After marrying the hunter, he became more and more abnormal

Chapter 173: Hitting the wall (3)

If this guy hadn't been secretly making trouble, he would have been able to talk to the village chief tomorrow and make a lot of money together, Xia Mo snorted in his heart.

Ling Chuan saw that the young man was angry and dissatisfied, but his eyes were particularly bright and cunning. He couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled, "Okay, let him compensate us..."

Ling Chuan's voice suddenly paused as he spoke. His gentle narrow eyes instantly turned cold and shot sharply towards the outside of the cell.

Noticing his abnormality, Xia Mo also looked over, "What's wrong?"

"Someone is coming." Ling Chuan stared and said in a deep voice.

As expected, as soon as he finished speaking, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside: tap, tap, tap…

The footsteps were getting louder and louder, I was afraid there was more than one person.

Xia Mo and Ling Chuan looked at each other and slowly stood up.

"He hid it really well. I put in a lot of effort and finally found him."

I heard the voice before I saw the person. The person who spoke was a woman with heavy makeup.

She walked out of the cell, accompanied by a tall and thin man in brocade clothes and several strong men dressed as followers.

It seems that they are well prepared. Xia Mo's eyes darkened for a moment and his eyebrows slightly frowned. "What do you mean? Who are you?"

The woman took two steps forward, pressed the tip of her nose against the fingers holding the handkerchief, and looked at Xia Mo and Ling Chuan with a very artificial smile.

"Who are we? We are the ones you lowly people look up to. Playing hide-and-seek is no fun. If you don't want to suffer, just give us what we want."

Seeing the woman think so highly of herself and speaking in a coquettish voice, Xia Mo couldn't help but get goose bumps and a chill in his heart. But, what does it mean to obediently give them what they want?

Could it be that they coveted something from them, so they set up a trap to frame them and put them in jail?

Xia Mo's mind raced, his puzzled expression replaced by shock and slight anger. He stared at the woman and shouted, "It's you! You framed us! Why?"

"Why? Haha, of course you are blind and blocking our way to wealth." The woman turned her head and smiled at the jailer, saying charmingly, "Open the door."

Seeing this, the man in brocade clothes glanced at her with a little disdain, "Rou Ji, stop being so coquettish."

As soon as the jailer opened the door, he strode in without paying any attention to the woman's angry look at him, and the jailer also left tactfully.

The man in brocade clothes looked at Xia Mo and Ling Chuan, and his arrogant gaze finally settled on Ling Chuan, who had a gloomy and oppressive aura.

"Since you already know how powerful we are, you should be smart and hand over the ancestral recipe. Otherwise, you will suffer the consequences!"

Obviously, the man in brocade clothes, who thought he knew the ins and outs of the two people, believed in his heart that the ancestral recipe belonged to Lingchuan, so he didn't even look at Xia Mo, and Xia Mo was surprised.

Recipe? They came here for this. Could it be that these people were sent by the rivals of Shopkeeper Qin?

So he blinked, frowned even more, and said blankly, "What ancestral recipe? What are you talking about?"

Seeing Xia Mo pretending to be dumbfounded, the man's eyes suddenly became stern, and he snorted coldly, "Hmph, stop pretending, we have already found out that it was you who sold the recipe to Tianranju."

Xia Mo uttered "Ah", opened his mouth and said "I'm not pretending", then raised his eyes to look at Ling Chuan, "Brother Ling, do we have that thing at home? Did they make a mistake?"

"No." Ling Chuan said indifferently.

Xia Mo nodded, showing an expression of 'I told you so', then looked at the man whose face suddenly darkened, and said: "Look, there is none."

Seeing that the two of them were singing the same tune and refusing to admit it even when they were on the verge of death, Rouji sneered and walked to the side of the men.

"Chen Hao, I told you that they are a tough nut to crack, but you still don't believe me. If it were me, I would have taught them a lesson first."

"You're really not going to accept my toast and then you'll have to drink the forfeit." Chen Hao sneered.

Seeing his arrogance, Xia Mo's eyelashes fluttered a few times, and then he looked at Ling Chuan, pointed at his forehead and said:

"Brother Ling, do you think there is something wrong with this guy? I told him we don't have any, but he insisted that we do."

Chen Hao was so angry that his teeth were itching, and he decided to take real action to see if he dared to argue with him.

He just raised his hand and waved, and the strong men behind him began to twist their joints and clench their fists, striding towards Xia Mo and Ling Chuan.

Ling Chuan's eyes turned cold, his expression suddenly chilled, and the murderous aura around him suddenly poured out. His black eyes looked murderously at the burly man who was rushing towards him, and he pulled the young man behind him with one hand.

Xia Mo looked at the man's broad back, feeling somewhat amused and yet somewhat soft-hearted. It was undeniable that he liked this kind of protection very much, even though he was also a man.

but--

"Brother Ling, I can fight too. It's time to let you, the master, see the results." Xia Mo patted Ling Chuan on the back of the shoulder, glanced at the burly men who looked down on him, and said with a smile.

He knew how to fight before, and now he has Ling Chuan to teach him everything. Even though it's only fist and foot skills, he should be able to make some progress.

Ling Chuan turned around and saw the eagerness in the boy's smiling eyes. After thinking for a moment, he moved aside a little.

Forget it, since the young man is interested, just let him do it. Anyway, with him around, he just needs to pay more attention later.

Chen Hao and Rou Ji could not help but sneer at Xia Mo's bragging. With his tiny arms and legs, he really wanted to beat these strong men? It was just a joke.

"Get started. Get the things as soon as possible and report back as soon as possible."

At Chen Hao's command, the strong men moved.

Obviously, these sturdy men did not take the slender and petite Xia Mo seriously. They concentrated their firepower on Ling Chuan, leaving only one person to deal with Xia Mo.

The result is predictable. Before the sturdy man's hand touched Xia Mo, Xia Mo grabbed him with one hand, then threw him over his shoulder and threw him to the ground with a loud "bang".

Immediately, the strong man's face was distorted and he groaned in pain.

Chen Hao and Rou Ji, who were watching, were stunned. None of them had expected that this weak-looking boy could be so fierce. They immediately straightened their faces, but what shocked them even more was what happened next.

Because Ling Chuan took action, his movements were brutal and swift. The first sturdy man he knocked down had no time to get up before he was kicked several meters away. The "crack" sound of the man hitting the ground heavily, like broken bones, made people's hearts sink.

In an instant, the strong men who wanted to follow one after another became timid, and for a moment they didn't know whether to go up or not.

After being slapped in the face, Chen Hao's face instantly turned gloomy. He shouted loudly: "Why are you still standing there? Beat him to death!"

The hesitant strong man was urged by him and suddenly seemed to gain some kind of strength. He clenched his fists and went ahead.

Because of the lessons learned from the past, they no longer dared to underestimate Xia Mo and Ling Chuan, but even so, they were no match for Xia Mo and Ling Chuan.

Ling Chuan was a martial artist and as strong as an ox. He had always been able to defeat any large and difficult prey when hunting before, not to mention he had been on the battlefield before, so these strong men with well-developed limbs were like embroidered pillows to him.

He punched swiftly and powerfully, and kicked and hit violently. The strong men who wanted to outnumber the weaker ones were suddenly sent flying and fell to the ground one by one.

Xia Mo was not at a disadvantage either.

He was agile and dodged the strong man's attack with a flick of his body. He then took advantage of the moment when he squatted to sweep his legs across, tripping the man to the ground...

So, in a short while, all these strong men were knocked down.

Chen Hao and Rou Ji looked at the strong men rolling on the ground and howling in pain. Their faces changed drastically and they unconsciously took two steps back.

This time, they might be facing a tough opponent.
