Divorced by her husband's family and rejected by her own! She defiantly turned her life around
Chapter 43 Encountering Robbers
The waiter responded, "Miss, my name is Afu. I'll go get the carriage right away. Please wait here for a moment." Afu told another waiter and immediately ran towards the back door. This was the God of Wealth; she couldn't keep him waiting.
Ah Fu drove the carriage to the front gate and called another servant to help load the goods onto the carriage quickly. It should be lunchtime now, and there were far fewer pedestrians on the street, but it was still impossible for the carriage to pass.
"Young lady, there are too many people on the street, the carriage can't get through. How about we go around through that alley ahead?"
"Okay, we'll do it your way."
Afu gently tugged the reins and shouted "Giddy up!" The carriage slowly started moving, passing through the crowd and turning into an alley. Liu Siyue became alert, afraid that this fellow would rob her again, and was ready to fight at any time.
The alley was deserted, and the carriage sped along quickly, soon emerging from the alley and onto the main street. The street looked somewhat familiar to her. Oh, she remembered—this was the place where she had eaten last time, yes, it was this "Xiangmanlou" restaurant.
The carriage wasn't moving very fast, and it had to give way to pedestrians along the way. Liu Dawang was getting anxious, pacing back and forth and looking out onto the street. When he saw a carriage coming this way, he didn't pay any attention and kept looking at the street.
"Ah Fu, stop at that uncle up ahead."
The carriage stopped in front of Liu Dawang, startling him. Liu Siyue jumped off the carriage and called out to her second uncle, "Second Uncle, I'm back! Where's our oxcart? Quickly help me load the things onto the cart."
Ah Fu pointed to the carriage, "Uncle's things are all in the carriage."
Liu Dawang pointed to the location of the oxcart, which was just a few steps away. Afu drove the cart over, and Liu Dawang and Afu began to move things. Liu Siyue tidied up the oxcart, taking the opportunity to take out a lot of things from her spatial storage, filling the oxcart to the brim.
Liu Dawang was dumbfounded. He hadn't seen so much stuff in the carriage, but how did it become so much when it was loaded onto the oxcart? The oxcart was completely full. It really cost money. He felt bad for it!
Afu also found it strange that there were so many things. He immediately realized that the oxcart must have been carrying things. He said goodbye to Liu Siyue and drove the carriage away.
"Second Uncle, let's hurry up and leave, or it will get dark." She found a comfortable spot on the oxcart and sat down, facing backward.
The goods in the truck were very eye-catching, attracting the attention of several thugs on the street, who followed them at a distance.
They had already traveled two miles out of town, and four men were still following behind. At first, Liu Siyue didn't pay any attention, assuming they were just going the same way. But given the speed of the oxcart, the four grown men should have overtaken them long ago.
Her heart jumped. It seemed these people were after her car and its contents. There were still pedestrians on the road, so they probably wouldn't dare to make a move. She also blamed herself for being careless and too conspicuous.
As they got further and further away from the county town, the sky gradually darkened, and there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road. Liu Siyue called out to her second uncle, "Second Uncle, I'm sleepy and want to take a nap. Call me if you need anything."
"Okay, go to sleep."
This was a bend in the road, surrounded by woods. Liu Siyue quietly got off the oxcart, took out a stun gun used by security guards from her spatial storage, put on a mask, and walked towards the group. She deliberately lowered her voice, "You guys have been following me all this way, what do you want?"
The men grinned maliciously. "What else can we do? It's obvious. Leave behind whichever cart of stuff you have, hand over all your money, and we'll let you go."
We brothers always follow the rules; we're only after money, not lives.
"Then what if I say 'no'?"
A gust of evening wind blew by, rustling the leaves and bringing a chill to my body.
The group burst into laughter. "Then don't blame us brothers. You were courting death."
Brothers! Stop wasting time talking to her, hurry up and take care of her, or the oxcart will be gone.
The four men attacked her together. Two of them were indeed skilled, but they were far less so than Liu Siyue. Liu Siyue, wielding an electric baton, fought with the four men. The four thugs, all armed with daggers and looking menacing, kept stabbing at her.
With a side kick followed by a flying kick, Liu Siyue knocked the two loud newbies to the ground. She then stunned each of them with an electric baton, leaving them twitching on the ground.
As for the remaining two, she'll use them as practice. She doesn't have any real combat experience yet, so this will be a practical training session.
As Liu Siyue fought them, she discovered that she was stronger than before, both in strength and speed. She subdued the two men in just a few moves. The two thugs were so frightened that they sat on the ground and kept backing away, begging for mercy, "Hero, spare our lives! We'll never dare to do it again."
Liu Siyue would not be soft-hearted. These people were obviously repeat offenders with all the necessary tools. They could not be let go. To prevent them from going out and harming others in the future, they could not be given another chance.
She also gave each of them an electric baton, rendering them immobile. Then, she picked up a dagger from the ground and severed their Achilles tendons, preventing them from committing any more evil deeds.
Liu Siyue threw the four men to the side of the road, took their daggers, and ransacked them of all their silver. Three of them had only a few dozen copper coins on them, while the other had a money bag, clearly indicating that this man was their leader.
Liu Siyue took out the money bag, weighed it in her hand, and found it to be quite heavy. Without paying any more attention to the others, she hurried off to catch up with the oxcart.
She was amazed by her own speed when she started running. It seemed that this was all thanks to the spiritual spring. She should practice more in the future, and maybe she could master the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique).
Once she caught up with the oxcart, she quietly climbed on and continued to pretend to be asleep. Liu Dawang only felt the oxcart bump slightly, but he didn't care, as the uneven road was perfectly normal.
Liu Siyue pretended to wake up, "Second Uncle, are we home yet?"
"April has awakened."
We're almost home, almost in town. It's getting dark, we need to hurry, otherwise it's not safe on the road.
"Okay, Second Uncle."
Liu Siyue put the heavy items from the cart into her spatial storage to lighten the ox's burden. Seeing that the old ox was really too tired to run anymore, she said to Liu Dawang, "Second Uncle, let's rest in town for a while. I see that the ox can't walk anymore. Let's eat something and drink some water."
Liu Dawang nodded in agreement. He also noticed that the ox was very tired and hadn't drunk any water all day, so it must be very thirsty.
It was already dark when they arrived in town, but it was almost the fifteenth of the lunar month. Although it wasn't a full moon, the moonlight still shone brightly on the ground. Liu Dawang parked the oxcart.
Liu Siyue took out some pastries. "Second Uncle, have some first. Watch the oxcart, I'll go get some water."
"Where are you going to find water so late?"
"Don't worry, there will definitely be a way."
Liu Siyue walked into an alley, went into her space, found a wooden-textured plastic bucket, filled it with tap water, added a few drops of spiritual spring water, and then left the space with a bowl in her hand.
"Second Uncle, here's some water. You can have some first, and give the rest to the cow."
Aren't you going to drink?
"I've already drunk it, you should drink it now."
Liu Dawang drank three bowls in a row, and his dry throat felt much better. When Liu Siyue saw that he had stopped drinking, she put the bucket in front of the cow, and the cow immediately started drinking. However, the cow's head was too big, and it could not drink more after drinking a little. It was so anxious that it mooed loudly.
Seeing this, Liu Dawang felt heartbroken. If the village chief knew, he would be devastated. He picked up a bowl and fed the cow water bowl by bowl until the bucket was empty.
Liu Siyue knew this was the effect of the spiritual spring. She turned the bucket upside down and said to the ox, "Look, it's gone."
Liu Dawang laughed when he heard this.
