Courtyard Houses: From Families of Martyrs and Orphans to Giants of the Times

The entrance to the alley.

The wind blew dust into the air.

A few hooligans blocked He Yushui against the wall.

He Yushui was so frightened that she huddled up in a ball, but she still clung tightly to the cloth bag in her arms.

Her face turned pale with fright.

"I...I won't give it to you..."

"This is the money I gave to buy medicine for my brother..."

Please...

But the few hooligans on the other side seemed not to hear it at all and didn't take it seriously.

The leader was in his early twenties.

Tall and thin.

There is also a scar on the left side of his face.

It's obviously not a legitimate product.

"Stop talking nonsense!"

"Bring it to me right now!"

talking.

He reached out and snatched the cloth bag from He Yushui's arms.

He Yushui was so anxious that tears welled up in her eyes.

But she was a rather weak little girl.

How could she possibly compete with several grown men?

It looked like the cloth bag was about to be taken away.

Just at this time.

A voice suddenly rang out from behind.

"A few rather burly men."

"Stealing a young girl's things? And it's her medicine money!"

"Have you no shame?"

The thugs turned around at the same time upon hearing the sound.

Then I saw a boy who was about half a year old standing at the entrance of the alley.

He was wearing an old cotton-padded jacket, but it was very neat.

He is not tall.

But that look in his eyes was particularly cold.

He Yushui was stunned for a moment.

Then his eyes lit up immediately.

"Brother Jian'an!"

Lin Jian'an walked over slowly.

His face was expressionless.

But I was already getting a little angry.

He's not really someone with an overwhelming sense of justice.

In my past life, I was involved in the antique trade.

I've seen all sorts of dirty things.

But the problem is.

He Yushui was still a young girl.

Moreover, this is the era.

Poor as they may be.

They're really daring to rob people outright.

Most of them are not good stuff.

Scarface gave him a playful once-over.

Suddenly I laughed.

"Where did this little brat come from?"

"Get out of here."

"Don't delay me from getting things done."

Lin Jian'an ignored him completely.

He walked straight to He Yushui's side.

"Are you alright?"

He Yushui's eyes were red.

But he still shook his head desperately.

"I'm fine..."

"I just can't lose the money..."

Lin Jian'an nodded.

Then he turned to look at those people.

"Get out now."

"I'll pretend I didn't see it."

The air suddenly became quiet.

Followed by.

The thugs burst out laughing.

"Hahaha!"

"This kid's pretty arrogant!"

"They're not even fully grown yet."

"Are you planning to play the hero and save the damsel in distress?"

Scarface laughed so hard he couldn't stand up straight.

"Little brat."

Do you know who I am?

Have you ever heard of "Scarface Liu from East Street"?

"Who in the neighborhood wouldn't avoid me?"

Lin Jian'an remained completely unmoved.

Even a little to laugh.

A petty hoodlum and good-for-nothing from the 1950s.

to be honest.

They only dare to bully ordinary people.

You really run into a tough guy.

More cowardly than anyone else.

"I'll say it one last time."

"Get out of here."

Now.

Scarface Six's face darkened completely.

"Little brat."

"Are you looking for death?"

Done.

He raised his hand and pushed it over.

The next second...

A muffled thud.

Scarface Six was completely out of control and took two steps backward.

He looked completely bewildered.

It wasn't just him.

The thugs nearby were stunned by what they saw.

Because no one saw it clearly.

How did Lin Jian'an make his move?

Even Lin Jian'an himself was a little surprised.

After the enhancement.

His body was reacting much faster than before.

It was almost an instinct.

He punched the other person in the chest.

and.

Its power is greater than imagined.

Scarface Six's chest was burning with pain.

The way they looked at Lin Jian'an changed.

"You little brat!"

"Get him!"

The two thugs next to him immediately pounced on him.

Available in the next second.

boom!

boom!

The two were immediately knocked down.

One of them was clutching his stomach.

One fell into a snowdrift.

The scene immediately fell silent.

Lin Jian'an himself was stunned.

"This enhancement... is a bit too much."

He feels it very clearly now.

Whether it's power or speed.

They have already far surpassed ordinary people.

He even noticed the other person's actions.

Everything is a bit slow, almost like slow motion.

Scarface Liu's expression finally changed.

Even someone as stupid as him could see it.

Something's not right with this kid.

A child who is about half a year old.

Three adults were taken down in just a few moves?

What a joke.

"Who...who are you?"

Lin Jian'an walked over slowly.

The sound was exceptionally calm.

"after."

"If I see you stealing someone again..."

I'll break your legs.

Done.

He kicked it directly.

boom!

Scarface Six slammed his entire body against the wall.

The pain was so intense I almost passed out.

Now.

The thugs were completely terrified.

"Run!"

Someone shouted something.

Several people got up and ran.

They disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The alley finally quieted down.

He Yushui stood to the side.

Her little mouth was wide open.

I was completely stunned.

"Jian... Brother Jian'an..."

"How are you so amazing?"

Lin Jian'an coughed.

"I learned a little from my dad before."

He could only come up with any excuse.

You can't exactly say you got a booster injection.

He Yushui immediately looked at him with admiration.

"That's amazing!"

"You just sent them flying with a single blow!"

Just like in the movie!

Lin Jian'an almost laughed.

This girl knows how to give compliments.

"Alright."

"Why did you come here all by yourself?"

When this is mentioned...

He Yushui's face immediately darkened.

"My brother is sick..."

"I had a fever last night."

"I came out to buy medicine."

Lin Jian'an frowned slightly.

Is Shazhu sick?

In the original work.

This guy has always been quite strong, like a bull.

I guess he's been working too hard lately.

"Do you have enough money?"

He Yushui nodded quickly.

"enough!"

Done.

Then she carefully hugged the cloth bag tightly.

He was clearly terrified.

Lin Jian'an glanced at the sky.

"Let's go."

"I'll take you back."

He Yushui immediately followed.

along the way.

The little girl's mouth never stopped.

"Brother Jian'an".

"You really know kung fu?"

"Um."

"Then could you teach my brother?"

"He brags about his fighting skills every day."

"As a result, Xu Damao chased me with a stick last time."

"..."

Lin Jian'an almost burst out laughing.

Sha Zhu when he was young.

He wasn't as arrogant as he became later.

At least for now.

He's still a young man, barely out of school.

The two had just entered the courtyard house.

Yan Bugui saw it from the front yard.

"Oh, the rain is back?"

"Who gave you this?"

He Yushui immediately spoke excitedly:

"Brother Jian'an!"

"Someone just robbed me!"

"Brother Jian'an chased them all away!"

These words were spoken.

The front yard fell silent instantly.

The three women who were watering the flowers were stunned.

"What?"

"Did Jian'an drive them away?"

Yan Bugui looked even more suspicious.

"You're not seeing things?"

"real!"

"There are three!"

"They were all beaten down by Brother Jian'an!"

She became more and more agitated as she spoke.

It's like a storyteller.

Not long after.

The whole courtyard knew.

"Have you heard?"

"That kid from the Lin family in the backyard beat up a few thugs!"

"Really?"

"Only twelve years old, right?"

"The rainwater said it itself!"

Intermediate People's Court.

Jia Zhangshi heard the news.

My first reaction was disbelief.

"Are you bragging?"

"How could a kid like him be a thug?"

The stick next to him had its eyes shining.

"real!"

"Uncle Jian'an is amazing!"

"Last time you even said you'd break my legs!"

"..."

Jia Zhangshi's face immediately darkened.

"You're quite proud of yourself?"

backyard.

Lin Jian'an had just returned to the house.

A system notification suddenly sounded.

【Ding! 】

[The host changes someone else's fate for the first time]

[Reward: 10 points]

[Special Reward: Military Boxing (Beginner Level)]

next second.

A flood of fighting memories rushed into my mind.

Throw a punch.

work hard.

catch.

There are even some military close-quarters techniques.

Lin Jian'an gasped.

"Can the system also reward skills?"

Moreover, this time it was clearly more professional.

Previously, basic combat techniques only enhanced reaction time.

just now.

These are real-world combat skills.

Especially military boxing.

In this day and age.

That's more than enough.

After all, many people don't even know how to fight properly.

Just then.

There was a sudden knock on the door.

"Jian'an".

"Are you there?"

Lin Jian'an was taken aback.

That sound...

Foolish Pillar?

He went over to open the door.

really.

He Yuzhu was standing at the door.

He was also carrying half a bag of cornmeal in his hand.

However, his face was a little pale.

He is clearly seriously ill.

"Listen to what the rain says."

"You helped her today."

Sha Zhu scratched his head.

His expression was still a bit awkward.

Thanks.

Done.

Hand over the cornmeal.

"There's nothing good at home."

"Take this."

Lin Jian'an did not answer.

"Keep it for yourself."

"Aren't you sick?"

Sha Zhu's eyes widened immediately upon hearing this.

"Illness is nothing!"

"Dude, you're in great health!"

But no sooner had he finished speaking than...

Then I started coughing.

His face turned red from coughing.

Lin Jian'an found it hilarious.

That stubborn habit.

It existed when I was young.

"Come in."

"Let me show you."
