him dare not make any rash moves. He could only endure the severe pain and yell at his men: "Are you deaf? Everyone, step back!"

Faced with such a situation, the officers dared not even think of resisting. They shrank back and retreated one after another.

Xiao Zhixue's face was as calm as water: "If you know what's best for you, get out of here as soon as possible and don't harass us again, otherwise I won't show mercy next time."

Gao Qiang's eyes were filled with resentment, but he was unable to make any response due to the chill on his neck.

A young officer was so angry that he could not help but roar: "You stinky beggar, do you know who our master is? He is the mayor of Jinguan Town. If you dare to touch our boss, your entire clan will never be able to leave Jinguan Town alive!"

After hearing this, Xiao Zhixue curled up her lips in a sarcastic smile.

"Thank you so much for reminding me of your master's identity. How dare a small official like him so blatantly allow his subordinates to oppress the people and rob their property. I'm really curious about who the mayor is and how he has the guts to trample on the dignity and rights of the people."

After saying this, the knife in Xiao Zhixue's hand gently slid across Gao Qiang's neck, leaving a faint mark.

Gao Qiang's facial features seemed twisted into a mess due to the pain. Sweat flowed down his cheeks, interweaving with his burning anger to form a distorted picture.

His eyes were particularly red because of anger, but he was restrained and had no place to vent his anger and unwillingness.

"Get out of here now! Do you want to witness my tragic death here with your own eyes?"

Gao Qiang let out a deafening roar at the officers around him, causing everyone present to feel a tightness in their hearts.

Under the dual pressure of Gao Qiang's roar and Xiao Zhixue's fierce momentum, the officers finally realized the seriousness of the situation.

They looked at each other, then turned around like a tide, scrambling to flee this place of trouble, fearing that they would become the next victim.

When the onlookers saw this scene, they couldn't help but step back and automatically make way for a wide path. Their faces were filled with surprise and awe. They whispered and talked among themselves, but no one dared to step forward to stop them.

Among the bustling crowd, three figures stood out particularly. They were old acquaintances that Xiao Zhixue had not noticed.

Fan Yanmu and his two followers, Shadow 2 and Shadow 1.

Ying Er quietly leaned close to Fan Yanmu's ear and whispered, "Boss, Miss Xiao is really brave. She dared to fight against more than 20 fully armed officers alone."

Fan Yanmu raised his eyebrows when he heard this, with a complex emotion in his eyes. He was quite surprised at the unexpected reunion with Xiao Zhixue here.

His thoughts couldn't help but drift back to the past. He remembered that Xiao Zhixue had firmly expressed that she didn't want to be displaced with the people of Xiahe Village anymore. Now, none of the villagers accompanying her were from that former home.

Fan Yanmu had already seen through the unprovoked provocation of the officers just now and wanted to help, but he did not expect that Xiao Zhixue was not only a superb medical skill, but also had amazing martial arts skills. She easily subdued the captain of the police in a few rounds.

Gao Qiang watched his men fleeing in all directions like fallen leaves swept by the autumn wind, his teeth chattering, his heart filled with resentment and hatred.

"Now, you should let me go, right?" he asked through gritted teeth.

However, what greeted him was only Xiao Zhixue's cold sneer. She slowly put away the weapon in her hand. She seemed relaxed, but in fact she was hiding her sharp intentions.
